To be honest, i blame ATI for thier continuos lack of driver support. So i'm now saving to buy a Nvidia card. Rage is not the first game ATI has had issues with, anyone that uses CF will probably know that Driver and support are two words ATI dont understand. Yes nvidia has had its issues too, but they are quite fast in producing Beta drivers, i had few issues with SLI.
Can't say as I'm interested in ever buying anything AMD or ATI now. Always had problems in the past, and doesn't seem to be getting better.
I also blame ID, they should have made sure the ATI drivers they were working with, were actually going to be the same drivers ravailable on release day..... and that they work. what about backwards compatibility. yes the consoles are a much bigger market, crap like this happening to PC's dont help with the PC market. i'll be seriously thinking twice before i go out to buy anything ID has had dealings with, game engine included.
as much as i know Betheseda are also to blame, i have noticed all ad's for Rage have discontinued in our country, they do have this forum for us and i haven't seen any sign of mass censorship to hide the fact the PC version of rage is a flop.
guilty by asociation and i cant say i can trust them, from the looks of things, Skyrim is also plagued with issues.
Add the fact i cant trust Funcom either, i'm running out of gaming options, where to from here? .........Blizzard?
Oh and yes, i agree, there may be a day the game will actually be playable, i haven't paid money for an unplayable game that will never work. but by the time it does work, the game will be found in the local bargain bin for 80% less
So thanks Bethesda for releasing a largely unplayable game
thanks ID for thinking towards your future and forgetting about our present and your past.
Thanks ATIAMD for staying true to yourself and just failing at providing useful support.
BTW, the game is still unplayable for me, my 6950 just declines to work as it should. new install of windows 7 x64, many versions of ATI drivers, alot of "patches".
i even tried a friends 4890, it kind of works but still crashes and glitches. The issue i'm having with rage definilty isnt due to faulty hardware either, PSU has plenty of juice, problems persist on friends computer and this forum confirms the problems i have are widespread. look forward to seeing the outcome with a GTX580
time to go find a console to burn
