Support NeoGAF

[Nethaniah]

Yeah, of course; just not on my own rig personally as I'm still using an older Samsung monitor--it would be moot otherwise if it wasn't 120 Hz! I'm the type that's personally fine with a flat 30 or 60 FPS as long as there are no fluctuations with 60 FPS being preferable. Anything above that hasn't really been noticeable to me.

No problem, i know people that are the same way and think i'm a nitpicker when it comes to framerate, to each his own.

That must be really hard for you. I'm sorry.

It is, still did not stop me from completing it though.

This is the ending of Rage:

Everyone deserves to see how bad (non-existent) it is.

Kinda makes you wonder if all those years spent on this game they were really just only building that engine, what a waste.

RAGE is fucking great and y'all better get it

best first person gunplay in a while, and the enemy AI is fantastic

just.. forget about the ending

Isn't this the case for nearly every game?

Especially true for this gen.

Spec Ops: The Line, The Walking Dead, The Last of Us, and Red Dead Redemption all had exceptional endings, in my opinion.

 

[Dec]

It also has terrible, terrible DRM. So no, you really should not get it.

Which is always a big shame every time I see it on sale.

Ya it's a real shame. My wife loves 1404 so I got her 2070 and even she has been complaining about it. Takes forever to actually get in the game.

Played the 360 version...enjoyed it well enough but it's not something I'm compelled to replay.

 

[feel]

Yes, real question. Anything beyond 60 FPS doesn't really do much for me, honestly. I think there's a certain point where the gain I get from FPS just plateaus. I just think some people are more sensitive than others in terms of frame rate; I guess I'm just not one of them.

Your monitor is likely to be a 60hz one and you're only seeing 60 actual frames per second despite your pc be pushing more if you're saying this. The silky smoothness of (true) 120fps in something like a Valve game is really hard to miss.

120 fps on a 120Hz screen can be pretty damn weird to look at.

I just can't..

 

[JaseC]

That RAGE scorchers DLC is like $1.25. Any good? All I really wanna know is if it let's me engage in more combat, which was definitely the best thing about RAGE.

Then the DLC is for you! It offers around half-a-dozen quests, at a handful of new locations, that revolve around the titular enemy clan.

I bought FTL for someone months ago and i'm fairly certain they're never going to redeem it and aren't interested. So if you would like a gifted key of FTL that's been around the block and seen some shit this is your chance.

I still find it bewildering that id, of all FPS developers, would end a game without a boss fight.

In Rage, the people you fight for are called 'The Resistance' and the people you fight against are called 'The Authority'.

I mean, how lazy can you get?

 

[Mugatu]

Anyone know what "Partial Controller Support" means on Rage?

I played it on 360 with controller and would probably play it the same way on PC if possible.

EDIT: Found the answer on steam forums - game can be played with controller but you need m/kb for menus.

Erm, I think I know one. It's based around the idea of some rats that has gone bad.. Or something like that.

Forget about Bad Rats, this man is right, it will make him go insane. That's just how bad it is. Watch TotalHalibuts WTF is... video on it It's hilariously bad.

All I want is to become level 5 by the end of the sale. I've visibility completed 14 Pillar of Community tasks, and others which haven't even been updated. I somehow still don't have my 100 XP for the level 1 badge, which would bring me to level 5 so I can get my cards for voting.

C'mon, Steam

Honestly, that game's not terribly bad. If you want a joke game, get him something like Revelations 2012.

 

[BoosterDuck]

Rage's guns are so meaty and satisfying to shoot. And the sound effects are crisp as heck.

It really makes me hopeful for Doom 4 or another id game to come out

 

[antitrop]

Well, it doesn't really feel like iD in any way other than weapon feel and shooting mechanics.

I get motion sickness half the time, especially from id games, so I should count myself lucky

It'll say that if it doesn't work immediately upon launching the game. Like if you need to activate it in the menus first or something.

Bought the Scorchers finally. I double dipped on the PC version of Rage awhile back on disc (it was $6 at the time and the game size is huge), just needed the DLC.

Buying this.

Just read on the steam forums that the game doesn't use the controller in the menus but you can play the game with it.

 

[Caerith]

Excellent in that it isn't a piece of garbage like the second game but struggling with my hardware to reach a stable 100-120 fps on medium? Yep, that's a mediocre port alright especially considering the stuff it's actually putting on my screen, other much more graphically intensive games run better.

I believe most people only say that it's an excellent port because of how bad SR2 was.

I didn't play SR2, so I guess that completely invalidates my enjoyment of SR3.

 

[antitrop]

Megatextures, bro.

 

[FlutterPuffs]

Have to ask again. Can someone get me Dark Souls? It's not available in Malaysia so I can't buy it through Steam. I'll trade it with you a game of equal value (or paypal)

Thanks!

 

[Stimpack]

Rage is 19 gigs. Jesus.

It's only going to get worse. Speaking of, is anyone working on new kinds of compression methods? It seems like we're going to reach a point here in the next few years where things just get ridiculous.

 

[PKrockin]

Rage is 19 gigs. Jesus.

Doesn't sound that bad, earlier I tried to download the Uncharted 3 I got with PS+ and it was 40 gigs. The fuck.

Rage is about shooting stuff. That's it. And it does the shooting stuff really well. Sure, phantom ending and stupid... well it's not even a story, really... it's just a thing... well anyways yeah, Rage is about shooting stuff, and it is fantastic about the shooting of stuff. If you want stuff to be shot, Rage is a game for that. It's good fun for what it is.

 

[JaseC]

Anyone know what "Partial Controller Support" means on Rage?

I played it on 360 with controller and would probably play it the same way on PC if possible.

It typically means that either there's a launcher lacking controller support or you need to enable controller support manually in the options menu, but, if memory serves, neither apply to Rage. You can most certainly play through the game just fine with a controller.

 

[Nethaniah]

I didn't play SR2, so I guess that completely invalidates my enjoyment of SR3.

I thought i was pretty clear in the way that i worded my posts that i was not in fact talking about the game itself but rather the state of the port.

But the problem is that so often you're not fucking shooting anything, and that is why Rage sucks.

There are also games that let me shoot stuff and have good writing/dialogue.

Many games, in fact.
