Doom reminded me why I fell in love with video games in the first place, and how my frustrations with the industry were valid afterall
>>338199518
>/v/ hates it
literally the opposite of true you retard, it's been nothing here but praise since it released
>>338199581
theres a whole thread filled with shitposting about the reviews and casual babies or w/e the fuck
>>338199518
>/v/ hates it
Nigga, have you not seen all the threads singing its praises? /v/ has a huge boner for doomguy and the lore at the moment.
I thought the campaign was amazing. Multiplayer is okay for a quick blast now and then
>>338199518
You should have stopped listening to /v/ when they said Halo 2 had the best campaign, along with ODST & Reach were the best Halo games. Most of the time /v/ has shit taste in games, but there are times when they are actually right.
>>338199970
Are you new to /v/?
>>338200415
No, I just don't go on it as much anymore.
>>338200353
Halo 2 did have the best campaign until ODST came out though
>>338199518
>/v/ hates it
the fuck are you talking about Doom 4 is probably the only game that was ever liked by /v/
>>338199581
Don't you fucking lie nigger
>>338200629
Nah, I've seen this happen before. This whole thing is Human Revolution 2.0.
>>338199518
>/v/ hates it
no, actually it is liked
>>338200578
ODST would have been better if Rookie got to do a bit more than come up with headcanon as he walked through the city.
So wait until sales?
>>338199518
Before it came out /v/ hated it and said it would be shit/casual/ect but after it came out they did a complete 540 and it gets nothing but praise here now

Here's a tip for when you get back to it, don't bother upgrading the shotgun, the super shotgun outclasses it in every respect, once you get it, there's no point to the normal shotgun.
>>338201353
okay, i used the charge pistol a lot, but in the "crater" or whatever it is, the first real outside area, the enemies were pretty grouped up so i was shotgunning
is there any way to reduce the damage from the fireballs? they do about 75% of my hp
>>338201048
yes
>>338201235
>>start game on nightmare
Why
>>338201353
I used it mostly for imps and shit when I didn't want to spend two shells per shot.
But I've only done ultra violence so far
>Reddit starts to openly like D44m
>/v/ hates it now
how long until this happens?
>>338201641
why not? i don't want to finish the game in a couple hours, plus a lot of the posts i read said the game is more challenging/fun on nightmarei might restart on a lower difficulty though since i die too fast
my understanding is that if the singleplayer was even half as bad as the multiplayer it'd be 0/10
but apparently the singleplayer is pretty great.
by the way, does nightmare in this have respawns?
>>338201978
yes, you get to restart from a checkpoint if you die on nightmare, but on ultra EXTREME nightmare you don't
>>338199518
We all like NuDOOM though
>>338202068
i meant in doom 1/2 stuff respawned 30 seconds after you killed it
is that still a thing?because it fucking sucked
/v/ hates literally everything. This board exists just to rage and shitpost as hard as possible. You dont come here for actual vidya discussion anymore.
>>338201813
I had my first run on ultra violence and I honestly never felt that challenged until the last few missions when shit just gets out of hand. No idea how hard nightmare is but ultra violence is definitely the "default" difficulty for anyone who isn't a bumbling retard like polygon
I wont play it because of the arrow in the knee thing.

Nah son it's useful as fuck.
>>338202185
oh sorry, i thought you meant the player
i haven't seen any respawns of the npcs
>>338202256
okay, i might give it a shot instead
the vast majority of what you're going to read on this board is conspicously fashionable, boring opinions. it has been this way for many years. just leave.
>>338202334
>Land of circle jerks and terrible layout
Nah, it's not like vidya discussion happens there either. But don't pretend that /v/ is anything but a cesspool. Basically the internet is not where you go to talk about video games anymore.
>>338199518
Not listening to /v/ is like the second thing you learn here. Everyone smart enough not to join the super secwet cwub figures that out when Godhand or Platinum get mentioned.
>>338201813
Thought the same, friendo, but i'll be honest. Nightmare will fuck you up REAL fucking good unless you are High Tier in FPS's. Its not just not missing, its also constantly moving and shooting and still dying to 2 hits from the back. Legit got to the elevator after the tutorial and told myself, "nah man, just go ultra-violence". I realized i wouldn't like my journey from the get-go as nightmare.
The people who say it's shit is because their mom didn't give them money to buy itThanks mom
>>338199518
The multiplayer is absolute dogshit. That was all anyone had played and was what people were shitting on.
>>338199518
>Could have been a must-buy if they included mod support
>They don't include mod support
Why
because most people that browse boards like /v/ and /tv/ feel like they need to be sheep and follow 4chan's contrarian opinions that go against popular notion
thats literally all there is to it, teenagers thinking they are being really cool and edgy by going against the grain, hurrrrrr xx is popular and really well recieved, im gonna say its shit to fit in with my fellow 4channers!!
if you listen to what /v/ says EVER, you only have yourself to blame. me, i only come here for the porn
>>338201235
same poster, but why is the multiplayer heralded as being so terrible? i haven't tried it yet but i see everyone talk very poorly about it
>>338203069
they wanted snap maps to catch on instead
>>338203225
It feels like dogshit, character movement, the guns everything.
>>338202341
Bump
>>338203225
made by a different company, movement is terrible, weapons are unbalanced, trys its hardest to be call of duty but just ends up being shit, loadouts in a fucking doom/quake game (WHAT THE FUCK) 2 weapon limit - just kill me - its just awful
>>338199518
why the fuck couldnt they just remake doom2 with mod support
>>338203317
>>338203343
does the multiplayer have a different engine than the single player?
>>338203449
Does it matter? You can use the same engine and have different gameplay. case and point, Crysis 3 and Sonic Boom.
>>338203225
It's Quake with DOOM assets. Nothing special at all. Probably something to play when you get bored of the entire game. Even SnapMap is fucking stupid.
>>338203782
>it's quake with doom assets
you're hilariously wrong
although i wish you weren't
torrent when?
>>338200578
No it wasn't, Arbiter's missions ruined the campaign by a whole lot. Arby's missions were linear scripted gray corridors because of this heavy push for story. There was barely any UNSC weapons and vehicles in them, the Flood were broken and took up most of his missions, you were constantly locked in areas until the game let you pass, Brutes were bullet sponges. the Covenant weapons and vehicles were not as good as their UNSC counterparts, and Arbiter's boss fights were terrible. A freaking Elite Ranger with holograms and berserking Brute with a hammer, the cliff hanger ending didn't help. They should have just made Arbiter's campaign DLC then the campaign would have been better.
ODST felt like Halo but with none of the epicness the Chief brought to the table. Sparse ammo, empty overworld, boring encounters, firefight moments in campaign, not many unique set pieces, bad characterization, and boring and very short story and levels made it one of my least favorite games in the franchise. It also didn't help that Bungie didn't stick to the original plan about the game being about stealth. We had ODSTs being able to rip gun turrets out, move faster than Chief with them, destroy vehicles with their bare hands, lift heavy weapons, beat down aliens, take multiple shots because Stamina was just Shields. It also didn't help that ODST couldn't use Human made equipments or dual wield. Bungie should have left it as DLC because it sure as hell wasn't worth $60.
>>338203435
>Devs need to implement mod support

is it possible to run it in a normal borderless windowed that still runs in the background? i tried setting it borderless but it feels like fullscreen, and setting in the cfg
r_fullscreenwindow=1
r_fullscreen=0
>>338203934
Wish granted.
You ever played Quake Live?
They're pretty fucking similar besides the guns, finishers, player races, not much else at all.
>>338204078
>people are STILL mad about Arbiter missions
>after all these fucking years
Go fuck yourself, the bits with the Arbiter had a signthly different gameplay but mostly they gave a different and refreshing perspective on the world of Halo. I loved it. The last tier of the game as MC sucks ass, it's linear as fuck too, for arby missions it's quite the opposite, they go from linear to more open and interesting, the last mission being the culmination of it.
>>338204078
>Arbiter's missions ruined the campaign by a whole lot
the gas giant mission was fun as fuck and he only had like 4 missions, kill yourself
>>338204078
biggest problem about the arbiter missions (and halo missions in general) is that they don't seem to want to allow you to kill humans even though, you know, that was the fucking point of the covenant's existence. i heard it was to keep the ratings down but that doesnt make sense for the US at least since it was rated M up until guardians.
therefor you get stuck fighting covie-clones and flood in his missions, or you never really fight insurrectionists (which couldve been added to at least avoid the "killing the good guys" stigma)
>>338204613
You're the trash that ruined FPS you piece of shit enjoy COD trash. Arbiter's missions were trash because they didn't play like your average Halo missions. You don't fucking gimp exploration, half of the fucking sandbox, or good enemy encounters for fucking story you bitchass faggot. I already know Halo 2 was your first Halo game, a game ONLY known for its good Multiplayer because its campaign was a pile of shit.
See >>338199518 this >>338204613 right here is a primary example of why you DO NOT listen to some of the shitheads on /v/. Their taste is pure shit.
I'm in the mood to play the classic games, but it turns out my copies (from some "Collector's Edition" collection or some shit like that) aren't compatible with Windows 7 or beyond. What versions should I download? Does anybody have that pic handy with all the info on it?
>>338204906
This was another reason I didn't like his missions, I'm in the fucking Covenant why couldn't I kill humans?
>>338204704
You see this bitch >>338205083. Go get hit by a truck.
>>338200578
Halo 3 has the best campaign.
>>338203727
no, i was just asking
>>338203782
okay, i'll give it a shot later
>>338202671
trying it on ultra violence now, and it's really easy compared to nightmare. do you go invuln when you do the "honor kills"? i didn't know about that when i was trying nightmare before
>>338205301
It and Halo CE had the best campaign. Both didn't gimp large open levels for story. They also allowed you to utilize the sandbox in unique ways with awesome vehicle gameplay and brilliant enemy encounters.
>>338204613
>>338204704
i remember being hyped for halo 2 because it was going to be about defending earth from a huge ass covenant invasion. (see also: the early mombasa preview playthrough), but instead it ends up being like 5 covenant ships that get BTFO of orbit and the last one runs off before you do anything besides cross a bridge, then you spend the rest of the game fucking around another halo. also halo 3 you are driving around the countryside for a few missions then you're on the ark for the rest of the game.
thats probably why people liked ODST, you were actually on earth and in an urban environment fighting to repel an occupation. also for all their flaws H4 and Reach had a few good urban missions as well.
>>338205532
Halo CE reused areas way too much
>>338205083
If you care about Halo 2, a console FPS enough to write all this shit, then you're probably what's wrong with modern FPS.
If I want a good competitive FPS I play Quake or UT. I play Halo for the atmosphere, for the setting, to lay back and have some slow-paced fun, I don't care you faggots got mad because you expected shit from a console shooter. The arby missions added an interesting point of view, it was more than I asked from the sequel of a console shooter, if you literally wanted more of the same then you must LOVE CoD.
The Halo 2 campaign is the best in the series, I had no online back then. And I used to play CE LANs on pc with friends all the fucking time during college, but nice assumptions faggot ;)
>>338199518
>singleplayer
>fps
>2016
>"fun"
>>338205556
Defending Earth sounds way more generic and boring than what we had. And the missions on Earth in 2 were enough, more would've made the game repetitive as fuck, I'm glad Halo 2 has tons of different environment instead.
>>338205121
Anyone?
>>338205679
True but watching the Covenant, Flood and Sentinels kill each other in Two Betrayals was fun, there also The Maw warthog run made up for the level itself.
>>338205532
>Both didn't gimp large open levels for story.
>Some retard actually believe this
Remove your hate goggles you remind me of the MGS2 haters but with even less arguments other than "I can't handle a game not being exactly what I expected". Halo 3 has the most linear missions in the series. The only few good ones are really good especially because they're the few ones not linear.
>>338205740
I like Halo so fucking what. You clearly are not a fan if you liked the trash that gave us modern FPSs. Go back to your Quake and UT. Halos CE & 3 and Chief's missions in 2 are the only good Halo games bitch.
>>338204906
Would humans make interesting enemies though? Sure there are tanks & all but I doubt the infantry is as diverse as the Covenant.
>>338199518
One anon in another thread said that Bethesda's epic misstep in marketing the fucking game damn near cost it's entire success.
Who's bright idea was to focus on the shitty outsourced multiplayer?
The single player is fucking fantastic and anyone who thinks otherwise is retarded. They really fucked up by putting out that multiplayer beta though because wow it was fucking shite and the single player doesn't play like that at all. I know there are going to be a fuckton of people that never buy or play this games campaign because the multiplayer left the taste of dick in their mouth.
>>338199518
>That last level of Hell where the music pauses and then starts back up during glory kills
God damn this game was so cool. I actually exclaimed "I fucking love video games" during that fight.
>>338206020
>Halo 3 has the most linear missions in the series.
Shut the fuck up you Halo 2 faggot. The only missions that were good in Halo 2 were mainly the Chief ones because they were more opened with exploration and they had some cool sequences such as killing a Prophet, and watching the Covenant kill itself. Halo 3 continued on the tradition of large level design which let you screwed around with the sandbox that's more than I can say for Arby's missions in Halo 2. It never had anything to do with playing another character that isn't Chief. It's the fact that Bungie can't stick with Halo fun gameplay and always have to dumb that shit down every time you play as another character. Was it so hard for Bungie to make a Halo game play like a fucking Halo game without Chief?
>>338206552
I agree 110%
>>338206118
>some people are still THIS mad at arby missions
I thanks god every day for not being a fucking loser like you who cares that much about fucking video games.
I mean come on anon, after all these years?

I wouldn't be saying this if you shitheads would layoff the "Halo 2 muh best campaign" meme when it wasn't. Again Halo 2 was Good for its MP that's it. Now go back to talking about D44m you stupid faggot.

On 4chan in general you have to understand that EVERYTHING gets hate, but with a keen eye you'll spot the common consensus. /v/ likes DOOM, most hate threads are shitposters who'd do anything to avoid any genuine debate.

>Snapmap
That's not old-school Doom modding. That's a shit version. No thank you. I want huge mods like Brutal Doom or plutonia or TNT. That's not possible with fucking snap map. RIP in pieces DOOM modding.
>>338207224
I don't hate Halo 2 at all, I don't even care for the cut content I actually feel sorry for Bungie and what they went through for this game, but that doesn't mean I will give them the benefit of the doubt for throwing the large open level design of Halo CE and Chief's missions in 2 away for Arby in 2. You can make a large game with story that's not heavily scripted or linear but some devs just choose not to that. Going through the same color rooms over and over again gets boring this is why Arbiters missions were terrible, too scripted, too repetitive, and too boring. The claustrophobia of his missions didn't help.
>>338200353
Why do you post this in every Doom thread?
Is it autism?
>>338205473
Yes, performing glory kills gives you iframes which can be crucial to your survival but also a mistake because if you do it in a bad spot you'll get murdered the second you come out of your iframes.
>>338208130
Simple because /v/ has bad taste and it's best not to really listen to you shitheads. Every month and week you bitch about how D44m was a piece of shit and how you are a shill if you get it, with your hive mind thought patterns. After game got released and many played they finally shut the fuck up about how it was bad and started praising it. This just showed that you guys taste is bad when you can't give something a chance before it's released.
