>it's another youtube let's player thread
grow up and play the games yourself instead of watching some fag do it, kiddo.
>>335456357
that's some low quality bait
>>335456357
Wut? John Romero is here to MAKE the video games, Anon.
>>335456291
Fucl off with this eceleb garbage no one cares about some cuck streamer
I'll be really surprised if it isn't a crowdfunding campaign
>>335456291
This washed up hack has way too high of an opinion of himself when he has never actually done anything on his own to warrant compliment. He also takes way too much credit for any little thing in Doom he had little to do with.
>>335456291
Monitoring this thread. Not getting my hopes up though.
>>335456435
I don't even want to imagine that possibility. No, in fact I know it won't be that.
John Romero is always talking about how you have to make games with your own free time.
The hobby needs his sort of passion again.
But his ego is what destroyed him last time.
I want to believe, but we all know we can't have nice things.
Is he still working in a gas station?
>>335456421
>being this new
how does it feel to be underage?
>>335456642
Of course. How else would he fund a new video game?
>>335456291
Daikatana 2 confirmed!
>>335456291
>Adrian Carmack
What, they couldn't get John?
>>335456948
John sold out to being Facebooks bitch
>>335456948
Adrian and John arent related by blood though they have the same last name. Adrian actually sued John I believe.
>>335457023
>Adrian actually sued John I believe
wait why?
>>335456948
there were 2 completely unrelated Carmacks at id.
what are the odds.
>>335456435
This.
They will probably ask for 500k, and will want to make SP arena shooter, that feels like old school one. Problem is, we already have few of them, and none of them are doing great.
Interested, but not expecting much.
>>335457062
Something about shares after activision sale.
http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/97616/Id_Software_Loses_Adrian_Carmack_Gets_Legal_Battle.php
>stretch goal is to hire John Carmack
>>335457073
Yeah but none of them have good multiplayer, you could argue the new unreal but its kind of slow and the teleport thing is the only thing speeding it up.
>>335456435
I remember him mentioning somewhere that he doesn't want that.
He is fairly well off.
>>335457073
>former doom creators
>his website has ARG of wanting to make FPS great again and shits on modern fps tropes
This could be big. You telling me you wouldn't fund a Doom/Quake style revival from the actual creators?
This could be the next big thing if they don't fuck it up.who am I kidding they will fuck it up
>>335457005
Carmack just goes wherever his tech autism leads him.
please stop meming this shit
im tired of watching our heroes die in front of our own eyes
kojima, sam lake, and now this
>>335457073
yeah but pretty much all the modern throwbacks are being done by no names just trying to recapture old titles
big names doing something that is at least somewhat fresh will draw more people in
>>335457273
Cheer up, folks need heroes, smile while we got somethin' to smile about
>>335457263
>Doom/Quake style revival
>next big thing
>>335457334
you need to have been born before the 90s to post in this thread
>>335456291
his game is probably going to be shit and you know it
>>335457062
John tried to force Adrian out for a tiny amount of money while other companies were trying to buy id.
>>335457263
all it has to be is a really solid shooter without all the modern bullshit
Romero has always been about solid common sense design
>>335457437
We have Adrian to keep him in check.
Meh we will see in 5 hours anyway. it could all be FUCKING NOTHING.
>>335457437
We already know that it's going to be fast paced with good level design if Romero is on team.
I would buy a new build engine game if it was as good as the Duke 3D, shadow warrior, blood trilogy
Call me when literally any other designer from Doom to Quake era id decides to make something.
>>335457437
Yeah, the one game he made without trainingwheels was *super* solid and commonsense in its design. All those social phone games, too!
>>335456291
Literally who
>yfw it's Daikatana 2
>>335456291
>Romero
I cant name a single good game he made on his own
>>335457547
>implying randy pitchford would allow this
>>335449180
>>335457606
This would be glorious.
Though if it was something based on their original concept for Quake with the interdimensional hypercube companion it could also be fun.
>>335457620
Neither can I name anyone ever.
>>335456291
I'M READY
I CAN SEE THE SECOND COMING OF THE FPS GENRE
GODSPEED YOU GLORIOUS BASTARD
>>335457606
>yfw they don't fuck up the development this time around
>>335456672
>takes the lowest quality bait
>calls orther people new
>>335457793
Because Romero is a great manager yes?
Anyone here played his new DOOM level, tech gone bad? Seems like he has the touch still
>It ends up being a red image that has "JOHN ROMERO'S ABOUT TO MAKE YOU HIS BITCH...AGAIN!"
>>335457620
he made a shitload of games on his own before ID
>>335457814
Some people learn from their mistakes.
Time will tell if he is one of them.
>>335457870
Were they_fun_?
>>335457905
>Time will tell if he is one of them
>Already making dramatic, masturbatory videos about returning to game development even after the whole "suck it down" fiasco
Yeah, not in the slightest.
>>335457961
dangerous dave is ok most are very simple kind of arcade games
>>335456291
i guess he needs new ferrari
>>335456705
There is no more god than Romero hand his hair is our Prophet
>>335457987
Yeah this little video isn't exactly giving me confidence that he has learned anything, but this is one of the few times I genuinely want to be wrong.
>>335456291
>tfw it's Daikatana 2
>>335456291
>suck it down
>makes daikatana
lul
What can he really do anyway? I mean what cool shit there can be done at all with the genre?
Give me you ideas fellas
Also do remember he once said how cool it'd be to have an FPS WOW. THINK ABOUT IT
I wonder how many of you ''Hurr Daikatana'' faggots have actually played the game.I am not saying its good by the way.
>>335458362
>but this is one of the few times I genuinely want to be wrong
The thing is you won't be wrong, it will be a decent game at best, don't buy into the hype of the 2nd coming of jesus.
>video is like force awakens
it's a remake of daikatana
>>335458481
Planetside? Destiny?
>>335458494
It was ok when I played the game back in 2013, that is. when most of the bugs were fixed. I can't imagine playing it on release though
>>335458481
A shooter with responsive commands no ironsights no cover mechanics no consolization and a decent level design is all i need.
>>335458541
Both are grindy shit though. Well Destiny is pretty grindy shit, but thats it.
>>335458481
an fps where you can run around at 60mph would be a good start
>>335456291
Why Ireland of all places?
All they have is the guys that made the Havoc engine
>>335458629
No taxes
>>335458567
have you tried Titanfall?
>POST YOU'RE REAY FAEC
>>335458659
Not that anon but I would've loved the fuck out of a single player Titanfall.Probably.
>>335458505
Shut up sub-conscious. Please don't make me silence you with alcohol again. I don't want to go back to those dark days.
>>335456291
Hope it won't be shit like Daikatana
>it's first person assfaggots
>>335456291
Every /v/irgin should know the backstory behind the masters of doom.
After Ion Storm hilariously imploded [with two great games produced and one of video gaming's greatest flops] Romero packed it in. The deluxe Texan high-rise offices, the vintage game cabinets, the ridiculous playboy deathmatching girlfriend, the insurance policy on the sports cars.... it was all over.
John Romero was in the wilderness.
He'd spend the next decade and a half programming cell phone games, muddling through his third marriage with a girl half his age from Eastern Europe... and... *shudder*
maintaining his blog.
But still. Design WAS law. The promise had been made.
John Romero was going to make them all his bitch.
If someone told you something about the project he was bullshitting.
Romero didn't say anything to anyone. Even people in his inner circle mostly know next to nothing about it.
>>335457265
There's a reason Oculus side-lined John Carmack him to work solely on mobile VR. He hasn't done anything impressive since Quake 1.
5 hours until they reveal a Kickstarter project more like it.
>>335458494
>use 1.3
>turn off companions
it's a good game
>>335458656
Its not really that low. There was something done a while ago that got rid of the "tax haven" status so I doubt its that
>>335458792
they'll probably make at least a few hundred thousands just by Nostalgia alone. It's a semi-elaborate scheme to secure their retirement-fund.
>>335458792
That isn't true. He has still contributed to gaming tech when he wasn't chasing his dream of being a rocket scientist.
>>335458494
Only played a little, but it seemed okay. Guess it just under-delivered on the advertising campaign.
Companion pathfinding was kinda broke.
Just to remind idiots here.
Ion Storm made not only Daikatana, but also
-Deus Ex
-Anachronox
-Thief: Deadly Shadows
Romero made most of the last good PC games.
Think about it faggets
>>335458956
>He has still contributed to gaming tech
examples?
I'm ready to suck it down.
>>335459071
>-Anachronox
Anachronox kinda sucked. Too many metajokes and the attack animations just killed the pacing.
>>335457550
>Call me when literally any other designer from Doom to Quake era id decides to make something.
American McGee made a sequel to Alice a few years back and it turned out beautiful but mediocre, which upon reading the artbook was discovered to be entirely at the fault of the publisher imposing steeper and steeper deadlines.
Please stop posting about this hack and his mediocre, dated game that he's gonna release
>>335459071
Daikatana and anachronox are pretty bad though.
No one will believe me, buy whatever. It'll be announced pretty soon. I'm from Ireland and live in Ferns in Co.Wexford. It's a bit of a distance from Galway, but my family is from Ballybane, so I head back now and again. I personally know one of the devs on the team. I won't mention his name of course, but here's the info I know:
-It's a voxel based online shooter.
-There's one server and every player plays within this one world.
-There's no limit to how many players can join the server.
-From what I've seen it's a mix between Minecraft, Wurm and Quake, if that even makes sense.
-It looks generic as fuck.
- Romero is only an advisor on the game, and according to my mate he has been in the office twice over the past two years.
-They're seeking additional funding of around $250,000 via Kickstarter.
-Hoping to release in 2017.
That's all i know. The visuals look shit desu.
It's working for Chris Roberts, so why can't it work for him also?
>>335459209
I don't believe you, but I'm gonna screencap your post anyway.
>>335459071
these are made by 2 completely different Ion Storms
>>335458629
For a second I got really excited. I thought you meant LordHavok the guy who made the Dark Places mod for Quake and created Nexuiz.
Then found out that Havok is actually the computer science department from Trinity College.
>>335459209
I belive you and will screencap
Because fuck half-a-wack-Romero-hack
>>335458882
It is OK.
HL1, Serious Sam, quake 2, system shock 2, perfect dark, deus ex, halo, nolf, avp2, & return to castle wolfenstein all outshine it in the same era.
Daikatana could've been good/great, though.
>>335459261
Link to that video?
>>335459209
Hope you're lying out your ass. Legacy is hard to come by and it's burning by the pound these days.
>>335459304
>Daikatana could've been good/great, though.
Goes for just about every game, don't it?

Screen-capping for when you will be hilariously wrong.
>>335459304
out of those it's only comparable to hl nolf rtcw q2 and sam
it's about on par with q2 though i'd say without the companions which ruin the game
>>335459209
It probably could have worked if it wasn't fucking voxelshit. But it does sound strange tho
>tfwIt's gonna be a Doom clone to out-Doom DOOM 2016
>>335459071
>Implying Romero's involvement
All of that happened while Romero was squatting in a back office pushing out Daikatana.
>>335456291
Why does this sound so familiar?
>>335459263
Didnt realise they were trinity lads
>>335459416
U2 have always been doing that shit though thats why everyone here despises Bono

>>335459885
Goddammit, now I'm imagining some hipster ironically dating a tranny.
>>335459475
Yeah, when quake 2 was released Ion Storm scrapped their whole build of Daikatana. Three years of development hell followed.
I forgot max payne as well. A game's quality depends on its mechanics as well as its modern replay value. Daikatana is too little, too late.
It's going to be a kickstarter, and the end result will be underwhelming.
>>335459981
>I'm sucking this dick ironically
Actually I think a few chicks did that to me.
>>335460046
Max Payne is still the best dialogue I've ever heard in a game.
>>335460046
i dunno about that but romero fucked up by hiring his inexperienced doom modder buddies to make a brand new game
>>335457330
>That whole sentence
Mah nigga
Would Romero dare to make a come back like this unless he had digital gold to show us?
Can't wait to see
>>335456291
>The car wasn't a 2000 Ford Falcon
How can they fuck up this bad?
>>335460150
Romero's team had the q1 engine on a licensing deal. q2 came out with better coding, physics and colored lighting [this was legit impressive back in the day] and ion storm decided to reboot their game.
Not unlinke DNF, this man's major release game failed because his team was disorganized and kept racing back to the drawing-boards.
>>335460351
>Look guys I need money to make the greatest game ever
And he made everone his bitch yet again
>>335460351
>It's another "Conveniently forgetting the SINGULAR THING John Romero is remembered for" post

he's saving his wallet for retirement thats for sure
>post your face Romero shows actually something cool
woah
I mean what are the odds
>>335460626
That's an unreasonably competent illustration for an instructional image.
>tfw I'll be at work when the timer hits zero
Fuck.
>>335456291
I hope he's aware of the expectations and hope.
No pressure, Romero.
Have you guys played his remake of E1M8? He's still got the touch.
>that glorious Cherokee hair
Take me, Romero.
>>335460715
If he was capable of doing anything cool, he wouldn't wait fifteen fucking years to do it.
>>335460882
Maybe he decided to give us what he originally envisioned Quake to be.
>>335460794
>Doom map that plays about the same as literal thousands of other Doom maps made by absolute amateurs
Really easy to tell when someone hasn't played very many Doom wads/latches onto something because of the history of its creator rather than the quality of the creation.
Hey guys remember that time Romero flew a 16 year old Romanian fangirl named Raluca to the US in order to give her the D
In high school I had a friend who looked a lot like John Romero
Now he's a tranny.
I apologise for that story, it bought nothing of value to this thread.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHREAOSkyms
Just download his recent creation if you wanna see if he still got it.
>>335460517
Anon, that looks really tight.
>>335460954
What'd she look like?
>>335461049
Not worth it.
>>335460914
oh sure, like how the prequels were how how Lucas originally envisioned Star Wars to be
>>335461049
She looks a lot like Carmack.
>>335461095
Wew, I can see it.
>>335461095
The final puzzle piece falls into place
>>335461049
not worth it
but who I am to judge him being virgin and all
>>335461082
Quake wasn't intended to originally be a 3D Doom. They got burned out when trying to make it and instead went with what we've got.
>>335461049
>that thing
>16 year old
>>335461095
Holy shit, you're right. You think he hatefucked her after Carmack booted him?
>>335461095
wait a minute
>>335460960
No, you did right.
I'm in the mood of some tranny porn. Wish me happy fap.

>saving FPS genre
>Announces Old school FPS arena game
>exclusive to mobiles
>>335461049
Eh.
desu I'd just have gone for a whore at the fraction of the cost instead of giving dyed hair mcrestingbitchface here a free vacation.
>>335461134
And it turned out better than what they wanted it to be.
I'm not saying the whole Quake RPG stuff based on Carmack and Romero's D&D campaigns is bad, but fuck me I want another Lovecraft FPS with Shamblers and Vores and Shrub-Niggertits and shit.
And nailguns. Nailguns are way cooler than miniguns.
>>335461206
He was about due for his midlife crisis at that point
>>335460793
No pressure?! If this game is shit, there will be a million shitposts in a day with them all being 'you are my bitch now' messages.
>>335461134
>>335461248
quake was gonna be kinda like hexen with more rpg stuff i guess then they just went "fuck it we need to release so lets just make it a shooter "
>>335461206
He married her.
>>335461253
We it ever happen to us too?
I'm 32 and always though that I dont care anymore, but I'm afraid there'd be time when I'll care.
>>335461134
The tech just wasn't available to make it what they wanted. And they didn't have the time or funds for Carmack to build the tech either.
Which is a pity since it sounded interesting as fuck in Masters of Doom.
>>335461095
full
circle
>>335461353
Well at least he got pussy eh

It's the Bloodborne situation all over again. Thankfully without the platform warriors, just memers.

You guys
GUYS
You guys listen
Listen what if
What if Raluca
What if she was just John Carmack with hair dye
But they couldn't be honest with themselves about their feelings, so "Raluca" was born
It won't do if this game is merely OK
After Daikatana and his hiatus from big game development, this needs to be a 9.5/10 at the very least

Now that Occulus is pretty much done, do you think he'll be on board? I hope so.

>>335463386
On the contrary. Back in the coding was hard and engies were expensive. Nowdays you can build everything you want with a blender and unity. I mean if you have even a little talent.

I once played Timesplitters 2 virus on Mexican Mission with my cousins for 12 hours straight. At no point did we ever get bored, how the hell did Timesplitters turn out so well?
>As such, exploration became a key tenet of the design. "It's what keeps you going to the next level," says Romero - the element of surprise. As Romero sits in his office and runs through the first level of the game, you see a soggy green swamplike territory in Japan with metallic structures cleaving through algae-soaked rocks. "By the time you leave the first episode, you've already seen seven of the monsters in the game," he makes sure to point out. "You see this crocodile?" he asks, pointing at the screen to highlight a strange creature that looks like a crocodile cast in silver. "You will never see him again in the game after this level."
>Romero's final submitted design for Daikatana included plans for four time periods, 24 levels, 25 weapons, and 64 monsters, in addition to a whole secret level for each episode. "When John came back with Daikatana, it was just a huge epic game," recalls Mike Wilson. At the time, Ion Storm was dead set on finishing the most ambitious first-person shooter ever in a mere seven months. All told, this calculation would prove to be perhaps Ion's greatest mistake.
trully a shame
>>335463736
Man, I really need to get one of these Timesplitters games to play with my friends.

I honestly think the game was wayyyyy too ahead of its time. PC gamers still don't have a good coop shooter other than Left 4 Dead and Killing Floor. And both those aren't campaign coop experiences with RPG elements.
If daikatana came out today and had working online and rebalanced enemies I think it would be a really good game.
Though the companion makes the game literally unplayable and the enemies/weapons suck. The RPG stuff makes it fun in some ways.

>>335471439
The new UT is pretty sweet, but it's technically not "released" since it's still a pre-alpha
It's on course to be a damn good old school arena shooter though, given the original impetus was a bunch of epic devs feeling incredibly nostalgic about UT99 mechanics and design.

Trick question. Thee has never been a good game.
>mfw Romero releases an new Build engine game that has been optimized to run on new OSes and hardware
>mfw sprites, voxels, and MIDI music
>no crowdfunding
>no DLC or microtransactions, just one or two expansions that actually add new content
>references to pop culture and one-liners
>no appealing to SJWs
>basic, fast-paced arena multiplayer
I could finally die happy.

it better be fast and it better be good

HAHAHA
THAT FAGGOT IS NOW WORKING AT A FUCKING GAS STATION
I am so fucking happy , he wasted millions on daikatana and did never deliver anything good after he left carmack.
Fucking faggot he deserved everything what did happen to him, now please tell me where exactly is he working I could actually visit him and tell him to clean my car.

NO, DONT FALL FOR THIS SHIT. I PLAYED EYE ONCE AND IM STILL TRAPPED WITHIN MY CYCLES OF GUILT

Titanfall isn't nearly as bad as it's reputation
The price was ridiculous though
Everyone is expecting a kickstart, right? I don't want anyone to be disappointed when it turns out to be a kickstarter
>>335471736
I want to download UT but its so big. i will get around to it soon since i now have a rig that can actually play it. Is it anything like Q3A?
>>335471747
i doubt it but who knows interceptor are licencing the build engine for the bombshell prequel
>It's a "Older developer makes a play for nostalgia money while creating a broken/unfinished game" episode.
>>335471838
Kickstarter at the least, yeah. Or a 2 hour stream that ends in a Kickstarter announcement.
Wind right out of the sails but as long as there's a game they're presenting, with gameplay, then there's something to work with.
No more fucking concept art.
Post your face when it's a good modernized DOOM game that doesn't use the DOOM name

Everytime I picture a 90's Romero saying that I just die.
That line is fucking golden, seriously.
We need a new thread. There's less than 50 minutes until John Romero makes us suck it down.
>>335471865
Not that anon, but no. It's UT after all.Did everyone forget that UT4 was suppose to release in 2014?

>Is it anything like Q3A
no it's like UT if you want to get your quake on you may as well play reflex which is just a better version of quake

Yeah I can see it now

I would hardly call tribes, even the first game in the series, an old school shooter.
>>335471934
>it fails horribly because no one cares about arena shooters anymore
>>335471785
The movement is basically lifted from UT99, with the dodge mechanics expanded again since 2k4. There's some wallrunning stuff that lets you use momentum to bridge certain gaps if you take a good line through them that's surprisingly deep when combined with clever map design. The guns are still as good as they've always been, and they've gotten over the retarded overdesign of UT3.

You were sent to a faraway moon base after assault your commanding officer and there may or may not be some twisted experiments involved teleportation going on at the same time.

Why was Bombshell so bad? You'd figure girl Douk wouldn't be a hard gimmick to handle.
