Quick review from me.
Completed over half of the career now, absolutely love this game TBH. I wasn't sure at first, as I loved Dirt Rally so much, this game is far more forgiving, the rally's are much easier, but still lots of fun.
One thing to note is the rally tracks on this game are auto-generated, as in, they are not set routes like on Dirt Rally, the tracks are completely random and at times you can take the exact same turn 3-4 times in one round. Makes them very hard to learn as they are different every time, but at the same time makes them more challenging as you don't know what's around the next corner.
Landrush and Rallycross are both lots of fun, rallycross especially, throwing a Rally X car around like nothing is a right laugh.
The game is much easier than Dirty Rally, purely because you can tailor the difficulty settings yourself, either in gamer (arcade) or challenging (simulation) modes, then set the AI difficulty too (easy through to brutal) and prize money differs dependent on difficulty. You can still employ a full team and upgrade facilities and add sponsors with sponsor targets for cash, perks for your engineers etc and design your own team. You get more money for entering your own team into an event, but you have to repair your car yourself and your team takes a cut of the cash, or you can drive for another team instead if you don't have the required car, where repairs are free but their team takes a much bigger cut.
Also there's a joyride event which is just a big gymkhana playground with time trials and smash events, a good laugh between career events.
I'd recommend the game personally, not played anything else for 2 weeks now!
