![]() There is a real sense of needing to understand the feel and the behaviour of each individual car you decide to take to the track if you hope to be successful. The actual handling of the cars is a lot like the original DiRT Rally too, with each slight turn on the steering wheel enough to send your car careering over the edge of the track boundaries should you have made your move too early or too late. Taking corners on a dusty dirt track will see the muck kicking up behind your car in the rear-view mirror, pebbles can be heard bouncing off the side of your car as you fly through each corner and every grass verge, while rocky ascents and bottomless ditches all scream danger slashed tires, or rolled vehicle are sure fire ways to either add a ton of time onto your overall result or put an end to your race entirely. From the moment the green lights are a go and you chuck your ride into 1st gear, things only become more and more exciting. Onto the track though and DiRT Rally 2.0 is an incredible rally experience. Often cars can be purchased as second hand too, with just a few technical damages to worry about so you can often get involved in the best rides for a little cheaper should you spend the time to look through every available option. There are a ton of vehicles within DiRT Rally 2.0 to tear it up in, from H1 FWD machines such as the Mini Cooper S and the Alpine A110, all the way to the Group A 4WD beasts such as the Subaru Impreza 1995 and the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI, before moving on to the RX Supercars and R5 monsters such as the Ford Fiesta Rallycross R5, the Citroen C3 R5, and the Skoda Fabia R5. ![]() There is however only one thing you will ever need to worry about before stepping out onto the track and that’s the car you’re going to use. You’ll need to be found repairing your cars too. This is one which will see big benefits should you wish to pump hard earned race winnings into it from the start, as you hire and build a team of race engineers, reaping the rewards of lower repair times and bringing the cost of those repairs down too. You will also want to take advantage of the Staff option within DiRT Rally 2.0. These challenges often have vehicle requirements attached though, so it’s best to get some cash saved up in the Career mode first, to ensure you’ll have something to drive once a challenge you like the look of comes up. Both of these can bring singular events that are available for just 24 hours, or multi-stage week-long events, with players rewarded depending on what Tier they finish in once the event is completed. Joining the Career mode options are the aforementioned Challenges, which come in the form of Community Event Challenges and AI Challenges. Sadly, the presentation of these doesn’t become any clearer as you progress, but at least the content is there. Fortunately, things do pick up, and after you’ve completed each of the events in your current championship, the next championship that provides more of a challenge and a bigger reward unlocks, continuing until you’ve mastered them all. After jumping into either one, you’ll be faced with the championship that you’ll be taking part in, but unlike previous titles in the DiRT saga, there is very little that’s made about what you’ll be progressing towards in fact I was left wondering if that was all we would be getting from a series that usually provides a lengthy and in-depth career mode. The first place to start should always be with the Career option and in DiRT Rally 2.0 there are two distinct paths to choose from Career Rally – your traditional timed rally races comprising of sectors – and Career Rallycross. ![]() Want to win a 12 month Xbox Live Gold subscription?
