Codies, tell that Chaucer fella I had a hard time understanding Canterbury Tales let alone this Dirt Rally 2.0 b.s.

Here are my final 2 stages of Finland. Almost lost it at the house jump on final stage, but managed one of those old Project Gotham 360 degree spins to salvage it. https://youtu.be/JiVFthB7gVw

Greece was a ton of fun. Had a puncture on a long stage and stupidly decided against fixing it. Other than that and Phil’s “boot cut” call that throws me off (off the cliff literally) twice in the rally it was intense fun. When I have a good clean stage and see some of the leader’s times and how much faster they are especially on Greece it’s shocking. I run default setup and don’t practice / memorize the stages before going but still these guys are scary good to be that fast. Currently am in 642nd or around about. https://youtu.be/8Jtsm5_X6Io https://youtu.be/MjfR7lI8s_0

Skyrex those videos are invaluable and much appreciated. I am sure it takes a lot of work.

I would like to be able to filter for default / custom setups on the leaderboard like I believe you can on F1 2019.

I think it’s possible we overestimate the stomach gamers today have for games that punish mistakes like this. Great, challenging games heavy on memorization like Battletoads (probably showing my age) would be likely shunned if they came out today. This was the first driving game I’ve invested this much time and money into (I bought a wheel and chair just for DR2.0) in a long time precisely because I read how challenging it was. The Dark Souls of driving games is how many reviewers pegged this. Super fun game and rewarding because of its difficulty, it will go down in my top games of all time, but there are times the punishment for making a single mistake is huge and that’s a turn off for many people if you don’t have “stick with itism.” DR2.0 is like the bike level in Battletoads essentially for the entire game. That level broke some kids back in the day. 🙂

I couldn’t get it to pop on in the replay, but co-driver in Poland really is late with calls sometimes. I was in air off that jump when he was like “oh btw there is a 3 left whenever you land.” 99% of the time crashes are my fault, but this one was his. 🙂

When your lights start failing in a night stage and you try to hold it together...not many games replicate that feeling imo.

Big jump, still amazed at the graphics in this game.... https://youtu.be/Fwjjy3ku5RM https://youtu.be/6cOXO5Ah0Sw
