Looks good, feels horrible.
Game looks amazing, yet the controls are absolute trash. The smallest left/right instantly send your driving into a full 360. Feels like im driving on ice. Almost every turn for every vehicle you must fully stop to be able to make a turn without spinning out by barely turning. probably won't return to the game unless improvements are made to the controls.

Welcome to the nightmare... Seriously the best thing you can do is uninstall the nightmare and save space on your hard drive, this game is a scam, follow the discussion threads to find out.

All the best.

Yeah, the handling and physics are extremely arcade. Shame because it does look very nice. Glad I got to try it for free to save my money.

The only way to get this one playable is with a steering wheel, with or without the real one, and that's if you can handle the oversteers.

I used monect for virtual steering wheel with a phone, but it's not feeling great at all, no, not about the lacking control than a steering wheel, but this game isn't as good as dirt ones.

I wouldn't say it's bad but it could been better

I actually got along just fine with an Xbox Controller and ended up having a blast. The steering just takes some getting used to is all. I consider it a big part of the challenge, second only to trying to navigate such treacherous environments at high speeds with nothing but the help of your co-driver's instructions.

Well, I wouldn't even say it looks good actually... Got the game for free on EGS, played it for about 45 minutes, marveling at how crappy everything was and then it crashed on me, ending my torment. Uninstalled it right away. Can I get a refund for my time? 😁
