Jeez, using a controller with gyro is not something I could manage I don’t think. Hats off to you haha



Hey guys! Hope you don’t mind the post here but I just set up a new community geared around sim racing and sim rally as I couldn’t find anything active on Lemmy centred around these. If this suits your interest, feel free to join and post! :) https://lemmy.world/c/simrallyracing[Sim rally & racing community](https://lemmy.world/c/simrallyracing)

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/17025805 (Not just a spammy cross post- this is gaming related- specifically sim racing and EA WRC!) It's here! I did Episode 2 of my new video series: Rally Showcase. Hopefully a lot better quality and editing than the last one...thanks for your patience while I figure out the ropes haha. This time, we're looking at the Peugeot 205 T16 - The Group B weapon that kept the likes of Lancia and Audi on their toes for a long time.

Let me guess, you’ve put more than $/£40 into the game and want to find ways to justify it?


“Dev says”

So it’s not happening then, gotcha

Star Citizen is one of the biggest scams ever in the gaming industry. Stop pumping money into these greedy fucks.


Honestly? I really don’t get the hate that all these comments are generating. I don’t think we’ve seen enough of the dialogue from the characters to know what the casted actors are going to do with them.

I personally think it might be a bit refreshing, like a reboot. All of us lost faith in the Borderlands story at the Presequel I think. I think this plays into the wacky and wild elements of BL2 (indisputably the favourite in the whole series, wouldn’t you agree?), rather than the unfunny stuff of 3, don’t you think?

I’m not saying that off the bat it’s going to be amazing. I’m saying that I think it’s worth a shot, it’s worth waiting until we see it before we shit on it- I don’t think this trailer makes it look like trash. It has potential. Don’t you think, guys?


& @lobstrosity bear in mind the original Dirt series never got VR until much later. In my opinion, I’d rather they got the performance and optimisation straight before they even think about touching VR.

Granted, they should have just released the game actually fully ready in the first place but who even does that these days anyway /s


In my opinion, I really enjoy it. I wouldn’t say it’s HUGE improvement over Dirt 2, but the simple fact is you get lots more stages and tracks to play, lots more cars and a lot more choice of things to do.

It sure has it bugs and niggles, and can be a pain in the arse to get running smoothly if your PC is one of the ones that it isn’t very well optimised for (like mine)- but I keep coming back to it. I enjoy it, really. The tarmac physics are improved vastly.

In my opinion given the pace of updates and commitments from Codemasters, it’s worth getting. I don’t think I’ve been back to Dirt Rally 2 as there isn’t anything on there that EA WRC doesn’t have already. It’s just essentially an expansion for DR2.


We’re not a bunch of pros with impossible racing rigs or anything- we just love rally and enjoy trying different stages, cars and talking about rally. Heres our link if you fancy joining :) https://m.racenet.com/ea_sports_wrc/clubs/8362 We do have a Discord too but I don’t want to just spam links. Drop a comment/message if you’re interested!
