Current Events > Four days until rage 2 is released and no one is talking about it

(+) Yeah! (+)

cause for concern, or sleeper hit?

it's pretty much doom gunplay with powers + open world gameplay from the just cause team, so i thought there'd be a bit more hype behind it.

Day one baby

I haven't heard really much of anything about it, but I bought the first one as a "bargain bin" game and quite enjoyed it.

I'll see what people think, but I'll probably end up just picking it up on a sale later on. I don't pay full price for many games these days.

I thought it came out last year...

I think most people wrote it off because Rage was mediocre and they never bothered to watch any gameplay of this one.

you might be thinking of when walmart accidentally leaked it before it's official announcement. funnily enough, they made some special edition xbox controllers to commemorate the event,

that's true. i guess i just assumed more people saw the e3 trailer and maybe got interested in it, because if not for the post apocalypse setting, it looks like a completely different game

Gameplay impressions so far have said the shooting/gunplay is exactly like doom 2016.

It all hinges on how the rest of the game is.

I'll probably get it for cheap on Black Friday. It looks fun as fuck, but I'm too busy with other games to play it right now.

that's the kind of thing i like to hear. doom 2016 was easily the best fps that year

Day one buy here

I have nothing else to play and the combat looks fun so I might pick it up. The only concern is that I'm burnt out on open world games.

Like, the combat being doom 2016 combat looks and sounds fantastic, but I want to know how the open world shit plays out, mission structure, story, etc..
