Back to school!!
I experience crashes only when loading the races. A quick search revealed a lot of users are getting them, alongside F1 and Dirt 2, DX11, win7 64, damn code masters.I got only 1 crash till now, but that too while traversing through the menus, not in game...
@tkin: wen i played dirt 2 for the first time i was not able to keep the car on the road and on every turn i would just draw circles in the same place......i even gave up that game...but then later i started playing it again and now m able to play it decently...
If you are coming straight from arcade racers, that's the problem you would face handling a rally car. I remember, I took almost a month to master the car in the original Colin McRae Rally. And those days, it was not pseudo-simulation like the Dirt series. On the other hand, when I moved to NFS HP after 3 months long voyage with Dirt 2, I was actually sliding and wobbling at the corners as I was trying to handle the cars like a rally race.
But nothing beats RBR from a simulation point, even I had given up on it. It's so damn hard to keep a car straight.

Huh, then you should had come to my home to see how well I play, I can bet I would had defeated you@tkin: wen i played dirt 2 for the first time i was not able to keep the car on the road and on every turn i would just draw circles in the same place...
Noob query- Is NFS HP an Arcade racing game? If it is then what type is Dirt 2/3? What's the difference?

HP is arcade and Dirt 3 is same, its a bit more like a sim than HP is(pure arcade) but lacks the true spirit of sims(aka GT5, F1), its a hybrid with emphasis towards arcadishness, am I making any sense at all?Huh, then you should had come to my home to see how well I play, I can bet I would had defeated you

Well, Dirt 3 is not as much arcade like as HP is, there are some rules, you can't just go into a corner @ 200MPH and expect to slide around it, you'll lose control and turn around, or topple, but its not true sim as in true sims a lot of real world physics are applied, for eg you'll turn around even on straight road if you lose the balance in true sims, try playing one and you'll understand, it feels extremely boring and fcking hard.

Now I completely understand. In a word, DIRT 3 is much much harder than HP,
I already tried Dirt 2 some months back, tried to put the car on track for two days but wasn't able to do that, thus uninstalled. Besides, I didn't like the surroundings, I mean that driving in a dirty road and that environment I didn't like. Lets see how DIRT 3 is...

Not that hard, actually it didn't fell hard to me(except drifting, but I managed somehow), but if you hated Dirt 2 you won't like it, guaranteed, same driving mechanics here.Now I completely understand. In a word, DIRT 3 is much much harder than HP,

BTW: this is a video I made with Dirt(that's the first one), I was still a noob then, coming from nfs I tried to drift through all the corners, now I just slow down.

LOL I am not good at rally races either. I win a race in usually 3-4 attempts. Its a rare case that I would win in first attempt. Although Gymkhana mode was easier than others for me but races specially snow races my oh my.

I can't even play Dirt 2 well, and you want me to try harder ones before?

Well I played Dirt 2 for a whole month after which I understood the theory behind the game, and achieved some position other than 8th. But Dirt 3 is very easy imo . If you first play in Casual Mode with all assists on, you will never go off road or topple.
Gymkhana is a piece of cake.
Especially with the controller. But I don't like to drift around in normal races. And snowy tracks are easier than those Kenya ones. Its easier to turn the cars...Yes if u mean games like F1 2010, they are just too hard. and damn boring, with **** rules.

Well gymkhana is easy for me also but others are nightmare. Well I don't play at casual it feels like I am being spoon feed which I don't like. I play on intermediate.soumo27 said:
