Lol my three year old begged me to download this...so I did and now he makes me play it so I can win him his races...I'm literally here because my three year old has muscled me into playing a game that stresses me out 🤣 but I'd be lying if I didn't say it was actually really fun!
Haha cute

@@marmitaa8619 I'm right because it's [insert current year]! Genius logic.
Turning off the copilot symbols is probably one of the best advices possible for a rally sim, learning to focus on what the copilot is actually saying rather than reading the symbols HUGELY improves the driving.
I did this for the first time a few days ago and it's really helped my driving
Finally placed in 16th after two days of 29th place and crashing the car 👍
Great tip about turning off the co-driver symbols, really helps to focus on the road. Danke :)
How do you turn off the code driver symbols I can't find it. please
Never really got into rally before i picked this game up for free from ps plus, but god damn it is hard.
Same here but I got it down after a couple of weeks lol
I bought it. I was disappointed because I could barely play. Then I watched tutorials and then it got easier.
Who is here bcs this game is free this month on ps plus
unReal_wResTLer yep, me
unReal_wResTLer 👋
Me too trying to learn this game am more used to track racing but I thought I try out the dirt series
@@lostrider99robledo55 same, shits hard af but sounds/graphics are top
unReal_wResTLer i want the Cr😣
Came from a tarmac sim. EVERYTHING IS TERRIFYING. I'm driving FWD and there's still so little grip!
I drove super slowly in my first couple of races, but the game tells me I'm almost half a minute ahead! Don't get discouraged if you're crashing all the time! Just be more fearful and learn some throttle control. Also for the love of god stick to FWD/AWD
Yeah honestly I was going too fast on first course and flew off the side of the fuckin hill lmao. Plus I love FWD cuz you can just let go of gas and let the wheels take you around wide corners and turns if you set up your speed right cuz braking sometimes is worse
Whats FWD/AWD?

Great tips, I love how this game plays with all the HUD options off. You mentioned that you should make a map in your mind of the road ahead, based on the co-pilots callouts, which is just such a great tip to help you out in the long run!
jesus , i love how you straight go into the subject unlike most dumbtubers wasting 90% of the time.
i subbed just for that! good shit mang!!!
I watched this about 2 months ago, been playing on and off. I followed your advice and turned off the hud. Like you said it was hard at first, but I GREATLY improved after I got used to it, which didn't take long. I'm stuck in Elite, but before that I couldn't even get top 20 in pro. That single piece of advice was huge
Great vid. Thanks for the upload.
Never considered the co-pilot hud being a visual distraction but it totally makes sense after you mention letting your ears take on the burden. Super-great tip.
Late, but just picked this up on steam sale. Playing it in VR, one of the best VR experiences I've had. I want Phil to be my dad.
I can vouch for the turning off co-pilot prompts on the HUD. It is harder at first but its one less thing your eyes have to process. The idea of cornering too early also seem like it would help, coming from Forza 7 to dirt 2. Great tip video rex keep it up!
Just downloaded this game today and, Its hard at least...but I will try to improve 😁
I got it today with ps4 it's bad ass I love it I just keep crashing I treat it like NASCAR kinda
I feel you hahah
Coming from dirt 3 this shit hard bro
It's difficult but very rewarding when you're carving thru turns.. it took me a good 9 hours to get a feel for the game.
Update: been playing on and off for about 2 weeks now, still shit at rally especially when using the faster cars lmao. Rallycross is easy for me though with the low tier cars.
Great tips dude. Thank you!!
Thanks for these tips!
watching this makes me realise the way i'm driving is just like if i was driving on a road. this is like youre going sideways on every corner even if its a 6
I love this game! Even tho i play on controller i enjoy it a lot. Its hard but thats why it is very fun
Niko Hiltunen try WRC8. Even harder with controller, but feels better when you master it. To me it seems that you just slide along every track non stop on dirt, but in WRC8 there’s more grip.
Loving the content!
I just got this game for my birthday so this will be fun to learn
i wish I had that set up... sick set up nice!
hey nice video. thank you for the tips. I just subscribed!
great video, a newbie like me learnt a lot from this. new subscriber over here 👍🏼
thank you, watching this video has really improved my skills. :)
Good advice.. thanks!
thanks for this man its a fun game i just need to get better
Showing the wheel and how you're moving it really helps. Close up on the pedals would also add value.
All great tips.
3:31 totally agree little fella, sometimes the co pilot gets it wrong and its better to break a tad if the corner is blind.
Very very nice!
Turning of the corner indicator and only relying on the co drivers pace notes. Sometimes I get my left and right mixed up so yeah
Apparently I’m in the top 2.7% on Gran Turismo. This game though, I’m terrible. It’s the hardest game I’ve ever played.
Gran turismo is arcade, nothing special about being top 2
@@kak8895 do you secure your glasses with tape?
You guys should try Richard Burns Rally with NGP6 mod. Best rally sim, and even your coffee machine can play it, since the graphics is from 2004.
After playing it a lot, Dirt Rally 2.0 felt arcade.
@@terenceflynn5125 nah, your mum does
@@kak8895 says the guy who plays The Crew 😂😂😂
I turned off the HUD while learning so I had no opportunity to get used to turn indicators
Good vid thanks
Thanks for the tips. and btw, what's the size of that TV?
Its very simple dirty rally 2.0 is for the hardcore players and the players that like more realism and competitive etc which I like, dirt on the other hand dirt 4-5 etc is sim with arcade to it which makes it more ‘fun’ to play, Rally is fun but more competitive. Pick and choose
this helped me a lot. what handbrake are you using? the hairpins slow me down a lot. i have the same wheel
Without a handbrake get a similar effect. Good for hair pins and more advanced left foot braking too. Got to car tuning on the selected vehicle set brake balance to 75% front. Twich the steering left a split second before you tap the brake and rear will slide to the right....on a loose surface. Save settings. Next game that car tuning will be what you saved.
helped a lot

Hello im thinking about buying a steeringwheel along with my vr and ive found one with a built-in shifter but it has only a brake and gas but no 3rd pedal which is the clutch. should i buy it or do i really need the clutch?. Can i change the brake pedal to a clutch pedal?
you dont need the clutch but its good to have one, most games have a settings that says "h shifter with clutch" or just "h shifter no clutch"
If there is many 6 turns with almost full speed, and then between them its "hairpin left", sometime it happens I go RIGHT :D ... and I d swear I heard "right"
Fantastic video. You actually have the same wheel as me. Can you please share your settings?! Including Thrustmaster profiler settings please.
Ingame every Force on 150, Softlock on, Profiler default. You can make it still stronger when editing some xml files.
whats your game setup? like the wheel and all, including the thing holding the tv, im new to DiRT but i wanna get into it big time
Listed Hardware you can see here: czcams.com/channels/D5pthOe_VNoWg1EiYNFNzg.htmlcommunity
For the TV, that is a dedicated TV-Stand for Sim-Racing: www.trakracer.com/product/trak-racer-single-monitor-floor-mounting-gaming-event-stand-holds-22-35-led-lcd-tv-monitors/
It has very beefy side stands, which gives you the confidence to hang a heavy TV onto it and still move it around the room (for actually watching movies n stuff) Though be prepared, with a big TV the whole thing approaches 30+ kg in weight.
I also turned down the engine volume so I could hear the calls clearly.
If your playing on a wheel go into freeplay and try ti drift a steady circle, if you can't do it. Lower your ffb settings and practice until you can. You'll see how the ffb can actually mess you up if you arent used to it. I keep mine lower now on games like this that require alot of steering input
Care to share what settings you have ended up with?
@@craigalexp i left the soft lock alone and moved everything else down in increments of 10 until it felt good for me. Next time im free to play ill post the settings i have rn
@SkyRex - What monitor are you using? That looks like the perfect size and layout! Also, what are your view settings?
It's in the channel description. A 55" Curved TV, 4K, 60Hz . What do you mean with View Settings?
@@skyrex2465 Nothing, I figured it out. Thanks!
Got this game last night.. Oh how absolutely useless I was at it... Been playing Forza for too long. Always said in real life Rally drivers are the GOAT's of driving. Thought I'd broken my wheel at one point last night. 😂
My mind i now literally blow out, when i realized that you sound like Niki Louda :D
Great vid man! i have a stupid problem, i cannot find the setting for the AI difficulty in the menus...can anyone help me pls?
Select any championship, then go to championship options. Triangle on PlayStation or Y on Xbox, then go to difficulty setting from there you will be able to change your AI performance (aka the difficulty of the AI) hope this helps.
@@Kiril-zk3lq thanks bro
i know its 2021 now buy i love rally, i couldnt getr it when it was new, health issues, ill buy it soon
Hope now everything is good☺️
not relying 100% on the co pilot is important... I wish I could map the calls myself. *that would be a super cool feature.*
scout the track and edit the road book.
also I love the german female voice... Geilhausen FTW
gruß aus Deutschland :-P
true true
like belive just 98% of it
there some error for me in Wales
because when i hit restart and try to listen it again, i crashed on the same exact spot
Is it okay to use both feet? Like left foot for brake and right for gas? I thought that was a mistake but since u are doing it as a pro.. I'm curious
For road safety it's a mistake, that's why no driving school teaches it. Cause it is easy to mess up the pedals and/or stall the engine. But in performance driving it is common practice, to shift the cars weight around, while still accelerating. Not only in Rally, look for any motorsport series onboard videos, like GT3, it's called "left foot braking"
@@skyrex2465 so not only in e sports, but also in real rallying and racing, drivers are doing it? Man I never knew
Burak Coutinho check out rally footcams on CZcams, they’re mind blowing
yeah, that's common practice as it's much faster to tap the brake and immediately accelerate without having to move your foot back and forth. when i'm playing, my left foot normally sits on the brake, only moving when i need to engage the clutch. there's also pressing all three pedals to keep the revs up (and keeping turbo going) while braking into a corner and then having all the power available for the corner exit.
Tip 1 and only : Dont start learning on a fast RWD :D
Shit im doing that
I just got Dirt 2.0 a week ago and bought the same setup that you have. While I was waiting for the Thrustmaster gear to arrive I played the game with a controller and did ok. As soon as the wheel arrived everything became a lot harder! I cannot even to handbrake turns now with the wheel setup, and I'm finishing last on every stage. I just need more practice but it feels like starting as a complete noob again.
You kiinda just have to relearn everyting, I took me about 3 weeks. Now Im 15-20% faster than I was ever on pad.
@@rejiix Yes, I'm getting there slowly! Decided to go back to H1 and use the DS. A slower class is helping me learn the wheel and I can even swing it around hairpins now.
@@MLB9000 Hi mate, that's great! I would highly suggest learning the FIAT 131 ABARTH next, as it is a low-horsepower RWD that taught me the basics of RWD rallying (now I can handle the Gr.B RWDs and RGTs (except the Camaro, that thing is a beast) just fine ;)
PRO tip: copy your setups from a CZcams channel "GTR Technical"
@@rejiix Tried the 131 but hated it! Switched over to the Stratos. It does not forgive mistakes, but I am really working that wheel now lol!
on ps4 you can increase the vibration level on the controller. it really helps for them front wheels.
Great tip play rally cars on nurburg5 the big one
Ist das ein Subaru-Sticker oder ein spezielles Lenkrad??? Und könntest Du deine FFB-Settings posten; ich bring einfach keine gescheite Einstellung hin.Danke im Voraus!
FFB: Alles auf 150, statt 100. Codemasters arbeitet aber wohl auch an einem Patch für mehr Feeling.
Lenkrad: 599GT Ferrari Rim (T300RS Base), mit einer Custom Subaru Badge von tmclogos.com
Do you have any wheel settings recommended to use? Thanks
Look in the channel page community section, I put all my wheel and FFB settings there
Turned everything to japanese to learn japanese and the game at the same time
No, if u wanna learn Jap u need to learn the kanas
In rergards to removing the pacenote icons. I would go even further and recommend removing virtually everything except the speed/rpm guage and the maybe the timer. Seeing diffs and the leading cars progress in comparison to your own are pure distractions.
Agreed. Having the timer on when doing hotlaps or practicing a new run helps to figure out where you might be losing time, but when actually racing or trying to learn the car it's distracting and usually causes me to push more than I am capable of at the time.
i did it all the time
but its so annoying when you then playing WRX and you forgot to turning it back on
if only like in F1 that you can communicate with spotet then it would be just fine
@@rotua98 Yeah, I was more speaking specifically for the Rally portion of the game. WRX is it's own beast. :) (A lovely beast at that!)
I play on controller and always crash a little in every single stage
Don't mind me going back to the safety of Assetto Corsa Competizione
nice
Ich feier dich einfach. Kuss
What are your ffb settings?
I mean to be honest for some reason I was awful at dirt 4 (with sim physics and almost assists) and couldn't drive at all,but in 2.0 with no assists I'm not having any problems XD
I seriously don't understand this x'D
Hmmm. I need something more basic than this. I mean, I’m really bad. Why is the car so damn slow and I can’t get it round corners haha
you have to be able to carry speed to flow round each corner. Unfortunetaly for that you really need to know the track well in order to minimise losing speed from risk of crashing.
The car you start with is front wheel drive so you have to get the rear of the car to swing before gassing out of corners
got this game. idk if i wanna play it cuz of the fwd cars u start with. imo they're pure hell in corners
(Dont take my words for a pros please)
Ye, they're a pain. My first event was Argentina, hairpin after hairpin, rocks and drops either side. R5 is my favourite, but you don't quite get enough money for a car from the first championship. Might do R2 or Goup A i guess
@Clutch X Hawk ill try to not rage-quit while doing it lol
@@ionicabanea6025 bro check out dirt official yt account.. they got tip videos there..
But basically just use handbrake for hairpins always
Maybe take a look at my FWD Guide, they are the most predictable to drive (but also most boring)
@@skyrex2465 whenever ill play again I'll watch them no worries
I know this is a stupid question, but how do I actually get the session to start in the first place? Whenever I try to even start the countdown to begin doesn't start. What the hell is happening?
Hold the handbrake button and rev the engine and the countdown will start.
I start driving to the co pilot not the road. Anyone know what I mean?
To driving what the copilot says not what you see on the road
@@emidex8721 Yes exactly. I end up crashing
19822andy practice
You can adjust the timing of when the navigator/co pilot speaks, earlier or later in the game settings.
i have my notes on so that if i crash i can see what he just said if i missed it
Does this game has a instruction things about the turns that showed up on the screen like dirt 4?
Yes it does Pal!
How do you turn the copilot symbols off I can't seem to find this menu
Its along the remove hud options :)
I thought that the co pilot was speaking gibberish or another language when I play
hahah same i was so focused on the road i was like what the fuck are u saying ahaha
Do most people play manual?
Pooyan 1920 yes, it’s just easier driving manual
Anyone else trying to learn this on a gamepad? I'm using a Steam Controller and it's really hard so far.
trying to learn with a steam controller as well and it is frustrating to lose control and not know exactly when it started because the input is not very fine. it tends to feel like im barely touching the steering/gas or the opposite where im oversteering/hitting the gas way too hard although with the lower powered engines and fwd cars its not as punishing
@@theyordle27 You could try setting saturation on steering, throttle and brakes up to 100 to start off with. Also adjust steering sensitivity around 90 and linearity 5 to 6. Try this if you haven't already, seems to work well for me, then you can always adjust further to tune it to how you like. Also try a bit of dead zone on steering and brake as can be sensitive even resting on trigger. Hope this helps.
Ryan thanks! I’ll try when I get home
@@AcornFox Your welcome, hope you get it sorted.
@@ryansta this. I went from almost always totaling my Lancia Fulvia each event to consistently challange for the lead at PRO difficulty in Sweden and Greece with the Subaru 2001 basically just from learning what the parameters are doing, in a few days. Also I find that increasing or decreasing linearity based on what car you drive really makes a difference. I drove with 4-5 in the R2 FWD class but for 2000cc I've gone as high as 8 to get the right balance that matches the "weight-shifting" and make it feel natural. Also set the deadzone lower, mine's at 10.
Just started and keep getting 50 second drift penalties😑 no tutorial or anything I don’t know what I’m doing wrong
Maybe you are jumping the start? Release the handbrake only on the Green lights, not earlier
Drift penalties during the race, Ive been getting better though practiced all last night

What wheel settings you use?
I put them in the community section: czcams.com/channels/D5pthOe_VNoWg1EiYNFNzg.htmlcommunity
So racing lines aren't rally a factor here?
It still is! But its more for positioning your self for the next corner as you slide into it from a straight, dancing through a series of turns, or making sure you land correctly if there's a jump mid turn, or a turn after a jump. This is for getting the fastest time btw. If you're starting out like me, its best to make sure you have a clean run than aiming for the fastest time.
@@chrissorreda4982 Agreed. I noticed when turning, I have to go really slow in order to not drive off the path.
Not really. Position yourself for the next corner, not for speed
@@RobGcraft Okay so turned before the actual turn.
Lieutenant Tragic_501 depends on the conditions in a rally. In slippery conditions, then of course turn before a turn. In non slippery conditions, it’s different.
It’s driver preference, and road conditions

yup fucking ego killer this game. Going back to ACC
Iv'e been playing asseto corsa, project cars for a while and have been doing great, i played Dirt rally 2 and legit thought my wheel was broke, its like driving on ice with mc donalds trays underneath the rear wheels, im fine on tarmac but everything else is feels like the games gods are legit trolling me, i gave up and went back to AC but want to give it another go at some point, never ever in my life played a game i found so hard.
This is the first racing game that has really made me want to buy a racing wheel. Those who have one, is it worth it? I keep reading about issues with the force feedback in this game. How common is this issue?
Hi i can say that there can't be no problem with the force feedback on the racing wheels because of that how are you driving 🤔🤨😁
And i am saying that because i have a wheel and can't feel that problem

@@user-nl9ds7cm4b
I was just saying within the dirt rally 2 community there are a lot of complaints regarding the wheel. What kind of wheel do you have?
is it normal to use left foot for the brake ? :P
In a sequential car yes, your left foot is free anyway. Even in an H-shifted car pro drivers use Left-Foot-braking to nudge the car into a corner, while still standing on the gas, but I just rarely left-brake in a H-shifter, need to train that a little more.
This is the only way I drive my manual transmission, but if you need to brake while shifting then it's the ole heel-toe method.
it looks like you have no force feedback
The game has no force feedback for me, I use T300 on PS4
You should select the steering wheel at the controller settings.
Probably the dual shock controller is still the primary
I put my FFB setting into the channel discussion tab. Basically most on 150, also using a T300

Great video! How is this game with a controller? Is it any point playing or should I buy a wheel? 😄
Controller support is great and you will easily run into your skillcap before feeling limited by your control method. Don't expect to compete in the top online percentile unless you are some kind of wizard but being consistently in the top 5% is absolutely possible with a controller.
it's definitely playable but some cars are practically unplayable with a controller: the ford mk2 needs very subtle steering for example, which is hard to do with a controller
It's pretty easy with controller. It's not too sim-like for controller. Just stick with the awd cars. It'll be hard to get good times on the leaderboards though
I swear the co pilot messes up in poland 1l after bale but its 1R happend 2 times now and in replay he does say 1r very strange
@Asif Ifas upside donw red counters is not a bug they do it so u can look at 1 point spedometer rev meter and see both at the same time because standard rev meter goed to the right out view newer english rev counters go left instead of going right the old lotus f1 rev meter is turned aswel Not manny cars have it but some do
Yeah rotating the rev counter is normal in race cars, it's pretty common to turn it so that the redline is at 12 o'clock (or in a position where the driver can see it most clearly) so you can see when you're at the top of the gear more easily in the edge of your vision
Im finding the co driver is wrong with he's pace notes most of the time. Some 5- are 3+ and some 2+ are 4+ and some 4- are 2- you may get a 6flat+ that is a 4+ or 5-. I with there was two english drivers like in dirt 4.
This shit has pissed me off to no end!
is that not just down to the car as well? some of the messages say 5, 6, when youre in a car that has only 4 or 5 gears. i gues sits on you to know how your car is different?
I think there’s more nuance to consider here because the nature of instructions is based on a number of variables e.g. 5 right 80, caution 3 left tightens into 2 don’t cut, 4 right long keep right over crest into immediate 4 left...You can’t base your speed on the corner number. 6 doesn’t always mean full throttle, it all depends on the next series of corners and/or the road surface and your car. AWD is going to be much more forgiving.
Wait do I have to have a wheel?
I 2 I use a controller on ps4 if that helps

No you don't have to. You can use a controller if you want.

Pick a low powered car. Brake for the corners! Most people use too much full throttle. Then put driver assist setting on hi. In game settings. You will improve fast in time trials. Short tracks find like new Zealand or Argentina 3 or 4 minute tracks do them repeatedly to remember the road.
