I had already driven few stages on Sweden and then tried out Monte Carlo... frick man. Driving on snow is fine, but I have 0 grip on the ice. I'm literally driving sideways from corner to corner, just feathering the gas.
A great game to play with some refreshing Red Bull™!
But for real it's an amazing game and nothing has beaten it after all these years. Same thing as with Grand Prix 4 vs the new Codemasters F1 games.
Aren't all the Dirt games apart from the two Dirt Rallys filled with that stuff? I remember hating the Black personlicious gymkhana shit that they tried to shove into the series for three games straight.
>Dont cut
Bitch, I'll cut just because you said that I shouldn't.
Also, >Jump into a six right >Aight I'll just go through the middle, with a little bit lean to the right >Fly straight into fricking piles of logs next to a finnish house

I wish you could make your own pacenotes. I must be driving like a moron, cause some 3 or 4 corners feel like 5-6, then some 5 corners are completely dogshit if you approach it a bit wrong.
I started my career with the Group B 4wd cars. Now everything else feels like shit. I'm driving an event on R5, and sure, it is stable like hell on the corners and on the road, but nothing beats the launch and raw power of the Group B. They sound so good.
Group B rwd on the otherhand, if its raining/ice/snow, I wont be getting anywhere.
Anyone else doing daily missions on Dirt Rally 2.0? I usually hang around the bottom of the highest tier or near the top of the 2nd highest tier, but even that varies a lot. In Group B/rwd categories I seem to do better, but I always lose time in the 4WD categories. I dont have most of the engine upgrades and a lot of the cars feel sluggish without at least level 2 upgrade.
Aerodynamics, you forget peak Group B were boxes with as many spoilers and turbochargers, or superchargers or both slapped on them. God those were amazing times.
Number equals how a corner curves
1 is very sharp, 6 is almost straight road
Don't cut is don't cut a corner because there's shit in the way
Acute corner is a 90° corner or something similar
Hairpin is one of those 180° corners
Jump is, jump
Watersplash is a water obstacle you need to cross
Deceptive means it's a dirty corner and you need to be careful or you'll go off the course
Might be missing something
Losing tires is the absolutely worst mechanic in this game. Like ok I get it, when you lose a tire it's gonna take you some time to repair but losing a fricking minute in a game is just game over. For the gameplay's sake it should be maybe 10 seconds. And terminal damage should not disqualify you from the ENTIRE EVENT.
I don't completely hate 45-90 seconds lost on a wheel/tire because I enjoy the game enough that coming in 10th or lower doesn't eat me up too much but I agree about terminal damage nixing you entirely; I get the game is trying to give you consequence for racing too hard/recklessly but it's a little much
If you think Dirt Rally 1/2 is punishing, RBRHU will just kick you in the ribs over and over. Dirt Rally is really forgiving with Terminal Damage compared to RBRHU. It's pretty normal in RBRHU to see only 30% or less of the field making it to the end of the rally in RBRHU, mostly due how easy it is to instantly wreck the engine in RBRHU compared to the Dirt Rally games.

It is a little weird that you can kick the clutch and bounce off the red line pretty much non-stop with little to no consequence in DR for how plucky it can be about other things
A numeral of 100 refers to a strait away in meters >3 left long into 500 stay middle caution
Would basically mean, power out of the corner, go WOT for ~500 meters, and be incredibly mindful of any roadside hazards.
there's some rare things like 'bad camber' on particularly dangerous turns that have bad camber
Also what do you guys play games with? My PS4 controller left analog shit itself and this controller was like 3-4 months old, fricking upsetting since my first and previous ps4 controller was from the first batch of controllers which I know were somewhat different and lasted years till the X button started getting stuck. So now I'm looking at xbox controllers as well to see if they're better built
>monthly tour coming up >scrape up just enough credits to unlock one of the cars >finally ready to race, stage is monaco >slide right off the 3rd corner into a DNF
Grind enough money to repair your car and keep going. Monthly is about endurance, nobody drives through that shit without some mistakes. DNF is pretty rough, but still
Why the frick did everyone during the 80’s have such a deathwish when it came to rally racing? And I don’t mean the drivers either, people were watching from the fricking middle of the road only to get out at the last second
Don't you ever get that feeling that everything just feels dull? Don't you wish that you could feel alive once more - even if that meant taking immeasurable risks?
pointed out it wasn't just an 80's thing. The only difference is that early motorsports safety was near zero so people could be all over the road in the way to get close ect. If today people could stand right on the side of the road with no barriers and watch their favorite cars zip by at well over 100mph they would also.
I bought the ps4 version of Dirt 4 and the game was forced Portuguese and the dubbing was completely off, with the co-pilot being 2 to 3 turns ahead of where I was. I contacted Codemaster's support and they replied that although the were aware of it they weren't going to fix it. I refunded it and now I make sure to pirate and then seed every new Dirt game 24/7. Frick Codemasters.
>Double caution left three half long into immediate right one long over crest jump maybe don't cut rocks outside
Half the time I can't keep track of what he's saying.
It gives you a really good lesson in how RWD cars handle, but only using it does damper the experience, since it utterly shits over the Mini Cooper S and the Lancia Fulvia in the same class. Using it in the 60s Class is basically picking up free wins, and latter games would put it in the 70s Class instead given how insanely good that car was for its age.
>"When you are out rallying on ice or snow in country like that it is like dancing. From one side to the other side. My dancing background helped my rallying. As soon as I started on gravel I liked it because of that. It was so nice to feel and move the car like that. "
yep, FRICK Monte Carlo, so many total damage results
I had already driven few stages on Sweden and then tried out Monte Carlo... frick man. Driving on snow is fine, but I have 0 grip on the ice. I'm literally driving sideways from corner to corner, just feathering the gas.
*cuts*
SAMIR PLEASE
YOU ARE WRECKING THE CAR
shut up
why is this game literally over 100 gb
because optimization is for homosexuals, moron. just get more hdd space frickin idiot
i do have the space for it but it taking up more space than fh4 is kind of moronic
oh I know, I'm just being flippant. I hate how huge games are now.
Probably uncompressed audio. It adds up pretty quickly.
if they make the game big and annoying to download then you're less likely to uninstall it and play something else
If they make the game big and annoying to download I'll just refund it.
most people won't though, thats why the new modern warfare is 175gb for example. they want you to feel invested and committed to playing the game
or just less likely to ever buy it
highly detailed renders of every part of every car
it's near impossible to play this game good on a keyboard
>zoomers be feeling nostalgic about dirt rally
>not colin mcrae rally 3
cringe
who mentioned nostalgia?
also rbr is better
A great game to play with some refreshing Red Bull™!
But for real it's an amazing game and nothing has beaten it after all these years. Same thing as with Grand Prix 4 vs the new Codemasters F1 games.
unironically the biggest reason I don't care about the new formula games is that the v6 hybrids sound like vacuum cleaners
I wish that I could turn back time.
Jesus Christ, take your meds, my man.
I SAID DON'T CUT
NO, YOU DID NOT!
What Skyrim mod?
>original dirt
>had hill climb
>had rally cross
>had a bunch of different modes
Did any of the other games ever add this shit back in? I fricking love the hill climbs.
Aren't all the Dirt games apart from the two Dirt Rallys filled with that stuff? I remember hating the Black personlicious gymkhana shit that they tried to shove into the series for three games straight.
i think dirt 2.0 had everything but the hill climb stage

dirt rally was alright until they made 2 always online cancer

I have never finished a group B stage
I started my career with the Group B 4wd cars. Now everything else feels like shit. I'm driving an event on R5, and sure, it is stable like hell on the corners and on the road, but nothing beats the launch and raw power of the Group B. They sound so good.
Group B rwd on the otherhand, if its raining/ice/snow, I wont be getting anywhere.
Get a wheel and VR.

Anyone else doing daily missions on Dirt Rally 2.0? I usually hang around the bottom of the highest tier or near the top of the 2nd highest tier, but even that varies a lot.

I dont have most of the engine upgrades and a lot of the cars feel sluggish without at least level 2 upgrade.
LISTEN TO MY CALLS
SAMIR PLEASE
for me it's WRC 4 on the PS2 which i just downloaded to play illegally
based
I have a soft spot for WRC II
>half the power of Group B
>much much faster
How did they do it?
Technology
Technology, group B cars compared to these are crude deathtraps.
Aerodynamics, you forget peak Group B were boxes with as many spoilers and turbochargers, or superchargers or both slapped on them. God those were amazing times.
Someone please decode the rally lingo.

Crest comes to mind.
Also my fav rally game is Richard Burns Rally

Crest means obstacle blocking your view. Into means that almost instantly after. So "Stay right on Crest into 6 left" is just that.
Caution can mean a lot of things. Tight road, obstacles on the side of the road, danger of falling off a cliff etc.
Nice thanks!
DON'T
CUT

I'M GONNA CUUUUUUUUUUUUUT
LEFT 6 DON'T CUT AFTER CREST AFTER JUMP 50 BE BRAVE

Adrenaline
obligatory GROUP B master race
Don't you ever get that feeling that everything just feels dull? Don't you wish that you could feel alive once more - even if that meant taking immeasurable risks?
They still do
to be fair the inside of the turn group are the safest
Like

That and night endurance racing

I played through the entirety of Dirt Rally using only the Alpine A110. Should I not have been doing that?
