No physics at all, cars feel like paper boats, one of the worst handling models I have ever experienced, even in an arcade game. None of the sim settings they have make any major change to the car, there is simply no weight transfer present.. Then they have the audacity to shove an awful menu track every time you are there and in the races too, with tracks that are too loud and does not fit at all, you have to turn all music off to be sane... Graphics seem muddy and mixed together, feels cheap. No wonder this game was dead on arrival, simply not worth your time..

User Reviews
Quite a decent little game, and for £15.99 it's not bad at all, however I, like many others think this is worth it more on sale. I got it for under £4 which is insane for the amount of content you get, and from what others are saying, it goes on sale often, so it's better waiting until it drops in price. Took me 10 hours pretty much to complete the full story, but I didn't reach max level as I didn't see much point, other than unlocking new liveries, but you reach late Level 70 anyway by completing the main mode (max level is 100), so it's not too much of a grind. I'll start with the negatives first: - Not a lot of game mode variety in this. You pretty much have: normal races, checkpoint races (much akin to Forza Horizon), elimination, time trial and something called smash-up. Although speed cross is very fun - which is basically rally cross. - Smash-up races kinda suck imo. I think DiRT 2's Smash Hunter mode is much better as you're just smashing boxes, whilst in this you ...
i can't believe this isn't DiRT 5
DON'T GET IT! YOU HAVE TO PAY 10 FOR 4 RACES!
Ok... Short and to the point. Forget about this even if it's on sale. The graphics look it's been ported from xbox 360 or ps3. The sound is ordinary, and you can't skip the annoying cutscenes and announcer. Save your money and find something else.
Great game that runs smoothly on almost every configuration. Nice visuals, great gameplay and great controls. Challenging on hardest difficulty but still do-able. Will come back to this one when I'm in the mood again.
This is what Dirt 5 should have been. It's a fun game, and with all assists turned off plus AI difficulty on max it can be very challenging. I play with a T300RS and I really enjoy the experience. Audio is quite bad. It's muddied and cacophonic. I turned in race music off and have my volume almost on max yet it's hard to hear what my engine is doing and I have to keep an eye on my rev meter to judge when to shift gears.
the game is great!!!
Fun off-road arcade racer with a bunch of fun tracks and cars to drive that doesn't overstay its welcome. The game is a bit of a mix of Dirt Showdown, Dirt 5 and a little Motorstorm. Collision physics are a bit of a mess at times, but there's a rewind feature which is always appreciated. On sale with all DLCs can be fun, online is quite dead.
