Reviews from

in the past


Hmm what to say...Well at first I saw this game as a Fallout 3/Borderlands rip off. Because of the fact we're in a dystopian future, there are vaults and people want to get to the vaults. Game also seems kinda sexist as every woman (apart from elderly woman) I dressed with no tops besides a thin bikini or one-strap bra and either wear shorts or jeans in the rare cases.

So...good things about the game:

Your weapons have a varied types of ammo such as armour piercing rounds or explosive on some weapons.
The opening of the story is very engaging and interesting, thought your character being a silent protagonist doesn't add to it.
You end up straight into the action, but not in too much of a jarring way.
There are many side-missions and minigames to earn cash such as bulletin board, gambling and others.
You have a crafting system
it's a lot of fun.
You are not stuck to one vehicle and get to change to more advanced ones as you go.

However there are many bad parts.

The characters are all quite forgettable
There aren't nearly enough side-missions as Borderlands, which does in a way make it more enjoyable.
The rendering is HIDEOUS. I bought this game late in the date. It's been out for 2 years and they haven't fixed the horrible rendering? If you move around a corner too fast all the textures become blobs and enemies, in a few cases, disappear until the texture loads up.
There is a lag at times, which means you can miss a good shot or, most frustratingly, you can mess up at five-fingered fillet.
The story, whilst started strong, has a very lack-lustre ending.
Numerous bugs, including a loss of sound leading to watching the end movie on youtube because it cut out and was silent.
Despite your character never been seen in 3rd dimensions apart from end of mutant bash, you cannot customise your character nor does he appear to have a name.
*SOME weapons are upgradable, but not many.

Over-all it's a fun game and I found myself addicted to playing it, having fun decapitating people with the wingsticks and so on. Despite it's many errors, I would recommend it, if you were just after a fun fps to burn off steam. However if you're looking for something better in storyline then I suggest something more along the lines of Half-life or Portal or even System Shock. It's sad to see Id Software shit this out with Bethesda. At times there seemed to be good ideas, but at other times they either aren't expanded upon enough or fall flat. Almost like Id Software had a suggestion, Bethesda tried it, then failed miserably and didn't even put any effort into it.

One final thing, this game was obviously made for a controller. You cannot scroll through all your weapons, only 4 pre-sets which, based on the shape, probably are accessible with the D-pad. If anything get this game on a sale and only if you have no other FPSs to play. However there are many funny Id software Easter eggs in there :)

Es como Mad Max pero más cyberpunk creo

It's definitely a product of its time. The graphics are fine, but the performance isn't great and the story is pretty underwhelming. I'm glad I eventually finished it though. It made me want to play more Mad Max, which has way better car combat.

I can vivibly remember the day this came out.

I used my entire allowance to preorder this and was hyped to finally play a new Id game.
And within minutes I was deflated.
Looked and ran like hot ass my pc at the time, story was a total nothingburger, and the gunplay wasnt too different.

Up until that point I'd never dropped a game as quickly as I did rage (48 minutes including troubleshooting), and to this day I still havnt dropped another title that ive paid money for as quickly. 0 Desire to ever return this, and likely never will

id Software had to flop sometimes. It’s good looking, short and it has some cool missions, but the story and characters are just bland. Not the dystopian game you are looking for.

upresed on back wards compat

I have tried to beat this game so many times and have always got bored at some point. It sucks because I enjoy many parts of this game but just cant stick it through. Maybe one day.

pretty simple but id can never go wrong

Makes Quake 2 and Doom 3 seem like the most exciting games ever made.

I think it's underrated, but the game itself doesn't have much going on for it still.

The "from the creators of Doom and Quake" line on the box should've specified Quake 2

Steampunky post-apocalyptic first-person shooter capturing the atmosphere similar to Mad Max.

The game very well expresses the feeling of being a mercenary-like gun for hire.

I consider this to be a hidden gem and a great standalone title as a good portion of people are not familiar with it.

By the way: my guy Jessie from Breaking Bad has phenomenal taste in games.

Très très sympa ! Il faut faire deux trois petits ajustements pour le tourner à + de 60 fps et changer le FOV, mais une fois que c'est fait c'est impeccable !

L'histoire est cool même si j'ai trouvé la fin baclé.

Pour son prix il vaut clairement le coup !

C’était sympa à l’époque

[ Story: 2/10 | Gameplay: 3/10 | OST: 3/10 ]

This game is about as barebones and arid as the wasteland you crash into. The gunplay is so painfully unfun and dry and the characters are somehow flatter than Flat Stanley, but I at least got a smile seeing John Goodman come to my rescue :)

I liked some of what it was doing but the ending is so shit and so abrupt that I'll never forgive it

I probably won't Miss the Rage tbh

Sou Bitch da ID Softwawre mas esse Jogo me decepcionou profundamente, não é ruim e eu nem sequer o zerei, então não me considero apto para avaliá-lo 100%, mas pelo que joguei eu consigo defini-lo com uma palavra: Desalmado.

Tinha tudo para ser um Mad Max dos jogos mas acabou sendo desperdiçado com um mundo aberto vazio e morto, história mais ou menos e um combate legalzinho.

the shootings good
5,5/10 - Length
5,5/10 - Enjoyment
8,0/10 - Perfomance/Bugs
4,5/10 - Story/Experience
7,0/10 - Gameplay

Score = 6,1/10

Dps de jogar o 2 eu até pensei q o primeiro poderia ser um pouco melhor mas me enganei um mundo bem morto sem vida, o combate não é satisfatorio e honestamente eu nem consegui prestar atenção no enredo de tao fodase que é

Did not enjoy this game very much and it isn't because of the common criticism it gets for being a corridor shooter. It may be just dated but it felt kind of unresponsive a lot of the time. Gunplay is good when it works but towards the end enemies became super spongey and I had to play peek-a-boo constantly to avoid being killed instantly.

A weird one to be sure. My friend hyping this one up to high heaven didn't help either. It is enjoyable, but going back to it after we've had so many other games do everything it was trying to do better? Naw. I also wouldn't blame you for not touching it for the ending alone.


Mad Max sem Mad Max?

Acho que o mundo desse jogo tinha um potencial absurdo que foi totalmente desperdiçado com um sistema de missões fraco. Tudo no jogo é meio que tarefas iguais, tudo muito linear demais (O mundo aberto aqui NÃO EXISTE).

O sistema de tiro é o mais puro suco de um FPS datado da geração do Xbox 360.

Junta tudo isso com uma narrativa cansada 0 construída + personagens que são tão rasos que dói = Um joguinho chato.

PRÓS:
- Gráficos envelheceram bem.

CONTRAS:
- Narrativa e personagens nada convincentes.
- Mundo aberto desperdiçado.

MEGATEXURE

that sure became the future of games huh

I kinda liked it. Its like mad max but not.

I love a good id Software game, but this just did nothing for me.
