It does help add to the party atmosphere. I find the blaring music at events can overpower and the soundtrack isn’t especially my cup of tea. It’s a very good looking game regardless and it does make me wonder what a Playstation 5 can do to this. I was fine with it but you definitely see what was lost in translation. Focusing on image quality gets you a sharper, more detailed image but the 30 frames-per-second mark is hit more out of hope than expectation. It can be quite jarring to switch between the two with the difference in frame-rate very clear to see. The former looks to maintain 60 frames-per-second and it does tend to succeed. Both options do what they say on the tin. When you start Dirt 5, you’re given the option to prioritise frame-rate or image quality. Puddles show off nice reflections and the mud kicked up by the roaring hoard coats the vehicles realistically. Codemasters have become fairly adept at creating beautiful racers and this is no exception. Conditions change frequently and the weather effects are really well done. It feels almost like a sequel to Dirt Showdown with the fly-bys, balloons and confetti. Track days feel lively with plenty of activity. When you’ve had your fill of the main course, this is where you could find a new challenge.ĭirt 5’s presentation has a very festival feel. Much like career, you have the usual race modes. It seems easy enough to work with and there’s hope that post-release, we can see some interesting creations. Some of the courses have been nicely created and it’s the kind of tool that could give this instalment some much needed longevity. It still feels hamstrung by the main game’s shortage of race types but I’ve seen plenty of creativity from the community. This is effectively Dirt 5‘s course creator. Career mode probably takes a leisurely weekend to complete but, to the game’s credit, there is other things to dive into. This pacing really helps soften the repetition and I dare say the AI on Normal difficulty is fairly lenient. Events are quickly dealt with and you’re swiftly into the next. There’s nothing really complex about it but there is a good feel on offer. There’s plenty of room to bump and batter your way to the front. Drifting feels easy to accomplish and damage appears to be only cosmetic. Vehicle ratings are kept fairly simple and the driving assists don’t dive too deeply. In terms of handling, Dirt 5 is firmly an arcade experience. Putting the power down seems to send them sideways very easily and it’s easily the vehicle I’ve least enjoyed. They’re all designed to turn inwards and live on oval tracks. Sprint Cars especially feel tricky to handle. They’re not all winners to drive, though. It does take liberties with what’s expected from an off-road vehicle but it does lead to some interesting match-ups. There’s plenty of rally cars, SUV’s and sports cars. One thing you don’t lack is a variety of vehicles. You do get Sprint races which introduce the sprint cars. I found them way too late in the ladder and do feel the career lacks a variety of race types.Ĭompared to the predecessor, gone are the traditional rally stages and rallycross events.

These feel like makeshift hill climbs and they do make an interesting change of pace. The only time you’re racing the clock is in Pathfinder events.
DIRT 4 REVIEW PS4 FULL
Even the rare occasions when you’re facing something point-to-point, you’ve got a full grid to tackle. It’s all off-road and you’re almost always facing a full field of 11 other competitors. The problem being that the large majority of Dirt 5‘s races being fairly short over a number of laps. Races lead to branching paths with the idea being that you can cast a wide net or stick to a speciality.

Progression which is, let’s be honest, fairly bland. It’s presented swiftly with the Nolan and Jake from Donut Media talking you through the progression. The bulk of Dirt 5‘s racing is in the career mode. What lands is a game that feels very quick-fire but the sense of variety seems to suffer. Dirt 5 lands at the tail-end of the generation and Codemasters have taken a leaner approach.
DIRT 4 REVIEW PS4 SERIES
It’s has been spun-off and reinvented more than once but now the series appears to be facing another identity crisis. It’s hard to believe how long-running the Dirt series has become.
