How realistic is it physics and driving handling wise?
>inb4 /ovg/ >inb4 get dirt rally
I got this one for free, disabled all asists, play with a keyboard on Group B rally racing and was able to finish 2nd in my third try. I want to know if its just illustion of me being good because the game has similar physics of driving as Driver San fransisco or if i am genuinely fucking good.
Nice trips. I own the game, and I can tell you that the games is really easy to get good at and the physics are not all that realistic (but in a good way)
Lucas Jones
i have it on the 360, and i've had a ton of fun with it. Once you get the hang of it it's pretty damn easy, but if you're wanting to buy it, do it.

>How realistic is it physics and driving handling wise?
Absolutely not at all
Benjamin Long
The game is fun. I wouldn't say it's anywhere close to realistic. Just took pic related after I saw this thread. Keyboard, no assists, Group B rally.
Hunter Sanders
Good with an XB1 controller? I have no access to my wheel atm
Gabriel Thompson
hardcore diff? with the hardest AI?
Well. What a shame :( now i have to get down from my high horse.
Kevin Perry
It's simcade. You can get a modded launcher that lets you drop the grip levels to a percentage of the originals, but it's still not "realistic"(though lots of fun). Dirt Rally is also a joke in the handling department when compared to RBR and RSRBR.
Owen Morales
Not OP, I don't understand why he wouldn't post this. Wants to keep it to himself I guess.
For anybody interested, here is Dirt 3 complete edition for free. Enjoy.
Its just that i dont have enough money for a steering wheel but i really want to get fucking good at simulators.
Ive played so much BeamNG and some simulators and MSC with keyboard that simcades or arcade racing games just feel like shit.
Ive retried NFS MW 2005 which is my fav NFS game and i could NOT stand the physics. The car were on ice so much i just uninstalled the game.
Tried the crew and i am doubting about uninstalling it because of how shitty the physics are.
I just want a fucking simulator game and know that i can get good at it without investing 1000 bucks for a steering wheel and a basic 3 pedal setup.

IF you have an xbox one or PS3/4, the Forza games (excluding horizon), and Gran Torismo games are really good. try them.
Landon Nguyen
I dont have a PS3/4 and while i really like hardcore sim, i like hardcore sim even more if its open world, so things like horizon or TDU1 are what i really fucking want :(
Carter Lewis
a logitech wheel is less than $400 and rfactor2 can be pirated. i don't know where you got $1000 from unless you're talking about getting iRacing and all of its content.
Eli Roberts
buy a negcon and a PS1->USB adapter
Jackson Parker
i live in southamerica. That's why.
I might think about US shipping to argentina. But tax for imports might fuck me with no lube.
Jaxson Sanchez
any game that has "assists" like Dirt 3 doesn't even deserve to exist.
David Hernandez
DUDE GYMKHANA LMAO
Blake Cook
This is on Humblebundle right now for 100% free on Steam, just so you guys know.
Aiden Turner
Why dont you just play an actual simulator if you want to get good at simulators?
There are plenty of people who play sims with just a gamepad and are still happy. If you don't want or can't afford a wheel+pedal setup, then it's not the end of the world.
And if you are already mad at the games you played, boy you will be mad at yourself when you will try games with some actual realism in them
Justin Gray
Gymkhana ruined the game for me 2bh, I prefer Dirt 2 for that sole reason.
Jacob Roberts
LMAO dude, you should play on beginner difficulty, it actually breaks for you and follows the racing line sometimes.
Logan White
buy an used DFGT/G25/G27 moran
Jonathan Young
I play all racing games on a G27 and say im fairly skilled, but i absolutely ate dogs ass at this game with a wheel. I dont know why.. i did better with a controller. Maybe rally isnt my thing
Brody Wood
>racing game with a keyboard
Shit nigga just go get a third party xbone controller or something even that would be x100 better
Kayden Martin
i am playing on difficulty 6 with no ABS, "LMAO dude".
Aiden Martinez
your may have trips, but you are still sputing bullshit
there is nothing wrong with keyboard
you just have know how to handle the keys
Matthew Evans
My favorite genre is racing and I've been playing it with a keyboard or controller buttons for the last 18 years or so. It actually feels more natural than wiggling a thumbstick around by now. The only things it's insufficient for are actual simulators.
Jayden Stewart
Dirt 3 has more of a focus on goin fast in da woods and that is enough to bring it so much above dirt 2's Constant memecross that it can't even be seen
Austin Ramirez
Horizon is not a sim, its pretty arcadey.
Bentley Morgan
I just miss dirt 2's warm aesthetic and soundtrack.
Aiden Peterson
But its either that or nothing since there is no TDU3
Leo Harris
I loved dirt 3 with the G27 and on 900 degrees of rotation. It was fucking crazy and intense. I like dirt rally too but thats nowhere near as intense because realism results in much lower speeds. I am a sim guy but dirt 3 has a special place for me due to its sheer craziness.
Joseph Walker
I finished the first season with full driver assist and automatic, should i change to advance and manual, how hard is it?
Nathaniel Morales
Horizon took all the best stuff from TDU and added a bit of Dirt with NFS and it all works fantastically.
Zachary Hill
I see old school Microsoft wheels/pedals for 20$ at my local thrift store.
Lots of fun but no clutch/gearknob.
Noah Russell
game can be quite fucking hardcore. I have every difficulty option cranked up, on manual, no HUD, not even ABS and its kicking my ass and i love it
Yes. But there is no replacement. If someone took Horizon and remade it as something more realistic i would buy it in a dime.
I can find cheap wheel and pedals everywhere too. But as soon as we talk about 3 pedal setup or force feedback the price skyrockets.
Kayden Cox
Twitchy with an xb1 controller on the PC, but still fun.
Jaxon Campbell
I got it from here and I'm having a lot of fun with it, really, jump on this if you have the time
Lucas Russell
Do people still play this online on XB1? Thinking about getting it but don't want to spend the money if there's no community.
Jacob Ward
Using this game to teach my grill about racing lines >realism it's no Gran Turismo >fun and challenging even on casual the later racing series get harder and setting up your vehicle matters more
>if only there was no ken block gymkhana shit I just want to race
Jace Martin
Honestly. Even granturismo cannot be held as an actual simulator nowadays.
Kevin Richardson
>play with a keyboard
Well there's your problem, get those rocketcandy 360 controllers which are really cheap
Carson Flores
Ehhh, I would usually agree with you, but controllers are objectively better for racing games. You have more control over turns, braking, and acceleration.
Camden Adams
You can't argue that being able to vary the amount of input you put in is worse than only using absolutes i.e. on or off.
Christian Perry
Yes because that's how you normally drive a car irl, right?
Chase Morgan
I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic
Fuck yes that's how I drive my car, I don't turn the wheel 90 degrees for a half second
Levi Cox
Your post implied that using "absolutes" inputs is better than being able to vary the intensity of the input and my sarcastic reply implied that that's not how you drive a real car at all. You don't accelerate with pulses of 100% gas all the time or brake by mashing the brake pedal to the max or turn by quickly oscillating the steering wheel between straight and full lock position
Benjamin Morgan
if you want realism, get assetto corsa
Nicholas Cooper
Have you even PLAYED Horizon 3? Mate it feels perfect.
>decide to try GRID: 2 after a month of FH3 because fuck it, had gotten it with games w/ gold for free a while ago.
>Start first race >why are my tires made fom black ice >why does my car weigh 2 lbs >go back to Horizon 3 >everything is perfect again
Andrew Thompson
This. Assetto corsa is actually a challenging racing game. Even though there isnt a massive amount of content, the way the steering, brakes, throttle and weight distribution feels is awesome.
