Hey guys,

Just wanted to stop by and say thank you, I can only really speak for myself now but it was glorious dancing with you all this last few years.

It was tough at times but you kept us on the straight and narrow... into five right caution overcrest tightens. :P But it was good fun and I don't think anybody on the DiRT team would argue with me in saying that you all genuinely played a huge part in making the game and I hope it's everything you wanted and more importantly that @tbtstt doesn't have to just sit on the sidelines and watch when it comes to console next year. 

Thanks for looking after @KickUp, @Hatward and the rest of the guys for me :)

Don't. Cut.

No, thank you

Ha! Thanks @justbiglee . Was rather frustrating not being able to contribute more after the visit last year: I have a lot of catching up to do come April next year!

Great to see you here again. Hope the "new life" is treating you well, don't be a stranger!

I noticed the Grp A Escort was popping about more off the gas as well.

Well spotted, the cars I believe have ALS now pop when on partial throttle, they used to only pop when fully off throttle.

Makes a difference eh :)

Indeed it does. Now we have more of this:

Holy smokes, those helicopter replays reaching me via youtube from Sweden looks insanely good! C'mon!!

This Polo is Insane.  Makes Grp B seem like cuddly teddy bears!  The car is a crack addict, the faster you drive it, the harder it wants to go!  It's happy to roll over mid-corner due to sheer pace & the hope of making it out the other side a few tenths quicker!! I love it!

if it's in any way indicative of the real one, it's no wonder the team walk away with every prize going!! 

(Tyres are still a bitch though) :(

Yeah, a great car that just begs you to go faster and test its limits - but then a tire pops in a easy landing and everything is ruined  :'(

For anyone wondering about the new cars sound, I have a cheap pair of Logitech 5.1 speakers tied to my chair, playing from internal view is as follows;

Polo: sounds great, nice backfire popping behind me.

Hyundai: Holy HELL!! Who let out the pissed off panther behind me?! It sounds like it hasn't eaten in 3 weeks and has it's eyes on me.

Ford Fiesta sound is really nice now with the antilag!
Is this placebo or the sequential gearbox is faster in some cars?

PP cars have sequential gearbox fixed, so it changes quickly. Not sure about other cars though. The Polo seemed to have a strangely slow shifting for a 2015 car...

I'm talking especially about the Fiesta RS Rally. I've helped it with clutch in certain situations while now it seems to be faster with less revs lost between gears (or even none).

[KevM 44]

Look what me and my Polo did....   heh heh!!  

(Watch that get destroyed now, I made a few balls-ups!  Red Flag to a Bull)  :)

Well done!. (You need to find that gravity setting now! :-)  )

You know. It feels kinda strange to be at the end of early accses, but at the same time it feels nice. It has a certain peace over it, like you are finally done with something you have been working towards, but you don't wanna quit working because you hare having too muvh fun.

But I wanna say congratulations to Codemasters  for making one of the best games to ever come out of early accses. And for making a game that made me buy a 700£ computer without hesitation so I could play it.

No regrets

So, the latest gossip should centre around the text that appears when you first start V1, it said something about Santa might visit... What might our DiRTy Christmas present be?

Wishful thinking, first DLC announcement?

We know we will get the super secret cars at some point. Hopefully some content will be added b4 the console release :)

[TURBODEVIN19 19]

What came out of this Barcelona stuff? Still possible as DLC content, or already confirmed to be for another game?

Taking into account that creating a rally stage probably takes too long to do in the foreseeable future, but the level designers probably wanna be something as well while the game is being ported to consoles, I personally think this could actually happen.

Yeah it's really slow for this car...
