A little less grip would make the game feels more realistic

The physics feel considerably better than in Dirt Rally 2.0 but I think that by removing just a little more grip the game would get much closer to reality where the cars sometimes struggle even on the straights when the road is very loose and the drivers always use the weight transfer even at low speeds the cars start to skid in the corners, I think this could improve the game a lot.

  • @maxwrc1 Disagree, we need realisms based on DATA, not on our PERCEPTION. Real WRC cars have a lot of grip.

    ps. It will be interesting to know how they gather data for physics if they use for example real cars from teams data/telemetry.
  • De acuerdo con que tenemos que guiarnos de los datos, pero tiene toda la razón el juego con un poco menos de agarre seria lo correcto, todos hemos visto videos de rallyes y se ve perfectamente que los coches patinan, incluso cuando usas freno de mano en un curva cerrada el coche no es capaz de patinar como lo haria en la realidad, en tierra pasa lo mismo, pero bueno son cosas que se iran mejorando 

  • I fully agree with you.

    I think less grip would be beneficial but also some work on the grip limit and how it starts sliding under power. It is literally impossible to do a hairpin in a proper rally way. You cannot throw the car while making the rear-end slide so you avoid understeer. Not even with the handbrake or power sliding on the exit. This feedback is based on Rally1 and Rally2 cars, but I heard from other people that RWD are suffering the same issues.

    @rallyefan Although you are right based on using telemetry and data, you have to consider that when passing those data to the game, they are just an interpretation of them, in the end what really matters are the sensations that the simulator transmits to the user, and the realism experience that it gives you, there will be people who enjoy driving, but we also have people with experience outside the simulator and based on this we can compare the sensations, in this case from my point of view and experience in most of the occasions the cars feel very loose on some of the surfaces in real life, more than what the game transmit. I am not saying that the physics feel bad, they are actually really good and better than Dirt rally 2.0, but i think this can make the sim feels even better.
