When do the ghosts appear ? Is this in single events ?
I'm sure I've only seen ghosts on drifting and thought it was my own ghost.

They don't always appear though. It seems to be hit and miss at times. I was doing the campaign (hot hatch races) when a ghost appeared on track. I think the ghost is the person that's above you in the leader board mate. beat them and it becomes the next person above you and so on. You'll know when you reach Lisa B, she's the one with the rear bumper sticker that reads 'EAT MY DUST'

Yeah the ghosts of others are dependent on how the servers are doing. Last night the servers seemed to be flying - I was getting Lisa's ghost, other peoples ghosts all over the place. today - not so much.

Today it seems pretty bad on the server front. When I did connect it said the club was level one!
Wouldn't fancy working at Evolution atm, plenty overtime on though.
Must be devastating for the devs thats for sure.

Lots of muppets in multiplayer, if you go past people they try to either side swipe you or take your back end out. Winkers!

Thats where private lobbies would be good. We could agree to play clean. Obviously we all lose control now and then or forget about a turn but for the most we can be clean.

Well, after waiting patiently for the ps+ version by playing NFS rivals to death, I finally caved and picked this up today.

Will be having a go tonight, friend requests sent to subcutaneous and homeless.

Any club spaces open?

My nephew's not long bought a PS4 with DC. He's looking for friends and a club to join.

That happened me when DC launched. I crossed the line first but came in 2nd. Bummer.

I spent Sat night/Sun morn chasing ghost cars around the tracks and most, if not all of those belonged to Lisa_B_.

I'm currently replaying the SP campaign trying to beat the times of those on my friends list. I find it more fun/challenging using only the cars allowed, rather than going to Time Trial and choosing one of the fastest cars and trying to beat the times.

I did manage to get the top spot in some races but other were an epic fail but I'm happy if I'm in the top 3 and of course the XP helps push the club further up the leaderboard


*I'm finding the hyper cars a bit of a handful. I end up fish tailing all over the place. I only have 200 out of the 225 stars.

Yeah, I've only just started, but almost every time I look at a leaderboard, Lisa_B_ is at the top, and for most of those I just shake my head and go 'how?' I guess I just need practice.

I take it there's an issue with leaderboards not updating your own times? (or does it just take a while?)

I know there are issues with it, but the driving itself is solid (imo), so hopefully it'll come good.

The whole time it took me to get to level 50, the leaderboards weren't working & I've hardly played it since. Things like the drifting where I'd get 3 stars, it only showed the points I got for getting one star.

considering buying this....does the game support split screen?

if not...anyone know if any driving games exist on PS4 that support that?

(me and the mrs used to love playing Blur on the X360)

I did play the MP (when I could that is) last night, had some hilarious races. Was 4th and the guy coming up behind tried to bash me to my left. I held my spot and he came in for another attempt, it was almost as if I had natural racing instinct for a second or two lol. Seen him going out right then coming in, I hammered the anchors and he flew past the front of me LOL. Ended up spinning and I quickly accelerated, I'm sure I've caught it on recorded gameplay.

There was other races I was being dirty, I know it's not right but I'm an aggressive driver lol.

Had a few attempts at Lisa B's times, ffs, gave up lol.

It can take a while to update the leaderboards and you'll find the ghost cars can help give you faster lap/overall times.
