The gunplay is good. The music is bad. The game is literally one artificial arena after another where you fight waves of enemies over and over with no real variation. You spam the attack button, hop a lot, and spam the glory kill button. This game is so boring it makes me want to kill myself. It's the worst FPS game I've played in years. How is this an acclaimed videogame? It's basically Serious Sam 3 and Shadow Warrior's shittiest parts mashed together and held together with pentagrams and the worst music Mick Gordon has written in his entire career. It makes Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 retrospectively look like a well designed and well paced videogame, and that is an astounding feat.

And this is the real sticking point. Doom 4's basic game design is the complete antithesis of every single Doom game ever made. They've taken those awful sections in Shadow Warrior where lots of demons spawn after you destroy something, and built a game around it. It's baffling. What were iD Software thinking?

The music isn't great. It's tryhard, mind-numbing metal. The music that plays during combat is the worst offender. Mick Gordon's work on Killer Instinct was a lot better.

This has been going on for a while. You take a classic FPS IP, and make a game that steals all its mechanics blatantly from another game. Give it a "retro" lick of paint, and people will suck your dick and praise you for "taking the FPS genre back to its roots".

Wolfenstein: The New Order is fucking NOTHING like any of the Wolfenstein games before it. The "roots" are completely fictional. The game blatantly lifts everything from the melee system to the basic combat encounters (Hi there, big armoured guy with a minigun) from the 2012 Syndicate game. It's staring people right in the face.

But people just don't care that these games are blatant clones of other games, and are not a return to the roots in any sense of the term. They only care about games being unoriginal when they don't like them. The hypocrisy is insulting.

No. The early Doom games have you proceeding through levels. This locked room "kill all enemies to unlock the door to the hallway that leads to the next room where you have to kill everything to unlock the door" bullshit is alien to the Doom series.

Old Bullfrog's Syndicate wasn't even an FPS, though.

At least xcom the bureau got rebadged as being far away from an xcom game.
>>
>>340490996
It doesn't change the gameplay at all though. You shoot monsters and then you proceed. Only think it does is makes cheesing everything harder by closing you down with the monsters you have to kill, ideally there should have been a timer added on top of that, and glory kills that add more time to that timer but are harder to pull off.

I'm not talking about Syndicate. Starbreeze's Syndicate wasn't pretending to be a "return to roots" or "giving the fans what they want" or any of that shit. It was an FPS game set in the Syndicate universe.

Wolfenstein: TNO is by ex-Starbreeze people, and it lifts a lot of game design ideas from Syndicate. It has almost no game design similarities to old Wolfenstein games. It's a Syndicate clone pretending to be a "return to roots, muh classic FPS revival" game.

I don't care about the music, but I had the same sort of impression before I bought it from seeing gameplay videos. I'm very comfortable on money so I thought why not get it pretty cheap from a key site and try it out.

Yep, after putting in 10 hours and completing it, it's exactly how I thought it would be, now I know my instincts are infallible. How this is praised as anything more than a 7/10 at absolute best just shows that people are desperate to latch onto "old school" FPS.

If the monster designs actually looked menacing instead of being elementary shiny spongebags, they followed a conventional approach to level design instead of bot-match-fuckhead-presence-arenas, and took out all the RPG-lite mechanic bullshit, then it could have been great. That's all they needed to do.

Are you fucking stupid?

In doom 1/2/plutonia/tnt, there were often certain areas that provided a better chance to fight enemies,so you'd lure them out of the room they start in to a spot where you have a tactical advantage.

Or areas you could aggro multiple groups into attacking each other, or, again, luring enemies to a spot (kiting, taxi-ing, whatever you newfags call it) where you'll have a better engagement.

Look up go2it, and tell me it would be fine as a "locked in room until you clear everything" kind of situation. Tell me honestly that it doesn't change the gameplay. Because it fucking does
>>
>>340490083
>Wolfenstein: The New Order is fucking NOTHING like any of the Wolfenstein games before it.

None of the Wolfenstein Games are alike.

Wolf 3D is so basic, it's hard to compare it to anything.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein is arcadey, but still grounded in that era.

2009 is Cawadoody with powers and some interesting weapons.

TNO plays nothing like the above.

>But people just don't care that these games are blatant clones of other games,

I don't think people care because the Syndicate Reboot was shit.
>>
>>340491768

>>
>>340491463
But Syndicate FPS had sound design. It was fast, it was thought out and fun while it lasted. TNO has you manually aiming on and then pressing a button to pick up each individual ammo pack, health or armour item, jesus. There is also a huge gaps in the game pacing where action stops completely and you are forced to do fetch quests and listen to shitty dialogue.

Locked down room still can have a positions with tactical advantage. It's just a room where you supposed to fight enemies. Core mechanics is to shoot and dodge projectiles that are fired at you. Also don't tell that there is no instances where you have to face a single monster in some corridor when you progress because there is. You just cling to these showdown rooms like it's something bad.

Actually, the game got a few middling reviews.

Every arena has a completely different layout and includes different tools to use (suck as launchers and teleporters). Each enemy type requires different tactics and has a unique moveset. There's no less variation than there was in the originals.

>You spam the attack button, hop a lot, and spam the glory kill button.
And in the older games you just spam the attack button, strafe a lot, and spam the attack button some more.

I am a diehard /mu/ psuedo patrician who will openly listen to post-ironic meta noise and enjoy it but even I can admit the Doom soundtrack was fucking brilliant.

I wouldn't listen it outside of the game but it was perfect for tensing up the fights and enhancing the low-HP adrenalin rushes you get on ultra nightmare.

I think you're just being contrarian.

There's literally nothing fresh about Doom, though. It's some of the most generic and non-innovative FPS design ever. It shamelessly steals from other FPS games instead of trying to make something new. It feels like a game designed to appeal to people who think that WWII FPS games are "fresh".

I think the biggest thing is that there's wwwwwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too few kill animations per context/character. They should have had 3 or 4 different executions per each angle of attack, weapon, proximity to a wall/pit/environment piece. I've literally seen the same execution four times in a chain and it makes it boring fast.

Yeah, you really have never played this game. The SS wrecks every non-boss enemy in the game.

Combine that with grenades, alt fire, and power ups, enemies die quicker than fucking Doom 2.

Bullet-sponge as a term does not mean "takes a lot of damage.

Bullet-sponge means that an NPC absorbs attacks from the player character, melee or projectile, with no visible effects, as if the damaging item were just being soaked up into the enemy to disappear. DOOM does not fall into this category because enemies visibly respond to being shot with recoils, blood splatter, etc.

Common usage from the origins of the term in the 00's when polygonal shooters started exploding and you could tell good shooters from bad by whether or not the devs bothered to put in NPC reactions to damage. If not, your bullets would simply disappear into their polygons/models. It's been bastardized over the years to just be used by youngfags to refer to any enemy with a lot of health, becoming basically a completely useless term that holds no actual value information on the game.

Should have used CryEngine instead of just hiring the lead graphics engineer from Crytek to make id Tech less shit.

Then if the definition has changed use the new one

Calling an enemy a bullet sponge for soaking a lot of bullets makes more sense then whatever ass pull you just did

>It's baffling. What were iD Software thinking?

They were thinking, since the level design is pretty laberinthine to begin with, they'd lock you in a room full of monsters so you could focus on them, instead of eating cheap deaths over getting stuck in the landscape, and getting lost.
Not the most elegant way to design that, but I can see their reasoning.

Thank fucking god they didn't. id Tech 6 is incredibly efficient for how great it looks, just like every other id Tech engine. Cry Engine has always ran like shit.

id Tech 5 runs like crap, and id Tech 6 has mysterious framerate drops on high end hardware. Id Tech 6 has no visible advantages over CryEngine in terms of performance and visuals.

>Then if the definition has changed use the new one

You missed the part "becoming basically a completely useless term that holds no actual value information on the game." Besides the definition hasn't changed just because some retards misuse it. So taking these into account, even if it did change there'd be no real use for it anymore since it holds no explanatory value towards the quality of the game.

>Calling an enemy a bullet sponge for soaking a lot of bullets
Is a completely empty statement that holds no informative connotations.

>makes more sense then whatever ass pull you just did
Learn your gaming history young one. And also the practicalities of language I suppose.

Now I'll let your autism have the last word it needs.

Where did this "Doom 4 is well optimised" meme come from? I've seen it running like shit on decent hardware with frame drops to 20fps in places. It's kinda like RAGE.
>>
>>340497476
>id Tech 5 runs like crap

Now that's a meme. Rage runs at 60fps on a fucking 9800gt. It is very efficient. Problem was ATI/AMD and their god awful OpenGL support. Which is STILL a problem.

Wolfenstein's performance is not great, and The Evil Within's performance is horrid because they had to hack in dynamic lighting. Who builds an engine without dynamic lighting support?

>You mom's laptop doesn't as decent hardware anon
I've seen severe frame drops on i7s with GTX 970s. There's definitely some sort of bug with the texturing system where it picks the wrong quality settings are you die, and stuff like that.

It's not even that fucking hard. It literally should have been the equivalent of normal. And the difficulty right below it is piss-fuck easy. It's almost two entirely different games.

Holy fuck you are retarded.

I've seen CS:GO run like shit on my brother's gtx970, what's your point? I have a gtx980 and the game runs around 80-90 fps on ultra at 1440p, looking much better than most other FPS that run worse.
>>
>>340498085
Your performance doesn't matter. "Optimization" is a meme, but the least important aspect is the game running fast FOR YOU. What really matters is the game running shit for OTHER PEOPLE.

Someone who builds a game without dynamic lighting. How is it the engines fault that hacked up Frankenstein versions of it runs like shit? Doom 1 runs like shit on Doomsday, is that id Tech 1's fault?

Jesus Christ. Show me proof of the game running bad on a gtx970 then, nigger.

Because of consoles there could only be so many monsters at a time before the consoles would start shitting themselves.

Now, this was true of Doom too, but because it was a bunch of 2D sprites the limit on how many enemies you could have at a time was much higher to the point it wasn't a problem, and most enemies could just be outright preplaced and hidden behind walls because they weren't a drain on resources since they were so simple.

The limit on how many screaming skullfucks a Pain Elemental could spew was something like 21 before it couldn't spawn anymore because it would slow down systems too much.
And if they did the whole 12 monster thing in DOOM if you just ran past them they'd have to despawn existing demons to spawn more as you progressed, which could lead to awkward situations. Either that or only have monsters exist if you're looking at them, which runs into its own problems.

I think Arenas were the best way to handle this problem of being designed for shitboxes. Not the best outcome possible, but probably the best overall way to design the game.
>>
I'm still playing the game and I like so far.

Not sure these are major complaints but it would have been nice monsters have clear sounding footsteps because I really need sound cues when getting sandwiched. And I tend to glory kill a lot because ammo is so sparse. If they've given me a decent amount of ammo to carry, I could have spent my time running than circle around an enemy until I can stagger it for ammo.

Other than that I love this new DOOM. Fast, arcadey and fun.
>>
DOOM isn't perfect.

But, at the risk of sounding like a shill, it IS pretty damn good, does an amazing job of getting into the spirit of the original Doom, even if it's not quite there mechanically, and I think it's worth a purchase on principle alone.

it's not EXACTLY what we want out of a game like this, but it's the closest we've gotten in decades, and supporting any more games like this is an absolute must, one way or the other. Not liking the new DOOM just because it locks you into arenas is missing the forest through the trees.

Hey guys, I just want you all to know I haven't played DOOM, but because I'm fucking OUTRAGED that it uses Denuvo and I can't pirate it, I have to splatter my salty cognitive dissonance shit all over the board.

Not a big PC gamer but I hope they change their minds on the "no mods" thing. I'll definitely double dip if they do. Although I think you guys are overestimating the amount of content it would get if mods were made possible. The original games got (and keep getting) tons of content because the games were relatively simple and custom stuff is easy to make. That won't be the case with the new game, no matter how good the tools are. Look at Doom 3 for an example of the amount of support the new game would likely get via mods.

>backtracking to artificially extend level length is a good thing

I'm about you but I played the old Doom and while it is awesome, there's some obsolete game design aspects to it that are not fun, and the constant backtracking is one of them. It kills the momentum.

Take your nostalgia glasses off.

>>340501714
This. If they do add full mod support it won't be a simple case of firing up Doombuilder 2 and going crazy

but man when they introduced the game with that e1m1 remix I came. if only the music stayed as good as that. the whole game should have been doom 1/2 remixes like that.
