RAGE 2: Eden Assault – Extended Gameplay
- Thread starter osnameless
- Start date
They should not have put this out on the same day as that Doom footage. It looks fine, but unspectacular.

Indeed.
I am not gonna lie. I found it by accident.
This game suffered from the leak that forced them to reveal it early and now this. Hopefully it won't be another Wolfenstein 2 situation for Betheseda
This looks loads of fun. I'm glad the convoys from Mad Max are in it, they were my favourite bit of that game but I didn't feel like there were enough of them.
ya, really hoping I can up the Fov even on console.
Titanfall 2 has spoiled me
Hell yeah!!! Just played the original Rage over a month ago and definitely want more especially with Avalanche Studios developing the open world and car combat in the game. Can't wait!!!
FYI, pretty much all of this content was made available to press behind closed doors at E3. As a result, we didn't write it up. My guess is, QuakeCon attendees will play the exact same build. The only slightly new thing was that brief driving sequence, which--far as I'm concerned--looked pretty ho-hum, in terms of driving in straight lines and having weapons apparently auto-target foes ahead. (But we didn't get to play that at E3, and I doubt that'll change for QuakeCon attendees.)
Looks crazy and visually pretty. For every piece of video they pratically convinces me this is the game I should get. The car mechanics were my worries last time, but now I'm impressed.
It doesn't seem like the actual game completely lines up with the wacky, colored smoke, Andrew WK tone of the trailers, but even so, it looks good.
The reveal didn't seem forced...it was fine? Companies are trying to take up that gap leading up to E3 with announcements now rather than saving it all for the stage where it can get overshadowed. You're also calling Pete Hines a liar since he quite clearly explained that the leak didn't change their plans lol
Also that leak wasn't as great as people made it out to be, other than for a few confirmations. Everything was already hinted at or known as a reputable rumor/previous leak (including Splinter Cell via Amazon), and none of the new IPs were part of it.
This looks great. I am really digging the more "fun" tone they have going. Hopefully the ID/Avalanche team-up results in smooth gun play and lots of open world shenanigans.
I'm liking what I'm seeing. Seems like they took pick and choose the best elements from both the Mad Max game and the first Rage and combined them into one far more interesting whole. I'm liking what I'm seeing especially the far improved vehicle combat and the on foots section seemed to echo the feel of the originals gunplay. I'm looking forward to this and as long as they can make in more varied and nuanced than the first game without such a lackluster ending I think this could be a great sequel.
Really like what I'm seeing, the car combat looks great, the gunplay is superb, and the world seems beautiful. Good job Avalanche/iD
The game looks great but once again Bethesda marketing shot themselves in the foot by showing this right before the Doom footage everyone was dying to see so now it gets all the attention.
It's a shame because this looks like it'll be another very solid and fun game but what can you do about it? Just buy the stuff that looks good and hope they one day learn how to market something properly.

I'm the weird guy who is more excited for this than Doom.
I just hope it utilizes everything it's presenting, unlike the first game.

I'm looking forward to this equally as much as Doom Eternal. Both games look like a lot of fun and there haven't been a lot of fun/good FPS lately.
unspectacular is the right word. gunplay appears to be the best part of it. Vehicle combat looks surprisingly slow
Something about the gunplay looks off. I think it is the FOV as another poster mentioned.
Regardless, Avalanche's Mad Max game was bland and nothing we've seen so far makes me feel any different about Rage 2.

Yeah, same. Sure I'll be getting the new Doom too, but this is just more of what I want.
