Carmack is spending a lot of time bemoaning how long it takes to make a game now.
I think the only solution is engines. Look forward to even more Unreal 3/4 domination in the future, basically imo. I mean not for Id obviously, but in general.

Cant blame him he is a game journalist.
It's hard to say without knowing more about Rage than we do. I guess Borderlands is the nearest comparison in scope, I don't know how much it cost, Take Two tend to be pretty good about strongly getting behind a project they green light in terms of budget.TommyT said:
But Rage's budget would also include the construction of idTech 5, that's an investment that'll reduce the cost of generations of id titles, probably more of ZeniMax's studios, so it'd be unfair to compare it's production with Borderlands.

Nice second dev doing it if they keep their promise.
Cliffy B said so after Gears 3 they wont release a game again without dedicated servers now let the people also rent server plox.

But this generation doesnt have much left so...I guess they'll use it on Doom 4. But then it'll be on to Id tech 6. Two years?

Dont know i think he will keep Id tech 6 for when he thinks hardware is good enough to support voxels.

":lol and why is that?"
Because there's nothing substantial to it? It's not a competitive FPS game mode, it seems to me like it's mostly co-op and vehicle stuff. I'm like #1 Dedicated Server champion and even I'm not bothered by this.

Vehicles don't demand the same precision that FPS games do and Dirt 3 with 8 players was completely lagless. Dedicated servers would just be wasted there.

If anyone's interested, there's a live stream of some QL matches here: http://www.own3d.tv/game/Quake+Live. You can also watch on http://quakelive.com.
Edit: I suppose two posts referencing the stream doesn't hurt.

I hope this is the general attitude that will be had with it.
- I'm trying to convey some more thoughts/reasons behind it but can't do so without getting myself in trouble. So I'll just leave it at that and a general questioning of what people interested in RAGE are thinking of the MP.

Doom 3 source code release could be nom nom for modding. Sikkmod was already awesome enough as it was.

So haven't caught up but guess what steam now has. Doom & Quake package on sale and it Includes Quake 4. Nice to finally see it getting the love it deserves and being included in the package. They didn't even include it in the Summer Sale package.
30 bucks for the pack which includes over 15 games.

"How much could have possibly cost to build?"
Well they're hosting all the servers and storing player stats.

If their business model doesn't bring in enough to even support it running, it seems pretty flawed. I see plenty of ads on the service, it even has forced fifteen seconds ads before games.Teknopathetic said:
It's a shame it hasn't been a hit for them, it was a really bold move I thought.

There was Doom 4 news, just not a lot. Carmack confirmed there is an active dev team and they are looking at 3 year cycles for all new releases. He stated some of the RAGE devs were being allocated to Doom and some to Rage 2. He almost spilled the beans with some more info, but held back because of Zenimax legal and because he didnt want to endager the Doom 3 source release.
