Dirt Rally 2.0

I know I’ve been moaning about fps dips but in the most recent patch I never once dipped below 60fps even in the towns where it tanked to 30-40 before so they’ve done something!
 
Just had a quick go on Co de Turini Descente and posted fastest time..Not hard, only 3 of us on the leaderboard :D

I'm still claiming it :p
 
Add me on steam if you’d like a 4th I’m the same my leaderboard is sitting at 4 at the moment:eek: be having a shot tonight,

I haven’t looked into the leagues yet but is there an option where you pick tracks and get say like a week or so to post your fastest time then at the end they tally up the league? Seen some racing games offer that, could be an OCUK league.

Is Monaco much different graphically to dirt 1?

Honestly without a back to back run (would require installing the original) I couldnt tell you. Does look pretty though.

Ok quickly installed and set up with same settings and same car, with only difference being the driving position.

DR 2.0

Has a fresher wintery feel, with top part feeling a lot icier. Easier to define between ice and snow, not that it was hugely difficult on the original. Textures and trackside models are all miles better.

Many thanks for taking the time! I suppose I should upgrade now!
 
stunning ! thats all i can say. it aint no touch up looks amazing but man its ******* hard ! :D

just uploading my evo run. the ice is god damn ice this makes dark souls look easy :p

 
The Evo is just so much fun round the Col! The ice takes no prisoners, absolutely brutal at pace.:eek:
Starting to get the hang of it now, not setting any remarkable times but I am getting through the stage without barrelling over a cliff, the odd tap of the rear end on a snow drift but its definitely coming along. Struggling with GpB cars on it though.

So glad Monaco is in now. If they do the rest of the locations to the same quality I'll be more than happy and the deluxe pack will have been completely worth it.
 
group b the audi and the lancia are probably the quickest with the lancia fastest probably overall. the audi is fun but its big and heavy so on ice its like a big butter barge. :D
 
Did some more testing last night and My FPS is rock solid never dipping below 60 at 4K ultra with crowd and shadows on medium. Tbh gpu (2070) is between 75-85% most of the time.

Seems to have been some big stability improvements in the engine. Finally I can focus on posting some crap times now rather than worrying about frame dips;)

Monte Carlo feels great and looks very pretty, ice is brutal:D We have 7 countries now, I hope they continue with the quality and add more locations even beyond S2, I'd support that.

Wonder how WRC8 will fare, it comes with 14 locations as standard and has dynamic weather so it fixes my two biggest gripes with Rally 2.0. If they can polish the driving, I think it can compete with this respectably. WRC7 was enjoyable and pretty fun to drive but Rally 2.0 is definitely better in this regard. The stages in 8 already look better than what we have here, though. Oh well, never enough rally games:p

You could tell the improvement from WRC6 to WRC7 lets hope they keep it up with WRC8.:)
 
I didnt really get on with WRC7, yes it was a big improvement over the previous iterations, and was probably the first of the series to be a genuine contender with Dirt rally. I still found it shared the same issue as the earlier titles, the handling and general feel of the game just feels wooden and soulless, it does look pretty and sounds are impressive though.
Like a sucker i'll probably buy 8 when its going for a reasonable price. I guess we'll see...
 
Finally getting a shot, looks amazing and the graphics are stunning hopefully they keep it up through all the patches/updates. Just skidding my way around col de Turini at the moment not very fast though!

One thing missing I think.

They need to add a
“Change vehicle”
“Change location”

in the menu at the end of a time trial instead of having to go all the way back to the start menu.

Yes that’s a good idea. It can be annoying.

I was ranked 5th in the world on one of the Monte Carlo tracks. I say ‘was’, I darent look now as I was 5th out of 8 and suspect I’m now 45th out of 48th!
 
Just drove the Polo R5 stock settings for the first time in Career Mode Done ArgeeBargee and Monte Carlo so far.

This little car drives it self just about, best car up till now.

Your missing out if you have not drove it, had a :D on my face looking forward to giving it some stick tomorrow.
