The format for the next championship is to session the same location (TBC) in progressively faster cars. This we all get to know the course before jumping behind the wheel of something brutish like the Group B monsters. We'll pick a location by vote from base game content. But for the cars the DLC opens up more progression options, by including classes: Group B RWD F2 Kit Car (FWD) 4WD Up to 2000cc For now let's go all in or all out to keep participation numbers up. Maybe in future we can run parallel clubs. P.S. In the event of a split or very close vote we'll stick with base content for now... No DLC option looks like this: H1 fwd H2 fwd H3 rwd GT rwd NR4 4wd Group A 4wd Group B 4wd If we add DLC to we could run this format over a few events with each focusing on a single drive class: E.g. FWD Location X H1 H2 R2 F2 Kit car (DLC) RWD Location Y H2 H3 Group B RWD (DLC) GT 4WD Location Z NR4 Group A R5 2000cc (DLC) Group B ................Or something in between There is a full content list here that indicates which cars are DLC and links to specs. https://dirt.fandom.com/wiki/DiRT_Rally_2.0 For those on steam, DLC cars can be purchased individually for $2.95, and you only need a single car from each class to participate, but the season packs are the best value. Year one pass gets you all the DLC (S1/2/3/4) @$29.95, or if you already bought the deluxe version (S1/S2) you can get the balance (S3/S4) for $16.95. Else locations are $5.95 individually. https://store.steampowered.com/sub/388533/ For those on PSN prices are cheaper individually ($2.05 per car and $5.25 per location or $14.95 for S3/4) but the year one pass all DLC bundle (S1/2/3/4) is the same as steam at $29.95: https://store.playstation.com/en-au/product/EP4001-CUSA12747_00-DIRTRALLY2YEAR1P Personally I highly recommend the DLC bundle. The additional Rally locations are well worth it (7@ >$5 individually, brings the total up to 13), and obviously the cars are good too (hence this poll) So let us know which way you want to go, poll is open for 7 days
I voted no, only because at the moment we only really just started to get into it, so why not explore the options in the base game first before branching out into the DLC
Yea fair enough all good, looks like a fun championship to me either way, and we can always revisit DLC options in future.
$29.95 (just looked it up now and updated OP) https://store.playstation.com/en-au/product/EP4001-CUSA12747_00-DIRTRALLY2YEAR1P
I'm just curious to what is everyone's thoughts now on DLC. We have about 10 (Give or take) regular competitors on the leader boards. How many of us have DLC vs how many dont? For the non DLC people, if we were to do DLC would you rather spend out on a location($5.25 each) or a class($2.05 each)(remembering you only have to buy one vehicle in that class to compete), or get the season pass entirely? My ideas: One way we could do it is having a DLC location and setting up 7 events(non DLC vehicles) there like our current championship. Or we could do it like our previous championship - One class(DLC) across multiple locations(Non DLC).
