Yeah I just hope its not prone to Wolfenstein 2 syndrome. 20 mins of cut scenes, long load times and short gameplay bits. That game really bored me off (Wolf 2). I did enjoy the first Rage I ain't gonna lie. It was like a cross between Doom III and FO3.
They trying to out-Borderlands Borderlands?? Get outta here, Bethesda - we all know you aint' got it in ya any more...
It is being made by the guys responsible for Just Cause and Mad Max, the developers of Wolfenstein II luckily have nothing to with it.
Apparently it is called Apex (their own proprietary stuff, so unfortunately it is impossible to guess performance or things like ultrawide support).
Ah well that is a relief. They kinda got away with it in Doom (even if the load times were atrocious) with the mazey level design but it was pee poor in Wolf 2.
Another one I could have absolutely sworn there was a thread for but search can't find it... RAGE 2 is due out on Tuesday May 14th 2019 on Steam (and Bethesda Launcher), Xbox One and PlayStation 4. It's an Open World, first person shooter, this video explains it all! site | steam | bethesda | ps4 | xb1 | twitter | facebook | instagram | youtube
Thank you! I was sure there was one, but I don't think search ever works for me because it never finds any thread I look for. I did manually look at a few pages, but I didn't go back a year! I'll merge these in a bit!
Bit of a weird game starting out. Graphics seem blurry but I think this is intentional. The further in the distance objects are the less defined they become. Thankfully combat is a hoot! Saying that the default keyboard layout is ridiculous. Currently re-configuring my mouse buttons so that I can play the game in a more quick fire fashion. To give an example, activate a static shield press 'CTRL' and then the 'C' key... whilst at the same time navigating the world with W, A, S and D! Just ridiculous. So the 'CTRL' key is now routed to a side button on my Logitech G602 mouse that supports specific game profile configurations. Probably fiddle with these some more so all my superman powers are configured to the mouse!
I just tried that, and it's super-cramped - though, to be fair, my Control key is where most people's Caps Lock key would be.
Baffled by the design choice to pause the game mid-fight to consume the screen with a thermometer progress bar! Really irksome when I'm in full flow battle skit!
Just installed this and eventually got it working ( make sure you have the latest gfx drivers btw) aaaand.... its ok. Its exactly the same gameplay as Mad Max in my opinion. Its ok, nothing to write home about and will keep me occupied until something else comes out. Also as everyone else is pointing out, the keyboard settings are ridiculous. I need to remap to my mouse to make it more comfortable as that CTRL combo is just not intuitive at all! CTRL+r is impossible to do whilst running around!
