RAGE 2 - Twisting Canyons - Crusher Nest - The Ruined Shaft -(Ark Chest, Datapad, Storage Container)

Rage 2 (stylized as RAGE 2) is a post-apocalyptic open world first-person shooter developed by Avalanche Studios with (creative) oversight of Id Software. It was announced by Bethesda Softworks on May 14, 2018 as a sequel to the sci-fi first-person shooter racing game RAGE, released in October 2011.

Plot
The game is set in 2165, thirty years after the events of the first game. Humanity has found a way to heal the world, turning regions of the Wasteland into lush jungles, wetlands and even tundra.[1] Trade is growing and a type of "Wild West" society is emerging.[2] The brutal ways of the old world still remain, however, and these new, delicate biomes are under attack by gangs that want to control their resources. The Authority has returned, waging war against anyone who won't follow their rule.[1]

The player assumes the role of Walker, one of the last Rangers in the Wasteland. After being robbed of his home and both his family and adoptive mother and mentor by the Authority, (the primary antagonists of the first game), Walker tears through the Wasteland to seek vengeance and to ultimately end the Authority's oppression.

Some characters from the original RAGE also return, such as Antonin Kvasir, Loosum Hagar and John Marshall.[3]

Campaign

Walker's home gets stormed by the Authority who have returned from obscurity after their defeat by John Marshall and the Resistance of the first game alongside the newly emerged "Arkists". The Authority attack en masse with their mutants, crushing the defenders of Vineland. All seems lost when a huge and unknown variant of mutant brings down the wall of the city and begins tearing its way through the defenders, however the famed Ranger Jersey arrives and promptly slams his motorbike into the beast before utilising his nanotrite abilities to get the upper hand in the combat. However before he can leap free of the Mutant, Jersey is clenched in the beasts fist, manages to throw a grenade into his opponents mouth and blowing the creatures head clean apart, unfortunately not before his own head was torn off in the mouth of his foe. Walker then takes Jerseys' armour and takes on the role of Ranger of Vineland himself.

Continuing to aid in the defense, Walker finally links up with Ranger Prowley, his "aunt" and mentor, who is rallying the remnants of the cities defenders against the Authorities relentless onslaught. As the combat rages on, through a breach in the wall it is revealed General Cross has survived the events of the first game and the Authority wars, albeit heavily augmented to the point where it appears his head is the only part of his body that is still organic.The General seems to remember Prowley, and along with the other first generation ark survivors, has her kidnapped for experimentation (likely to continue with mutant and nanotrite experiments first explored in the first game).

With the battle over and only twenty survivors of the city left alive, including walker and his close friend Lily, the two come up with the idea to have Walker enter Vineland's Ark and see if he can piece together any reason for why the Authority might have sought them out. Discovering a hologram of Prowley, Walker discovers he is the last living member of the Rangers of Vineland and is now tasked with bringing together the members of a group who can initiate Project Dagger, a plan designed to wipe out the Authority and General Cross once and for all. Regrouping with Lily at Vineland's ruined entrance, the two come up with a plan to return Loosum Hagar, John Marshall and Anton Kvasir back into the fold of the project and gain vengeance for the loss of their home.

The adventure takes Walker to both familiar and unfamiliar locations and to a landscape wholly changed since the original Rage.

Wellspring returns and locales such as Oasis and Gunbarrel which are mentioned in the original game are introduced for the first time as playable locations.

Gameplay
Many elements return from the first RAGE, including Vehicle Combat, Wingsticks and Mutants. Many of these elements have evolved between games; the Wingstick now has an enhanced tracking ability, and vehicles can be repaired and customized to a greater extent.

The Wasteland is a big place. You can take an airboat ride across the swamplands, explore a city that's been overtaken by vegetation, head into the deadly chasm known as “The Crack,” and even venture through mutant-infested sewers and high-tech Authority labs. Despite the vastness of the game world, RAGE 2 is completely free of load screens.
