  • Do you need help with certain aspects of EA SPORTS WRC? Ask us a question in the comments and we’ll try to assist or address in a future video!
    With EA SPORTS WRC being, in our opinion, the best rally game of the past decade, we’re on the hype train. But, sometimes, not everything is as straightforward as it seems - especially if you’re relatively new to rallying as a sport or Codemasters’ take on it.
    In what will be a two-part tricks and tips guide video. Here, we look at (PC) graphics set up, (steering wheel) force feedback settings and some driving techniques. We touch upon the AI levels, button mapping, Scandi flicks and handbrake turns
    Part 2 will touch upon tyre strategies and career advice, and we’ll have a separate video to cover the co-driver in more detail, so subscribe to watch first!

    Some tip I didn't see, but helped me a lot in DR2: Turn off your OSD/HUD. Almost entirely. You cann keep the speedometer if you want to, everything else HAS TO GO. You don't want to stress yourself with how much you're behind, or how much more is left from a stage. Also, learn to pay attention to what your co-driver SAYS instead of the sings, which just distract you.

    Great tips. I've been playing the DIRT Rally games for a while and everything in here sticks. I DO want to mention one small thing: Co-Driver calls being set to "earliest" can be confusing for new players, and sometimes even veterans because the calls are SO early they can be misleading (if the person isn't keeping track of which turn they just hit). The earliest setting can sometimes get 1-3 turns ahead of the car position. I humbly suggest new players stick with "normal" on co-driver call-out timing.

    As I had the money for a wheel but not a shifter or handbrake...I use the clutch pedal as my handbrake for the time being....it actually works pretty good and after a bit of an adjustment period....it has become muscle memory.
    I only had the chance to play a couple of stages as I messed my back up...but what I did play was a lot of fun.
    My tip for new drivers is that driving a bit cautiously and consistently finishing stages will yield you a better result then a full send on every stage and ending up in the trees half the time. Once you practice enough and get the hang of your cars handling you can start pushing more...but remember....you are always 1 mistake from a potentially rally ending crash if you play with hardcore damage... (which i absolutely recommend).

    • @somecallmetim42
      @somecallmetim42 Před 6 měsíci +1

      In the front and rear wheel drive cars you'll be wanting to use left foot braking so having the handbrake on the clutch pedal is not such a good idea. You'll be far better off using a button on the wheel until you get a proper handbrake. If you've got a joystick kicking around you can always use that as a handbrake.

    • @snakebite6x6x6
      @snakebite6x6x6 Před 6 měsíci

      @@somecallmetim42 Honestly it hasn't been an issue for me thus far. I keep my left foot over the brake pedal and just kick my heel over to hit the handbrake when I need it....mostly for the FWD cars. With the RWD and 4WD cars I can usually get the car around most corners without using the handbrake at all.
      The joystick advice is solid though, I might have an old flight stick kicking around here somewhere...I'll have to give it a look....and then figure out how to attach it to my racing cockpit.

    I know not everyone sees eye to eye on this. But I personally think that for a rally game, specifically, assists may allow people to develop bad habits that may be hard to overcome once they decide to drop the assists.
    For examples some techniques may not work out well if you have full ABS and traction control on. Which could lead to a different kind of frustration when attempting to learn some of the rally techniques.
    Ultimately as long as your having fun that's what counts though! :)

  • @michaelmonstar4276
    @michaelmonstar4276 Před 2 měsíci +1

    For the graphics versus performance: Still, to this day, things like shadows and reflections will demand most from your system. Anti-aliasing, if it's super-sampling (which I believe just multiplies rendering the image, basically upscaling the pixels), then yes it can be quite heavy, but other types of AA won't impact performance that much these days. - It's best to look at settings like shadows, shading, blending, reflecting, which is stuff even strong GPUs can still struggle with. - So that means you can mix and match for a quality and performance balance. - Also resolution is critical, as the more pixels it will need to render, the more performance will get bogged down. So if there's an option to use a lower resolution or a scaler, you can reduce that to a point that it still looks good but "waters down" the pixel-count so it's not as taxing. Even turning down a scaler to anywhere between 90% down to 75% will improve it a lot while still looking good. - Of course techniques like DLSS and FSR help mitigate quality-loss where possible.
    That said, Unreal Engine is a beast in its own right, in a bad way. If Codemasters was still on EGO, I could pretty much guarantee it's very optimized, which this studio has been one of the best in. But, while it might have improved (which I don't know), this game had technical issues from the start due to their switch to UE, so it's a bit of a different story now. - All I know is that UE has always just been a drag on systems, probably even worse with 4 and 5.
    Oh, and in the end, try to get it so that it "locks" to around a certain framerate and it doesn't fluctuate wildly, which is worse than just having a framerate that is on the lower side, as it throws off the consistency of the feel. And I'm talking about fluctuations of say over 10-20 fps, at least when we're speaking of 60fps or lower. The higher the average is, the less you're going to notice fluctuations (as long as it doesn't stutter or drops down significantly of course), so you want consistency.

    I think for a lot of people FWD cars are difficult to understand how to drive it proper. As in general a lot of people drive RWD cars in other games like GT3 or F1. FWD is a complete different approach, as a lot of times you need to combine throttle and brake at the same time, keep throttle through a corner in a lot of cases, and if you oversteer or loose the back you keep the throttle to catch it (with RWD you need to go off throttle). So for a lot of people it’s a brainfreeze if they are very used to RWD and try FWD in racing conditions.

      Also, on gravel, you need to put the break bias really far back to lock the rears and throw the car into the corners hard... and on tarmac you need to be very aggressive cause of the understeer and make your setup all about oversteer along with a good low grounded ride height... people need to not be afraid in FWD cars... FWD is more about you abusing the car while RWD is more about the car abusing you... lol
      4WD is a whole different story... horrible on tarmac because of the massive understeer (even more than FWD) but amasing on Gravel because you can really use the 4-wheel power to throw it hard in every corner and push the pedal to the metal as you get out of them without losing your direction...

Rally Safari is a constant fight against the brutal road surface... the snow around the Swedish roads is so unforgiving... Rally Acropolis? Just good luck... more hairpins than turns, rough gravel, no space for a single mistake... Finland? You better not push even 1% harder than you can handle cause one crash means that "you have chosen... DEATH"...
      People complain this game is easy... not even fucking close... cars are very realistic and controllable like real rally cars... but the stages, especially with the degradation are incredibly challenging... the most insane stages ever created... no other rally sim even comes close on that aspect...

    For tire friction I recommend setting it as high as comfortably possible and turning down steering damper as as low as comfortably possible. As when the tires are off the road there should be minimal force in the wheel. All the forces and damper effect should come from the tire and suspension geometry simulation.

    Starting out I always gotta use manual shifting no matter what cause their are times you will want to stay in a gear a lot longer then automatic will do in a hairpin and with automatic it will gear up way sooner then you will want it to. But I’m using a controller and using the same controller setup I’m using on the F1 game since it’s made by the same people. But I did turn off ABS steering assist and throttle assist. If you play it starting off with every assist off you will figure out the throttle control way better and figure out when the rear is about to snap and how to keep it on the roads. I do like how narrow the roads are it’s insane.

    Here's 3 tips from me.
    1 - Turn mirror reflections off and turn car reflections to ultra low. This will give you 40-50fps alone.
    2 - If your using a 4WD car then turn off traction control. This will make you faster mid corner and upon corner exit.
    3 - if your new to rally start off with a mini or the WRC junior category to start with and when your comfortable try another car that has 270-300 horse power, this will help you build up to the 500bhp WRC 1 cars while getting use to the stages. Avoid the group B Audi until you have more experience and you are comfortable with rally stages as this car is an absolute monster.

    Really enjoying this game so far. I like the fact that the game is still hard but in a different way.
    In DR2, you can have a race ending crash in the most pathetic way possible at about 30mph, because the difficulty came from getting the car from A to B in my opinion.
    In EAWRC, I think the driving is slightly easier, but it's still very tough driving on the limit and that's where the challenge comes from here. It's trying to save a second here and a few tenths there.
    I'd compare it with the F1 games in that it's not horrendously difficult to drive the cars but it's quite hard to drive them as fast as possible. I think Codies have gone in a great direction with this game.

      In EA WRC the challenge is the stages... the terrain... which is REALISTIC... rally cars are some of the most controllable cars in the world... however the terrain on which they race is brutal, just like in the game... Safari Rally is so rough in the game... Finland is a car killer... Chile is even worse, speeding downhill at 180kph and seeing a tight turn at the end... Swedish snow is so unforgiving and Norwegian Scandia stages are even more brutal... Rally Acropolis? don't even bother... it's so tight and brutal that you literally have ZERO room outside the tiny tight road...
      This game is a masterpiece... they really captured rallying... good, stable cars on insanely brutal roads, fighting to survive if you want to push at the limit...

    For those who don't got an option for DLSS under Upscale in the basic graphics settings you can use AMD's fidelity upscaler instead, the reason it don't show up is because DLSS is like it says on the side: only for compatible nvidia gpu's, for those wondering thats the rtx cards, the gtx cards don't support DLSS because of something something chipset tech AI tech something, if your card dont say RTX u can't use DLSS. also note that DLSS works best on the RTX 40-series gpu's, but all RTX cards support DLSS one way or another.

      ​​@@AmbientMikenah I wouldn't say just as fine...for example ride height and stiffer suspension and dampers provide a big handling difference on flat stages and surfaces like tarmac.

    Still the best tip (at least one that helped me the most) is to buy a cheap old joystick if you don't have a proper handbrake.
    Works perfectly and using an axis instead of button is 100 times better, as you can modulate the handbrake and not just immediately lock up the wheels and spin out

    Earliest co-driver calls are not early enough, and camera angle and position should be adjustable in all camera views and be adjusted a lot more to accommodate for less optimal monitor positions. Imagine the bonnet view but angled up a bit so the road is more straight ahead, and then moving the seat either to the left or right depending on your preferences.

    Please provide career tips. Managing the schedule (team rest, event priorities, upgrade priorities, etc.). One thing I noticed is that events that have more than 2 stages between seevice areas or that have stages with long route lengths will wear down tires considerably. I ran 3 long stages between a rest with soft gravel tires and the 3rd stage was disastrous because my tires were shot.

    • @somecallmetim42
      @somecallmetim42 Před 6 měsíci

      The stuttering is due to Shaders loading and should go away after you're first run through a stage. If you are still getting stuttering it might be you are using too much memory on the graphics card so turn down the textures and maybe AA. For screen tearing either get a G-sync monitor or you can turn on V-sync (which may induce a bit of controller lag) or better still set the maximum FPS to that of your monitor or set V-sync to FAST in you have an Nvidia card.
