So hows /v/ liking the doom beta? While not quite the classic arena shooter we want its decent. Apart from the loadouts and bullet spongey players, its pretty enjoyable. That being said player movement speed needs a bit of boost.

Im primarily interested in the game for the single player but the multiplayer seems to be more than just tacked on trash, a few patches and it could be great.

Thoughts?
>>
Have they added in any new guns since the closed beta?
>>
>>334363395
Didnt play closed, im at work so I cant really check but off the top of my head:
Super shotgun
Lightning gun
Plasma rifle
Rocket launcher
Sniper
Heavy machine gun
And one more that I cant recall as I havent unlocked it yet
>>
>>334363568
Doesn't seem like it, in that case.

What a shame, I'll probably play it anyway though.
>>
>>334363267
It's gonna be super mediocre console shit.

The SP is going to be all linear, with PainKiller style obligatory combat arenas you need to clear in order to proceed. On top of that, there's fucking stupid mission objective reminders AND a direction compass on your screen ("Find a yellow key", "Use yellow key on yellow door"...).

Then there's that disgusting shit, like tons of "cinematic" first-person cutscenes for everything from pressing switches to picking up guns, and goddamn Perk AND level-up systems, because you just can't start with 1993-tier movement speed and ammo-caps in 2016.
>>
Can't even play it, The game crashes when a game starts everytime...
>>
>>334363851
For what it's worth with the picking up guns cutscenes, that was completely scripted. As in, when you look at the video closer, he already had all those weapons he picked up later in the weapon wheel available earlier. Also pretty sure they were running a "cheat" where you couldn't fall below 10 health.
>>
>>334363851
Yeah the whole perk thing is dumb but eh, New Order had that and it was barely noticable. The whole cutscene for actions thing is a nitpick at best. Also if you acquire a gun for the first time its just there to show it off like, "Ooo look at this gun ooOooOo" but other than that who really cares?

Movement speed is pretty good, not quake fast but faster than any modern shooter. Objective markers are a thing now in games now, they have been for a while and at the very least theyre not that intrusive based on what the E3 gameplay showed us. Im willing to bet you can turn them off as well, you can turn off the damage numbers in multiplayer.
>>
If you wanna play anything close to a fast shooter mp i recommend dirty bomb, a game that doesnt get enough attention. This piece of shit is not worth my time.

I played one match and thought it was alright. Don't really have the time or attention to spend on it. The one consistent thing I have seen around /v/ and /vg/ are people making shit up about the game based solely on conjecture.

That's the point of the demon, though. It's supposed to be something that you can turn the tables with if your team is losing, and it creates a point of contention within the game.

A good team that plays together can pretty easily kill a demon, too. And after that they get the rune because the team who just had it is locked out of it for a brief moment.

That's why the team who is not in control of the revenant should group up in the most open space on the map and make their stand there. The revenant is a big target and is easily gunned down in the big grotto of Infernal, for example.

All this and more on a random drop that you get after a match that only works for one match! Worse than that trash system Battlefront had where the power ups you unlocked had a limited amount of uses and the amount of uses didn't after every match.

Why does /v/ keep trying to make this Doom into Quake. IT'S DOOM. The original Doom 1 and 2 multiplayer was insanely nooby.

All it was was super shotgun and rocket spamming with no aiming and one hit kills, no form of movement other than moving really fast meaning no advanced techniques like rocketjumping or bunnyhopping. You could not even move the screen up and down.

If Quake was being released like this, then /v/ would have a right to complaint but at the moment, your arguments are redundant.

Why does Doom 1's multiplayer have to do with anything?

On it's own, D44M is fucking shit. Its fucking slow. Loadouts are fucking retarded. There are no advanced movement mechanics. The rocket launcher is by and far the best weapon, there is no semblance of balance. The map design is shoddy at best. It is unoptimized trash despite not even looking that good. There is mouse smoothing out the ass that you can't change. 2 weapon limit.

Everything about this game is fucking garbage. It is literally worst than Halo.

>>334371659
Every team deathmatch I've played so far has been decided by which team gets the revenant. It'd be one thing if the powerup was announced with enough time for teams to scramble to the point, it'd be like some kind of impromptu king of the hill, but so far whichever team is lucky enough to have one or two dudes nearby when it spawns is going to be the one that gets it and is going to be the one that facestomps the other team. I like the multiplayer for the most part until this powerup shows up, then it just turns into a giant shit show where one player dominates and decides the fate of the match.

So far I've only had two or three matches that were something someone could argue was close, but aside from that every game has been totally lopsided. Even winning like this isn't particularly enjoyable unless you're the one playing as the revenant; nothing you do is all that important or influential compared to the guy that's gonna get a shitload of kills cuz he was in the right place at the right time.

>>334379991
>Its fucking slow
It's not Quake speed for a reason and it's faster than COD and Halo which is all the game needs. I wish speed was not lost from double jumping though.

>Loadouts are fucking retarded
Not too bad but let the noobs get the easy modes. A classic arena can be released later for the smaller population.

>There are no advanced movement mechanics
There might be if the leaks are true with strafe jumping. However this is Doom, not Quake. Even jumping is an advanced technique compared to the original Doom.

>The map design is shoddy at best
You need to explain this. I had no problem from the two alphas, closed beta and open beta. You can use map control and memorizing the health and armour pickups has helped me greatly.

>It is unoptimized trash despite not even looking that good

I would try making the callout 30 seconds so there's a chance for a real clusterfuck of a fight over it.

Less is more.

I don't mind the custom loadouts. I think it's a great way to customize gameplay and tailor it to your gameplay style. Though For me, that tends to be super shotgun, super shotgun, super shotgun.

Because the game needs a fundamental change in the core gameplay of the multiplayer mode, which is simply cannot be done in 28 days, you dumb faggot. You would have to remake most of the game. Loadouts is just a part of the problem.
>>
>>334384632
They'll probably add something along the lines of "classic mode" removing load outs, demon gameplay, perks, and (personally, I just want this but,) shitty armor that looks like it's ripped from Halo

The Vega AI announcer files had him saying "Classic" among other things in the previous beta. Thing is though, there was like 20 different modes in the voice files, including racing and some other shit.

It might have been scraped from an earlier build or maybe it's something for down the line. Who knows?

A mode without the bullshit might make the multiplayer worth playing but why would we ever have nice things?

wait a game that is mainly singleplayer rather than multi means people are going to buy it?

People love cod, and dedicated servers hardly would make any difference in the core of the gameplay. The Doom multiplayer is just simply bad as it is, nothing can save it.

Easy fix. Remove loadouts, perks, demon runes. You can keep the power weapons in. They're essentially the UT Redeemer. Maybe reduce the Gauss Cannon to 2 or 3 shots worth of ammo.

That doesn't fix any of the other criticisms but it fixes the primary, glaring ones.

And it's easy to do.

Quake Live has had user hosted servers for like almost a year now and it actually has a playerbase. If you're playing vanilla Q3 there's pretty much no reason not to move to QL if you're on Windows.

Suprr shotgun and melee break this game. Homing melee always breaks console fpses and this is not different, on any map you just need a super shotgun and melee right after every shot.

Played it for nearly two hours. Didn't have much fun right out of the gate but I didn't want to judge the game based on a few rounds.

Not having advanced movement and going with loadouts and ebin level ups is what kills the game. What they did with quad damage (giving everyone else wallhack) and those stupid demon spawns that completely break the flow of a match are the other big offenders.

Nobody is vying for map control, everyone just runs around like a headless chicken unless it's that 'moving capture point' mode. It makes everything just so bland.

They should just remove the Rocket launcher and make it a pick up. It's useless as a primary weapon, and that way they can buff it to be actually useful.

God damn. I feel like originally all these weapons were pickups, but they shoehorned them into a loadout system and thereby nerfed them to be "balanced".

imho you should start with the super shotgun or even the regular shotgun and have to find the plasma rifle/AR/rocket launcher on the map. Then they could buff those weapons so they aren't peashooters.

ALso, best thing about the beta - being able to remove the hit-point indicator.

I get these "awards" (pic related) almost every round. Just goes to show how little people care or understand the importance of map control.
I was a decent QIII player and that took me years to get on that level. I too feel like I've already touched the skill ceiling with my fingertips. It's extremely shallow and painfully geared towards console play.

If you don't know what the "awards" are it's basically:
>Longest time alive
>Most jumping
>Surviving a lot of encounters
>Collecting the most armor
and other shit like that.

I've been playing with people my level and obvious noobs but the result was pretty much always the same.
