I've done a similar Driveclub thread with decent results so as this game looks to evolve like DC did feel it would be easier to compile the list in it's own thread.
Format is:
- [Insert feature]
don't go into nitpicking territory and don't post requests that were already in the OP to make my job easier. NOTE: this isn't a specific car/track wishlist it's just a feature request thread.
- Photomode
- Instant replay to see my spectacular crashes.
- Tv or helicam in full replays that don't automatically switch to other views.
- More Locations for all disciplines
- Online ghosted rally
- turn off co-pilot speech during replays
- Bring back setup times
Colin McRae Rally 2.0 had this system where you got one hour at each service to set the car up and carry out repairs. In Dirt Rally, you're free to make whatever setup changes you like with repairs being quite separate.
- Longer intervals between services
Right now, you get to service the car every two stages. But on higher difficulty settings, it should be every three or four stages.
- Super special stages
- abillity to use a wheel and the PS4 controller at the same time
- keyboard mapping support
- Tyre choice, for a sim this is missing and makes a huge impact on stage times and - performance. Include a limit on the number you can carry and therefore fit between stages
- Ice Racing - Stick the Trophe Androis in.
- Let me run anything I want on the Hill Climbs
- Better replays, more tv cams
- Different copilots voices? I really hate the italian one
- Livery editor like in grid
- Parity in the rallycross AI. ( It's not uncommon for the slowest driver in your heat to be three or four seconds faster than everyone else. Since the draw for the first heat is completely random, it's entirely possible to win the championship by luck; I was racing against Vesley, Kovacs and Goossens at Hell and they all featured in the final. At the next round at Holjes, only Kovacs made it to the semi-finals (and was eliminated there); meanwhile, I was up against Oosthuizen, Hämäläinen and Alvarez in the heats, and they all featured in the final.)
-FOV adjust on the PS4
- Get rid of scripted incidents.
- Show country flag and gamertag on side window
- Personalize driver
- Show favorite car in stats including km driven
- Fix corrupted save bug
-Make hill climb accessible by all cars, or make it separate DLC so we can ignore it.
-Make Rallycross a purchase-able DLC for the next title...it's completely wasted on a lot of folks.
-Voice increase in volume for the co-driver (still crap)
-Liveries. Please for the love of god take some time or hire/request some people to actually produce quality paintwork for these cars.
-Need more stages per rally (I'm okay with less rallies if you give me more stages per)
-Tire selection...again, for the love of God, tire selection (including choosing for fronts/rears being different compounds etc.)
-Introduce a minor grip change for new stages as cars proceed. This would allow for the real rally feel where front runners are cleaning the surface for those following. This is why in a lot of rallies, if you qualify you'll choose to go further back. It also penalizes drivers who get ahead in the rally, helping those behind gain a minor boost. Introduce something in the coding to allows a 0.5%-1% grip increase per car that launches etc.
-Introduce a rally by stages and the time of those stages, but allow for random weather conditions.
-Allow for weather to change during a rally as cars launch. Allow for rain to cease or to start during the progression of drivers. Ideally allow weather to change mid-stage.
-Better modeling for the cars, this is something I'm confident will arrive in the next game - since this first game is a budget attempt at market research.
-Increase realism and diversity of signage etc. around the stages. It's distracting when a rally is sponsored by two big sponsors...who oddly enough are also the sponsors on your cars. I'm fine with fake sponsors, but along with the livery idea, this needs to be stepped up immensely.
-While it would be annoying, add more camera flashes (particularly at night) when near large spectator areas
-More attention paid to dirt/crud on the windscreen and the windscreen wiper's effectiveness
-Allow for the saving of replays/highlights
-Allow you to watch other people's stages
-Introduce a weather option for dry stages (ie. Greece) where it will occasionally have dust hanging in the air (ie. use the fog filter but with some slight changes), increasing the benefit of going first.
-Tighten up the limits/areas for when the game auto resets your car...or remove the auto-reset completely unless you hit the outer barrier of the graphics/stage. Allow the driver to elect when to hit the "reset" button. Sometimes the game saves you when you don't need it, and likewise won't allow you to reset when you need to. Needs a bit of polish.
-Allow to create "randomized" online rallies by picking an event. Ie. allow me to select "random Greek rally of X number of stages"....and not the "random = every rally/stage shotgunned into the schedule" that we have now.
-Increase the amount of random issues with the player's car...I see a heap of notes in the championships for stuff impacting other cars. It seems we just get radiator and engine lights and then sometimes our car dies. I'd like a mention or mechanics brief on some of the weird stuff I've seen mentioned in the AI. (Broken fuel pump, broken engine mounts etc.)
-Introductory modern FWD class...the F2 Kit is kinda/sorta okay, but I'm surprised we have no entry level WRC3 class or Super 1600's etc.
-Ultra Stages
- More detail around service area (ala older Colin McRae games) where you can see the crew and the car being worked on, just to add to the feeling of immersion more than anything else
