[CrippsCorner]

Big fan of the DiRT games! Really want to see one on the current generation of consoles, but at the moment, it's PC only...

Timeline of the release...

Said they will monitor reception on the game and see if it's worth releasing on consoles.

YES. Yes it is :hushed:

That looks so much fun. Just need to convince the missus I'm allowed two more TV's and a steering wheel in the lounge

 

[BGEarles]

Looks great!!!!!

Maybe she wouldn't crash this one :grin:

This looks really good - at last a hardcore rally sim again from CM. Hope it makes it onto PS4.

 

[JackJack]

The last dirt was good but not a proper rally game and the wrc games looked and played like they were 10 years old, so i hope this comes out for xbone.

Me too. I loved the old Colin McRae Rally games.

 

[CrippsCorner]

DiRT 2 was the best imo. Did anyone used to play V-Rally? Used to love that!

 

[GiT]

Preferred Destruction Derby 2 on PS1.

 

[CrippsCorner]

This was one of the worst games I ever played on the N64!

 

[Owen92]

Richard Burns Rally was the best console rally game.

 

[McGherkin]

RBR is still one of the best IMO. With the Rallye Sim mods installed it's truly epic.

WRC 04 was the last good WRC game, before they changed developer.

It'll be nice to see another crack at sim rallying.

 

[SharkyUK]

It'll be nice to see another crack at sim rallying.

...with a custom track editor / builder...

 

[BIFCAIDS]

I miss V-Rally lol

 

[nebraska182]

I loved V-Rally...great for split screen!! My fave overall though was the original Colin McRae....so many memorable stages like the muddy course through Wales!

I did really like Dirt 2 though in a more casual,pick up and play way....wasnt too keen on all that Gymkhana rubbish that came into it..

 

[RMDavis]

This was one of the worst games I ever played on the N64!

I loved that game, lol! Me and my brother played it for hours! Totally forgot about it too!

 

[McGherkin]

So yeah, I'm downloading this now. Looking forward to it!

 

[McGherkin]

Aaand... It's bloody awesome. Go buy it. Whilst the physics aren't quite 100%, they're easily close enough and the experience more than makes up for it.

 

[cafcross]

They would be foolish to not bring this to consoles.

 

[imprezaworks]

I would 100% buy this. Why havent they?

 

[McGherkin]

I would 100% buy this. Why havent they?

It's still in early access. Open beta, if you will.

 

[imprezaworks]

Ah get ya. Does look really very good.

 

[iain187]

They would be foolish to not bring this to consoles.

I would imagine it will be like project cars... awesome if you have a wheel, ball ache with a pad.

 

[McGherkin]

It's hard with a wheel let alone a pad!

 

[CrippsCorner]

Why though? The old ones were good enough with a pad? Kind of which I had a dGPU right now especially finding out the new Need for Speed is bloody online only.

 

[McGherkin]

This is unlike any of the dirt games. It's PROPER hardcore.

I've been trying to set competitive times on Bidno Moorland all evening and jesus f**k it's hard to drive at full blown WRC pace.

 

[McGherkin]

Been fiddling with some skins etc and managed to get it running in 4k too.

Spoiler: 4k warning

Sweden should be coming out next week, with the Hyundai i20 and Polo WRC cars, which obviously are the dominant cars from this year so can't wait to give it a go.

One complaint with this sim and it is the verges - they are OP as f**k, never touch them. Even when it's just a slight bump at the side of the road it sends you flying for miles. Bit buggy but hey ho.

It appears a console release is inbound, ratings have been spotted for PS4 and Xbone.

 

[canky]

It really is a great game i stopped playing project cars for this got it on early access, like post above says another update coming then i think its pretty much at full release.
Think they promised renaults but not yet happening?
Consoles should be next year if it goes well i heard.
I like playing through headphones on very loud and the exhaust popping and crackling is amazing, got to be one of the best games for the sound.

Trying to tame the beast group b rally cars is great fun. Loving the rs200 right now!

 

[imprezaworks]

Be awesome if this comes out on the consoles

'95 Impreza, Sierra Cossie on the rev limiter, Mk2 Escort are all serious ear p**n (amongst others!)

 

[cafcross]

That looks amazing!

 

[RMDavis]

I can't wait for this to be released on console!

 

[James28]

Those screen shots look insane

 

[McGherkin]

Have a video as well Just recorded using shadowplay so the framerate may be a bit juddery - smooth 60fps in reality.

 

[CrippsCorner]

My PS4 is drooling

 

[McGherkin]

Aaand it's launched.

Final version on PC is out now. Coming to consoles on APRIL 5TH.

 

[canky]

I cannot download this fast enough lol

10.5gb!

 

[McGherkin]

4.4gb so far.

The struggle is very real.

 

[canky]

8.3gb for me now but i got to sort the kids out first so hopefully some play time later :smile:
