Hello,

I really did wait for Rage for years, one of the very few games i focused on. After installing and playing it on release day i was pretty dissapointed, because it was the most grafic-bugged game i ever played. But already just a day later they released the first AMD-Vidcard patch especially for rage. From this time the game was palyable, but u still saw the textures popping. Finally yesterday the first gamepatch was released and the game is fully playable now for me.

I had problems to get a mental connection to the game, but after i played the mission in the city of deaths i finaly found into the game.

Now i can say the game rocks.

Please keep in mind, the game is eating ressourses like hell. With my current system it is really no problem. But I also tried it on my old system too (Q6600, 8GB DDR2, ATI 5770) and i had to set the textures on low to play it fluently, but the grafic was still awesome.

All you need is the AMD Vidcard Driver especially for Rage and the latest gamepatch. (About nvidia? no idea)

Hmm, interesting... Now i have doubts about resources Sigh

I haven't tried the game yet. I was little bit frustrated after reading a lot of negative posts about Rage. Most of all were about textures.

Still wanna try after this comment. Soon-soon)

please?

There is a drastic difference in graphic quality and in details:

Boarderlands (unreal 3 engine):

Rage (id tech 5 engine):

(beside that boarderlands is in comicstyle, the difference is simply groundbreaking)

your borderlands screenshot is from a promotional art poster and is a drawing, not taken from ingame footage, so not even to compare them like that mate.

Borderlands

Rage:

I didn't get screenshotsm i just googled cos no photoshop here. Also your forgettin that Borderlands is a 2 year old game, hence will not look as impressive. Apart from that, the differences in settings (post apocalyptic wasteland), weaponry, some vehicles and even plot points are subtle but many.

mcl!

Quotes:

So many people, apparently born about four years ago, don't realize that the post-apocalyptic genre existed before Borderlands or Fallout.

Comparing the latest game in an established genre to the last game that came out in that genre is not interesting or insightful.

"Oh this new racing game reminds me of the last racing game that I played. "

So what??? Who cares?
IF you were literally born two years ago, then Borderlands might seem "ground breaking", but if you think for a minute, you'd realize it is just ANOTHER shooting game set in the post-apocalypse, with Diablo style loot.

Furthermore, peoples attention span doesn't really last long these days. I'm surprise they even remember Fallout and Borderlands.

Are there any RPG elements in Rage?

actually not, if than very trivial ones, like tuning ur car or getting more armor, you can buy ammo and such stuff and modified ammo, but nothing like leveling up or so.

Borderlands + Fallout 3 = Rage

It's no negative point to me, I am looking forward to playing that game, it has been done by Signore John Carmack <3 (and its team).
I feel a bit bad about how this game has copied cards from Borderlands, post-apocalyptic side of Fallout 3. But tha's what we all do : copy your competitor, improve your release c:
