StrangeGuy_3000 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 This game is showing up as free for me in the deals section on PS5. It doesn't say it's a demo or anything, says it's the ps4 version of the game - does it currently have a free trial going on or something? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShotgunSquirrel Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I was wondering this too. I'm downloading it and it looks like the full game but it doesn't seem to be mentioned anyway which makes me think it's possibly some kind of demo.... but it doesn't say that so I'm confused.

Accursed_Chocobo Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 (edited) On the web store it states "trial" Edited March 31, 2021 by Accursed_Chocobo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShotgunSquirrel Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Ah, thank you. It's on that it doesn't state it anywhere on the actual store listing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a common move to "force" people to try it not knowing it's a trial and then be more suitable to buy it. Add the current sale to the equation and profit 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaladinZeke Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 It states "Trial" in PS App too... so no luck this time ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dry Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I remember being fooled like this with Mass Effect: Andromeda two years ago on my previous account. It looked like a store error at first but then upon starting the download my system notifications displayed "Trial" in brackets next to the game's title. It's now The Last Supper April Fools in Australia and New Zealand so that could explain the supposed bait or perhaps it's just coincidence.

chickenbaltipie Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I just did this and got the jump trophy? From the trial. WTF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance_87 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Maybe it's one of those trials where you have 60 minutes but you can do pretty much everything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be the 1st time in my unjustified existence I get a trophy from a trial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valberSP Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 For security I played on another account and I have more than 3 hours of play and 26% of the trophies. Something very strange happens. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncanmcleod Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I'm installing it right now and it weights almost 50Go ... Aren't trials supposed to be lighter ? Unless we can only play a couple hours on it before it gets locked somehow, but why allow to install the whole package then ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjise Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Dirt games are notoriously infamous for their enormous size, so not surprising to see such number, Winning trophies in a trial, that is a first, I wonder if this is planned or if someone at Codemaster messed up at something?

djb5f Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Perhaps you can earn the platinum from this “trial” after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastMinuteSavior Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) Being a timed trial, shouldn't there be a timer under Information on the game's app? Because there isn't one. There's a similar discussion going on Reddit. One guy says he was able to finish the whole career.

RustyZero Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 interresting... thanks for the info I noticed that once "purchased", the game is no more labelled as 'trial' in the library and the store, Also the URL is containing EP4001-CUSA16194_00-FULLGAME00000000 I can't access my ps4 for now, so lets wait and see!

Ac3dUd3- Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Some interns gonna get the blame for them uploading the full game instead of the trial lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_blur_98 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Dunno how interested I'd be in this (I usually prefer arcade-style racing games over more sim-like titles) but I added this to my account because... well... it's free. I'll probably make a dummy account to test how much you can play with this "trial" and if I even like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iBroke-Bad Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) Always getting an error when i try to add it to my library Edit: Couldnt add it on my main account, where i already played the retail version. Was able to add it on my second account though Edited April 1, 2021 by iBroke-Bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirt Rally is the more sim-like series, mainline Dirt titles have always been more arcade/casual friendly. People who played it even say the game feels very in line with the Motorstorm games (part of the former Evolution Studios team worked on this game).

You don't have to create a demo when you could do that. It could even free for just a couple of days at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAS2in1 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 probably it will not work since it's 1. of April.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
