DriveClub update and server upgrades rolling out

4.5
Evolution Studios is rolling out a new DriveClub update alongside upgrades designed to improve server performance, clubs and multiplayer functionality.

The 1.04 patch should also fix issues which have resulted in scheduled events disappearing from the event browser and incorrect target times appearing.

The studio said in a Facebook update: "We are also running essential diagnostics periodically to help us continue to improve server performance, which may disrupt online play for you when you get connected. This will be kept to a minimum.

"We're glad that more of you are getting to play online but we are sorry that many players are still having a hard time getting connected. We are working around the clock to improve connectivity and will keep you informed as we continue to make progress."

The PS4 title released in North America last Tuesday, in Europe on Wednesday, and in the UK on Friday, but its servers crumbled under the weight of users attempting to sample its social and multiplayer features.

While it works to fix the problems, Evolution has temporarily disabled some online features and delayed the launch of the scaled-back PlayStation Plus edition of the game, as well as the My DriveClub app.

The studio hasn't ruled out offering compensation to DriveClub owners in order to make up for the game's bungled launch, game director Paul Rustchynsky has said.

Update 1.04:

Implements several game-side Multiplayer improvements to reduce server load.
Fixes scheduled Events from occasionally disappearing from the Event Browser in Multiplayer.
Fixes incorrect target times/scores from appearing in Time Trial and Drift Events.

They should have been like other games and had an open Alpha and Beta to test the servers. Would have been a lot less stressful in the end.
