Jos: all official cars?ok that’s like 3 cars then :P

Let's see... Citroen: 2, Citroen Junior Team: 3, Ford: 3, Stobart? Munchi's?: 2? Damn, that's a LOT of cars! 2 models with 2 variations! GT5, eat your heart out!

I’d like to see a vintage rally game. Bring back some of those insanely overpowered classics.

Paul Kelly: Milestone

RBR is pretty old, but tbh WRC is dying pretty bad and basically just has two manufacturers now. So maybe we could have someone make an actual realistic rally game based on the IRC.

Howie47: If this is just another rally game like RBR where you can’t fell(FF) the same ruts, pot holes and changing road surfaces, (gravel, mud, sand water, etc)that you see. But just has cannedFF effects. I don’t think it will have much appeal.With PhysX much realer dynamic interaction should be integrated into theroad surface model. IF not forget it.(attention developers)

If this is just another rally game like RBR I am a very happy simmer

Paul Kelly: ISC chairman: “There is no definitive rally video game out there right now”Guess he’s never heard of Richard Burns Rally on the PC.

He hasn’t because it is a RallySim

FooAtari: No it wasn’t. It was pretty much the same game. It was damn near impossible to play with a pad.

My bad, you're right. Sorry for the mistake.

yavin: @gtrNL : RBR has been released on Xbox yeah, but it was not the same game as the PC version. Gameplay was totarlly different, more arcade style :)

“This will be all of the official cars on all of the official tracks”

If that´s true, im gonna buy it,
even if its not a full sim.

I dont know about that, a sim with accurate physics + stages would allow people to get pretty much unlimited practice driving a stage and basically memorising it, something Loeb or any other rally driver doesnt have the privilege of doing.

As far as the game is concerned, it sounds more like its targeted towards the broader audience so its hard to see it improving or even emulating RBR.

By: Sensekhmet

Sensekhmet — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 09:51:29 +0000

I don’t believe this will be a full sim. There is no creature on this planet* who can keep up with Loeb over a true to life 30km rally stage in a true to life WRC car, making the ‘hardcore sim’ concept worthless as far as gameplay is concerned.

* Maybe save for Hirvonen.

gtrNL: Very true, but Black Bean made SBK09, right? One of they most realistic motor games out there.
I have high hopes for this one…

Black Bean produced it, Milestone realized it (which is the same team who’s working on this). In past interviews they made it clear that it won’t be a total simulation, but at least there’s the hope to have an enjoyable title anyway.

Being multiple platforms isn’t the issue. The issue is who’s making it :)

By: gtrNL

gtrNL — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 06:23:46 +0000

If they really do make a game which is realistic and has all the WRC stages I would be very amazed, but most of all, incredibly happy!

And for doom-thinkers saying that a multi platform release can not ever be realistic, think about this: Richard Burns Rally was released for the XboX…
