Would you mind posting a screenshot of the kill room in the first cave at the beginning of the game? I'd like to see the body pile on a "friggin awesome" system.

Not really. He's just aping Chernobyl baby'sfavourite shit excuse to whine about graphics instead of discussing any actual gameplay elements. The 'there is no gameplay' is about as interesting and valid an argument as calling everything a 'shit popamole'.

So I'm pretty sure we'll see it used here constantly. Way to go kids.

Shit can have all the shaders in the world but it would still be shit. Judging games on their visuals is weak. Why? Because who the fuck plays a game for its looks? Gameplay is what actually makes it fun. Graphics are merely an element. Not THE element.

But who the fuck am I kidding here. This place has been exposed as graphic whore central quite some time ago. Fuck that.

Running this with a AMD HD 5870 1GB with Catalyst 11.10 preview drivers and no rageconfic.cfg changes. Just the standard stuff with Vsynch on and Texture cahe LARGE (8K pages). Virtually ZERO texture popping.
If you want 16K pages, you can, but it looks identical to 8K pages. So whoever says you need a video card with 3GB Vram is a dumbfuck.

Some people are gonna say it looks like shit, but it's the same people who also say Quake 1 and Doom 2 are fun and graphics doesn't matter etc.

Tell me more about health regen and slowass 3-4 enemies per 100m - I've never seen gameplay like that in every other console shooter of the past 5 years! Let's discuss about how after getting shot you sit behind a box regen and continue to shoot! Tell me how awesome game Rage is so we will discuss health regen and enemies that barely move for 1000th time!

But graphics = unimportant even though it's the only thing that differs in console shooters.

No it just has retards who think that having good graphics - especially in shooters, which is a genre that is all about graphics - is a bad thing.

Trash tell me about how you enjoyed the gameplay of Crysis and how you played it because of its great gameplay. Its gameplay looked good isn't? Especially on a very high... difficulty, yes?

You could just... ignore the game?

You're trying to talk sense to a guy who has been continually shown to be full of it and yet keeps pretending to be some kind of authority. He's living proof that every moron who shouts often enough will be taken seriously by some.

I like how the first two posts after Morgoth's screens just reinforce what I said. Whining about shaders, textures and AA is teh new shit. Fuck that.
What else is there to whine about? Rage's actual gameplay mechanics? :?

You're right. Let's talk about Quake 1 instead. I really like the brownishness in that game.

Or let's talk about Fallout 1/2/3/NV: I really like the brown shitstains that cover the whole monitor in that game too.

I could. But you know this is CARMACK, a TEKNIKAL VIZHINARY, which means his game pushes PC GAEMNG forward

I never tried to pretend I'm an authority. Where? On the internet lol?
I only see morons crying about "skyway pretends to be an authority" just because I bash a game once in a while.

Fallout 1 and 2 had good gameplay, atmosphere and an awesome RPG system. Does Rage have them?

Games in those genres are being released every month and all play the same, especially turnbased RPGs, wargames and flight sims, please go on.

Well, can anyone name one redeeming aspect about the game play? Other than saying something generic and loaded like 'it's fun!' From everything I've seen it's arguably worse than Borderlands.

Who says it needs to be redeeming? Discussing something other than shaders does not mean praising something other than shaders. What the fuck is it with the thickness here?
