Cannot run it on a 3060 laptop. Tried every Anti Aliasing, other settings, only the last one looks best, but hey it gives 40 fps at 99% gpu usage lol. Reducing graphics to medium, 70% barely gives 60fps constantly at 1080p from Cabin Camera, The 3rd person camera gives 15% more fps for some reason. The map looked extremely boring, repetitive empty terrain auto generated most probably.
Trucking game should not be a AAA title like demanding. It might look very good in 5070 and above gpu at 1440p but its really heavy.

Probably one of top 5 best open world games in last 5 years, probably ranked 1 for me.
Cyberpunk 2077 is also in the same list, probably ranking 2nd because of no online co-op feature.

Refunded it long time ago. As expected, 1 year and no updates.
Small map and nothing good to do. Very mediocre game for its price, for the same price i can buy "Snowrunner" which supports 4 player coop/multiplayer/solo and have 100 times better mechanics, gameplay, graphics, i mean you name it snowrunner 100 times better in anything.

If they put the game on 75% sale, then only people like me will buy only for collection purpose.

Update - Nvidia Update 580.88 released on 31 July 2025 mentions fixing Dirt 5 crash on startup.
Looks like Graphics driver fault, not developers. Need to reinstall and check.

Cannot even launch the game to load main menu.
I played this game few minutes a year ago then stopped.
Now i want to play again, on same OS of windows (no format or system change) and cannot launch it.
Its commendable how a game which didn't receive update in last 4 years got bugged.
All the developers had to do was not do nothing so that people can play the game.

Purchased to give NEGATIVE REVIEW. Take my money, premium edition was not enough money for a failed game.
Look at yourself, failed to design, develop, distribute it, then want people to blindly buy addons after purchasing premium version. LMAO. DOUCHBAGS.

When i paid money for it, why its not available for free when starting the game?
why i have to pay currency in the game to buy it even 1st time? what a jerk move.
1st purchase should be free in the game store.

I think its a very good Hybrid of Snowrunner + Expeditions.

Steering wheel support is ♥♥♥♥, you cant open or remap menu/pause and Esc and F/Select/Enter keys on wheel, then its not a wheel supported game, these interns made this whole game testing on gamepad it looks like.
Gamepad/Controller = Good to go.
Wheel = get ready to keep hitting keyboard once in a while.

The first 2 maps will look easy, because they are just like introduction. After 2 maps, the real gameplay starts and its very time taking with solo. You need friends, a lot of backup from them and to them.

They have kinda fixed wheel support, which is what i use.
My gameplay with Thrustmaster TX and SF1000 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRhJPF6UAiI&t=1836s

The graphics are way better, specially at high settings native. The only problem is that you need to have mid-high tier GPU to pull this game above 60fps at high settings.


Gameplay is little kinky for cranes in terms of way more control keys to use while operating cranes.

This game can work like a pve project too where friends in a session just play to change the whole map look, chop trees, create roads, have fun with environment.

Ofcourse driving factor is present, don't count is as snowrunner, no its not that much, still more than enough.

The boring part is that there are lots of repetitive tasks in the game. Its like Build Road, Build Transportation Path, too repetitive, long and boring. Once you build roads, the talks become easier, after hours of building roads, the think i dont like is that the new roads looks different, way different. Its just a labour game.

Switching back to snowrunner maybe. Dont even want to finish story.

Pay to Whinn

Its a "YES" from me.

unexpected TRASH.
Graphics are LAME for 2023 released game.
This game is so annoying to play that i tried two times and couldnt play more than few minutes.
I have 9k hours in Rust and that game is hundreds of times better than this crap.
