What players think

The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.

Why players love itThings to know
25% of themes are praise8% are divided67% are complaints
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
79 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's still a very pretty game, and there's actually some pretty cool things going on with the lighting, particles, weather effects, and reflections that haven’t been done in any of the previous DiRT titles (which would also explain why it's a bit harder to run).
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Your whole cabin will rumble and shake, certain sound effects will be enhanced, and the game will also attenuate/muffle other certain effects to make it sound like you're actually inside the car, which (again) is another indicator of good sound design.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Local split-screen for up to four players is a rare treat in modern racing games and adds immense value for anyone who enjoys couch multiplayer.
