Forums - Gaming Discussion - Maybe Evolution should focus on getting Driveclub to work instead of free DLC

We're rapidly approaching the two-month anniversary of Evolution Studios' Driveclub's release. What makes this significant is that the multiplayer component of the game doesn't consistently work. Two. Months. Later. We won't get into the PS Plus version that's been indefinitely backburnered.

But, that didn't stop the developers from announcing free DLC, a peace offering of sorts for the continued server issues. Next week, a set of cars called the Ignition (Remix) Expansion Pack comes out, and it'll be free to all Driveclub owners despite being a "premium" add-on.

Those who purchased a season pass will take solace in knowing that they aren't being cheated (moreso than they already have been), because an extra piece of DLC will release in July 2015 so that they get the amount of content they paid for. Maybe by then Driveclub will actually work.

Jeez, almost 2 months! Like, man, that is crazy! Specially for a Sony Published game!



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

But they already had the DLC ready when they launched.



works pretty wellnow



I agree. Lets not have another BF4 situation where it takes 6 months to fix. I've 240 hours online in BF4 and fuck me was it annoying. Last time I'm ever buying premium for BF despite the Final Stand DLC being epic.

It's the year of dropping the ball on online multiplayer, it seems.

Different parts of the studio are responsible for different things. What would be the point in putting the art guys in the network code department if they don't know what they are doing? Perhaps they could get the cleaner to help as well while they are at it.

Maybe Destructoid should look into how these things actually work instead of writing click-baiting bullshit



Maybe Evolution should buy a time machine and scrap the blueprints for this game and instead do another Motorstorm.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Opinion: They should have focused in the game rather than visuals.

thats semi correct. But they can hire better qaulified coders or more coders instead of paying some artists tho. so destructoid is not completely wrong.

but for 9 years now  gameplay and quality suffers because of visuals...
