Is that it now? Abandoned and moved on to DiRT 5????

Was hoping for a little more content for my money and i bought all of the DLC. How can drift be taken out when it is the biggest growing motorsport at the moment. I like the game, but was really hoping drift would come in a dlc. Now with dirt 5 being released i guess we have no hope for that! When did codemasters stop listening to there fans?!? Been a long time fan of the Darlings at codemasters, but the company seems to be losing its way. Genuinely considering boycoting codemasters forcing us to buy dirt5 if we want to drift! Very disappointed!!!

Not to mention they added back the demo derby car but theres no event for it so its just sitting in your garage, teasing you.

It looks like their was supposed to be a 4th season of DLC but knowing codemasters, they did indeed abandon this project for another one.

All of Codemaster's games since xbox 360 days where like this. Hell, in the Original Grid for the 360 they were supposed to add in Ferraris but never did. Owners of the original 360 copy will attest that there is several acheivments tied to the never-put-in-the-game cars.

It's heartbreaking, was expecting so much from this game. That included as you say demo derby and drift. Doesn't make sense to take out game modes that broke up the out and out racing. Well at least we know for future. Was looking forward to Dirt 5, but 4 was a disappointment and now this.......no chance!

Yeah gave up on this and decided to go futuristic... a blast from my past, god this game is the fun I was looking for, for so long.

Dirt5 looks genuinely terrible. Not just visually (definitely no iterative leap - except backwards), but the entire aesthetic. Those primary colours. Oh. My. Gawd. It's grim. But very sneaky, Codies, finally giving us some exotic locations, but of course tied to such a dog's mess of a game. Funny how all we ended up with in DiRT Rally 2.0 was boring farmlands and forests.

We should have seen it coming tbh. Look at Grid 2019. Its full of broken promises and cut corners. Damage models are just reused and not actually worked on. Grid 2000s was a better game than this one by far.

remember when you could control the camera during a rewind so you could see your crash in different angles? Remember when you could rewind 5 seconds and choose ANY point in that 5 second interval to resume?

Codemasters doesnt know its fans and i cant blame them fully cause the codemaster fandom/community is terrible one. Even worse than the Sonic fandom.

Yeah i lost faith when the Darling brothers sold :'(

Who owns Codemasters? Obviously noone who likes to play games

GRID is based on the EGO engine, DiRT 5 is based on the Onrush engine. They are most likely developed by completely different teams, so if GRID is not going to get updates anymore, this is unlikely related to DiRT 5.

[Chairman Meow]

Yeah your right, Dirt rally 1 and 2 use EGO along with the grid games and ALL of the Dirt games except 5. I know the same team worked on all these games but unsure about DiRT5 as its the FIRST game of codemasters to use the Onrush engine.
