DooM_RO Posted September 28, 2011 With less than a week till RAGE ships I have to say that I'm very hyped about this game! Everyone from IGN http://pc.ign.com/articles/119/1196567p1.html to a guy who got the game early http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/942657-rage/60448168?page=8 says only good things about the game.They especially praise the atmosphere, shooting mechanics and how well the racing part works. I have to say, I had my doubts about this game but now I can't wait to play it :D.Only a few more days till 4th of October.Also, if someone wants to play coop with me when it ships PM me P.S DooM 4 will probably be developed with next gen consoles in mind!And it is reported that the engine is "Eye-destroying" http://sillegamer.com/?p=3562 KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS STILL JUST A RUMOR By the way, if you preorder the game your copy will automatically be Anarchy Edition which includes the double barreled shotgun! 0 Share this post Link to post

DooM_RO Posted September 28, 2011 kristus said:It's using the same engine as Rage. Yes, I know but Carmack said DooM 4 will look 3 times as good as RAGE http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/doom-4-three-times-rage-visual-quality .He also said that he would continue improving RAGE's graphics even after release and hinted multiple times that a super high res texture pack is probable 0 Share this post Link to post
kristus Posted September 28, 2011 All that means is that they will be going for a lower target refresh rate of the rendering which allows them to get more detail and visual fidelity in. 0 Share this post Link to post
DooM_RO Posted September 28, 2011 That's only for consoles http://www.maximumpc.com/awordfromoursponsors?destination=article%2Fnews%2Fquakecon_08_quake_live_will_have_no_mod_support_doom_4_run_60hz_pc_locked_30hz_consoles 0 Share this post Link to post
kristus Posted September 28, 2011 Oy vey. Yes, on PCs there are a lot more customizability, which will allow for people with faster computers to have faster refresh rate as well. Thank you for pointing out the obvious. 0 Share this post Link to post

Bucket Posted September 28, 2011 Well, I'm sure it's technically true. Id isn't known for releasing unstable games with showstopping bugs. Now whether the game is "enjoyable" is less of a sure thing. 0 Share this post Link to post

Xeros612 Posted September 28, 2011 Because Doom 3 wasn't Doom 2 with 2004 graphics, therefore everything they touch can't be trusted because Doomworld. Of course, there's also Tim Willits and his "always-on DRM is great! Also, fuck used games" attitude. 0 Share this post Link to post

TheEndOfUs Posted September 28, 2011 It doesnt have to be the second coming, as long as the game is fun. The guys who got the game early say its good anyway. 0 Share this post Link to post
Quast Posted September 28, 2011 DooM_RO said:Why are you people having so little faith in Id?I mean they invented the FPS, they made DOOM! ID has been riding on the coattails of doom1/2 and quake1/2 for almost 15 years and has done little to nothing of value since then. (although some may argue for quake 3, I won't. That is to say, I might, if team arena was never developed.) In any event, rage may very well be a solid game, but no one should take IGNs word for it, and certainly not 'OMG it's an ID game guyz!' either. 0 Share this post Link to post

BilboHicks Posted September 28, 2011 Sigvatr said:I'm such an elitist gamer, I don't even play games. Funny. I'm pretty much the same way nowadays. Mostly due to jadedness. Though I finally fired up Crysis 2 recently and finally got hooked enough to complete it (its blockbusters), and thus inspired I also finished Resistance 3 (great game & series, but hard due to clear all enemies first stuff). Now looking forward to GOW3, Dead Island, and now of course Rage. I still get sucked in by the epic campaign FPS occasionally. But I find it has to be fantastical (not COD stuff). 0 Share this post Link to post

But I think that's stating the obvious, unless those are true opinions. Even then... Yes, it's a joke. However, those thought processes have been expressed many times before, on many gamer forums, even on DWF, but never composed into a single piece of data, making them seem "retarded". And you're right. They ARE retarded. It's so retarded that it's laughable. Yet, take each question in that flowchart alone and you will find post after post on forums (even this one) with these same viewpoints. 0 Share this post Link to post

I was being sarcastic and pointing out the crappy logic many Doomworld members like to spew about Doom 3 being "bad". I definitely don't want Doom 4 to be made like Blizzard made Starcraft 2, though. Shit quality art style(like Blizzard adopted for fucking everything since WoW), rebalancing for lower-ranked players, nerfing zerg into the ground... ugh, that'd be horrible for iD to emulate. 0 Share this post Link to post
