The rain in the game will add a new layer of complexity to the player’s vision creating a new challenge, though the fog is a nightmare, and almost impossible to drive through. The fog made it hard to see and is effective at that even if it’s only a simple effect. The two pieces that really impress me in this game though was the water effect for when a driver is in heavy rain or splashing through a puddle, or a strange fog that I only remember seeing once in the Career mode. It’s a clever trick, but one that anyone paying attention to will quickly see through. The people are fine for what they are supposed to be, but the undergrowth and everything that whizzes by is awfully weak when looked at up close. In addition, if the player flies off the track anywhere, they’ll quickly realize everything outside of the main track doesn’t have the best looks. The game can look pretty good in motion, but some of these images will lack due to a being snapshots. Players don’t feel a unique experience with any track because graphically they’re all the same pieces. It’s a shame because it makes all the tracks feel similar in the wrong ways. There’s a track you race on, some crowd, maybe a few cars, or even a broken down car, but no visual markers.Įach course feels similar in that the pieces of the course have been conquered by the player previously, but at the same time, it’s a different order. Each track is generated, and we’ll talk more about that as time goes on, but the generated tracks are not very visually interesting. The tracks themselves look ok, mostly the road that’s under you looks like a road, but this is partially done to a few tricks and partially due to a lack of effort. Pieces can be removed, the entire front of the car can be damaged, and quite often the player will end the race with more than a few bumps and bruises to the pristine automobile. The cars definitely shine and in fact, there is a decent amount of destructibility to the cars. The focus is on the cars and track, and both look good. Graphically, the game looks amazing in motion. So this game is right up my alley, and I was thrilled to see the improvements and what the brand new edition of the series will bring. I’ve personally played every Dirt game since the original Colin McRae: Dirt, and even played both Dirt Rally and Dirt Showdown. That’s right, it’s Dirt 4, by Codemasters and it’s time to see how this game measure up. Rather than hit a track, this time we’re going to prove ourselves on dirt roads. It’s time to hit the road once again, take our cars out and see who’s the fastest. Also Available on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One
