Where did that rain go? Heated Front Window?
Wiash there was a way to only have the rock music play in the replays.
I just drove my first trailblazer in one of those 800 hp 900 kg cars. I am in love :lovies3d:
I know. So, so very fun. You got to try one of the long Michigan stages with it. The last sector through the forest is immense. Just hugging/brushing the trees.
i haz this on pc... its more fun then lfs ( by which i mean, your ment to crash in rally cross to win thanks to the noobie ai ) but its just as un-realisitic too...


not bothered with it at all unless a super fun overhaul mod comes out.
Im wondering something where the **** are the delta S4 and the peugot 205 group b cars that were shown in promo footage?

I'm sure they'll release those as DLC.
Well its kind of stupid to put them in a pre release trailer ...
It helps the sale numbers

Dirt 3 smelter action

It is a good game and I enjoy playing it but watching videos of it doesn't half make it feel more of an Arcade game than it is. I'm not saying it's a sim but it's not too bad to be honest., but videos make it look like ridge racer.

It's Ridge Racer. RIIIIDGE RACERRR!
I got tricked into buying Dirt. Really I should have known what I was getting into.
Sorry to bump an old thread, and I know there's lots of haters out there, but I love this game and I've spent a couple of days making a new video of it. Basically it's a slow motion video showing the more beautiful side of the game, something which is overlooked when you barrel along a course at 125mph.

Here is a quick preview, the full video is nearly 7 minutes long and it should be uploaded by the end of the day.

My verdict of the game is it is spread too thin with too many disciplines, just as you get into one type of racing for a mere 5 mins you get throw into something else, everything seems so trivial.

And the rally stages are too wide! you get a few decent challenge corners per stage and the rest is not much of a challenge, except finding out how much to cut.

I enjoyed the truck and buggy the most, and rallycrossing, the rest were done before and done much better.
After being playing for a long time my points are:

- Amazing graphics
- Great performance, seems that they've done a great optimization job
- Extremelly easy until level 5. Level 6 usually requires a perfect race, but even with keyboard you can manage it.
- Very well playable with keyboard even without driving aids (Don't like to use my G25 with arcadish games)
- Some people (including me) are having troubles with loading times, and is not a computer spec related. With 8Gb of ram and a SSD it takes around a full minute to load every single race. Keeping in mind races are extremelly short, this bug is very annoying since the gameplay is being interrupted so often.
- It's a good thing that you can skip the gymkana races and still go on in the career mode, since I don't give a f*ck about them
- Your mechanics and managers speak too much, and they just say bullshit. Better to turn their volume off.
- Damage visuals are so so. Glasses break, parts fall and hang around, wheels break... but there is not body deformation at all
- Sound is great, not only engines in general but also environmental sound.
- Land Rush races are boring as hell. Cars are slow and engines sound like shit (both buggies and trucks)
- Setups really affect to handling, and they're quite simple, which is good for this kind of games.
- Sometimes is annoying that there's one rival who is way faster than the others, so unless you win every single event, you won't socore higher than him.
- There are few locations, kinda dissappointed with this.
