Road Rage

The Road Rage Vehicle Combat Rally is one of the multiplayer modes of RAGE. Up to four players compete in a free-for-all match that takes place in an arena designed to make use of vehicles.

Description[]

There are six maps available: Gearhead Valley, Reactor, Prime, Southern Highway, Meteor, and Abandoned. The Gearhead Valley, Prime, Southern Highway and Meteor maps are based on the Campaign Rally maps, which are in turn based on the locations featured in the Campaign. The Reactor and Abandoned maps are based on locations that aren't present in any other RAGE gameplay mode.

The vehicles come equipped with a handbrake as well as a Boost ability that, in addition to presumably providing a temporary speed increase, can straighten out the vehicle if it's over rotating during a turn using the handbrake. There is also Air Burst available, which allows players to control the vehicle in the air to a certain extent and adjust their landings.

The host player chooses the map and the Rally type, and sets score and time limits. The score limit varies from 50 to 500; the default value is 200. The time limit varies from 2 minutes to 30 minutes; the default value is 10 minutes.

Rally types[]

The main objective depends on the Rally type chosen. In Carnage, killing the opponents is the only goal, while the other Rally types require the participants to pick up different "collectibles" that appear around the arena while killing the opponents to steal any Rally Points or Meteors they may have. While the Rally Points provide somewhat of a course to follow, the arenas are open enough that the players can pick their own path.
