Udviklerne er klar over problemet og fortæller herudover, at der ikke er noget at gøre for spillerne, som i desperation har prøvet forskellige løsninger, såsom at geninstallere spillet:
We are aware however that many players are receiving an error message indicating 'there is a fault with your internet connection' and we are investigating what appears to be a wider server issue behind this problem.
It's not affecting everybody and the game will keep trying to connect to the server automatically, so you don't need to do anything with the game (like re-install or restart over and over) to establish connectivity.
Foruden serverproblemerne melder flere brugere, at PlayStation Plus udgaven af spillet ikke er udkommet som planlagt. Driveclub PlayStation Plus Edition skulle efter planen udkomme i dag i Europa.
