How could AMD even relase that crap?

With the 11.9 drivers I was getting horrible object flicker and artifiacting on screen but at least it was running at 60 FPS.
I installed the "Rage performance driver" which fixed the flicker and artifacting but now the game runs at 15-25 FPS.

I'm quite sick of this, been trying to get this game running correctly since after the midnight release.
I've tried the 11.8, 11.9, and the new performance driver along with all the other fixes in the community.

The game either runs smooth and looks like crap (11.9 drivers).
Or the game runs like crap and is prone to crashing. (Rage performance driver + community tweaks).

Why does id/Bethesda think that driver fixed everything?
Did they all just go on vacation on the 3rd?

No pressure from id/Bethesda to get AMD to release a working driver??
WTF

yep im right with you on this, got the same problem, and i dont understand why they not saying anything about it?!

what about your clients just say at least your working on an update, dont ignore us after you got your money..


its offcial here is why carmack didnt see the PC failure coming : http://twitter.com/#!/ID_AA_Carmack/media/slideshow?url=http%3A%2F%2Fyfrog.com%2Fh72nwyyj

After installing the driver the game fails to even load, it just crashes instead of starting up. Before I installed the performance drivers it at least ran even if there were horrible artifacts popping up on all the textures. . .

Pretty much. The game runs worse with the "rage" drivers than with 11.9. Kind of funny if you ask me.

My favorite part is the twitter feed on Rage's home-page...
"new pointers on how to improve your performance on PC. More to come..."

WTF
How about you just patch your broken game you sold me instead of having the community find me fixes to implement myself.
How about you get on the damn horn with AMD and get them to release a working driver instead of that quick-fix BS we got yesterday.

I was real excited about this game, in fact I can only buy 3 games this fall/winter and Rage was one of them.
Nevermind I was totally excited to play a new id game on a new id engine on PC and now this?
id, Bethesda, AMD, Carmack - You should all be ashamed.

What I can't understand is how all these issues made it past QA and beta testing. Seriously, was it only tested on one computer?

Gawd, I hope that Skyrim is better than this console port.. then again, I get worried since I've only seen xbox footage of Skyrim thus far.

Yeah I'm worried about Skyrim too. Big fan of the series, hope this doesn't happen in Skyrim ;/

just be glad Skyrim isnt using this engine imagine that horror..

I have as much faith in Skyrim turning out good as I did in Rage

If I have to spend hours trying to make Skyrim work than that is that last penny Bethesda will ever get outa me...

Same [censored] here, crash on any load of any instance.

yeah i have the same maybe slighter differnt problem the update works for me but i get black tiles here and there and they stop after runing or walking i had more crashs changeing maps then any othere game yet,frist mission kill the raiders did that use the zip when your done did that and bam CTD restarted later down the road comeing too geting the free part for your car from raceing bam crashed on loading screen.
