    That makes sense, I hadn't thought of that...perhaps in that context it opens up more vehicles in the future..
    I really hope this does well so that you are able to develop it further. More cars, more countries, would be fantastic.

    Obviously if it was a licensed WRC product then I think it would be a different story...

    I think so, I know the console license changed with the launch of WRC 5.

    kylotonngames it seems... A developer with not many years of racing game experience... I hope they have done a good job!

    I like their ethos though:

    "Composed of racing enthusiasts, our team's strategy is to gradually specialize in the racing games genre."

    I haven't got it, I think it's out now.. I've seen some of the gameplay on the VVV channel on you tube, those guys review and show gameplay from all kinds of racing games. Maybe you should check them out and see if they'll show some of RR2 Dirt when it's ready #

    I definitely agree but currently it's just a bit unbalanced.On the first 2-3 rallies i experienced stuff like: suspension 70% damaged after one stage and without leaving the track.That seems a bit unrealistic.

    But of course i also don't like it when you make no bigger mistakes and you can always just pull all slider completely to the left.That's the case in some of the later rallies.

    As i said,just some fine adjustments needed ;)

    Soooo I've kept the frequency of the corners high in Germany and Australia but halved the severity of them and boy is it fun. Corner after corner of quick but not sharp turns!

    So expect some new tracks soon :)

    This lunch time I messed about with using the bill board system (Grass/Bushes) to make masses of trees in the distance, and it works really well. This is only a first pass but I'm hoping I can really populate finland and sweden now. Like I have always said though, game first, then make it look prettier :)

    The best thing about it is that because they are billboards, they dont look like a flat polygon on the side of the track and look very 3d whilst driving past them.

    I know I am gonna regret this, its another obstacle to avoid, and does an incredible amount of damage, but a key aspect in Germany is Hinkelsteins!

    I'll get them in don't you worry :)

    I've done another pass on Finland and made that the first rally as well. Can't decide what to do with Spain yet as it doesn't do anything for me at the moment.

    I'm planning on doing a build tonight.

    As promised a build has been submitted changes are (pending review still)

    All new Finland and Sweden tracks (similar track layout but they've had a pass on them) I've also set the target times in the fast car and scaled the championship down, I suspect that most wont get past Finland at the moment as it needs a bit more balancing still!

    Finland has about 3x more trees as does sweden

    Racing line only visible when it needs to be (if enabled, selected with intermediate)

    Car unlock screens

    Trophy Screens

    Adjusted audio, you should hear snow and gravel alot more

    Checkpoints work again

    and generally loads of little tweaks here and there

    You will also have everything reset again due to the track changes, but on the plus side you have another 12 tracks to play.

    You've been busy! It all sounds fantastic, looking forward to testing it all out.
