Dirt original had Pike's Peak?
A huge chunk of the trailer showed a car driving up pikes


Seeing this has also made me realize exactly why DiRT 2 was such a letdown compared to DiRT1... DiRT 2 is just an american wankfest while DiRT was actually about the good stuff...

Is this game Steamworks? I can never find a website that says "Yes." it is always some stupid nerds arguing about it.

It uses GFWL not Steamworks.

Doesn't really bother me to be honest. It worked pretty well in Dirt 2.

I've barely played Dirt 2. I'm not touching Dirt 3.

Yeh that wasnt my issue, I was considering buying it from D2D for $15 cheaper (I have store credit) but I just got it on steam for convenience. I actually dont have any issues with GFWL.

Looking forward to this game!

Anyone playing yet? Steam is taking its sweet fucking time decrypting game files.

Took about thirty minutes to decrypt Fable 3. Hope you fared better.

Same. I put about 3 hours in and lost interest.

Personally, i'd rather play a game that lets me tear my doors off and keep driving, than have people rage that I chipped their paint.

Hardly, definitely took ~20 mins. Played for an hour and a half last night, still getting the driving down since it's a bit more realistic than drift 2.  I've yet to test damage, but if I remember correctly damage is more like dirt 1, where you could damage all components of your car.

Played a couple of races. Pretty much what I was expecting, a bit shinier dirt 2 with new cars and tracks. UI and menus are once again amazing.

I hear there is a stunt-like mode.


This interests me greatly.

Does anyone remember the game stuntman?

How's the rallying? Comrises more of the game than in 2, I hope. I'll have to pick this up, though.

From what I have read (I havent played enough to judge myself) this isnt the case. If you are buying it only for rally I wouldnt get too excited. There is still plenty of the trucks, and the rally courses are not that long (2-3mins). There is also a new mode that is stunt driving, ie not rally. A lot of new multiplayer modes that arent rally like some kind of tag variant and the aformentioned stunt driving.

Personally, it doesnt bother me but any review of the game I have seen from a rally point of view doesnt seem hugely favourable (from a lack of it rather than the quality).

It looks great though, thats for sure.

The stunt driving should of been in Dirt 2, it would of matched the mood and setting a lot better.

@Tazernator
Stuntman was sick game, I remember playing that on PS2.  Pretty challenging IIRC.

Stuntman was amazing... I think I might go play that now But the new stunt mode is related to ken block's gymkhana vids, it's really fun.

This game looks incredible. Mainly thanks to the weather effects + aesthetic improvements to the lighting. Driving through a snowstorm in a multiplayer race was great

Also no 'celebrity' drivers are trying to be my e-friend yet which is a welcome change
