First things first dirt rally is one of those games that will make you love and hate yourself and the same time, it is very fun and enjoyable once you understand the small tricks for getting a better time anywhere. All though if you are really grinding the game to try and get the community delta achievements and keep messing up you will get angry. Just give up for the night and try some other time.

Dirt rally was one of those games that I played for about 3 hours at first then got bored of it and left it for about 2 weeks and came back to it, Boy am I glad I did . I absolute love this game. Became really addicting and fun. Even just doing a Hotseat type game with my friends was really fun and we had a great laugh.

    Tips for beginning
  • learn the basics I.e. Callouts, difference between FWD, RWD, 4WD
  • The Scandinavian flick is extremely useful (shifting the cars weight in the opposite direction of a upcoming corner and flick into it, to gain a faster speed exiting the corner)
  • don’t worry about not coming first every time you’ll get better soon
Dirt Rally comes with no bulls***, Just good and gritty driving, no drifting or story line (Colin McRae dirt 2)

Overall this is the best "Dirt" that i have played (I have played Dirt 2, Dirt 3, Dirt rally) In fact this is the best driving game i have played to date.

I would highly recommend this game. 9 /10 (some small bug fixes needed)

This game does not take that much to run but needs high specs for ultra-high graphics.

This game is hard to play with a keyboard, a controller or steering wheel is a lot easier. There is no rewinds (dirt 2) restarting a Stage cost ingame money

Listen to your co-driver.
The reason for co-driver calls is to describe the road ahead so that despite having not driven the stage before you can confidently attack the stage. Listening to the calls gives you a mental picture of the road ahead allowing you to approach corners with an understanding of the challenges they will present. Timing is crucial and in Dirt Rally.
Scenery can be distracting if you’re speeding round a corner in the Greek hills with near death cliffs and the co-driver calls “right 3, Don’t cut” but it looks like a “right 5, cut “don’t go with your perception of the course listen to him he will give you an advantage overall if you learn how to control the car over all terrain and in all corner type situations
