2 free tours available today too. One for cars & one for bikes. I've just finished the car one, really easy. Not tried the bike one but I'll probably struggle. I just can't use the bikes at all.

Liking the new club paint job Yuffie 👍🏻
The paint job was meant to be my own one but I forgot that the first one was the club paint job. I was too lazy to change it again so it's now our club one.

Yeah, it's just the normal season. I though it was the new one for bikes that was only £5. The bike one's not available yet.

£5 for the season pass though is incredible value!!! You basically double your game content. I f anyone still hasn't bought the season pass, there's really no excuse now
Yup, a fiver is a steal for it. I bought it a couple of weeks ago for €15 and even at that it's well worth it.

Still cheaper to get the digital version - Full PS Plus Edition with Season Pass - £15.99

Tempted to get the £11.99 standard version to see if I like it though...

Just bought DriveClub today. It was a toss up between this and Project Cars ( not much of a choice out there). After the looooong update I have finally had a couple of races and liking it so far. Graphics are really good.

There is a free version I downloaded some time ago... if I buy the season pass, will this somehow open it up to the full game, or do I need to buy the £15.99 bundle?

You need the 15.99 bundle. The season pass won't work with the ps+ edition.


Driving wheels were on Amazons lightning deals today. I was going to pick the Thrustmaster T80 up for this but decided not to. Could have been fun.

Have to correct you there. You can use the Season Pass with just the free version of the game, giving you access to all the Season Pass content.

Quite a strange one ff. The plus version only came with India but some of the season pass uses other country events. Are you saying buying season pass on top of plus version then opens up the other countries? A sort of loophole to buying full game ?

Oops, my bad.

But as aforementioned, that seems quite strange!

I think season pass with PS+ version gives you access to other locations in the dlc tours, but not access to play locations other than India in single event, multiplayer, or challenges.

I think!

That's basically it. You'd miss out on loads of car unlocks as well - the ones in the pass would be included though.

In addition, the new All Stars DLC is free to everyone - you can race in all 6 locations with 10 season pass cars regardless of which version of the game you own.

Full game is due to go on sale today. (should have done already, but there's a issue on the PS Store)

Only seen Euro prices, but it should be somewhere in the region of £10 for the full game and £8 for PS+ upgrade once it goes live.

Really got back into the game the last couple of weeks and working through the expansions trying to get all stars. 834/1035 currently.

One thing that bugged me was I finally won a solo challenge on a drift event and the trophy didn't pop. I wouldn't mind but I put a LOT of effort into it. Usually I send them out and either nobody bothers to complete them, or somebody will beat my score/time right near the end of the window so I don't have chance to respond usually.

If you've got two accounts you can always send a challenge to your second account and get the trophy that way. I've got back into the game with the bikes.

Thanks for the tip, but just the one account. I'd rather get it legitimately, but just seems impossible at the moment. Especially as none of my close friends are playing it. Must have sent one out to about 80 randomers last night and not one person even had a go!

Send your challenges to me and I'll give them a go tonight. You need to win 5 of your own solo challenges (i.e. make sure you're not sending club challenges) for the 'Unbeatable' trophy. (and I think it's just one for the 'Contender' trophy).

If you send me 5 I'll try them all.

I did give it a decent try. I might have managed to beat your score with a bit more time, but it was a bit hit and miss on a couple of the drifts. I had some spectacular rolls on the middle drift section though!

No problem. If you need similar help with the Unbeatable trophy let me know.

I've got a similar issue. I upgraded to a 1tb recently, and forgot to download my game save before going back in to the game. ( yeah, I know, stupid).

So my profile says I've got 1035, but the tour shows none, and my bike stars haven't been added to my profile total. ( technically I should have 1197 ). It's not a problem at the moment, but it might be in some of the later elite levels, will depend how high they go.

Lol - fancy a race to get all the stars ?
Grr. As expected, I'm now stuck on Elite level 23, as I don't have enough stars, even though I did earn all of them.

Guess I'll just have to do them all again...

I got to about 450 stars.

The tour is so easy, even the hot lap that's the second last event. Some of them were so hard the first time around.
