I tested them myself, and performance is good now, no more flickering or glitchy rendering.
Still having issues with Slow loading textures? I am assuming that is engine related and not going to be fixed until a patch is released.

True.. but that's what i like about id games so much.. is the fact that they let you have access to those files and the console.. Everyone can say console port all they want, BUT they gave use the drop down console to tweak settings.. That is Id... They could have been like every other console port and locked the console from us... I got to get out of here.. later all!

Didn't they give out a full range of mod tools as well?

I'm still going to wait for a sale to get the game. I really do want to play it.

True, However it shouldn't be a console port anyways. They are messing it up for us PC gamers. id should be the first to understand this as they are the grandfather of PC gaming.

Well, you also have to abide by the unwritten rulebook of the internet.

Unless it's been to your house, it has a penis.

My development system now has twenty-four threads and twenty-four gigs of memory, and we can start putting on half a terabyte of solid state drives, and these are the things that are gonna drive the development process on the PC.
Holy shit! Carmack has a dual Westmere, dual Magny-Cores, or quad Lisbon workstation.

That's not exactly your average gaming computer...

*waits for the awkward male female banter that always starts up once gender has become established*

So what's the low down on this game? Is it a fun shooter worth freeing up space on my HDD for?

Noob. You gotta keep up with these things man. I guess when you're a big balla like yourself you don't have to make educated purchases. You just buy and if it sucks you rant and uninstall.

1. RAGE was designed from the ground up for consoles.
2. RAGE is not an iD game as you would expect.
3. RAGE on the PC was a secondary development.

All of these things have been common knowledge for some time. Even Carmacks realization that consoles suck has been known. RAGE in all essence is a cash cow for Zenimax. Nothing more. Ill be buying this game when it comes down in price. But you gotta be honest here man. ME.....TheMailman and his borderline unhealthy infatuation with Carmack did not pre-order this game. That should have told ya something.......other then I'm broke. Because if I thought this was a true iD game I would have been straight necking crackheads for money to buy it.

Sorry I don't find you credible or make it a point to read every single post you make. In the end, do I really care? No. Is it remotely important in regards to other things in my life? No. Haters gonna hate I guess. I'm playing the game now. AMD fixed their drivers and the game is okay. I've made much, much worse purchases.
