GRID 2019

[Silver Arrows]

It always makes me laugh that they've invented LikeNoOther hashtag for this game, CopyPaste would be more appropriate. All of the DLC cars are copied from Dirt, right?

The Clio is. The rest of the cars are more or less new. Paris certainly is a rehash.

The Mini has never been in a DiRT game. The Audi S1 has appeared as a WRX car in DiRT, but the bodywork is significantly different. The Delta and Clio are most likely based off DiRT models.

 

[doblocruiser]

Just look at it! The masters of recycling content at full speed. They copy the cars straight over from their other franchise. Codemasters is truly getting beyond ridiculous

 

[GTFan24]

Man oh man look at all of that recycled ****! Codies at it again! What an amazing studio! /s

 

[SestoScudo]

Lmaooo Codemasters at it again.

 

[Ak1504]

There is a Mini John Cooper Works Challenge in Grid Autosport.

 

[GTFan24]

First they piss off everyone with the Stadia crap, now they get caught recycling **** again.

This game is quite truly #LikeNoOther

Correct, as well as the Mini Cooper Works GP road car.

My point still stands though.

 

[MroczMR]

I wonder what can we expect for Supercars and Hypercars on Season 2 and 3... Maybe there will be something new from codies...

 

[Zona]

Amazing!! I really want to buy this game. Should I? I will surely do some championships there as soon as I get it!

Wait until it's on sale like BIG discount sale.

 

[LivingWithGames]

Speaking of big sale, GRID 2019 is literally on a HEAVY sale, in just one month. Standard is 56% off discount, Ultimate Edition 50% off discount. They already halved the price on an autumn sale.

One month of the game doing extremely poorly, and Codemasters are already desperate.

And still its not tempting enough for me to get

Do feel a bit of a tit for pre-ordering the ultimate edition....

This is why I hardly pre-order stuff, it can bite you in the ass later on. It's thanks to games of this shoddy quality that I have ever since learned this way - from being ecstatic and pre-ordering or buying day 1 or 2, to waiting on the reviews.

 

[Magdelayna]

Can you do a custom championship in this?

I learnt my lesson from the crew 2. Paying about £20 more got me some cars that could be bought by any player if they had the credits

 

[Zona]

Can you do a custom championship in this?

Yes, in Freeplay. You can set up max 5 rounds, choose the vehicle class, any number of laps (up to 99), any track, any time of day/weather conditions.

At least thats something - pity its only 5 rounds though. I just picked the game up for a reduced £30 - expectations are low so id like to be pleasantly surprised,hehe.

The game is very good. The only problem with it is content.

First impressions on the intro section are pretty good tbh - the graphics are better than i expected after i heard some comments. Have they improved them up to patch 1.06? AI seems nice and varied with cars spinning out. I will play a lot more today.

It was actually improved a little bit. Gameplay is very good. It could be decent game if it had more content and bettter career mode.

So, opinions on S1 DLC
Cars: Nice selection, but I can quite clearly see the S1600 Clio and the Delta Integrale are Dirt Rally Ports. The Audi S1 Quattro looks amazing, and I’m liking what Codies is doing by giving us Tuned cars rather than Stock ones
Tracks: Paris is a nice addition, and it looks absolutely beautiful even on a Base XONE. My one problem is it looks like they ported it straight from GRID2, and you can see this in some of the textures
Events: Poor. Same old same old repetitive career mode dross, and the Ravenwest showdown is still a colossal waste of time

Yeah this is nice. It fits more GRID than normal stock road cars. And it makes me hyped a little bit for Season 3. We all know it is called "Track Day Hypercars" i think we will see McLaren P1 GTR, Ferrari FXXK, Pagani Zonda R (conversion from GRID2) and maybe Aston Martin Vulcan.

Same, I'm looking forward to the next 2 packs. If I am to make predictions based on what cars are in the existing Codies Library, I'd assume these will make an appearance:

Track Day Supercars:
McLaren 675LT
Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series
Nissan GT-R Nismo
Audi R8 LMS Ultra

Track Day Hypercars:
Pagani Huayra BC
Koenigsegg One:1
Pagani Zonda R
Zenvo TSR

I think they actually will add some completely new cars. They have Porsche and Ferrari licence now after all.

 

[DriftShock]

Hopefully the next track is a new one
Mt. Panorama or maybe even Mondello Park?

 

[FT-1]

Again, I'm keeping my expectations low with Codemasters. However, I would like to see a permanent road circuit with multiple layouts (Sorry Spa and Bathurst) return - COTA, Yas Marina, Algarve and the Red Bull Ring are all good shouts.

 

[Boxout]

I'd love to see watkins glen or laguna seca, but I doubt codies would go through licensing and scanning those.

They technically have the second part since SMS has both modeled already. They would just need to work out new licensing deals.

 

[Emick81]

PLayed some of the Season 1 DLC.

Those superhatches are fun to drive.
Paris track is great, colors really shine in HDR.

The foundation of this game is very good. If it had twice the tracks we would probably praising this game.
