In my opinion the updated DR locations have been of a very high quality. I like them better than the base game DR2 locations and also better than the original DR versions. I'd be very happy to pay for Finland and Greece.

It'll come sometime today I'm sure.

@PJTierney I asked you a couple months ago what the status was of the forthcoming FFB updates that @ChristinaMc mentioned before she left. Is that still on the cards?

These two cars are just crazy fun. Best car DLC yet. Thought the 037 was maybe too stable at first but I quickly learned how it betrays you the closer you get to the limit of the thing. The understeer in the long corners really reveal itself once you're going at speed, making sure that if you crash it's fatal. The snap oversteer also comes when you most need it to stick - especially in Monte. The 911 is slower overall, and a bit looser but it's quite predictable at all speeds. It's biggest downside is when the weight as at the rear and it fails to turn in.

Just released!

Is Latvia releasing on Steam in 45 minutes?

How are you getting on with the input configuration options in-game? Well enough. Are they easy to find, easy to understand? They are. Is it easy to understand in-game what each of the settings mean and do? Not always, but there is the pdf. Is there anything in this regard you think the team could do better in the future? I wish I could select a device to control the user interface seperate from the device to drive in the game. Also the UI buttons mean nothing to me when it just says '11' or '12'. I wish I could select my Xbox gamepad as user interface device. More descriptions in the game. Support for actions such as press & hold or key combinations. How are you finding the in-game tools and configuration options? Good. How do you feel about how the game handles external configuration files? No experience. What are your thoughts on how the game handles multiple input devices, and switching between them? Pretty good, however, the current setup with the inputs overriding eachother causes issues particularly with replays where the position of my wheel makes me unable to fast forward or reverse it sometimes.

@PJTierney Before @ChristinaMc left she mentioned that the FFB released with 1.4 wasn't finished and we'll be seeing more improvements. In light of the 1.5 patchnotes, do you know if that is still on the cards?

I'd like it for something beyond season 3&4, if we ever get that lucky. H2H (SSS), Hillclimb, alternative layouts for RX, more stages for current locations, YourStage with tiles from ingame locations... The potential for variety and growth is very large. These are all things they've done before in DiRT titles - just seperate.

I think it's by design, but who knows they might change this in the future. I'd like to see it too. @PJTierney If your game is screwed because of all the fiddling just use Steam's 'verify integrity of game files' function.

That's the maximum amount of droplets that appear on the windscreen though, so there's literally no reason to turn on the wipers.

Same here, saw the deer during a daily but no unexpected moments since Monte Carlo.

I do mind, a lot.

Looks really flat terrain which would be different.

@2Technical Your setups are perfect because they feel so nice and balanced. Hope you'll tackle Group B sometime!

Yeah I don't wanna lose historic or WRX progress for it.

How do you mean reset your profile?

See ya tomorrow @andmcq

By far the easiest to drive in that class! Bit slow though.

Don't know for sure and I can't check it now, but I think they fixed the Mitsubishi Mirage R5 headlight transparency.

Seems pretty much confirmed to me

Really lovely that they fixed this, I didn't expect them to!

Didn't he set fire to his rare cossie with the codriver still inside? I could probably do better.

Agreed, the Gossip thread is all about being wrong. The other threads on this forum are about everyone else being wrong but not you.
