Dirt Rally Update - Version 1.2

Hi all,

Version 1.2 of DiRT Rally has arrived, bringing with it Oculus Rift support! If you have an Oculus kit, here are some top tips to make the most of your new DiRT experience...

• To get the game to boot in VR, simply plug in your Oculus headset before you press Play in Steam.
• We don’t recommend you turn on VR in the Steam Client, as doing so will disable the Steam Overlay on the desktop image of the game.
• To re-centre your view, just hit the Left Ctrl key.
• We have added configurable options in the HUD settings in order to reduce motion sickness, which are active by default. We’ve also given each track a comfort rating as a guide to help control motion sickness.
• DK2 does work with the VR version of DiRT Rally.
In terms of fixes, it’s a very short list – but this is one that will improve some of your replays no end:
• Graphics - Motion blur being applied to AI cars.
As always, please let us know if you’ve got any feedback about this patch in the usual places – like here, on our Codemasters forums, or on Reddit – but we hope you enjoy the update!

Now, on to the fun stuff - you may notice that the patch doesn’t just bring fixes, but some additions to the content on DiRT Rally... We’ll discuss these in closer detail in tomorrow’s Road Book – but to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, we’ve added the following content:

- Art - We’ve updated Pikes Peak International Hill Climb to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the event, complete with official PPIHC logos and branding.

- Game - We’ve updated the handling on the Hill Climb cars so that you can really attack the iconic Hill Climb course.

We hope the patch in all of its Pikes Peak glory really enhances the Hill Climb experience for you, and that the fixes leave your DiRT Rally experience a lot smoother and more fun to play. As always, if you have any feedback for this update, please head to Twitter, Facebook or our Codemasters forums to share it!

This is the best f*cking racing game I've ever played.
Hacked it, played 3 hours, bought it.

I undusted my racing wheel and fixed it to my desk, I just played 4 hours straight without even noticing tonight!

It actually feels like you're driving a real car, the game quickly puts you back into place if you think you can just rambowombo into corners guesstimating, gives you proper challenges with acheivable goals, the cars all drive completely differently and you feel the slightest bump in the road or change of material through force feedback.

9.8/10 - Loving it, still needs to come with a wind simulator and a perfume dispenser to make me smell the Finnish countryside or the Greek barrenlands.

DiRT Rally is the car version of Dark Souls. That's all ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Awesome game for all rally enthusiasts. Having a blast.

Occasional hitching and a few unnoticeable bugs.

Fantastic rally racing with an exacting handling model that may be intimidating to new players, but makes posting a good time or nailing a perfect corner even more rewarding! Revel in your work (and unwind nerves) by watching replays.

Not fun at all. I've had it with this game. I think the simulator crowd had more than enough with the F1 series, the don't needed to make the Dirt series another simulator. I don't know if having a Wheel makes this game enjoyable and i'm not going to find out. I hate this game. I've had it with Codemasters and racing games. This stupid game is impossible to play with a controller and will NOT be spending ANY money to buy a DORKY WHEEL just to play a racing game. I've had it. This stupid game (And the F1 series for that matter) is so unforgiving, that it makes being tortured in North Korea look like a better alternative. That's it, i'm done with racing games! I've bought 3 games from Codemasters that are impossible to enjoy using a controller. F#ck1ng stressfull game. Horrible. The graphics are nice, but it's just not worth it. Horrible game, horrible experience. I feel ripped of by Codemasters. I have bought 3 games form them that are such a torture, I cannot even get myself to play them more than 4 hours.

It's like Dark Souls and Forza had a child.

Best rally game made so far ?

I started playing this in early access. After early access i was thinking that there's gona be more updates, cars and tracks but just few been released. After so many hours spend in it now its boring. Look at the loeb experience they have many more tracks but physics and driving sucks. So the game is great but not enough content.

Awesome game, good graphics and runs smoothly

Fun, challenging and looks great.

I was getting concerned about the lack of good VR content, this game has officially restored my faith. I played quite a bit on the non VR version and the improvement in my driving after switching to VR is substantial. I can anticipate turns much better and have an overall better feel for the driving dynamics of the vehicle. Oh, and this isn't a crappy VR port, it feels tailor made for the goggles.

Went back to Project Cars VR, huge fan of 2D version btw, for a comparison. Dirt puts it to shame. Graphics settings remain extensive and I have them maxed on an MSI 1070 with oculus debug tool set to 1.5. Like butter after the 2 most recent Nvidia driver updates.

It's relatively intense mentally, not motion sickness mind you, and I usually need to take a break after an hour or so. This is a good thing and reminds me of the adrenaline drain after going to a real track, although not quite that dramatic.

About DiRT Rally

DiRT Rally is the most authentic and thrilling rally game made, road-tested over 80 million miles by the DiRT community. It perfectly captures that white knuckle feeling of racing on the edge as you hurtle along dangerous roads at breakneck speed, knowing that one crash could irreparably harm your stage time.
DiRT Rally also includes officially licensed World Rallycross content, allowing you to experience the breathless, high-speed thrills of some of the world’s fastest off-road cars as you trade paint with other drivers at some of the series’ best-loved circuits, in both singleplayer and high-intensity multiplayer races.

~ Release Date: 7 Dec, 2015

Graphics

Game looks fantastic. There's a few things that Codemasters should improve like the spectators. They kinda look ugly for a 2015 game. And there's a few visual bugs related to shadows but nothing too severe. Interiors are BEAUTIFUL, full of details and speaking about details, the game is full of them inside and outside the vehicles. The mud, the burning brakes at night...

Sound

Again, fantastic job. Cars sound incredible, specially the group B. You can even hear the window rattle. Soundtrack is nice, nothing too fancy but does the job.

Gameplay

Now, this is where the game proves that is not a DiRT4. Rally is closer to simulation than ever before. There's a few options to make the experience a lil close to arcade (ABS, TCS, stuff like that) but if you turn them all off the game feels pretty realistic. I can't say how close is to RBR but one thing is certain, this is completely different to DiRT or even CM.

And they added a few features, like upgrades for the cars (Nothing too powerful to make that Mini the ultimate rally car) and staff management, where you choose the team, pay their salaries, fire them and ofc each one has different stats that affect for example, the amount of damage they can repair between stages.

All in All DiRT Rally is a nice Rally Game :-)

10/10 From Me

The level of concentration required for this game genuinely makes me nauseous.

10/10 for realism

I had so much joy with DiRT 3, but there's more. Let's have a close look to DiRT Rally.

DiRT Rally is a rally game with plenty of modes like plain rally, rallycross and hillclimb. In the career, you start up with the oldest rally cars you can imagine of and pick either generated championships that go harder and harder or your own created championships. Over time you earn money and can buy some better cars and hire trained engineers that keep your car alive and install handy upgrades.

Graphics, sounds and physics are a impressive step and don't need overkill hardware. Recently, VR support was added which I find fancy. I haven't one of those VR-headsets yet, though.

Be aware that DiRT Rally is pretty much deep and demanding, therefore I'd rather call it a simulator, a tough one. There's no map, just You, the Co-driver and the car. Not all the damage can be repaired at once and it even decreases the earnings if you decide to restart. There's only one try for the online time trials also. In the other hand, you can activate driving aids if you need to.
It's important to find the most comfy steering method and the car's tuning for you. Keep a cool head and take breaks over time.

Do you love cars and won't mind a bunch of dirt? Would you accept the challenge? Get it.

When this launched in early access I was taken back to a time when Dirt games (Colin McRae) were simulators not wannabe arcade games. Sure the game was minimal in tracks and cars but it showed the intent of the dev team perfectly. This is the game we want to make now, are you guys in or not?

Well yeah, I was in.. did they come true on their promises? Yes, all of them IMO and then some.

For an early access game to support force feedback wheels, that's good but kinda necessary for a racing simulator. For it also to support TrackIR for headlook and my HD3D monitor is awesome and it looked amazing.

Fast forward god knows how many months and the games been launched and now the VR patch has dropped. It was a hefty update but I'm very happy to say it just worked. Launch game, bam it's running on the Rift. So TrackIR sold, HD3D no longer necessary.

This is the rally game you've been waiting for; if you've just got a joypad... jump right in it's perfectly playable. If you've got an FFB you're in for a treat; if you've got VR you're in for an even bigger treat especially on the wet stages, bloody rain!

tl;dr

This is not an arcade game though, it will require a decent investment of time to get good. 8 hours or so into playing it and er... well I still suck. Now the Rift patch has dropped though I can start investing more time; this is what I've been waiting for.

This game has the developer support, the peripheral/accessory support, tracks you'll love to hate, the cars you want to drive and the ongoing online challenges you want, it has a good single player mode with multi stage races, car damage with correct time scales to repair the car between stages.
