So I jumped back into this game after a long hiatus after launch and Im digging it but I have a few issues.
-Does it seem like the pace notes are just off on certain courses? Just played one last night on the AI weekly challenge and I forgot what course it was but there was a large jump and a 3 right after it but the pace notes didnt mention this until I was literally launching off the jump. I crashed of course and never got back on track. There was another section on the same course where it called out a standard left 3 but it was tight with a tree right off the course on the outside....no mention of any of this, resulting in yet another crash.
-The lighting system seems to glitch out a bit occasionally. I was racing in New Zealand at sundown and there was a weird effect i noticed a couple times where the lighting would drastically change. It almost seemed like a LOD issue as the lighting would pop into a higher definition version. Is this common? Im playing on PS4 Pro.
I bought the Deluxe edition as well last night and did a race in Sweden....good lord, this is so much better than DR1. Sweden in DR1 was almost unplayable for me which was always a bummer since its one of my favorite countries in most rally games.
is it just me or are the rally cross events almost never featured in the daily/weekly/monthlies now? i wonder if codies data showed significantly less player investment in those?
think about it like a bracket tournament. each heat qualifies the top drivers for the next round. finishing near/at the top gives you better starting position in the next round. if you didnt qualify for the final than you were in the bottom of the group in the semi finals. i'm not sure how big each group for each heat is, but 15th doesn't sound to far off. ?I kinda forgot that Rallycross was in this game until yesterday.
Which I have a question about. I finally played the first Rallycross event in the Career mode. I won every heat I was in but didnt qualify for the final and ended up in like 15th place.....wtf? How does this work?
btw, championship is over. is there interest in another round?
Yeah I got the dlc and am totally down for another championship. :Dalright!
next question - does everyone participating have the season 1 and 2 DLC? frankly, i'd sacrifice some new locations for more competitors, so speak up!

the real question is what car class we gonna use?cool. unless i hear otherwise (people that want to participate missing DLC) i was thinking, in no particular order; wales, germany, montecarlo/sweden (determined by coin flip)
imma be honest, felt like i was getting the hang of the last class of cars we were using but nah we shouldn't do the same one. If we are gonna go the DLC route this time, perhaps we could do the cc2000's? but honestly I'm down for whatever.
Maybe no mandatory RWD? I absolutely fucking suck at RWD, I just cannot seem to wrap my head around it lol
i was going to suggest RWD just to shake everything up. ive avoided those cars almost entirely!
i'm good with 2000cc
Welcome! Just click on the link to join in :DJust got this on the Xbox may have to join the leagues.....ill be the guy in last place lol.
Its a Shame the F1 2019 hasn't got a league going on here....doesn't seem to get much love
Thanks for setting all this up op_ivy 🙏
Realizing that I have very little experience with the stages picked. Whew
i get that they don't want people to farm but given the actual career is so impenetrably difficult, there's really nothing I've done with the credits aside from upgrading my team to drop the cost of resets and repairs
Really thought they'd get the career right in this one after DR1's being so lackluster. The DiRT games have always had super strong careers.
ok my times are up. is it me or the penalties for reset pretty stiff in this rally? went off road in the ?third stage and cost me 25 seconds 😖 Oh well - man, Germany is a fun rally - just all tarmac, right angles and rocks... hair raising stuff lol
did you hit spectators/marshals? the penalty is significantly harsher if you do
