I don't know about you guys, but it runs ridiculously well on my laptop. That texture pop-in is pretty noticeable in large areas though, although I don't exactly give a damn about that.

Finally some sweet 60 FPS gameplay.
[QUOTE=markfu;32625604]It seems the vast majority of complaints are on the technical standpoints and some wonky design decisions (not allowing us to manually set graphics options).[/QUOTE]
So far it ALL boils down to id tech 5 being dynamically scaled but the scaling system needs tweaking. I can almost guarantee that it will be fixed in a patch or two.
This game won me over COMpLETELY. I really wasn't expecting much at all, but it's turned out to be the first FPS in ages that FEELS right when you play it.
Heh heh. Feels right.
Crash upon launch. Fuck. Verifying game, then going to try defrag.
I've heard the PC graphics are poorly optimized, but I haven't heard those complaints about the console. How does it look so far? Ars Technica or whatever that website is called REALLY didn't like the game.
Its weird. I was one of the only people ere not hyped for thi game, and now I'm one of the only ones satisfied with my purchase :v:
I dunno, swefox sounds pretty happy.
It depends on what you're looking for in the game. If you want a gripping narrative, well, I haven't played much into it yet, but I don't think its going to be a Deus Ex: HR in the story department. The fighting mechanics are very solid though. Enemies move around a lot when they need too, and I had a moment when some ass with a lead pipe dodged my bullet by rolling under it. Graphics are good as well, although of course there are the problems with the auto-scaling. Hopefully they'll add manual-scaling for those with problems. The only thing I'm worried about is game length because I've heard the main quest itself is pretty short in rpg standards.
I'm expecting enemies that don't sit on their ass waiting for you whilst playing monopoly then pop in and out of cover repeatedly untill dead.
I'm such a huge fucking noob. Im very early into the game, I get 2 quest and sell/buy some shit from a shop..go to do a quest and die. I reload to the latest point and it is right before I get the 2 quest. I redo everything I just spent 3-5 minutes doing...go out and die again. Finally, I said I'll remember to quicksave this time...I do not and die again.
I just wasted like 30 minutes because I am a retard. Need a break before I even get started lol.
Any way to edit the FOV yet? It's obviously set to the console standard of 60, and it's uncomfortable as hell on my 23" screen.

How did the low FOV fad begin? I don't see why console games need to go away from the standard vertical FOV of 75.
These should be the proper AMD drivers: [url]http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/GPU121AMDCatRagePerfDriver.aspx[/url]

Smaller FOV, less stuff to render. At this point the consoles are running on such old hardware that every little bit helps.

Edumacation for the masses.

YES YES YES. NO MORE TEARING YES.
[quote]1# How To Disable Mouse Acceleration
If you find yourself out of the place with the default mouse acceleration in Rage, then disable it by following the workaround. In all the previous ID Games mouse acceleration has been present by default if you have ‘Improved Pointer Precision’ checked in mouse hardware options, try unchecking it.
If that doesn’t work, open the Rage config file, and change the value from ’1′ to ’0′. m_smooth is the command that you would find in the console and setting it to 0 will disable mouse smoothing/acceleration in-game.
2# How To Enable The Developer Console
You will need developer console for various tweaks and workarounds, so it is better that I walk you through how to enable it at the start. To enable the dev console enable the console add +set com_allowconsole 1 to your Steam Launch Options.
This will enable dev console in-game, which you can access by press ~ button below ESC. listcvars and listcmds should show you available settings, have fun tweaking.
3# How To Change FOV in Rage
You can either change FOV to your liking through developer console or by editing your default CFG or you can add the command in your launch options. If you choose to do so through dev console, it will disable achievements. Using developer console disables achievements so use it in absolute necessity.
If you want to change the FOV through console, bring it up in-game, and use cvaradd command to change the g_fov variable. You can add or subtract fov values from the default 80. For example, cvaradd g_fov 15 will result in g_fov 95 since you added 15. Similarly, cvaradd g_fov -15 will subtract 15 from default 80 value and the resulting g_fov will be 65. I hope you got the point.
If you don’t want to mess up your achievements, you can add these values in your default config file, which is located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\rage\base Or you can add these values in your launch options.
4# Horrible Rage Flickering and Artifacts Pop-Ins
If you are experiencing flickering and large artifacts pop-ins while playing Rage, you should probably roll back your drivers. If you have beta drivers installed, they don’t help either. Switching back to old drivers may help the cause.
5# Rage ATI Fixes
If you are trying to play Rage on your ATI video card, there are few things you should know:
Force the game to start in best performance mode, disable the 3D application control. Disable the Catalyst AI. Roll back your drivers.
Rage is experiencing conflicts with drivers resulting in bad overall performance – forcing these settings may improve performance for you. If you are concerned about messing up your settings, try giving Rage Hotfix drivers from ATI a shot, if it resolves your issue, you don’t need to do any of this.
6# Can’t Launch Rage
If you can’t launch the game on Steam. Logout of the Steam and log back in, verify the game cache and re-try. If it still doesn’t work, relaunch the Steam as administrator and try again. It may also be due to the customized settings you are forcing through your nVidia or Catalyst control panel. Get rid of them all and try again.
7# Rage Lag Fix
Disable Steam in-game community feature to resolve the lag issue, if you are among those facing it. Right-click on RAGE in Steam -> properties -> uncheck ‘enable steam community in game’.
8# ATI Flickeri1ng Fix
Download and Install 11.8 ATI drivers to fix the issue.
9# Rage Crashes (ATI Hot Fix)
There are two things you can do to resolve the random crashes that occur when you try to play Rage. You can disable tripple buffering in your ATI Control Panel and install Rage Hotfix Drivers.
10# How To Fix Screen Tearing in Rage
Rage by default doesn’t allow you to enable Vsync. If you are experiencing screen flickering and vertical tearing on Screen, you can force Vsync through your graphics card control panel, be it Nvidia Control Panel or ATI Catalyst Control Panel.
11# Crashes To Desktop – Rage Stopped Working
If you can’t get into the game and it crashes you to desktop on startup. Try this – If you get the black screen, have to Ctrl-Alt-Delete to get to the ‘Rage has stopped working’ window, try removing the ‘video’ folder (rage->base->video). Make sure you back up the folder for worse case scenario.
12# Rage SLI or Crossfire
Rage doesn’t support SLI or Crossfire, so don’t bother. It would only make it worse.
13# Rage Textures – Nvidia
Install the latest beta drivers if you are experiencing bad and cluttered textures in Rage. It will most probably this issue on high-end machines. If you are on average PC, try rolling back the drivers to 235.38 and see if that helps.
14# Rage Textures and Bad Graphics – ATI
Try downloading the latest Rage Hotfix Drivers and see if that helps. Most of the people have complained about these drivers but since they have helped few, trying won’t hurt.
15# How To Fix Rage Stuttering – Nvidia
Force v-sync through Nvidia control panel. Enable GPU-transcode in-game – if you have high-end GPU for faster streaming of textures.
16# Fix Slow Rage Textures
Download Battlefield 3 Beta drivers since they seem to have fixed Rage’s slow texture streaming for a lot of people.
17# How To Fix Rage Textures Popping
Some players suggest that disabling AA and transparency AA in desktop control panel will fix texture issues and improve FPS. Worth a try!

Um, I read like 3-4 things saying the default FOV was 80 and changing it will disable steam achievements and other features.
Did they come out with a radeon update for vista or am I screwed because I don't have 7?
FPS is also locked at 60, which is fucking bullshit. What about us assholes with 120Hz monitors.

I'd like to add that FOV can be represented in different ways. Classic FPS games in 4:3 aspect ratio usually use numbers that represent the horizontal (left to right) degrees that can be seen on the whole monitor. Since the screen is wider than it is tall, the number of degrees seen from top to bottom is around 75. Some game have the FOV programmed to display a certain amount of vertical degrees instead, making a FOV of 90 look distorted on flat monitors. Minecraft is a good example of this.
[QUOTE=Supacasey;32628983]FPS is also locked at 60, which is fucking bullshit. What about us assholes with 120Hz monitors.[/QUOTE]
Doom 3 has a limit of 60 too, but I believe a console command can remove it.
What should I do guys? Still not sure about this game.
