Dirt 3 now on Steam

I love this game. Vast improvements in MP, loving the hardcore mode. Just.. fun to play, pretty game. Trailblazer makes me :) :) :D
 
^^ Left everything at default. should i change?

Ok here is some gameplay in the snow at nigh t. It is a poor drive but i never used that track before. Its so hard to see in the dark! and as you can see my control was not the best in the snow :D



and also the video from before, rain in finland in a group B rally

Well..... Mine wont save the game.... It saves the settings in the Benchmarks and hardware folders. But not the save game.... Seen a few on the CM and Steam forums having the same issue.

Seems to be because my doc are not at C/users/docs, they are on a separate drive.

Though dirt 2 can cope with this, in fact the only game other than D3 that didn't like it was TDU2....

Anyone know of a fix? :/

Win7 x64 & Steam copy BTW.

Looks amazing, I've got uni exams on atm so I've decided I'll be buying it at the end of next week now, but soo tempted to buy myself a wheel as well to complete the package
 
decided to take the chance i will like this like i did with dirt2 after seeing some of the HD vids , just got to wait for it to download now @1.2mb . going to take hours :(

dirt 2 benchmark

it seems lots of people are experiencing ridiculously bad graphics on this game.

i think it plays well, but its not worth the money for the reduction in atmosphere, it handles a bit more realistically but it just looks and feels last gen.


really disappointed
 
Have a word mate, almost DIrt1 graphics just lol. They have made the graphics more realistic without going OTT on the bloom and effects that Dirt2 had. And reduction of atmosphere? Are you telling me you liked all that yank x games rubbish that evreyone complained about?

Dirt 3 is such a step up from the last game

P.S posting a screenshot from Dirt 2 in a replay is just stupid. The replays are always massivley upscalled and post processed. The replays in Dirt 3 look just as good
 
Me and MrElve just had the most fun ever! :eek:

Been playing online all night, Went from Tig, Hide and Seek, See who had the most damaged car, See who can knock down the tree, see who can knock down the electric pole. Brilliant fun, Most fun was Tig though spent ages playing that!

Your not alone some people think it looks great but to me apart from the Cars & some other FX like Lensflare/Bloom all in DX11 the rest of the game is stuck in DX9 & it makes the DX11 additions stand out even more the game does not look worse than Dirt2 but no better really & cannot believe they recycled some tracks or entire sections out of Dirt2 + F1 2010 really cheapskate of Codemasters but the game was made in around a year so obviously it was just Dirt2.5 really which is all it is as for the MP its as bad as ever people cheating with scripts (all they have to do is edit unprotected files for the games vehicle attributes to become unbeatable!!) for some magic turbo boost so they gain several seconds by the first corner & or using other cheats then the usual crash into you crowd if you are infront you get rammed from behind & forced into a spin end up last & thats the end of the race for you etc etc

Its a letdown there is no progression from Dirt2 its just more of the same without the ridiculous front end menu but now the ridiculous audio intro's to almost everything else :eek:

Best way to describe Dirt3 its Dirt2.5 for the mainstream console gamer/younger player.
 
I prefer recording using FRAPS rather than the built in Youtube Uploader. I must say the video replay at 2:40 here looks beautiful ....


BTW ... at 3:28 i still don't know if it's a glitch grrrr ....

in dirt2 the screen flashed for me in the replays every now and then but i also get that in dirt3 , maybe it is the same but bugged in this game . makes me think something is wrong with my gtx480 which is less than 3 weeks old lol

This may help you http://gamecrashfixed.com/2011/05/f...p-ctd-stuttering-poor-framerates-blackscreen/

I won't be getting this game till the bugs are fixed. Then I will get it second hand.
