(with smaller version of trailler) this game looks fuxX0ringly awesome. but, does anyone here (*looks in titsworth courier's general direction*) know if trent reznor did the sound for it? i remember reading that he was, and watching an extensive interview (it'd be nice if someone still had a link to that page) in which he said he was. but, everything i can find now says he dropped it. that'd be a pretty big disappointment. but, meh... the game still looks fucking badass. peep the trailler. |

can someone put some pics up here, i cant access those sites from this computer... |

I heard some ID-guys told that the only mission with the game was to scare people as much as possible |
||||||||

This large trailer's taking ages, even with a 3mb connection... probably worth the wait though. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it really is. but... from the looks of it, if you want to play the game, be ready to upgrade your computer. it streamed fine for me this morning, but i guess word is getting around and their bandwidth is quickly drying up. |

Heh, I'm at work on a P4 with decent spex but my home PC wouldn't be able to run Doom 3 in a month of Sundays. I was just curious to see the latest footage. Which I couldn't, as once it finished downloading it came up with an error 10 seconds into it. Fucking bastard, I'll have a look when I get home. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
it goes fine for me too... I'm on 10 mbit though (Studentnetwork) gonna watch this. I hope they incorporate some story in their games soon, cause just like with porn, the brain needs to be a part of everything. So far DOOM has been nothing but shallow games... |

take screenshots, people! post them here! |

|

sorry... without some special software, you cannot grab screenshots from movies... |

this is not so differnt from the trailer that was put on the www last spring. But it's a bit different, and has of course got better gfx. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this game is fucking scary. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and I'm only gonna play the game if it has a multiplayer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes you can. control panel > display > settings tab > trouble shooting tab > slide 'hardware acceleration' bar all the way to "none" then, you should be able to do a screen grab. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oops, after you go to the settings tab, you need to click the 'advanced' button. |
||||||||

i can't post pics -without hacking- to this board, or else i would. |
||||||||

I can't wait for doom 3 to come out, and anyone who wouldn't play the single player is a baffoon. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that was news to me! but now I have closed the video and everything. thanks for the tip though! |

it looks ok, but i think half life 2 will be better |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
single player is boring. Multi player is feckin ace. The only worthy multi player ive played is sof2 though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wow nice! but it doesnt feel like doom. :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didn't like the actual half-life 1 all that much. counterstrike multiplayer was badass. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it actually does in the trailler |
||||||||
|
|

I don't agree... For me DOOM, unlike most other FPS was about running around in really narrow corridors, feeling a bit claustrophobic... It's a bit like that, but the roof / cieling is too high imo... but I can't really make a statement until the game is out and I've played it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's a bit like that [claustrofobic, like the previous DOOM games], but the roof / cieling is too high [in DOOM III] imo... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
will it bring back some of the older dooms' baddies and weapons, or will it be all new? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'll never understand why people put down singleplay so much.. I happen to enjoy scripted storylines instead of just pointless fragfests with no deeper enjoyment possible. Don't get me wrong, multiplayer can be fun for getting to "kill" real people (bigget challenge versus fighting only computer AI), but I never touch the multiplayer option until I've finished the singleplayer part of any game. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
looks like it'll have a lot of the old guys. the zombie looking skinny fucks that shoot fireballs with their hands, and the flying skulls both make appearances in the trailler. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree completely. i just never could get sucked into the half-life singleplayer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it will feature some redone enemies (remeber the imps? and you probably thought they were scary then, I know I did), as well as new enemies. The same is true for the weapons I think (I know some of them are returning, such as the plasma rifle, shotguns, and BFG to say the least). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
most FPS are really about shooting. Nothing else. I mean most have some storyline, but mostly it sucks... Games like Resident Evil/Silent Hill on the other hand... are awesome (I haven't played the Silent Hill games yet! =/ ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
...and Half-life has one of the best storylines in FPS history, if not THE BEST. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the original doom was the best game ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm not arguing. just saying that I couldn't get into it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
far from... It was great considering it was amazing when it came out and had a nice atmosphere to it. But since it lacks storyline it can never be "the best game ever"... It was good though, but I'm not sure the game only had a good influence on the gamingmarket, since it showed gamingcompanies they could create games with lots of violence and no storylines that still sold lots of copies. Marathon (1) is suppose to have one of the best storylines in FPSes, I really wanna play that game! (though it was only released for mac) |
||||||||

i'm not arguing. just saying that I couldn't get into it. no! don't get me wrong! It's just that if you enjoy playing singleplayer FPS, it's weird you didn't get into Half-life which is one of the best singleplayer FPSes ever... well the multiplayer-part (if you include CS) must be one of the best aswell :) |
||||||||

"It's just that if you enjoy playing singleplayer FPS, it's weird you didn't get into Half-life which is one of the best singleplayer FPSes ever..." yeah I was kind of thinking that myself. HL does have a great storyline, but I liked System Shock 2's just as much. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
o'course, SS2 is more like an FPS/RPG hybrid so I'm not sure if it still counts. ;) |
||||||||
|
|

|

actually, doom and wolfenstein 3d are probably the only FPS's that i've ever really gotten into. but, i really liked the multiplayer counterstrike. course, that was only one summer when everybody left my college campus, and i had the run of the best computer labs around. playing counterstrike on a silicon graphics workstation is very nice. |

I can imagine that :) actually, doom and wolfenstein 3d are probably the only FPS's that i've ever really gotten into. well there are movies that mainly contains "shallow" action, and people like them to. I'm not saying games need to have a storyline - in fact most of the (non-adventure/rpg) games I enjoy playing has very little storyline (I play mostly old games - Console/Amiga/PC). But (e.g. in the genre of FPS) I'm sure a game will turn out better if it's based on a story and then has a game created around it. Rather than the opposite. There are different types of games, some are more abstract (without storylines) and some are more concrete (with storylines). And FPS-games aren't very abstract, so they have some kind of storyline, good, bad or quite unexistent (e.g. quake/doom/etc). |

Well I must add that I don't consider ID to be good storytellers, but that I think they're great at creating atmospheres and good gameplay (and of course making all the coding behind everything). I'm sure they get scripts sent to them, and I think they should consider making a game out of someone elses script, atleast try it once. I'm not talking about making games (gameplay) "complex", I'm not a fan of complex games myself, but a good storyline doesn't mean the gameplay needs to be complex... |

this game is going to rule, especially for mac, its gonna look amazing. |

ok to answer a few questions: no, trent is not doing the sound. he was originally, but hes been spending alot of time on the new nin project, so all of his work for doom 3 has been scrapped. yes all/most of the baddies from the original doom game should be returning, because it has been said by carmack that doom 3 is actually going t ojust be a 3d updated remake of the first game. o yeah and you dont need THAT much of a beast of a system to run a game. i have the alpha that was leaked a while ago and i run a athlon xp 1700+, 32 mg geforce 2 gts and 512 mb ddr-ram and i can run it pretty well with some tweaking of my settings, and thats with the unoptimized version. sure, it may not look as terrific as it should, but it saves me a good $500-600 in upgrades |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|

dammit trent! his work on quake was wonderful. this is all a bunch of hooey!! *stomps off* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
YES!!!! this is my most anticipated game EVER! we played the 3 level leak about a year ago, which was utterly fantastic. sure, it only ran at 2 frames per second, but it looked absolutely gorgeous, and i'm sure they made the necessary tweaks to the graphics engine. the bump-mapping is delicious, nothing like shooting a zombie with a shotgun and watching each piece of flesh that was hit by scatter shot tear off the body. absolutely amazin. |

i'm gonna have to disagree and say the deus ex games have the best storylines for FPS's. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
deus ex I'm not following here. Please enlighten me (I might be missing out on something here - I am not really into new games, since a couple of years). Also I didn't mean that halflife had the officially best storyline, just that it had been acknowledged for having a really good one. Have you played Marathon 1? it's story is supposed to be very good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Marathon!!!!!! I had 1, 2 and Marathon Infinity (which was by far the coolest), the story line was fucking brilliant, and the game play and sound and everything else was and still is ahead of its time.. haha.. those games are old. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I want them! but Marathon (1) is only for Mac! =( For thoose who don't know; Bungie who created Marathon later created Halo. I haven't played Halo, yet, but I know they're good (Bungie, that is). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
http://www.bungie.com/products/infinity/infinity.htm That was the BEST game for mac ever... I bought it a long time ago.... lost it unfortunatly, so maybe its in my house still? hmmm that would rule. |
