Developer id has unveiled the much-anticipated release of the official RAGE modding toolkit - the same tools used to create RAGE and its DLC, The Scorchers - via the Bethesda blog. The modding tools will be available later today on Steam free of charge and weighing in at a whopping 35GB+, which you will be able to find in the tools section of Steam.
Later today on Steam we will be releasing the official tool kit for RAGE – the same tools used to create RAGE and it’s DLC, The Scorchers. From the game’s world building tool, idStudio, to game maps and assets, the kit provides everything you need to get started with modding the first-ever idTech 5 title.For those interested, two documents have been released detailing all that is needed to get straight into modding. You can find these documents here and here. Monday, 17 December 2012

Continuing their post-release support of the all-new RAGE IP, id Software and Bethesda have announced new downloadable content for RAGE, due to hit PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 next week.
In this brand-new adventure spanning six all-new areas, you will fight alongside new allies to defend the Hager Settlment from a maniacal bandit clan known as The Scorchers. Along the way, you’ll participate in a new season of Mutant Bash TV, encounter new mini-games, and wield the overpowering and brutal Nailgun.The Scorchers DLC also offers a new difficulty mode: Ultra-Nightmare and also lets you finally play past the ending in order to continue collecting everything and finishing the game 100%. We have a single screenshot of the new content you can check out right here, otherwise The Scorchers will set you back around $5 or 400 MS Points. Friday, 3 February 2012

After a delay that seemed to be quite annoying to many PC gamers, the 1.2 patch for Rage has finally arrived. The biggest new feature seemed to do with the texture detail problem that caused hassles for many at release:
Texture Detail: Enabling Texture Detail will improve up-close texture quality by performing upsampling with adaptive sharpening. This does not update or increase the resolution of the base textures included with the game but improves the perceived resolution and crispness of textures. This is an intensive operation and is only recommended if you have a quad-core CPU or higher. Please disable this feature if you encounter poor performance, stability issues or are given a notification that the game has run out of memory after loading a map. The Texture Detail option can be found in the Settings -> Video Menu.The full patch notes, including list of bug fixes, are available here. If you're interested in checking this game out, make sure you check out our buy page for the lowest prices (~$24 from ozgameshop). A Mac version of the game is also available - OS X users can check it out at the App Store or from Aspyr (no mention of Steam?). Tuesday, 25 October 2011

Bethesda and id Software were kind enough to hook AusGamers up with a special game and swag pack for RAGE, featuring a copy of the game on all three platforms, a T-Shirt, a signed A3 poster by Tim Willits and Matt Hooper and a replica Wingstick.
These are in short supply though. In fact we only have three of them -- one for each platform -- so you need to get in quick. And how do you enter, well if you're an AusGamers regular, you know how, and we know just how much you love it, but for everyone else, just tell us in 50 words or less: Obviously we're looking for the most creative responses (because we actually wouldn't expect you to realistically ever want to throw a Wingstick at someone), and need you to remember to tell us your preferred platform of choice.

As noted by Reverend in the forums, the first patch for id Software's recently released Rage is now available - the Bethesda blog summarises the changes:
Implemented workaround for AMD driver crash right after intro cinematic on Win 7 32-bit systems.There changes are covered in more detail on the Steam announcement. There's been quite a few complaints from PC gamers disappointed in the visual quality of the game on the PC - particularly around the texture popping issue (which seems to be a combination of driver and game issues), the appearance of lower resolution textures, and the comparative lack of ability to tweak the visual settings. id Software's Todd Hollenshead acknowledged that so far the driver updates provided haven't fixed everyone's problem but indicated that they - and the video card companies - are still working on the problem, which will hopefully bring hope to the PC gaming community. Let us know if this new patch makes a difference for you in the comments! Tuesday, 4 October 2011

So here it is. Our RAGE review.
The burning questions have been answered for those of you wanting to know the score. Has id managed to modernise their game-design? Does id Tech 5 live up to its promise? Is this just a Fallout 3/Borderlands clone? Is it any good? We can't answer all of those in a news post though ;) what would be the point in that. Instead, we've compiled a lengthy, in-depth review for you to digest, that goes into the game's shortcomings, where it wins, and how both sides coalesce into the final, retail product.
