>First person platforming

Why is this allowed
>>
That was probably the worst part of Doom, but it wasn't the worst I have seen overall. The original half life had some REALLY bad platforming, and Turok 1 was even worse.
>>
>>344837017
would you rather all the levels be 2 dimension corridors?

what a stupid fucking thread
>>
>>344837017
I enjoyed the platforming in D44M. Although I also enjoyed the driving sections in HL2, so my opinion may be invalid.
>>
There's nothing wrong with first person platforming unless it's extremely precise which it isn't so stop being a baby

Jumping in Doom 4 isn't even remotely difficult and things are clearly marked as to where to go.

I liked it. The build up as you were climbing the tower to get that bitch was great, and it's not like the platforming doesn't tell you where to go, so quit your whining.
>>
>>344837017
Don't know a shit about this game, but
>It literally looks like Blast Pit from Half-Life
Also, no wonder why is shit, with that horrible FoV.
>>
>>344837979
you can increase it to 120 plus on pc

but op must be a console cuck.
>>
>fps platforming

Never understood the problem. It's easy as fuck to judge a safe distance and ledge climbing makes it even easier. These are probably the same people who struggled with Xen.

Go play some Sven Coop climbing maps and get back to me on 'platforming'.

Fucking great, OP's faggot.
>>
>>344837017
>there was no point in the game where you air comboed glory kills together to get across a gap with the glory kill distance ruin

Shit like this is why the game was bad.
There was nothing exemplary about it.
>>
>>344837017
I didn't really mind that part and in fact found kind of cool traversing a huge tower like that, but it would have been a nightmare without double jump.

I loved the platforming because the controls are good

Classic Doom had plenty of platforming, but it consisted of high speed falling onto things, how about you practice your timing instead of complaining on here.
>>
>>344837125
>Original half life had some really bad platforming
When? Only time I remember platforming at all was the bottomless pit box room, but I thought that was pretty neat since the box's swayed around and shit
>>
Makes for some hella epic vertical level designs
>>
>>344837017
ha! you ever play destiny? makes this look like Marry-o.
>>
I thought D44M platforming was fun and added tons of depth into the levels with vertical combat and exploration.

Maybe you're just a faggot, OP?
>>
>>344837017
Halo has the best.

you can fuck with the FOV even on consoles.

I like 90 in single player games :v)

Because that's the direction they chose to go with the series.

Are you autistic or something?
>>
>>344845053
I never understood this tendency either. What, they think casuals are less likely to pick the game because "oh, I haven't played the previous three ones"?

Actually I think it worked really well and did wonderfully to provide quiet time in between combat sections.

I enjoy 1st Person Platforming and do better than I would in 3rd Person
>>
>>344845053
Calling it Doom 4 would make a little less sense than just calling it DOOM. It doesn't continue from Doom 3 and Doom 3 never continued from Doom 1/2. While DOOM kind of continues from 1/2, I don't think it's a direct continuation and there's a huge difference in style and gameplay from the 3 previous Doom games so using the reboot title of DOOM makes the most sense.

I agree.

>>344837017
First person is the most natural view point for anything, including platforming. I don't see how anyone has more trouble with this stuff than in games where the camera is out of your control.

The upgrade system and collectibles are much worse.

First person platforming is fine.
First person platforming when your FoV is too small is not fine. Or when your body has a hitbox, and a lot of jumps is missed because your "legs" hit the platform with their scrawny ass invisible bones.

I replayed it recently. It's no so bad when you're an adult, and the removal of the fog-of-war in the rerelease makes those leaps of faiths less ridiculous.
>>
>>344848782
It's not bad now, but doing it as a kid without the experience you've gained so far + the N64 controller was hell on earth for that 100% completion
>>
>>344848678
Yeah people who use third person view in real life are real chumps. But why is it not so in vidya? I don't need to 'see' myself, I am where I am and I know a platform needs to be below me or I'll drop.
>>
It's called a first person shooter for a reason. Platforming just makes it try to seem like more then what it is.
>>
It's incredibly easy in Doom though.
