Mmmmmm Doom 3

hmmm. I have never played doom before.

i think there is free versions of the old game. :sigh:

was it the first 3d game ? doom ?

well… strictly speaking, it wasn’t 3d. as for downloads… many people forget that doom was actually shareware. You could download it, play the first episode of levels and then buy the second two episodes if you liked it. You should be able to find the shareware knocking around somewhere :slight_smile:

Castle Wolfenstein 3D was the first 3d shooter. Well it was not really 3d (the bodies always turned to you when you move around them :P), but it was then considered as 3d. Wolfenstein was the very first, and after that there was Doom.

hmmm I though it was doom.

cool. but I have never played that game. ;(

You start in jail of Castle Wolfenstein and you have to escape. All the walls were light blue :stuck_out_tongue: And when you killed an enemie his body turns along with you when you rotate around it :stuck_out_tongue: The levels were a big maze.

it’s called sprites. forever may they rest in peace :slight_smile:

yeah, Wolfenstein was first… but since Id made that as well… yeah… they are gods :beam:

HL 1 > Doom 3.

Although I haven’t played it yet, I’m betting my money that the game will be like Unreal 2 and sell based on the name and the “wow it looks pretty” effect. Personally I really don’t care what a game looks like, just as long as it’s got great gameplay. But I’ll hear what people say about the game once it comes out, and if it’s good, i might get it.

HL2 and Doom 3 can run “very good” and fast on a p4 ?

but the problem I have a geforce2 is it laggy then ?

Depends which version. If it’s a MX200, it will probably lag. If it’s a Ultra, then there’s less chance it’ll lag. Combination P4 (fast) with GeForce2 (slow) is kinda weird.

Well I saw the trailer and even with my limited appreciation of FPS games, I can see it looks pretty special. :slight_smile:

I just love the atmosphere… D3 looks sh*tscary :thumb:

yes, I just downloaded the movie.

man this is scary ****

Especially the shadow and fire effects ! They’re amazing ! By the way, have you downloaded the E3 HL² presentation ? That one has an incredibly nice level which demonstrates the physics.

**ok… wtf?

do you actually know what you’re talking about? Id released their first Doom3 multiplayer screenshots a few weeks ago… :-\ ‘not gonna have multiplayer’ lol! :sure: **

'course not, I’m just ranting.

YES I have it 2 !!!

man THATs the cooles, OMG, the hl2 engine is so cool :love:

I’m just saying that HL2 will have the MOD community to back it up (cs2, TF2 to mention a couple). Doom has never beena multiplayer focused game, more interested in the single player spookiness stuff. Sure, HL2 is gonna have a great SP, but the MP stuff is what’s gonna make it good.

yes you are right about that :slight_smile:

I wonder how CS will look like in this super great HL2 engine :love:

Valve = $$$

um… hello? I think that whole “I’m just ranting” thing is applying all over again… Perhaps Doom wasn’t very multiplayer focused because it was released in 1994? Jeez… you must be completely forgetting the 3 quake games that Id subsequently released that all had an absolutely phenomenal online following…?

And the original Doom games weren’t made to be particularly spooky. And I think you’ll find that HL was far more orientated towards singleplayer than multiplayer… did you play HL standard multiplayer?? It was f*cking awful! Wasn’t til CS and TF was released that anyone actually bothered playing it.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!!! this game is soooooooooooooooooo fu*king scary!!! and the gameplay is so awesome!!! like there is this one part when you are in a bathroom and a movie happens, where a monster eats a zombie body, then you start to play and you only see the zombie body (the zombie gets up and you have to kill it) then theres this mirror thats looks awesome, and when you look in the mirror you see the monster come out of the darkness and smack you in the back! its sooooooo **** scary!

the physics in D3 also are very well, when you run into a body, your legs move it around and you can shoot stuff and they seem real, but im very very very very sure HL2 will have better physics after all the demos i seen

(oh and by the way nali, unreal 2 wasnt just about being pretty either :P)

I’m sorry… but Id make games that are in a completely different league to the likes of UT2k3… for starters, they don’t care for deadlines - “it’s done when it’s done”. How many other developers do you know that do that? Id always deliver the goods… Doom 3 will be no different
