£23 down the shitter. Never again Codmasters, never again.


Sure whatever it is will get sorted, what OS are you running?

EDIT - Have you tried running the .exe in compatibility mode? Apparently has worked for someone running in 640x480, presumably you can then change the resolution ingame.


Win 8.1.

I'm gonna leave it for a couple of days, see what happens.

Depends what you mean by not looking that pretty.

Its running on the same graphics engine that Dirt 3 had and it looks like it. On the other hand it still makes it the best looking rally game you can currently get.


Oh rly?

Been putting more time into this today, its bloody brilliant. It might look a little scruffy round the edges but even 4 years on from Dirt 3 the graphics do still have the ability to look stunning on occasion.

Loving the pace notes too, especially when there are slight pauses and corrections makes it feel more real.

What are you using to take those captures? Just tried ShadowPlay but I'm not really sure what I'm doing with it.

Just had a quick blast as I loved CMR on the PS1 and I really liked it. Pretty brutal difficulty wise, but still really enjoyed it and it's a game I can play in short bursts when I don't have loads of time to spare. And I really like the menu music as well :wub:

strawberry floating stuck in low automatically ( :x ) until I put it on Ultra and the benchmark read an average of 85fps at 1080p :datass:

Anyone getting this on launch? I haven't been excited about a racing game for quite a while now and this looks and runs beautifully. My only worry is that the game will be a little too hard for the average gamer.

Soooo, is anyone picking this up on PS4/Xbox tomorrow or has everyone played it already? I've ordered if off eBay for £33 (Legend edition). First game I've purchased on or near launch in ages. Really looking forward to it.

To this day I don't think there's a game I've mastered more than I did Colin McRae 4.0. Well, maybe Destruction Derby 1...

I decided to pick it up on PS4 as well as having it on PC.

Isn't this out next Tuesday?

I'll probably get the X1 version as I have all the others games on Xbox.

Yeah out on the 5th, I'd imagine that people might start get copies over the weekend though.

Cool, I'll probably stop off at the shops tomorrow on the off chance it's on the shelves early.

I look forward to impressions of the console versions over the weekend, because right now I've hardly seen any information at all.

This will be the first game I bought at launch since GTA5 or Driveclub :oops: I've wanted a true rally game in forever though, so I would be a dick if I didn't support this

Review went up on Eurogamer yesterday, they also had an article a while back about it being pretty close to the PC version...

Thanks H! I'll check those out. Usually racing games don't tend to review too well and I expect this one to be much the same, especially as it's a lot harder than the casual stuff
