PC fans rejoice – the PC version of id’s next FPS, RAGE, will include a robust level editor, so you can recreate all your favourite parts from DOOMs gone by and feel sad about how much better you think games used to be.
The project’s creative director, Tim Willits, tells PC Gamer that the editor is pretty much the same bunch of stuff used by the development team. “Pull down the console, type ‘id studio’, then press enter. Then, bam, there’s all the tools we use.”
He also notes that the editor could take some getting used to, however – everything is a bit more complicated these days.
“Building levels from scratch is more difficult, because we have a layer system in some of the levels. I can foresee somebody modding up Wellspring [a town in-game] and adding different characters, giving them different voice-over.”
The game is due out on PC, Xbox, and PS3 in September.
