Thank you for watching!

the navigators voice sounds like the voice used in planes, you know the old caution terrain pull up! pull up!

[SneezingEagle]

Cheers! Look forward to the full review.

Congrats for 50k subs! Well deserved 👍

[akoshorvath-risko]

I'm definitely going to buy this. Also, the fact that the DAF 95 X1 is in the game might be the most exciting! I love that truck!

Ben driving into rocks and trees - obviously it's a habit from Snowrunner... 😂😁😇🤟

Been playing a couple of days and really enjoying the game. Finding the handling a bit twitchy at times but I haven't looked into tuning yet. The Saudi terrain is very cool and dare I say it more interesting than Horizon 5 that I also play.

Almost forgot to mention, always great vids coming from you! Thanks Ben!

My biggest problem so far is with the AI. they will happily get right in front of you or throw you of the road with ease. Another problem is the bikes which like to keep drifting forever no matter what.

When they add as much content as Snowrunner its gonna be a BLAST!

I bought this for my Xbox One and for the first time in a long while I am enjoying a racing game.

at 0:52 a two ton truck bounces of the off the bow of a little wooden dingy boat sending it straight into the bridge. lol

This feels like if Dirt Rally and motorstorm had a baby, it's fantastic

[Efreneldetaty]

Great video. ✌🏼😉 tire pressure setings 🤯

[TV-cveb]

It's pretty fun so far, but the physics need some work (going over a large sand bump at 200 kmph should net you dozens of feet of air, not 10) and the open world needs to be added asap. Other than that thing are pretty good, but i would love an upgrade system rather than just tuning

[salvador_manox]

Looks like a good Game, but the lack of vehicle modifications and customization is dissapointing, if the Dakar is famous for something is because you can RACE It in anything, It comes to my mind the R4 of the marreau brothers, the Suzuki samurai from accesoris Manresa. And the Peugeot 504 of "personal taxi team"

Maybe i miss motorstorm, maybe i want a offroad grand turismo, i should open a Game developer, but that's a bit out of my budget

[stuartleckie]

I want to grin like an idiot ! so, while I will wait for your full review, this taster certainly has me pretty sure I'll be getting it 🙂

[effisjens]

I've honestly been impressed by what i see of dakar desert rally and it's deffinatly interesting enough for me to consider getting it. It's just last gen console performance (i still use my base Xbox one) i''m a bit worried about as some people on a discord are saying it runs ok but loses FPS when you race with the others nearby

[dathyr]

If I don't do online play with this game or any of my racing games which I usually don't have the time to spend, and with only 7 tracks to race AI with and no 3rd party modding, I don't think this game is worth getting at this time. I do race in VR, so when that becomes available, I will see where the game is at that time.
I do have RFactor 2 and RFactor and enjoy both games in VR - plus much more content to choose from in these games. So for me it is a wait and see for Le Mans. Most the tracks in this game are also in my current racing games.

Thanks for the video review. Take care.

Let’s goooo! This game looks so good man! I can’t wait to pick it up.

Pros : It feels good when you configure the controller correctly
Its challenging
Cons : Game doesn't Save your progress on Xbox
Features that you want come out in 2023
ATV's Physics are broken and causes you to crash WAY too often. Its like the front of the quads are stuck to the ground and causes physics to go all GTA4 Swingset glitch on you.
Wut : 2CV is not meta. Audi eTron things go 165kph basicly the same as the ATV's and 2CV's. If you start in the back of the back and with the bike with sidepod the AI driving you at the time will try to hit the other drivers causing them to veer left into the starting line crew in a tent locking up the game.
