Honestly, the game is boring. I had a better time playing Fallout and Borderlands.
[QUOTE=Fhux;32620092]Anyway, I'll try to find some money later, it's not out until Friday anyway, for me.[/QUOTE]
Thats why I said buy SR3 :P, RAGE is definitely worth the money if you have money to spare.
That doesn't say very much, I really loved both Borderlands and Fallout.

And that's why I said I was gonna see if I could find some money later today :v:

What I'm saying is you're better off just playing Fallout and Borderlands.

Awesome.
6 More Hours.
6 MORE HOURS HOLY SHIT.
An amazingly malaysia follows the us release.

So instead of buying a new good game to play, that reminds me of some other great games I've played, I should replay the games I've already finished multiple times?
[QUOTE=Dorak;32619054]Games run like shit on ATI.
Remember BRINK. OpenGL and ATI being poor.
If you have an ATI ( lol ATI ) you are in a deep shit for the moment.[/QUOTE]
Yeah I said this was gonna happen and hordes of ATI fanboys descended with NU UH.
Simple fact is ATI is very slow about these things, they have a small team.
I have two 3 gig 580s and the game runs relatively great, esp draw distance and textures without a specific driver update, because nVidia is a lot more on the ball in terms of broad OGL support.
Drivers ATI for RAGE [url]http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/GPU121AMDCatRagePerfDriver.aspx[/url]
so what from i am basically hearing, it's old fashion runnin and gunnin type game with good ai, but there really isn't a plot that is worth knowin about
I wish I had a glass that could contain all the pc elitist tears being shed over the internet, cries of IT IS A CONSOLE PORT just because of a few bugs and glitches (major ones but still)
Patience clearly is a dead virtue.
Looks like most of the performance issues are because the game actually doesn't create its own dynamic cache file like it's supposed to.
You'll have to make one in the same account that you have RAGE installed to.
X: XAccount/XUser/appdata/local/id software/rage
You also have to set fc_maxcachememoryMB XXXX in an autoexec.cfg text file, where X is about half your ram. Pow. Instant framerate upgrade.
CPU priority is also auto set to low, has to be changed after you launch.

Is it working? Really?
[QUOTE=Hamsterjuice;32618194]so did any of you dudes buy yours off ultimatum games? i'm thinking of buying a copy but i want to know if they're sending out their codes yet[/QUOTE]
For those who bought this game on Ultimatum Games you will receive your key in 2-3 Days. Just got done talking to support.
Kinda sucks but from what it looks like its pretty buggy at the moment.
[QUOTE=Csokis;32620357]Is it working? Really?[/QUOTE]
People with 4 gigs or less are reporting about a 50% performance increase with no other tweaks.

Or it's because id almost always work closely with nVidia and mostly ignore ATI, and obviously not even test it on enough ardware leaving ATI to fix the problems themselves on release.
I mean, the exact same thing happens for some games with nVidia. But when it happens to ATI for some reason it's ATI's fault?
Whenever it does happen to EITHER companies, the problem is always fixed, pretty quickly. So considering they're VERY capable of fixing the issues, what makes you think the issues are their fault when the fixes come along so quickly?
It's entirely id's fault and not ATI (or nVidia, depending on the scenario).

How do you create a cache file in the folder you mentioned? (name + extension?)
Why exactly is it, that my computer makes this game crash before it will even play?
5 more hours before they release rage here. :v:

I hate it when people do that, blame it on the make rather than the game itself, ATI works fine for games and people are ok with it, but as soon as a NEW GAME comes out it's obviously the problem with ATI when it doesn't work properly on that NEW GAME.

Umm yeah it is. The ARB standard has been for some time, and Splash Damage had to wait, and so did id despite the specs and codebase being readily available. Do you see a day one patch for nVidia equipment? No, you don't. Carmack said this was going to happen and it did. It's cute to see you jump on the bandwagon again like the good old days, but this was a known quantity, and it played out exactly as the dev said it would. ATI has a much smaller team and it shows. Simple as.
So...How's the [b]gameplay[/b], guys? I'm not surprised it has visual glitches, it's the first day the game's been released.

Turns out it's the engine misinterpreting some people's hardware setups with ridiculous values such as a 3mhz CPU and 0 MB of VRAM.

"Imagine Borderlands with the fun stripped out, or Fallout without actual choice, characters, or consequences. None of the game's ideas are thought out or fully explored, so the game feels like a series of dead ends in a world that is hard to care about, in which you play a bland character doing boring things against stock enemies using weak guns. I only finished RAGE because I was paid to do so, and the process was a struggle; the game never presented me with a hook to continue playing."

Not exactly difficult to do.

The enemy AI and animations are brilliant. Everything else including the weapons, are absolutely generic. The 1P wep anims are also ass.

[QUOTE=Fearendon;32620444]How do you create a cache file in the folder you mentioned? (name + extension?)[/QUOTE]
name the folder "Cache", no extension. The game will start writing files in it immediately.
Even with all the things people say about this game, I'll probably still like it. Hell, I absolutely loved Vivisector.
I have no standards.

I'm not surprised, when you try to make a system that automatically sets graphics options based on a person's computer, there's bound to be problems.
That's why I'm waiting on buying it. My computer has two graphics cards, an nvidia and an integrated one that switch off depending on what I'm doing. With my luck it'll detect the integrated card on setup and I'll not be able to run it at all. I've had punkbuster problems because of it as well.
So are there any config files to manually set graphics options? I really have no idea why they'd not have the option to just set it manually.
[editline]4th October 2011[/editline]
And whatever happened to all the people who say "It's not the graphics that make a game fun, its the gameplay" I guess that only counts for some games and not others. And yes I know that a big selling point was the tech, but I, quite frankly, don't give a damn about the textures. I just need to know if the game is fun.

See above video. Not to mention, it's just fucking wrong, PC gamers aren't dumb, we should be allowed to set the graphics to what we want.
