Trailers: RAGE - Uprising Trailer

[Nurb]

I'm suffering from post-apocolyptic game disorder. I'm burnt out on dirty run-down brownish settings with or without zombies and feel fatigued just thinking about jogging around another wasteland.

"Borderrage Fallout Gearlands 9000" looks like every other grungy dystopia. Points for attempting a different visual style, but it's not stylized enough in my personal opinion.

 

[cicaba]

How does this video relate to Starcraft?

*bwahahaha*

 

[Still Life]

ut I'd expect them to be able to shift it well enough if they buy some decent reviews.

Are you joking or just trying to 'look' edgy in that pretentious way that many on the escapist attempt?

OT:

Rage seems very reminiscent of Half Life 2, which is a good thing. Looks very different from anything id have done before. Very excited to see how this one turns out, given that this is a new thing for the studio.

Snip

The game looks a lot like Fallout and Borderlands, plus this trailer is 80% cutscene. So I'm still not sold.

Yeah, there's a real lack of gameplay videos for Rage circulating around the net, right?

 

[Still Life]

Oh god, the new generation...
There was a time when "An id Software production" instantly signalled quality. It saddens me that new kids don't have respect for the legendary development studio.

id are yet to develop a game that isn't of a high quality. Still, it's cool to bash anything that takes obvious inspiration from other great titles on this site because it's considered artiste.

Edit*

Code on this site is griefing me.

Is that sarcasm? I don't get what you meant there.

 

[Mr.Gompers]

Well, guess I'll be watching for more news on this game, won't buy it till I see reviews though, I haven't had such great luck with pre-orders lately.

 

[Zaverexus]

The world of Fallout, the vague plot summary that sounds like Brink, and gameplay that reminds me of Bioshock.
Hey, I'm not arguing.

 

[KillerMort]

i've decided to sell almost all my old games to get Skyrim, RAGE, and BF3, and RAGE might be the one i'll like most story wise, it looks half lifey and i like that a lot, and i think that this game is also trying to say
"grey and brown pallets can be used aesthetically and awesomely if you mesh with the world and lore."
because come on those were the colors i saw most of but didn't care because it looks so fitting and gorgeous.

 

[SomeBrianDude]

The more I see of Rage, the more excited I am about it. id have never let me down in the past, I don't expect they'll start now.

Looking forward to firing a shotgun that feels like it's ripping a hole through the spacetime continuum.

Hopefully it's more than 4 or 5 hours long.

Apparently it's at least 15-20 hours long, according to Todd Hollenshead.

Pretty much everything he says in that interview reassures me that Rage will be all kinds of awesome.

 

[gmaverick019_v1legacy]

wow looks pretty good, looks like gears of war meets borderlands (borderlands gameplay and colors, but gears of war world type)


color me interested for sure..

 

[godofallu]

If it came out now i'd buy it. But at that time there are too many other titles that it can't compete with.

 

[Triforceformer]

Will you look at all that brown? I mean, I thought New Vegas was brown, but God damn.

 

[Sephren468]

I think it looks pretty good. I have watched a few gameplay vids and mind control crossbow bolts that can also explode sound really fun. Also not many quality FPS games coming out this year DE:HR (more of a rpg imo) and BF3 is really it. Bioshock isnt coming out till next year.

 

[Dr. Pepper Unlimited]

Looks interesting. The trailer had a snip of my childhood in there with the scream from the intro to Ahhh Real Monsters at 2:30. That caught me off guard. The game looks promising though.

 

[StormShaun]

I thought at first that this game would have a weak story, but I hope I am wrong because this looks really, really, good!

 

[Strazdas]

More fallout with cars? yes please.

 

[stewox]

Rage is ID's own "duke nukem forever", they said it's the longest developed title in ID history, it was started in 2004- (planning or paperwork probably in 2003)


Only this title ... will actually succeed.

PC version is so cheap, 26 GBP on UK AMAZON Collector Edition

 

[mexicola]

Looks like story could hardly get more clichéd if they tried, but the gameplay itself looks like loads of fun. Shame my PC wouldn't be able to run it to the main menu let alone the game itself.

 

[mikev7.0]

That looks a lot like Fallout, gameplay looks decent enough thought.

What?

God I hope this game doesn't suck...

What?

Still not sure what to make of it though. Hopefully it's more than 4 or 5 hours long. Hopefully it's got a decent and varied single player story. Hopefully the vehicle sections don't suck.

What?

Did any of you actually LOOK AT THAT TRAILER?

That's the most awesome shit I've seen in a while right there.

Rage, Skyrim, DeusEx3... how will I ever keep up!?

I feel your pain. Wait this isn't pain! Anywho I know how ya' feel. Dues Ex is this month though and RAGE isn't until October so we have a while yeah? I'm giving Skyrim the miss since I still haven't finished Oblivion, so for me it's easier.

OT: I've said it all along, it looks great, can't wait to play it, I think it will be another sleeper hit. I don't think it will get good reviews though. Way too much fodder for entitiled and jaded reviewers to poke fun at instead of talking about what's actually in the damn game! Too much low hanging fruit for their terrible jokes. Mark my words we'll never hear the end of: "Wow. The Authority and the Resistance? Really?" not to mention the never ending comparisons to Fallout, Borerlands, etc. as if we couldn't manage to leap that logic chasm on our own. Oh well like much else that is panned, I'll still buy it, and I'll still love it.

 

[Hafnium]

What a bunch of complainers some people are. How brown exactly should a post-apocalyptic game be? If you think all shooters are the same, lock yourself away now and save your money! Or maybe, don't buy them all? I, for one, think Rage looks flippin great, and they can have my money as soon as it's out.
