Should there be a Dirt Rally 2? more locations? Contract-style career?

Dirt rally rules !!!

More, more, more.............................more locations.

Anothers cars would be good too. But locations are the better way to improve the game. (Catalunya, Argentina, mexico, italy......) give me more.... ¿don´t you want my money????

The dilemma for Codemasters at this point in time is do they release DLC for Dirt rally or do they keep it for Dirt rally 2, ive no doubt they have stuff right now they could use but do they want to add to an already stellar game, or do they want to keep their powder dry and really blow everybody away with the next one with as much quality content as they can.

We might see a very small amount of DLC for dirt rally to keep hype train going but the bulk will be kept for the next one id think and i'd expect dirt rally 2 a lot sooner than people might think.

cheers

If its coming soon, Id be happy to wait for a 'new' package than have it drip-fed into the old one.

what we need is more countries and more unique tracks on Dirt1. The game gets old because all stages are actually the same one but with different layouts.

This has been CM weakest point since Dirt1. Lack of stages and content. That's why they give us lots of cars, but the important is the stages

I get very confused by effusive love of games by people... it is a game, if it works decently and plays well that is what it is supposed to do - that's what you are buying for your money.

Dirt Rally is OK.. as in OK.

It has a rapidly growing list of issues on XBox One and is simply not working that great at times.

It has a massive dirth of locations and stages. It lacks in game pictures and video editors, it lacks paint and deal editors

What we have for £40 is half a dozen locations and an Ai system which is very poor - games are meant to appeal to a wide church of people, not a few mouth foamers who think they can replace a long bonnet sports car with their alleged abilities on a video game... or is it a sim or maybe a simcade... LOL simcade...  some people....

This game needs a very serious amount of DLC because it get's old real quick... another 100 cars, another 100 stages would be a start. All for very little money, like £20 at most as the game came with so little

NB* Please do be aware, you, yes you, the one about to make some post about how I am talking rubbish and all the rest of the usual dross... I bought this game with my money, you did not not buy my copy.

So you play how you like, you do what you like, you think (sic) as you like ... but I have no interest in your opinion, as in zero, as in NONE. This message is for the Devs, not you. So please, keep it to yourself or go start up elsewhere... but do it away from me.

So very tired of so many people on these forums.

Seems like not having a xbone would solve some of your issues and having a bit of perspective would solve the rest. 100 cars! Lol why would you need that many cars in a rally game! I challenge you to name 100 more rally cars

Came back to gaming after a while and Dirt Rally has been a very pleasant surprise. This is definitely the way forward.

Mate its clear from your tone your a complete imbecile with NFI, yes the games a little short on stages but 100 cars?
This isnt gran tourismo, why would you need 100 cars? its quality over quantity and DR has plenty enough cars.
Yes there will be a DR2 in good time, DR will go onto be codies most successful and highly praised racer ever, its just taken them out of the red financially, its an outstanding game, great sound, great physics and handling, ive played every rally going, do you know how hard it is to get it right like codies has with this, quit your whinging and enjoy the game, 
Be bloody thankful you have a great rally to play.

@Drave mate, this game clearly isn't for you. Before this came out, the only other good Rally game was.......yup..not many. This is a Rally simulation, not a simcade, arcade or rewind because I made a mistake game. It's never been developed as that and was never sold as that. So for you to buy it with your hard earned money, in which I totally appreciate and understand your grievance, and then spout that post on a CM forum directed against CM Devs and make out like it's an actual educated and worthwhile comment? I have no words except that it is quite clearly you who is at fault for buying the game expecting something else. 
@V8SC Right? I've only joined the CM forum yesterday and this is yet another post from someone who clearly does not understand the game and then have a go at CM Devs for their own incompetence. I can't handle that at all man

Not for a long time. We need to stop with the yearly or bi-yearly releases in games and focus more on selling expandable platforms. Taking the approach of "Dying Light" would give this game a three year minimum lifespan.

More and more games are actually taking the route of DLC and Patch. A good example is Destiny or The Division, I don't see those games getting a sequel any time soon (different genre but same principles). I personally believe it makes the game a lot more 'bankable' from a consumer perspective as it shows that the Developers/publishers behind the game have a long term strategy for it and also actually take the community feedback into consideration.
A game like DR is never going to have a year upon year update a la COD, which I find is more a money making execution rather than a proper 'new' game. Off topic but I've given up on COD, it was fun but after getting a 'new' COD every November for the past 5yrs I can't help but think we're being fleeced....

Well of course there will be another Dirt, and it will be bigger and with more to do but christ on a bike can people not see the main work has gone into the game engine, this feels easily the most realistic rallying I've ever experienced so job No.1 done.

Yes it's a bit lean on tracks but you ain't getting through all the modes, cars and championships without putting 100 hrs into it so ask yourself the question; why are you entitled to more? Because Pcars has more cars? Because Forza has more tracks? By that logic every game should have a stock amount of content, but it doesn't because the central focus of every game is different. Rallying is a niche, specialist market and thus Codies have to be wiser with their money, smarter with building a solid game first not spaffing money on tons of licenses or spending months creating loads of courses only to find the game fell flat because it was just another arcade rally game.

It's a rally sim and it primarily does what it does well, they are building an authentic experience first- the 'big game' filler comes later.

While I agree that DiRT is the way to go, I can't for the life of me figure out how anybody is ignoring what they have right in front of them? Especially console players (I'm a PS4 guy) as we haven't had the game long enough. Some Drave dude was talking how the game is getting old...uh, does that mean that he can smash all competition in a Masters Championship? I sincerely doubt it, and if so, you're not human. Can you beat the Loeb's real time going up Pike's Peak? Again, I doubt it. So the question is, is it because you're not fast enough? If you're not that's okay, 'cause neither am I. The difference and dare I say the beauty and longevity  of the game lies in there. In fact, it's neverending because you can always go a tenth faster.

Yes, I would like to see more locations. Tour De Course anyone??? But at the moment, I've got my hands full enough, thank you very much. Let's enjoy DiRT Rally for a while, yeah?

Well we are going to have to enjoy what we have since we are years out from a hypothetical Dirt Rally 2 release. :smile:

@RinusRally
Dammit! Can't 'like' as well as 'disagree' your post..oh well....

I disagree with the engine being outdated, sure since it's first inception maybe but since then, there has been countless hours in making it better. Devs don't spend 3yrs coding a physics engine and then let it go stale; they'll keep adding to it, taking bits out, streamlining code, all the while you are still playing the game. Remember the Unreal engine? That's 18yrs since it was first unveiled to devs and its is currently in it's 4th incarnation. FYI, ego is now in it's 4th incarnation, and was actually developed from the Neon engine used in the first DiRT game. So, there are no such things as outdated engines (unless your talking about a dev house using a physics engine not touched since NES days)

I also disagree with a track editor....having one is going to take DiRT away from what it is and I personally think will dilute the experience. I won't mind if there will be one, I just won't be using it if there is. Not because I don't think it will be good but because I don't see the point of  player produced tracks on a game which is all about getting to take a Rally car into a stage which you may have just watched on TV and seeing how well you fare.
I do believe track editors in general are awesome,  I just don't think it would fit with the 'feel' of this game.

I can remember some corners on most tracks but not ALL of them. I rely on the Co-Driver (Paul is it??) and the pace-notes. 

I LIKE your last sentence:
"Thank you for disagreeing  "
Very nice and thoughtful of you to have added that lol

Also if there are much longer tracks people have to concentrate more etc. one moment of losing concentration can end you race or not! 

I do that even on short stages man!!

Dirt rally...hmmm I personally think code masters have done a fantastic job, yes the game can be difficult and demanding and so bloody hair pulling frustrating, but that's where the challenge comes in, when me and one of my friends got the game on release,the anticipation levels were high, he played it for a few days and nearly bounced his control pad through his 40in TV and has not played it since lol.... I on the other hand stuck with it buying cars and getting them fully upgraded,which BTW makes the cars more stable and better to drive, I love it..yes even when beads of sweat are running of my chin,and I've just flew over a mountain cliff side on the last piggin sector, audio graphics are superb, it's as good as it gets for now reckon,would be nice to have a another couple of dlc countries at some stage,but in the meantime congrats codies on a very good job

Codemasters are definitely back on the right track with DiRT Rally, this game will certainly last a long time. But it will need more locations eventually, as it will start becoming repetitive. Personally I'd like to see Codemasters go the same direction with the GRID games (although GRID Autosport was a step in the right direction already). Between DiRT or GRID as their next game (apart from F1), I'd like to see a new GRID first.

Should there be a DiRT Rally 2? Yes, but not yet.
