9.5? The latest PC one was 17, just happened to pop up when I wanted to do something else.

What is EA's attitude towards modders, that would have to be taken into account going forwards.

Nice one guys!

Motorbike stunts and zombies, what's not to love!? I guess, as regards the future of this series goes, we'll just have to wait and see.....

Sometimes, I'm inclined to agree about the need to save replays. However, you can have waaay too many of them. I remember when I came to uninstall Project Cars, I had up to 100gb full of replays that I recorded but never watched again. If there were a limited number of save slots then it could maybe work, you'd be more selective about what you saved then.

Whatever anyone else thinks, I like that Singer rally Porsche and if it was in a game I'd be happy. The one car I enjoyed most in Dirt Rally was a mod and it was the Colin McRae designed rally car, I really enjoyed throwing it around. Pity it wasn't actually in the game or the sequel. It reminded me of the Singer Porsche. Just because one person doesn't like it, it doesn't mean everyone will share that view.

Don't even know if anyone has the terrestrial rights yet.

After what's been happening, I'd say that calendar is strictly provisional.

So, were there no more rally events in 2020 after Turkey!?

I just stick to the bits where all the cars are free, that's what I enjoy.

Of course, in the classic games, everything was offline. Could it have been better for it?

And faith is restored!

Alright! Some good news during Christmas 2020, I'll take that!

Will this forum cease to exist after EA fully take over!?

Massive promotional hype and nothing in the actual game that the hype promoted.

Fair enough then. EA games seem to be style over content to me, with all the typical hype that goes with that.

Oh, phew! That''s something at least. With Codies in its current state you can get games straight from Steam without any middle-men, you won't get that again.

Pound to a penny all rally titles will be obliged to feature Ken Block.

EA killed Burnout, and I dread to think what they might do with any Codies titles. Maybe we should make the most of DR 2.0 as it could be a last hurrah.......

Can you do it with a controller!?

Unless you can rally in Cyberpunk 2077, you should still get some people hanging around here!

It was the way the settings were implemented in PC2, you couldn't make the same adjustments that you could in PC1 so you couldn't replicate the data. It was the same with DR1 and DR2.0. Most of the setups I used in DR1 were from Steam workshops so I had no idea what the adjustments were, I just loaded the settings up and off I went. When they ditched that format for DR2.0, I pretty much had to start from scratch as I'd never used the setup screens before. I would download Rally Technical's videos, go over them frame by frame, write down what the settings were and then put them into the game. It was a lot of hassle, but was worth it in the end.

When I found a usable setup for a car, I tended to use it on all tracks and it worked really well. On tarmac circuits you could get away with that. With rally stages, however, you needed to adjust for each location which was why @2Technical was a godsend. Some of the guys on the PC1 setup database were using data from real cars and boy were their setups good, they were from real drivers and teams and not just players in their bedrooms. That's what I've been missing from driving games since then.

Nice, can you put a word in!? @2Technical certainly gets my vote.

I think it would be nice if default tuning could be something that has actually been set up by someone that knows what they're doing, especially if you don't. If you download a setup, assuming you can, nine times out of ten it's made by an alien with a steering wheel and meaningless to someone with a controller. If you have a controller, there ought to be a default setup you could load that would enable you to really get the most out of the car right out of the box. Not all of us are Rally Technical (The artist formerly known as GTR Technical!), though I will say that his DR 2.0 setups work brilliantly even with a controller. What I loved in PC1 was the setup database, I got so much out of that site. I learned so much from that and was able to start making my own setups. Then, everything changed when PC2 came out and hardly any of the data I got from the first game looked like it could be applied to the second. That is the one thing holding me back a little from AMS2, lack of setup data from other players, if someone like Rally Technical would do likewise with games like AMS2 it would be a massive help. EDIT: Mmmmm, ok, Just looking at a video regarding AMS2 setups, and, you can see in the list of downloadable ghost setups which control method they used, be it controller or steering wheel. Now we're talking! This game gets better and better!
