so i can upload my gameplay vids ?? great

Can't you find some other place to upload them? Because by then everyone will be doing it Aren't there other sharing sites?

 

[kamspy]

why do i always get hurt by the ones i love

specially when they seem to think my country is in Europe or some crap

Damn. If I saw that today, knowing my game will be installed and ready to play when I get home from work tomorrow, it would feel like being kicked in the nuts.

That's some shit.

Oh wow, suddenly I feel better.

 

[Derrick01]

I hope nvidia gets their drivers out soon, or will that new beta one work? The one they uploaded a few days ago for the bf3 beta.

someone else who got treated the same way as me by ZM told me he wrote them and they told him it's ok to upload anything after the game comes out but before it comes out NOPE



fun fact : if i disabled the audio on my videos the company can't claim those vids and ask YT to remove them

 

[Snkfanatic]

Anyone else with a Amazon release date delivery order still waiting for their copy to ship? Getting nervous here

 

[Salsa]

I wonder what risks do i take by playing early using a vpn..

Use a VPN my friend

Was about to say cant you use a vpn for it, no idea of the risk involved, don't think they would ban you.

I wouldn't worry as it's a fairly normal occurrence for RDD items.

I assume everything should be fine since they support OpenGL 4.2. OpenGL performance has always been one of nvidia's strong points.

 

[Derrick01]

I don't know the risks but I wouldn't do anything even a little risky just to play a game a few days early. Patience has its virtues I'm told.

That's good news to me. Would hate for them to ruin my Rage day for me.

Haha, what? OpenGL performance - particularly on Fermi - has been garbage for nvidia lately. It's part of the reason the GPU specs are so heavily slanted towards AMD cards.

IGN gave it 8.5.

Closing Comments
Rage proves a lot of what we already knew about id Software. The studio knows how to make great shooters and deliver incredible visuals and animations. With some of the elements we’re not as familiar with in id games like an emphasis on story, Rage isn’t as strong. The great controls and useful weapon upgrades help make Rage’s shooting parts a lot of fun, but the storyline fails to create any real tension and the game’s characters, friendly and hostile, never do or say anything memorable. As a result, Rage starts to drag toward the second half after most of the mechanics and upgrades are introduced because the fictional world isn’t very interesting. Despite the lack of genuinely exciting context, all the content packed into Rage is still a blast to play, including the surprisingly entertaining car combat mode and co-operative challenges. Rage isn’t revolutionary, but is an expertly crafted, beautiful shooter.

problem is that this whole thing is an iffy situation, i mean i guess i'll deal, but i keep getting European release dates even though im in South America. Valve said this was a problem with each publisher, but that it shouldnt happen.

This works easily enough.

TERRIBAD, PRE-ORDER CANCELLED. I UPLOADED THE 21 GIGS BACK TO STEAM AND CANCELLED MY ACCOUNT.

I'm trying to scratch the megabytes right off my hard drive! Fuck this game!

10 for graphics guys! 10. That's the way it rolls. Though it is IGN, I will agree with them this once

Also the reason why this rocks, they basically state its awesome looking and move on to the fucking reasons it is FUN.

Been seeing quite a few Rage ads in NYC subways, buses, and taxis. Here's a pic I took from a subway station:

Can't remember any recent Bethesda published games that got ads like that.

7.5 Presentation
Incredibly high production values throughout. Storyline is weak, few memorable personalities, no satisfying ending, game starts to drag toward the end.
10 Graphics
One of the best looking games ever made.
8.5 Sound
Great gun sound effects and a high quality soundtrack and voice acting.
9.0 Gameplay
Excellent shooting sequences and a surprisingly good car combat mode.
8.5 Lasting Appeal
A lot of content in the single-player mode, plus co-op missions and a vehicle combat competitive multiplayer mode.

When is the GameTrailers review out?

Presumably after the embargo is up in 2 1/2 hours.

I am getting happier and happier as the reviews agree with what I have been seeing. So stoked.

 

[TKRunningRiot]

My google skills seem to be failing me....anyone know where i can find a list of Best Buy stores doing midnight openings for Rage/Dark Souls?

I guess this should have been expected but I was hoping this wouldn't be the case. Glad my purchase was delayed. Still want to play but at least I can wait for the price to go down now. I do wonder if this will be a theme for the rest of the reviews.

Brink?

 

[EvilDick34]

So where the hell is the OpenGL 4.2 driver from Nvidia?????

 

[Chesskid1]

lol guitar hero at :55

man it's so gorgeous.

 

[GeoramA]

Weak story and bad ending seem to be the only major problems?

Fine with me. Can't remember the last time I played a game and thought it had an excellent story or ending. Portal 2 maybe, but the humor carried that game a lot.

 

[Weenerz]

How big was the pre-load for this?

 

[Wallach]

lol guitar hero at :55

man it's so gorgeous.

That's id for ya. Nobody in the world understands graphics like the guy that heads up their tech.

How big was the pre-load for this?

~22 GB.

 

[DaBuddaDa]

I can't wait to blast the shit out of all ya'lls buggys come Tuesday night.

 

[Solo]

They dropped a major load.

 

[bloodydrake]

sounds like id could use someone like Ken Levine to join the team and they'd be unstoppable

 

[M.W.]

It's id. Who needs a story?

 

[Deadbeat]

So Quake 5 would just be a dumbed down Quake 2? How would that work?

When you spend so much effort building an elaborate and believable world it makes no sense not to have a great story.

They tried so hard with Doom 3. It would be funny if they failed again.

These are guys that consider each moment you are not engaged in some kind of actual gameplay a nuisance. A guy like Levine would not work at id Software.

 

[teepo]

games have great stories?

 

[Stallion Free]

Is that console footage in the IGN review video? If so, holy fuck, everything else just got destroyed.

 

[Vire]

games have great stories?

There's a difference between having a good story and having something that compels you to continue forward. If the tasks that you are asked to do have no greater meaning, or seem mundane, I could see it becoming a problem as mentioned in the review. Especially if the ending is as anticlimactic as they make it out to be.

 

[Deleted member 81567]

Can't wait for credible sources to post their reviews.

 

[EvilDick34]

I just know Rage is going to look like ass on my now ancient pc .

 

[M.W.]

Yep.

 

[MisterAnderson]

3 HOURS TILL STEAM UNLOCK.

HYPE.

 

[kuYuri]

Brink?

Oh yeah, completely forgot about Brink, lol.

I expect Skyrim to be like this.

 

[Chesskid1]

i probably wouldn't have completed borderlands if i had to play it SP.

hopefully the set pieces/pacing/gunplay/etc will make up for it since everyone is saying the story/missions aren't very good.

 

[bloodydrake]

I have no idea what your trying to imply

These are guys that consider each moment you are not engaged in some kind of actual gameplay a nuisance. A guy like Levine would not work at id Software.

I just don't agree it seems pretty obvious John Carmack's absolutely delighted to be back in the Technical directors chair doing what he loves.. Someone that clicked with them and had great story telling abilities would be awesome..not Levine himself but someone who's got that kind of gameplay vision.
