Say what you will.......but my rig wasn't smitten by Zeus.......and it runs games fine

Nor was mine.. Just my server. Which btw, will be back up soon as Thor just returned with my brand new motherboard. A motherboard I didn't even have to pay shipping for, for the RMA. The god's smile down upon me.

I was looking for a great singleplayer experience something as good as Deus Ex HR, the design looks nice but i guess i can wait i got other games i want to buy out in the next week or so. No doubt Rage on PC will drop to like £20 or £17.99 like Deus Ex has.

Its not out till Friday in the UK.

LOL how many gigs is the proposed texture pack?

They do. It's called Etch-A-Sketch.

Did they let you have a gun yet at the academy or are you still learning to tie your hello kitty boots?

Please don't type while fingerpainting, you'll mess up you're keyabord.

Why in the hell am I involved in this conversation?! I'm supposed to be a senior moderator or something.

Anyways, Rage didn't live up to the "hype". When all is fixed, patched, massaged it will be an enjoyable game, this I know. Back to work for me.

I agree. Kind of sucks though paying 60.00 bucks and not being able to enjoy it fully right at the release! but, Life sucks than you die.

<chews on some dentyne> a broken console port you don't say

What gets me is it's ID SOFTWARE THE GODS OF PC GAMING (Pre 2000) and they give us this? it should be flawless on the PC from the release. We shouldnt have to wait for a patch. That is a huge letdown I am experiencing from ID & Carmack.

Mindweaver · Oct 4, 2011

erocker said:
For such a hyped game and glitchiness aside, this game is mediocre at best. I'm honestly not surprised, ID really haven't done anything good since Doom 3.. and I really didn't think that game was all that great either. I have no idea why I bought Rage.

You should rebuild it in Mindcraft! :rockout:

You could call it "GAYge" but it would be the opposite of rage.. Your graphics would suck, but erockers story would live on for ages! :roll:

Latest AMD Rage hotfix drivers (that work) for DL: http://www2.ati.com/Drivers/hotfix/amd_catalyst_rage_performance_driver.exe

I tested them myself, and performance is good now, no more flickering or glitchy rendering.

Mindweaver · Oct 4, 2011

Carmack will fix all of the pc issues and release it on linux! :toast:

For free!

Thanks Erocker! I must try these when I get home.

I wonder how bad multi-platform releases are going to be when the Wii U launches next year.

It depends on popularity. The Wii is so popular because it's simple. Many of the games are simple and the controls are simple. This made things popular for the "traditinal non-gaming" consumer (older folks) and they're the ones with the money. Wii U looks great for a gamer and the younger crowd but I'm not so certain it has the same appeal to the other demographic.

Also the Wii U is to be vastly more powerful then the 360 and PS3 so if anything its a GOOD thing the Wii U is coming. We might start to see some better games ported over.

BumbleBee · Oct 4, 2011

another platform means more time, work and probably less attention to the PC.

That's very off topic... but I think it will stink... Pii-u... hehehe Ok I have to get ready to get out of hell.. I hope they fix this game cause i want it very bad.. but i'm glad i didn't get it before release.. Hopefully the price will drop and i can get it. :toast:

EDIT: Here's some Rage tweaks! :toast:

BumbleBee · Oct 4, 2011

I think it's relevant. I don't know if people noticed but if a game isn't delayed it's usually broken. I wonder how much worse it can get and when will it end.

Mindweaver · Oct 4, 2011

If someone would send me the INI file I will make a Config utility. I'm waiting till after BF3's release to put out the BF3 config utility. So, this could be fun until then.. What do you guys think? anybody want to post there ini file in here so i can get it?
