Good news for AMD users...

From AMD tweets just now...

"New Rage driver with proper OGL component will be posted later today"

Hmm, wonder how bf3 beta performance will suffer.

They actually posted a driver with old opengl components last night instead of the proper files :p
 
Seems like a mistake to me that people are already cancelling their pre-orders before having even tried it, but each to their own I guess.

The texture pop-in appears to be an issue with ATI cards yeah.

Apparently it applies to even top-end nVidia cards, like the 580. However, there is apparently a different fix for ATi cards that relates to the cache not being built properly - apparently creating a folder considerably improves performance. Seems a bit silly. Even so, ATi cards with the Rage drivers are still suffering a lot of problems.

I really hope that this game receives a lot of support from id Software, as I don't often see forums with as many issues as this on release.
 
Also, from AMD Catalyst Creator twitter...

"All - don't use the current Rage performance driver - package includes very old OGL files, that's why you're seeing corruption etc."

Don't be silly. :p He's only here to troll and repost what other idiots are writing elsewhere.

I wouldn't be shocked if today was the first he'd even heard of the game.

Course he has, he's a troll brother with AWPC. They have regular meetings under the bridge to share information about games and search for news that can in some way be construed to mean console port.
 
IMHO it would be silly and premature to give up on RAGE at this point. id will release a patch or there will be a driver fix soon enough.

I honestly can't see them abandoning the game or us. This is id we're talking about and they care about us, their fans. Not to mention their reputation as one of the last remaining original PC developers who have a fantastic history of great games and support.

RAGE is getting some excellent reviews :) Performance and stability issues aside, the game itself sounds rock solid and a lot of fun.
 
Just to confirm this is NOT an AMD/ATI issue, this is a RAGE and your graphics driver issue i.e. nVidia, Crossfire and SLi too!

There's moaning from both sides of the camp.

Whatever happened to play testing?

They did play test it. The game runs fine on an XBox and a PS3 and that's all that matters these days. They've gone for the money. Can't say I blame 'em.

The PC? nah. They'll fix that later with a high res texture pack etc. So long as it runs at the moment they can go gold and release the game.

QA no longer exists for PC titles. I mean, why pay a huge team inhouse to do all the indepth QA when you get it all done for free? By the first people actually buying and playing the game in the real world?

It's a worrying portend
 
Just unlocked via VPN. I'll be in offline mode on steam for a bit I guess :)

Seems to work nicely so far. You can see the slow texture loading but it doesn't make the game unplayable. Hopefully the driver later today will fix that minor issue too.
