DiRT Rally - What is your 'favorite' pacenote

[KevM 44]

Its more angle than gearing though.  Some cars have 4 gears, whats a 6 right? :P

[Procver 3]

I was about to say "keep very in"... that is always followed up by a huuge powerslide (best case) if the pacenote is not followed

i think cornering numbers should be revisited trough all the stages. there are lot of wrong indications .  often a 3corner can be taken generously with 4th gear, sometimes  the exact turn, and so on 

i know it's a lot of work but this needs to be done ;) imo

There's a pacenote in Germany where after a pretty fast straight there's a late, late call for a tight 3-left. 

Unless you know the stage like the back of your hand then all who run pacenote calls later than 'very early' will more than likely go straight on into the field. 

HOWEVER, my favourite pacenote is 6 left/right over jump.

Definitely "Be brave" :D 

But when that goes wrong, there's always the reassuring "Rear left puncture" xD

i know -_-

but gearing  and  cornering indication coincides  good with lot of cars

in a  3 left in greece for ex. you know you can take it at  80/100km/h.     what gear is that in  80% of cars????

don't be so polemical  ;)

It's this one. Co-driver will say either "60 - (long pause) - left 4 - 60" or "60 - (shorter pause) - left 3 - 60". In both cases, a 3 is displayed on screen.

By the way, it seems to only depend on if you're going flat-out or not, not on actual speed. You can trigger both in the 205 as well as the Mini Cooper (which goes easily around this corner flat-out)

Visual notes are handled in a different way than Paul's voice. The latter can have different variations depending on speed. Paul has recorded 4 times as many samples as there are in other languages. And they don't use variations.

I know which one is my co-drivers favorite pace note since he says it all the time: "Down on power."

Technically it's not a pace note since it is an update on your engine status instead of information about the route and your driving. But I get the idea ;)

"Titans."

Amazing how long I puzzled over what the hell my co-driver was going on about, back when I was trying to learn something about rally with Rally Trophy.  Thought he might have been praying to the Greek gods to get him out of my car, soonest.

THIS!!!

This dang corner!!!!  Both directions!!!

It is NOT a 3, it's 2, maybe 2 half long, it requires a lot of knowledge and very careful and precise setup to make it as a 3.

Also, to who said about the gears and numbers, yes you can use them as a rough guide, but the notes are corner severity and not linked to gears at all.

[KevM 44]

Paul needs to use Double Caution before a note, instead of Very In after it! :)

[F2CMaDMaXX 505]

TRIPLE CAUTION!

[shadow118 18]

"Keep right, maybe" - what am I supposed to do? Do I keep right or not? :D 

[KevM 44]

Puncture. Back left?

Again, technically not a pacenote. You wouldn't tell your co-driver to include this in your pacenotes during a recce? ;)

[KevM 44]

No, after playing DiRT, I would forbid my co-driver to announce the obvious to me in such a way.  It's really annoying, someone stating the obvious. Isn't it? :)

[PaloSamo 0]

There are many information calls that are not translated into ger/fra/esp/ita. Probably they are not used in the game. But in fairness, I wouldn't mind an occasional banter with the co-driver after a misspelled note or my reckless driving ;)

Caution, Titans.

Left 4 double tightens.  I get a little aroused and sometime lol a bit.

Keep left over flat out crest jump
If you look at it it should really be caution over crest jump. 
But I think it's a nice little tribute to the legend. 

PS. If in doubt, flat out. 

[F2CMaDMaXX 505]

Maybe, but it could also be just confirmation that it *is* a flat out jump.  I am liking the tribute thing though :)

Where is this called? I can't remember the stage. Or the call.
