Dumb question, any plan for trucks? :3

How punishing is it? Is it the type of game where you have to be perfect and talented, or you'll have to keep retrying?
I'm a fan of the other four DiRT games, but I'm by no means great at them.
I doubt the fat cats in charge at CM give a shit about positive feedback, they want sales.
Aw damn, those hill climbs with semis were my favoriteI don't think so. In the last survey they mentioned dakar, ice racing, and a bunch of other types of off-road, but there was no truck.

Here are some WebMs from my recordings, just to add some motion on to the pictures. Maybe I'll update the OP with a media section if space allows.

I love how his tone changes when you wreck. Sadly I hear this tone way too much.

The Colin McRae series at its prime was always excellent at ushering players into that zone, but Dirt Rally goes further still. It helps that Codemasters have perhaps looked to another revered off-road game bearing the name of a world champion, Richard Burns Rally. With its sim-like credentials, and a propensity to bite back, Dirt Rally certainly seems closer to Warthog's 2004 game than anything else in the Codemasters stable. Such attitude is backed up by a handling model that runs satisfyingly deep.
A passion for the sport shines through Dirt Rally's course selection, an assortment of the very best of off-road racing from the dank Welsh countryside and classic stages such as Sweet Lamb to the more glamorous grey of Monte Carlo and the Col de Turini. There are thrills elsewhere, too, from the precarious, vertiginous blasts of Greece to the impossibly dangerous forest trials of Finland, where Dirt Rally's greatest challenges lie. It's there, in the pure speed and the survival horror that comes through seeing the rev needle bounce off the limiter in top gear as pine trees fly past, that Codemasters' new brand of driving is at its very best.
After the excesses that began to weigh down some of Codemasters' driving games, the purity and laser focus found here is more than welcome. The paring back, however, has arguably gone too far in some cases, and there's a feeling that this was pulled out of Early Access a little prematurely. The front-end menu is a thin clutter, refusing to welcome newcomers to what's undoubtedly an intimidating game - there are a handful of assists, tucked away in a pause menu, but there's nothing by way of a tutorial to give a gentle introduction to what's on offer.
It can be frustratingly punitive, though, and Dirt Rally's career mode limits you to cars you've purchased - and asks you to grind a little too much to acquire a half-decent garage. Money can be earned elsewhere, including in faddish but fun daily and monthly events with decent payouts, but Dirt Rally still feels overly restrictive, and displays little imagination when it comes to providing a neat, compelling thread through the disciplines, courses and cars it's compiled. You get the sense such issues will be ironed out by the time of Dirt Rally's console debut next April, but they're still very much present in a PC version that's happy to call itself the finished article.
Considering what thrills Dirt Rally offers, though, it's easy to overlook its shortcomings. Codemasters has been long overdue a return to the form that made its name, when it regularly churned out genre classics such as Colin McRae Rally, TOCA and Grid. Dirt Rally does more than restore some glory to a name that's become slightly tarnished in recent years; in its passionate portrayal of rally, delivered with brutality and beauty, Codemasters has delivered what's quite simply its finest driving game to date.
Speaking of the career mode, can someone explain to me how it works?
I've been driving the Fulvia and got promoted to a new league, however when I start a new championship I can pick another car. Does that mean if I bought a new car in a different class I would start in the higher tier league, or would I go the bottom one again?

Thanks all.
That's slightly annoying, I was planning to try and win the top league in the Fulvia, then start again in the next class up and so on.
Rather than have to abandon about 50 events to get relegated to the bottom, is there a way to reset your progress do you know?
Oh thank fuck Martin Robinson reviewed it.
Feel like I wasted my money on a Pikes Peak Car. Is it all tarmac?
Does anyone here uses the Ford Fiesta Rallycross normally? I can't use it here. It stays on infinite loading.
I usually use the Subaru but I just popped into a custom Rallycross event with the Fiesta and it worked fine. Maybe try doing the file check on Steam?
Could someone shittier than me please knock me up from the bottom of the leaderboard, thanks.

Hey,
At 2pm GMT, we released a patch. Here's a rundown of the patch notes:
Weve fixed a number of co driver call issues in German, French, Italian and Spanish.
Weve found some parts lying around in the back of the service areas so you can now upgrade your Hyundai Rally Car.
Need more snow in your life? Custom championships now include Sweden.
Fixed a missing Italian text string in the part failure message.
Fixed a number of graphical issues including; Opaque windows on Rallycross AI cars, a corrupt texture after partly detaching the rear bumper in the rain, some weird flickering in bonnet cam when switching the Virtual Rear View Mirror on and some glowing thing on Holjes.
Dirt Rally 1.02 has been released! Here's the patch notes from the Steam forums:
This so much. Even more so given the fact Polyphony Digital is unaware of the E30 M3 existing and it's one of my favorite cars. Favorite cars + rally = head_explode.gif! I'm coming for you Patrick Snijers!i need this game.
Wow!55 hours spent in the game so far since it hit early access (which is nothing compared to most people, I know) and I still can't even come close to getting first place in the master's championship. It's humbling.
