Incoming RAGE DLC/Add-on and Mod Tools

It appears that Bethesda and id Software are preparing a new DLC or add-on for RAGE, as the publisher has registered Rage: The Scorchers with PEGI for PS3, X360 and PC. According to the registration, Rage: The Scorchers will allow players to interact with other players online and will contain extreme violence  and strong language. We expect Bethesda to announce this DLC/add-on pretty soon, as they hinted about it back in March. Continue reading Incoming RAGE DLC/Add-on and Mod Tools

John Carmack – QuakeArena not newbie friendly for consoles, RAGE native linux client could happen

Ah, the good old days of Quake 3. Those frantic deathmatches can’t be easily forgotten and a lot of gamers are currently enjoying them via Quake Live. However, it appears that some people wish for a next generation version of iD’s best multiplayer game. Well, we got some bad news as there won’t going to be one anytime soon. When a fan asked for a new Quake 3 game, John Carmack said that it would not happen. The reason behind it is quite simple. According to Carmack, QuakeArena does not translate well to game controllers – due to its fast movements – and is not newbie friendly for a console for a console triple-A title. Therefore, there are no plans for resurrecting or developing a remake of it for current generation systems.

RAGE 64-bit Executable File will be released, more news about Mod Tools coming soon

I seriously don’t know if you’ll get excited about it, but John Carmack has confirmed that a 64bit executable version of RAGE will be released. Carmack didn’t give any specific details about the gains that it could possibly introduce but when a fan asked whether this 64bit version was cancelled or not, Carmack responded and reassured him that it will be released as it’s now in the Q&A phase.
As Carmack tweeted:
“it is still in QA, but it is definitely going to be released.”
In other news, iD Software revealed a while ago that they have not forgotten about all those promises for a PC Level Editor and Mod Tools. As the company tweeted a couple of weeks ago, they’ll be sharing new information soon. Well, it’s been two weeks since then and we haven’t heard anything from them.
Here is hoping that iD Software won’t use Valve’s ‘time schedule’ for their announcements.

This new patch will include a texture sharpening option that was promised by John Carmack some months ago. Well, to be more precise, we assume that this feature will be included but since this is iD Software and Bethesda we are talking about.

RAGE – News about the PC Level Editor coming this month

Ah, RAGE. A game with so potential that was never meant to be released in its current state on the PC. You’d think that iD Software would try their best to redeem themselves and fix it in due time, right? Well, apparently iD Software has other plans. Either that or they are waiting for the ‘right moment’ to release the next patch (that will include a sharpening option for the game’s textures) and its level editor to the PC.

Well, apparently not as we have some brand new information about the state of both the level editor and the promised patch, so keep reading.
