To be fair, the exhaust seems to get damaged for simply existing when hardcore damage is on. I've honestly given up on repairing it unless I have spare time.
@@tropicalfruit4571well it is exposed to gravel etc as it run under the car. And you rev it so high and on such load that even from the engine it could be damage. (Irl its always bright red glowing 😅 can’t be that good) and to top it, you are bottoming and scratching it on the ground. So my guess would be, yeah its swiss cheese on 20km special xD
"This is what happens when you use the worse components in a build" No Jimmer, this is what happens when you don't listen to the guy to your right who knows better than you 😂😂
"90 left 300 followed by 90 right 300, leads to roundabout, concrete cow - don't cut, 90 left 300, 90 right 300, discarded can of Red Bull - don't cut..."
keep the rally content coming Jimmy, I love this game and wheneever I get demotivated to play I watch your videos and it gives me a little push to log back in and have some fun, thanks Jimmy!
@@RSRacer woah sorry you feel that way bro! I love RBR but when I want something pretty to look at with a bigger community, EA WRC is a great alternative! See the positives bro :)
@@RSRacer hey man it's cool that you got your opinion, I got mine, I like this game, no one's forcing you to play it or to watch its content yeah? Go enjoy your game and I'll enjoy mine and no one's gotta be angry or aggressive let's keep this community happy and positive :)
On the last race, my car was so badly damaged that it almost disqualified me at the start line because it just wouldn't move, but I managed to Wizard it into some sort of roll just smashing revs and clutch. Its honestly such a painful experience with so little services, I fully underestimated every aspect. So just know you didn't suffer alone, I'm sure it was a reality for many 😂
Dirt rally 2.0, I did a monthly championship with a Lancia Fulvia and finished 10th. When the month was over and more people finished, I was pushed back to 76th. I've never been happier, and I've never done that well since.
I very much prefer stages with lots of corners. Long high speed stretches are just terrifying. I just know there's gonna be a tight corner at the end that I'm gonna misjudge. Or a kink in the long flat stretch that'll send me in a barrel roll.
In terms of realism this game is very challenging when you set the rallies to realistic and set track degredation to max.I race in a club where we run the whole rally championship likes this to reflect real life conditions its some of the most challenging racing ive done.I would highly suggest trying to make your own rally to see just how much the damage system can effect your runs!Loving the rally content!Keep it up Jimmy!!!
11:55 i wish there were a system who change things randomly in the stage, like rocks at different places, pothole and other car stop on the side of the road. Same for everyone, but you never know which version you get until in the stage. They added terrain deformation depending on the start order, thats a good start in this direction.😊
Service areas...those damn things. "I got a rally mood, let's do one stage in Dirt!" *breaks headlights in 15 seconds* "Radiator is ok everything is fine, service area is after this one anyway" *night stage enters the chat* "SUP BRO!" "Great..." *manages to make new personal record on darkness without lights* *repairs the car and totals it in a minute in broad daylight at the next stage*
I set up my The Car Lounge club to do a monthly WRC-like event with 100+ miles and 20+ stages. We're taking builders cars out for a marathon. I tried to replicate the Estonian rally from 2023. a bunch of the same stages, but none of the VERY long ones.
There was a service on stage 10 but since you quick fixed everything earlier, there probably wasn't much to repair 😅. Protip, quick fixes block future repairs in that event.
I’ve been playing this game since release and it’s absolutely awesome! Safari is pretty tough and bumpy and let’s not forget about unsuspected rocks around some of those hairpins!… Still love it!
Tried iracing for the first time yesterday in a Super Formula car, crashed a lot. Have like an hour of total sim experience. I've been subbed for years but I've been binging your videos all day lol, I was interested but now I'm hooked on sim racing.
Try the Super Formula Lite's first - they are awesome. Super Formula is difficult when just jumping in. I consider SF Lite superior to F2/F3 and SF itself superior racing to F1 because it is all about racing not fannying about with media glitz, fake drama, and perpetual histrionics. Do work your way though rookie formula and sports car before taking on the bigger beasts - you will love it.
@@am_sousa2246 I'm gonna start with the MX5 Cup cars lmao. Was able to run a few 1:30s at Catalunya through the gravel, should be able to get better fairly quick
Me playing rally games: I have just driven as fast as possible without crashing, surely this is a decent time. The leaderboard: *some guy is like a full minute faster than me* (for a short stage)
i hate to be the one to say it but this game has the graphical fidelity of far cry 2, which is almost a compliment as that game looks awesome for the time.
How about a rally game that releases a new set of stages each month and holds an online even in the first week of releasing the stages… that way the aliens wont be able to learn it until their noses bleed and actually give casual folk a chance?
W vid! More of rally please :) I know WRC is a bit forgiving, but idk if in reality that's such a bad thing. Just look at these events you've entered and how they went in that regard ahah. Certainly for me it seems like an ok level.
the road still looks like it's copy pasted over the rest of the terrain especially on the darker/night stages when theres also headlights involved. i think even they know they have a faulty product. after 5 months the game is currently at 60% off. i dont think i ever saw a game drop so fast in such a short time after release
"Rallying in a DIY bodged clunker against actual tryhards" vaguely reminds me of of some old story about a couple of guys who basically did just that in a car where they had to learn how to DIY the rollcage since it was too expensive to have one put it. Anyone know any details about that as well since I can't remember much more details about it that would help identify it.
I feel like hardcore damage is turned off for official wrc. You wouldn't have survived 2 stages without cooling otherwise. I know i have not. Also the otherday my left front steering broke, that is a weird feeling to drive. Ps, forget about repairing exhaust, use the time elsewhere needed.
After seeing a few vids of you on this game i got a discount from xbox to 20€, instantly copped it. Even though i’m on controller it’s great fun and feels controllable!
in my experience playing rallyes in VR makes it much easier. Everything looks slower (not because of my PC :P), because depth perception makes corners, elevations and jumps much easier to judge
I know this game was rushed out and had a rocky start for reviews, but I've been having a blast with it. The Codies have made fun rally games for years in and I'm glad they are still at it even if it's under the helm of EA. Hope the ones hit by the layoff are doing ok and best of luck to the rest of the crew working on the new F1 game and future WRC games!
you gotta do a video like this in something like an older group A or H3 class car, maybe in chile or mexico. both brutal rallies in their own right, and super fun to whip through!
Kenya is TOUGH on default tuning. I always drop my Slow Bumps to like -2/-3 and rebound to like -2, soft springs to match and I even raise the car by 10mm above center because the extra height helps going over all the uneven stuff. Way more drivable that way.
Entered the same event yesterday using the Hyundai i20, and I also hit a big tree on stage 5 and smoke coming out. Finished the rally anyways but with no turbo 😂
I'm surprised by the absolutely terrible particle system in this game. I'm driving along a dirty muddy road, and my car is as clean as at a car dealership. My windshield is clean. Remember how the car got dirty in the previous parts Dirt rally games and even in Colin Mc Rae. Are the developers crazy?
I made the mistake of putting the engine in the back in my wrc car. It's fine on gravel for the most part, but really falls apart in Monte Carlo and is not great on tarmac. It's so easy to lose it in corners on tarmac
Hey jimmy I dunno if it feels any better but I did the same thing and got myself a smoking car after 20km stage … all in all did a 79:06:217 … didn’t expect beating you … safari is tough
virtual rally safari looks almost just as brutal as the real thing...but hey, unlike real life, at least there weren't any zebras randomly cutting across the road!
when i did japan i had 1 tire an 3 rims for 5 stages when i finally got to the end my car was as slow as urs an smoking so bad i thought it was going to catch fire, finished in the top 200 was early in the month im probably well outta it now lmfao
A few weeks after this game came out I did a lap of this and finished 26th in the world... I have tried since and can't get anywhere near that time XD And yes this course is brutal. Oh wait just realised I was doing the whole course in one go
12:30 “heavy damage from what?!” _flashback to high-centering on a pile of jagged rocks 5 minutes ago_
To be fair, the exhaust seems to get damaged for simply existing when hardcore damage is on. I've honestly given up on repairing it unless I have spare time.
@@tropicalfruit4571same for me, it goes to heavy or critical damage almost every stage that is not asphalt
@@tropicalfruit4571well it is exposed to gravel etc as it run under the car. And you rev it so high and on such load that even from the engine it could be damage. (Irl its always bright red glowing 😅 can’t be that good) and to top it, you are bottoming and scratching it on the ground.

Just one?
Who goes on there phone while eating........and watching others play a game 😂
jimmy i personally command thee to do more of this type of rally videos. i love seeing the whole journey of a full rally event
There should be the ability to make slight repairs in between stages, not just at a service, like crews would do in real life.
I set up my The Car Lounge club to do a monthly WRC-like event with 100+ miles and 20+ stages. We're taking builders cars out for a marathon. I tried to replicate the Estonian rally from 2023. a bunch of the same stages, but none of the VERY long ones.
Just started playing EA WRC after dabbling with Dirt 2.0 and dirt 4. Definitely my favorite game in terms of car feel. Love your content!
"We are back in WRC" *EA WRC LOGO*. I immediately liked right after. Its a freaking EA WRC video...of course it is going to be amazing. ☺️
There was a service on stage 10 but since you quick fixed everything earlier, there probably wasn't much to repair 😅. Protip, quick fixes block future repairs in that event.

Any finish is a good finish in Kenya! GG little car!
Now I begin to wonder what would happen if Rally Buddha compels you to drive the rally again, in everyone's favourite rally car - the Hillman Avenger.
I'm patiently waiting for VR for this. It looks great.
Try UEVR, works great for me. Just make sure to follow a tutorial as some GFX settings need to be changed
