What would you say to PC gamers concerned that Rage might suffer on PC due to its multiplatform development?
For the game designers the biggest focus for each system is the controller interface. We’ve taken very deliberate steps to make each system feel right in regards to the interface and the controller. We’ve been making PC games for over 15 years, so PC fans should rest assured that Rage will feel like a true PC game, not a PC port of a console game.
What has id Tech 5 brought to Rage and how will the PC benefit?
Visuals are a big part of the game experience and id Tech 5 allows us to quickly render a ton of uniquely textured polygons across all platforms. However, what we’re really excited about is the fact that id Tech 5 gives us the ability to push diversity throughout all of our game environments. The biggest advantage PC users will have is the ability to fine-tune some of the minor graphical features of the game.
