Dirt rally 2 will always be special but ea wrc plays better in my opinion. The visuals and sound overall i think i prefer dirt rally 2, but gameplay ea wrc
Technicallly i think EA WRC is doing more, like higher asset quality and lighting generally, but I find that some of the DR 2.0 stages have a more natural look, like there's more variation in the texture on the roads and environments whereas WRC is lacking some of that, like they created higher resolution assets and made more environments with them, but they look kitbashed at times, whereas in DR 2.0 it seems like they had a more time to make individual details for each track.
Only Colin Mcrae 2000s is good for me! 🤣 Everthing after for me is shit. I just can not accept all this games. Some is dark, some sound is terrible. Dirt rally 2.0 (i think) was difficult to drive if you hit the wall by 2% cars turns around by 180 degrees.😂
Wrc 10 definitely feels more predictable and the tarmac handling is (imo) a lot more accurate. Generations feels very "boaty" for the most part which can make quick tight sections difficult on any surface. Graphics are miles better in generations though and theres clearly a lot more physics happening than in wrc 10. A combination of 10, G and EA wrc could make a perfect game ... probably
I went back to DR2 after a month playing EAS WRC: - Graphics: DR2, hands down - Variety: EAS WRC - Physics: DR2 - Fun: EAS WRC, being more forgiving. It's interesting that one month in EASWRC made me better at DR2. I don't know, it gives you confidence. I feel like EASWRC is to DR2 what Doom 2016 is to Doom Eternal, if you're into shooters.
i'm hearing ya . I sweated so many hours on the original Pikes Peak in DIRT😂 I wish someone would make that track again for modern cars ...... proper dirt track
I think I finally understand my problems with WRC 1. The steering wheel just not lining up to how I like it when I play on gamepad 2. The horrible replay camera In DR2 with how the wheel is animated on gamepad inputs it feels like every input results in something happening in the game (i.e you turn the stick, it turns the steering wheel and the car) but in WRC the steering wheel in game has less/choppier movement. This just takes me away from the game and distracts me at times. I've tried turning off the wheel animations in game but it just doesn't feel right. As for the reply camera, it just looks horrible compared to DR1, D4, DR2. The way the car looks so stiff, the particle effects look so janky, and the camera angles are just so bad. I don't care if the scenery looks great, I want to look and enjoy how cool my run felt no matter if it was fast or slow.
as someone who lives in a really snowy place the DR2.0 snow on the ground is exactly like in real life. I dont know what they tried doing with WRC maybe showing more asphalt to make it more realistic for it to be grippy IDK but it doesnt seem real
I'm actually curious if maybe this has something to do with run order/track degradation. Like more/less people racing before you, the more the track changes. I'd like to see 1st to run, mid pack, and last to run to see the difference.
I couldn't stand the heavy snow fall in WRC, its so weird it actually hurts my eyes, Like it feels like it from a 90s era rally game where they just throw a filter over the screen, its not real at all.
EA WRC looks better. Especially in interior. More detailed both the cabin and the stage Dirt Rally 2.0 has more spectators! Comaprison could be better with similar conditions (like both with fog or without fog for both)
Dirt Rally 2.0 is WAYY better than the new game. Huge bummer on how unrealistic EA Sports WRC is.... slamming into walls to slingshot yourself around tight turns, indestructible cactuses, the tuning does not reflect correctly according to adjustments made. The game is a Flop. its horrible
I don't like it either, Even the damage models suck in WRC. But DR2 they have them White reflectors on Australia stages, I've totaled a car on one of them before lol, Idk what they are made out of but they hurt.
