WRC 10 (PS5)

Product Information

The difference between a 1972 Lancia Fulvia HF and a 1997 Ford Escort Mk VI Maxi is vast: like going from a boot of Italian leather, warmly broken and rich with give, to a New Balance running shoe, with its springy sole and double-knotted refusal to slip. What's more, the stages (of which there are some 204, with 12 of the 13 official WRC 2023 locations present and correct) offer a catalogue of vivid textures. Try driving a 1964 Mini Cooper S in Sweden, among snowy spruces, and note the hard, flinty smoothness of the turns. The weather, too, though not dynamic, plays a fine supporting role. One run, along a sunny alpine ridge, feels starkly different to a similar setting after the rain; you go from sliding neatly round dry and crumbly bends, as if the course had been dusted with instant coffee granules, to a pebble-crammed slurry of doom. That big 50th Anniversary mode is an important part of this year’s game, and it’s by far the biggest injection of historical content to the series since KT Racing started adding classic cars in WRC 8. With its own separate menu and period photography it does feel quite special at first, although there’s ultimately not really a great deal to it. They’re just a small collection of time trials with a little bit of text to explain the historical context of what you’re about to do. Cool ideas I seek (have many old racing games having a blast uncovering what had been done before, left behind, if they were gems or not), if the games themselves don't do much (besides well playing well) in the content areas of their career modes or eh driving models (if realistic it's fine if I can't play them that's on me to get good indeed though I am willing to). Fixed an issue where in-game menus could not be navigated while using the Fanatec CSL Elite Wheel Base.

The list below includes every racing wheel that works with EA Sports WRC on PC. This is the widest compatibility list of all platforms due to PC having the highest number of compatible racing wheels.Made a number of performance improvements and optimisations to Finland, including reducing the possibility of screen tearing. Want to dominate on both controller and wheel? We've got guides for both the best controller and the best wheel settings. This list includes every racing wheel that is compatible with EA Sports WRC on PlayStation 5 consoles. There are some notable omissions such as the new Fanatec ClubSport DD+ wheel. While not included, we would expect this wheel and others which aren’t included on this list to work just fine. Updated shader compilation to support seasonal variants, to further reduce the possibility of stutter on PC.

Should you come loose, you have a number of options. One, you can attempt to doughnut your way into facing the right direction. (If you have somersaulted from a lofty peak, this becomes a pretty steep challenge.) Two, you can reset your car's position, with a time penalty. And three, you can quit and enroll in the Rally School. This helpful mode teaches you the basics: juicy starts, off-throttle oversteer, deciphering the arcana of pace notes, etc. The best tests of your resolve are the Regulation Rallies, wherein you uphold an average speed for the stage, and are penalised for exceeding it. It's as though the game were balancing a biscuit on your snout and telling you to wait. Fixed an issue where brightness in interior views was either over or underexposed in certain conditions at Mexico.Adjusted Co-Driver call timings for the “Earliest”, “Earlier” and “Normal” settings, to deliver pace notes earlier. Resolved an issue where in the Ford Fiesta WRC 2019 the driver would pull the handbrake instead of the paddles to shift gears. IMMERSIVE - Revel in euphoric moments as you battle the elements across dirt, snow and asphalt in the pursuit of the perfect run The benefactor is your barometer for success in the career. Providing you weekly budgets to adhere to, they also give you various objectives to meet throughout the season — placing high enough in the WRC standings, or attending a certain number of manufacturer invitationals, for example. Fulfilling these extra tasks will net you a lot of favour with the benefactor, leading to increased budgets and potentially better contracts in later seasons. Balancing all your budgets and ensuring you're keeping the benefactor happy is a little different from your usual Career mode, but it's a fine structure that still lets you live out the fantasy of ascending the rallying ranks.

We also have a full list of compatible wheels for EA Sports WRC if you're not sure if yours will work. Changed the default Graphics settings for Reflections to Medium, when using High or Ultra graphics presets, to reduce CPU throttling (note: does not overwrite custom selected settings). Ride 4 didn't impress (fair ideas, but hard/impossible even on easy for me to play the AI are too professional not matter the cornering, the settings I gave up after many hours of trying) enough so Ride 5 not interested really (if like Ride 1 & 2, 3 & 4 were changes and 5 is like 4 in a way so nah pass) if it's similar so little racing games I care for of current gen (besides little care already for it of other titles right now and just playing PS4 versions or PS4 old games right now besides retro games for older consoles). NFS open worlds (or any open world racing) aren't for me. GT7/Forza Motorsport haven't interested me.With this first game in the new WRC franchise, there are a lot of new features and improvements that have been implemented. We have the new builder mode which looks to be an in-depth form of career mode. You’ll be able to build your own custom WRC car from the ground up for the first time, with a wide range of mechanical, interior and exterior parts to choose from.

I was disappointed to see this occur on WRC 10 because WRC 9 didn't seem to have this issue on Balanced Mode. Fixed an issue where in-game menus could not be navigated while using the Fanatec GT DD Pro with the Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel BMW GT2 V2.
