Driveclub Reviews
However, while it's not as broad in scope as some of its contemporaries, we aren't finding ourselves getting bored of Driveclub. On the contrary, the more time we invest, the more we just want to keep playing. Driveclub is a focused, thrilling racer for players looking to push themselves and compete in all new territory, working up a sweat as its captivating sights and sounds fill your senses.
The PlayStation platform has always hosted tremendous driving games, and Driveclub tries hard to live up to that legacy. The parts that are exceedingly well-polished (gorgeous cars, skill-based driving) make those that trip up (ugly A.I.) all the more disappointing. It sets a high bar for the inevitable competitors to follow, but like an inexperienced driver on a hot lap in a solo challenge, it's sloppy in the turns.
Driveclub is a solid, basic racing game with lots of tracks, lots of cars, and very little in the way of personality.
What we're left with is a flimsy framework - a sort of clothes horse for content - rather than a truly great racing game. DriveClub is patently intended to attract a global, interconnected audience of fiercely competitive racers but, to quote the increasingly obscure 1989 Kevin Costner film Field of Dreams: if you build it, they will come. And, unfortunately, Evolution hasn't quite built it.
A great multiplayer racer, but quite dreary as a single-player game, DriveClub feels like it needed more time in development to polish out its dings and flaws.
Finally the game it promised to be at launch, DriveClub is one of the most exciting racers available on PS4.
Driveclub looks nice and has a couple of good ideas about handling leaderboard challenges, but the core of it--actually driving a car--drags the entire thing down.
The PlayStation 4's exclusive is fun to take for a spin, but we expect its inevitable sequel is the social racing game you're really going to want to play.
A game that should probably have been cancelled rather than delayed, with its complete absence of personality or new ideas.
Despite numerous reasons to support Driveclub purely on concept alone, it takes a turn for the worse when scrutinized under the spotlight. It's unfortunate luck that the game had to release just a few weeks after Forza Horizon 2 which does nearly everything Driveclub does that much better. It may be an unfair comparison considering that this is its inaugural entry, but Driveclub was delayed multiple times and the standard for the hybrid racing genre is high with Burnout, DiRT, and Need for Speed. There's plenty to admire here, though, if you take Driveclub at face value and don't take things too seriously.
Driveclub isn't necessarily the innovative or revolutionary game that we were expecting, but that doesn't make it a bad racer. Far from it. It is a visually impressive game with a clean, straightforward progression system, interesting courses and enough user-friendly social features to keep clubs entertained for the foreseeable future.
Ultimately, DriveClub has been able to hold my attention for a lengthy period of time and will continue to do so as long as it is supported with new content and given that this PlayStation-exclusive is already lined up to come out with new cars, events and customization rewards, as well as free track updates, I should be good for some time to come. So racing fans who are not looking for a sim racer, but are wanting a robust driving game to compete with friends against, should give this one a spin.
DriveClub is a great racing experience which includes enough content, both single-player and social, to keep fans of the genre occupied for months, especially if they are determined to always be better than their friends.
DriveClub isn't a huge leap forward but has smart ideas in its multiplayer
Driveclub isn't a perfect game, but it's most certainly one of the most beautiful (if not the most beautiful) game ever released on consoles, also featuring one of the tightest, most fun and stimulating driving models you'll find on the market. It definitely succeeds where it counts, but it's a bit lacking in the frills department.
در نهایت Driveclub عنوانی جاه طلب با مجموعه ای از عناصری است که همگی در کنار هم با هدف ایجاد یک تحول بزرگ بوجود آمده اند اما این عناصر بدلیل عدم شکل گیری هویت و چارچوبی منحصربفرد نتوانسته اند در کنار هم مجموعه ای قوی را ایجاد کنند و این موضوع باعث شده است که تجربه کلی گیم پلی پس از مدتی حالت منفعل ، تکراری و نه چندان جذاب را به خود گیرد . نکته ناُمیدکننده بازی در نهایت به هدف اصلی آن یعنی ساختمان و چارچوب ایده باشگاه ها بر می گردد که فرسنگ ها از آن چیزی که انتظار می رفت ساده تر و پیش پا آفتاده تر طراحی شده است.Driveclub قرار بود ویژگی های انقلابی را در بخش چند نفره و آنلاین داشته باشد اما با تجربه آن متوجه می شویم این بازی از آن رویاها و اهداف اولیه خود ضعیفتر عمل کرده است . در پایان با تجربه کلی بازی یک سوال نهایی در ذهن بوجود می آید و آن هم اینکه در همایش معرفی Driveclub گفته شد که استودیو Evolution بیش از 9 سال در آرزوی سخت افزاری بود که بتواند ویژگی های تعاملی و اجتماعی Driveclub را پوشش دهد اما با با تجربه بازی این سوال مطرح می شود که براستی این بازی شامل چه ویژگی انقلابی در بخش آنلاین و شبکه اجتماعی بود که کنسول نسل هفتمی PS3 توانایی ارائه آن را نداشت ؟

As you finish the Tour and start to take on more and more challenges, Driveclub starts to show its true colours. It may be difficult for some to adapt to in an age where racers sprawl across open worlds featuring hundreds of cars and tons of tracks, but this is a game with a very singular focus. The overarching goals soon start to peel away, and you're left with the purity of competing against the times and records of friends and rivals, the stunning scenery and the joy of driving cars absolutely on the limit.
DriveClub doesn't revolutionize online play, but offers solid driving and just enough features to keep it engaging
So the ride won't just be exciting, it should be long, too. But right now, those prepared to embrace Driveclub for what it is will find a very accessible, carefully crafted, refreshing speed-over-sim driving experience that often provides fabulous fun.
So, at the end of the day, #DRIVECLUB is a technically proficient racer with a social side that can be fun. But overall it lacks some things that make racing games great, especially ones that insist on arcade style progression. Hardcore racing fans will be pleased by the bevy of cars available and may enjoy creating a club with their friends, but players like me won't be converted due to the lack of customization and/or arcade style gameplay. Despite all its flaws, #DRIVECLUB still manages to deliver a solid racing experience on the PS4, it just wasn't the one I was looking for.
