Rage looks

I'm looking at Rage and I'm like- there's no way a game these days suppose to look as it does. I mean the design is good, really is, but the textures.. sheesh.. like a 5 year old game. Some tex' look better, they all do from far, but all the tex' around you are really bad, actually as I recall they don't look much better then the tex's from doom 3, and I don't care about people who say id did it that way or another (graphics tech wise). The end result is that it's bad. I like alot of the other stuff, but it's just a disappointment, can't believe it's id. Running it on all the highest options, have the latest patch, most latest nVidia drivers (285.62) and enough horse power to back it up. Any mod there or a cfg tweak? sorry for the b*ching ;)

id were concerned with the size of the game (physical media and downloading). It's massive enough as it is.

However, the next patch should improve the graphics.

Rage is sadly a console game that's also on the PC. Not the other way around. The game was designed for hardware that's older than 5 years, hence it not looking like a PC game. Don't know if there are any mods..Litchie

Dunno about your copy, but mine doesn't particularly have any Graphics options that are worth mentioning

So no word on a patch for this issue since Carmacks tweet, eh?

You shouldn't have to create a window to be able to create vertex buffers. 18 Oct John Carmack ID_AA_Carmack John Carmack Only 10% of our pixels require lots of samples for soft shadows, but determining which 10% is slower than always doing the samples. :-( 17 Oct John Carmack ID_AA_Carmack John Carmack @ @DesignerDon our first test of a higher res page file didn't help much, because most source textures didn't actually have any more detail. 14 Oct John Carmack ID_AA_Carmack John Carmack Do modern ultrasonic trackers use continuous phase measurement after initially resolving integer ambiguity with time of flight? 14 Oct John Carmack ID_AA_Carmack John Carmack @ @peppefenix I can make benchmarks that will show either the PS3 or 360 to be superior, so they are close, but I prefer the trades on the 360 14 Oct John Carmack ID_AA_Carmack John Carmack We have a bicubic-upsample+detail texture option for the next PC patch that will help alleviate the blurry textures in Rage. 14 Oct

It's really hard to read your post when you keep writing tex' instead of textures.

But on the bright side, the game is really cool. So who cares. This graphics whining is just getting old, or maybe i am.
