The new patch and new drivers from ATI have fixed all the problems for me, the textures load properly making the game look and run much better.

Currently playing:

EVE online (Ruining low sec one hotdrop at a time)

Skyrim.

Waiting on:
Guild Wars 2
World of Darkness

10/10/11 11:52:10 AM#42

They already fixed the game.

Patch came and now we have graphical options and the texture, slow down problems are gone.

All we need now is the DLC, obviously Zenimax forced ID to butcher the last 1/3 of its game so they had a couple DLCs after release.

in 6-12 months time we will get the real RAGE experience.

Ultima ONline (3 Years)
EverQuest (2 Years)
DAoC (2 Years)
SWG (2 Years)
Shadowbane (1 Year)
World of Warcraft (3 Years)
Guild Wars (2 Years)
Eve Online (4 Years)
Saga of Ryzom (2 Years)
Lord of the Rings Online (5 Months)
Warhammer Online (3 Months)
RIFT (8 Months)
SW: Old Republic (2 weeks LOL!)
Guild Wars 2 (TBD)

The AMD fix was released ONE day after retail launch.  The Nvidia fix was already downloadable at release day in the form of the beta driver for Battlefield 3.  Apparently you don't know anything about PC games.  If you did, you'd already know that making a game for PC is 1 million times more difficult based on the fact that there are millions of combinations of hardware components.  Console has one combination, what you are given in the Xbox/PS3/Wii, therefor you don't have to account for bugs from outside factors.

I updated my drivers and dowloaded the current patch, it works just fine. Perhaps some just need better pcs for gaming.

Got the same problem, patched the game, and now its fine. The texture still need some millisecond to show, but its barely noticeable. They shouldn't had release it with that bug for sure, its not good advertisement for them.

The graphism are great though, my boy was totally amazed by it. I'm at the beginning, the game look rock solid as a first impression. I expected to be more sandboxy, but it seam to open up as i progress so i'm good with that.

Id was such a legend back them, i'm happy seeing a solid game from them.

That is not always the case, you can see my computer specs in my sig image -- actually I've got 12GB (4GB x 3) of DDR3 RAM now -- and I can't even get passed the first cutscene after the asteroid crashes into the Earth, it goes to a black screen to load I think, freezes & crashes; so I've been unable to play the game at all.

I patched mine good, and also put in a nice little Rageconfig.cfg in to give me configuration options.  Running great now, but used to run like that.

If your still having problems, and that problem is at the first cur scence I would be pretty safe in saying its you not ID, either you have a corrupted download or its something like a very out of date driver for sound etc etc, if its a Steam download I suggest a file check, if not, reload try again, remove that possibility move on to sound drivers etc etc

 

Currently Subbed EVE, thats it after years off MMO play I am reduced to one sub due to the massive levels of CRAP in the market.

Everything, and I do mean everything is up-to-date, in this case it's id and their stupid console-to-pc port, instead of the other way around!

Alot of people where having that problem and the patch fixed it. Have you tried reinstalling/redownloading? I'm guessing not but I may be wrong.

As for me I wasnt having issues before the patch. After the patch I was having all sorts of preformance issues. I redownloaded the entire 20 gigs + patch and everything wasback to normal. Odd that my patch was corrupted. But it was.

Texture streaming has nothing to do with the game being a console port. Texture streaming is a way to get around megatestures that they are using in idtech5 engine. Which means a whole scenery sits on single texture file that contains all the needed texture and only thos ein your FOV are streamed onto the display. 

It's justs imply bad implementation due to hardware limitations. 

 

The consolization blame goes to them however for not enabling full video options settings from the get go and forcing auto-detect on people. It's however being fixed through patches, just as texture popping will be fixed by updates to both engine code and driver patches. 

 

Also. Lol at putting Ubisoft there as example of PC friendly company. Good joke.

if i recall in the past !id software did go to the majors(intel,nvidia,amd)with the idea of upgrading and optimising in new ways

the big gun said no!what can id software do?lol they have to work with the crap intel,amd and nvidia send user!they did argue with the the big 3 but to no avail!

so until the big 3 fall back to earth and start using comon sense all the id software of the world are at the mercy of the big 3

i didnt mention arm cause i dont know their position in regard to idsoftware idea but it might be a good idea for id software to ask arm cause on the mobile front they are the only major norm!

oh the big 3 might not like it but i bet it never stopped id software before lol

i sure arm would go along with id software idea cause everybody would benefit fairly fast!

we ll have to wait and see !

It's always a shame when people are unable to play certain games, as I have replied later on, or actually before your reply, I have bought the game this weekend and havn't even installed the patch, so far no issue's I only read about.

Don't know if the game is optimized for sli or crossfire, I am using a Nvidia GTX580 on windows7, have 6gb of ram and a X-Fi Elite soundcard but as said so far no issue what so ever even without the patch.

Hope you get it sorted out or perhaps the patch might do the trick for you and commonly speaking it's not what type of system you have it's how you might have configured it.

Well, it turns out as far as I can tell the AMD RAGE driver patch was Catalyst 11.7, as I just found it on my system along with 11.9; so what I am going to try and do is completely uninstall RAGE, then the 11.9 & 11.7 drivers and reinstall 11.9 and then RAGE and update 1, if that doesn't work I am going to be very f***ing pissed off!

I have been playing RAGE on PS3 with large screen LCD this weekend. Dowloaded a patch and it is a real blast on console. I think ID based on this do not suck, PC gamers should probably head to console for for FPS and probably RPGs too that are multi-platform. The computer is for work, lifestyle, some RPGs, and MMORPGs now!
