    Am I the only one who isn't upset that buying content day 1 means you pay more than someone who waits 6 months? You pay extra for the privilege of playing before people who want to be frugal. Yeah, I think it's kind of lame to not discount the latest season at least a bit for the Deluxe owners, but then I remember season 4 isn't even fully released yet. You're asking for a discount on content that is still being released. What other company has ever been like "oh here is some new DLC for you all to buy, want us to go 50% off 2 weeks after releasing it???" The reason the BIG bundle is discounted is to help bring in more people to the playerbase. Discounting the DLC by itself isn't going to do that, those people already are part of the playerbase. But if you're trying to bring in new fresh drivers during the holidays you discount the base content or the deluxe bundles. It isn't rocket science.

    Lol that Lancia 037 at 2:50 takes corners just like I do - with zero regard for the road signage

    Hello,  I have played the original Overlord game aswell as Overlord 2, and I really enjoyed it, and I even play them to this day and I really wish Codemasters and Triumph games would make Overlord 3, or for my part sell the rights to another company that wants to expand the Overlord universe,  I know many loyal Overlord fans are dying to know what's next and are really looking forward to a prequel long overdue. As many of you know, the fourth Overlord (the one you play in Overlord 2) died because of the shining and one of the netherghuls (from Fellowship of evil) is overlord now.. but the third Overlord (the one you play in the original Overlord game) is still trapped within the Infernal Abyss, Gnarl even mentions him a couple of times in Overlord 2 and Fellowship of evil... I for one really hope he can escape so we can play as him again. I have send emails to Codemasters before but they are focusing on other games and thats why I need the help of all loyal Overlord fans to change their minds, so please give this discussion a lot of attention so we may see this story continue.

    1st - It all started with not working wipers, its a rare thing in this game that something not working. 2nd - someone was active, fight against criticism with removing comments , nice 🙂 you can achieve even more, you can start banning people I VOTE FOR ME 🙂 After 5-6 years and 10 games in my inventory, i just dont care anymore . You hit rock bottom !! Now lets see how much of sense for humor u have: who's up for banning me, react with thumbs up !! 😂

    @Mike Dee Nah, I’m the same - I buy very few games Day 1, usually wait until a sale and the worst issues are patched, so happy to have done with this one, it was always playable for me. Same with anything in life - after I bought my car, Seat offered it 6 months later for a lot cheaper with a load of extras, I was hardly mad at them.

    I find the AI is inconsistent between circuits. I can comfortably match the pace of the AI on some circuits, but really struggle on some of the newer ones (especially Mettet).

    Yeah privilege might not be the best word for it, but you're essentially paying premium to ensure you get to play it day 1. And I'm totally ok with that for certain games, DiRT being one of them. Not $35 on Steam right now, but I almost bought a copy of the original Deluxe ($24) to give away on stream last night cuz it is so damn cheap haha.

    It depends. You are right for sure. I wasn't early adopter so I don't care too much. But from economy perspective you need as much as possible day 1 buyers. They are the people who pay for the development and help you a lot. If you don't care about them and think some sale casuals will pay for your development it's OK. It's possible, we will see. So I understand that being a first player is a privilege for you. It's not for me here, maybe in different games. But it's a good point. Will it work? Hardly. I would say bundle discount only gets away real fans who paid. As always there are several perspectives.

    I'd be too embarassed to tell people what I did. I'll stick to trolling where it's due and paying it forward 😉

    there's a thread talking about this actually. can't find it now, but the consensus was basically that the WRC would probably want a game that was only about the WRC, so there's a good chance we'd lose any non-WRC locations, cars and disciplines (and possibly even many of the older cars). they'd also want it more accessible for more casual fans, so more like the regular Dirt series than Dirt Rally.

    My first post here, but I figured I would chime in since I have put a lot of time in on WRC 8. I play on an Xbox One X and had been using a Thrustmaster TX. It took some time to dial in but the FFB was really good once I got the wheel right. If felt better than DR and DR2.0 The default setups and quick adjustments for the car setups suck. To get the cars to actually handle properly, especially at slow speed, you have to setup the suspension and diff for each location. The physics shine once this is done. There still are some strange physics things going on though. There are invisible puddles sometimes, and the car's reaction to puddles and water spots is way over-tuned. It is also not predictable based on your angle of entry, throttle position, or speed. You also get no feedback from running over some larger rocks or brush on the side of the stage. Curbs on tarmac stages are the exception. Speaking of tarmac, the physics here are really good. The WRC cars tend to still be a little floaty, but proper suspension and diff tuning help with this. Back to the FFB. I just upgraded this week to a CSL Elite 1.1 with the R330 wheel and universal hub and CSL Elite LC pedals. The LC brake has made a huge difference, but it feels better in DR and DR2. The FFB in DR and DR2.0 now feel light-years beyond WRC 8 with my new hardware. I still have some tuning to do, but WRC 8 feels like canned feedback and vibrations now, to where DR and DR2 feel more natural; how I would expect the car and wheel to react. Tarmac still does feel better than the DR games, but even this has improved with the new wheel. And let's talk about fps on console. It runs fairly smooth for 30fps on my One X. BUT......the low fps starts compounding problems as you get faster. When I had the TX dialed in with the car settings right, I was able to push top 25 in a number of stages, but at this speed the frame stutter and graphics wash out was interfering with the physics and my ability to react. TL;DR is that WRC 8 is a good game. It has its issues as does DR and DR2, but it's good. I would recommend if you want to play it seriously, do so on PC. The 30 fps limit on consoles will eventually hold you back. For asphalt rallies, it is much better than DR/DR2. On gravel, I still prefer DR/DR2. My dream come true would be for CM to get the WRC license and make a fully licensed WRC rally game with DR2 gravel physics and proper asphalt physics.

    Yeah, I thought the Audi felt a little bit slower, but more stable when hard cornering (the Loheac joker is where I really noticed it). I'd say the Peugeot 208 should be the fastest, but I definitely don't think that was the case with the 2018 cars. Agree about tyre wear as well @JorritVD, that would add a whole new dimension to the rallycross!

    Thank you kaylos, Ive reinstalled the game again, did what you said....thank you thank you thank you.......Yes its playable again now..... I noticed on dirt 2 wheel friction and tyre friction where there as well, i don't know if they have always been, but that game felt weird yesterday so turned that off as well..... What weird settings they added, wonder why as it made the game rubbish, no control, horrible force feedback etc...

    i suggest: 1 - this has a equal amount of tracks to grid auto sport (or more) ! 2 - multiplayer has options like previous grid games to pick (what, where, how long). 3 - would like chat please ! ! ! & to spectate races. simple suggestions i feel i shouldn't have to ask for to begin with. if full filled i think grid 2019 is a better game then G.A.S. (Optional) more then 2 racing modes like previous games. Don't care for "fluff or filler" items like cards, dances, clothing, balloons, explosions .......etc ! i want to continue being a "repeat" customer 🥰
