After being thrown in the menu of the game, I went back to the test and easily got a 94 scores within like 30 minutes, and got advised a completely different set of parameters. Since it was the first time playing this game, I got a score of 40, and the game advised me the easiest set of parameters, which is a real joke knowing I have spent 90 hours on Dirt Rally. At first launch, the game proposes a driving test to assess your performance and advise a difficulty level and settings (like automatic or manual gearbox). Having been a passionate player of Dirt Rally, WRC7 certainly feels like a downgrade. Why the 6/10 ? Simple: way, way, WAY too many bugs. Considering that rally cars don’t exactly run at 200mph, that’s a compromise I’m okay with.Why the 6/10 ? Simple: way, way, WAY too many bugs.
It still runs at a locked framerate, but just like in Forza Horizon 4, it runs so smoothly that you can still feel an adrenaline-fueled sensation of speed. While WRC 8 was already a pretty game in its own right, it still suffered from some slight issues in its lighting effects and frame pacing department. The most noticeable improvement in WRC 9 is its visual fidelity. Although let’s face it, this is still a rallying game, the literal hardest category of racing in existence Therefore it will still demand a lot of concentration and lightning-fast reflexes from you. The racing itself has been slightly tweaked in favor of the newcomers, with some driving assists that make the overall gameplay feel a bit less intimidating. The career mode is still there, with a few additions. This is a very straightforward review because at its core, WRC 9 is basically WRC 8 with (very welcome) quality of life improvements. WRC 9 is like 10% easier to drive when compared to WRC 8.
