Try disabling it and you'll see. 😛

He stops waving and motions his hands for you to "stop" when you get close enough. You won't see it if you blast past him at 150 though.

Yes, this was V1 handling. The cars had a little too much grip but the movement was extremely good.

No, it's not moot because it looked 95,000% better in DR1 before they ruined it. And who mentioned RBR?

It still doesn't look or feel even remotely realistic, so please stop praising it. You don't even need to look at a replay for 5 seconds before seeing that something is seriously wrong.

I've amused myself with the Ascona, Sierra, Fabia R5, Stratos, and the Delta S4 this weekend. I spanked one of my old PB's in NZ by a whooping 47 seconds!

Seems you do not understand how a rally sim should work. Complaining about tiny things that will most likely be fixed in future patches for the sole purpose of clinging onto a mediocre predecessor, I simply cannot see the point of. Why not focus on the actual problems, like the tarmac handling? I'd personally like to see them fixed before anything else. EDIT: Meh, whatever. Sorry for derailing your topic, but like I said... they won't add anything to DR1. They are done with it. I just think this suggestion is pointless because nothing will come of it.

Fine, it currently does one thing better than DR2, and that is the FFB. Which wasn't even there from the beginning, and will be fixed with a patch for DR2 anyway. And sorry, but they will not add anything to DR1 at this point. You'd have to ask a modder or something to help you. Codemasters are done with DR1.

My point is DR wasn't perfect when it was released. And then it was made even worse with the V2 physics update. And people still treat it like it was crapped out by God himself and proceeds to worship it. Well, it's **** alright. DR2 does everything better, simple as that.

DR1 didn't even have FFB when it was released. All it gave the drivers was resistance in the wheel - which was fixed in a later patch. I can imagine the same thing will happen to this title. DR2 kicks DR1's butt in every single aspect anyway. You need to take off your rosetinted glasses.

Monte is so much better than it was in DR.

Can I be a poop child too?

That would be because it's using the Mini Countryman sound from DR1, presumably also as a placeholder.

Skoda most definitely does not sound close to the real thing. Probably because it's using the sound of the 2007 Ford Focus WRC as a placeholder. 😉
