Dirt Rally 2.0 – Codex

Dirt Rally 2.0 is a racing video game focused on rallying and rallycross. Players compete in timed stage events on tarmac and off-road terrain in varying weather conditions. The game features stages in Argentina, Australia, New Zealand, Poland, Spain and the United States.^[1] Codemasters also announced plans to expand the game through the release of downloadable content.^[2] Dirt Rally 2.0 lets players choose between a total of fifty cars, including World Rallycross Supercars and eight circuits from the FIA World Rallycross Championship.^[2][3] Every car can have its setup adjusted before before a race.^[4]These are definitely necessary, as the game now also features a new weather modelling system where changes in the weather affect the relative level of grip and require players to take a more nuanced approach to driving. The weather also affects visibility in stages. The surface of the stages is also subject to degradation; as more cars pass over a stage, more than 100 layers ensure that the road surface will start to shift and break up, affecting grip levels. The gameplay therefore demands maximum concentration, especially as some tracks take more than 10 minutes to complete. There is no rewind function and damages not only have a visual but also mechanical effect.
