Great video! Codemasters should be ashamed for releasing this crap on PC, is disrespectful to rally lovers and to CMR2.0, is cheap, ugly, and just an attempt to milk the fans. I actually think that the new Dirt Rally should be called Colin McRae Rally as a homage to him. I think he would be proud of what they created.
Jo, já o tom uvažoval, ale on dodělávaný motion blur vypadá ještě hůř, než dodělávaný bloom ;) (A i na tom bloomu jsem se docela vyvztekal, strávil jsem s takovou pitomostí několik hodin, jen abych nastavil úroveň, která bude jakž takž vypadat jako skutečný herní bloom, a přitom bude dostatečně postřehnutelná.)
***** I am indeed from Europe, and I've played plenty of rally games, for what it's worth. As far as rally simulation, I'd only really consider Richard Burns Rally or Dirt Rally to be actually called simulation. The feel of those tow games is different (and RBR is quite old now, though the community is still going strong), but I'd think they're both pretty close and a ton of fun, worth sinking countless hours into. If I was to name a third one, it would probably be Mobil 1 British Rally Championship aka Rally Championship 2000 - it's an old game by now and the physics can be kinda weird, but its (real-life) stages and the overall "rally feel" still holds up. It also features probably the longest officially released rally stage in any game ever, the 42 km long Pundershaw. But I'm also perfectly able to have fun with the less realistic rally games, be it the CMR series, the Dirt series or the WRC series - these games can be a lot of fun, even if they're not that realistic. But that's all on PC. I can't really tell you anything about PS3 or PS4, I've never owned any console, so I don't really know much about the games available on them.
the cockpit part blowed up my mind, and I never felt so pissed off by the fact one of my childhood game is fucked up in the name of some kind of HD remaster shit.
Once I watched this video, I learn the reason why this game get so much hate..everything that you expect when this "remastered" come out ruined. Good thing I still have my CMR2..
I'm not much into racing games cuz I basically suck at them lol, but a friend of mine showed me your video; my applause, you got your point shown. Typical attempt of scamming fans of the series, not the first company to try it.
*1.09 plus SilentPatch for proper widescreen and support for modern operating systems. The Sold-Out Software budget re-release already came pre-patched with v1.11, but SilentPatch is still a must.
I want to add one thing. the ps1 version is even better, the cockpit isn't fully animated and the graphics aren't as good but the physics are even better and the game is faster.
Dead on bro. I was so disappointed in the Android CMR, I picked up on the iffy physics and all right off the bat. I was browsing today and saw the Remastered release, which I didn't even know happened and was thinking about buying it, thanks for the video.
Well, I just made a little modification for cmr2, all cars in special stages and arcade mode looks like the player car, max details for all cars. Soon on moddb, for CMR2 and CMR04.
Hi there, someone knows how i can run the "Colin McRae Rally Remastered" for GNU/Linux, made in Unity3D, with Spanish Text ? The Windows versions i can use a laucher for set text localization/language, but with the native for GNU/Linux i don't not how to set it by default.
Great video, thanks for the the upload, that footage of the reply on the Focus was pure art (my heart was smiling) I loved the Arcade track in Italy and trying to beat my time record 44.46 in the Subaru :) my all time favourite time just ahead of Street Fighter 2.
I don't know what would be more satisfying? Completing the remaster or winning the Championship using Escort (or Mini if PS version). By the game, I feel that night need another remake, but this is botched, I didn't even play it.
No, UŽ to za něj nevydávají, protože přepsali marketingové texty poté, co se zvedla obrovská vlna nevole ze strany fanoušků původní hry, kteří si to koupili. Teď už v nich výslovně píšou, že je to PC verze té mobilní hry a z CMR2 jen "vychází". V těch původních to jako remake CMR2 poměrně hodně působilo a spousta lidí jim na to skočila. Viz třeba původní trailer, který zůstal nezměněný - z něj by se jeden snadno domníval, že to je skutečně jen CMR2 v (o něco) hezčím kabátu.
+H4lf Lif3 (l3ft4d3ad3) I'm guessing you didn't actually watch the video. The answer to your question starts at 6:20. To sum it up for you: there's really no physics to speak of in this "remaster". And yes, it is a mobile game port. It has almost nothing in common with the original except some of the tracks.
Nice vid bro :) It's true that this game wasn't finally so "remastered" but i think that the programmers put some small effort into makin' it a bit beeter though...For example: they put some new textures( a bit cheepie ones) to the cars and the stages.But the overall game wasn't looking that good...
So many wrong doings, bad physics, cheap graphics, only 4 cars, 3 countries, bad handling, the cars feels slow, understeer and oversteer at the wrong places, bad handbrake, reusing 2 of the Italy stages as France (sorry for correcting you, you said in the video that Italy SS1 is Corsica but I get it. They call it Corsica in 2.0 Re. Also the cars were not AWD, it is 4WD), the cars get easily damaged and the damage mechanic does not make sense and more. The release of it was bad thing. I tried to speedrun it, It was not great and took to much time. Might try again later. Such a disrespect to Colin, to his family, to the fans, the franchise and OG 2.0
Great video. Something that you could have added is the lame performance of the co-driver. In CMR2, the co-driver's speech is well constructed. However, in CMR Remastered the co-driver sounds like if the words were cropped and simply put in order, not resembling at all an actual speech. For example, in CMR2 this line is spoken like this: "Thirty long three right, opens". Sounds pretty good, but in CMR Remastered sounds like a robot, pretty much like "Thirty. Long. Three. Right. Opens". Seriously? By the way, DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHAT THE F*CK DOES THE CO-DRIVER SAY AT 0:27, 0:35, 1:43, 1:55 and so on, instead of saying "four", when the yellow arrow signal appears? Just wondering :P Again, awesome video!
Nice video, made me think a lot. And, by the way, another awful thing from the "remastered" version: The co driver.The co driver in CMR2 was really good for me. Sounds smooth and realistic. But in CMR remastered, sounds like a robot. "Seventy. Five. Right. Tightens." It's just a cocktail of attached words. I don't like it at all.
btw, did ya know that this "remastered hd" is actually ios game port , not actual cme 2.0 port, cuz Codemasters developer Justin admitted himself about it.
No worries. I never really expect anyone to actually read my boring notes in the videos anyway ;) I should start narrating them, it would make the videos shorter and less boring, but I'm not much of a public talker and I'm also not a native English speaker, so...yeah. Maybe someday.
but fantastic video anyway, even though it was for 5-7 euros on steam at that time, their PR was fucked up beyond belief, thankfully, the re-release of dirt 3 complete edition without gfwl drm shit and recent dirt rally which i tested have redeemed that blunder completely.
Yes, technically the rally is called Rally Italy in the original CMR2 and Rally Corsica in the remastered edition, and the location of the rally is supposedly different (the CMR2 Rally Italy is supposedly located somewhere east of Genova, according to the in-game map). However, it's really the exact same rally in both cases. The only appreciable difference is the slightly different skybox.
I agree! I remember played this game before on my old Samsung Tab 2 7.0. At first, I liked it but now I don't like it that much. It just mediocre to me.
It was ok as a game on my iPad but as a PC game the remastered version is awful. I grew up with CMR 04 but I played the older ones after that and I can independently verify that remastered is rather the wrong word to use!!
@@Case_ I think they're referring to the livery you've got on the Impreza. Different versions of the game have different Impreza liveries, so that's where the confusion stems from
Oh well... A remastered pack with modern graphics of games up to cmr4 would be nice. Too bad you can't play 1-2 on Windows starting with win8. The compatibility layer is f*cked and they don't give a fuck. The fourth is best in my opinion. If I were to pick up one to play it would be that one. It has the best physics, but still fun unlike the brutal Richard Burns Rally.
avada There's the Early Access Dirt Rally now. It's already an awesome game and it's a more serious take at rally, despite it's Dirt moniker. Then again, I do consider RBR great fun, not brutal.
Creators of this shit on mobile decided to name it NFS, but it's the same deal like with CMR, but it's worse And I meant that this game shouldn't be named NFS but nobody is complaining about this, not like you about remaster version of CMR
Well, if it's a game that gives NFS franchise a bad name, then you've certainly piqued my interest about it. Never thought something like that would even be possible at this point.
new gameplay is better, most realistic, I like it,... 4 problems for me, why not use the ford focus, subaru wrx sti and lancer evo, from now, the last versions, second why change the original theme, third why they put the last car as lancia stratos, the best rally car of all time is Lancia Delta Integrale (they should use this car or at least a new car like the Lancia Delta S4 group B), and last why codemasters didnt uptade with more tracks and cars, they forgot the game.......
Will never understand the meaning of Remastered titles. People just buy them without understanding that it is the same game , only worse - with more eye candy. Got ripped of from Halo CE Anniversary once. STOP BUYING REMASTERED TITLES
the cockpit part blowed up my mind, and I never felt so pissed off by the fact one of my childhood game is fucked up in the name of some kind of HD remaster shit.
I love how "Corsica" in CMR "remastered" has both French and Italian stages... lol
cmr remastered should be called cmr demastered
Great video! Codemasters should be ashamed for releasing this crap on PC, is disrespectful to rally lovers and to CMR2.0, is cheap, ugly, and just an attempt to milk the fans. I actually think that the new Dirt Rally should be called Colin McRae Rally as a homage to him. I think he would be proud of what they created.
Took a bit longer than expected, but here's my video on the so-called Colin McRae Rally Remastered.
TL;DR version: Run away! Run away!
Jo, já o tom uvažoval, ale on dodělávaný motion blur vypadá ještě hůř, než dodělávaný bloom ;) (A i na tom bloomu jsem se docela vyvztekal, strávil jsem s takovou pitomostí několik hodin, jen abych nastavil úroveň, která bude jakž takž vypadat jako skutečný herní bloom, a přitom bude dostatečně postřehnutelná.)
Aplikace NohBoard, nedávno jsem linkoval.
Where I can find patch 1.09 for CMR 2.0 ?

This "remastered" version is a real insult not only to CMR fans, but to any racing games fan.

Did somebody else realise about the HAUNTED TREES at 8:57.
That was a pretty normal thing back in the day.
I want to add one thing. the ps1 version is even better, the cockpit isn't fully animated and the graphics aren't as good but the physics are even better and the game is faster.
Playing psx version on cockpit view was death ahah

I can't find it on there :( May I have a link?
WTF that remastered cockpit view??? :DDD What a shame...
Great video man, by the way how do you add the arrow keys and handbrake thing into your video ?
A free app called NohBoard, made a sort-of custom overlay.
Hi there, someone knows how i can run the "Colin McRae Rally Remastered" for GNU/Linux, made in Unity3D, with Spanish Text ?
The Windows versions i can use a laucher for set text localization/language, but with the native for GNU/Linux i don't not how to set it by default.
If you have any details in your travels, what's the original CMR2's angle for its field of view in driver's position and ~ hood of the car?
Great video, thanks for the the upload, that footage of the reply on the Focus was pure art (my heart was smiling) I loved the Arcade track in Italy and trying to beat my time record 44.46 in the Subaru :) my all time favourite time just ahead of Street Fighter 2.

Kde vyděláš, tam vyděláš, to je přece krédo dnešní doby ne? Aspoň že to nevydávají za remake...

I was on the fence about buying the new version but not anymore. Thanks for the heads up.
can u explain me what are u using to see onscreen the keyboard clicks? ty
+Alessandro guioHD It's been answered a few times before in the comments... A free app called NohBoard, made a sort-of custom overlay.
Martin Fiala ok ty, i didnt read previously comment just because this is my first your video i saw
Worst thing is the physics and the fact that all the cars only have one side view mirror
Can anyone tell me if the physics are inferior to the original one? Ive heard this is a mobile port
+H4lf Lif3 (l3ft4d3ad3) I'm guessing you didn't actually watch the video. The answer to your question starts at 6:20.
To sum it up for you: there's really no physics to speak of in this "remaster".
And yes, it is a mobile game port. It has almost nothing in common with the original except some of the tracks.
Martin Fiala Figured thanks
I prefer clean (not tragic even today) CMR2 grapchics than that overbloomed shitty remaster!

Yep, I feel the same way.
The Android version is waaaay better because it takes only about 180 MB.
I'm pretty sure that at 5:20, you're playing in Italy, not Corsica...
Yes, technically the rally is called Rally Italy in the original CMR2 and Rally Corsica in the remastered edition, and the location of the rally is supposedly different (the CMR2 Rally Italy is supposedly located somewhere east of Genova, according to the in-game map).

Colin McRae Rally 2 >> Colin McRae Rally Remastered
Are u the captain Obvious? Lmao
I agree! I remember played this game before on my old Samsung Tab 2 7.0. At first, I liked it but now I don't like it that much. It just mediocre to me.
I'm going with the obvious choice. The original Colin McRae Rally 2 is better than the remake.

wish they released more cars for the remastered game :/ 4 isnt enough for me..
and more stages also
subaru impreza mod link?
Eh?
@@Case_ I think they're referring to the livery you've got on the Impreza. Different versions of the game have different Impreza liveries, so that's where the confusion stems from
@@Yosherax Ah. I had no idea. Thanks.
i don't like it. it overdone too much. I perfer CM 2.0 on PS1 with original graphics. That is how i remember as a child back in the day.
but can u run it on win 10???
It being the remaster or the regular CMR2?
One thing i think that there was other dev that he destroyed this awesome franchise
wheel support is also terrible in the remaster
remastr ma snad zaplou stabilizaci, automaticky brzdeni a trakci, ne? hruza jak tomu padaji otacky v zatacce
Oh well... A remastered pack with modern graphics of games up to cmr4 would be nice.

I have XP and i play CMR 2.0.
edit: not anymore, mah computer died ;-;
In 14 years they've made worse cockpit view from entire cmr. Shame on them.
It should be same with "NFS" "No Limits", worse bullshit than this and nobody is complaining :v
Might be because nobody really cares about NFS at this point? I surely don't. Also, isn't NFS: No Limits mobile game? This is a PC game (technically).
Creators of this shit on mobile decided to name it NFS, but it's the same deal like with CMR, but it's worse
And I meant that this game shouldn't be named NFS but nobody is complaining about this, not like you about remaster version of CMR
Well, if it's a game that gives NFS franchise a bad name, then you've certainly piqued my interest about it. Never thought something like that would even be possible at this point.
This is not the game, at least definitely not this what creators promised us (sry for my english if I made any mistakes)(but I feel that I did xD)
Exactly! This remake is shit compared to the real CMR 2, gameplay, damages, graphics is better in the original one.
Its the mobile version
This is PC version.
Case yes but its a port of the mobile version right
Well, yeah, more or less. But it was not presented as such, at least not back when the video was made.
May just be me but the remaster looks worse than cmr 04
new gameplay is better, most realistic, I like it,... 4 problems for me, why not use the ford focus, subaru wrx sti and lancer evo, from now, the last versions, second why change the original theme, third why they put the last car as lancia stratos, the best rally car of all time is Lancia Delta Integrale (they should use this car or at least a new car like the Lancia Delta S4 group B), and last why codemasters didnt uptade with more tracks and cars, they forgot the game.......
lol
car not move in remastered lol
I dont think so, but your sister is fat
halo 2 remaster was better than this right?
Oryginal looks better
Bloom is terrible effect
Well, as with all effects, it depends on how it is used (and on the amount of it). But it is rarely used in a good way, that's true.
2.0 better
Will never understand the meaning of Remastered titles. People just buy them without understanding that it is the same game , only worse - with more eye candy. Got ripped of from Halo CE Anniversary once.
STOP BUYING REMASTERED TITLES
Nothing wrong with more eye candy if the game is really the same or better. This one certainly is not the same, let alone better.
the cockpit part blowed up my mind, and I never felt so pissed off by the fact one of my childhood game is fucked up in the name of some kind of HD remaster shit.
