Looks like Codemasters has decided that the Dirt Series games on console will never get FOV adjustments. Kinda sad, that one change could make the experience so much better for so many. Sure, many on console don't ask for it, but that is because many of them never had the option thanks to big titles like Gran Turismo who also feel it is not important.
I have very little time at this point in my life for Sim Racing so I am not going to settle.. there are two good titles on ps4 that have full FOV options so I will stick with them. No point in buying any other racing game/sim unless they have the FOV adjustments included.

I probably overlooked this somewhere, but I didn’t realize that using the Season Pass special liveries gives you free repairs.
Also didn’t realize until recently you can completely replace parts before events and during service stages.
I have to say that having 10 Rally locations is so much better than DR1’s six. Having the extra 4 really makes the ‘My Team’ career so much more deep by not getting the same 6 locations every championship.
On the other hand, reaching the Masters level (I’m at Elite) has the potential for making the game get repetitive by the time you go through 12 stages in an event.
Even with 10 stages I start to recognize which are reverse (because I never read the names to notice...) or I start recognizing certain corners. I think 6-9 stages is about right to keep things fresh without grinding the game (and myself) into the ground.
Finally, I wish that we could get another surface other than maximum degradation in the ‘My Team’ career mode when selecting the H1 cars. Seems that the game treats them as afterthoughts and starts them last in the running order by default. Otherwise you need to do the community and offline events to get a decent surface with those cars.

So, it does look like we're getting a Season 3, as Finland was teased in one of the updates on the website. In fact. It's at the tail end of the blog post posted a few above.

I can’t find the Finland teaser anywhere. Have a link?
@PJTierney says August will be a big month but I’ve still got no hard evidence more locations is confirmed and I’m seriously doubting a Season 3, but it would be a nice surprise regardless.
Could be game enhancements/improvements or some more cars. If it’s another E-Sport competition like D4 I’m not interested.

It's at the end of this blog: http://blog.codemasters.com/community/07/the-dirt-roadbook-july-26-2019/ As I said. They shared it on Facebook and a lot of people immediately recognized the stage as Finland.

Sure looks a lot like Germany to me.

I'm just saying what Facebook said. But why would they tease a course they already have? Codemasters did say that August was gonna be big.

I couldn't find that screenshot on FB...
"Big" doesn't mean the same to Codemasters as it does to you and me. It could just be the eSports stuff they announced in February with motorsport.com
Although if there is to be any new content, Greece and Finland are pretty much guaranteed.

Sharing some player's screenshot is not about teasing anything.

I don't remember a photo mode being promised. And PJ confirmed recently in the forums that there will be no photo mode in DR2.0.

I meant since release, there have been new rallycross circuits but no new rallies added since the game was launched in February.

Team investigated it and found that implementing it would cause various other issues (some critical) that require a lot of work to resolve, and that resource was best spent on other features.
It's certainly something they want to look at for potential future titles though. I keep banging on about it and how it's great for GT/Forza

The Fulvia and the Opel Super 1600 rallycross car are the career starter cars (I don't recall being offered a choice) and get free repairs.
