I don't know you faggits, but I'm looking forward to this game. Looks and sounds plain fun and a refreshing change from the usual (DOOM QUAKE DOOM QUAKE DOOM QUAKE LOLZ) ID bullshit.

BUT, consolitis seems to have taken its toll on the game. New screenshots and the new footage looks like complete 4 years old shit compared to the original footage released last year.

I'm looking forward to this for the same reason I look forward to all iD games: graphics. I'm going to overclock everything and set all settings to maximum and see how long I can maintain the beauty on my screen before the whole thing overheats. I'm looking forward to Doom 4 more than this though, this is just the intermediate tech demo.

Is RAGE still aimed for Ten rating? anyway Bethesda has grip on ID, so there is not much of hope for the game.

It's a multiplatform shooter.
From ID.
Which are owned by Bethesda.
With a T rating.

Does anyone really believes it will be any good?

wrong. it's owned by zenimax that also owns bethesda.

Fixed it right there for ya.


EDIT: Thats actually sad, I had high hopes for the game back when it was announced. I was hoping for dark and gritty post apo fps.

Eh, skyway's got it right this time. id have been good at nothing but tech demos for a good 12 years now. I was hoping they'd do the engine with Rage then pass it on to someone else to do Doom 4, but since they're doing that too I have little to no hope for either. Doom 3 was such a boring game and the engine appeared in such a small number of games it's hard to tell if it was really capable of good stuff.

Looks really cool to me. I love how the fp gameplay has been combined with vehicular combat. Long have I dreamed for such a combination, and if the game itself lives up to even half of its hype and plays as well as some of the trailers advertise it, I'll be a happy gamer.

Tell me, what makes it equal to Borderlands?

From what I understand, Borderlands is a cel-shaded, first-person shooter that also happens to be PA.

Rage combines FP and vehicular combat and is based on idTech 5 or whatever that is. You have to admit it looks amazing.

Are you simply dismissing it since it continues in the admittedly tired post-apoc setting?

Well, no.

I just really, really hate it, because it sidetracks the Glorious New Quake Live Maps Project. It's the only reason Quake Live has been in it's demi-broken beta stage for the past two years. It's the only reason updates for my favourite multiplayer game are few, far between, and largely meaningless.

It's this sort of (almost) irrational anger that makes one blind towards any possible positives a thing could have.

Although, in a rare flash of near-objectivity, i'd say the concept is wearing a bit thin by now, what with all the Stalkers, Fallouts 3, Borderlands and what have you. Vehicular combat and graphics may be it's saving grace, who knows. I sure don't, i hate the damn thing!

Once PA is out of fashion we'll be back to swords and sorcery, probably.
