More bafflingly, there are no Japanese cars at all. There’s actually only a single American car – the Hennessey Venom GT – and even that’s really just a Texas-built powerplant shipped over to the UK and manhandled into a modified Lotus Exige. They sound exceptional too Gran Turismo could learn a lot from this example.ĭriveclub looks amazing at night.It’s strange that the car list is so heavily biased towards European models, though almost exclusively so, in fact. Even little touches like the custom door-opening sequences, tailored to the configuration of the exterior and interior door handles, go a long way in making these rides feel real in a way racing games rarely manage. Supercars like the Marussia B2 have fully functioning screens for their rear-facing cameras mounted in the centre console in lieu of a rear-view mirror, too, which developer Evolution captured exquisitely. They’re best enjoyed from inside the cabins, where the attention to detail is so extreme that even the windscreens show those subtle semi-circle scuffs on the glass you get from the wipers when the glare of the sun catches them. Driveclub’s car selection is nicely curated to represent some of Europe’s most desirable sports cars, grand tourers, supercars and hypercars, plus a smattering of hot hatches as an entry point. The biggest problem I had with it is that the handling’s too sticky to make the drift events much fun I generally found myself getting bogged down mid-corner because it’s surprisingly difficult to maintain momentum.
I found it satisfying and entirely in line with Driveclub’s direction, even if it’s a fraction simplistic. Even if the back end does step out it generally only takes a smidge of countersteering to correct it. In keeping with the overall arcade sensibilities, even with a bootful of throttle Driveclub’s high-horsepower hypercars spring from the line with only moderate wheelspin, and they seem mostly reluctant to about-face mid-corner in an orgy of oversteer. The 50 cars in Driveclub brake hard and grip like glue, but the driving model is still nuanced enough to let you feel the difference between a bulky Bentley Continental GT and an eager John Cooper Works-tuned Mini.
Play Handling trends towards the arcade side of the spectrum, yet it’s considerably less superficial than something like Burnout.
