Aren't Evo based in the UK?

Late Afternoon GMT would be right about now if they are...

 

[Wavering Radiant]

so do we know where it'll be uploaded? (Gamersyde?)

 

[mangochutney]

I know but

Yeah I think that was a slip of the tongue. Ain't nobody working on that GMT. I reckon he just wanted to clarify he was on about UK time.

 

[travisbickle]

I know but

Shoot, he must be a pro-Euro, lefty, PC, liberal using GMT! I'm off to bed.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

DC website/PS Blog.

Gamersyde would be a nice bonus.

 

[bombshell]

Heh. Perhaps I should have worded that better. I meant non shit footage.

I know what you meant, just messing with you. I'm desperately awaiting the non shit footage too.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

BOMBSHELL!!!!

5.32pm and still nothing.

Hurry the hell up, Evo.

 

[orioto]

In those days and age, the difficulty someone like Sony has to upload a fucking vid of their game that shows its graphic quality, is sincerely depressing.

 

[Saberus]

I believe they have to wait till a certain time because of an agreement with ign.

What is more depressing is the fact that the studio does´nt have the proper people to keep up with the media demand. Seriously, where´s the video team?

[EGOMON]

Are they here yet?

Edit: ^ lol so cute

 

[GribbleGrunger]

So late afternoon is rapidly approaching evening and still nothing! Will things ever change?

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Why they decided to enter into an agreement with IGN, I'll never know.

Hah, that's fantastic. I can see myself using this quite a bit during E3.

 

[kriskrosbbk]

Who is that kid Chris anyway?

 

[commedieu]

Hmm.

 

[Nightengale]

Who is that kid Chris anyway?

Chris Brown.
Product Manager at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.
In charge of Driveclub.

Well that explains everything. He's managing everything from a jail cell.

[DieEnteWurzel]

I was quite excited seeing this thread bumped today, sadly still no HQ :[

evo plz

 

[Boudica]

Haha I can't stop laughing.

 

[Insane Metal]

I'm leaving home for work in less than an hour.

COME ON EVOLUTION

 

[Spongebob]

It's already past 6pm GMT....

Well that explains everything. He's managing everything from a jail cell.

lmao

 

[Gestault]

I just realized my work computer won't be fast enough to run the full-resolution videos we're supposed to be getting...

 

[Marc]

They have looked at the high quality footage and seen too many flaws, so they are adding a year to the development time.

You'll love it when it comes out though, details to follow... soon.

 

[Wavering Radiant]

nvm.

didnt read the "work computer" part. stupid me..

I think he needs to use his work computer because he is at work

yeah kinda makes sense xD

 

[viveks86]

If you have a PS3/Xbox 360 you can always play it on one of them

I think he needs to use his work computer because he is at work

 

[TrojanBlade]

The handling of releasing good quality DC videos has been really amateur PR work. Does it take that many tries to get out the HQ videos to the press and public by a big company? Come on Sony/Evo this is just like some jr high school kids at work.

Yeah, I don't see what the problem is.

These guys are part of a high profile mega-corporation and they cannot get this done quickly?

What gives?

This isn't a complicated process.

 

[ICPEE]

Would be nice if Evolution threw in a bonus HD vid of the snowy mountain track they briefly showed a few months ago

High quality pre-release videos are a rarity for any game. A month before PS4 and XB1 launched, all we had were off-screen shaky cam videos and that was for games a month out from release. It's one of the many problems I have with the pre-release trickle of information we get in gaming.

 

[Shin-Ra]

Unfortunately giving IGN timed-exclusive media is probably very good for exposing your game.

 

[Always-honest]

Maybe if they hire a guy who knows how to upload videos in the best possible quality....
My mom will do that better. She's looking for a job IGN.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

This is getting ridiculous. It's almost as if they don't want Driveclub to do well.

 

[mangochutney]

You answered your own question.

 

[Loudninja]

Seriously?

 

[Fenderputty]

Ummm where's my Monday morning vid?

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Seriously?

Yes, seriously (in a manner of speaking)

I'm sure you've been follow the development of this game and I'm sure you can agree that it's been less than smooth running. Now is the time to oil those tracks and get the hype train moving again, but oh no, must still delay the trailer we promised this 'late afternoon'.

They've had ALL weekend to do this.

Trailer? Highres. Gameplay videos, right?

 

[fasTRapid]

Heh.

It's 18 o'clock now GMT, so technically is it evening yet?

 

[GribbleGrunger]

It's not just this though is it.

 

[Yaser Tech]

Heh.

It's 18 o'clock now GMT, so technically is it evening yet?

Well, I can see the sun clearly

 

[blastprocessor]

Where's the footage? Are they uploading it with a 56K modem?

 

[NullPointer]

Just extrapolate the overage from "early 2014" to the actual DriveClub release date announcement, transmogrify that timespan into minutes and then add that sum to "late afternoon".

Voila. #DriveClubTime.

I would do it myself but my belief system forbids the use of such dark maths.

 

[Footos22]

Well, I can see the sun clearly

It's actually 19:00. You ain't getting shit today.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Heh.

It's 18 o'clock now GMT, so technically is it evening yet?

It's 19:00 here and that's NOT late afternoon. I hope Gamesyde get hold of it!

 

[MidBoss]

They hate working weekends? I know I do.

I get "ERROR: Soon" what should I do?
