RAGE |OT| "It's done when it's done"
- Thread starter Salsa
- Start date
Waat? Rage continued to pre-load through the night, even though I was getting the error before I went to bed.
Come to think of it, when right-clicking on rage, it said "pause pre-load" even though the window was open and sitting at 0% with the button "continue".
Perhaps there is an auto-retry system that's just not visually communicated?
None the less, about 60% done, yay!

You guys -surely- wouldn't be suggesting that because a website is given the exclusive first review, that website is going to give a high score in return for that exclusive?
Come on now. I'm a fan of conspiracy theories as much as the next guy, but this is video game websites we're talking about here. Their integrity isn't bought.

Oh, now I get it.Mastperf said:
It isn't quite like that. The big websites will get review copies quite early and complete the review, then submit their score to the publisher. The publisher, based on the score and other various things, then will choose which sites they'll allow publish early. Of course, this results in almost always seeing 8.5s-10s for early review scores.spirity said:
I expect this game to fall in the 8-8.5 category on average with the press. The things that will bring it down I bet will be people having a "been there done that" type of feel if they compare it with Fallout, and it'll probably receive some knocks for its multiplayer component.
For those that have played how well do characters react to your actions? If you completed a mission will random npcs still comment on it while you are still the area but several missions ahead? How populated are the settlements with NPCs?
Are you ever locked out of going back to areas once you are done?
How different are the various difficulties? Enemies just take more hits or does the number count increase? Does the game have waves of enemies that you have to force pass ala Call of Duty during missions or do they stop coming at a certain point allowing you to take your time in missions instead of rushing through them?
In general, without any details or spoilers, how is the story? Structured well? Not that important? Pulls you in?
Overall is the game worth the $60 price in terms of gameplay, story, content, graphics, length? To you of course as this is going to be different for each person.

And Borderlands. I'm interested in Rage but from all the videos I've seen I definitely get the "been there, done that" feeling.

The key difference being that the public at large have played Fallout 3 and Borderlands.
There's no denying the similarities, but given Rage's protracted development cycle (~7 years at least) and id's seemingly clear vision for the game, I doubt the aforementioned games had much of an effect on its overall design.Littleberu

Furthermore... unlike those three games you just mentioned, RAGE is actually fun to play.54-46! said:
