So you guys that still have it, are you still having trouble with it?
According to carmack they are releasing a patch soon that will make textures look better upclose?

I wonder if developers will try to do unique textures throughout the world like this in the future. I'm not sure of another game that has done this before. To me, the way I look at it, it's kinda like when N64 came out and 3D started becoming big... in my eyes things looked horribly blocky/blurry and overall not as good as the current 2D games... Rage kinda reminds me of that time, where a new form of tech comes in that is technically more advanced but looks much less detailed. Like it's maybe ahead of it's time... not sure how to explain that, but that's how I'm feeling. It wasn't until the PS2 era that I got more into 3D gaming...
They should really post that high res pack for one level, at least just to show us how much better it looks. Maybe as a teaser for what Doom 4 textures will look like?
Does anyone know of this rumor about a 100gb texture pack being produced for the PC version?

Rage is HIGHLY moddable like Doom 3, right...?
So a fully-fledged RPG mod is only inevitable, right?
The game is so much fun. I like the game, the control is so smooth. Especially when play with a 360 controller. Killing and gunning feel so satisfying.
They definitely nailed the control. Have a look at the video, it is from a PC gamer

i'm still looking for that texture pack that was in the doom 3 pic on page 35
In regards too rage i feel the gtx 580 3GB cards play the best since they have all that extra ram for textures. Perhaps rage is detecting that the cards don't have enough ram to run the visuals very well?

This is probably the best review of RAGE I've been able to find:
http://www.ag.ru/reviews/rage_2011
Doesn't matter if you understand Russian: the review is quite... intuitive.
Same, but the textures are still trashy. Trash as in blurry and something out of a 6 year old game.
Its silly playing a fps on the pc with a controller. Thats like playing a guitar with my feet.
Driving is the only time that makes any sense at all.
I'm enjoying the hell out of playing the game with a controller, too.
Like the guy in the video mentions, it's just like playing what would equate to an "Xbox 720" or whatever they decide to call it right now.
With the patch installed, the up-close textures are still ugly, but then again, they're ugly on the consoles, too. The PC version still beats the hell out of both of them handily...and it cost me a whopping $10 less than either one, too. Plus, if I want to play with a KB/M, I can without any problem at all.
I'd say some of this is coming down to PC folks wanting something special that the consoles don't get, and I think those days are coming to an end for a lot of developers.
Technologies evolves, so does ways of playing games. I can feel much of development effort poured into tweaking the controller gameplay. It just feel so nature/smooth.
I also can't keep vsync enabled which is driving me crazy.
Sure, but even if that's not your cup of tea, the KB/M still works fine, too. Mouse twitch aiming is always quicker, so I use mine here and there for parts where aiming really counts.
The nice thing is that the current batch of PC game support both rather well, and many even have a totally unique UI depending on whether you want to use the KB/M or the controller...or even both.
The PC version of Rage essentially has everything the console version has...plus more. Our version cost the same (or less depending on where you got it) and you get everything the console versions have, so I fail to see some of these complaints.
I'd rather have a glitchy game on day 1 than to have them delay it (a la Batman).
Face it, the PC is the #3 platform at the moment (sometimes #4), so we're not always going to get special treatment. That's life. We still almost always get the best version of everything.
That's right, we still have the best version of games. Yet, there are 4 millions people complaining about Rage. I just don't get it, the game is already patched now. Does texture quality really that important? Most of the art development effort, as far as I can see, is devoted to make scenes artistically beautiful, but not technologically stunning. All my console gamer friends like how the game looks.
You are right, PC is the fourth gaming platform. Just look at how these stupid PC gamers complain about everything. If I were a game developer, I would make games on Wii, 360, PS3, or even iPad. At least gamers there are fucking grateful !!! Heck, just look at how they complain about BF3 beta. You guys are destroying the platform not the developers!!

yup...I keep referring to an article from a few weeks ago titled "In gaming everything is amazing but no one is happy"
http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2011/09/gaming-everything-is-amazing-and-no-one-is-happy.ars
some of the best games have come out for the PC over the past year or 2 yet no one is ever happy and all they do is complain about petty things...Kyle rips Crysis 2 and RAGE and takes an almost morbid joy out of constantly bashing them (even after they have been patched and updated with high-res texture packs and DX11 features)
Yahtzee, as always, has put it best:
"Yes, there are games I like, games I love, do I want to play a new installment of the same thing every few years? NO! The fastest way to spoil your pleasures is to make them routine. Variety is the spice of life and status quo is the starch. The star that shines brightest is all the more glorious for its brevity, or to bring this metaphor down to a broader cultural level, The Simpsons has been running for 21 seasons and hasn't been good since the fifth."
That's what these games are: competent but bland garbage, games that take no risks and push no envelopes. Games that don't have a single original idea through their entire lengths. I would rather play a shit game that at least brings something new to the table than another uninteresting brown-grey first person shooter with ADS mechanics. It's just insipid, like eating nothing but plain Triscuit crackers for all eternity, quite edible, but crying out for something more. It flabbergasts me that people can still be content to keep playing more and more of this legion of mediocre, unoriginal fuckpoop games.
Try playing Arkham City next week, then tell me about how fun and interesting Rage is.
yet the most popular games are the same repetive ones like BF3 and CoD ...what unique games have been released recently?...Witcher 2?...nope...seems like you have your mind already made up about Arkam City before playing a minute of it...Arkham City is Arkham Asylum multiplied by 5 (and that's meant as a compliment)
RAGE is unique in its own way...people are 'raging' about it for it's graphics issues moreso then the gameplay...people that have actually finished the game actually enjoyed it for the most part
where are all these unique games that you have been playing?...I would love to play them too...seems like you were just giving us your version of gaming utopia versus actual reality
