I still have troubles believing this game is a thing sometimes. It's more than I could ever ask for in a rally game. You might wanna add the state of the FFB in the OP. Currently they've released their first FFB patch which fixes a lot, but it still isn't ideal yet. There's a mod floating around that makes the patch even better supposedly.

The "maybe" mean literally that. You might get some air if you're going fast enough. Reminder that they're not technically pacenotes, which are personalized for the car/driver/condition/etc. Codemasters calls them "routenotes" or something and emphasize that they're general notes for the track. Which is where the common complaint of inaccurate calls comes from I think. Jehde fucked around with this message at 01:53 on Jul 5, 2015 |

Pretty sure we knew about the WRX licence from the start. Though I wish they could get the WRC licence too instead of that other mediocre series of games. Pro rally just doesn't feel right without a frenchie named Sebastien in the lead by a full minute. Cool that we got Holjes confirmed along with Lydden Hill now.

They're still using the Dirt 3 engine so they're kinda limited. They did manage to fit Pikes Peak though, which is 20 km.

ERC is fun to watch, makes you feel not so bad at Dirt. WRC is kinda boring because it's always just Sebastien in the lead and everyone driving perfectly. However WRC does get the more spectacular crashes when they do happen. That guy uploads every ERC rally to his channel, albeit sometimes pretty late. Definitely worth subscribing to.

Three-Phase posted:So if this is a rally game, do you have a navigator? Is it human or AI? (I'd have plenty of fun navigating. I think I'd be good I just have this bad habit of mixing up "left" and "right" occasionally.) Also, is there any real-time racing against other players/goons? We're all hoping for co-op rallying but I doubt they'd bother.

bUm posted:Also, they're finally adding Custom Championships to Career so you can earn ducats while not being confined to their difficulty/length scaling system which is awesome because being held to 12-stage events without intentionally lowering standing by abandoning down difficulties is kind of terrible as was being locked to a vehicle class for ~4 hours of driving (to be ~5 with Finland), assuming no restarts. Thank gently caress. This has basically been my only gripe as I move up the ranks. Also the achievements have been added to Steam, detailing the Finland stages as well as the inclusion of a 2000s class. The achievement for the new class, "Friends - Rivals - Champions - Legends", implies that Colin McRae's Ford Focus and Richard Burns' Peugeot 206 are included in that class. Still hard to believe how good this game is turning out to be sometimes. Jehde fucked around with this message at 16:46 on Sep 24, 2015 |

I bet they'll be tight-lipped until release to keep expectations manageable, then after release probably throw in a freebie update before talking about DLC. There's already a lot of ground covered though so I can't imagine a whole lot will come post-release. Edit: Co-op rally DLC pls Codemasters.

Turns out it's Burns' 2001 Impreza, not the 206. Also Codemasters is impressed enough with Dirt Rally that they're going to port it to consoles after it's done.

njsykora posted:- Mouse support in menus! The mouse support was a surprisingly lacking feature for a game that's PC only. Also the hyperthreading is a very welcome addition. I just noticed this issue last night as I was trying to break my personal Pikes Peak record, the hitching made it pretty difficult in spots. My personal record is 9:11, set in Dirt 1, I managed a 9:13 in Dirt Rally but there were a couple notable gently caress ups. I'll try again after I get bored of running Finland non-stop. Edit: There's no clickable 'OK' or 'cancel' buttons in the menu so you can't use the mouse entirely.

Qmass posted:If you didn't see this coming then I have some beans to sell you... We've all seen it coming for awhile, it is just the Dirt 3 engine after all. They've only recently started "confirming" it in Q&As though. bUm posted:Decided to give Custom Championship a try last night, after fully upgrading the Opel Kadett and Ford Escort, since one event (Wales) didn't quite fully upgrade the Fiat (last 70's car to upgrade). I think the custom championships are a nice compromise. If you want to drive a specific stage you can still just create a custom event however you want. You can also just abandon a custom championship if it's not what you want, they don't affect your ranked season placing at all so it's safe to just DNF it. The custom championship is there to add a way to still progress, albeit with a bit less earnings, while playing in however big of chunks you want. It would be kinda dumb to let you drive just any stage and make just as much money for doing so. The real money is in the full ranked championships, especially hillclimb and rallycross.

If you guys don't post your Codemasters name then I won't know which to remove from the chopping block. You also don't need to post if your name isn't in the list. I'll keep the list up for a couple days and remove any names from the list that are posted here, after that I'll just remove the remainder from the league. Don't worry too much if you didn't post in time and get axed, with free space in the league it should be easy enough just to join again. I'll try and keep atleast some room in the league to join from now on.

Modding cars and tracks into the game is entirely possible, it's just unlikely that the mods would be anywhere near the quality of the stock content. A lot of detail goes into these cars and tracks and it would be really hard for a modder to replicate that. i.e. There's no way that Charger mod has any damage modeling, and is likely lacking an interior.

Skwee posted:Wait, so what exactly do I do? I create a custom championship, but can't change the difficulty, it just says open on the bottom and it is greyed out. Difficulties for custom champsionships are unlocked as you progress through the normal career championships, so it's probably best to get as deep as you can into that first to maximize your potential gains. Abandon the first run and go for it in the second run. If you do alright then you get a full no restart bonus. If you really mess up you can just dock a bit from the bonus and try again. It's just a weird thing of abandoning the second round counting as a restart for some reason. The 3 minutes is for each event, you are rewarded upon completion of an event in a championship. It's just for some reason the concurrent event count maximizes the multiplier. It's fairly unlikely you'll get the full course, and rather just repeat one of the sections 4 times.

RBR is cool and good but Dirt Rally has made it obsolete. You can mod it up quite a bit to make it feel not so ancient, but why bother when Dirt Rally does it better anyways.
