    Total crap and a massive downgrade from Dirt Rally. The physics are a joke and are just the same as in Dirt 3. Codemasters just lied to all us regarding physics. Hopefully, someone will sue them in the US. And the graphics are also a downgrade and just look awful.

    What a rip off! The graphics are horrible, like it's 2005!! The car physics are bad! That's why Codemasters started advertising the game, only 1 month before releasing... Cause it s*cks!! Don't make any more DiRT games please, you are just ruining the series...

    Physics are downgrade from Dirt Rally. Your Stage is cool but it's of no value with the **** arcade physics, where cars refuse to go sideways. Refunded

    Please don't reward this company with your money for this awful downgrade.

    As an avid Dirt Rally player I was stoked for Dirt 4, but somehow Codemasters really f-ed up: 1) The codriver calls. Too many nonessential calls, and too many calls come far too late, even after adjusting the Earlier v Later settings. 2) The suspension physics. Suddenly I am involved in a flat spin because    Please don't reward this company with your money for this awful downgrade.

    1) The codriver calls. Too many nonessential calls, and too many calls come far too late, even after adjusting the Earlier v Later settings.

    2) The suspension physics. Suddenly I am involved in a flat spin because I tried to brake hard, with nt indication of grip lost in my wheel. Awesome! Oh, did you want to turn left? F yourself, time to go off line and into a wall.

    3) Their algorithm is showing. Within career stages there are clearly repeated sections, whose only difference is the van or stop sign or number of spectators on the sides. I was so excited for the My Stage feature, but I never thought it'd be the only way they'd make stages!

    As someone who was super excited for this game, I'm horribly disappointed. Uninstalled, requested refund from Steam, and went back to Dirt Rally for some good fun. Codemasters, I am disapoint.    … Expand

    Dirt 4 drives it off the edge of the cliff.

    This release confirms the company is producing nothing more than middle-shelf cannon fodder to shill to unsuspecting brain-dead consumers.

    GRID was the last good racing game Codemasters made, and utterly destroyed that franchise with GRID2.

    "Dirt" is now dead, just like its progenitor, Colin MacRae.

    It is an awful thing to note: the loss of yet another great British company to greed and apathy of the very thing we once, as gamers; held so dear:

    Quality.

    Giving money to Codemasters for this 'game' is an affront to quality and the paths we chose to meet it on the road, vying for position amongst the quagmire of dross and disparity of excellence.    … Expand

    Well here is my review of this game: I played for 40 minutes then asked for refund in steam, so please take that into account. I haven't fully played this but I am going to expose the reasons why I didn't like it.

I haven't fully played this but I am going to expose the reasons why I didn't like it.

    Also I want to first say I enjoyed lots of hours of DIRT Rally and I think is an amazing driving game. I thought this would be an enjoyable experience as well and I saw some good reviews out there so I bought it. Now let's start with the review.

    The first thing you notice on the first stages is the driving and handling experience is considerably less enjoyable/realistic than DIRT Rally, even choosing simulation. It fees more arcade like, and the car seems to self-adjust itself for more stability, and at the end you having a feeling that you have less control of the racing experience. So driving is less fun that DIRT Rally.

    Second, graphic-wise the stages are too short, simple and very straight with few exciting and challenging turns. Also the views/locations of the track don't seem original either, looks a step backwards. You won't notice better quality either in the graphics, but what you will notice is a decrease in frame rate from DIRT Rally.

    Third, there is a lot of in game screens between driving and a lot of stuff like reading emails from possible team offers, create your own team, and **** of style "you've done it very well and bla bla bla, now do this and do that", look at these experience bars growing, etc. I simply don't get this, I just want a racing experience and I think I've spend more time on menus that actually driving and this is a driving game isn't it?

    So at this point I've had enough of it, the game didn't prove itself to be good enough on what it should deliver: racing. Quite a disappointment.

    Codemasters please, if you want to get cash, do DLCs/expansions for DIRT Rally adding more stages. I will be happy to spend 100€ bought of good quality stages. I thought you understood what we wanted after listening to the community and delivering a good game like DIRT Rally was. Now it feels like a step backwards again.    … Expand

    Absolute garbage from a lawbreaking and anti consumer publisher, made by a developer who doesn't bother.

    All the same bugs from Dirt Rally are here totally unfixed. There is nothing new but some tracks.

    Codemasters also revoked all Humble bundle keys for this without cause. I had to paypal dispute to get my money back.

    0/10 worst racing game I ever had the misfortune of playing

    The only advantage of the game is that the cars are beautiful . The rest is awful - corner after corner . The car always gets out of track so many times . If you want a game , get Dirt 3 or Dirt 5 . They ar good .

    All in all, Dirt 4 is an undeniably fantastic racing experience wrapped up in a dull procession of events known as a career mode. At its absolute best it can be a white-knuckle thrill ride that hardcore racing fans would do well to give a try, but those after a more consistently adrenaline-filled arcade experience may want to look elsewhere.

    An accessible off-road racer, but a lack of personality and dull management features let it down. [Aug 2017, p.76]

    Duality is the biggest flaw of Dirt 4. Fans of colorful arcade racing games will find it too dull and unforgiving, while hardcore rally enthusiasts continue to enjoy their DiRT Rally and Richard Burns Rally.
