No you aren't an idiot. Its only $10 for a decent single player game.

I'm not giving id anymore money tho heh. In fact I specifically didn't buy rage because of their horrible botching of the QL project. Would rather spend the $10 on indie bundles and shit anyway, more entertainment value in them -_-

yes

I still can't play it due to shitty AMD drivers. Hopefully you have an NVIDIA card.

lol, i have played the game in the week it came out...
AMD 6970
just need to change 2 or 3 commands on the config. and install the latest drivers

AMD 6970, i7-860 @ 3.2GHz, 4GB RAM, and a good SSD.

I tried different drivers, config settings, etc., and still had horrible texture pop. Good to hear some people got it working, though.

strange, did you change that stuff on the config, because one of the problems with rage was that it couldn't identify the amount of vram, so that would result on severe texture popping. need to manually set the 8k/16k textures and the amount of vram iirc!

If it was one of the suggested fixes in the first couple of weeks, I tried it. The last time I installed the game (~2 weeks ago) I didn't make any config file changes, though, so I might try again and do all that stuff.

i think the ssd is here the keyword, short loading times on the pc is the best way

idiot

Running an i3-2100 and HD 6850. Theres ADM probs?

that should be fine, perhaps edit the config and force the game to use the 8k or 16k textures. Should be easy to find with a quick google.

Ok thank you Sir

now you'll have to buy a lightgun to play it.

Same, bought it in the id pack for 50euros 2 weeks ago and here it is : game has strafe jum yes but it is useless since outdoor is very small, full off cutscenes and cliped invisible walls, the game itself is super ugly (yes thats right textures are ULTRA ugly (i have GTX 680 top notch shit), even Quake 1 with texture mode is 100x better) it is caped at 60 fps but nvm. It forces to play at 60hz?! wtf so im forced to play windowed mode to have 120hz. Every cvars are locked, yes thats right, even r_displayrefresh is locked since last update and zoom toggle is cheat protected. Multiplayer is dead. Game is ultra boring.

In short : its a console game... made by idsoftware. Thats not just sad but makes me want to fucking beat thoose bastards. I file betrayed, i feel they lied to us and threated us like shit. id's glory time is over and, what is left is a reminicent shit hole.

Rage!

Just facts.

Update: After logging about 5 hours, i'm sort of into the game. For the first 3 or 4 hours I really didn't see myself continuing it. I didn't know it was going to be so super scripted, map-restricted, etc. I wanted it to be more like fallout basically. But the graphics are stunning, the weapons are kind of fun I guess, so I'll keep playing but I'm definitely not fucking amazed by this game.

Update 2: I am not going to finish this game. I just got to the subway city, did a few missions there, and its unbearable. ITS SO BAD.

It might be the worst game I've evern played.

How can something be that bad?

that's the feeling doom3 and quake4 left me, so I didn't even bother trying rage.

I'm blown away right now at how bad this game is.

So you agree then? You're an idiot? :D

? I found it quite good. I played on max difficulty, but anyway i found it quite entertaining.

No multiplayer fun?

Hello, my name is sk4ut, I bought Rage to support QuakeLive indirectly, and I'm an idiot.

i didnt finish the game, but i thought ID did a decent job. clearly its a nice looking game, theres a fair bit of varied content.

i thought the guns were really great though, they had a very solid feel to them that many games dont have.

7/10 for me.

7/10 ? Good Lord....

I won't even buy it for 5 $ since I wouldn't play it anyway

played it up to around first big boss or so, had some fun at times, but all the high action segments are still worse than in Q2 IMO, not mentioning painkiller/bulletstorm

i didn't even pirate it.
