These cars are quicker than the r5 and are some of the quickest on gravel atm. Also as for the skoda sound they said they were trying to get a real skoda to record sound off but didnt get it in time however are going to update the sound soon
It's just a placeholder until they can record the real deal. They're using the sound of the Mini Countryman from DR1 as a placeholder for the C4 as well.
@@iamtheVP I honestly can't be bothered going through the threads on the Codemasters forum tbh, heh. But they always do their utmost to get the authentic car recordings where they can, and add a decent substitute for when they cannot.
This car reminds me of a rally my dad an I watched together when I was very young. All I remember from it is that almost all the cars crashed and few made it through. There was one however, that I distinctly remember managing to survive and that was this Skodia Fabia. The Shell decal on the hood really stood out, and I still remember seeing it speeding away as if it was yesterday.
Your comment just made me remember of my rally memories...Group A here, TAP Rally of Portugal. One of the stages was right here at my door...All I had to do was just standing there and watch em flying by...Tommy Makinen, Colin Mcrae, Carlos Sainz...ahhhhh the nostalgia man...I still have a Tshirt that I was wearing, that McRae and Carlos Sainz signed themselves at the end of a Super Special stage here in Figueira Da Foz 1997, McRae was driving the Subaru Impreza "555", and Carlos Sainz the Ford Escort Cosworth (Repsol livery)...Sht I miss those times so bad...!
Wow jimmer I absolutely love the McRae Skoda & wow you’ve got this car dancing to the Jimmer Tune absolutely fantastic driving & awesome video any advice for a budding dirt enthusiast? 👍🏻
This car holds some special personal memories to me, as I went to Wales in 2005 to see Colin in that car. That weekend would later end in tragedy with the death of Michael Park on the Sunday. I later went to Wales 2017 with one goal: Have the picture I took in the Millennium Stadium signed by his protege Kris Meeke. Goal achieved!
Be great to finish off video with replay, Jimmer. Only thing better than a good clean run... is watching one!! Lovin’ ya clips from Downunder, mate. Cheers!!
what we still need for vehicles in this game is the 2003 xsara citroen wrc / 1989 subaru legacy wrc group A / celica st165 or st185 / 1997 subaru wrc 22b / skoda octavia 2001 wrc / talbot horizon rally / nissan pulsar rally car / seat cordoba wrc / toyota corolla wrc / mitsubishi lancer evo 3 / peugeot 206 wrc / bmw m3 e36 rally car / the kelsey mc2 rally car / andrew burton peugeot cosworth rally car / lada riva rally car / citroen ds3
Great video Jimmer!! As for the dlc cars.....i was looking at the standings on a career event on DR2.0 and the 2 cars appeared on the list. This shows me that the cars were in the game before release and codies put a paywall. I have the game and im enjoying it but tactics like these are shady imo.
Collin McRae was a flat out or nothing driver. That might be a carried over sound effect but so sweet! Hoping simTubers like yourself can do some time trials over different stages and cars? Iv checked my times against other drivers and thought I was fast on the stages! Wow there’s some quick wheelers out there 😳
There's a 2008 Impreza coming to go with this and the Citroen. And as someone else mentioned, Codemasters are trying to find a car to record audio from and will update the game as and when. Also you gotta turn the in-game wheel on just to look at it with its marvellous green and red gear shifter rings :D
Love this game. I haven't even used awd drive yet, been farting about with the 131 abarth and omg I. Love. it. Checked global leader boards and went 18th fastest in that class on one of the US stages. Rwd is so fun!!!!!!
I do agree it kinda sucks that they copy and pasted the sound but at least they didn't do it on a scale of FH4 they took it to a point that they were having cars with the same sound that had there OWN AUDIO FILE in the last game
Nice video👍. I also have a suggestion for your Nordschleife series. You should really try the Ferrari 330 P4 (in Assetto Corsa), It's a lot of fun to drive.
Its shame that Škoda stepped out of the WRC and is doing only S2000 and R5 in recent years. I know they are successfull there but common WRC is WRC. I hope one day they return. This Fabia WRC is one of my all time favourite rally cars.
Appreciate the knowledge to let those who don't know that the engine is copy and pasted from another car in DR1. 👍 I'm annoyed with Codemasters for so many aspects of this game, despite at the same time loving other parts of it. Your wheel inputs seem more responsive than mine - T300 on PS4 but that shouldn't matter. Have you tweaked the settings/rotation in anyway?
So I have a request haha I don’t know if you have already drove this car yet but I would love to to see you tear it up in a Mercedes C11 at the circuit in Bathurst!
Line means you'll have a sequence (usually 2 faster corners, not always the case) which can be taken in a straight line across the two aka no need to turn the wheel so you can gain the most speed, essentially just a straight between two apexs, hope that helps!
Here's how the Skoda Fabia WRC sounds IRL, so I agree that it indeed is a bit disappointing that CM simply copied the Focus sound from the first Dirt Rally game. The car dash/display of the Fabia is also incorrect in Dirt Rally 2.0 compared to how it actually is as shown in the onboard video behind the link as well. th-cam.com/video/Q9no-HDASoE/w-d-xo.html
Here's a clip I found of that Skoda service th-cam.com/video/9K15sWFpQ2I/w-d-xo.html for some reason it keeps fast forwarding, if anyone can find better footage please do tell :)
I'm trying to use the FaceTrackNoIR with an old PS3 EyeCam on my PC, but it is too sensitive and have to re-center all of the time. Is TrackIR better? I would prefer to use it with the "passive" clip-on rather than the clip that goes on a headset since I don't normally use headphones.
I think my least favourite thing is the rain especially at night . Rain , night NZ looks like it is from an amiga 500 game . Worst rain from any game ?
How do you get so good at this game so quick? I'm on controller but God dam do you know how to maintain a slide and keep her straight! If I get even a little sideways on the straights I'm going into a tree no doubt lol, one day I'll reach your level
Pretty good car. I do prefer the Citroën however - that thing is a beast of a car. But then again, of all the cars in the game, it would be the fastest irl.
This Fabia reminds me of the Peugeot 206 WRC... Similarly short wheelbase (slightly shorter than most other cars of its time), except the Fabia wasn't really all that successful...
These cars are quicker than the r5 and are some of the quickest on gravel atm. Also as for the skoda sound they said they were trying to get a real skoda to record sound off but didnt get it in time however are going to update the sound soon
I will donate the sound of my beastly 1.4 MPi Škoda Fabia to the developers any time. Please inform them good sir.
@@TheBobes I'd prefer a 1.9 TDI sir. I can offer the sound of a B4 VW Passat 1.9 TDI
@@mrprice8536 Trust me, my Fabia 3cyl 1.4tdi sounds even better!
Where's this source of info that they will update the sound
That good news
FFS Jimmy give us the replay mate that drive was insane.

Good of you to call out the developers with the 'Copy&Paste' of the Focus engine sound from the first Dirt Rally.
It's just a placeholder until they can record the real deal. They're using the sound of the Mini Countryman from DR1 as a placeholder for the C4 as well.
@@Porkhammer For the C4 as well? They had the car in DR1.
@@Thiago_Pires Didn't sound right in DR1 to be honest, don't think they have a proper recording of it yet.

Would love to see the old Peugeot 206 WRC make an appearance in this game ;P
MoochieGamez or the 307 WRC.

Or the Xsara :D
And the 2005 Subaru Impreza too...
i would like to see every car from Colin Mcrae 2.0.... yeh i really liked that game
Early to mid 00s rally cars were very cool. Nice video, as always :D
You make it look frustratingly easy. Sensei!

Nicely done, good driving Jimmy!
Thank you for sharing this with us, you are actually well above average Sim racing dude.
Just did 06:16.553 and it amazes me that I'm still 36 seconds of the top time. I used G27 with 900 degrees of rotation and h-shifter with clutch.
The Fabia has an engine sound we've already heard before, but the Citroen C4 sounds absolutely fantastic.
excellent driving
Thank you for sharing
I put the thumbs up
Really enjoy the video great run buddy 👍
Nice weight reduction, Jimmy.
All we need now is the Octavia lol and this Fabia was my all time favourite WRC Cars!

Education boi here: Škoda is pronounced "shkoda"
Ja ja, das Schade.

Damn, after trying that track with new Skoda Fabia I must say that was insane! Wish I could drive it like that!
That BOV sounds really pleasant to my ears lol
I used to play some WRC game with my friend on his PS2. Once I discovered how good this car was, I never picked anything else
Gen 2 Focus and '08 Impreza are coming as part of the first season as well to fill that class more, so there will be more cars to compare against :P
Oh baby cant wait for the Impreza
That hair tho 👌
Im loving how this car handles atm i just hope they update the real audio
New to your channel, so this has probably been said before... you really sound a lot like the former F1 commentator from the 80s, 90s, Murray Walker.
That was an awesome run I love driving that car it is one of the best in the game
Awesome, dirt rally 2.0 content!
Please play this game more, I love WRC 8 and Dirt Rally 2.0
Can hardly wait for the weekend so I can try out the new cars too
Collin McRae was a flat out or nothing driver. That might be a carried over sound effect but so sweet! Hoping simTubers like yourself can do some time trials over different stages and cars?

Your wheel inputs seem more responsive than mine - T300 on PS4 but that shouldn't matter. Have you tweaked the settings/rotation in anyway?
the 15secs of silence at the beginning are also 15 secs for colin. RIP
I feel like i can take a nap while watching jimmy, thats that,, not really, i enjoy playing dirt rally 2.0
I don't understand how you do it. How you drive and talk at the same time haha. Also, should try this car, seems fun.
So I have a request haha I don’t know if you have already drove this car yet but I would love to to see you tear it up in a Mercedes C11 at the circuit in Bathurst!
Hey Jimmy ! Have you tried the NGP mod For Richard Burn Rally ?
Can anyone tell me what 'line' means in the pacenotes? I've played a lot of Dirt Rally and that's the only thing I haven't picked up.
Line means you'll have a sequence (usually 2 faster corners, not always the case) which can be taken in a straight line across the two aka no need to turn the wheel so you can gain the most speed, essentially just a straight between two apexs, hope that helps!
@@AmbientMike legend, thanks.
You bet man, happy to help -Your resident Rally enthusiast
I've always wondered if he could get faster times by quietly listening to the PACE notes, and not adding verbal commentary while he is driving.
I really hope they add more of the 2000 class
Jimmy please do a nordschleife lap with the Brahman bt62 🙂
That is some physics happening at 7:44
lookin good Jimmy
Cant wait for WRC8

Fresh trim boi
They should add Loeb's Xsara
What do you think of the amount/variety of maps?
aren't they too few for a 50€ game?
I love your videos bro.
FFS just rendered my video praising the sounds, didn’t even realise it was the same as the focus 🤦🏻♂️
In my opinion the sound isn't quite the same as the focus. It's "looks" similar but I think that it's because of the engine type
Can you post you’re wheels and console setting...
Even driving a normal one is fun!
Couple of times going sideways you needed to look out the side window - have you looked into getting a trackir?
I'm trying to use the FaceTrackNoIR with an old PS3 EyeCam on my PC, but it is too sensitive and have to re-center all of the time. Is TrackIR better? I would prefer to use it with the "passive" clip-on rather than the clip that goes on a headset since I don't normally use headphones.

Do you think I could play racing sims with a joystick instead of a wheel and pedals?
no. leave your joystick alone.

Is the Alpine A110 in this game?
