    I'm a first time poster, long time reader, and Dirt Rally 2.0 is my most played game for the year – I absolutely love it 😃 I’ve been thinking about what I want from the next game and I reckon Codemasters should focus on more unique kilometres per location and increased stage length. I would love: Next gen game engine that can support stages 30+ kms long 3 times as many unique kms per location (roughly 60 kms each) A single game that is expanded over 3-4 years (the seasons for DR 2.0 have kept me coming back all year) The biggest issue I have with the DR games (and Sébastien Loeb Rally Evo / WRC 8) is the lack of stages per location, there’s far too much repetition to feel like a real rally event. Ideally Dirt Rally 3 should include all 290 odd kms that are already in DR 2.0 and add another 40 kms per location. DR 3 should include all the current locations from DR 2.0 and add 2 new locations to give us 14 total events (Kenya and France are my picks). So let's talk stages. I love that the current stages are based in reality, and using Rally-Maps.com for inspiration, here’s some ideas for DR 3... *Note - I didn't identify the real world locations, kudos to the Dirt sleuths here, here and here. Stages highlighted in red include DR2.0 locations. Dirt Rally 3 - Launch Content Monte Carlo - 60.5 kms La Bolléne Vésubie - Moulinet Clumanc - Lambruisse Sospel - Breil Sur Roya Sweden - 59.37 kms Vargåsen Torsby Fredriskberg Argentina - 60.2 kms Copina - El Cóndor Amboy - Yacanto Tanti - Mataderos Wales - 60.96 kms Hafren Sweet Lamb Maesnant Clocaenog Main Brenig USA - 61.52 kms North Fork Pass & Beaver Creek Trail Dayton Cougar - Windy Total Launch kms: 302.55 Dirt Rally 3 - Phase 2 Content (12/18 months after Launch) New Zealand - 60.19 kms Whaanga Coast Mititai Burnside - Wech Access Germany - 60 kms Panzerplatte Long (cut down to DR2.0 section - 23 kms) Mittelmosel Sauertal Poland - 59.78 kms Stare Juchy Baranowo Orzysz Kruklanki Finland - 58.16 Ouninpohja Horkka Oittila France - 59.73 kms Valinco Désert des Agriates Calvi Total Phase 2 kms: 297.86 Dirt Rally 3 - Phase 3 Content (12/18 months after Phase 2) Greece - 60.61 kms Ghymno (actual DR2.0 stages are 19 odd kms) Pissia Loutraki Spain - 59.09 kms La Figuera Bot Guiamets Porrera Duesaigües Australia - 60.8 kms Welshs Creek Newry Wedding Bells Kenya - 80.12 kms Soysambu Malewa Loldia Kedong Total Phase 3 kms: 260.62 Overall Total kms: 861.03 So... that's plenty from me 🤣 what's on your wish list for Dirt Rally 3?

    Probably because it's not locked down and if they say "we are trying to find a solution for.." it will quickly evolve to "Codemasters promised" within the community.

    I was enjoying Dirt Rally 2.0 a lot until I got upset of listenning that emotionless and monochordic co-driver. It would be expected from frachise with a long list of sucessfull rally games to go the extra lenght to give the player a taste of real rallying. The co-driver in Dirt 2.0 sounds like he's speaking from inside a recording studio, the pacenotes are not fluid, and also very simple (the most harcore rally fans will understand this point). The co-driver doesn't react to crashes, continuing to give the pacenotes like a robot, not even does he warns you something as basic as you going the wrong way. I think Codemasters should consider this issue as it takes off a lot of the "rally feel" from the game, wich is a rally simulator. Take the example from former Dirt Games, specially Dirt 3, wich had a very realistic co-driver, albeit with some flaws naturally. Also the option of having a female co-driver would make sense to return, acounting a growing number of female gamers and also some men would enjoy that.

    Hello, I am a longtime fan of Codemaster games going back to TOCA Race Driver 2. I am repeatedly experiencing a corrupted Data situation when playing Grid 2019 on my PS4 Pro. Please let me know how this can be fixed. I want to continue playing the game but cannot with my current situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated. A summary of my situation is as follows. A short description of the problem: Over 4 times I have received a fatal corrupted application error for Grid 2019 on my PS4. Platform you’re on: PS4 Pro Game Version (Shown on the Start screen in the bottom left hand corner): Version 1.04 Game Mode: Single Player Career Mode What happened in the lead-up to the problem? The error typically happens after I have completed a 2 race racing series. It hasn't occurred yet after just 1 race in a series If you get an error message, the exact wording of the error message you're receiving: "Cannot continue using the application. The data for the following application is corrupted. Delete the application from the PS4, and then insert the disc again." Any accessories you are using (wheel, pad, etc.): Thrustmaster T300 Racing Wheel with pedals.

    After a lot of talking and a lot of speculation. The Trans-Nation eSports finally would like to proudly introduce the registration of the Xbox One platform. Having covered Ps4 for a while now and with many great drivers going against on another there, it’s time for the Xbox One players to have a crack at it and go for number 1. This is not only a chance to race in the Trans-Nation eSports Xbox One League; this is also a chance to be a broadcaster/streamer/commentator or even a main co-ordinator. If you have what it takes to stand among the top of this league and run it as well as the Playstation 4 has for the last two years, then this is the place to be! Now normally under the pretence of how these registrations go, I would normally tell you what tiers we have and what time they operate. I however can say since this is a brand new platform opening, I can only tell you the times of racing and what will happen till we open up more tiers. So to start things off we’ll run the basis of the F1 tier from the Ps4 which is 11am New Zealand time. As the lower hemisphere is entering Daylight savings (Upon writing this the 29th of September) the times will be changing around, but the discussion point of time will come about anyway so we can discuss this as we go along. The day in question will be the same as PS4, on a Sunday so will stem to a Saturday night for Europe/UK and the US/Canadian borders. We will also open up regionals for the Xbox One platform also, but we’ll do that as we gather momentum for the nationals. Assists: Until such time as we have 3 fully or near fully booked tiers all assists will be allowed to use minus Pit entry and Pit release assists. This is F1 cars only, but could possibly have an F2 option later down the road if supply and demand calls for it. How to join: Join us at Discord | Registrations! Just state if you wish to just partake in the racing or if you want to be a streamer/broadcaster/head operator so on and so forth. However just not that if you do apply for this position we take pride in our work and deliver to the best of our ability and we hope you will do the same for the Xbox league as well. Keep in mind this stuff is a major responsibility and not for the faint hearted or freshman to the cause, so experience in the related subjects will take a higher presidency than just anyone wanting to take the spot. Referencing a YouTube, Twitch or media related video showing as such will be a big help in this cause so have one ready when wanting to be interviewed. If you wish to partake as a commentator/streamer or try your hand at being the boss. Then follow these details as require upon joining. If you just wish to partake as a driver then state as much in the registration room. The registration details will be as required. Doing this as soon as you enter the server will save us a lot of time, we can just slot you into a car/tier and be on the way. As for when this all begins, it really depends on the mass of people that come in, and when we can find a broadcaster set of commentators and of course a head honcho capable of running this, we’re definitely looking at a 2020 start the same time as our PS4 Season 5 league so that’s roughly around January 19, 2020. So about then we’ll officially start with the hopefulness we can find the committee and such to make this worthwhile. So let’s see how this goes and hope to see you soon.

    Like the game initially, but the fact that i haven't played it in more than a week says enough. There are 2 big changes essential for me to get back into grid 2019 - Adjustable (longer) races in the career mode - Better cockpit view/dash view support with a larger adjustability for both views. I have what you can call an "ultimate rig" with SFX100 4DOF motion, active seatbelt tensioner and a GS-5 G-force seat with a Samsung 49" ultra wide. Playing Grid can be quite intense and a lot of fun, but the short races makes playing the career kind of boring and repetitive after a couple of laps. So now i've put the game aside hoping for a fix.

    Little suggestion from me. As you most probably will make some patches for this game, could you write Patch notes like DiRT team does with 'DiRT Rally 2.0'? It would be easier to follow your progres.

    First order of business should be fixing Multiplayer. There are so many different bugs and design choices which make no sense. 1. Why is there a button to cancel syncing with other players ? 2. Can't choose cockpit view when spectating. 3. End race video of podium only shows for spectators, not drivers. 4. Can't choose car when joining in the middle of a race. 5. Removing sponsors from livery doesn't work, they reappear. Those are just a few examples, I've gotten a minute added to my finish time, had camera in sky during skirmish, and of course game crashing to name some more. Design wise, from a driver finishing first to the next race starting takes about 2.3 minutes, this should be shorter. A 60 second end race timer would be better.

    On replays in Grid AutoSport & Dirt Rally 2.0 with the Chase cam (1st one) you can free cam around the car on the move. On this GRID 2019 game it is a static replay. Is this something that is not working or could be implemented back in place? I found this very handy for videos and screen captures (While there is no photo mode) etc 👍

    Many reasons why I can't do that, one of which is that it would be outdated within minutes, as we're constantly making adjustments and steps forward with certain topics 🙂 We have multiple get-togethers every week to look at community-reported feedback and assess what can/should be done to address it. But on top of that, we've always got one eye on here and all other official channels to see what's working well and what should be prioritised 🙂

    Thanks everyone for their suggestions so far - I'm putting together an official doc for this so keep 'em coming 🙂

    Here are other suggestions I'd like to chime in (for PC: 1. Fix the rain effects. Sometimes it looks like rain is falling in batches. That's not how rain works. 2. Introduce an option to have races be extended. 3. Chase camera height and distance from car should be adjustable. 4. Using assists and difficulty should come with a reward system. 5. Bring back split screen on PC. It was a great feature in Autosport. 6. Hot-lapping should have more than 1 lap, just like in Autosport. That made the game more challenging. 7. Have in-race objectives like in Autosport. 8. More tracks please (Hockenheim, Mazda, Suzuka, Nurburg ring, etc) 9. Polish the ultra HD texture-packs. The game just looks like a DLC of Autosport. So outdated. 10. Introduce Rally Cross (If Dirt 4 and Rally can have it I see no reason not to have it here) 11. More indurance races (can you please just make it a whole category of events?) 12. Ghosts in Free-play with a test-drive mode. 13. Introduce test-drive mode in the quick-tune menu

    I would like to have a statistics menu I want to see how many races I've done, wins, losses,... and a tracker to see how many kilometers I have driven since this is important for the 'around the globe' trophy

    I think the most important thing is to have a more feature-rich multiplayer compared to our current barebones situation. A lot of the feedback on this thread have already made some great suggestions. Please work on the multiplayer. I also hope that the future dlc will include much needed modes like Touge, Drift and Destruction Derby. I also wish the career would have been more like the original Racedriver:Grid but it's probably too late to change that. I really want this game to be great.

    Please, race length in career. A 2 minute race is not a race, is a quick fight to get to the top. Please, please. Grid Autosport nailed it

    From a simracer perspective - Bigger / better FOV control. Right now the dash view is too close and the driver cam is too far away ( even at it's smallest fov) - Seat adjustments like in Dirt Rally 2 / F1 2019 (forward backwards / Up and Down) - Better rear view mirrow ( to high and flat ) - Abilility to move the HUD, The timing display is dead center in your view, which is quite annoying - Ability to adjust the length of the races in the career mode. At very hard the AI has a too big of a headstart to overtake, eventhough i'm much faster. I run out of laps before i can catch the leader.

    -Increase Damage to previous Grid levels. Atm Grid AS on ios and switch has more deformation and parts losing ability than Grid 2019. You can’t even lose doors, wheels, sidemirrors, wings etc now. Even the lights keep functioning after a 100 mph crash! -Increases or give a slider for camera shake. Makes for a more visceral experience when you land jumps or make contact. -Options to disable auto reset when rollovers happen. Resetting rollovers is tragic for a Grid game which is known for it’s amazing crashes! -Option to disable disqualifications for wrong way. This only matters if the damage is increased though, since in older titles it was fun to crash head on into oncoming traffic. I remember in a Grid 2 showcase event, the developers themselves crashed into opposing car’s going the wrong way to show off damage. Oh how times have changed.

    Multiplayer needs a serious re-design. Would much prefer quick lobbies of chosen car class and private lobbies. A similar format to GAS would be great personally. And what is with the AI in multilayer? Options not to have lobbies by class, and AI in online make me wonder just how little faith codies had in this game to have any sort of decent player base, but I can't help but think it's going to die out unless these issues are fixed. I remember GAS, the NWR guys, the crazy Scottish bloke, Flukey and his Mrs, team rivalries that made we want to get on everyday on put points on the board. Good old days!

    Drat! I was beaten AGAIN! First on the Havana thread, second here. Well, I need to increase my pace Allow us to change our sponsors, even if only some are available for some liveries (Like No Fear for Motorsport, or ADVAN for JDM) Bringing back drifting for FREE with free cars dedicated to the mode would bring back a majority of the community.
