[DiRT 4] Question about "Rate this Stage"

[PJTierney 5,269]

Hi everyone, apologies if this has been asked before.

At the end of every stage in DiRT 4 you have the option to rate it from 1 to 5 stars.

• What effect does this Rating have? 
• Do these ratings help "influence" the track generation algorithms so that more desirable stages are created in future?

The main purpose of it for us is probably to find popular stages in the Your Stage hub: https://www.dirt4game.com/uk/your-stage

For Codies, I don't know what they're doing but I'd be very surprised if they weren't using it to inform them about what's working with Your Stage and what isn't. Data like that, when there's enough of it, is usually a lot more powerful than people generally realise. I'd encourage you to rate stages wherever you can!

Check out the latest road book, there is a lot of info in there on what they plan on doing in the ratings: http://forums.codemasters.com/discussion/53495/dirt-4-road-book-16-06-17
