    Some of longest stages ever at 30KM and Seasons like forza? Looking good and very pretty :cool: It's going to blow my mind in HDR10 :D

    In fact it's going to be the first time on PC for HDR. Dirt Rally 1 & 2 didn't have it on PC :( XBOX ONE X did which i own and it's superb in HDR10. Dirt Rally 2 HDR version is one of the reasons that i bought a XBOX ONE X recently in addition to the forza's ;)

    I like what I'm seeing from gameplay side, but visuals look pretty basic, no? They aren't any better than WRC Generations. So even with EA's backing this game received only a modest budget, probably because this is considered a niche game and they don't want to take unnecessary risks.

    Oh crap, just found out that this will be using Unreal Engine. I really hope they have optimised this properly and that it isn't another Jedi Survivor stutterfest on PC. Getting really worried now. I assumed it would be using the same EGO (?) engine used for DiRT Rally 2.

    That has been my one major worry since they announced this but i'm putting my faith in codemasters because unreal engine can be smooth running in the right hands. Some developers have proven this. That latest trailer is kinda putting my mind at rest.

    But yes i'm very susceptible to stuttering and tearing. That's why i've almost exclusively always been a gamer on PC because you can generally control that when you roll your own experience :cool:

    I think the game look nice enough using the unreal engine.
    The images are sharper and there is way less bokeh effect.
    Imo, The game now look like what you get when you use a mobile/cell phone to film and not a real camera.

    It doesn't look bad but neither does it have any graphics technology pushing features. It looks.... OK, serviceable (for example smoke and dust still look very videogamey and primitive, just check comparison between real life and in-game at 4:00 in the video).
    I like how trees and bushes extend further into the distance than something like WRC Generations (perhaps using nanite?).

    Preordered! :cool: Games are usually £60 - £70 now so £44.99 Including the VIP Season Pass as a preorder bonus which will probably be £19.99 after launch! Quite the bargain i think! I'm Happy :)

    Last time i preordered was 2016 LOL :D I almost preordered Forza Motosport too but i'm only up to Forza Motosport 3 in that series. My next preorder will 100% be Forza Horizon 6. I want to be there from the start with that one! :cool:

    More realistic and less vibrance than the previous Dirt Rally games which HDR will elevate the luminance of anyway. Add on the wide colour gamut and i think this is going to be pretty damn realistic at times. Foliage is definatelly a big step up on previous especially the distance foliage :cool:

    I swear people say this about every driving game ever :D In any case, I always play rally games in bonnet cam view, so however chase cam looks isn't really much of an issue for me.

    no, dirt 1 and the previous colin mcrae rally 2.0. didn t have this feeling, from the third person cam, cmr 2 cars were planted to the road, this thing started with the newer arcade rally games, where it feels like the cars are not planted on the road
