Game of the Year Edition is out now for PC, and on 50% off until 06 April on Steam. Contains base game + all 4 seasons of DLC released to date + new Colin McRae DLC pack for R164.50 (with SA regional pricing).
Base game is also on special at less 60% (R87.60) but excludes any DLC.
I have had some minor hardware annoyances switching between these too. My handbrake disappears when play dirt rally, but itās fine on dirt rally 2.0. The lack of weight in the cars, is weird, going from DR 2.0 to DR. Now I understand why so many people complain of āfloatinessā in DR. DR 2.0 has been a little more resilient in catching data, after crashes. DR will just drop all my progress sometimes.
Meh, just me working up to saying, Iām gonna focus on DR 2.0, and iām over DR. DR 2.0 also has way more content.
By chance I was doing the Swedish rally in DR2 career mode before I switching to DR to do the last 2 stages, both Swedish stages that I just did in DR2 moments before.
Thereās a clear improvement in the way the car responds to inputs in DR2, I feel way more confident throwing the car around in 2 and when I mess up it always clear to me what I did wrong.
It is still weird to me that thatās how they do it. Would make more sense imo to only install the base game and then DLC elements only on demand when theyāre needed.
In case you missed it though, hereās why they do it this wayā¦
Almost finished the round. Taking my time with the stages but I do feel like this game is a bit more forgiving. I can bump the car a lot more and not worry itās made of glass. The one stage I knocked my one side of headlights and brights off and had to struggle with the limited visibility, but I hit hard in order to knock the lights out.
But I have to excuse my time, Itās not my fault, my co-driver has no pacenotes and is just making things up as we go, which makes things dificult.
Geez that midnight rain messed me up so badly on the first stage. I must have spun more than 5 times, rolled the car onceā¦ it was a good time (while being a terrible time).
Iām amazed at the times you guys posted. In the dry maybe, but in those conditions, thatās incredible!
