How
does the career mode work ?
The career mode is a large number of events arranged
in a pyramid. Competing in these events will earn you
points and money. Points are the main driver of progress
as new events and pyramid tiers will open up as you
earn points. you will also unlock some cars this way.
Other
cars (and alternative liveries for them) have to be
purchased with money, and the amount of money your earn
is dictated by the difficulty you compete at in each
event. the difficulty is selected before each event,
so players can set higher difficulties on what they
consider thier specialisms to get more money, or set
lower difficlties to pass events they may not be so
good at.
What's
different about Championship mode ?
Championship mode is the "Pure Rally" part
of DiRT. Cars that have been won or purchased in Career
mode (of classes 4WD, FWD, RWD and Classic) can be used
to compete in rally events at varying levels of difficulty
and length. single rallies, short championships, and
a full world championship are available, and each in
an optional "short" or "long" format.
Can
you totally wreck your car ?
At all levels of difficulty apart from the lowest, terminal
damage is a risk the most usual cause of this is tearing
a wheel off.
*(for
some damaged cars screenshots go here)
What
about functional damage ?
The following functional parts of the car can be damaged:
Engine
Gearbox
Drive Shafts
Exhaust
Bodywork
Cooling
Suspension
Wheels
Turbo
Some of these have a visual effect or are damaged as
a direct result of deformation, such as suspension.
The level of functional damage applied depends on the
chosen difficulty setting.

Tyre
selection is not an option as it's very much a right-or-wrong
selection. you're either on the right tyres or you aren't,
so it was decided to always give the player the right
tyres.
How
does multiplayer mode work?
The multiplayer mode in dirt is on-line, real-time where
up to 100 players compete on the same stage at the same
time. There's no wheel-to-wheel racing with collisions
- the multiplayer mode uses the rally and hill climb
cars and tracks.
Is
it true that there are no voice comms in the game?
There are voice comms in the game, but it's on a one-to-one
basis. you pick someone to talk to while you're in the
lobby waiting for the race to start.
