ijed, are you saying games with such objectives are not fun? Most games boil down to mechanics like that. The wrapping might be different. 

I'm in between classes right now, so I decided to see if I could get rage to decrypt all of the way; I press 'play' in steam, the decrypting window pops up at 32% where it left off and it's done in 5 minutes :p. On my thinkpad, on about 75% battery I was getting about 35fps in the very beginning of the game (I saved and quit once I got my gun from hagar). The opening dialog with him was somewhat awkward, I'll have to wait until I get home to play some more. 

But those kind of clunky mechanics were pioneered in Breath of Fire and the like, its stupid that it hasn't been improved.

Although I haven't played Fallout, I did play the Witcher, which was supposedly a modern RPG with all the awesome modernness.

It has the same crap going on - 'I can't talk to you yet because you didn't talk to another guy'.

Not a lot to do with Rage, which is why I highlighted on the 'weak shooting'.

And it seems it's having lots of technical problems as well?

Is it fun Zwif? 

What gives you hope the current id software has learnt to make good games ? Rage seems to be a stinker, at least when set against what id should be able to achieve.
Great tech, shit game, Doom3 again...

Looks like cashgrab theme and design, consolisation etc.
Maybe to fund a decent Doom4 on the new engine, that would be the day...yeah, hope, we always got that eh.

When are you #tf chaps founding an indie company and bringing us a truly awesome old school new tech FPS ?

What's the reason for slow texture build ?
I've had it with some Far Cry games too, but the benchmarks always say my card is alright.
I use a GTX 470.

Anyway, this is really bad though. 

I just saw that clip was recorded on a laptop though. But there are some other bad ones around. 

Nice, bler. I will tweak some of those when I get home.

By good I mean they thought Rage was good. 

...on the other hand it all means that we're going to start getting good OpenGL drivers from ATI/AMD again. Well, "good" so long as your program does the same kind of stuff that Rage does, of course... 

Well, no Rage for me, thank you Ati\ID.
Just watching streams playing it and its ok, but not amazing. 

also lol @ Killes strikes back
some things never change 

oh and
objective/obstacles
challenge/reward
basic old shit and it works, its how you implement it - thats whats important

when i'm trying to play the rage
and after i've set antialiasing other than none/disable (2x,4x,8x, 16x) the game is crashed to desktop. does someone know how to solve that issue?

my videocard gtx470, with 275.33 drivers 

Try updating your nvidia drivers to the current beta 285.<something> release.

i fixed that issue by turning on vsync on nvidia control panel, but antialiasing still doesnt work it crashes to desktop 

any lags, the game runs smooth and fast as wolf2009, whis is surprised 

HAHA that's awesome. I wish they made that start level area look 2011 though. The way it looks there I might as well just play Quake. Still awesome though. 

The Doom and Wolf easter eggs are also available - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ybq3yfL2L9I

Quake is of course the best, but I didn't need to say that. ;) 

Spy, I had that same problem with MoH 2010.
And good to hear it runs well on the GTX 470 !

Nice to see ID hasn't forgotten what made them big ! Love the Quake start secret !
