The interior of DR was place holder, it was confirmed at that time, that  it was from Impreza s4 from 1998

Gives them a good starting point for the car that they recorded earlier in the year...

Well...there is nothing wrong with expressing one's opinion, but before doing so one must be well informed before disputing and disrespecting the work of the devs. I have my self found several defects in the game, but we must try to work together to improve it ...

Absolutely. It's definitely worth pointing out inaccuracies as they do seem to get picked up on.

As long as you do it in a constructive manner you should absolutely critique the flaws/inaccuracies. If you come along with a mockful post about the interior being downgraded when they actually just modeled the correct one this time, you should be prepared to get some jabs back.

The interior texture resolution seems to have been taken down a few notches in DR2.  Back in DR1 Paul Bragged about the artists even reproducing fingerprints on the dash, this time they are almost a little blurry.  Not a game braker, mostly notice them in screen shots.

The interior downgrade on the Impreza 2001 is absolutely hilarious. Peak comedy material right there and I didn't even have to pay to get a chuckle out of it. Did you guys let the intern scribble up a design for the gear and rpm indicator and accidentally shipped it? Also nice plastic vents, straight out of the bargain bin GM trim catalog.

How do you even end up with LESS details in a sequel. Copy AND paste button broke too?

Tommy, we need your help again!

Textures overall seems to have taken a hit compared to DR. Road textures are also pretty bland in many cases. I guess it's a multi platform thing?

It's what's on the outside that matters... 😛

DR1 seemed to do the alcantara dash better.

Textures as a whole are better...

Do anyone have a explanation of the sudden surge of active DR1 playes? Looks really strange. 

A protest against WRC8 EPIC store exclusive maybee 😉

People couldn't wait for Greece 😉

 

(Seriously though, it's the Humble freebie 🙂)

[gfRally 449]

sooo what could be the secret in 1.8? Im calling it the got Paul to read notes as an option 😋

[tjetfiat 50]

That for Greece..... Surprise PJ? 

[pyide 53]

Speaking of the 2001 Subaru interior, what's up with these always overbright bits in the dash?

It's real distracting, looks so unnatural in action.

If it behaves like the old forums, page count differs for admins since deleted posts are included for them.

This is also serves as some good marketing for DR2.0. Let's say DR1 freebie will serve as a test for those who wanted to try it but not hard enough to purchase it. If they like it good enough, they might come to 2.0, so overall it's good.

As for the 1.8 surprise, of course it has to be the 2001 Xsara

What I find interesting is why "that" isn't written in bold like the other words. I remember a long time ago Paul and some other forum members sometimes talked about "that" car, did it ever make it into Dirt Rally? Can't remember anymore.

[JorritVD 1,236]

I just wondering if the suprise is something we have mentioned though, but we not expected it to come now?

I almost can't imagine it, that it will be something we never mentioned in the forums.

Was "That" not referring to a Toyota?

Also there is the trophy "Fire up THAT car again". Maybe a Group B RX Quattro?

Stage generator?

[AlexSpartan316 433]

I really hope for a modern era wrc...like the ds3 or maybe second gen fiesta...

[richie 522]

I wouldn't read too much into it. Sometimes you underline to emphasize, sometimes you write in bold or just use italic. ^^

[AlexSpartan316 433]

Or maybe the return of the polo wrc 😮
