Unreal Engine 4 was a mistake

Worse graphics and performance for what, slightly longer tracks? Is that really a worthwhile tradeoff? I hope Codemasters realize their mistake and go back to their proprietary engine after this blunder

Nope. Probably the only thing that comes close is WRC 10.

If development time is down, why is the game still undercooked?

Because this was the most ambitious rally game to date, the sheer amount of features, and content meant they couldn't get it all done this year, so it was "undercooked".

Not sure why people are disagreeing with you here, poor reading comprehension and a mind clouded by irrational hatred for EA.

It was a very ambitious title and not everything was successful, the scope creep combined with the new (and questionable) engine choice lead to a product that lacks polish.

I agree,it wasn't quite ready to be released,but ea wanted it to be available for the holidays.Understandable but not from a consumers point of view.I'll wait it out and get it cheap with the addons that are sure to come,and only if it's running at 60fps solid with all graphic options actually enabled at high or ultra and 4k.Right now with my 5hrs playtime I'd give it a 6/10.

tbh i don't think UE alone was the issue.... I read that EA made Codemasters merge production of this and shared it with the terrible NFS devs at criterion... and seems now EA has sacked some of the Codemasters team as well just to add insult.

I think it's more like EA are forced codies to use unreal engine, because it's so easy to find specialists to work with it, so they can get people fired without regreats if they need to cut some budget or some else speculations. Do not believe me in word, but keep it in mind. This is not the first time they are doing this.

Damage your car in clubs, go back to the menu, exit the game and hop back into the same club to drive the next stage.

You'll find your car perfectly fixed without any service area.

I defended this title despite EA, mate. Calling every critique an 'irrational hatred for EA' is the path for the product to always be mediocre.

Dakar Desert Rally is on the same engine... same stuttering problems.

I just played WRC 9 for several hours then went to EA WRC and the performance and graphics are night and day at this time. WRC 9 is gorgeous. EA WRC is grainy and the details are gone. I have both games on Ultra setting.

I will say playing EA WRC tonight I didn't notice stutter. But I did see framerate issues.

UE4 was a mistake. Everything looks artificial , like painting. it's really sad. That's the bright future of next Gen graphics engines? VR is horrible, the interface is cluttered in several sub menus..... I expected more than this in 2024
