Bugs (other than texture pop-up)

Post » Fri May 11, 2012 9:21 pm

Well now, first of all my native language is not english so excuse me for typos.
Also I′m using Sony 40EX524, HDMI 1.4 cables, Onkyo TX-SR308 amplifier (correct word?) and I have 5.1 surround sound in use. So it goes like PS3 connected to Onkyo passing to Sony TV. Not directly PS3->TV


So the bugs in this other ways good game.

* Missing/faded sounds.

Sometimes when driving in the wasteland and shooting with minigun, sound disappears (the ratatatatata) Other sounds can be heard correctly.
Same happens also on foot sometimes but not as often.
Oh and couple of times granades don′t make BOOM! Sound.

Edit.

Been reading about and actually encountered new sound issue. (Also on PC and Xbox) NPC speaking suddenly cuts away (yes I know that if you walk away they stop talking, that is not the issue)
Same happens in wasteland legends "I heard that they had SUDDEN STOP." <-----Something like that, yet it′s still in the loading screen for 10-15 seconds.
Also sometimes the sound is coming from wrong channel. NPC in your front speaking, assume front speaker is sending sound. NO both back channels are sending sound. Weird.


* Green is the new BLACK!

Yes this is common problem but I believe it has something to do with your own adjustments in TV. Something to do with HDMI deep color option. Also brightness.
Been fidling with those adjustments and black is now black.

* Random bugs

Couple times enemy has stucked in wall. One time random crash, invisible walls (pipe run game?) Also I have read about crashing/tilting on loading screens, never happened to me.

* Pop-up problems feat. ugly textures

Yes, this is the main problem in the game. The faster you turn, then more visible it will be. Optimization issue perhaps? Cause when you′r driving this doesn′t happen as often/at all or going so fast that it goes unnoticed.
The textures..Well it′s kinda funny, the human models are goodlooking but the misc. items on desks for example are very blurry, ugly half-life looking. (My opinion) So where do we need this megatexture thingy? It′s all
fuzzy and blurry. Maybe a fix will come, who knows.

BUT if this game stays as it is. I want somekind of compensation. No I will not send the game back and want my money back. Maybe a discount or free game or something? Clearly this game is broken/beta or something. Not unplayable (to all, someone may have a seizure cos all the pop-up!) but annoying.

* Multiplayer

Why only 9 Co-op missions? Why no Mario Kart racing style? (like in singleplayer?) Why no DM with 6-12 people? Well these are my opinions we can all have different ones.

Ps.
The good stuff

- The sound effects. When playing with a good hometheatre you can feel the kick with shotguns blast (BOOM goes the bass) the taktaktaktaktaktka with AK look-alike. And all that other stuff.
- AI pretty decent in my opinion (playing at hard difficulty) I just don′t know why do we get silent weapons (crossbow) when the enemy will hear anyways. Maybe 1-2 you can kill with, but after that IT hits the fan.
- Cars. Mad Max anyone? Need I say more?
- Art style.

Thank you for reading, sorry for my bad english and ID/Betheseda, please. Don′t Fudge this game up please. Don′t leave your customers hang in discomfort for not knowing what is going on in your end.

Regards. Player from Finland

The game will crash going from the multiplayer menu to single player menu. I think it's a fluke, since it never happen the 2nd time around, then again I'd I've yet to do it the 3rd time.

I get this purple smear/ghosting when paning the camera left to right or up down mostly in Wellsprings. I wrote about it here:

Anyone else having this issue?

The low resolution textures are not going to get any better. You have to look at the fact that Rage runs at 60 frames per second, twice as many frames as most other games. To get such a high framrate they have to cut some texture quality even with the megatexture streaming technology, the PS3 just isn't strong enough.

If we are lucky they will fix the pop up issue eventually, but It feels like all the complaints on this forum are falling on deaf ears. I don't think anyone from beth or ID are reading this. The PC problems gets all the media coverage so from a business point of view that's the version they need to fix. When the PC version is all sorted out then maybe we will see a PS3 patch.

There's some screen tearing in wellspring if you walk down the alley where you can do the dice-roll mini game. It only seems to happen there but happens every time.

Did you happened to notice some of that purple smearing/ghosting I was talking about in Wellsprings?

I don't have the possibility to do a sreenshot right now since I'm at the office, but it looks like objects or characters leave some sort of purple smearing when you pan the camera left to right for example. There's another user on the forum that's experiencing this and I just can't make anything of it. Could it be a faulty blu ray disk??

I can confirm the crash on loading screen (first mission, entering ghost hideout). Crashes everytime, so a further gameplay is not possible!

Another reinstall solved the issue.

i was in a fight in the wasted garage and the bandit with a shotgun after you kill the chaingunner gets stuck in the floor ha
he couldn't shoot me although the audible BOOM! of the shotgun could be heard.

i'm also experiencing a huge saving issue where just about everytime i save i get the error try again box.
and loading new areas it wont load just a "black screen" with audio SFX thats it until restart game reenter
and it will do it again in a different area hmmmmmmmmmmmm
i never had a problem with any other id game until now i believe it's bethesda cause all bethesda games i have they do the same thing
IM NOT BAD MOUTHING THEM i love there games as well, bethesda just needs to work on the technical aspects b4 they launch there games.

Y'all remember Ultimate DooM, DooM II, Final DooM, D-Zone, Hexen, Commander Keen, Quake, Quake II, DooM3, Quake IV
All these games ran perfect....
OH YEA I forgot Wolfenstein 3d O-O........
