Has somebody had the similar problem, when the stage is loaded and u see the car on the startline and the game crashes? I installed it today, and I didn't drive any meter today yet :'(

[Plan9]

I have it on PS3 and I was able to fix my problems by downloading a patch. What version do you have? Until I fixed the problem it was funny because on the Sweden SSS I was racing against Loeb and my car and his combined so I had a Mini-DS3 to race around the track!!!

[mousti]

Already installed the patch, and still same problem. For me it's on PC, and yes my computer is compatible for the game :)



:(

[lcd]

Hmmmm, are you on winxp or win7......?

[mousti]

I've fixed it I need to change the Hz of my audio system on this computer. Btw the sounds of the cars are horrible, that Fiesta has like a screaming kit car or something :s

[Plan9]

I can't believe that these guys got the contract for so long. The 2010 edition had its problems but this is getting silly. For instance, in the Academy careers mode I start the French rally with Pirelli tyres on my Fiesta and end with Michilins. Sometimes to proceed from one screen to the next you sometimes have to press X twice. I don't understand what has gone wrong here???
Not to mention software gremlins.

I played this at Rally GB and to be honest if the co-driver wasnt so bad, and basic things like the Great Orme being gravel were fixed id probably buy it at a slightly reduced price!

I tend to use the female co-driver. She doesn't sound like a freaky robot! I think these mistakes and lack of detailing on the cars kind of kills the fun a bit.

Suggestion: In the next game with a career mode; try to get read life brands to sponsor the game, Driver:Grid has that feature and it makes it so much more fun!

I just got this, its actually quite good. Blackbean has done well!

[ThugStyle]

I'm having a problem, while playing WRC 2 its giving me a IO Callback Error I have no clue what it is and how to get it solve. I really love this game an would love to complete the Road To WRC challenge.

[mousti]

Aren't there any Mods for these games especially other liveries??

[Allyc85]

Hilarious, I bought this game yesterday (£15 brand new!) and the sound effects are so bad my mum mocked them as she walked past my room!! I thought the effects in Moto GP 09/10 were bad but this is the new winner.

The game play is just about passable for a casual blast, but the pace notes are a joke and massively inconsistent while being called far too late.

Still it might keep me entertained for a little bit and its a bit of a break from Forza 4!

Thats exactly what I did with Wrc 2010, waited til it had been knocked down in price :)

Dissapointed to hear Plan9 point out that there are still stupid faults with the newer game, I remember in 2010 a challenge where you had to beat Juha Kankunnen in New zealand. Then when competing, the split time came up....M Gronholm! Theyve got the wrong Finn!

You have Juha Kankunnen in this game? I forget where it is found in 2010 can you remind me? This seems very unfamiliar to me!

I can't begin to imagine what the 2012 game will be like. If the rumors are true about Mini then there might be 5 or 6 drivers in the 52 car and the developers will have to waste room on the disk to fit them all in; crazy!!!

I don't recall the PS2 games having this many problems.

No Juha Kankunnen, it just says there is on the loading screen, then when it loads up, youre actually competing against Gronholm! I'll load the game up and take some pictures:-)

[tfp]

If only the good lord had gifted me with the ability of uploading pictures to the forum :D
But I swear, it did happen :D

[Plan9]

that's cool I've seen that too. No worries I get you now. I think that the developers tried to do too much with this game. I.e. in 2011, the championship does not have enough different stages and those mini-championships in career mode are just a distraction as you do all those rallies eventually anyway. If you follow me??

I'm glad its not just me that saw that :D

Yeah I understand, too many R2/R3 competitions and not enough of the 4wd competitions?

Just out of interest, which version do you play? Xbox, Ps or Windows?
Can you get the group b cars in the 2011 game? I'd probably buy it just for that :)

[Plan9]

I play Ps3 version and yes you can get the group b cars but they are bloody difficult to control also due to restrictive legislation the tobacco/alcohol liveries of some of our favorite cars has been altered unfortunately.

I don't think there needs to be any "competitions" at all just the championships for Academy, Production, SWRC, WRC. it seems a waste of time to have all these meta competitions designed to improve your driving when you can just adjust the difficulty settings.

I only bought the game so I could use the Mini (sad that there was no Mini 1.6T).

[Langdale Forest]

How much memory space does this game take up on PS3?

[mousti]

I'm now playing Colin McRae 3 again, much more fun with a way older game! More difficult plus some effects there are missing in a much newer game! Like a broken wheel, or flat tire.. Great Pacenotes, Japan who's very difficult but very amusing!

[Frozzy]

i recently got the game and gotta say its not too bad i quite enjoy the online aspects and uploading photos is quite nice .

[Plan9]

What is the level of competition like online? What is the most competitive car on there?

[Allyc85]

I have to say, I am actually starting to enjoy the game a little. The handling isn´t too bad when you get used to it, and rally´s like Argentina, Greece, Italy and Australia are good fun. There´s a large difference between the rallies that were in the game last year, and those that are new this year. The latter are much more challenging, narrow and fun to drive. Would´ve liked to have better car sounds, and of course a co-driver that sounds like a human being.

Really agreed with this!

The newer stages are a million times better than last years and its not hard to tell which ones are the new ones! Its just a shame they seem to have done the pace notes pulling numbers out of a hat as ive never known a 5 right to be second gear in a system where the faster the corner the higher the number! It is also funny that if you get the pace notes called earlier, the symbols dont match and will show something completely different!

WRC game to Codemasters next year please :)

[A.F.F.]

Like the first one, this game was a huge disappointment :down:

[Plan9]

Black Bean have the license for 1 more WRC game. 2013 things may change.

Hello everyone! Look at my first gameplay of Wrc 2011 !

So, do you like the game?

[Andreb94]

So, do you like the game?

Yes.

[Plan9]

Does anyone know when 3 is coming out?

What is everyone's favorite car/driver to use?

[lcd]

WRC3 Is expected Q4 2012 (October or November)
I enjoy the WRC Academy class very much ;)

[Allyc85]

The only car I use is the WRC Mini as the sound is too bad on the others IMO!

[lcd]

I think the fiestas sound quite decent too.

[Plan9]

If only BMW felt the way you did about the actual car.

lol Dont get me started on that!!

[Bruce D]

Hi guys I haven't been around for a while, with good reason! Got retrenched from my job in January but starting my next one tomorrow.

I finally got this game yesterday and I'm impressed by it, more realistic and tricky.

I'm looking into running a league for it in the future based on what I did in RBR but better.

[Bruce D]

OK been playing this for a few weeks now and loving it! Much better than the first one and you can get into some epic battles in rallies. I like it a lot.

[lcd]

Yes Indeed! Especially the new countries (Italy,Greece,Argentina and Australia) are very well designed, based on the real stages.

[bennizw]

Is there anyone else than me who is wondering what will happen with the third WRC-game? North One has gone down the drain, so what happens to the WRC-rights of making a game? Milestone have a contract out this year don´t they?

[Bruce D]

Milestone / Blackbean have already announced that WRC 3 would be out in October. Blackbean make every game slightly better than the last one so lets see what happens.

[Plan9]

True only slight improvements lol! Maybe this time they will make a game where the cars actually sound like they do in reality. Third times a charm but I am not holding my breath; could be bought on impulse I guess...

[Bruce D]

If you've seen how the Superbike series evolved you'd have more faith.

[Plan9]

No I haven't seen that. But I have to say I have never bought a game where I have needed to download a patch to fix errors on it before I could play properly. Also WRC 1 and 2 are very similar in terms of content although on the PS3 I do note that the handling of the cars is improved on number 2. Also have you noticed that Tanak is not available in SWRC mode? How weird is that...

[lcd]

The Champ on WRC2 action!!!

Lol I bet he played as Ken Block....

[Allyc85]

He dosnt really look that happy! Hoepfully he can give some constructive criticism ;)

[lcd]

Actually, he Isn't playing WRC2, but WRC3 which Is on the works. This Is an official Info!

[Plan9]

Cool. Any screen shots yet? Maybe Seb can have some input?

[lcd]

The Italian developers keep silence at the moment.
My guess Is that we will hear from them, In a couple of months (hope sooner though!)

Nice Pics!

Ok completed my 4th season. Disappointing end to season. Haven't played for a while so gotta get back in. Messed up SS5 and 6 in Spain. I might well have got points.

Britain was a write-off: The left side of my car clipped an obstacle on the inside of an uphill left-hander in the final third of SS2 so had to SuperRally. Struggled through other stages as I clipped more things. But they were only slight errors. No chance of points, but showed real promise with a 3rd fastest time on SS6, which was the power stage!

However, cars retired in front, allowing Dani Sordo to claim 3rd. This allowed him to beat me in the championship by 1pt...


END OF SEASON STATS

Pos: 7th (97pts)

To Compare:
Season 1
=======
1pt
20th in championship

22pts
13th in championship
1 victory
3 stage wins
23 top 10 stage times
23 times 19th or 20th in stage
42 Green Sectors

Season 3
=======
52pts
8th in championship
1 victory
1 2nd place
8 stage wins
35 top 10 stage times
12 stage times in 19th or 20th
64 Green Sectors

Season 4
=======
97pts
7th overall
1 victory
3 2nd places
15 stage wins
49 top 10 stage times
9 stage times 19th or 20th
98 Green Sectors

Love the improvement. :)


OK started season 5 with Matty. Same as usual - Full Damage - MAX difficulty AI speed - No driver aids - No Rewind etc. Haven't been playing for a while, so a bit wobbly with many small errors in Sweden but do show improved speed when I get a clean run. Still only good for 8th overall, 38sec off the win. It's reasonable.

2.MEXICO - A write-off as the car was slow in every single stage. Yet I was still running 10th after SS5 and pace was close to last season, despite being much slowed by damaged car!! Also, the mistakes I made were only slight errors but with large consequences, like just clipping a gate on SS1 and ruining the car. I repeated the mistake on the re-run in SS4! Yet I still set some green sectors with the car down on power. Finished out of the points, but am encouraged by potential.

Sadly, never released :(

About it no idea and need here best explanation about it therefore it is better for all if the comments must be much over simplify.
