Ranting about the game when in reality the problem is the skill issue of the player lol. EA WRC is a sim racing not arcade driving. WRC partnered with EA to make it their official training sim. To be used in real-life training for WRC drivers. It's really hard to play when you're used to arcade style racing games.

Absolutely not, those games were completely half-baked content wise, handled woefully, looked even worse and changed very little between each rendition. This is a very big step back to the right direction, but it needs a lot of work to be perfect

Great review, spot on. It is a letdown, everyone was expecting better from Codemasters giving they had plenty of time to develop this game. A stepdown from Dirt 2.0 in many ways.
Exactly, it does say it was reviewed on Xbox, but why ignore the PC version. Why not mention in the review that the PC game is a much better looking and smoother experience? Since most of the reasons why this was given a 6/10 appears to be due to console issues.
Sega racing studio acquired by Evolution studios, Evolutions studios acquired by Codemasters, Codemasters acquired by EA sports…so Voila!! you now have the SEGA Rally REVO stuttering in the game!
@@MrDwightSchrute well EA being the publisher, you know the poor programmers are being crunched to hell to even follow the deadline by the corporate lmao
As a VR-only simracer (especially for rally stuff), the performance of ACC in VR was enough of a concern for the Unreal engine swap.. The fact that VR hasn't released yet and even 2D mode is having major performance issues is so disappointing. EA doesn't have a track record of fixing this stuff post-launch so they're not gonna get the benefit of the doubt. I'll wait out those updates / discounts before jumping into this one.
It's totally normal now for games to just release unfinished and be finished a year later. Almost every big publisher game. It's kind of like they design to do that.
Everything keeping this game from being great can and most likely will easily be fixed with patches, code Masters has long history of supporting and updating their games such as with the other dirt titles, dirt 2.0 needed a lot of updates before it got where it's at now.
This game looks so sick! If they can fix some of the bugs and performance issues with patches, itd be perfect…though I’d love to see some ken block DLC. Adding in the hoonicorn or something would be amazing
The rain looks awful. Overall, the graphics in dirt rally 2 seemed better. The terrain looked better, lighting looked better, texture work was crisper, etc. And the performance was better too...

Ive said this before and my oh my it still holds true, modern games are technically inferior to older games, but tech sites like digital foundry keep pretending nothings wrong and simply praise any game with raytracing effects while technically looking and performing worse than 10+ year old games
Though EA's stages are better than Generations (most are modelled off the real roads), and the driving physics is pretty much the gameplay. Just take away the stutters and bamb 10/10 IGN
It's interesting that while he was talking about how controllers feel on tarmac, he shows a clip of him spinning out on tarmac at 8:03. The car did not loop out because of the twitchy controller handling on tarmac, it looped because of the severe lift off oversteer that's in this game. I've never seen any racing game with this severe of lift off oversteer.
After having played EA WRC, WRCG is lightyears ahead and not just because it's a more stable experience but the driving and vehicle physics are top-notch. In recent years, only SLRE and WRCG/10 have actually delivered anywhere near a believable rally experience. The new EA game just felt like Dirt4's toy-car physics with some forced loss of traction every now and then. So artificial and unintuitive. Shame that KT never acknowledged or seriously attempted to fix some of the bugs pertaining to throttle output curve etc because if they had ironed out those bugs, the game would have gone down in history as one of the very best in the genre
Absolute agree! The step to Unreal Engine (it isn’t even UE5) is a big mistake ór they shouldn’t released it in this state!! Big letdown for me as a rally fan!
This is why they shouldn't rely on unreal engine if they can't fix the damn issues. It's been 10 years and still most games have the unreal stutter issue. KT racing did a great job with wrc generations. What a let down to give this to EA .
