    I burst into a fit of laughter 4 seconds into the trailer. "This is not racing". Yes, it's under EA supervision, it's probably going to be a casino simulator with some rally attached.

    But more seriously, I love Codemaster games (played every Colin McRae/Dirt game apart from Dirt 5), so I'm cautiously excited. WRC Generations was a fun experience (the latest official WRC game, done by a different studio).

    I wonder if the "over 600km of stage miles" is unique kilometers or everything summed up. Dirt Rally 1 and 2 had stages that were A to B, B to C, A to C and all of them reversed, meaning the same sections were in 4 different stages.

  3. DR2 had 12 stages of each country. 4 original, 4 reverse and 2 joined together forward and reverse.

    WRC and Generations had the same essentially but the last one was a Rallycross event with other cars.

    I'm not expecting 600km unique. Though if it was , with 13 countries on the calendar, thats enough for each to have 2 stages af around 25km.

    I just hope if they do 1-1 recreation like dirt rally the actually have a combined full stage. Most of the stages in DR were 1 stage split into two, which were then fragmented even further.

    I just hope they do properly long stages and not 4-7 km stints that are over before they begin.

    Yes like that 1999 Rally Championship by Magnetic Fields I mentioned in the other thread. All the stages of the six UK rallys, some of which were over 20 miles long and 1:1 with the real map.
