Tedious, dull, & unforgiving, to a casual gamer. You can turn down the difficulty level - mainly meaning reducing the effect of damage on your car - and also enable various assists (e.g. for steering, braking, etc), but alas those ultimately all combine into one of only two outcomes: pointlessly easy because the game's basically playing itself for you, or too difficult.In particular, even on the middle 'difficulty' (damage-sensitivity) setting, the default, the cars have the structural integrity of wet egg cartons. Multiple times I've just nudged a length of plastic netting and had the transmission fail entirely, or the steering knocked so far out of alignment the car starts doing donuts by itself. It's utterly ridiculous. Real cars are *way* tougher than this game supposes.There's also no impression of speed. The little speedometre in the corner might say things like "123 km/h", but to look at the screen itself, it feels like you're barely moving. Which compounds the frustration at the terrible handling and vehicle toughness.Also, the game gives you a non-optional navigator which repetitively spouts gibberish nominally to inform you about upcoming turns, but more often than not by the time it comments about a turn, you're already in it - or done with it entirely - and in some races, inexplicably, there's no navigation at all. Seemingly a straight out, intermittent bug.Note that while there are tutorials that are supposed to explain the nomenclature & conventions of the navigator, they don't actually explain anything at all - they just put you on test courses and have you drive them as repeatedly and tiresomely as the normal races. Baffling.There are many other bugs & design flaws… too many to cover in full here. One last one of particular note, though: the menu systems throughout are incomprehensible in their navigation structure - 'back' will more often than not take you to the very main screen, not actually back or up one menu, requiring tedious drilling back down as many as six levels to get to where you were. Compounding that further is that when you do land on many of the menus, the game frequently throws up error dialogs seemingly all relating to being unable to contact some online service it wants - seemingly one that's been shut down at this point. Which evidently isn't necessary to the actual game, yet it really wants to hassle you about it all the time regardless. Sigh.Love the gane. This was the Christmas gift for the kidsI wait before the update to support xbox one wheels, and glad they could finally provide support for x1 wheels !I need to restart my career 3 times before being able to use my personal settings (manual shift + difficulty) as when you start with the rally school it reset it to what fits the best to your score and you have after no way to change it.I would definitely advise to any wheel holder to spend some time to adjust the wheel dead zone and sensitivity to fora level that fits your hardware and driving style.... once all is donethe game is pretty fun when played with manual shifting.... the engine sound when using automatic is very horriblewaiting for a better rally game, this is a good backup option and probably the only one on x1 right now for rallyI love this game! I get mad because it’s little too hard when you try it in the hardest mode and that’s how I play it, but it’s amazing, even after that many years it was released! The sound of the car it’s kind of weird tho , it’s like a farting car , but aniway... love this gamea fun game / took me over two weeks to get the hang of the driving / very realistic / it helps if you are over the age of 30 , reason is , they are the only ones who have the experience of driving in all conditions. the secret to playing this game is to set up your cars as if it were your own vehicle.The AI are either too easy or too difficult for me. If I have it set on hard, I can crash into a tree or run completely off track and I can still get first. If I have it set on expert, I can make 0 mistakes and have a very good run and end up 9 seconds behind first place. The only time I ever got into an online game was at 3-4 am eastern time with some Australian and then 7 stages later we got one more guy. The Australian left 2 stages after and the other left shortly after.We thought this was going to be fun for us, but it's really not. We were incredibly disappointed that it's not split screen 2 player...it's ghost 2 player. This one is collecting dust and we found a better alternative for our preferences :/ Graphics are great and it has lots of options, though, so if you like racing and don't care about not being able to play split screen with your friends, go for itTo echo the other reviews, there is no steering wheel support for this version. I specifically bought it for the PS3 because I own a G27 wheel and refuse to purchase a new G29 wheel to function with my PS4 (yes, I have an almost brand new system that is basically a blueray player because I can not use my steering wheel).The options have changed and there are no rewinds apparently, which I like (mostly). FINALLY the co-driver is different. However, the gameplay can not be commented on, because I can not play the dang thing. No point when I can't use the steering wheel with a DRIVING game.Terrible decisions and support from both the developer as well as Sony (and Xbox apparently as well).It will go back, and my weekend is just that much less fun now. Writing bad reviews suck, but I feel it necessary to inform anyone in my situation of the horror that awaits you if you buy this game expecting it to be playable with a steering wheel that was specifically made for gaming systems.P.S. Not even changing the buttons will you be able to add the accelerator or brake pedals to the interface... Sooooooooo lame!!!!es un juego demasiado monótono, pero tiene buenos gráficos, no se comparan contra un Forza pero es aceptable, ademas era el que me hacia falta en mi colección.My first WRC game. Very realistic and not like the Forza Horizon series at all. If you enjoy something closer to reality, like an Assetto Corsa, this is for you.Excelente juego para los amantes del automovilismo. Lo recomiendo para cualquier persona de cualquier edad. Esperemos que sigan sacando juegos asi.Excelente juego. llego un día antes de la fecha programada. Mis expectativas no eran tan altas, pero el nivel de gráficos es Excelente.Awesome rally game 3.5/5 just a bit of screen tearing but very good gameArrived before due dateRecommend seller
