The first rule about Driveclub: you do not talk about Driveclub....We kid, we kid.Driveclub (usually stylized as #DRIVECLUB) is a 2014 Racing Game developed by Evolution Studios and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 4. The main focus of this game is the connected social experience in clubs formed of six people and creating challenges used to earn Fame (think of Kudos) on circuits based on locations from around the world, including Canada, Norway, Chile, Scotland, India and Japan. Think of OutRun meets Battle Gear and you'll have a bit of an idea of what it's all about.While the game was released on October 7th, 2014, it was meant to be released on the console's launch day. It got delayed to have some of its features perfected, and was subsequently released almost one year later. A Playstation Plus Edition was announced, but the game's servers ran into stability issues on launch, breaking the online features and causing the PS Plus version to be postponed until they get more stabilized, along with an in-game app. Due to this, the first car pack was given free as a compensation for the disastrous launch, and the upgrade to PS Plus version on the Store has been discounted by half. The PS+ version eventually launched on June 25th 2015, and feature-wise is the full game, but content-wise it only has India tracks, 15 cars and the Startline tour. note An interesting thing of this version is that the Season Pass or paid DLC content is completely playable even if you didn't pay the upgrade. However, to play non-Indian tracks in non-tour mode you must upgrade.However, Evolution has been supporting the game giving them each month free updates with new features ranging from dynamic weather to replays to new multiplayer modes, more tracks and free cars (sometimes more than one) with monthly updates. In addition, a Season Pass is being sold which delivers each month new liveries, two event packs and five (four if it is a Lamborghini pack) new cars until the end of July. The last DLC pack was launched on March 22nd, 2016, on the exact same day Evolution Studios was shut down, although a VR version was in the works with new circuits: those made it for free in the base game in an update in late 2016, with that update and VR being the very last projects Evo has worked so far... under that name. Codemasters would buy the studio a month after its shutdown, rebranding it as Codemasters Cheshire and developing Onrush and Dirt 5.A standalonenote If you have the base game, it's cheaper and is integrated in the main game Expansion Pack, titled Driveclub Bikes, was released on October 27, 2015 - 20 days late of the game's first anniversary. As announced by Sony on March 30, 2019, Driveclub and all its DLC were removed from purchase on PlayStation Network on August 31, 2019, and the game's servers went offline on March 31, 2020. | |

| Driveclub (Video Game) / int_127fc252 | comment |
Creator Cameo: The Wombat Typhoon note released on April's Fools Day 2015 is the iconic buggy from Evolution's previous racing series, Motorstorm. Because of this it's classified under a Bonus tier, and it has a traditional Nitro Boost, unlike the cars that have KERS (sadly, it won't explode if depleted). | |

David Versus Goliath | |
| Driveclub (Video Game) / int_1b3b48f3 | comment |
David Versus Goliath: The Unite In Speed tour in a nutshell. And you are the David to the opponents' Goliath; it gets especially egregious in the final event, the "Unite In Speed Trophy", where you drive the Ferrari 458 Italia against other and vastly better Prancing Ponies (such as the Enzo and the LaFerrari). Luckily, the opponents tend to be Unskilled, but Strong. | |

The Rival: Meta example: Driveclub is this to some Need for Speed games and Forza Horizon 2, except There Are No Police like in the former's games and it's not open world like in the latter game and other NFS games. Evolution Studios has stated that the game is meant to go against GRID's style of racing. | |

Japan Takes Over the World | |
| Driveclub (Video Game) / int_31e92640 | comment |
This averted the Japan Takes Over the World trope: PlayStation 4 being a Japanese console, and five Japanese-inspired tracks available for download, yet only three Japanese cars (Thank you Nissan!) made their appearance. Then the Bikes added Yamaha, Honda, Kawasaki and Suzuki to the Japanese manufacturer list. | |

Lethal Joke Character: The Renault Twin'run Conceptnote essentially a prototype mid-engined Renault Twingo III looks more like a Hot Hatch than a Super: however, it has huge amounts of grip on corners, and on the right hands can win anyone online, especially on the smaller tracks such as Los Pelambres and Yedapalli - where it even holds world records. | |

A Taste of Power | |
| Driveclub (Video Game) / int_43bda213 | comment |
A Taste of Power: The first thing you'll do is race the Mercedes-AMG GT (A Performance car) in Sentraltind, and then you are demoted to Hot Hatches until the first cup. Subverted for the Bikes expansion instead, as your first race will be in the Asagiri Highland Raceway (Variant 3) on the KTM RC8 R, which is the bike you'll start off with. The Startline Tour is meant for those who are on the fence about buying the season pass or PS Plus edition players. In short, it's a tour featuring some of the events on the DLCs, but limited to just one car note Which you can also try if you don't have the packs or haven't unlocked yet, such as the Renault Alpine A110-50. | |

With Nitro Boost. Subverted with LaFerrari, FXX K, Peugeot Onyx and Icona Vulcano: They are hybrids on their own, but the driver can't control the electric engines unlike the last two. | |

Slippy-Slidey Ice World: Zig-zagged with the Norway racetracks. While some of them play this trope completely straight (e.g. Sentraltind, Hurrungane), others instead subvert (e.g. Holmastad, Atlanterhavsvegen) or avert the trope entirely (e.g. Skjolden, Sognefjord Raceway). | |

Nintendo Hard: Averted. The game, for the most part, is quite punishing to errors, but it's not even nearly as difficult as Evolution's previous game, and that really says something. Special mention goes, however, to Legendary difficulty. Also, combine it with Hyper class, weather and night if you want a Harder Than Hard approach. | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
| Driveclub (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: The Ariel Atom V8 and any hybrid for different reasons: the Atom has the best acceleration of its class, but it has a tendency to oversteer. Hybrids, on the other way, have one (or two) extra buttons to be pressed if you want to get the best out of your races or time trials. The Hennessey Venom GT also falls into this trope: being an absurdly fast and tail-happy vehicle, it is very difficult to handle for most drivers the first few times. If one can control its oversteering tendencies, it can easily set record times and net you huge amounts of Fame. | |

First-Person Snapshooter: Clicking the right side of the touchpad (R3 for wheel users) enters you in Photo Mode, where you can use the in-game camera like a DSLR one to set aperture, focal distance, frames, bokeh type or an array of filters such as Action, Blockbuster, Driveclub, Ink or Last gen. To take pictures you must hide the UI and press the Share button, as many other games have done. | |

Driver and Club level: Up to 120 for the former and 100 for the latter, and they are required to obtain liveries, cars and logos for clubs. A recent update has upped the ante for Driver levels by introducing Elite Levels, starting with Level 60, where leveling up is not done only through collecting Fame, but also by beating certain objectives such as having enough Tour Stars or beating a lap time on a certain circuit in a certain car. | |

Creator Provincialism | |
| Driveclub (Video Game) / int_d68c925d | comment |
Creator Provincialism: While Gran Turismo focuses on Japanese cars and Forza Motorsport on American cars, Driveclub relies almost exclusively of European cars, especially exotics: the exceptions are the Venom GT, Viper, Charger, Challenger, Camaro and Corvettes C6 & C7 (USA), Nissan GT-Rs and 370Z Nismo, Honda Civic Type-R (Japan), W Motors Lykan Hypersport (Lebanon), VUHL 05 (Mexico), Icona Vulcano (China) and Marussia B2 (well... Russia). This averted the Japan Takes Over the World trope: PlayStation 4 being a Japanese console, and five Japanese-inspired tracks available for download, yet only three Japanese cars (Thank you Nissan!) made their appearance. Then the Bikes added Yamaha, Honda, Kawasaki and Suzuki to the Japanese manufacturer list. | |

Reconstruction | |
| Driveclub (Video Game) / int_e50987a9 | comment |
Reconstruction: Of the old-school, Fifth-gen inspired racing game scene, gets completely rid of most of the unnecessary elements in modern racing games (such as rewinding, excuse plots, tutorials, tuning, etc) and blends in online interactions to make a game based on pure, skill-based racing. | |

Obvious Beta: The base game. While it was functional, it was missing features such as Photo mode, weather (although Evo stated it would be released as a patch) and Replay mode. These got into the game as free updates. | |

Downloadable Content: Game modes, tracks, a free car and features are included in free updates each month, but cars, events and liveries can be bought standalone or in a Season Pass. Averted with microtransactions: they were once introduced to unlock cars before reaching their level, but fans criticized it and it got removed in the final game. Subverted with LaFerrari and Renault Sport R.S. 01, which can be unlocked by reaching level 5+ on the Ferrari Accolade and reaching level 66 respectively, or by paying 3.60€ for the former and 1.50€ for the latter. | |

Shown Their Work: The obsession of detail on this game is insane: each environment has its own fauna and flora; clouds, weather and damage are procedurally generated, developers have tried to replicate most of the features of their cars and they even used data from the NASA to map the night sky!
