Runs like absolute ♥♥♥♥. I'm not even maxing out my GPU while running it, and yet I'm barely getting 30 fps regardless of what graphics settings I use. My PC is fairly beefy and modern so there's really no excuse for this unreal engine slop. Other games run fine.

CPU: Ryzen R9 5950X
GPU: Radeon 7900 XTX

Not as good as american trucks, or trains, but still good.

Pros
* Large quantity of locations, with long stages, massively increasing the amount of playtime before you memorize all the stages.
* Excellent stage design. Every location feels authentic and real, partially because they're all real roads, and many of them are real WRC stages too. The sections that cut through villages are some of the best parts.
* A large selection of cars from across the eras.
* Amazing sound design.
* Good physics and handling. While not necessarily superior to RBR in terms of gravel, and other traditional racing sims have the advantage in terms of tarmac realism, EA WRC is still close enough and better than all the other modern rally alternatives.

Cons
* Performance is not great. Despite the latest patch that fixed the major stutters, this game is still nowhere near able to take advantage of my GPU. Regardless of the graphics settings I use it is stuck at around 60 to 70 fps on my 4K 144Hz display. GPU usage never approaches 100% even at max settings. There is definitely a CPU bottleneck.
* Lots of bugs. Club repair exploit still exists. Career AI difficulty gets reset if you take a break mid-event.
* Still many places where you can easily go off the road and get DNF'd for the car being unrecoverable, even if you can clearly see a way to drive back onto the road. I'd personally they'd rather just disable the ability to reset to track in those situations, but leave the choice to retire up to you.
* Career is the same calendar of events every season, with the exact same combination of stages for each event. At least spice it up a bit with some randomness!
* Codemasters was killed by EA. Game was killed by EA. EA is bad.


Unfortunate that this is the best modern rally sim we have.

I've played it for a little bit and it seems to be fun so far.

Pros: Has bunnies and bunny girls (viera).

Cons:
- Most hats are not visible on viera, and viera don't have tails. Can be rectified with mods however.
- Even if you have the money, buying a house still requires you to be extremely lucky (or move to a new world).

This is the peak of the Project Car series. It improved on top of PC1, and PC3 is a complete downgrade, so get this one. If you want a true spiritual successor, get Automobilista 2 which uses the same engine and preserves the spirit of true sim racing.

Great game but buggy. Support for custom wheel setups is really bad, and multiplayer is jank. Still love the game though.

Don't do it! Don't let this game suck away your life! Better that you never try this game and never watch your life slip away as you play MapleStory all night and all day.

It's a good game.

My biggest complaint is crafting quality based items because you can't queue up more than one, and you have to select what ingredients to use every single time. Please fix that quality of life issue.

It's fun.

Definitely an improvement over the original Dirt Rally with twice the amount of locations, albeit half of them are recycled from the original and are DLC at that. That said, I don't mind the DLC model as long as it keeps them producing more content for this game instead of just moving on to the next game.

I have co-driver calls set on the earlier side and he'll still call some corners when I'm already turning into them.

I use a Logitech G29 and the force feedback feels good, although I had to turn down the suspension so my wheel wouldn't shake like crazy in bumpier stages.
