I was not placed back on to the road automatically. Firstly while taking part in the first rally I ran off the road quite severely, so much so that it took a good 10-15 second for me to get the car back on the road. While playing Colin McRae 4 I did run in to some problems which are small but they did disrupt the game play somewhat. After getting accustomed to the new handling the car will obey your every move. You might have thought this would make Colin McRae 4 more difficult and in some ways it is - until you understand the physics of the car. In these situations the car will look to move a little awkwardly on the road with the weight of the car shifting around just like it would in real life. If you do make this error it isn't quite so easy to rectify as previous games, because once you are moving forward with the brakes locked you will also get a bit of a surprise when you release the brakes, the car will usually produce under-steer making it a little harder for you to make the corner after your first driving error. Should you apply the brakes mid corner at the wrong point the car will carry on moving forwards without turning.

For example if you don't apply enough power in a slow corner the car will under-steer. Now Colin McRae seems to have made some progress in this department. Colin McRae and most other rally games for that fact have been very biased to producing great over-steering cars, but they have never really exploited the negative effects of under-steer. Previous Colin McRae rally games never, in my opinion, replicated all the effects a real car has under certain conditions. Now this pivot point (driving aid) has now been removed and the results are noticeable. As you increase the number of new parts on your car, your performance will be enhanced helping you to compete in the forthcoming rallies of the championship.Ĭodemasters say that the old Colin McRae physics engine had a driving aid which had the effect of the car moving around a central pivot point. If you're taking part in an engine test you will have to complete the test successfully in order to gain the new part. These mini games are tests that take place in various countries and each will be different depending on what part you will be testing.
