2 pointsQuick market test: Thumbs up if you'd purchase this season pack.

2 pointsYeah, there are obviously a lot of factors at play, but it does make you question the situation at Subaru the last few years: has that car been closer to race winning pace than many thought and was it just the driver(s) holding it back? As much as the Focus seemed to be a fan favourite it still, despite a lot of effort, seems to be inferior to the Fiesta. I hope Block (and Arpin) manage to secure some decent results this year. They really need Block out there to push the numbers up as well. Agreed with regards to Abbring, first time I think we have seen the true potential of that Fabia (and that must be reassuring for the team to see given how much money ES Motorsport have thrown at that car). I am not a Marklund fan, so I must admit I wasn't that sad to see him get disqualified. Bit of a blunder from the team there, I was debating the possible technical positives (or negatives) of their error after reading about it. I thought the penalty for Kevin Hansen was a bit strong, but then I thought the same when they penalised Gronholm in Abu Dhabi, so they are 1:1 now. Such a shame that Gronholm has missed two rounds as, even with multiple wins, it's going to be very difficult for him to close in on the leaders. Massively disappointed for Liam. I know he isn't everyone's favourite, but his drive in the semi and final was superb, such a shame the car let him down.

2 pointsThe new Latvia RX tracks is nice. Enjoying it. What I notice about the AI, is that in the rain the AI is a bit weak on 100%. In my first try with the Megane in the wet i immediately won, which was a bit of a suprise for me without knowning the track (just from tv footage). In the dry the AI seems more challenging and stronger and they beat me first. Could also be because i was driving the Polo, which not really is suiting my driving style. I must say the new RX tracks are really a fun. The old tracks i played so much online in DiRT 4 that I almost could drive them blind. So the new track (trois rivieres, catalunya, mettet and silverstone) are really fun. So therefore can't wait for the Estering (which might be a real challenge) and future new tracks and supercars 🙂 Also had some good online races in the last weeks since the "human only" events 🙂. How to improve Rallycross mode with some 'easy steps' - Make it possible to have an 8 car grid, like they have in the French Rallycross finals (cough.... and the old days of GRC ... cough). And it was possible in DiRT 3 (ok. doesn't mean it works now). I think it's probably more limited to due to the WRX licensing. - Increase the lobby sizes from 8 to 10 or 12. - Consolidation finals also in the grid format as the semi-final and final (now they are like qualifying, so next to each other) - If chosen for single race, possible to choose for grid format (position or quali) - Possible to choose option for Finals only (like in DiRT Rally 1 or DiRT 4) AND of course MORE RX CARS AND TRACKS 😛

2 pointsI actually think he was doing just that, seemed to be parking it on the apex to hold the others up, but maybe that's just me. 🙂 Bakkerud was struggling all weekend, the car setup was looked really bad. Understeer everywhere, shame. Despite the DSQ for Marklund, it was still a great weekend of racing, looking forward to Holjes! Some great wildcard entries coming.

1 pointThose that are unhappy might wait when it comes to future DLC cars until they see the liveries. If these are decent or really cool, they are more likely to buy them. If these are not, there will be a number of people not buying it because why would you buy something if you know you won't use it anyways. I made a suggestion about a possible sollution to @PJTierney and I'm waiting for an answer... 😄

1 pointThe Consolation Final SHOULD be a real thing in WRX. More races for the fans is always a good thing. I'm also in the camp of adding more RX tracks and cars, especially some of the older ERX tracks from the 80's and 90's. Estering will be great, the joker section is going to be TIGHT though.

1 pointFound a fix for this on PC today: Go to your my documents folder Go into saved games/ my games folder Find dirt rally 2.0 folder go into hardwaresettings with notepad or other text editor, open up hardware_settings_config.xml Find and then replace this value: <hdr level="1.0" /> with <hdr level="0.1" /> Credit to G3tright1337 on RaceDepartment

1 pointI’ve pretty much given up on doing the career because of this issue, for me this is the biggest problem with the game that desperately needs fixing.

1 pointgame is looking great to me. i love the new dynamic weather. also love how they've modeled wear for each individual tire. even in WRC7 the tire wear was much better done than in DR2.0. not sure why they got that guy to do the co-driver calls, it sounds terrible, but i do really like how the co-driver gives you much more information than the co-driver in DR2.0. i never really had any problems with the calls in WRC7 but in DR2.0 the calls are hugely problematic.

1 pointI really don't like the Consolidation Finals feature as that's not how it's done in World RX, it'd be nice to have a toggle on/off for it rather than be forced to have it on AI does seem more nicely balanced at Latvia though which is good, better than some of the other tracks at least 😄

1 pointIt's on the front page of this thread EDIT: There seems to crystalize a pattern regarding the preferences. So I think I can setup the first season soon. Despite a few bugs remaining... Anyway, my plan is for the first season to end very close to the Wales release, so to incorporate Wales in the second season already

1 pointHere's something I havent seen before. Plenty of McRae/6R4 onboard action! I really recommend the channel as well, so much gold to be found on VHS Rallies

1 pointI understood it that if the encryption is removed, the DLC cars will be available to anyone with the base game without any exporting or tinkering whatsoever? I might have understood that wrong though.

1 pointYesterday when I played 'DiRT Rally 2.0' I noticed sign on which was 'GRID' written. I smashed it. And that made me a bit creative and I made a joke. Obviously it is only for a laugh.

1 pointLet's be very clear: This has nothing to do with choice of monitor, or calibration. Don't believe me? Here are image links, on the Xbox website where screen captures are directly uploaded: https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/bloarcus/screenshot/12313277 https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/bloarcus/screenshot/12313275 In other words, this is what the Xbox is out-putting to the screen. No adjustments or monitor choice will change that. @RodgerDavies I've changed the thread title. I understand your dislike of that kind of disrespectful wording. However in this instance, I am a bit exasperated. Our community manager has steadfastly refused to comment on whether this issue is being looked at. Same with CM staff. Oh, and it was also a cheeky reference to the 'fix the garbage rain graphics' thread we are all familiar with! 😉

1 pointA lot going on in my life, haven't posted much, lately. So I thought I would share this nugget - not my words, it was posted on a facebook group. Who in hell had the dumb idea to invent rallyracing? Two drunk guys with a warped sense of humor at a bar? Inventor: "We should invent a new more expensive motorsport." Other Guy: "Oh, you mean like dragracing?" Inventor: "Fawk no! Too straight. Too short, Nobody lives a quarter-mile at a time. Make the finish hundreds of miles away with turns." Otherguy :"Oh, like NASCAR." Inventor: "Fawk NASCAR! Make them turn booooth ways." Otherguy: "Uhm,..Roadracing." Inventor: "Roadracing?! Thats for damn pansies! We'll make them do it in the dirt and mud so it takes them weeks to powerwash their cars. Make them get dirty and blow chunky dust-boogers. Manly enough they can wear their-little-sister's-skinnyjean-racingsuit-and-fairy-shoes-and-no-one-will-care manly." Otherguy: "Yeah, .....thats still just racing with a carwash." Inventor: "NO!! We'll make them break their **** so they have to fix it during the race, .... in a forest, .... with no tools. Put HUGE rocks in the road, grow trees in the ditches for them to whack, gotchyas over crests. AND!,.. we'll make more turns than they can remember so they have to take a friend who can remember everything to crash into and to help fix broken ****." Otherguy: "A really good friend or a desperate ******* he is." Inventor: "Oh, but here is the better part. Tease em. Put HUGE glowing boards with finish flags at the end so they can see it and have hope they are almost done. BUT THEN, put a BIG jump before the finish with more **** like stumps and boulders to land on." Otherguy: "So they just do it one time?" Inventor: "Fawk no. We start the race very early and run it very late so they have no sleep. Have checkpoints to make them drive all over bum-fawk countryside. We make them share a pee in the woods. And we'll call it rally [/DrunkenSlur] because they rally wanted to finish it." Otherguy: "Brilliant! and then whoever still isn't fixing **** can have a party to compare how much **** they broke to see who the biggest loser was. Inventor: "And drink to forget so they will come to the next one." And that is how rally was born. Suckers!

1 pointLooking forward to trying Latvia, but not as much as I am looking forward to throwing it into the first corner in Germany 100ft before The apex

1 pointThis is the limitations of the Xbox protocol which essentially mimics the Xbox controller. Anything beyond are either duplicated or disabled.

1 pointWhat an insane weekend. Wah. So mad. This is why I love RX. So disappointed for Marklund and GCK. Even if the rules are the rules, it's not fair for that team. Kevin Abbring is the real surprise for me. What a nice drive. Deception from the RX Cartel. I was waiting for a team strategy during the semi, Doran could have forced to slow cars behind him and secure a place for Bakkerud but no... and spotters were not at the highest level this weekend ! 🤔 By the way, the most fun RX weekend so far from long time. My little son was sleeping on my chest during the semis and the Final. You could easily imagine his lack of rest during this time Cheers

1 pointAt least, there will be no excuses. From SDK standpoint, everything is possible but it's down to the developer of the game to implement it. I've attached a conversation with a Fanatec employee.

1 pointOkay so people from now on, if you don't see some obvious wheel that should be there and you're on mobile, you can try and put the site onto desktop mode (for example chrome app has it behind the 3 dots or something and same for firefox most likely) 🙂

1 pointChernobyl. What a heck of a series it's. After disappointing GOT finale, HBO has created a master piece.
