Bethesda has released a new update for their recently released RAGE, on PC. Logging on to Steam will get your download started and some of the launch issues seem to have been remedied. iD has released the full Patch Release Notes on the Bethsoft Forums.
In their official statement:
“RAGE defaults to lower video settings to allow the game to work on a wide variety of hardware and software configurations. Unfortunately, it is not possible to anticipate all possible graphics driver issues in combination with unique end user hardware and software configurations.”
Patch Changes / Fixes
