Art of rally is a really good game. Hopefully there will be also possibility to make own stages to game. Even developers stated otherwise about modding on steam..

 

[F_B]

Yes, track modding would be awesome.

 

[Kevin Troschinski]

I am glad this lovely little game becomes some attention.
First Time i played i directly thought mod support would be awsome.
Now i think track modding has to come.

The main problem still is - it’s bit to easy

BTW. Fantastic nostalgic soundtrack

Looking forward what the future brings..

try put your name on the top 10 leaderboard !
in solo it's a bit unequal, in maximum difficulty the group 2 can be very challenging, some other series are easier
and if it's raining you can be sure to finish 1st

haven't tried that new patch yet
wish they'd add some way to challenge friends

very fun game otherwise
and a fair amount of content and lifetime for its price!

I just love the game! It deserves more recognition i think..but anyway its a must for a rally enthusiast plus its just relaxing and pleasure to play it!

Art of Rally is the best rally game for me since the times of colin mcrae rally and colin mcrae 2 on playstation. Not everybody will like the graphics they choose, but this game is so much fun to play with a controller. Most of the time i have problems playing racing games again with a controller, but this one is just awesome in every aspect. The music could use a couple of different genres and a custom championship hosted by RD would be really fun.

There is another little indie game i bought at the same time as this gem, its called Lonely Mountains: Downhill, a mountain bike downhill game with same kind of graphics and same kind of fun.

PS: Did somebody else get totally excited for the lancia stratos and barely made the first rally with it? Twitchy little beast.

Wow, folks are wasting no time posting new liveries. What an awesome community and game!

This title has been in my Steam wish list for too long now...

Yep, grab it. It’s great fun and also challenging.
There are moments when you enter the zen zone and get every corner just perfect and then there are times when you want to destroy your gamepad.

10:90 in my case. Still it's addictive af

You manage that 10% of the time, WOW.

Honestly I'm pathetic at Art of Rally, and it's older brother Absolute Drift. Actually I'm pathetic at any driving game where I have to drive from "God's view".

That said I think AoR is stunningly beautiful and stunningly well executed. And, as I don't need to be good at a game, or even enjoy it to appreciate something special, I'll keep on supporting the dev by buying any DLC that comes along.

 

[TheRealCeeBee]

nice, hadn't seen this one yet, and better graphics than rf2!

Better load times too.

So the game only accepts mods from RD? How does the "exclusive" part work exactly?

Also it would be nice to include a link to the Steam page of the game. You've included the link to RD mod downloads twice and a separate link to the associated subforum, but not for the game itself.

That seems like some awesome sweet cars game.

Some see e34 rally in here, I see calssic 911 rallying here

Anything that's exclusive on here makes me slightly vomit in my mouth but hey, such is life.

 

[Sayoyo_01]

I made some skins for cars already, a pack of italian job car paintjobs and some more like initial d ae86 and a time attack bmw

Yeah. Wonder why they didn't just use Steam Workshop like other titles do for downloadable mod content?
