This is the discussion thread for a recent post on GTPlanet:

Agreed on all counts. How amazing would it be if the implemented Dirt 4's "Your Stage" Along side the handcrafted ones?
Defiantly hoping they improve feedback for wheel users too. It's frustratingly numb especially when Asetto has spoiled you haha.
Anyone else think it would be a cool touch if the co-driver actually felt like hes sitting in the car next to you. I mean if you roll the car or go off the track or dont pay attention he just goes quiet then continues like nothing. I remember in the old WRC PS2 games the co-driver would say things like "are you ok?" after smashing or if you go off the course he would say "what are you doing?". this completely lacks that. DiRT 4 kinda had small chatter at the beginning or end of a stage which made it feel more like you were a team.
One quirk the Co-driver in Rally 2.0 has is that the tone of the pace notes changes depending on how erratic your driving is - there are three tones if I remember correctly. My main motivation to go fast is to hear Phil Mills' "I'm :censored:ing bricks" voice.
I miss the quirky lines from DiRT 3, where you'd suffer a particularly rough jump or rollover and the co driver would say something like "I shouldnt have eaten so much!" Or "I think I'm still alive!"Anyone else think it would be a cool touch if the co-driver actually felt like hes sitting in the car next to you.

With its current state and situation I am actually very glad I did hold off and managed to not give in 👍

I'm quite pleased that I've held off too. The limited edition tin almost had me a few times though! I look forward to playing this... next year
Well, to be fair you guys are really only hearing from the complainers. Most of us are out there racing it and having a blast. That's not to say that there are not issues to be worked out, I simply would rather be racing now and waiting for them to be fixed than not.
Yeah mate that's cool, each to their own & all that. The other big reason for me is that I have a stack of racing games lined up, so I can wait
Yep, completely agree and after loading Jon Armstrong's settings into the G29 the FFB is decent, all I'm wishing for now is PSVR support and extra content, but regardless it feels amazing to drive real stages again on local roads, NZ and AU. Heaps of fun and puts a 'smile on the dial' everytime.Despite any negatives I have zero regrets buying this game, purchased the deluxe version and really looking forward to the DLC arriving over the months to come. I'm having an absolute blast playing 2.0, it's an improvement over the original and that's good enough for me.
