So did any of you guys enjoy the Doom beta?
I didn't
>>333131635
Didn't get the beta?
I sure enjoy playing FPS games in slowmo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROQAB_klwiY
>>333131773
i got in, played it for a few hours and didn't enjoy it
>>333131535
The only thing I didn't like about it were the people that used shotguns as a crutch.
>>333131535
Has a lot of flaws but I played quite a bit of it. Decided to make a short fragmovie before the BETA ran out and played like 3 games to make it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6_WZG3u7eA
fucking loved it. Wish the double jump was a tad higher
>>333131860
Well it is still the beta. They should get rid of those flaws by the time of release.
>>333131838
Ah.
>>333132113
Doubtful. BETA's nowadays are just glorified DEMO's for hype.
>>333131535
For the first hour, then it became very apparent that it needs a good amount of tweaking. Glad it's just the beta. I really hope they improve it by release.
hoping...
No, it's shit.>>333132113
>Well it is still the beta.
Fuck you shillerman.
>>333134141
Game is on shelves in a month. Doubt we'll see much of an improvement
>>333131535
Keep it coming Marketer,I still not buying it.
Did I enjoy it? Well I maxed the rank in the beta, unlocked all I could, and used every weapon as much as possible. You'd think if I did that I'd enjoy it, which in a way guess I did, but it's just off man. I just want DOOM back, I want to be DOOM guy, with DOOM fists of demon slaying glory, not shoot enemy until he flashes, melee, then auto kill. Just feels soulless
>>333131535
I'M SUPER EXCITED TO PLAY ANOTHER FPS. Like, you have no idea.
>>333135586
You and your kind. I see you complaining about how the "new Doom isn't like the old" and "Doomguy is Masterchief" and all that. Well I don't see you on Zdaemon, boy! Yeah, you heard me! You want the old game back so much? FUCKING FIRE IT UP.
>like seriously why the fuck are there only like 4 real people playing old multiplayer Doom right now
>>333136195
AYYYY IT IS E ME MARIO AYYYY PIZZZA PASATA MAMA MIA
I loved it. If there's a large variety of guns in the full game, then I'll be convinced to buy it. Hope the multiplayer stays alive for a long time
>>333136195
Zandronum, dude.
>>333131535
>it's over already
>game is already gold and comes out in May
Failure of the century
>>333131535
Best multiplayer game ive ever played hands down
honestly thought it was one of the best fps multiplayer i've ever played
>>333131535
I was stupid enough to pre order MGSV, never again. Although I guess it came with ground zeros, so wasn't the worst thing ever.
i had fun
>>333137810
>Super Shotgun
does the player at least still reload it by punching the shells into the back?
>>333131535
I enjoyed it
the melee kills are immensely satisfying
>>333137882
yes, every time.
>>333136604
bull
>>333131535
It's alright, MP is more casual than I was expecting from an id game. Then again, they already have QL, no sense eclipsing that
>>333131535
I didn't like the loadout/perk bullshit, and the placement for pickups seems too random.
It's fun, but it's really hard to take seriously and the skill gap seems really, really fucking low.
>>333131535
got beta key for preordering that last wolfenstein game.
New doom game online seems boring as fug
I'll probably get it on PS4 since consoles are the only platforms that can sustain communities for games that aren't WoW or by Valve
I certainly enjoyed the beta, but the game is certainly not perfect. Some of the weapons are useless, wall hack on Gauss cannon is super fucking cheap, moving speed can be a little faster, and most of the hack modules are useless except for two of them. The good thing is that everyone including myself are bitching like crazy on all of Bethesda's forums so odds are they'll change some of these problems. Even if they don't fix any of the problems (which I pray to god they do) I did enjoy the beta just enough to by the final product when it's released and my closest friends are buying it as well so I'll have a blast playing online with them again. I can't wait for the single player and snapmap.
>Random demon rune spawn, you can get unlucky and have it spawn twice near the enemy team on TDM, completely fucking up your chances unless the guy playing Revenant is literally retarded
>Gauss cannon is an even more noskill "let me win" superweapon than the Q3 BFG - A literal railgun with a huge 150dmg splash on impact
>Double jump is fucking nothing, a tiny extra boost and you can only do it in the direction of the original jump, so no intricate air dodging
Other than that it's alright. I think melee kills are a bit too easy to pull off, the range is surprisingly long, you can mash to spam it and you can also cancel pretty much any animation with a bash. In the closed beta a lot of people were going for SSG + melee finisher from close, instead of SSG, reload, SSG, which I feel is more "Doom"
>>333131535
Ran like ass. Turns out my card wasnt supported or something.
Supposedly getting fixed on release but who knows.
>am skeptical
It's OK, but don't forget the MP isn't even by id. Passable MP (especially compared to fucking Rage), but this is still looking like a SP-focused game to me
>>333131535
It was OK / 10
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQEpd874j2Y
I fucking hate to play an FPS on a console
but, bethesda didn´t exchange my PSN code to a steam code...
>>333139437
>corpse doesn't react to nearby explosions
at least it's staying faithful to the source material
>>333131860
That looks pretty cool.
I honestly don't care that much about the online multiplayer. I just want this game to have a great SP, and a good local MP; and it seems like it has the potential to deliver.
>>333131535
Not terrible, but it wasn't that good either. Haste is what the normal speed needs to be.
Most of my complaints have been mentioned already, so here's a semi-minor one: How awful the game is at communicating you're getting hit
The sfx is quiet as shit and other than a small-ish arrow, there's no other indication of you taking damage. And players make no noise when they move as well, which is very weird
>>333140290
The anon from the legit leaks says that the sfx are pretty good. I don't know if they fucked them up in the beta or something.
Here's the link
>>333107886
>>333131535
I can't see this becoming a competitive game. Not much skill is involved.
>>333141021
it really is compareable to HALO
you equip the SS, shoot once and whack the shit out of you enemy
it's was ok, has a bunch of problems but feels solid enough better than most modern games for sure.
not gonna replace anything besides halo or some other console trash
won't be competitive unless they have a stripped back (no powerups) CA mode
>>333141429
Halo requires skill in its own way, and 5 was even designed to be entirely competitive. D44M is the complete opposite.
>>333132110
>>333136195
>>333136353
>>333136604
>>333138605
Low quality baits
>>333139625
There were a number of ways to get another beta code. Both Gamestop and Amazon UK were giving them away for free.
>>333131535
no. and neither did any of you. no one did.
>>333131535
I actually liked it a lot, if they can come up with alt fires for some of the weapons that are more creative than just "hurr, it zooms in a bit" I could see myself playing it a lot.
Also, we need to be able to air strafe or direction change with the double jump.
>>333131535
Haven't played yet, did you OP?
>>333136195
use Zandronum ya dink. Me and my buddies play on the weekends often. Look for [DKS].
>Doom 2016 will never have a soundtrack that's basically instrumentals inspired by heavy metal songs
whats the point
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-k_LPEm0gtc
>>333146697
The devs grew up
>>333131535
I really liked it and will most likely get it around release. I'm very optimistic after both the beta and Wolfenstein TNO.
>>333146939
More like the devs don't work at id anymore. id is basically a completely different company now.
It was alright but the lightning gun made the game easy mode, everyone was running around with it.
>>333146869
>I don't give a fuck about Quake singleplayer
>>333147070
Didn't see many LG users. Didn't seem busted either
>>333146869
DELETE THIS PLEASE
>>333147667
>>333147667
It wasn't a ridiculous advantage, the alt fire on it just made getting kills easier.
>>333146869
I don't hate him for his opinion, but he really does sound like a tryhard fake-angry reviewer who's doing the shtick just because it guarantees views.
It was somewhat enjoyable but I don't think I'd buy a final product based off of this beta alone.
There was this weird feeling of Halo 1 mixed with Quake I couldn't get out of my head.
I kept wanting to wall jump like in UT, dunno why but this should have been a feature as well.
High mobility of the jetpack and parkour is fun, but sometimes I felt that ledges I clearly was above wouldn't register a grab or a vaulting and I'd fall to the level below.
>>333131535
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVFS3QP5u5c
I'm loving it.Rendering another right now, using the Plasma Rifle and going 22-0.
I really dislike the announcer, sounds too Halo.
>>333131860
>gauss cannon
why even, the gun is literally aim in someone's general direction for instant kill, it couldn't be any less impressive
the gun should be nerfed to at least require aiming
>>333148602
TNO is the best shooter since FEAR.
>>333149543
nah it could have been instead it's infested with cancerous modern shootan tropes
>>333149543
People like you are the reason why lukewarm shit like D44M will be a GOTY these days
>>333131535
It's alright but I wish it were simpler. The hack modules feel unnecessary and just further prevent the announcer from shutting up. I didn't see any of my (reasonable) feedback during the alpha get taken seriously.
I remember that the developer of the multiplayer is different from the campaign, so it's still probably decent at the very least. But there's no reason not to wait till the game is half-price if I just want to enjoy the single-player.
>>333131535
I enjoyed it a great deal
>>333149543
No, TNO wasn't good at all.
looks very similar to halo 5
I played 4 matches and I had a good time.
ITT FAGGOTS
The game is far from perfect but 99% of the players need to GIT GUD.
>Playing this on a console
KILL YOURSELF
All I see for Doom 4 is multiplayer this and open beta that. Where the fuck are the singleplayer showcases done by players that aren't being "intentionally slow" to show off environments?
>>333150108
Let me guess, you didn't like it because you were expecting giant mazelike levels and sprinting everywhere
>It's slooow
I wish this meme would die. This game has a lot of significant issues, but being slow is not one of them. The speed is decent, you do have flexible movement, but that doesn't fucking matter when you have Call of Duty loadouts.
>>333152131
The loadouts are objectively one of the least of its issues though. There's literally nothing wrong with loadouts - they let you play with the guns you actually enjoy using.
On another note, the map editor will let you make and play on maps with disabled loadouts and weapon pickups only.
>>333152371
Being able to choose the weapons of your liking to start with is a shitty feature. In normal arena, you acquire the weapons through effort. In clan arena, you have everything to use, so you don't rely on allies to bring the right weapons.
>>333152131
b-but DooM is really slow anon, i swear!
>>333131860
>melee but don't get cinematic kill because that shit is broken

>>333153953
>that hud
jesus christ of cancers
>>333154512
it has been that way for a long time...
I found the Beta to be really shallow and just lacking all the tricks that made Quake and Unreal such captivating time wasters. But at the same time I'm actually looking very forward to Single Player.
Doom was never a hardcore game, hell if 4chan had been around in 1993 I bet there would have been a bunch of bitter /v/irgins complaining that Doom was for casuals while obsessing over System Shock and Ultima.
If the MP is any indication all the weapons have ridiculously large spreads and that is how Doom should play. Doom isn't about headshots it's about killing 5 Demons with one Shotgun Shell. I also don't mind the movement being taken down to the most basic level, Bunnyhops and Rocketjumps are what should be in Quake V.
All I can really say is that it's a real disappointment that ID has seemingly no intention of giving mod tools. The Snap Map looks cool but it can't replace WADs that gave users the ability to change everything.
>>333131535
I can't handle this, at least you can rocket jump like in Quake right?
>>333155127
no momentum or air control

>Fixed FOV

>Positional sound is terrible

>Fixed max movement speed
>No rocket jumping / plasma climbing
I don't even mind the concept of loadouts or power weapons, I think those aspects can work.
I highly doubt they've spent any time putting analysis into what makes an arena FPS great. I doubt they've even spent time with the competitive scene of their previous games to get their input. I mean shit, it would be interested in knowing if sponge/sync ever had any input.
I get that lot of these issues can be fixed, but right now there's no way in hell I'm putting my money down on a game with a skill ceiling / mechanics this basic and with all these fundamental issues that make for a shit FPS. It really looks like id have no idea what they're doing any more despite being the grandfathers of the scene.
>>333155270
That's a good way to neglect vertical gameplay, it's like these devs hate fun.

Glad you concede
>>333156232
Why should I post any argument since you're getting them each time you post that shit pasta? :^)
You could update it at least, but noooo, you must show how much of a smegma taster your are
I deleted it after an hour, aside from stupid .wads like Batman, Doom has never been about the multiplayer for me. Still a little conflicted about buying the actual full game seeing as the movement speed and traversal shit is going to be the same in single player.
In addition the weapons have so little impact and the fucking game is so slow, single player might be shit anyway. Seriously considering if I want to get it or not now.
Why would they do this when Wolfenstein was an amazing success with updating the game?
>>333156354
>Still no counter-argument to valid points
Again, glad you concede. Doom is trash right now.
>>333156354
>Why should I post any argument since you're getting them each time you post that shit pasta?
Translation:
>I have no counterpoints
Enjoyed it.
Playing Doom 2 for the first time now wat Tha fuck this game is intense. I'm sure I've played the first level before in another game that's recreated it or something.
>>333155478
>Fixed FOV
It'll without a doubt be in the full game, it was in the Alpha and Wolfenstein TNO had it, worst case scenario you'll just have to find the .ini
>No demo's / replays
Don't care

True
>Visual clutter
It was clean to me
>Positional sound is terrible
True
>No movement mechanics whatsoever
This isn't Quake V
>Over the top recoil
What?
>Terrible mouse input

>Footsteps next to impossible to hear
Yeah they need to fix the sound
>No forceskins
This is a casual shooter who cares?
>Fixed max movement speed
Once again it's a casual shooter

We're not Quake.
I fully agree Multiplayer is casual crap, Single Player will be where it's at.

But almost no games come out with SDKs these days, so why would anyone be surprised?
>visual clutter
Such as?
>positional sound
Works flawlessly, had no issues tracking players so far. Git gud.
>no movement mechanics
Climbing, double jumping, teleporting, Haste buff... and these only in the beta with plenty of content locked out, not to mention the map editor which lets you change the game's rules entirely.
>over the top recoil
The fuck? There's literally 0 recoil in any gun.
>mouse input
No issues whatsoever. Get a better mouse.
>get better headphones/ears
>forceskins
Blue (your team) vs Red (their team) is objectively all that you need.
>fixed movespeed
In beta, and again can be rulechanged in the map editor.
>rocket jumping/plasma climbing
This wasn't in the original DOOM games.
>>333131535
Fuck no.
It's just another dumbed down console shooter.
I'm not touching it again unless there's mod tools.
>>333131535
I forgot to play it
>>333156989
It's an upgraded Halo 3 without regen health and added gore and better graphics/sound effects/etc.
If you didn't like Halo 3, you don't like shooters. Being mustard or consolitan doesn't change that fact.
>>333156567
make sure you play on ultra violence
I only got to play for the last 5 or so hours, but honestly I had a ton of fun. It doesn't seem like it'll be a very hardcore arena shooter by any means, but it was refreshing as hell.
The fuck is with that announcer though? He sounds retarded and out of place.
I have no idea why /v/ is interested in this game. Is it because it has Doom in the title and it's made by id Software?
Because modern id doesn't even remotely resemble old id. All of the original Doom team has left.
It's just a poor copy of Halo and that's saying something because Halo 5 was fucking shit (partly due to a similar reason, made by a different team)
>>333156921
>agree with all my points
Look how right I am? You sure told me
I liked it.
Some anon was digging through the sound files and found reference to a "Classic" mode so I imagine there will be a mode without loadouts, similar to Quake Live.He also found the single player story.

>This thread
Basically, if you don't like what's going on in
>>333148802
>>333156003
Then you would never have liked anything that DOOM would have been released as in this day and age either way. D44M is pretty much a spot-on modern translation of the first two games, and it couldn't really have been made better without playing like Quake or UT instead of DOOM.
The game is fucking brilliant and /v/ needs to be contrarian (millennial) as usual.
>>333157093
GTFO underage.
This is meant to be Doom, not fucking Halo.
I can't think of a single way to call this Doom besides from the setting.
It's a slow shooter with perks and loadouts, giving players different starting points and completely fucking the balance of the game.
It is not an arena shooter, it is not a Doom multiplayer experience and there is no way in hell that I will consider buying this generic consolised garbage in my life.
>>333157324
Interdasting. Please elaborate.
As for the beta, it felt lacklustre and shallow. Play ZDaemon for a decent Doom multiplayer experience instead.

Wow you sure told me famalam, +1 reddit points to you kid.
Maybe once you grow up you'll actually come to realize how fucking dumb you sound right now.
I give the multiplayer at least a 7/10.
Pretty okay. Not bad but not excellent, either.
I wish they would change the SFX of the Plasma Rifle. It sounds like weaksauce ass. It doesn't sound like it has power. Sounds similar to the shitty DOOM 3 version. I want something that sounds like it has balls when it shoots. Like the original DOOM.
I hope the story is good at least and has online co-op. I would love playing that with my bros.

>>My brain can't assimilate that health/ammo is ultra glowing and unmissable, and can''t recognize the enemies that are clearly white while the background is orange/brown
It's the size of explosions, low fox, shader effects and post processing up the arse etc
>>Apparently the sound design is terrible, doesn't explain why and simply spout it. Call it an argument
Positional audio is terrible, allied and friendly footsteps are the same, footsteps aren't even audible
>>what is double jump? What is bunny hopping?
You think bunny hopping and double jumping are deep movement mechanics? Hahahahahaha, casual shitter confirmed
>>not hearing footsteps is bad, while the only games from id that does it are D33M and Rage, which where horrendous garbage
Literally not true. Quake 3 did footsteps perfect
>>why isn't D44M quake?
Being this unable the read. I'm not saying it has to be a copy of quake, I'm saying they should at least learn what made quake good and how much fundamental FPS shit is missing for dokm for it to be considered higher than 4/10 game.
>>333157423
>What is bunny hopping?
Oh yeah, I didn't even bring this up in my own argument above.
Bunny hopping is confirmed for release through server commands, so it'll be a server wide setting that anyone can use if they WANT to. There's your Quake gameplay for you crybabies.
>>333153953
>Damage numbers
For what purpose?
Call of Duty with no sprint button
I loved it.
I thought it would be one of those retarded games with proper double jumping and you could exert proper air control. I thought it would be really fast paced, and would need map control to get weapons.
Thankfully, I'm a dyslexic retard with one hand and id made the perfect game for me. I can play it with one hand and my penis using a controller. I love the fact that this new IP draws heavily from Halo, one of the best and most iconic shooters of all time with its character models - its great when a new developer draws ideas from others!
I love that I can spawn with weapons, so that the devs don't really have to think about placing weapons in the map (which gives them more time to make the game more like Halo).
And I love the addition of damage numbers! I feel they fit in perfectly for an esport to see exactly the amount of damage you have done to the enemy. As I said, I'm a bit mentally challenged so rather than relying on a more subtle way of conveying damage, I need the number to pop up to confirm I hit something with my aim.
I love the calm, and quiet commentator, because loud noises make me shake but this commentator helps me stay cool and collected.
All in all, a great game from a new franchise we expected nothing from.
>>333157643
On the story? I wish I saved the link but it's a huge dump of voiceover from the game. I don't want to spoil it for you because it's hilarious and makes every wad ever made canon.
It might take place after Doom 64. Jury's still out on whether or not we're dealing with multidimensional bullshit or not.
>>333157908
>the tool they're giving is limited
It literally lets you change most of the rules and variables in the entire game to suit whatever the fuck you want. It's about as good as the Warcraft 3 map editor.
>>333153953
>Damage Numbers
But... but why?
>>333158115
>>333157982
How else would you know how much damage you deal? Like seriously.
>>333157790
>it plays as you would expect of doom
Do you honestly expect a Doom game to feature loadouts and perks that are unlocked based upon play time?
Have you never played an arena shooter in your life?
>>333158115
Because everyone has 100 health (unless they have armor) and it helps to have some indication of whether or not someone is about to die.Like shields popping in Halo.
>>333157607
>muh /v/ hivemind
That's not really how it works. Most of the idiots who shit on the game didn't play it, are vocal and tries to be so, just like that retard here >>333155478 .
It's those same vocal shitposters who will claim that the last Wolfenstein game isn't utter garbage in every aspect that doesn't require you to shoot nazis (understand here around 75% of the game), while it clearly is.

They are very clearly audible, but your hearing is shit. I for one can easily tell where enemies are through
>which side of a wall they're on
>which vertical space they're positioned in
>how close/far away from my own position they are
quite fine even during a firefight.
>You think bunny hopping and double jumping are deep movement mechanics? Hahahahahaha, casual shitter confirmed
Then what is "deep" movement mechanics? Because those and using a handheld teleporter (which this game frankly copies from Unreal Tournament, but it's a good feature) are about as deep as you can get.
>muh rocket jumping
It literally takes no effort to jump and shoot below you to fly upwards at the cost of health. Noone in their right mind can think that this is "deep movement mechanics".
>>333131535
Not really. I felt like I was playing reskinned Halo. Everything is so slow, fov sucsk, permanent mouse accel and permanent motion blur. Also, the only fun weapon is the lightning gun.
>>333158007
kek, 10/10
>>333158250
is that webm actually Doom? I honestly can't tell, it honestly looks like it reuses animation from Halo 4, holy fucking shit.
>>333158226
>Have you never played an arena shooter in your life?
"arena shooter" is a retroactively applied label. No "arena shooter" was called an "arena" shooter when it was out.
There are no more arena shooters and there cannot be because the label refers to the mid-late 90s and very early 2000s only.
so, did I really expect 2016 AAA doom to be like a 2016 AAA game? yes.
Why do people keep focusing on the multiplayer, I really wonder. The game clearly just isn't about it and it's slapped together, looks awful
>>333158404

It's clearly ripped from Resistance 1 you fucktard.
>>333158226
It's a 2016 game, basically what>>333158420 said is spot-on. What the fuck else would you expect?
You've got to be out of your fucking mind to expect a modern game to play anything like pre-2000 games, and it isn't even a bad thing. Games have evolved for the better.
DOOM is still a classic, but DOOM 4 is a top tier game for its time. If you had actually played the beta you would have at least been able to form your own opinion though.
>>333153953
this is hillariously slow actually. Is this what halo babies think is fast?
>>333158404
Didn't they find Halo source codes in the Alpha or Beta? I recall seeing an image.
>>333158640
Not sure if bait...
I liked everything it had to offer except for the announcer and those fucking hack modules, honestly what's the point of them?
Also, is there any word on whether or not they'll have competitive modes with certain things disabled? I can see myself getting into the multiplayer with friends, but I think the demon runes and shit like that would really hurt it in that regard.

Yeah. This is actually his most coherent video because as he says he used to play arena shooters usually he doesn't seem to even know much about the genre. I think this vid makes decent points because Doom 4 is such a blatant show of what's wrong with modern fps games but usually I think he's trite.
Will doom 4 have map editing features? Could someone remake E1M1 for example?
>>333158942
Your webm? It sure is. Give it D44M's current FoV and less nauseous camera shaking, and you'll get something even slower than what the others ITT call "slow"

Bullshit, it's a known issue that the mixing in Doom is fucking broken. Show me a video of footsteps being audible during a firefight.
Players don't even make a sound when they jump.
>Then what is "deep" movement mechanics? Because those and using a handheld teleporter (which this game frankly copies from Unreal Tournament, but it's a good feature) are about as deep as you can get.
You truely are a neoFPS shitter. I bet you think CoD4 was good as well.

>>333159174

>>333159007
I liked it and I see areas that could be improved. Speed could be cranked up a little and a little air mobility could go a long way.
I don't want Doom 4 to be Quake 3 but some of these criticisms are valid.
The confirmation of a loadout-free classic mode would clinch it for me.
>>333158942
That right there is probably the dumbest example so far. And whoever is playing is having some serious spasms.
Spasms and high FOV don't make you move faster, by the way.
>>333159258
Well from one of the youtube "what we know so far" vids I saw, it definitely sounded like anyone could turn off loadouts and place weapon drops as they please in the map editor.

>>333159258
Nobody is saying Doom should be Quake. But you can't ignore fundamental FPS design when you literally made the best arena FPS in the past.
>>333146697
But it does, anon
Was Doom multiplayer ever an advertising point back in the 90s? I guess it must've been neat when you were rich enough to buy 2 computers back then.
>>333159393
It was though. Avoiding projectiles and strafe into cover during hitscan startup frames was important.
>>333158640
>Games have evolved for the better.
That's no excuse for them to completely neglect the original games identity and gameplay.
I played the alpha, and the beta. There was little to no difference aside from the added unlock bollocks.
They did not increase the movement speed, add traditional gametypes or gameplay.
The new stuff is interesting, but the amount of generic modern additions is just silly. Why would they want to make a game that's just like the rest of what's coming out these days?
>>333159365
I believe I've heard that map editor maps are limited to 4 players or maybe 6? A small number.
But everything I've seen so far leads me to believe that a classic mode will be around in some form. There's announcer voiceover for it.Preparing for disappointment.

And you think those are unique credentials among the people wanting to play this game? I'd like to assume most of us here are fans of DOOM, man. Aside from the blatant plebbit kiddies ITT I like to think that most of us got our start from this series.
>>333159258
Agreed, there is indeed a ton of room for improvement, but from what I've played so far it shows enough promise. It's really only up to the question of whether or not they'll handle it properly.

>>333159402

Very few of you here understand FPS level design in games like Quake, and how difficult it is to put together playable levels. Without experienced Quake-era mappers, there will never be good MP levels, they simply don't understand how to make them.
think about the number of maps in Quake, Q2, Q3, UT, UT2004 combined, then think of how many of those maps were generally played on servers. About 20% max.
>>333158942
Show gameplay of a marine, that's probably actually slower than Doom 4.
Not that Doom 4 looks all that interesting, it looks like a generic mashing of CoD and Halo, but the movement speed really isn't that awful. Does anyone have any gameplay from Doom 1 or 2 that's super fast? The main complaints seem to be about it being slower than Quake 3.
I am bummed about their not being any sort of movement tech in game, but is anyone shocked by this? Bunny hopping started as a glitch and then fell by the way side as shooters moved on and onto consoles.Tribes Ascend had the best mix of "easy to learn, hard to master" movement systems available in an FPS game. Skiing in that game was a near perfect mechanic.
>>333158625
Does any version of Doom have advanced movement techniques? I honestly want to know.
>>333159529
>Avoiding projectiles and strafe into cover during hitscan startup frames was important.
This is in D44M as well. And why? Because it's literally a modernization of the classics, that's its purpose unlike DOOM 3.
>>333159586
>sprint
>doom
can't even tell if troll or not.
>>333159402
A lot of people are saying shit about rocket jumping which I don't think we need in this game. Speed? Sure. I'd bump movement speed by about 30% from what it currently is.
>>333159529
But this webm is some heavily modded DOOM II.
>>333159619
>Does any version of Doom have advanced movement techniques?
Yes, there are multiple advanced movement and weapon use techniques in Doom. But that has nothing to do with it..Quake games had it, so doom should have it. It's either a conscious decision not to make something good, or a conscious decision to make it good using what you know. It doesn't matter what series it is whatsoever

>>333159650
Did you ever try pressing shift?
>>333159592
Where did I imply they aren't the same designers? I'm saying they have the resources to go back and see what made the originals so good.
They could ask competitive players for their input on what could be improved without straying too far away from their vision.
sponge/syncerror still work for id right? I've spoken to those guys loads of times they aren't retarded. I highly doubt they've been involved with doom at all.

To those of us who grew up with it, Quake is a continuation of Doom, they are not really different series. It is a continuation of the same ideas, the same high-tech focus, the same community and modding focus.
And it will never be anything but that. You don't have any explanation for why it shouldn't be in the game, so, greentext and maymays.
Rocket jumping isn't in the game because half the intended market is consoles. Same reason Portal 2 didn't have any difficult puzzles. Games getting objectively worse and less complex because controllers.

>>333159720
So Doom should mimic Quake completely? Does Doom even really have an identity mechanically as a shooter then? Like I get it, bunny hopping always adds depth to an FPS, but to put it in Doom now seems kinda odd. The multiplayer does seem generic but I don't really see how they're butchering Doom when people want them to add mechanics that have never been in Doom to begin with.
Aren't they making a new Quake anyways?
>>333160260

>>333160260
>Games getting objectively worse and less complex because controllers.
So then can you really blame developers for going this way? Because that is an objective fact, but if a developer does not cater to those markets nowadays by things easier they're more likely than not going to be ruined in the market, especially for a game like DOOM which has been dormant for some time.
>>333160363
No it wasn't. That shit is the focus of ideas bandied about by romero that were unattainable and were never the design focus past ultra early alpha.
Once you get out in the real world little anon, you'll find that it doesn't matter what something was "meant to be", it matters what it is.
>>333160384

Right, remember how bad the Souls series failed by trying to reintroduce challenge to games?
It's an "objective fact" despite there not being any evidence to the contrary because no AAAs are making games that aren't watered down. Great logic there kiddo.
>>333160492
And Quake is still not Doom.
>>333131535
Not really. Loadouts and all that frilly shit turned me off immediately. Rockets are completely useless and the other guns were meh.
But that's ok because I'll be buying doom for the single player
>>333160518

People are comparing the source port to doom 4 instead of the original release. All this "muh fast" crap wasn't originally part of what ID software made, it's all community driven after the source code was released. 95% of people who "remember da good old days of Doom" never actually played the MS-DOS version and probably think sprinting and jumping was an original mechanic.
>>333159402
Arena FPS is really dead man. They tried to bring it back with Tribes Ascend and Quake Live, but both of those games are dead as shit now.
I'd love to see really complex movement systems make their way back into FPS games, but the majority of people playing games don't seem to care for them much. Hell, the majority of gamers aren't familiar with using complex movement systems in games.
No one should be remotley shocked that this game doesn't play like Quake or an arena shooter. Doom really never was an atypical arena shooter.
>>333160573
Controllers just cannot support complex shooters man. Halo and CoD are popular because they were slowed down and dumbed down to work well on consoles. Halo had some minor depth because of this but even then it's a fraction of what quake had.
>>333160518
Halo 3.
>>333161187
This is trying to be Quake, not DOOM.
>>333161229
>doom didn't have wallrunning
I love how the people who never actually experienced anything about Doom are the ones who talk and "drop knowledge" on people like this.
You can wallrun to the point of going fucking like 300 meters per second in doom
Since you don't even know what a "wallrun" is, fuck off and stop positing that you understood the doom era.
>>333161274
That's even faster than quake.
>>333161256
If they want to bring back arena shooters then they need one with an xp system. Purely for cosmetic purposes. And it has to be a classic series like Quake.
Quake Live was low-key.
>>333161357
You know exactly what I meant you autist. Stop pretending like original doom was sonic the hedgehog with guns. Seriously, go play the game now in DosBox and record yourself going super sanic speeds and show me how fast you are - and no, that doesn't mean skip every enemy either.
>>333161383
And it isn't DOOM.
>>333161519
doom isnt fast and i never said it was
but doom 4 multiplayer has nothing to do, whatsoever, with doom multiplayer. there's no point in comparing anything to the original doom, it was 23 fucking years ago. most people in this thread aren't 23 years old!!!

Because "not slow" is "fast". It sure is.
>>333161452
Do it the Valve way and add skins and go support the comp scene. Fucking CS:GO might as well be PC only and it's still a solid money maker for Valve thanks to the addition of a handful of things that don't really cramp the core gameplay at all.
If Quake were to go that route it could be dooable, but it'd be really hard. The vast majority of FPS players don't understand bunnyhopping and movement mechanics like that.I never figured out how to do it myself
It's ogre?
>>333161949

>>333161949
>I never figured out how to do it myself
Basically, move mouse left while pressing left, move mouse right while pressing right.
Whether you ever press the forward key or not depends on if you're talking about Quake or Source engine bhop.
>>333162293
you dont strafe in quake primarily with mouse movement, it is based on strafe keys, and you have to hold forward
strafejumping is not "bunnyhopping" in source engine, that is entirely different. you don't bunnyhop in quake games you strafe.

I can show you awesome, fast, strafe-running game play from the MS-DOS version as well, doesn't mean every autist in this thread claiming "muh fast" played like that.
>>333164547
It's significantly faster horizontally but that's fixable. A mode with no loadouts and static gun pickups would also be easy enough to do (assuming they don't already have plans).
I think they have a solid foundation to build on here. As others have said already, some minor changes would be excellent.

This is so laughably stupid, please just kill yourself. What does it matter how the average person played? All that matters is the game mechanics.
Doom I and II allowed you to play at super sonic speeds and if you ever played Deathmatch back then it was just like that video. Cherrry picking some idiot playing the first level doesn't prove anything. Even in singleplayer, I remember watching my dad play MAP18 over and over running all around like a mad man riling up all the goons and running criss-cross between all the projectiles while all the enemies ended up killing each other.
The playstyle isn't something new, it's always been there. Just because you decided to start playing in 2010 when it showed up on Steam or watched a random Youtube video doesn't mean you know anything about how it was actually played.

Nice nostalgia goggles and anecdotal evidence, fuck wit. Pity it never happened.
Again, like I've asked 2 others in this thread - record yourself playing the game on DosBox and show me how fast you are. Don't link me to a video of a particularly skilled player to show me "HOW FAST THE GAME IS" because I can link you a good, fast player for literally any fucking game. Show me evidence of how fast YOU are. Though I'm probably asking too much since you probably fucking jump in source ports to get unreachable keys.

That's why it was so much damn fun, when you were 1v1 someone and you both had a Double Shotgun which is an instakill at close range and you're both strafing dancing around each other like a bunch of nuts and you both keep missing over and over until someone finally lines up the shot just right.

I just wish the running speed was a bit faster. Also, make the Plasma Gun worth using. Literally anything else is better than it.
>>333166995
I thought the plasma was kinda OP. Did you use the alt fire?
The only gun I couldn't see ever using was the regular rifle.
>>333154216
It will only be a glorious kill if their health is low enough. The player glows gold when you are close to tell you melee is a glorious kill. Since there are health and armor pickups, it's be silly for melee to instakill a guy with 100 health and like 40 armor
>getting the final kill with a glorious kill

It's fun. It's not the Doom 1 remake with better graphics and quake features that seems to be the only way to make people here happy, and even then most people would bitch it's just a remake/trash

souls are low budget compared to most aaa. Bloodborn for example, need only 2 millions to be declared a success and get an expansion.
And the challenge of souls arent all that hot shit. The slow pace is weird at the beginning but once you get accustomed to it, later levels and the sequels turn ez. The game is punishing, not hard.
Transcript of the Satan audio leaks:
In the first age, in the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened, one stood, burned by the embers of Armageddon. His soul, blistered by the fires of Hell, and tainted beyond ascension. He chose the path of perpetual torment. In his ravenous hatred, he found no peace, and with boiling blood he scoured the umbral planes, seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him. He wore the crown of the Knight Sentinels, and those that tasted the bite of his sword named him...The Doomslayer.
Tempered by the fires of Hell, his iron will remains steadfast through the passage that preys upon the weak, for he alone was the Hellwalker, the unchained predator who sought retribution in all quarters. Dark, and light. Fire, and ice. In the beginning, and the end. And he hunted the slaves of Doom with barbarous cruelty, for he passed through the divide as none but demon had before.
And in his terrible rancor between worlds, and through Time, the Hellwalker found the Wretch Who Shall Not Be Named, but in his heresy was loyal to his evil cause. The Wretch atoned(?) to the Doomslayer in a mighty armor, wrought from the forges of hell. Impenetrable, and unyielding. With sword and shield of adamantine strength, the Doomslayer set to banishing all that were left unbroken by his savagery to the void.
And in his conquest against the blackened souls of the Doomed, his prowess was shown. In his crusade, the Seraphin(?) bestowed upon him terrible power and speed, and with his might he crushed the obsidian pillars of the Blood Temples. He set forth without pity upon the beasts of the Nine Circles. Unbreakable. Incorruptible. Unyielding. The Doomslayer sought to end the dominion of the Dark Realm.
>>333168568
The age of his reckoning was uncounted. The scribes carved his name deep in the tablets of Hell across eons, and each battle etched terror in the hearts of the demons. They knew he would come, as he always had, as he always will, to feast upon the blood of the wicked, for he alone could draw strength from his fallen foes and ever his power grew, swift and unrelenting.
None could stand before the Lord, but the Doomslayer. Despair spread before him like a plague, striking fear to the shadow-dwellers, driving them to deeper and darker pits. But from the depths of the abyss rose the Great One - a champion, mightier who had all who had come before. The Titan of immeasurable power and ferocity. He strode upon the plain, and faced the Doomslayer. And a mighty battle was fought on the desolate plains. The Titan fought with the fury of the countless that had fallen at the Doomslayers hand...but there fell the Titan, and in his defeat, the shadow horde were routed.
Yet as the mighty Titan fell, and dread engulfed the armies of Doom, the Demon Priests of the Blood Temples laid a trap to capture the scourge of Hell. Insatiable, even by the vanquishing of the Great One, the Hellwalker sought prey in the tombs of the Blood Keep, and blinded by his fervor the lure drew him in. The Priests brought down the temple upon the Doomslayer, and in his defeat entombed him in the Cursed Sarcophagus. The Mark of the Doomslayer was burned upon his crypt, a warning to all of Hell that the terror within must never be freed. There, he lies still, and evermore in silent suffering.

Gameplay wise it's no different than GZDoom, if I was to play it on Dosbox for another couple of hours and play full screen I would be fine. But keep pretending that your new D44M is fast.
>>333168651
THE DOOOOOMSLAYER
The only part that I want to know is who the Titan is supposed to be. Hopefully not the Icon. That'd be silly.
>>333170386
Either the Icon, the Cyberdemon or something new that's most likely unimportant because it had its entrails ripped out by Doomguy several years ago.
>>333170516
The audio files already mention ripping up a Cyberdemon for some parts or something. I imagine he's been demoted to mid boss.
Check out my incredibly lame mini montage
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6_WZG3u7eA
I did this in 2 games before the BETA ended because I wanted some footage saved.
>>333170386
What I want to know is what the hell is this bit talking about
>And in his terrible rancor between worlds, and through Time, the Hellwalker found the Wretch Who Shall Not Be Named, but in his heresy was loyal to his evil cause. The Wretch atoned(?) to the Doomslayer in a mighty armor, wrought from the forges of hell. Impenetrable, and unyielding. With sword and shield of adamantine strength, the Doomslayer set to banishing all that were left unbroken by his savagery to the void.
There was a traitor demon who gave Doomguy a suit of power armor or something?
>>333170886
A UAC guy I assume.
Or a demon.
Or both.
>>333170762
>half of the kills are done with the Gauss Canon
Wooooow
Overwhelming skills m8
probably some new character. Would be funny if it was an existing character from the 'id-verse' like Betruger or BJ.
>>333171250
Man, the Gauss canon was the only gun I truly had fun with and not because the one hit kill but because the noise it made.
>>333170886
Well the UAC CEO mentions that they found something else that was marked with the Doomslayer's symbol, so it might be that we get a power armor upgrade halfway through the game?
>>333171316
I would be mildly irritated if it ended up being Betruger.
Although the conversations in the audio files do sound very similar to Doom 3.
>All these people thinking that Doomguy is some sort of extra dimensional being with demon powers
Guys, what's happening is that after DOOM 64, when Doomguy had kicked Hell's ass at least three times in a row, and he stayed in hell to keep them in there, some sort of incredible demon power sealed him away in a tomb, for fear of him destroying Hell itself.
He gained a reputation among the demons as being a god, simply for how well he kicked their asses, and how consistently. He's not literally a god. He's still the same average Joe Marine from 1, 2 and 64.
Now here's the real kicker, Hell is multi-dimensional, meaning there's one Hell, but all dimensions connect to the same Hell.
So when a UAC from a totally different dimension finally opens a portal to hell, they find Doomguy locked up in his tomb, and they bring him back to their UAC facility on Mars.
They read up on him from scribes in Hell, and once shit goes down and Hell gets unleashed in their facility, the pop open the lid on the tomb, and essentially bring Doomguy out of stasis to have him fight the demons again.
So, to recap, Doomguy has no mystical powers.
He's the same normal dude in a shit situation from the originals.
>>333171789
That all follows and makes sense. But I thought 64 takes place after Doom 1 as a sort of what-if scenario?
Or did Doom 1 happen, then the Earth invasion, THEN they flood the Mars moon bases with radiation and send Doomguy in?
This lore is too deep.
>>333153953
Doom is very slow compared to the older arena shooters, they just copied halo
>>333171789
>So, to recap, Doomguy has no mystical powers.
That doesn't stop me from finding it fucking hilarious that the demons insist that he does.
>>333172035
>Or did Doom 1 happen, then the Earth invasion, THEN they flood the Mars moon bases with radiation and send Doomguy in?
There were a bunch of invasions.
http://www.classicdoom.com/doomtext.htm
We can probably assume all this to be canon.
So like the final game is going to have more weapons and shit right? the selection now is pretty limited
>>333172405
A lot more if the datamined materials are to be believed. Of course those could just be leftovers of things that were scrapped.
Its entirely safe to assume that everything from Doom 2 is in. Plus a few more.
>>333158632
What game is that?
>>333150051
I always thought he was wearing red shorts.
THIS IS AN ACTUAL SCREENSHOT FROM THE SINGLE PLAYER CAMPAIGN
BETHESDA IS ACTIVELY HIDING HOW CASUAL THIS GAME IS FROM /V/
>>333175417
If you listened to some of the leaked Audio files, the suit's AI asks you if you want to turn these on.
All this stuff is totally optional.
>>333156003
Decided to re-render and re-upload this, because of faulty rendering settings. It should be fixed now:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCCvO3BI6Fc
>>333175417
>>333175556
Even if it's entirely optional, I don't see why you wouldn't want to have this stuff. It's barebones information that you'd expect from any modern game. Old games lacking such was a design flaw.
>>333175820
Because its casual fuck and borderline cringey to see it in Doom
>>333175956
options are always welcome.
>>333176459
Everything is OK except for that waypoint looking thing.
If that really is a waypoint then we're in for some shit.
I enjoyed it but people need to realise that arena shooters are fucking dead. Seriously, look at player count on arena games on Steam, it's literally less than a hundred for some of them. They are a relic of the past and will always remain small.
Secondly, really fast movement speed, bunny hopping and rocket jumping is Quake, not Doom. Doom is only somewhat fast and had a horizontal rocket jump which is not really rocket jumping.
>>333160359
god that game is ugly
>>333176860
Children, gather round. Let me tell you a story of classic Doom and it's main features:
>monster closets
>searching 45 minutes for a switch you missed
>unf unf unf unf unf on every wall
>butt-clenching trips over nukage
>guy with a nosebleed in the statusbar
>exploding barrel chains
>custom midis of 90s tunes and stupid shit like Beverly Hills Cop
>900 newbie maps covered in Startan texture and filled with SS Nazis
>crushing ceilings out the wazoo
>cheesy satanic imagery
>Dwango5, all day err' day
>>333177903
The only unf unf unf moment I ever had with Doom was E3M6.
Fuck that map. Fuck whoever made it.
>>333175556
Where can we find said audio?
>>333177903
Wolfenstein 3D is UNF UNF UNF, you underage fuck
>>333171789
i'm so hard right now
>>333175956
There's nothing casual about giving you the information you need.
It's poor design to have players guess what to do next.
>>333175417
Can't believe I used to talk about video games here
>>333176646
It is a waypoint, but it only shows on the compass.
Levels are supposed to be really nonlinear, and multi-tiered, so it really might be necessary.
And it never tells you exactly where anything is, it just shows you the general direction.
Lots of articles from people who have playtested have said that even with the compass, and the 2D and 3D automaps, it's really easy to get lost.
>>333171789
So it goes Doom>Doom 2>Final Doom>Doom 64.
Doomguy gets stuck in Doom 64 as he stays in Hell to fight demons and travels through all parts of it and then gets trapped by demon priests until awakened in this reboot.
Sounds awesome. Every WAD can now be argued to be canon, even /pol/ wad.
Buying it purely for campaign. Looks just like the DOOM of old with alot of added gameplay elements. Gonna feel good mowing through the hordes of hell again.
>>333131535
Yeah I liked it.
>>333149017
Yeah it needs a nerf.
>>333153953
It's faster than any current shooter, and I like the speed. I would say (and you didn't, either) that is super fast or anything though.
>>333165458
>>333161187
Warsow's shit though.
>>333158625
>enhanced movement techniques
You mean glitches.
>>333180196
HDoom?
>>333159965
>>Not pressing capslock to toggle always run
>sourceport kiddie
>>333164462
Honestly the original MP is shit.
>>333180196
As far as I know Final Doom has never really been canon.
It's more like DOOM>DOOM 2>DOOM 64>DOOM 4.
Jesus. Will Doomguy ever get a break? This is gonna be his fourth time beating the shit out of Hell itself.
>he never got to go home, live a life of luxury, and crack open that cold one
>>333171789
In the new game, it seems to be that he gets infused with hell energy, given one of the upgrade paths.
>>333182413
>strafe jumping is a glitch
>side dodging is a glitch
>wall jumping is a glitch better have a double jump lol
>rocket jumping is a glitch
>>333175417
I don't love the achievement unlocks thing being on-screen, but whatever.
Also that pic was probably deleted when threads were deleted in masse because of the alpha leak, not the pic itself.
>>333148802
>>333175592
I enjoyed these.
>>333183136
Holy shit. I just thought of something.
Doomguy is doomed to do this forever. This is why this new game is just called DOOM instead of DOOM 4.
History is going to keep repeating itself.
He went through DOOM, DOOM 2, and DOOM 64, and now he's pretty much waking up in a new dimension where the demon invasion is just starting up again.
He's right back at the beginning.
And he's going to have to stop the demons in this dimension, then save this dimension's Earth, and just wash rinse and repeat.
>>333183434
>>strafe jumping is a glitch
Yes it is
>>333156829
>I-it's just a beta etc
/v/ retards confirmed for literally being too retarded to understand what a beta is and sucking EA's cock for the definition
>>333183458
>I enjoyed these.
Well thanks!
http://www.certainaffinity.com/news/id-software-has-teamed-up-with-certain-affinity-to-develop-the-multiplayer-part-of-doom/
>Developer id Software has teamed up with Certain Affinity to develop the multiplayer part of Doom.
>It is not the first time Certain Affinity has partnered with a well-known studio to work exclusively on the multiplayer segment of a game
>The studio has contributed to the multiplayer development of Halo: The Master Chief Collection, Call of Duty: Ghosts, and Halo 4, amongst others.
Only the multiplayer plays like Halo because it was made by people who worked on Halo.
Id is making the singleplayer by themselves, it's not gonna be the same as the multiplayer.
There's still a chance.

what the fuck are you even talking about
pressing capslock isn't the same as editing a text file
that was the point, not "always run"
literally kill yourself
>>333183915
>there's still a chance
That the singleplayer actually becomes bad, then? Because that just means that the singleplayer is truly a Bethesda game, and Bethesda games are generally bad.
The multiplayer is already confirmed to be the best part of the game, no doubt whatsoever about that.
>>333183136
Well, Final Doom maybe. I would still include it though.
To be honest, I think Doomguy enjoys it to be honest. He's a reflection of YOU, the player. Every kill, every new weapon, every new level as you never know what you'll fight and end up next.
>>333184981
Son, you never go full retard.

not saying that the sp was greateven though I liked it
>>333184920
>elaborate
on what? that you're the fag who insists that the multiplayer being done by neoFPS milennial cuckolds is a much better done job by people who actually are developing the part of the game that actually matters themselves?
or the fact that there are people in the team such as tim willits and kevin cloud who have been around literally since the original Doom was made, and that the single player as a whole looks way more interesting than the multiplayer by a mileage?
>>333185609
You didn't play it and/or you have such shit taste that you wouldn't have liked it no matter what it was.
It's an excellent multiplayer and it'll be the main reason that most people will remember the game. It's at least on par with Halo 3.
>>333185254
why are you so retarded
why do you only speak in memes
why are we even having this idiotic conversation

>>333179670
>>333180108
The orginal doom did it fine. Every game made before way points and objective lists were standard did it fine. Its bad game design to have your levels so unituituve that you need to blatantly tell your player where to go and what to do
>>333185609
Single player was pretty fun.
Hell, I replayed it last month, along with still replaying through Resurrection of Evil xpac here and there, too.
Shame its so linear, though.
>>333187189

Probably has something to do with the clueless retard claiming it's impossible to bind autorun in doom while talking about the method of doing it. That's (You) by the way.
>>333189035
you can't bind autorun in doom you fucking idiot, you can toggle it via config
