Thread: Doom Details Revealed

    Default Doom Details Revealed

    No, no damned video for those not attending QuakeCon....that F!cking sucks! Hate how things have changed...anyway

    Anyway, at least some news about the game.

    • Fast-paced combat against multiple enemies at once - Doom 3 this ain't.
    • Set outside a massive UAC research facility on Mars as it's being invaded by the forces of Hell.
    • Hellknights, cyberdemons, revenants, mancubii, and other classic monsters were spotted throughout the demo.
    • Classic Doom weapons, including the fan-favorite double-barrell shotgun return. Plasma rifle, rocket launcher, and the good old chainsaw were also shown off.
    • Go fast. "Doom is not about about taking cover" said executive producer Marty Stratton.
    • Doom is powered by IdTech 6, and will be for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. They are "committed" to 1080P at 60 frames-per-second.
    • Wonderfully gory close range executions, including special ones for dropping down on enemies from above.
    • Revenants now have jetpacks and can hover about while firing rockets at you.
    • At least one weapon, the combat shotgun, has an alternate fire mode, which allows you to charge up and release multiple shells in rapid succession.
    • Sprinting, double-jumping and mantling are all possible, making for very fluid motion during combat.
    • Enemies can teleport in for old-school style ambushes
    • Dying results in a crazy fatality scene depending on what killed you a la Dead Space. Revenants rip your arms off and punch straight through your combat helment.
    • Old school mechanics. No reloading your clip, hold as many weapons as you want, health and ammo pick-ups etc. NO REGENERATING HEALTH.

    It sucks that they are so secretive about Doom 4.... id Software isnt what they used to be.... bowing to their masters with a ball gag in their mouth, begging to be whipped...

    I still remember the Doom III vid they released at some Apple conference with Steve Jobs to show off the Geforce 3...

    But the release date hasn't even been announced? and to say they not the same company because they being secretive is ridiculous. They may not be the same company, but that's not a valid reason to say so.
