The gaming website updates Rage players on a new patch and the game’s terrible launch, but has a little fun in the process.
Rage had been out for what seemed like minutes when users started reporting serious problems with the PC version of the game. Blurry textures, screen tearing and texture pop were among the most common complaints, with the studio rushing to publish an updated driver for gamers bummed about such a terrible release.
Today, Joystiq covered an interview with id co-founder John Carmack regarding what he calls the “cluster!@#$” of a launch, but they also couldn’t help having some fun at the developer’s expense. Here’s the screenshot from the site:
It’s a friendly joke to be sure, but the content of the post is still pretty important from the perspective of a gamer. Carmack has plenty to say on the launch, especially when it comes to the difficulty of dealing with a variety of PC setups and console limitations:
"You can choose to design a game around the specs of a high-end PC and make console versions that fail to hit the design point, or design around the specs of the consoles and have a high-end PC provide incremental quality improvements. We chose the latter."
“When launch day came around and the wrong driver got released, half of our PC customers got a product that basically didn't work.”
Most of the issues with Rage have apparently been cleaned up by a patch, and those users still experiencing display errors should check out this Steam thread on getting them resolved.
Do you think Joystiq’s joke is a fair hit against a troubled release, or is it too soon for gamers that experience very real issues?

While id Software's John Carmack is a fan of Apple's technology, he will not go so far as to concur with the claims that iPad 2's power is equal to that of consoles.
He says of Apple's mobile device, "We have an embarrassment of riches when it comes to mobile development." If it were up to him, though, he would much rather have developers bring in their games to consoles and rake in big bucks than pouring it all to iOS games. "We have more power than you can afford to take advantage of.
Regarding the "incorrect hyperbole" of iPad 2's power, "There's been incorrect hyperbole about the power of these devices, where people are saying that they have console-level performance. The iPad 2 has about half the performance power, and that's a ballpark estimate."
He still closes, though, with a positive word for mobile devices. "But that does mean that mobile devices coming out, certainly next year, will be flat out more powerful, and they'll probably be powerful enough where you don't even need the hyper-optimizing, that you could do a fairly easy port-over of your technology and assets."
Earlier last month, Electronic Arts dissed on the App Store, saying that its model is in "freefall".
