CoHH prepares this by streaming rage 1.

Did they really just announce the release only 5 days prior to it? That has to be a new record for a AAA game.

RAGE 2 – BFG weapon to be locked behind Deluxe and Collector’s Editions at launch


We don’t know when Bethesda will unlock this weapon for the rest of the players, however this is a really anti-consumer move that was obviously made to boost the sales of both the Deluxe and the Collector’s Editions.

I also believe that it will be really ironic if someone releases a mod that unlocks the BFG to everyone at launch. From what we know so far, RAGE 2 will not support mods at launch, however, a mod that simply unlocks weapons is something that could, theoretically, be done.

Not only that, but pirates may also have access to the BFG weapon from the get-go (thus making the pirated version better than the Base Edition). So yeah, thanks Bethesda for screwing your legitimate players.
Steam thread about this monetization practice:

Fun read for me, maybe will be to you too.

Regardless of that, said before, not interested in this product.

Steam will be divided.
1/2 wtf thats bad decision.
1/2 why do you care?

Overall money talks louder than forum warriors who will buy it anyway.
99% will buy regardless of which stance they took.

I played the first Rage and it was ok, I got pretty much what I paid for, five dollars of mediocre entertainment. I might pick this one up in a couple of years if I hear lots of positive comments about it.

ToddMcF2002 May 10th, 2019 05:04

I only got about 3 hours in before boredom took over. But I will also watch for reviews

JDR13 May 10th, 2019 05:32

I thought Rage was pretty decent. Not great but better than the rap it tends to get from a lot of people.

But I'm a sucker for a post-apocalyptic setting, and there wasn't an overabundance of those back then.

Couchpotato May 10th, 2019 06:10

Liked the first game but it was a technical mess due to being one of the first games to use MegaTextures and the id Tech engine. It didn't even have a proper ending.

mercy May 13th, 2019 00:14

Rage 1 was good compared to this HEAP OF SHT! WTF happened? They got all high and forgot they are developing a game?? The first seconds with that blue red "lighting" looks REPULSIVE. The rest looks like a badly aged Carmack engine. I would be happy to leave a negative review on Steam.

vurt May 13th, 2019 00:39

I would have preferred more grit, less farcry bloodragon / serious sam / just cause vibe because that never have any immersive world building… such games are fun in co-op for an hour or so, that's it.. i'm getting that vibe here but SP.

Kordanor May 13th, 2019 00:44

Love post apocalypse and 80s Blood Dragon Setting.

Don't like the price tag of 60€ for a game with maybe less than 30h of gameplay.

So…going to wait a year or two and get it in a sale. Or maybe even the physical edition if it becomes available for cheap.

Are you ready to Raaage?!

Seems like a good, brainless fun, really like the sound of all guns here. But I can't see this selling all that well, not without a good marketing behind it.

Ripper May 13th, 2019 01:43

It appears to be strong in the douchebag side of the Force.

Most definitely. Doesn't mean it's a bad game though. Duke Nukem was a Jedi master of douchebaggery, and that game was great. :)

Ripper May 13th, 2019 02:05

True, and some of what I've seen of the gameplay didn't look bad. Still, if the tone of their marketing campaign pervades the entire game, I'm not sure I could stomach it.

Couchpotato May 13th, 2019 02:07

Can't get any more douchebaggery then the Duke.

Lol, now I really want to play it…is it really that bad?
Reminds me a bit of Ride to Hell, had these hilarious scenes, you'd stumble on chicks ( mostly hookers) being harrassed by rednecks, you proceed to beat them to death, then the game straight jumps to sex scenes ( sometimes more than 1 on 1, if you know what I mean).

Yeah I remember that as it was hailed as the worst game of 2013 if not ever.:lol:

Five years from its initial release, Ride to Hell is still widely considered to be one of the worst games ever made. So obviously I had a blast with it. It's as perplexing as it is hilarious; getting you to think about the context of its production in the same way the best b-movies do. In this video, I try to break down what the hell Ride to Hell even is, and why I ended up having such a surprisingly good time with it.

JDR13 May 13th, 2019 04:20

I don't remember Ride to Hell, but I guess that's probably a good thing. It does indeed look quite awful.

Duke Nukem Forever isn't bad. The problem is that it's the sequel to arguably one of the best first-person shooters ever made, and expectations were overblown. I thought some of the levels were actually really cool.

When I said Duke was great, I was talking about Duke 3D of course not DNF.
