deanb Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXLLN58qqjg Trailers and such creeping out.tbh I'm looking at it for idTech5, not really into the game myself. It might be fun, but as far as I know it's a regular FPS just with a very pretty engine under the hood. Though I have heard that it's meant to be kinda open-worldy type. So I dunno. Maybe folks want to fill me in on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Rat Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 I am curious about this game, but Quake 4 and Doom 3 are reminding me not to get excited about upcoming id games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staySICK Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 I enjoyed Doom 3. A lot. It really started getting me back into PC gaming. I'm looking forward to seeing idtech5 in action, but also looking looking forward to the game in general. Car combat, open world, almost an all out rpg, John Carmack... totes can't wait.

excel_excel Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Damn trailer's been taken done > anyway yeah, it may look all lovely and shiny but it better play good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanaEquiesterer Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Slightly on topic: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Another reason why I love John Carmack. I worry that Rage will be overshadowed by Borderlands. I can already hear reviewers comparing them to one another and fans decrying Rage as a Borderlands clone. I know that Rage is going to have some RPG-like elements, too, so I hope it can do something to further distinguish itself from Borderlands in that respect.

Pirandello Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Dang, I wanted to see that trailer. Oh, well. I honestly don't put Rage up to Borderlands. They may look similar, but they play differently. And I think I'd rather prefer Rage's simple FPS mechanics to Borderlands' RPG-style numbers-damage game.

AgamemnonV2 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Yeah, like I said on Kotaku, hopefully we can fiddle with the saturation bar to add some color to that world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovach_ Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Eh, i don't mind the grey, grey world. I remember seeing some screens few months back tho, they were pretty colourful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm different. I like it when my game worlds have color. Otherwise I lose interest in it really fast. Prime example being Borderlands... ugh.

Faiblesse Des Sens Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 If grey fits a world and its look then I say use it. Though yeah Kovach is right, there have been screenshots/videos that have some color going on. Considering it's a "dead" city I'm not really sure why anyone is expecting color from that area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, this. It's not like you're expecting Birds of Paradise in Dead City anyways. Also, http://www.rage.com/en/media/screenshots here are the screens from the official site, they look pretty colourful to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovach_ Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 New one. It has colour, cars, spiderbots, and a guy playing on a controller on a PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted May 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 Okay, when you said "Spiderbots" I was expecting somthing a bit bigger n more impressive. Much much bigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomTervo Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 I'm not too interested in this game, but I like a couple of things. I like the physics engine. It's almost like Euphoria in that guys will prcedurally fall over and recover from shots. has a very improvised feeling, which is always good. I also like the idea of taking the TF2/Killzone multiplayer Engineer class and basically implanting those skills into a single-player game. It's a good diea, the dynamic planting of turrets and little mobile tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staySICK Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 I'm super interested in this game. The whole bit about devs getting smacked if they were seen using a m/kb for controls is off putting, but I'm still wanting to give it a try.

The whole bit about devs getting smacked if they were seen using a m/kb for controls is off putting, but I'm still wanting to give it a try. My interest in this game just diminished significantly. Sad thing is, if it's a shitty PC port it's just going to continue the cycle: 1) Dev makes shitty PC port => 2) PC players don't buy it cause it's not good => 3) Dev says "PC players aren't buying our games, we'd better not put much resources into the PC versions => 1)...

staySICK Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 Ah, here we go: " 'We don't let them use the mouse right now because the largest chunk of our market's going to be on the consoles,' says id co-founder and technical director John Carmack. 'That's actually a pretty strict dictum around here. Tim will go around and whack your hand with a ruler if you're using a mouse playing the game. I mean, yes, you can use the mouse for it, but it's critical that the controller be the way that we design the game.' " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovach_ Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 That's fucking stupid. Carmack, the older you get, the more you suck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted May 14, 2011 Report Share Posted May 14, 2011 That could just be because its harder to make FPS controls on a controller work great whereas it's easy on PC and this studio has plenty of experience with it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P4: Gritty Reboot Posted May 14, 2011 Report Share Posted May 14, 2011 To me, that pretty much guarantees it's going to feel all wrong, no matter what else it has going for it. Halo 1 on Legendary was a frickin' cakewalk on the PC, because it was (obviously) designed for a gamepad. Targeting a gamepad throws a whole host of gameplay elements out of whack on the PC, just as targeting a WASD setup exclusively would mess up its implementation on consoles. Ugh.

SanaEquiesterer Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 (edited) John Carmack recently tweeted this link to a The engine looks good, but some of the environmental textures seemed a little weak and the lip-syncing could be a bit better. The shooting doesn't look too different than Bioshock at this point. Having said that, there is no indication of what system this is running on, so the textures could potentially be better, and then they don't show any of the racing/car combat parts, so it still has room to make the gameplay stand out among the crowd, I think. Love the Doom and Quake references near the end. Edited June 3, 2011 by SanaEquiesterer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
