[@iansteelmatheson]

no distinction between gravel, light gravel, medium gravel, heavy gravel and dirt? what about slush, compacted snow and (regular?) snow in sweden? what about snow vs ice in monte carlo? what about cobblestones, smooth asphalt and concrete in germany? all of these are in the game and cars behave slightly different on each. why not tell us what the differences are, even if it's essentially just to show off the attention to detail in the game?

[@Falquiboy]

1:0 for you

[@Tommy712rus]

Tarmac in DR: Still same loose gravel, just little more grip

[@VollenhoveVanBoven]

the tutorials are 1 year too late, but thx anyway!

[@WalkingSinger05]

I love this series! Just awesome, the explanation its 100% understandable and its too good for new drivers and the older drivers 🙌

[@noelmccullagh]

Finding these tutorials great

[@all_your_baser_belong_to_us]

Just got this game and I’m absolutely loving it!

[@alec7568]

I like these tutorials but I just couldn't take the tarmac one seriously when codemasters have even admitted the tarmac doesn't feel how it should.

[@Richie_]

Snow is my favourite surface.

[@ygdaybey]

Actually, I try to improve my heel and toe skills with a shifter I know it's a little bit weird on Dirt. So I can take advice about that from your experienced fellas. Have fun.

[@grahambradley8870]

Surface types?.... Comeon get a grip.

[@RampantFury925]

Somebody really needs some racing shoes.

[@RampantFury925]

@@jdmsg8441 better then just your socks though.

[@RampantFury925]

@@jdmsg8441 They help your feet stay on the pedals. Socks just slip around.

[@smeghead666]

@@RampantFury925 lmao, your feet are supposed to "slip around" that's how you press pedals down. Racing shoes are there to keep your feet warm and dry, stop you getting slashed by any potential sharp edges or jabbed by pointy bits of gravel, they allow you to walk to and from the car and they've got some fireproofing. They protect your feet, that's their sole purpose. Its fine that people wanna play dress up on their sim but it sure as shit ain't needed lol

[@shredd5705]

Depends on pedals used, my T500 stock pedals are so flimsy, that putting shoes on means I lose all feel/accuracy from my inputs. With socks I can feel much better what I'm doing with the pedals, and how far pressed each is in each situation. Heel and toeing is a bit harder though, with thick wool socks it's okay

[@The-Man23]

*I DONT EVEN HAVE A CONSOLE OR PC!!!!*

[@galaxian_hitchhiker]

Everybody keeps saying that tarmac feel is not real as gravel on DR2 but they keep unhearing the community.

[@markobarisic7846]

What is a diff?

[@EASPORTSWRC]

Differential. It's a system that allows the left and right-hand wheels of a car to rotate at different speeds.

[@valtterilonnqvist2250]

fix tarmac...

[@Yelonek92]

Can I play on a pad?

[@ZisisKoukoumakis]

Yes, you have to tweak the left stick a bit but it's very much playable.

[@eternellepensee4358]

I do that, it's cool.

[@mikeknight5184]

Come to my house John

[@MohamedAli965]

This is obvious stuff man. I get that these are supposed to be introductory but you can put a lot more detail and length into them.

[@lucascorrea7088]

I still cannot play this game.... luckily I've paid like, 4 bucks on steam (goty game)

[@oldschoolsang93]

In french please

[@javiercrosetto4860]

SPANISH PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!! ESPAÑOL POR FAVOR!!!!!!

[@CZRaS]

nein

[@010falcon]

ITS NOT TARMAC ITS ASPHALT NOT TARMAC please dirt rally 2.0 i love it. But when you do tutorials (especially way after the release of the game), THEN DO IT RIGHT

[@yatoakito2037]

I don't have a wheel, these don't feel useful to me even though I'm playing the game...

[@dpounder101]

Get a wheel. This is still all useful info for gamepads though. I played the original on a pad almost a year and the techniques are the same as hes showing here, you just use the sticks and triggers instead of a wheel and pedals.

[@Nightswipe1]

From this point forward. Snow rallies will only exist in video games. Keep making unrealistic weathereffects!

[@ryanmichaelhaley]

That's funny, I just watch Loeb on a snow track in WRC+ I guess you don't watch it.

[@Nightswipe1]

@@ryanmichaelhaley No. And you seem to fail to realize the point I made. (global warming)

[@Marksman91]

This guy is teaching you about the how to rally race and is horrible himself. His racing lines are terrible. He veers away from the previously driven lines (which have more grip provided they aren't rutted). Also in Sweden he mentions that you can carry more speed due to the embankments. This is false. You want to stay away from the embankments. However, if you have a high ride height, you can dip into the embankments to slow you down faster and reduce your braking time and distance. But going too far in and it will pull you in, destabilize the vehicle, and get you stuck.

[@alec7568]

The dude is actually a real life professional so I'm willing to bet he's a little better than you 👌

[@shredd5705]

Lol he's a pro rally driver, idiot. Maybe he didn't make his best efforts for this video, as he was mainly focused on talking and not driving

[@KalElRedK]

He says you can carry more speed INTO the corner which is correct.
