That said, it has never been a form of PC racing that I was ever very good at, at least in its traditional form. If a racing game needs to build in the difficulty by giving the driver a hard time to see the road in most races, then it just sucks in my eyes.Rally racing, while not my absolute favorite form of auto racing, has always been something of an interest to me. I haven’t seen such bad contrast in any other racing game or any other game. That is not only not fun, it is also unrealistic.

At least on my TV the contrast is absolutely horrible, above you have the super bright sky, and down you are driving in the shadow with the road and everything being in a near black with hardly any contrast. What I particularly don’t like about Codemasters racing games (Dirt 5 but also Dirt Rally 2.0) is that they either don’t care or even want to make a point in the player having a very hard time seeing the track. And generally I found the game to be extremely disappointing and in every aspect vastly inferior to Forza Horizon 4 (far worse car handling, far worse graphics, far worse tracks, far worse game modes). In the end I played the game with the regular Series X controller as the trigger rumble was unbearable on the Elite 2. I got two pieces of Wireless Elite 2 controllers here btw, and while overall the quality on these controllers is pretty bad, especially considering the high price, I don’t think both have the trigger vibration broken. And it looks like Codemasters didn’t test it. I am not sure whether MS has some guidelines when to use which rumble functionality but having the left trigger vibrate in situations when you not necessarily have your finger on the trigger seems to be a bad practice. On a regular Series X or One controller I think it’s ok but on the Wireless Elite 2 it sounds like the controller is broken when the trigger rumbles. The triggers rumble when you hit the ground after a jump. Does anyone else have issues with the rumble in Dirt 5 on Xbox with a Wireless Elite 2 Controller?
