forza horizon (xbox only) leaderborad is at 550k

thats just not a good source to estimate sales.

its only good for wild guesses. so yes, diveclub is probably at 300k sales already

I'm hoping it does well and seeks well over the holiday period. I haven't enjoyed a pure racer like this in a very longtime.

I'm hoping they add more types of events. I really enjoyed the overtaking events on PGR where you had to overtake a set number of cars within a certain time and any extra would give you bonus kudos.

The new track they are adding, do we know if it will be a variation of an existing track or a new track entirely?

You.  Ok whats up with your posts ? cant you space things properly.  Also i see you always have to argue everything agianst PS4 and its games, a pattern but ohh well.  To the point.

LBP will do easy 4/5 million so no not more then that.  As far as the rest starting with Killzone it was average FPS which was at 2.1 million back in Feb so all things point it has a good chance to pass 3million Lt so to say ill sale more the Killzone is just you pretanding you know what it will sale LT to suit your argument and lets face it you dont know what it will sale. Infamous while great its a 8 hour game and that is it, little reason to keep playing it it being out sold would be no big deal.  TLOUr will out sale DC, have a feeling it will do great over the holidays.

Some basic reasoning why it will sale that.

1 - PS4 is a sales beast and the people have to play something.  

2 - DC is the only racer on PS4 since the really really bad multi platform NFS and will be till The crew arrives on dec 4.  That is near 2 months of unopposed racer sales.  

3 - For all its faults and the comical server issues, its still actually really good.  

3.1 new it cost only 49.99 on psn if you have Plus.   

We also have amazon and it was surprisingly high on many of the heavly pro PS4 euro marlets.  Only way it fails to sale what i said is if they cant fix the server issues before the holidays rush.  

no i cant.  its this f*cking bad coded site, that automatically make a free row, if i tab enter. (http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6766503 other guy, same issue)

lbp will easily do 4/5m? on ps4 alone? in just 1.5 month?

because u talked about 3m until end of xmas

that just wont happen. this game can be happy when it reach 1m lifetime. not even 2m is possible

sometime vgc is so funny. sunset overdrive will not even sell 500k lifetime, but driveclub 3m just in 2014.

so even the worst games will sell gangbusters just because they are on playstaion 4 these days?

uhuh yet none other have said issue.

With digital, yes.  Id say you are more funny.  

Sunset is on a console with less then half the user base and one that is flooded with shooters and is entering the market sandwiched between far far bigger shooters.  Sunsets likely low sales are easily explained.

DC lacks competition, and has no PS exclusive racer competition.  DC has alot of favorable conditions going for it, its sales will have little to do with its game greatness.  Its all has to do with its on PS4 and its a racer a genre lacking on the console.  Two of its biggest and only competitiors were delayed.  

Plenty mediocre games sold well o PS2 for no other reason then they were on PS2, massiver user base helps.  

I think DC is doing pretty well.

The game has great word of mouth (from those that have played it) and it seems to have gotten a lot more busy over the weekend. I'm dropping down the leader board at great speed instead of climbing like last week, and despite Evolution claiming servers should be accepting a lot more players, it has gotten worse again for me this week.

No free PS+ version and a good discount on digital ($50 vs $70 here) probably help as well. Although I think those who bought it instead of waiting would have converted to the full version anyway.

It's been a long time since a good track based racer and no other racers this fall (seems the crew is delayed?). Anyway those who buy it won't be disappointed. Just wish people would wait a bit before buying so I can get the online trophies :p

I think all this mistakes with the launch damage the sales for this and their next game. Opinions... Right?

I was going to buy if the ps plus version was good, but now, I will only buy this if they really can turn all this around and if they release a complete version with all DLC included.

I've got the overtake accolade and the clean racing accolade. They give you something of a long term goal to race towards. You already get 500 fame for overtaking, it would be nice if there was a bonus for a clean pass, yet I guess -200 for a hit is just as much incentive to do well. Especially since one hit can cost you 1700, 200 for the hit and no 500 clean sector + 1000 clean lap bonus.

Timed runs would be a nice addition for the circular tracks and race tracks. It would also be fun if they added back and forth races, add space for a U-turn at the end of the point to point races. Adds some nice chaos.

Last I read they were working on an extra location to add, so I guess that's another set of tracks. Found it:

As outlined on PlayStation.Blog, Evolution will add 11 new tracks with 23 routes to Driveclub for free following its October release. This will also include an entirely new location. Driveclub is set to initially feature 55 routes over 25 tracks.

Evolution will also release nine free cars for the game, with a new vehicle available every month from October 2014 to June 2015.http://ca.ign.com/articles/2014/09/11/11-free-tracks-coming-to-driveclub-after-launch

Here is an estimate for Driveclub sales http://insiderp.com/drive-club-hits-a-million-outsells-horizon-2-2-1-.html

Many users on this site don't trust them but insiderp were the first to announce that PS4 had passed 10 million, at that time vgchartz had undertracked PS4 by 700k.

I think more will buy Driveclub after they have tried the 'free' PS+ edition.

I don't think Driveclub will do that well honestly. So many one star reviews on Amazon all referencing the online issues will put a lot of people off, as will general word of mouth between friends and families etc about the issues. I think the game will get a boost when the PS Plus version releases but apart from that the numbers will be unimpressive. With that and the delay I can't imagine any way Sony has not lost money on this game
