- There's a reason why there's so much hype on this game.
So, I took my Thrustmaster T500RS to find out why.
Enjoy! ^_^

I remember playing Colin Mcrae Rally back in the days. I had no clue what to do, I just drove without knowing what it is about
Same, blasting in hairpins at 150 km/h and smashing the car until the engine breaks and it doesn't go at more than 70
2.0 had a pretty impressive damage system for it's time.
@@feyt8009 true, considering many racing games of that era didn't have a damage system at all
@@chrissss696 well I'm thinking of the TOCA game, World Touring Cars especially. Mind you it's Codemasters as well.
What to do? Accelerate, brake, turn! That's fucking difficult.
I love how you feel the tyres slipping, and the incredibly satisfying wheel feel when you find traction.

I got got this game in early 2020 and it’s absolutely amazing! There were so many improvement made to 2.0 to make it so much better than the first DiRT Rally. It’s a very difficult game, but with practice, it becomes more and more fun and rewarding each time you play it!
I literally just bought it
15:58 OMG! the co-driver is singing!!
Underrated comment
yes
Man, you are a specialized Car simulation reviewer, you have the experience, knowledge, and not only that, when you criticize something, you do it straight to the point, no exaggerations nor rude language, but also not too soft to the point the criticism is vague, to the point the team at Codemasters could use your feedback as reference for corrections on future versions, or even for fixes via patches.
By this Review alone, i can put my expectations to a nice and safe "i will buy this game" state, because I'm into these kinds of games.
Great Review Viper! ;)
CMR 2.0 music is the only fitting music indeed!
That's CMR 3 soundtrack
I'm looking forward to getting my hands on it soon. Dirt always brings Nostalgia for me
I played the Colin McRae Rally '04 game, when I was around 5 and I've got so many memories. Falling off cliffs in greece, intentionally driving into houses in sweden, literally getting lost in the forest of the UK, because the screen was too dark, while repeatedly killing my engine. All that without ever knowing how to progress in the game, or what progress in the game even meant. I just did shit and had fun.
I remember being full of pride when I told my dad I had beaten Sweden in 2:30 minutes and he was just like "What? I dont know if thats fast. Last time you drove into houses and took 25 minutes" and I was just like "It means I'm pretty quick", without knowing if it was quick. It was just my only ever flawless drive on that game...
It's fascinating now to look back at these times, not saying they were better or worse, just fascinating how I connect phases of my life with videogames I played
Very good review. I would comment about the tarmac physics which some have been critical of. They make the car move like a boat skating on the sea.
Make some setup changes. Don't be afraid to be drastic. All cars come with a gravel biased suspension setup. It does feel 10x better if you tune properly.
Should the suspension be stiffer on tarmac?
@@mclarenguy22 not sure if trolling or serious.
Lower and stiffer.
Serious.
As others have said its mainly due to suspension tuning. However, also consider all cars run with gravel tires. On pavement these tires don't get great grip compared to road tires, and they also have square edges as opposed to round on street tires, which impacts the straight line stability and tendency to lose grip quicker and more harshly.
Your content is really helpful, I think we are all enjoying the beginning of a golden age of sim racing, many thanks
Best review i saw - no talking, i hear game sounds and see what you have to say. Great idea, fantastic effect.
10:35 *nostalgic flashbacks from CMR2*
Amazing review, I like how you showed us the previous game titles... I remember myself playing CMR 2.0 when I was like 9... also I really loved DiRT 2 and 3 very much. I wish I had a good setup or I had enough money to buy one, but without working and hustling, it is no use to cry about this stuff. So summed up, amazing review on this game! :D
What an amazing review, very good work man 👏🏻 I’ve just purchased Dirt Rally 2.0 super deluxe edition on PS store for £29.99, also a TM Sparco R383 rally rim to go with my full rig set up. Can’t wait to get stuck into this game/sim especially after watching your review. Cheers 👊🏻
This is an incredibly good review, straight to the point while also giving us a beckground. No talking or obnoxious exagerrations as well as a summary on the end. I just wish there was more reviews in your style.
I remember having so much fun playing Showdown with friends, it was arcade but it was mindless fun and we laughed our asses off with all that demolition derby style modes, great review btw.
Thanks, great to see the history especially the first two, from the beginning. I realy like your style with letters 👍
That Colin McRae 3 music at the start got me!

Vou forget to say that in the brazilian dub we have Goku as co-driver (sorry my bad english)
Hahahah! Really??? XD
@@viperconcept yeah,if you seek for Wendel Bezerra after see the co-driver in dirt you will see
@@viperconcept It's true! The same guy that dubs Goku in Brazil also worked in the game... and he did a good job! Wendel Bezerra is an awesome person and he really respects his fans. Another fun fact is that Wendel is the voice actor of SpongeBob, hahaha!
Ka-Me-Ha-irpin right don't cut into open 6 right HAAAA
I was in the right track when I purchase this rally game on my PC two days ago your video is awesome thank you you inspire me to play more.
A very comprehensive and enthralling review, I'm glad I found you and I'd like to say that you have one new subscriber in me, brilliant work and all the best. (now to watch more of your videos)
This is the best, most well-crafted review i’ve seen in some time. I love the history lession for the series in the beginning.
I really appreciate the content you make, no unnecessary commentz straight to the point ans very grounded to earth
A very fair review. I love how objective you are. This is by far the most complete out of the box rally game in terms of simulation ever.
Rbr is ancient now and although the ffb is that little bit more detailed, you have to install mods to achieve it.
Ur video's are such high quality man
First time viewing this channel, WOW, what a detailed video, fair play & well done!!
Excellent analysis, and if it comes from you I can be sure that it is a tested evaluation with knowledge and expertise.
Thank's for your job!!
That's why you're my favorite RUclips channel when it comes to racing games. Good work!
Excellent review. Well thought out, balanced and honest. Well done. The only thing you missed on informing us is the selection of vehicles and tracks compared to Dirt Rally, otherwise, simply excellent, thanks! ;)
A great review of a great game in a great channel! Thank you,Viper!
Well thought and build up video. Nice job!
I like how to co drivers voice is affected when you go over bumps while hes talking. Adds another layer to the immersion.
this was the first DiRT game I played and somehow I got the hang of it pretty quickly. I knew it was hardcore which was what I loved about it. The method of how I adapted so fast was by starting with slow cars then working your way up to the suicidal group B cars. But compared to other amazing codemasters games like DiRT 3, this game is amazing to me.
That really shows you how realistic the game is. You can't just jump into a super fast car and drive it like it's nothing, you have to work your way up.
10:32 Colin Mcrae rally 2.0 music 😍
Bellissima recensione! Molto approfondita e dettagliata... Poi il video è uscito addirittura prima della release del gioco ahahahhs
Considering getting it on Steam but i’m still playing Dirt for now so until i complete it, then i’ll move onto this one. Thanks for the review.
Great video, loads of effort put into this, cheers!
Hey, quick question. What's the music from 16:25 onwards? Thanks!

Thank You for this review, much appreciated!
great job viper!! as a rally freak I only have one driving advice for you, use more the weight transfer of the car to drive, hard braking to let the nose get into the corner, more handbrake to drive the rear, full gas trough the corner on AWD cars, prepare the car better before de corner using the weight
Another amazing video yet again from VIPERCONCEPT!!
I am a HUGE fan of the Rwd cars in dirt rally 2.0.
Been driving the M3 e30 for a while. Fun as hell.
2.0 is a game I really enjoy playing the championship mode on. Just doing the first with the Lancia Fulvia was a real challange, even though I won it by quite a bit. Firstly, I felt quite good in the beginning stages of each event but often would fuck up much more towards the end. I thought I was getting unfocused for the longest time before I went to the "Tyres" page during a service and saw the tyres were completely worn, so I changed them and that was a GREAT difference. I understood what was happening during the later stages of rallies. So that really makes a difference. Other than that I thought the Lancia was very nervous for being a FWD car and the back end would come sliding even on tarmac whenever I went off the throttle, so I went in to tunings for the shakedowns and tried adjusting the chamber and toe ins to make it more stable. Really made a difference aswell! So now I was left with a car that pretty much was doing what I wanted it too. But it took some time. Still have a hard time with the tarmac physics but it might just be tuning to chassies, because it's significantly better in Rallycross.
Also it's really unforgiving once you break your headlights and you have one ore two night rounds coming up, so for me it's important to plan ahead and knowing where the service areas come and what to prioritize like "This stage is important to NOT crash because otherwise I will have HELL during the night stages, so if I loose a second here and there doesn't matter too much now, what matters is keeping the headlights intact." Also to stay focused! Can't let off a second because you will crash hard. I found out by running straight off a cliff right before the finish line in Argentina's first stage. Terminal damage, and the second placed AI won the rally so we went in to the last event just 7 points apart, and I broke my headlight in the last 12km long nighttime Aussie stage... Lost 50 seconds but 2nd was enough to take the championship, luckily.
Such a great game. I just got it, haven't played a rally game in years. However this game will keep me hooked for a long time I reckon. Being swedish, I really miss the swedish stages though. People talk of season pass and stuff but I have yet to read up on it. Long post but had to share my excitement!
great review, very professional, this should be the way journalism should review games, with experts in the area
I bought the DIRT Bundle (DiRT 4, Rally and Rally 2.0) for about 3 bucks when it was on sale, having only played DiRT Rally Before.
Although I was a bit hurt by the rehashed DLCs, I was able to buy all the rally traxks and the Colin McRae pack with what was essentially loose change over the next couple days of the sale. And I'm really glad I did. Even the vanilla game had more than enough variety for me, but being able to play my favorites from rally 1 effortlessly, plus the casual fun of the challenges were some of my favorite memories of 2020. Glad I could finally pick this game up :D
Amazing review watched it all till the end. Thank you
Tyre deformation does exist in 2.0, it has done in every game since dirt 2, the punctures also have a visual flattening of the tyre
Love your channel. Your heel toe is impressive. Wondering why you used your T500 and not your Fanatec and why you didn't set up sequential shifting on the TH8A.
Great review, just one thing. The metro r4 was unlockable in Collin McRae rally 2.0, so technically group b cars made their debut there :)
I just realized the game musics around 13:00 are so similar to CMR04's musics?!? This brings back memories about playing CMR04/2005! :) These were my favorite rally game from childhood!
Great game, true succesor to dirt rally. Ive been playing on my t gt setup with tss handbrake, freakin awsome.. The low speed sliding control is on the next level now, with a light foot you can make wonders around the corners.
I started to love that CMR2.0 song again... That bass so good :D
Thanks for another great video =) I'm huge fan. I saw a video of you, mentoring GTS for a person and you were teaching him/her car control (oversteer, understeer) and I like that you went to a track with a car that forces someone to learn and apply counter steer and car control.. but I can't find the video =/ can you tell me which videos is? OR which car / track should I use to train car control? (counter steer, over, under/steer) (I think it was ferrari but I don't know)
Hey thanks for this - I found it really helpful. I love DIRT Rally and hadn't thought to upgrade to v2.0 until recently. But I think your review made me decide to go for it. Wonder if it is possible to add speech audio to your review - at times I found reading text a distraction. Just a thought. I will check out your other reviews too now.
Kudos for the CMR 2.0 Soundtrack!
I purchased the game based on this review - lots of detailed info, thanks!
I remember playing a lot of McRae 2005 on my grandpa's laptop and it was brilliant for it's time.
I clicked on the video at 300km/h when I saw the notification, excellent review!
Hey Viper, greetings from Brazil, what a review! really, the best one!
I got the index vr set and this game is hell a lot of fun with it :D
I have the same gear shifter as you. Its very good!
Great review! I want this game now!
Thanks for video. A quick question - why most of serious sim rally drivers use a separate shifter (not paddle wheel shifter). Is it only for driving immersion or its easier to control car. I haven’t got a shifter or handbrake on playstation DD1 F1 wheel. Looking to buy fanatec wrc rally wheel as I can’t convert ThrustmasterF599XX rim to DD1. Thank you
So this game now has many of the options WRC games have had for years? Bout time.
Good video mate, a pretty deep look into the game and informative, nice little bit of History you done at the beginning as well, I had forgotten about some of them earlier games and I've been playing Codemasters games since before they even started with the whole driving genre.....but what is your overall rating (??/10) for Dirt Rally 2.0 !?
Also, I mean no disrespect at-all but is English your native/1st language ??
Thanks for the video, you answered a few questions I had about the game, Keep on Driving !!
The music from colin 2 and 3, such good memories! And the one from colin 04 i really like it, despite never played that game, at least i still have colin 3 for PC! 😀
Colin Mcrae rally 2.0 is still one of the best and most funny games, that I've ever played til today.
And this was 20 years ago, tomorrow I'll try out Dirt Rally 2.0 and my expectations are high.
Hope I've the same fun that I had 20 years ago with CMR 2.0.
Great video 👍
Great review. And tbh I moreso rely on your opinion and review on this game than others. And since you seemed to like it quite a bit, I think it's safe to say it really must be good!
Your shifting skill is insane! U look like, you are doing a hecking drag race!
Shame to see such essential features have been missed out on, but overall i'm impressed. Might consider picking it up.
i like these kind of videos. so oldschool
thanks for the review. does dirt rally or dirt 4 are better in the way that you feel the ffb on different surfaces?
That CMR04 music gave me goosebumps..
I have only a question... Do we have the WRC/WRC+ cars or we are still "locked" to the R5s?
Thanks for this, you made my mind up 👍
the engine sound of each rally car is important too to make it enjoyable
Very nice! I was just wandering if you play rally games. Are you going to make a review about the WRC game too?
Hey @viperconcept, Danke für das Video. ich habe ebenfalls Dirt 2.0 für PC und bin bis auf die DLC Politik zufrieden.würde gern mit Lenkrad fahren um das ganze noch realistischer zu kriegen. Was lohnt hier mehr das T150 oder doch eher das T300 RS ?
Outstanding review! Great video, really!👍👍👍
What is the first song’s name? I swear I’ve already heard it :(
Cmr 3.0 intro theme
dude you have made me wanna go out and grab a copy of this game now grate vid! you got a new sub in me mate!!!
Considering the writing quality of the review, I'm glad you didn't voice it.
Thank you for the review, though, very comprehensive and detailed.
lol. yeah good review, but presumably not a native english speaker
Great review. Great memories re the early old games. Good driving too, though You’d probably be even better if left foot breaking (not that you are not already kicking me arse) :)
Actually you could change the CO driver settings in dirt rally as well. And there was also time penalty for puncture or car recovery. So really nice review but it seems this opus get the same issue as his father (not enough tracks) :(
I remember playing cmr 2.0 on my familys ps1 when I was like 6❤
Watching at 2:00 am .. love the game.
By the way, you are a good rally driver too! Never saw that before!
Im watching at 2:00 pm...

Yeah only game I could afford in this series is dirt 2 and I did notice more grip on gravel than on a simcade title like GT6.
@@npne1253 We're in 2019 dude. No one asked you to buy a 10 year old game and review it lmao.
@@npne1253 is dirt 2 even being sold? the original dirt rally is... "dirt" cheap right now honestly, you dont even need to play any other rally games, it is just as good as 2.0
We need Dirt Rally 3.0 with VR support with full PS5 Tempest Engine 3D Audio where you can detect precisely where the sound comes because the sound changes frequencies based on the direction, and there are enough profiles so everyone will get like 99% accurate REAL 3D Audio.
Then we need cameras on VR headsets to track our wheel, pedals and gear stick and use that information to map those precisely in correct places and track our hands. So we could see our hands in that VR and move our hands correctly to the wheel and gear stick, without any latency or obscurity in the distances on that 3D space.
So we would have to have all major wheels, gear sticks etc. modeled in the game, and have some logic that can put them into the correct place on that car without phucking up the interiors. But that shouldn't be a huge problem.
That 3D audio that is mapped based on all the directions of the sound, so that the changes and latency are exact as you would have in real life, essentially is 100% sound immersion. We could hear the direction of our tires spinning and sending gravel to our fenders, hear different hits, potholes, everything. It's much more important in full immersion than people think.
And with good VR headsets, having fast enough cameras to track our wheel, gear stick and hands should be possible. As on fast paced game like Rally where our hands would have to hit the wheel and gear stick at exact correct manner to really give us immersion, and not for instance phuck up the gameplay, needs enough cameras enough resolution and enough FPS. Best headsets certainly have that.
If the manufacturers of those headsets (+wheels, pedals, gear sticks) would support the game, as this could be the first game that has perfect immersion because when you are driving, you are sitting down, that game could be made perfect. Also perfect immersion happens because we are not using VR controllers, but actual wheel, pedals and gear stick, so we start to accept the VR graphics as reality. And the sounds essentially can be simulated as reality.
There are probably not a huge amount of people that would buy this game. But having those PS5 consoles, headsets, wheels and gear sticks in trade shows, and electronic retail shops etc. would boost the sales of all of the above, the game, VR headset, PS5 console, Wheel, gear stick and pedals.
loved the intro ...memories
Hope to see some of rally videos! ;)
@viperconcept does forcefeedback give feeling when your wheels are going in or through ruts/grooves on deformed track?
nope. The steering wheel should vibrate more in these cases, but it's too smooth.
@@viperconcept thats sad :/
The Colin McRae Rally 3 music struck me right in the childhood.
A very useful monitor feature is the dark stabilizer in cases like 14:24
i don't usually comment on videos, but i have to say GREAT REVIEW
I can safely say that Dirt 3 got me into the dirt series, and rally games as a whole
Parfaite review. Espérons un petit patch pour le FFB selon surface :)
The last music is really cool!
FIY, in CMR1 you had two Group B cars; the Ford RS200 and the Audi Sport Quattro.
dirt 2 was the best game i've playeed as a child and i love dirt showdown too, those games are really fun to play. i played dirt rally too and i didn't ejoy it quite as much because it didn't really deliver a fun experience, so i sticked to pikes peak only.
i played all of them on keyboard
Its refreshing to see circuit simulator driver trying the rally sim for good.. nice driving... Its abit weird seeing your rig setup like driving a truck/bus... Anyway great review...
Regarding your FFB concern... If you'd get yourself a Fanatec CSL (with a loadcell brake) which is only a tiny bit more expensive than your T500 you'd be able to feel the difference between surface changes, going from more to less traction lightens the wheel significantly, and you can have 5 presets (1 each for snow, dirt, asphalt) and you can change on the fly, (for instance on monaco when you go from snow to tarmac) then you really feel how good they've made it, takes a lot of tinkering to get it right though I use 3 wheel setups for Rally, 1 for F1 and 1 for other GT games (assetto/Raceroom etc!) Oh and also about immersion, I use VR...almost too realistic :)
The game is so good! Best simulation game i found for rally! at first i was like meh, then i dialed in my steering wheel and the patch fixed the force feedback on my g29 wheel and i was like wow now this feels amazing! Now i can drift the car nicely around corners and slide easily and its so much fun!
