Holy shit this game is fun!

Last nail in the coffin of fun? No sway on sniper rifles.
[url]http://www2.ati.com/Drivers/hotfix/amd_catalyst_rage_performance_driver.exe[/url] fixed driver for ati, previous hotfix had old ogl files, not tried because rage isnt unlocked here but on guru3d people say these work very well
I just played for 22 minutes and I have to say, with the ATI 1110 update the slow textures dont really bother me anymore. The only thing that bothers me is the screen flickering and tearing.
Anyone got a fix? I heard forced Vsync will do it but I have no idea how to do that on the ati 11.10 catalyst control center.
one way is to use radeonpro to make per game profiles
Hopefully there's a sale on Christmas. I'll get it then.
Anybody have a link to the song in the opening? It was pretty kick ass.
I'll just post the theme song in the mean time.

So. Has the game been patched? Is it worth buying at the moment or waiting intill it's on sale?
it hasn't been patched yet
it's also not worth 60 dollars despite being a kind-of-sort-of decent game. the only reason it gets praise from me is because there's nothing else that's decent out right now so it has a decent timeframe for release but the gameplay is shortlived and worth no more than twenty bucks because the MP components suck ass
No the game hasn't be patched. I think they won't patch it until Europeans get it.
You know, apart from the horrid way of handling textures, and no graphical options, the gameplay is quite fun and pleasantly rewarding, I have had fun launching wingsticks off surfaces into bandits heads.

if your using 10.10 for bf3 just place the contents of this in the rage directory [url]http://www.mediafire.com/?u8153rflr4y7war[/url]
Just got multiplayer working. The co-op is actually pretty hilariously fun and can get intense. Although it's so damn hard to find a co-op buddy that will actually start the game. The car combat is ok but kinda hard to control IMO. Will probably just take practice to get used to it.

Also, anyone know how to make it so it doesn't look like you're shooting your gun with your teeth?
Am I the only one not getting graphics problems? Game runs fine at 60 fps, no graphics issues. I'm using a NVIDIA Geforce GTX 560m card.
No issues for me either on an Nvidia GTX560. I just had to turn on vsync in the nvidia control panel. Really fun game.
I don't have any DLC folders and I preordered months ago.
A few questions about the very beginning:
[sp] Why couldn't we destroy the meteor if we can cryogenically freeze a bunch of people? Why did some not survive the freezing? By some I mean most. You're the only survivor in your batch of people. Why do the bandits look so weird?[/sp]
Initial thoughts.
Fun BUT loses point for
1. Unskippable intros
2. "Press 'Enter' to start"
3. Can't adjust FOV
4. Texture pop
5. "Saving game. Please do not turn off your computer"
6. No mouse look in vehicles
7. Invisible walls everywhere!
An id game with all of the crappy console port stereotypes? For shame. Please patch this shit.
Notes on initial thoughts:
1. This one is especially silly. If you try to bypass getting in the car right at the beginning of the game you DIE. Then selecting "Load from last checkpoint" takes you back before the unskippable intro cinematic. Nice.
2. "I am a console port!"
3. Remember Bioshock, Far Cry 2, Borderlands, and every other big-name shooter that was released without adjustable FOV? Remember how they all patched it in later?
4. Not as annoying as some people are making it out to be. It's only really noticeable during dialogue when there isn't a whole lot of motion going on.
5. "I am a console port!"
6. This might just be personal preference, but after playing GTA with full mouse look in vehicles, it is so annoying driving with a fixed camera.
7. This is just bad design. Which small piles of rubble can I jump over and which are impassable?
All this stupid "Its bad because you can adjust graphics" and "It sucks because it sucks" kida thing is nosense. I played it WITH graphical bugs and still think thats its amazing. One of the bast games this year. Its long, has a lot to do, a lot of people to meet, great combat, a nice story, and quite a bit of depth. One of the best things in the last two years. (Really last year cause 2011 has been a tad slow for good games)
One HUGE negative point, I dont seem to have a world map. Or any option for a world map.

Destroying a meteor the size of Manhattan would be ridiculously difficult.

Thank you :D Do you have any more magical .DLLs that will stop slow textures?

[QUOTE=RichyZ;32633462]you can fix pretty much everything with config files, still doesn't excuse the laziness and the horrible low res textures[/QUOTE]
Can you fix slow textures from the config files? If you can, how?
Did Id talk about any SDK? If they did the 60 bucks would be much more worth it.

You can still change it's route to earth with enough power, that way it might miss earth
Use spoiler tags you cunts.
Atleast for a week.
[QUOTE=scratch (nl);32633951]You can still change it's route to earth with enough power, that way it might miss earth[/QUOTE]
That would be the best bet but even then that would require a lot of energy to push it far away enough to miss.

The meteor is in the first video and it's been in the trailers. It's not a spoiler.
You can literally read the back of the box and find out that a meteor hits the Earth. That's the basic plot, it's why there's a wasteland in this game. Not a spoiler.

uhm previous id games have had both the save messages and the pressing of the enter or esc key to start the game.
Previous id games aren't blatant console ports.
[QUOTE=zombojoe;32634240]Previous id games aren't blatant console ports.[/QUOTE]
It's mostly tech stuff that feels like a console port. IMO the gameplay still feels like Id, albeit a little slower paced.
[QUOTE=zombojoe;32634240]Previous id games aren't blatant console ports.[/QUOTE]
you mean previous id games weren't specifically made for the consoles like john carmack said ages ago when he said he was focusing on unified development with the making of RAGE.
i don't know why anyone would be upset with the simple lettering of PRESS ENTER TO BEGIN. it sounds very childish.
so you don't really know if the game was ported from consoles to PC because john carmack said that wasn't the case. i guess you know more about the development schedule than they do.
