• the game has a dedicated producer to make sure everything is done on time and comes well together
• Unreal Engine 4 is used, so no engine swapping or content scrapping will happen
• Adrian Carmack knows how to get shit done and has been behind the art direction behind most of id's titles
• no DLCs or subscriptions, support for modding guaranteed
• realistic deadlines and amount of content delivered, no overpromise or overshooting the budget
• PC-first approach, so no corners will be cut to appease the console market
Well /v/, why haven't you backed the project yet?
This seriously looks more trustworthy than anything that has ever been on scamstarter previously.

>>335583148
Is no DLC confirmed? The guarantee of deadlines being met can only be confirmed when it actually happens.
>>335584353
No DLC bullshit is right there in the project's description. It's one of the bullet points.

You are a fucking retard if you hype let alone fund this

Those clever bastards. I have to hand it to them, that's a pretty unique idea.
>>335584456
>the original 'idea guy'
Yeah might sound like one in this but he can make levels and program them. Something a typical "idea guy" isn't known to be able to do at all.
Since Daikatana, John has run multiple dev teams that haven't burned. He is much more responsible and knowledgeable in this regard nowadays.
>>335583148
I don't fund anything that gets shilled here
>>335584903
you cant even name one game he has made without googling because they were all shit
>>335585046
They just weren't marketed at me. I'm a different demographic you see. Just like you.
I postponed my suicide for this. Fuck you and your sexy hair.
>>335585449

>>335584903

>Winter 2018
They've got a ways to go but it would seemail that they haven't started or are very early in development.
>>335586367
>they haven't started
The funniest thing is they DID start over a year ago. And still have nothing to show for it. What a fucking joke. Enjoy daikatana 2.0
Better off rebooting daikatana to how the game should've been instead of this shitty and vague kikestarter.
>>335583148
Least he doesn't have a release planned by the end of the year.
If the game's good I'll buy it but I have no plans on backing any kickstarter without a working prototype
How come they have nothing to show
>neglecting to mention that the game will have abstract level design (e.g. Doom and Quake) and that Romero will be designing every level
This is the most important part of the whole thing.
Is John Romero finally going to make us his bitch?
>>335583148
>UE4
>support for modding guaranteed
really?
>>335583148
I must say, his concept and ideas for Blackroom sounds fucking great, and he does have the reputation, cv and experience to work to his benefit.
But the whole fucking scamstarter meme is such a letdown.
I don't know if I dare to have hopes for it
>>335583148
>it didn't get funded within 24 hours despite all the media attention it got around the world
It's already dead.
Romero's mistake was thinking he will get the dosh just by showing up and saying "durr I'm John Romero and I'm going to make a new fps game so give me your money!"
Even as a known personality you actually need to sell your pitch to the people and that includes showing early game footage/play/mechanics and concept art. It's not sufficient to literally just be the ideas guy.
You need to show a proof of concept. Even I myself who wants this to happen and wants it to be good so badly and respects the man who contributed so much to the fps genre and is not just a "LEL DAIKATANA xDDD meme-man" is sceptical and hesitant. Now imagine how normies feel about it.
I don't know whether it' shis ignorance or arrogance, but he should have known better as he already has two failed kickstarters behind him.
>>335588201
>all those retards who fell for this
Summer is early
Is this the thread where we pretend that old school FPS died out for no reason?
>>335586367
>Winter 2018
There's only 32 days in the kickstarter and he was very clear that if they don't hit the $700,000 then the project would be very unlikely to go ahead.
>>335588660
>then the project would be very unlikely to go ahead.
No, he outright said it won't happen - ever, if they don't hit the 700k goal.
Why shouldn't yo be excited about this? Are you so devoid of joy that you can't even get the slightest bit happy that someone wants to make a game like this?
You don't fucking lose anything if this fails ffs why is /v/ full of such nofun misers that can't look forward to anything?
>We stand to lose nothing if it fails therefore we should completely ignore it incase it fails
You're all fucking idiots.
How does Kickstarter work? Can I just go on there and promise shit and take the money and run? What's stopping me?
>>335588665
>>335588906
I was there for the stream. He said they would see what they could do but it was very unlikely.
>>335588908
/v/ has been like this since tortanic

http://arstechnica.co.uk/tech-policy/2015/06/feds-take-first-action-against-a-failed-kickstarter-with-112k-judgment/
>>335588908
Don't be stupid, everyone here wants him to make a great game again.
But when he pulls the scamstarter meme out of his ass, and says that if we don't give him 700k doe lars, he won't make it, that sort of turns people off a little bit, wouldn't you say?
>>335589069
So just don't back it. I'm not going to but I am still capable of being excited for the possibility of this game happening. /v/ has literally forgotten how to have fun.
>>335588908
>>We stand to lose nothing if it fails therefore we should completely ignore it incase it fails
Well, nothing except for the people investing their money in it.
>>335583148
>•
Are you even trying?
>>335589140
Then don't be one of those people. It's not like he's going to refuse to sell the game to anyone who didn't back it.
>>335583148
So another class based arena shooter or something else because arena shooters are easy to make and /v/ does gobble all the dicks when it comes to arena shooters
>>335588962
For the most part yes.

>Can provide proof you're actively working toward the goal, even if you're half-assing it

You're good to go.
For a lot of the smaller gaming KSes, they just shit out an alpha and go "k we're out of money but we released something so KS will cover us bye"
>>335588962
Absolutely nothing, tyler.
>>335589342
He said the campaign is the main focus, and that the multiplayer won't be designed to be 'competitive'.
>>335583148
There's nothing substantial shown, I don't really want to throw money at nice ideas.
>>335587384
What does "abstract level design" even mean?
>>335589342
He's focusing on SP and coop but it's good to know you came here to shitpost about something you know nothing about and on top of that you somehow came to the conclusion that /v/ is actually looking forward to this game.
Congratulations on making the most pants on head retarded post on all of 4chan. How does it feel?
>>335588140
They're going to get funded. Just forget about it until the game is out and the hi/v/emind can tell you what to think of it.

>>335589826
>people with jobs
I know right my fellow NEET. Wageslaves are the worst kind of people.
>>335589665
Just play Doom and Quake and you'll quickly pick up on what it means.
Basically it means that the level architecture is arbitrary, no fucks are given if it makes sense in real life or not, the design is focused on the gameplay.
Wow he made literally one good game 30 years ago and he's still trying to use that as his only form of credibility
>>335588908
>Why shouldn't yo be excited about this?
Answering a negative question like that is pointless, because it requires dismantling a position that isn't defined.
'Why should you be excited' would be the valid question, because it isn't loaded with an impossible restriction, and after the specifics are established, negation can take place.
>>335589402
>Can provide proof you're actively working toward the goal, even if you're half-assing it
Kickstarter's FAQ makes it look like you don't even need that.
>Kickstarter does not guarantee projects or investigate a creator's ability to complete their project. On Kickstarter, backers (you!) ultimately decide the validity and worthiness of a project by whether they decide to fund it.
>When you back a project, you’re helping to create something new — not ordering something that already exists. There’s a chance something could happen that prevents the creator from being able to finish the project as promised.
>>335583148
I'm tentatively hyped. I think aside from Cyberpunk 2027 this is the only game I'm looking forward to.
Not feeling enough to back it but I'm hopeful. I got a little dissuaded by all the high value kickstarter packages which are asking for backer input, too many hands in the pot kind of thing bug we'll see.
>>335589826
>>335589917
i still can't believe he had to get a job at a gas station to make ends meet. Really sad.
>trusting Romero to run a project
He's worse than Schafer in this aspect. Romero really needs someone who will put his nose to the grindstone. Otherwise it wont get done in time.
If this gets funded, watch it get delayed constantly.
>>335590009
Then let me restructure my question.
What traumatic event happened to every single person on /v/ that made them literally incapable of experiencing joy?
I'll keep my eyes on it, but I'm not going to even consider backing anything until they show something substantial like some video of a simple demo of the game running (in other words, proof that they are actually working on something and it isn't just a concept anyone could have thought of). Well, even then I'm pretty sure I wouldn't back it.
Kickstarter by itself is a red flag and Romero threw his reputation down the proverbial toilet with Daikatana. For all I know this could just be him riding on the tail of this dumb "bring back the golden age of FPS" fad (which so far has barely produced anything worthwhile) and also taking advantage of the negativity surrounding the new Doom.
But eh, wait and see I guess? I haven't played it myself, but apparently the map he made recently was cool.
>>335590306
John pls go
>>335590257
Wow he worked at a Texaco in the 1960s?
>>335590257
A job is a job. At least he didn't start campaigning on tumblr going on about how the world is so unfair and can't get a job because he was mentally scarred by all the bullying he got.
Take notes kid. When a man needs to make money, a man goes out and finds a fucking job.
I'm glad there's a chance that we might one day get a game made by an actual man instead of a pink haired millennial piece of human trash.
>>335590257
JUST
Because they put a fucking countdown on their website, and even had a hype video for the countdown/announcement. Usually such things are accompanied by some semblance of a game. One level of gameplay maybe, shit a few rooms and fights even. What we got was a few pieces of concept art and promises. It was literally nothing.
I almost forgot the follow-up twitch chat which was basically a glorified "Wouldn't it be cool?" session.
>>335590154
Simply running away has a chance at landing you in a creek of shit like the lad at >>335589051. You need to provide some valid reasoning as to why your shit isn't getting finished, if you can make a prototype or two to keep the backers satisfied then you're golden.
The best way to use Kikestarter is using it to fund a thing you've already finished, then just sit on it for a few months and release "progress updates" as a smokescreen. Then release ahead of schedule, you'll make a name for yourself in addition to getting free money for doing literally nothing
What i'm looking at?
Give me some video or demo first, heck, even few faje screens will be good.
>>335590306
You ought to be grateful for the schooling, tough little cookie.

>>335592013
no, it's a gamble
>>335592013
No, kickstarter only takes the money if/when the goal is reached
>>335592013
no you haven't technically given them any money yet. once it reaches its goal they will take the money.
>>335583148
Haven't backed because going to back early next month when I get my salary.
>>335584725

>>335592013

Fuck off retard. People who play these games do not want these characters, and they are only being added to pander to these fucking faggots. Do you seriously think there weren't gay characters in games before 2010?
>>335592974
Then there's this guy unironically replying to nonsense
>>335592934
"Classic FPS" has me worried.
The announcer/taglines that were used sound very retro/80s/90s.

It works if it's a single guy or small team good idea and the know how, but can't afford to take the time off work to actually make the game. For actual studios or people who are already established in the video game industry, it's basically spitting in your face.
Still more hyped for this than Doom though.
>>335595205
I don't think it's the phrase itself. It's just that, coupled with the fact that Daikatana was pretty shitty and did not make anyone Romero's bitch, it became memetic
>>335599215
Except if you bought the game, he did make you his bitch.
>>335599657
Nah the point back then was that the game was so hard the creator "owned" the player. Romero really wanted to make a hard game, harder than any other shooter on the market. He even went as far as to say that Daikatana will be the ultimate FPS experience or something like that.

what happens to the consumer if the game doesn't get funded? does the money go back to your account?

What the fuck are you doing Romero? This does the opposite of building trust.
>>335602884
The money doesn't leave your account until the game gets successfully funded. So you are only really reserving your pledge. If a project fails, nothing happens and the money never gets transfered.
>>335583148

Both romero and carmack are filthy fucking rich, why the fuck are they kickstarting this shit, if youve got faith in a project and the means to fund it yourself you fucking should then recoup the costs afterwards, greedy fucking cunts....if this game turns out to be shit hot it will be the first fucking game i pirate in 7 years, just to spite these bastards.
I have a rule that I'll only contribute to a crowd funder if there's no other way that the project will happen if I don't, or if it has some top artbook that I can be pretty sure I'll actually get.
If I can free ride then I will, but I'm willing to give Romero one last shot before he kills himself. He worked on some good games before he got shitlisted into mobile by fucking up managing Daikatana.
>>335610815
Romero was aucting shit off before moving to Ireland. I wouldn't count on him being filthy fucking rich at all.
Adrian got fucked out of a lot of the value of his id shared by John and gang.

SO you're saying i should give money so that someone can make a game i don't even know if ill like after its done as long as i cant know what the fuck is in their heads and what they want to make. And in the end ill have to give money again in case i want to play. Its also scumstarter the cringeworthiest site of all.
how about gtfo

I think the bulletpoints prove that Romero isn't the only one who's managing the project or that he hasn't gained project management experience.

Made Aliens Colonial Marines.
Tried to convince people Duke Nukem Forever was a good game

Blackroom's campaign is off to a great start. I can only expect a trainwreck if they already fuck up PR 24 hours after the game was announced.

DNF wasn't a good game, but it wasn't a bad game either. People just assumed it would be a revolutionary addition to the genre.
>>335614726
Any time a game switches engines in development you should run for the door and never look back.
>>335613541
I never played it. Was it really that bad?
>>335583148
>• the game has a dedicated producer to make sure everything is done on time and comes well together
>• no DLCs or subscriptions, support for modding guaranteed
>• realistic deadlines and amount of content delivered, no overpromise or overshooting the budget
>• PC-first approach, so no corners will be cut to appease the console market
Somehow I doubt it. Also

Y'know, in the age of Ubisoft I'm not even sure that its level of brokenness is even that notable.

You mean that guy that made Daikatana right?
>>335613056
>>335613276
Is it running ok now? It worked in gzdoom for me
>>335615401
It's playable with a community patch now. It's actually a good game with broken AI, but you can now disable the companions. Give it a try.

If I was Fukushima I would filter and permaban little Gen Z Millenial fagglets such as yourself who thoughtlessly and casually meme off by parroting each other about Romero and Daikatana, despite 99.99% of you little Gen Z fagglets never having even played it.

Just make it so the site doesn't load for mobile devices.
It would solve so many issues.

Not to mention the fact that Eidos pumping all their money to Ion Storm was a leading factor for Core Design rushing their Tomb Raider games at the eve of the millenium, eventually resulting in their shutdown and rise of the modern QTE-ridden Tomb Raider shit.

yeah i got it to work with zdoom. it was just outputting black with opengl i guess.
took me awhile to beat, i died4times. very nice, bit difficult for a forth level but really fun. i hope blackroom is this good
>>335617078
i still need to play that, cant fucking wait
>>335619927
The fucking indian-jew still having his touch and i hate him for this. I get fun with his two last maps.
>One of the unique features of BLACKROOM is that in addition to an arsenal of lethal weapons, you also have the Boxel, a device that lets you alter the reality of BLACKROOM itself. Initially intended as a debug tool for developers and testers of BLACKROOM, the Boxel gives you a variety of tools to give you an edge against your opponents. Some examples of the Boxel in action are below:
>Temporarily freeze time in the simulation
>Glimpse through walls
>Open locked doors and other obstacles
>Interact with objects in your environment (such as the explosive barrel above)
>Modify weather and atmosphere
>Display important information about your environment
>Trigger audio “developer diaries” with clues about hidden areas in the level
Uh, so how will they incorporate it into the gameplay without slowing down the pace? Doom, Quake, etc. weren't exactly the kind of games where you stop to look at your PDA like in Fallout 3/NV/4, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., etc. There was the map feature, but that's not exactly the same. Although it may be cool for gimmick levels(change weather/environment a few times to beat the boss).
>>335618752
Worse part is eidos pumping money into the wrong ion storm division while the Austin studio was making dues ex and trying to publish timesplitters at the time.

(For those that wonder:)
He's a huge collector of old things and has this entire gas station from decades ago as history pieces.

I hope it does, because I'm genuinely interested in seeing this game happen.

i meant those cracks. you can see it in e1m4b too, except those are all pitfalls. here, those cracks will hurt you. theres nothing like that in the original doom levels i cant recall
>>335620976
We'll find out, I'm thinking it'll have a big week and then taper off. Rich folks will pledge in for all that high end shit but I figure the regular people are gonna go for the 30 dollar digital copy which means they're going to need a lottttt of backers to reach their 700k mark. Who knows though, I could be wrong. I just feel that his base crowd of funders will be older gamers who get a wave of nostalgia thinking of his other games and new gamers won't care, plus the stream for the game seemed to be a fluffed up brainstorm session and the lack of any footage or gameplay makes me nervous.

•Washed up has-beens cashing in on their name
•Romero is a no-talent relentless narcissistic manipulative sociopath who rode john carmack to success
•Exploiting social media
•Relentless shill campaign
•UE4 is dogshit garbage and has a tickrate of -20
•John Carmack was the original programmer
•Adrian is a shitbag ARTIST who was given a job by his talented rainman brother
Can't wait to watch this catastrophe crash and burn worse than daikatana.
fuck off shill
>>335611034
Looking at how fat Romero is, he's not exactly starving. Is he still married to Brenda? If so, he's also getting her money. Did that woman move to Ireland as well or...? Tell me some nasty rumors please.
>>335627545
>bullet points
>Romero is a no-talent relentless narcissistic manipulative sociopath who rode john carmack to success
he has released several doom levels that prove this wrong. he is still capable of creating great levels
>John Carmack was the original programmer
what is the relevance?
>Adrian is a shitbag ARTIST who was given a job by his talented rainman brother
Adrian is a good artist and isn't related to john carmack
>>335627538
He literally went and took screenshots of article titles talking about his game, kek.
>>335590757
It's going to be like prime were your able to scan fucking everything.
>>335590757
We should demand some sort of prototype on his twitter or something. He has the engine and an artist, he's been programming all his life, he should just be able to make something real quick.
so how the fuck do you play wads in doom? got the ultimate in steam and downloaded zdoom, moving a .wad into zdoom does nothing.
>>335590726
The problem with that tactic is that first of all you need to hit the goal, might be finicky to hit that sweet spot of loads of emone with out failing to meet the requirement.
Second you still have a lot of work if you spend time on making extras for backers that have put down loads of money. So either you can only charge up to 60 bucks or end up having to put in extra characters/story or a bunch of merchandise
>people on /v/ are unironically talking about supporting a Kickstarter project
>what is Mighty No. 9, what is Broken Age, what is the Ouya
It's like you faggots never learn your lesson.
>>335630506

He's criticized the ouya before even.
