@nikosfotidas8543 DiRT Rally 2.0 itself had a pretty much well established core gameplay. F1 as well for obvious reasons... how it does left the GRID Series?

Haha I'm Belgian but studied to become an English and history teacher. Had a strong British accent but after I quit teaching I started losing my accent and it's now what it is. I can still pull it off but it takes more effort and it would take a lot longer to record. 😅
I'll do the same when the game comes out. Only had a limited amount of time to test and record so I couldn't switch everything as that would've cost me half an hour of test time.
Great news, but it still won’t stop the ‘Don’t buy because EA’ brigade 😂 Though to be honest it makes it more obvious they should be ignored by those on the fence about what to believe 😅 That’s a cool looking stage, like Argentina but it won’t kill you, just injure you
Argentina in Dirt Rally 2.0 is one of the easiest rallies IF you know how to setup the car... I have no idea why people find it hard... just setup very short gearing with lots of acceleration and a very short final gear and you're golden... every time Argentina is in a monthly I gain massive amounts of time and places there cause people are so bad at it... Imo the hardest rally is Poland BY FAR... extremely fast and windy and every time you crash (cause you will crash if you're trying to set competitive times) you end up destroying the car completely .
@@nikosfotidas8543 I agree with your assessment of Poland, Argentina killed me because I would always be over-confident in my braking points and just how much of the rear end I could flick out when there was nothing but a honking great boulder on outside of the corner 😅
@@jack4688 And here is the problem... in a stage like Argentina you break BEFORE and you don't try to get into the corner while breaking... let the car loose and free of break and with minimum throttle input and it will turn fantastically... Argentina is about flow, not speed... people try to be fast all the time but that kills the flow in rallying... that famous quote of Colin McRae "when in doubt, flat out" is the worst advise for a rally driver... Anyway... you'll get it eventually but you need to stop thinking about pushing the speed to it's limit and more about how you will take the corner as narrow as possible to get out of it quick and make up more time . Keep it up... getting better at rallying is the most satisfying thing I've ever done... 😁😁😁
@@nikosfotidas8543 great advice, except now I’m just counting down the days until this game comes out and play that to death 😅 Maybe when Argentina rejoins the WRC and it appears in game again!
@@jack4688 The same principles can be used in all slow technical rallies like Greece or Chile... trust me, just go with the flow instead of trying to go fast and you'll be running against 90-100 difficulty AI in WRC in no time... I'm also waiting like a drug addict for this game... still play Dirt Rally 2.0 until then, but fuck, the 31st can't come fast enough... 🤣
Excellent 👌I wanted to see that little car in action! Looks like great fun. 1 thing I did notice in the gameplay there, was the speedometer needle. It was dropping like 10kmph when changing up gear and dropping off serious speed even when letting off the throttle. Maybe I'm losing mind mind but it seemed like it was a bit too extreme in its fluctuations 🤔
It is weird... however I'm gonna say that maybe that was a quirk of this car if they put it in the game? Maybe when you switched gears the speedometer needle turned off for a split second? If it's a bug then it's a really weird one...
There is a centre of gravity aspect to the physics which is moving back to front to a certain extent based on various factors. As @Jcushing5 mentioned, there have been plenty of new videos that tested out the centre pivoting point statement and showed it's not that but most likely a combination of other factors in DR2.0.
@@SimsRacingDesign It doesn't matter if that Pivot thing is 100% true or not, what matter is that what that analysis described is very similar to what happens (and that analysis mentioned pivot goes to front with higher speeds, so it's not static in the middle all the time). It's just not how real cars behave at all. They don't start sliding when turning until like 200 km/h. Anyway, this won't matter much for their sale numbers, most people won't care.
They are simply providing another incentive for people that want to earn cosmetical items in the game whilst not withholding crucial content such as cars, locations or features. It's a trivial extra, nothing more.
Well i hope they fix the Speedometer on the dasboard as it is a mess, Also the Sunbeam had Dcoe Webbers which sounded nothing like that , I should know i had Webbers for many years.
Hi. Really enjoying your content. Can you please give me your Thrustmaster settings as I have the same TS-PC and I would like to waste as little time as possible when I finally get my hands on the game. Thanks
Has it got a better sense of speed from that dash view? Cause dirt 2.0 it felt like you were going 20mph so I use the bumper view for better sense of speed
It looks like a fun arcade game to play with a controller. Might also be fun to look at the stages through VR once that's incorporated. But the more I see people playing it the more I'm disappointed overall. It's too bed. I was hoping they would do the right thing and give people an epic rally game.
I hope I’m wrong, but I’m skeptical about EA’s pre-launch pledges. When Crash Team Racing Nitro Fuelled was released in June 2019, they made a big song and dance about no Mtx, but what did we get exactly 2 months later? Game shop! Buy Wumpa coins with real world money! I am waiting until I know they aren’t going to pull the same BS again…
@@DEAJP10 What do you say about getting back in touch regarding this in a couple of months time? One or the other will then have to admit he was wrong. Which could still be me but is extremely unlikely. Haha
@@SimsRacingDesign Deal! As I say, I’m genuinely rooting for you! I’ve waited a long time for a god rally game! Didn’t like DR 2 but did like WRC10 but that is looking stale now…
Sure. I have played DR2 and this seems almost identical behavior. The pendulum effect while you re doing 40km on dirt is pretty rough if you ask me@@SimsRacingDesign
I get the feeling they are holding off VR until all 2d performance issues are sorted. No point pissing people of even more with poorly optimised VR. Look at F123 that VR was awful implementation, and people purchased it just for that feature. 🤞
They look that way cause the dude racing the car in the video is a really REALLY high level Rally sim driver... he used to be one of the best worldwide... so he obviously throws the car into the corners way more aggressively than you would... from what people said RWD cars are more controllable than in DR 2.0 by a bit, however they're still RWD cars... they need throttle management to be realistically good... just don't go full throttle in the middle of the turn and manage it and you'll become much much faster... An RWD car can't be controllable like a 4WD...
@@oakesiii3412 It's not snap oversteer... it's the force of the real wheels rotating and pushing the car to turn more... to know if this is realistic or not you need to drive it yourself... cause you don't see the inputs of the driver while he drives...
@@nikosfotidas8543 what are you talking about the car literally snaps on every corner where he touches the throttle and it goes to virtually the same angle everytime.. on gravel you drive a rwd car with the throttle which looks virtually impossible to do on this so far
@@oakesiii3412 You need to try it out for yourself... the guy driving is a really REALLY fast driver on Dirt Rally 2.0 and was even in the e-sports scene... so I highly doubt he just "touches" the throttle... and I say it cause I'm decently fast myself and I don't "touch" the throttle even in RWD cars... drive them very aggressively in DR 2.0 but I can manage the throttle and drive them just fine Instead of whining about it through a vid, try it out for yourself... I mean, it's 45$ or Euros... worst case scenario you'll have a good rally game that's not perfect... Anyway, as I said, just try it out for yourself... only then you'll know how twitchy they really are...
@@SimsRacingDesign Sorry, but the cars rotate around a central pivot as if they were on a skewer stick! No way I'll be buying this. No improvement in realism over DR or DR2 physics wise and no proper triple screen support.
@@stuartthurstan It is simply not. Go onto the EA Sports WRC Reddit page and look at some of the latest posts. People have been testing in DR2.0 and recorded the footage, proving the central pivoting point is just not a thing.
The physics is all incorrect, the car has a rotation point in the center of the car just like dr2 which makes the car seem like there is rear axle steering. The tire grip physics are incorrect aswell since the static friction before losing grip is too low. Both of these things together are why tarmac physics were bad in dr2 and still bad in this new game. This game cannot be considered even close to being a sim.
I’m also critical of previous Dirt games physics but come on, let’s be reasonable. How can you judge the game if you haven’t even played it. I know the video you’ve watched that sparked this comment and you’re doing the author a disservice. Moreover even if I’m critical I still love the previous games. This hate train is ridiculous.
@@BrokeBoyDom watch any tarmac video of this game and pay attention to the rear wheels, no car does that in real life. It looks comedically bad once you realize.
It honestly amazes me that we can see the gear stick moving in the reflection of the window (though without driver's hand, I'm guessing he's not rendered in this view). That's such a neat detail. I haven't played many new racing games, but I don't think this is a common feature.
can't believe ea actually allowed codemasters to make a good game
Portugal looks pretty sweet. It's like the love-child of Argentina and Greece.
Definitely the best location I’ve seen so far
Sardegna is also a very cool location which is a bit similar to Portugal.

This is going to be heaps of fun from the look of that steering wheel work. 2 weeks! Hurry up already! 😂
It's fun but exhausting, that's for sure. 😁
The co-pilot's voice of Dirt Rally 2.0 was much better
use the female one then. she's quite good.
@@ianism3 Also in this game from what they say the pace notes are actually accurate and you won't get into a turn just to hear "tightens 1" while you've already committed to the turn and you are already shouting "Fuuuuuuuuuuck"... 🤣
I agree the female voice in this game is much more pleasing to the ear... but also they are both male and female good and they did a very good job recording them in a way that sounds very realistic... meaning they used a very good microphone with great voice clarity... that's the thing that makes them sound a bit robotic but it's something good mics have to minimize unclear sounding words on the audio... and that's how real co-drives sound through their microphones .
So overall it's a BIG improvement over Dirt Rally 2.0 Co-Driver
Thanks for covering this stuff, much appreciated!
Bit worried still about some physics, controls, grip aspects.
Also, the cockpit pov seems too stiff, vs dr2, loved the feel of movement in that.
Well it's not the helmet cam as that's another view which is possible. Didn't really check out if there was movement/shakes with that cam.
Like the music in the background =)
Thanks mate.
Couldn't help but to stare at the needles in the gauges. I love how they rattle about a bit as you'd expect. Incredible how much effort was put into such a small detail.
Though, the speedo dropping for a moment when you shift up seems rather odd, but maybe that's just a small bug
Good video as always
Thanks mate! Appreciate the compliment and support as always. 😁
Great stuff, again!! 👍 I would love to see 2 additional things implemented, though: the distance gauge working and more spectators on the trackside moving and even doing crazy things, like running on the track, like they do in RBR. 😊😉
Spectators in DR2.0 for some reason had a massive impact on performance.
The gameplay looks great but the robotic co-pilot is a massive letdown. DR2.0 did such an awesome job with Phil Mills.
Phil Mills was too panicky for me.
We need psvr2 support.
They would need sony's permission for that to happen
And Sony is pretty picky these days for games that are from studios they dont own.
So i give IT 40-50% chance of happening

It is an epic rally game. The footage doesn't do it enough justice as you have no way of experiencing the feel of the car.
Tell us something: Are you having a blast? 😊
Absolutely!
@@SimsRacingDesign here we have the first review ☺️👌👌
Haha You are welcome!
Are you using default wheel rotation with softlock or reduced? The car moves around way too fast...
It's 540 in the video. I will be trying it at 900 or 1080 when it's out to feel the difference.
I hope I’m wrong, but I’m skeptical about EA’s pre-launch pledges. When Crash Team Racing Nitro Fuelled was released in June 2019, they made a big song and dance about no Mtx, but what did we get exactly 2 months later? Game shop! Buy Wumpa coins with real world money! I am waiting until I know they aren’t going to pull the same BS again…
Isn't going to happen with this title. 100% sure.
@@SimsRacingDesign Loving the confidence! I genuinely hope I’m being too cynical and you’re right…
@@DEAJP10 What do you say about getting back in touch regarding this in a couple of months time? One or the other will then have to admit he was wrong. Which could still be me but is extremely unlikely. Haha
@@SimsRacingDesign Deal! As I say, I’m genuinely rooting for you! I’ve waited a long time for a god rally game! Didn’t like DR 2 but did like WRC10 but that is looking stale now…
the way the car steers is ridiculous, its nowhere near realistic, pretty arcade physics right there yet it can still be fun no doubt
The way it appears is different from what it feels. You can't see or feel the back end looking at a video.
Sure. I have played DR2 and this seems almost identical behavior. The pendulum effect while you re doing 40km on dirt is pretty rough if you ask me@@SimsRacingDesign
Fuck VR isn't in at launch? With my current setup that basically prevents me from playing, I'm gonna die trying to wait even longer 😂
same here, but will be worth the wait :)
I get the feeling they are holding off VR until all 2d performance issues are sorted. No point pissing people of even more with poorly optimised VR.
Look at F123 that VR was awful implementation, and people purchased it just for that feature. 🤞
Fuck VR is the best type of VR, it's a pity it's not included
You don't have a monitor??? How does it prevent you? Just curious cause that's a weird thing to say...
The rwd cars look way to snappy like dirt rally 2 😔
They look that way cause the dude racing the car in the video is a really REALLY high level Rally sim driver... he used to be one of the best worldwide... so he obviously throws the car into the corners way more aggressively than you would... from what people said RWD cars are more controllable than in DR 2.0 by a bit, however they're still RWD cars... they need throttle management to be realistically good... just don't go full throttle in the middle of the turn and manage it and you'll become much much faster...
An RWD car can't be controllable like a 4WD...
@@nikosfotidas8543 I have a rwd rally car irl .. you don't get snap oversteer like this car is doing most corners especially on gravel
@@oakesiii3412 It's not snap oversteer... it's the force of the real wheels rotating and pushing the car to turn more... to know if this is realistic or not you need to drive it yourself... cause you don't see the inputs of the driver while he drives...
@@nikosfotidas8543 what are you talking about the car literally snaps on every corner where he touches the throttle and it goes to virtually the same angle everytime.. on gravel you drive a rwd car with the throttle which looks virtually impossible to do on this so far
@@oakesiii3412 You need to try it out for yourself... the guy driving is a really REALLY fast driver on Dirt Rally 2.0 and was even in the e-sports scene... so I highly doubt he just "touches" the throttle... and I say it cause I'm decently fast myself and I don't "touch" the throttle even in RWD cars... drive them very aggressively in DR 2.0 but I can manage the throttle and drive them just fine
Instead of whining about it through a vid, try it out for yourself... I mean, it's 45$ or Euros... worst case scenario you'll have a good rally game that's not perfect...
Anyway, as I said, just try it out for yourself... only then you'll know how twitchy they really are...
How many GB does the game have to download now?
Eeeeuhm, I don't remember exactly. Think it was slightly more than 70.
Did they hold ea hostage for this game? 😂
Nope, they've steadily been turning the page the past couple of years if developers wish to exclude strong monetization.
Shame the car physics sre such trash.
They really are not... Just wait until you play it yourself.
@@SimsRacingDesign Sorry, but the cars rotate around a central pivot as if they were on a skewer stick! No way I'll be buying this. No improvement in realism over DR or DR2 physics wise and no proper triple screen support.
@@stuartthurstan It is simply not. Go onto the EA Sports WRC Reddit page and look at some of the latest posts. People have been testing in DR2.0 and recorded the footage, proving the central pivoting point is just not a thing.
It is downgrade from Dirt 2
It most definitely is not.
The physics is all incorrect, the car has a rotation point in the center of the car just like dr2 which makes the car seem like there is rear axle steering. The tire grip physics are incorrect aswell since the static friction before losing grip is too low. Both of these things together are why tarmac physics were bad in dr2 and still bad in this new game. This game cannot be considered even close to being a sim.
EA, nor Codemasters never published / developed any sim, I don't get how anybody could expect them to do differently this time.
Least we get decent corrected classic car unlike KT they put 6 gear on 206 2002
No.
I’m also critical of previous Dirt games physics but come on, let’s be reasonable. How can you judge the game if you haven’t even played it. I know the video you’ve watched that sparked this comment and you’re doing the author a disservice. Moreover even if I’m critical I still love the previous games. This hate train is ridiculous.
@@BrokeBoyDom watch any tarmac video of this game and pay attention to the rear wheels, no car does that in real life. It looks comedically bad once you realize.
