RAGE gameplay revealed!

The highly anticipated shooter from id has been revealed in the form of this new trailer. it is said to be completely different from all the shooters made by id so far, and the game also uses a new engine, called id tech 5. so here is RAGE in all its glory!




Although the game is primarily a First person shooter, it also has alot of racing and RPG elements. there will be drivable vehicles in the game such as dune buggies, ATV's and bikes. weapons will include shotguns, sniper rifles, machine guns... all the stuff you would expect from a shooter. but their will also be some slightly less common weapons, like a crossbow, and the 'wing stick', which kills an enemy silently. gun turrets have been confirmed, and they can be picked up and moved as many times as you want.

For the RPG elements in the game, you can loot items from the game world and use the items to make your own weapons and vehicles. vehicles can also be fitted by firearms. like fallout 3, you need the schematics of something before you can make it, but unlike fallout 3, you don't need a workbench to make your custom weapons.


The things i've mentioned here are only a fraction of what is going to be included in RAGE. id have announced that there will be 2 different area's in the game world, and so far they have only showed one. the second will have a completely different fell to it. RAGE is set to be released on the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC, be excited.
