Sweden stages with no or small snowbanks

Is it possible for the upcoming DLC to also upgrade the rest of swedish stages? The track feeling is great, but the lack of snowbanks in some areas is really disappointing. The rally is too easy in the stages where the snowbans are lacking, they don't have to big but Sweden without snowbanks is boring.

  • In my opinion it has to do with the driving model and the central pivot point. The car turns in a strange way as if the rear wheels were turning and throwing the rear. It would cause the car to constantly hit the snowbanks with the rear

    No, physics and handling are fine, actually really good, I keep switching and comparing with DIRT RALLY 2.0 and WRC does it better. For me and I'm only guessing, is that they took the snowbanks out or leved it down, probably because of graphic or game performance and maybe to make Sweden easier. I say that, because if you pay attetion to the pacenotes, they feel as they were made for tighter corners/sections. They are mostly wrong, only when the stage geology or elevation suits the notes, then they are right. I hope they do something about it, but probably not, at least the new Umea stages on the upcoming DLC, looks like real swedish conditions.

    Just started playing this game and the problem with the lack of snow banks for me is that without them there are long fast sections of the track where you actually can’t see the track, it’s all one bright white blur and the pace notes don’t help so I end up with corner cut penalties or flying through the air.

    WRC Generations did a good job with Sweden as far as banks on the side of the road and a greater difference in the “road” where the cars are driving so you can actually see what the pace notes are talking about rather than trying to run it blind.
