During training, you get more XP that can result in R&D points (I’ll get to it later), and, like in Gran Turismo, you have a gold, silver, and bronze time to beat. On the calendar, you have to choose what to do. The career more is extremely deep – you can’t just sit behind the wheel, get the trophy, and go home. There are different specializations between the teams: performance, team, reliability, or durability (I might be remembering one incorrectly here.) Depending on which you pick, you will have a few options complete by default on the skill tree. The driving model doesn’t feel stable, but I think some improvement can be felt here. Going through the different types of roads (gravel, asphalt, snow, etc), the difference can be felt in how our car reacts, and we might end up losing control over it with a spin or by going through a puddle. It’s not entirely a simulator, and it’s also not exactly an arcade game either. Then, you can decide whether you go to Junior WRC or become a WRC 2 Privateer – I picked the latter, but I can already tell you that the game will not bring you immediate success, as it is sim-cade styled.

Then, I got three options as helpers (ABS, TCS, launch control), and there are four difficulty levels (easy, medium, hard, authentic), and there are five physical damage levels (visual only, low, medium, hard, realistic), plus there’s the permacrash option (one crash means the rally is over for you). The co-driver was muter than Helen Keller. Then, the game threw me on a test stage to go through it on my own. Prepare for a 12K character thingamajig, as I went through a complete season to gather enough thoughts to write about the game…Īfter starting the game, you immediately get a question: are you a beginner, intermediate, or an expert? As the previous Kylotonn games (especially 6 and 7) had a harder, somewhat boxy physical style (the best way to describe it is that they needed a sterile, relentless driving style), I set it to beginner, because let’s face it, playing a rally game on keyboards on a higher level isn’t that good. „PC Epic” – this subject will be discussed in-depth, as it deserves a page on its own -, which got the following text as a comment: „let’s hope that it will be slightly better than the previous titles.” By Thursday, I managed to get WRC 8 Press (it’s interesting how Epic Games Store has a separate press version…), and now, on Monday afternoon, I start translating what I began writing on Sunday morning.



On Wednesday, I got an email with a code.
