Adds Germany as a new event and a bunch of cars (Renault, Lancia, Peugeot, OPEL)

That's all I could find at the moment.

From the devs....
If you receive an update for DiRT Rally today please do not download it. If your Steam auto updates then please don't run it.
Look's like we've hit our first rock in the road and you could potentially loose your save game.
We'll update you later on our progress

There is a 1.6gb patch. A rollback or something like that.

People are saying on the codies forums that even with the rollback, it still wipes saved games.

Mine was 1.8gb.


I had a killer run going on the first night stage. Then I ran wide and smashed the wall giving myself a puncher. At the half way point. Doh.

Find these 2010s much more fun and easier to drive than the group bs

So the new patch is 1.6gb and doesnt include Germany as they uploaded the wrong version of the build :/

Patch notes mentioned fixing a saved game bug... which I guess is why you could not save mid event the other day Bauer.

After making a first-look video about Codemasters DIRT Rally Early Access version, Betta Lines was rather critical about the Force Feedback and controller support.
After the release of the video, Codemasters got in touch with Betta Lines to discuss his thoughts in more detail.

The Codemasters development team addressed some of the problems at hand and invited Betta Lines to their Studio to check out their progress.
Betta Lines was given access to the developer version and now shares a new video showing us the changes and improvements on the completely reworked force feedback system.

He gets behind the wheel of the Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak racer and performs a talk & drive session explaining some of the recently updated DIRT Rally Force Feedback effects.

That is quite a difference.

Great news everyone! DiRT Rally’s FFB update is almost ready to go live but before we do that we wanted to drop the full details on what it is we’ve changed so that it has a little time to sink in.
Which is the weirdest excuse I've ever read.

If you can leave two black stripes from the exit of one corner to the braking zone of the next, you finally have enough horsepower.

It sure is, I wonder if Betta Lines released his vid a little too soon???
Or that Codies have found some late bugs that need to be fixed..?

Appears the update has just gone live, trying now.

EDIT: Yep, soft lock on, standard setttings and it feels like it should have from the start. Very fun.

Codemasters are getting ready to deploy the Tarmac Terrors update for Dirt Rally.

The Tarmac Terrors pack will bring you a selection of insane Group B Rear Wheel Drive cars, awesome Front Wheel Drive Kit cars such as the Lancia 037 Evo 2 and Peugeot 306 Maxi.
Codemasters will also include the new Germany stages. Besides testing the fixes and refinements for the final build, the developers at the Warwickshire Studio are also working on the Rallycross pack.

If all goes well, we should see the update arrive somewhere this coming week.

In related news as Codemasters introduced the Early Access version of Dirt rally they already stated they were planning to slowly increase the price as more content was added..
So with the release of the Tarmac Terrors pack the pricing will be changed a little. Nothing will change for people that have already purchased a copy of DiRT Rally, but for new customers the price will go up by 3 USD & Euros / 1 British Pound. After the update release, the early access version of the game will cost you £25.99 / €32.99 / $37.99.
