ChristinaMc 377 Posted May 19, 2017 This week’s Road Book is a little all over the place, in tribute to how all over the place the DiRT team’s been with promoting the game! We’ve been at HockenheimRX, MettetRX, a shiny preview event in London, and we’ll also be at Lydden Hill which is just around the corner – so we’re doing our best to spread the DiRTy word as far and wide as possible. After all, with only three weeks to go until DiRT 4 is available globally, it’s the perfect time for us to take things up a gear (see what we did there?!)Alongside the shiny stuff, we’ve also done some important work in the office too – like finalise our initial supported peripherals list. You’ll be able to find that list in this post, so stay tuned for that in a few paragraph’s time. :)Anyway, let’s get to the good stuff – and crack on with the Road Book!DiRT 4 Preview EventAs you might’ve seen on the internet yesterday, we held a very special preview event in London. It’s safe to say DiRT 4 went down an absolute storm, so keep your eye out for some of the capture and content that will come out of that! We’ll be sharing them as usual over the coming days and weeks – but for a sneaky preview of what went on, you can check out one of the Periscopes we did at the event:https://twitter.com/dirtgame/status/865195957499166720 A big thank you to Matt Beckett (our resident Product Manager for Micro Machines World Series) for daring to have his first crack at DiRT 4 live on Twitter! True story: Paul Coleman, Chief Game Designer for DiRT 4, gave him a couple of choice motivational words just before we went live… those words were ‘be brave’.You can also take a look at the first video we’ve seen come out of yesterday’s event, posted by Erased Citizens on YouTube last night. Alas, there isn’t any sound from the game – but if you want to see how beautiful it looks, then this is a pretty good representation.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwTYbxgAKUMSupported peripherals – the list!So we’re at the stage where we’re finally able to unveil our supported peripherals list! Of course, these peripherals are mostly assorted wheels, pedals and shifters – but you’ll also see a couple of other things on there that are technically compatible input peripherals!Finally: please note that this is just the first list, and that it will be subject to changes/updates as certain manufacturers launch new hardware.PS4Wheels• Logitech G29 Racing Wheel• Thrustmaster T80• Thrustmaster T100• Thrustmaster T150• Thrustmaster T300 PS• Thrustmaster T500 PSAdd Ons• Thrustmaster – 599XX EVO 30• Thrustmaster – F1• Thrustmaster – Ferrari GTE• Thrustmaster – TM Leather 28 GT• Thrustmaster 2-Pedal Pedal Set• Thrustmaster T3PA Pedals• Thrustmaster T3PA Pro pedals• Thrustmaster TH8A ShifterOther• PS VitaPCWheels• Fanatec ClubSport Wheel Base v1• Fanatec ClubSport Wheel Base v2• Fanatec ClubSport Wheel Base v2.5• Fanatec CSL Elite Wheel Base• Fanatec CSR Elite Wheel• Fanatec Porsche 911 GT2 Wheel• Fanatec Porsche 911 GT3 Wheel• Fanatec Porsche 911 Carrera Wheel• Fanatec Porsche 911 Turbo Wheel• Fanatec Porsche 911 Turbo S Wheel• Logitech Driving Force EX/RX• Logitech Driving Force GT• Logitech Driving Force Pro• Logitech G25 Racing Wheel• Logitech G27 Racing Wheel• Logitech G29 Racing Wheel• Logitech G920 Racing Wheel• Logitech MOMO Racing Wheel• Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback Wheel• Microsoft Wireless Xbox 360 Racing Wheel (Windows 10 Only)• Thrustmaster F430 Force Feedback Racing Wheel• Thrustmaster Ferrari GT Experience Racing Wheel• Thrustmaster RGT FF Pro• Thrustmaster T80• Thrustmaster T150• Thrustmaster T300 PS• Thrustmaster T500 PS• Thrustmaster TX• Thrustmaster TMX Force Feedback• Thrustmaster TS-PC• SimXperience AccuForce ProAdd Ons• Fanatec CSL Elite Pedals• Fanatec Clubsport Pedals V1• Fanatec Clubsport Pedals V2• Fanatec Clubsport Pedals V3• Fanatec CSR Pedals• Fanatec Clubsport Steering Wheel BMW GT2• Fanatec Clubsport Steering Wheel Formula• Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel Universal Hub for Xbox One• Fanatec CSL Steering Wheel P1 for Xbox One• Fanatec ClubSport Shifter (SQ)• Fanatec ClubSport USB Adapter• Fanatec Clubsport Handbrake• Thrustmaster – 599XX EVO 30• Thrustmaster – F1• Thrustmaster – Ferrari GTE• Thrustmaster – TM Leather 28 GT• Thrustmaster 2-Pedal Pedal Set• Thrustmaster T3PA Pro pedals• Thrustmaster TH8 RS Shifter• Thrustmaster TH8A Shifter• Thrustmaster T.RJ12 USB AdapterOther• Generic Keyboard• Logitech Cordless RumblePad 2 USB• Logitech Dual Action Gamepad• Logitech F710 Wireless Gamepad• Logitech Rumble Gamepad F510• Logitech RumblePad 2 USB• Official Xbox 360 Wired Pad• Official Xbox 360 Wireless Pad• Official Xbox One Wireless Pad• SPEEDLINK Torid Gamepad• SPEEDLINK Strike FX Gamepad• Thrustmaster Dual Trigger 3-in-1Xbox OneWheels• Fanatec CSL Elite Wheel• Fanatec ClubSport Wheel Base v2• Fanatec ClubSport Wheel Base v2.5• Logitech G920 Racing Wheel• Thrustmaster Ferrari 458 Spider Racing• Thrustmaster TMX Force Feedback• Thrustmaster TXAdd Ons• Fanatec CSL Steering Wheel P1 for Xbox One• Fanatec ClubSportWheel Universal Hub for Xbox One• Fanatec CSL Elite Pedals• Fanatec Clubsport Pedals V1• Fanatec Clubsport Pedals V2• Fanatec Clubsport Pedals V3• Fanatec CSR Pedals• Fanatec Clubsport Handbrake• Fanatec ClubSport Shifter (SQ)• Thrustmaster – 599XX EVO 30• Thrustmaster – F1• Thrustmaster – Ferrari GTE• Thrustmaster – 458 Italia• Thrustmaster – TM Leather 28 GT• Thrustmaster TH8A Shifter• Thrustmaster 2-Pedal Pedal Set• Thrustmaster T3PA Pedals• Thrustmaster T3PA Pro pedalsOther• MadCatz Pro RacingAs mentioned before, this is the initial list – but we’ll update you accordingly with any further updates to the above!Right – that’s all from us for now.

Porkhammer 52 Posted May 19, 2017 I was looking forward to this livestream until I saw it's going to be via facebook.F*** facebook. :( Now I can't watch.Son, I am disappoint. At least put it on Youtube afterwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ALF 5 Posted May 19, 2017 I gotta agree with Porky. I'm all for DiRT Shows ( Live or not ), and for more footage showing DiRT 4, but why you guys choosed Facebook? Not everyone "cares" about social media websites... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RodgerDavies 296 Posted May 19, 2017 Or can access them at work!Come on though guys, be fair - they have to stream it somewhere and everyone has their favourites. In a fan of YouTube's streaming, but others like Twitch, others FB and so on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But you don't need an account to watch anything on there :) Cheers for the YouTube upload, but would be nice for future Dirt Shows if it was on a medium where we don't need to log in to watch live. YouTube or Twitch streams allow anyone with the link to watch, was surprised that I couldn't watch the show on Facebook without being logged in. Minor feedback; either way, I'm looking forward to watching the stream back! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TeksWiller 0 Posted May 19, 2017 Didn't get this early enough, watched stream still afterwards. Nice! :) I havent't found much about Dirt4's clutch support (for simulation handling mode) from web. Is it possible to hear about it more (next roadbooks or there)? I'm interested in especially is there possibility to change gears without using clutch (with h-gears) and make some damage for gearbox with full simulation mode enabled? With DirtRally I was forced to play "Manual sequental and h-gears" -mode and enabled "clutch override" from settings. I think many simracers would like to hear answer to this question. I think many of these boys (and maybe girls ;) ) are still buying your game despite answer... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
