Description
DiRT Rally is the most authentic and thrilling rally game ever made, road-tested over 80 million miles by the DiRT community. It perfectly captures that white knuckle feeling of racing on the edge as you hurtle along dangerous roads at breakneck speed, knowing that one crash could irreparably harm your stage time.

DiRT Rally also includes officially licensed World Rallycross content, allowing you to experience the breathless, high-speed thrills of some of the world’s fastest off-road cars as you trade paint with other drivers at some of the series’ best-loved circuits, in both singleplayer and high-intensity multiplayer races.

    This game was the one that was free w/ Humble Bundle about a week ago?

    • yep I Got it then,

    • was free w/ Humble Bundle about a week ago?

      How can I missed that XD

    • Yeah, got it then, downloaded, and forgot to play.
      Maybe this weekend.

    • Pretty sure Steam was some sort of clause that if a developer makes their game free on another platform then they also need to make it free on steam.

      • +2

        Yes, there is - I have actually read the terms and conditions and license terms and there are quite a "few" very questionable clauses which in my professional capacity I am certain would be held unenforceable and void if tested in court. In fact, in Europe some of those have got Steam in hot water already in the past.
        Another reason while I do not understand store controversies. That clause does not necessarily ensure competition either and is aimed at cementing Steam's position as the total market leader and cuts back on a game developer's freedom to do promote his product as he or she wishes.

          "got Steam in hot water"

          Nice.

    • Thought it sounded familiar…!

  • can anyone recommend a cheap PC steering kit, something for my son to bash around with.

    • +4

      Find something used on gumtree like a g25/g27..

    • +2

      A second-hand Logitech Driving Force GT (DFGT) did me well until I eventually upgraded.

    • +7

      I would highly recommend finding a G29 off gumtree. I got the the wheel, pedals and shifter for $199. The condition was like new. Spending more on a wheel is hard, because you don't know if you/they will actually use the wheel a lot or not - it takes effort to store it, pull it out and use it, and many will buy the wheel and use it only for a short period before storing it permanently.

      • I am still using my XBox 360 wheel to play Dirt 3, hope this one support it.

        • What Xbox 360 wheel?
          If it works on Dirt 3 it probably works on Dirt Rally.

          • @Nereosis:

            What Xbox 360 wheel?

            Yes still work without any issue on Dirt 3 PC.

      • Truth right here!

      • Have no idea how you got it for $199 to be honest, I'd buy that in a heartbeat!

        • +2

          That's what I did! The guy lost the power adapter, so was selling it for cheap while they were moving house. I had a power brick laying around that fit it which was great, if not they cost $50 from JayCar. The guy had it listed at $300, I showed him that you can get it new for $350 (at the time), said I would offer him $250. Then found out it didn't have power adaptor so offered him $200.

  • It is the time to open my g920.

  • Also available for Mac

    • Updated OP, thanks.

  • This just made my day a little bit better, thanks OP!

  • Already got this on PS4. Bloody good game.

      Create a steam account and claim when it's available? Who knows you might get a PC down the road.

      • Oh yeah, I'll claim this anyway because it's free - what site do you think we're all on here? :P

        I have Steam, Epic and GOG accounts all full of stuff I got either for free or close to it. I've even played a few of them!

  • Thanks, forgot to claim my key from Humble. Saved!

  • Dirt Rally 2.0 Super mega deluxe ultra is $140 on steam… JFC.

    • +4

      I prefer the codemasters complete collection bundle with the 12% discount bringing down to a small $788.88

      • Do they do AfterPay?

        • -1

          Why Afterpay for something like this….

  • -4

    Yes please now go find me a wheel

    • *to go

  • +2

    yep I just bought Dirt Rally on steam last month….

  • Dirt cheap!

  • Good tip with the Reminder! Never knew it was there.

    • I must be a bit dim, but I can't see a reminder button?

      Edit: found it. I was looking on steamdb for the button.

  • Thanks, ordered one :)

  • Its a hard game to learn they tried to make the steering feel real and its a bit funky.

    • It's tough to master but oh so rewarding when you do. I don't like hard games like darksouls but this is different.

      Although driving the insane group B cars well is out of reach for almost everyone just like real life.

  • Good game, good post. Cheers.

  • Does it have local multiplayer mode, like split screen? A quick google search says no, can anyone confirm pls?

    • No split screen on any platform

  • active now (well was at 3am)

  • Got this now..

  • +5

    Am I missing something. I purchased the free game, (It now says 'Dirt Rally is already in your Steam Library')

    I go to the Windows Steam desktop app and there is nothing in my library.

    Clicking on 'Play Game' just takes me to the store's Dirt page, where it starts playing the video.

    I've tried restarting, clearing download cache.

    ?

    • +5

      Ok, looks like I haven't completely lost my mind. Lots of folks having the same issue.

      "Thank you for contacting Steam Support.

      We are investigating this issue with DiRT Rally being unable to be installed from the Steam Store page.

      As soon as we have more information"… and so on.

    • +1

      Same issue happening with me too

    • +1

      Yep, same issue. Not showing in library, click 'Play Now' and the page reloads. Logged onto the Android App this morning to ensure I snagged this and added it from there, so thought that might have been an issue.

  • +2

    Anyone out there with VR gear should check this game out.
    GUARANTEED motion sickness (at least for me) but the first few minutes you look around in the game when driving are pretty awesome!

    • yeah I wanted to try with my rift s but so far no luck… waiting for steam to fix it..

  • Same issue here, clicking on play now just takes me to the store page.

  • Does this work with the logitech steering whell? i can't get it to work.

  • +3

    hi guys, noob question, I did everything including account setup and installation of steam on my Mac, but whenever I click on the "play" button in the steam window on my Mac, it just reloads that dirt rally page with the videos. Nothing launches.. Any tips please?

    • +1

      same issue with windows app.

    • It's an issue that a lot of people are having today. Give it a day or so, Steam should fix it and it should eventually show in your library

    • Same issue windows .. raised a support ticket.

      • Same here didn't even see it in my library.

  • Is there a way to install this without issue? I'm holding back for a fix.

  • Bloody fun!

    I need to go find a wheel for it too. JB's were doing a wheel & shifter deal recently too but I didn't get in on it.

    But I played with a standard Xbox controller and it was good too.

  • +1

    Same as some others, I got the "success, game has been registered to your account", but no game after clicking download?

    Was this a deal where they had limited free keys or something similar?

    For those who got it installed in this offer— did you get a key?

  • +1

    same here, says I've purchased it already but no download.. at least I know its a problem.

  • +1

    got the same problem too. Windows 10

  • "DiRT Rally is already in your Steam library" Getting hard to keep a track of all these libraries…

  • Also getting the continuous page reload every time I hit 'Play'.

    Steam keeps saying it's already in my library but the only Dirt titles I have in my list are DiRT 3 and DiRT Showdown.

  • can I neg this deal if this still doesn't work? :)

    • Same here

  • I can see it in my library now and downloading 26.3GB.

    • Same here. It seems it took about 24 hours from the time it was claimed until it actually appeared in my library (due to the fact it says "Purchased Yesterday" on the game's library page).

      Steam must be struggling to allocate sufficient stock with the amount of people claiming this game.
