    I'm posting to help :classic_smile:. I have seen posts relating to every sort of challenge as part of the current bug: daily, VIP and Series. Your issue is not unique. All challenges that relate to finishing races are affected, and some others (e.g. the filling the My Team schedule one).

    For info. I have completed challenges in qualifying in GP mode, so I think it's more to do with finishing races than this specific mode.

    I totally agree it's frustrating! I wish it were possible to revert to previous patches. If it were then everyone would have been able to solve the current issue for themselves.

    It is definitely related to the Grand Prix-Mode, because a VIP-Challenge, that didn't unlocked in Grand Prix in several tries, unlocked right away in Driver Career-Mode. It was the Silverstone 3 best times one.

    There are several other threads in this section relating to this issue already.

    I know, but not exactly my issue.
    VIP-Challenges will just go away after this season, but I can't get the livery without a solution to my problem.

    I also know there are some reports of series challenges not unlocking, but not exactly mine.

    You don't need to comment every single post here and act like a mod.
    I've been watching this forum very closely for some time.

    For info. I've found that I can still complete challenges that don't relate to finishing races, like achieving pole positions or setting particular times.

    I completed everything else, only 6 VIP-Challenges and this 1 Series Challenge, all related to the Grand Prix-Mode, are not unlocking.
    Seems they messed it up with one of the patches.

    All the work put in to do all these tasks, many of them I only did to get the livery, because some are very annoying...and now I don't get it.

    Frustrating.

  4. Well, don't know what happened to the other competitors, but I had a quite smooth and fast rally without any noticable big mistakes.
    There was a stage (I believe it was SS4) were I touched about 4 times the bank and every single time thought: "Please no puncture, please!" 🤣

    The car had almost no grip anymore towards the end in SS3 & SS6, so it got a bit tricky, thinking about using mediums in Australia, because it should get even worse there.


  5. This is just dump straight in your face advertising.

    BUY OUR NEW GAME, NOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I won't buy anything anymore from Codemasters, before this doesn't stop.
    I'm not your cashcow, Codemasters, stop trying to force me.

    Wouldn't have bought this game anyway, would have shown the wrong sign to the Publisher.
    Project CARS 3 and DiRT 5 are trash in my view.
    No respect to developers, who just try to jump on the FH4-bandwagon.

    Masters in DR1 was the perfect balance of very high difficulty but ultimately achievable. Masters on DR2 is much, much harder than Elite and even harder than Masters on DR1. As a result I place mid to low table on every really, never getting a podium, so career is basically over for me now since if it isn't competitive it isn't fun. Worse yet there is no option to drop back down to pro or elite 

    Is it in every car class like that for you?
    I know there are some classes in some locations (like poland as an example) were the AI is especially hard.
    H2 FWD and R2 I remember were very hard.

    You also could make it even harder if you choose a slightly less competitive car like the Escort in Group A.

     

    I achieved also a win in Masters in DR1 and beat Elite on DR2.0 quite dominant, but never tried Masters, because of a technical problem wich is resolved since a while.
    So I maybe try that out and see, if it is really that hard.
    Just need to decide what class I will use...
    In what class you tried it?

    what is wrong with this game ??
    at the daily event in argentina you drive subaru legacy from the start 15km/h and then the car stops and crawls on with 9km/h !!
    The ******* car just won't drive !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Even with manual gear shift the car just won't drive forward

    1) That's the wrong thread for a bug report.
    2) Could you please stop writing in that "give me attention" type of style?
    3) Did you checked you're controller/wheel? The input settings? Is the car maybe damaged? Transmission, engine, turbo?

    Are there any plans to adjust it?  because this is ridiculous. Number 1 AI sets the same time as 12th fastest player in the world.

    Don't look at the placement.
    Look at the time gap between 1st in the world and that 12th place. More than 21 seconds. Quite much room for improvement.
    (I don't say it's easy.)

    Well I don't know what's changed but in DR1 I won the masters after a lot of hard work. I jumped straight into DR2 and worked my way to Masters but the gap between elite and masters is next level. Masters on 2 is like Pro on DR1. I'm not even competitive at this level meaning career is now pretty boring to play. 

    Masters on 2 is like Pro on DR1?
    And you beat Masters in DR1 you said...sooo? Is there a misunderstanding?
    What's the problem?

    Is the career too hard or too easy for you? I'm honestly not sure.

    So, PCARS 3 has launched to much controversy, but also to very good reviews in the mainstream press. This is potentially scary for us.

    Imagine if what happened to PCARS fans happened to us... that Dirt Rally 3.0 dialled-down its 'simulator-ness'? We'd be rightly horrified.

    I can think of two reasons why it hopefully won't happen that way:

    1. DR2.0 was a financial success, and the sequel is in the hands of Ross Gowing and others behind 2.0. Would they ditch realistic physics and handling? They know their fanbase want ever-more authenticity and realism, right? Right??

    I'm definitely horrified.

    Not only because of arcady physics and gameplay wich more and more dominates the racing game genre, it's the Fortnitification wich annoys me hard.
    Forza Horizon 4, The Crew 2, DiRT 5 and Project CARS 3, to name a few, are all disgusting looking racing games in my view.

    Bright awful looking colors just everywhere, just to say "hey look, colors, wohoo".
    Start/Finish/within the race firework explosions for whatever reason.
    Always a commentator, who doesn't stop talking nonsense.

    Just to keep the attention high for the 10 year old Fortnite mayfly crowd.

    I watched a 8 minute gameplay vid of Project CARS 3 yesterday and there were already 3-4 things i'd asked myself: "could I disable that?"

    I am not too worried at the moment, as I'd like to think the powers that be at Codemasters will have seen how the previous incarnations of the DiRT series (and the differing approaches taken by each) have been received. 

    They have already declared what directions the DiRT teams are heading in, and the fact that there are two teams makes me hopeful that the DR series is going to remain sim-orientated.

    That is just PR-talking.
    I'm a gamer since around 25 years.
    If I learned one thing in my favourite hobby, than you need gameplay material to prove it.
    Or atleast a concrete plan from the officials.

    They could keep the awesome physics, but still ruin it with idiotic design decisions.

    I want authenticity, not only in the physics area of the game.

    Honestly: DR2.0 just needs a proper offline career mode with team contracts and proper seasons were you move up the classes and some sort of progression.
    The rest of the game is quite perfect in my view.

    No.

    DR2 is a flashier game with some things that hardcore fans dislike in order to appeal to a (slightly) broader audience. and the driving physics are improved.

    Hm? I don't see much difference to the previous entry in that area.
    Any examples?

    (I didn't @ you, I quoted you 😜)

    Help please, I have xbox game of the year edition but cant find anywhere the Porsche 911 RGT rally spec car.

    I have the M2, aston, mustang etc but no Porsche, does anyone else have the issue or am I missing something

    Same here. Got Game of the year edition DVD, where there was regular Dirt Rally 2.0 DVD and code for DiRT Rally 2.0 Year One Pass. I installed the add-on but there was no Porsche 911 RGT .

    Should there be Porsche 911 RGT when buying physical Game of the year edition?

    So, I assume you guys looked in the "ready to install"-section of the game in "my games & apps" on the xbox dashboard!?

    If it's not there, search for the Porsche in the microsoft store, should be free.

    The Porsche 911 RGT Rally Spec was originally a pre-order dlc and has it's own download, so maybe you have to download it manually from the store.

    Issue: AI after the finish got top time

    I'm sure it's a bug, it's not about my skills.

    @SKYNET925

    Look at the service-area menu before the race after the option "race order".
    Look at what position you start in your class.

    If you not start as the last driver, you probably got the reason why you coming in first, but in the end you are not.
    The AI who starts last is most of the time the fastest of the AI-drivers.

    Being the fastest while actually running, doesn't mean there isn't a driver driving AFTER you, who can beat you.
    That's a rally-thing and not a bug.

    Constant game crashing after every stage in every game mode. Freezes and then crashes. Even when stopping kid stage and trying to return to menu causes game to crash and sends me back to xbox home.

    Xbox One X

    G920 wheel bit also isdue also present when using a controller.

    Has been happening ever since Flatout was released.

    Update 1.15 seems to have made it worse - wasn't affecting Time Trial but now is.

    Game is amazing but has been unplayable for months now. I am at a complete loss.

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game and all 60 dlc files. No change.

    Game is completely broken for me. I can drive a stage but then crash, restart game, try stage again, crash, reload, repeat ad infinitum.

    Please help!

    Please ignore all the typos in previous post.

    Update: just tried playing offline - flatout stage: I stopped after a couple of corners, tried to exit to menu and the game froze and crashed me out to xbox home. So exactly the same issue offline or online. 

    @Olly101

    Do you wanna try a solution?
    I'm on X-Box One S and had also constant crashes for months. Not everywhere like you, but on several specific points in the game.
    But I found a fix and I'm pretty sure that the updates in the past are responsible for these crashes.
    The game never crashed again since early april and I play A LOT!

    I had that typical "weird constant sound + freeze and then auto-kick to dashboard"-thing like you describe.

    Here is MAYBE the solution:

    From main menu go to options & extras -> profile -> save settings -> reset progress (first option) NOT THE OTHER TWO! DON'T TOUCH THEM!
    Read the text on the right side what you will lose, Colin McRae-Scenario-progress is also gone then.

    You will not lose your My-Team-Cars and stats, only the current championship will be gone.

    But it worked for me and some other dude I gave that solution.
    It seems some update in the past could corrupt your save file for something in there.

    Hope it helps.

    @PJTierney Did you guys changed the description? It is much more detailed now what you will lose doing that, at least in german.
    Good thing 👍

    Again split by platform and in TT format? The xbox people better step it up this time otherwise I'll regret not buying one for an easy spot. Sounds harsh but it was the reality last time around. Apart from maybe 1-2 people there were 50-100 faster people that could've gotten those qualifier spots based on their times.

    The X-Box-Userbase is probably MUCH smaller than on the other two platforms.
    So it is much easier for an top leaderboard-driver to shine.
    I'm on X-Box and still won't qualify for one of the spots probably, not good enough.
    Don't wanna go on a stage anyway.


  13. I believe these are two different things.

    The 5 options in clubs are fixed, so everyone has the same conditions when driving.
    The 4 options in custom change with every car starting before you.

    For the latter:

    Full = The track is fully degraded from the beginning.
    Authentic = The track is degraded depending on how many cars ran the track before you.
    Optimal = The track is always in optimal condition.
    None = The track is completely untouched when driving.

     

    These are my guesses, could be wrong, but I think that makes sense.

    No, it's decreased. @UnderclassGDfan was the one that reported AI performance I believe, and it was tested/confirmed.

    Did I? Errr...I can't remember, lol 🤣

    It's an entirely new car. The current car is Ford Fiesta R5 (I put MKI in front of it to make it easier to tell the two apart), the new car will be Ford Fiesta R5 MKII.

     

    Take a look in Rallycross and see how many Ford Fiestas are in there 😄 

    I think his question was, when the new Fiesta comes into the game, if the old one gets removed.
    But that would be...not a good idea.
    And I doubt it.

     

    By the way...A NEW CAR? WOHOHOOOO! 😍

    I hope this will be handeled like the M2 Competition, so it gets available normally after half a year or so.

    And some good fixes in that update, too.
    The DiRT Rally-Team knows how to make me happy over and over again!
    Well, that sounds weird!

    Come on, we've been talking about the i20 RX specifically for a long long time, and nobody has ever said "it's not coming", in fact the complete opposite! There have been so many clues that it could be coming from outside sources.

    Either way, something has been teased a lot leading up to this update and for it to just be a single livery is just a slap in the face...

    Maybe I'm wrong. Just guessing.

    I'm not interested in RX much, so I just can hope for you guys. But I doubt it.


  16. I think, that is the surprise 😃

    The livery looks cool, though 👍

     

    I don't get why you guys expect anything content related, PJ said multiple times the game is finished content-wise.
    No new cars, locations, game modes or features.

    A new cool livery was one of the best things to be expected in my opinion and I hoped for.

     

    Let's just hope the next DiRT Rally doesn't take too long and won't get eaten by DiRT 5...


  17. Errghf...what a season.

    Second half was a bit better, but...meh.

    Had a very good chance to win in Poland, but ruined it with a very LIGHT ditch on a bank.
    But the tyre said haha to me.

    Anyway...

    Congratulations to @Janneman60 who deserved the victory and also to @denim398, who was sometimes unbeatable fast for me.

    Regarding my decision for the next championship: I choose Scotland to be completely dry, no wet surface or rain at any time.
    If Scotland is the drop out-rally, wich I doubt, then the same for Wales.

    And my personal opinion is, we should open up the forced cockpit cam restriction, because that keeps players away maybe.
    I mean, we can always put it back to restricted after a while, but for the moment, we need more racers.

    For me personally it is more important, that everybody sticks to the 1 car per championship rule and does not cut like a maniac.
    I refuse to leave the track with all 4 wheels at any time, even it is faster.

    Graphics-wise, I have no issue with how the game looks on Xbox One X either. Bear in mind my Xbox (when I play on the racing rig) is permanently hooked up to my capture hardware, so I get 4K images but no HDR.

    The graphics-thing was only related to DR1. But not sure if it was overreaction, because I experienced also some graphics issues in DR1, but not everytime, more like once in 50h of playtime.

     

    The Farmkhana vid is supercool.
    Nice livery, awesome music, cool drifts!
