Now that the dust has settled...

...and WRC Generations has established it self as the superior modern WRC title in terms of:
- features
- graphics
- optimization
- rally stage design

and MOST importantly => MOD SUPPORT, which allows for complete OVERHAUL of the PHYSICS, why isn't the rally sim community invested it's time in it along with RBR?

I got the throttle pedal issue with that game, but when I didn't have a steering wheel about a year, year and a half ago I used to play Generations really a lot and I loved it. My control method at the time didn't have the problem with the throttle bug and I really liked that game.

I've played Generations with my wheel too but the pedal thing is really bothering me so I switched over to other games but honestly I play all kinds of racing games, including different WRC/Rally games like RBR (Czech plugin) and WRC 10 which works fine but honestly only 2 games have these modern cars and one of them isn't working properly so I kind of stick with EA WRC and like it a lot, kind of like Dirt 2.0 but its tracks I find a little bit inferior compared to this game.

RBR is old, like really old and I don't mind it. It's not about the graphics for me or the gameplay but because I've played it on and off since it almost came out I have plenty of time in it and I love it...

Like...

The point is a bit like. There almost is no need to sick with one game alone, especially if there are more games avaialble, so it's pretty cool to be able to switch out between them but honestly yeah... I do not always like these WRC games because of some aspects found or not found within like for example.

Lack of wheelspin. For some reason a lot of these modern games lack really enjoyable sliding and drifting physics or even lack of wheelspin when you go through a corner where when I watch some videos of real world rally, that seems to be all that they are doing, slipping and sliding around now.

I understand modern cars with their modern tires and modern engineering and modern technology might not have wheelspin and may not slide around that much because of these reason of new things that the games simulate or portray but when in like EA WRC or WRC 10, Dirt 2.0 I drive in a 80's GroupB car, I kind of expect that the cars would slide more but again the fact that they don't may have to do with the fact that it's 4x4 cars that I drive and they don't necessarily slide a lot, like in Dirt 2.0 when I drive that awesome Porsche found in game, that one slides a lot and I love to drive and control it but in EA WRC when I drive rear wheel drive cars they don't slide so much so... That's one aspect I don't necessarily like a lot but at the same time I think it's a pretty nice game.

There is already a simple mod that fixes that issue completely.

The physics mod gives this exact feeling. The cars can slide and drift even on tarmac now.

You should look it up and give the game another chance with these.

I completely missed the mod support for WRC Generations, where is a place to get it all, information and mod? Unfortunately there is no forum about the game the Dev's never had one.

I use the Reddit -> https://www.reddit.com/r/WRCTheGame/
Those are also discussed on the General Discussions board of the game here in Steam.
But Reddit is the best place I feel. Both mods are pinned on the top.

Cool opinion but I've been playing the same stage in Japan for over 600hrs now in EA WRC and the handling is so dynamic, granular and detailed there is probably another 9000 hours of this to go for me

I just cannot grasp how the maps in EAs are so bad and lifess. Its incredible.

WRC Generations stages are overdone caricatures with weird road layouts and constant spam of junctions and random crap to keep things "interesting". EA WRC stages are real roads that make sense in the world they are in.

Nice that people have choice, but I know which ones I'll be picking everyday of the week. And it sure ain't Generations.

[MacMAcMAc]

I think now ones talking about layouts here...road layouts can be amazing (and from IRL wich is very cool) and still be just a void of road. im talking about light, atmosphere and so on.
In 2024 with that money and with that graphics (that are not that good to be fair) theres no escuse to have such maps that looks like its made by an autogenerate tool. RBR is a PS2 game and have some maps with more life than this.

Dirt rally 2.0 entering in the thread

Like a wolf hunting it's prey, promote another trash wrc game within the one that is failing miserably. The audio is pathetic and the pedal issue was never fixed in generations, it was a cheap way to simulate the hybrid and it sucked. The locations and stages were great, the campaign had lots of filler in it and I wish it was more straight to the point considering you'll be playing multiple seasons. DR 1&2 still have my vote and RBR of course.

WRC 10 which works fine

Interesting, the throttle is very similar in both WRC10, and WRCG. In fact, there is no meaningful difference.

I've always said that the throttle in WRCG leaves a lot to be desired, however, much of the "problem" was in people's head.

There's no doubt that the WRCG stages are too intense for some people, it's better they stick with the tame stages in EA WRC.

I do agree, it's nice to have choices.

All four major rally games have different massive flaws.
