Forums - Gaming - DriveClub vs Horizon 2

Spade on 09 October 2014

Put about 35-40 hours in FH 2 so far, has been my second favorite game of the year so far. Pretty casual racing/driving fan though.

I guess he missed the part about FH2's focus on mainly being FUN to play :).


Driveclub is a blast to play.  Great handling AI and sense of speed.  Could car less about reviews whining it is not another dull open world game.  The racing is great period. Content could be better but they have a steady post launch release schedule.

An opinion piece of two games by an actual car nut and some one who owns both, not just claim so.

 

Graphics its DC realism to FH2 over saturated im not sure what to call it.  Preferance wins out here.  Both are good thats it.  

Gameplay, its pure racing vs screwing around half the time.  Actual racing is weak in H2 while DC can be great to one nerve away from the DS4 flying at the wall.   Hope i miss the tv but god damn it can piss me of.  Overall some tracks and racing in DC really can wow, dont get that in H2 but neither do i hulk out in anger.  

Handling, both are fake unrealistc.  DC is a hybrid sim/arcade H2 seems to have taken Frozas engine and dumbed it down considerably.  What these two games show in game is damn unrealistic and impossibel in real life.   DC braking is not right and to much grip to H2s LOL 100 + mph on dirt in sports car is really commical.  

Content wise both get boring fast, tracks / world seems the same after a bit.  Cars dont overly feel different.  Boiles down to trying to run a lap faster in DC to just screwing around doing non racing shit in H2 after a bit.

Ui seems clean in both, but DC is dry as hell no soul while H2 is cringe worthy stereotypical douche dude bro commentary since the opening movie starts.  My god i hate it the narrator and annoying comments.  Ill take DC dryness over that.  

Conslusion, two wayyyyyyy different games that feature cars.  Both just time killers till Gran Turismo decides to show up.  DC is unfinshed and needes content that should have been there from day one, H2 feels like a 30 dollar expension for Forza that they decided to charge you full pricer for.  I got bored of F5, H2 suffer from beign to much like it and i quickly got bored in it to.  DC im losing patience with fast.  Want weather to truly see how good it can be, payed 50 for DC and 40 for H2 so vlaue wise cant complain.

If you want actual racing get DC, if you want options and like screwing aroound get H2.  Neither is a pinnecle of racing gmae of any kind.  Both are fun when taken for what they are.

ps - WTF the jaggies why cant they rid of those damn things.  Is a streight clean line really that god damn hard to pull of.  Both have it and its annoying as hell.

The ui has no soul wtf does that even mean?  People reaching don't things to criticize these days.  How does a ui have a soul.  Who cares it is a ui.

Its dry and boring thats what.

Whole games lack pourpose and is dry and boring, you run events for little reason other then theres nothing else to do in it.  You earn what feels as no rewards their is little motivation to go further.

Let's leave this topic alone, I think the overall consensus is that Forza Horizon 2 is the better game.

Jaggies? Wtf, Horizon has been one of the cleanest games I ever played. Sure you played it?

let pretand thast a nice clean line right.  

Not sure where you got that pick from but the car does not look anywhere as bad in the actual game.  Even in GT6 the same Supra doesn't look that bad execpt for in the replay mode where it is one of the worst looking standard cars in the game.  The Supra is one of the best looking cars in Horzion 2 they even did a great job with the active front spoiler which can be seen extented in this pic.

yahh it does as its from the actual damn game, but who else but you would deny reality and defend forza.

That white pic is an awesome bullshot.

I think you must have a really lousy TV set if the game ever actually looks that bad.



BeElite on 09 October 2014

Its not the supra thats the issue, all cars have bad anti lising.  To much like a last gen game.  DC might be worse in this regard.  H2 art style save its ass quite well.
