Doom 4 General

Thanks for taking this off /vr/

my dad works at id and he said that the monsters we've been shown are the initial machinations, later on they get more twisted and hell-like as they return to hell from the uac holding cells

There's a shitton of official streams on Bethesda's official channel, I think.
And yes, you do want to fuck it.

I mean if this is true we kinda knew already

Also fuck me but Doom Hell never looked that Hellish to me in general, bar some levels

Thanks for not screaming like a child for once.

So is this general going to be dead for the next day, then blow up because of all of the snapmap sharing? Also final boss spoilered.
Anybody know if there's any hardcore DRM for the singleplayer/snapmap that could fuck piratebros over

I recall seeing talk of a battle rifle, with sights you can use, how is that, anyone who used it in the MP, how was it like?

MP only, hitscan, 3 shot burst
Vanilla as fuck

So evidently the Codex has viewable 3d models.
As an autist, that's more than enough reasons to give this a play.

>doom 4 final boss was just a grunt in doom 2 usermaps

>usermaps

There's your problem, Tim.

>problem
no, my salvation

Don't worry, I'm sure "that guy" is going to make a snapmap with nothing but a tiny room and 50 cyberdemons.
Your salvation is a tad simplified, but it's still there.

wow.wad vD4

which demon from all doom games is the most fuckable

Spider Mastermind. The brain is soft and squishy you can could basically jam it anywhere that isn't the mouth.

Reportedly offline snapmap can be done on the console version, but there probably isn't much point without access to the servers since people probably won't use anything else to share maps.

>3 shot burst
What? Only?
No regular semi-auto available? That's so gay.

How accurate is it?

I don't know if there are more firemodes available, because that was in the beta and in the game you unlock shit

The more important question being why the fuck do you care about the outsourced multiplayer in the first place?

it's like 3/4ths of the game dude

Not him but i thought the multiplayer was pretty fun
it's basically halo but still

>Corrax tablets
Hexen 3 confirmed?

>it's like 3/4ths of the game dude

are you shitposting or actually retarded

>why the fuck do you care about the outsourced multiplayer in the first place
I don't, I'm asking because if you played the beta, you got to use the weapons.

It should be approximate to singleplayer, right?

nhb you're incredibly optimistic for a Veeky Forums poster. not an insult or anything, it's just weird.

The Rifle is MP only lol

>nhb
Stop trying to make nhb happen

ngl it's already a thing

>for a Veeky Forums poster

I can smell the new from here.
It's been discussed to death how SP is the main focus of the game with MP being a shitty corporate afterthought required by Beth. The main replay value is going to come from SnapMap, not Dead Space 2 multiplayer 2.0

WHAT?!

AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGHHHHH!!!!!!!

I JUST WANTED A HIGH POWERED COMBAT RIFLE TO OPERATE WITH AGAINST DEMONS

That looks like a lot of beliefs based on corporate hype and not like facts you can verify in a released and finished game?

Especially since it relies on the assumption that people are going to use SnapMap extensively enough to keep the singleplayer alive, but for multiplayer it just has to be accessible and have a new map every month that the few SnapMap users will make.

tl;dr multiplayer is far easier to keep alive

>based off corporate hype

Based off the streamed footage shown, autist. Recent footage. It's nowhere near .wad customization, but it's still something. It will keep the game alive for the same reason Mario Maker is still active to this day.

Sorry user.
Maybe someone will make Hideous Destructor: D44M edition.

What kind of snapmaps will you guys do? I've been thinking of a friendly Cacodemon escort mission.

This isn't a video of a vibrant mapping community, it's a video of a mapping program.

It's available in Snapmap singleplayer/coop maps as well if you're really desperate for it.

The stuff that messes with the game logic looks interesting but there hasn't been any footage of regular single player maps in Snapmap that don't look awful when compared to the campaign footage.

okay yeah, you're pretty stupid.

Which in turn will be used by said community. Are you dense, m8?

Seconding this
I'm going to pirate at first, then buy if I like it. Thing is I'm an antisocial asshat who loves single player. So snapmap is the make or break for me. Can I just make a map and play it? All offline?

I know i can google this by the time someone replies, but what's the straight answer on campaign CO-OP and is it 2 players or more?

Nope, single only

>post worst meme
>wants a valid answer

Campaign isn't co-op. Snapmaps are up to four players.

i'd fuck that

>12 posters

One could say this general is doomed

i'll just leave this here

fuck off go your dead general and suck cock there instead won't you

take a chill pill i only posted a image

Don't you have some furry porn to post and shitposting to do in another Veeky Forums thread?

>columbine.wad isn't in there

Because it's not worth playing.

it is if you want to take a trip down edge lane

Columbine.wad was made years later for ZDoom by some edgelord. Has nothing to do with Columbine shooters aside that it fits "My shitty school/house/room in Doom lol" category.

So, how many different guns are in the game?

Why does /v/ hate this game so much?

Because they desperately want it to be good, but everything tells that it's not gonna be.

because it's named DOOM

Because its not gonna live up to their high expectations, resulting in constant threads of people insulting the game and calling anons who like it "shills" for a month.

See: /v/ is tsundere for videogames

Other way around, friend.

>Promised 12 hour campaign
Which considering how devs like to bload such numbers means 8-9 hours max
>constant monster arenas
Common techniqu used to prolong the gameplay- they gonna take up 2/3 of the gameplay time, which means that the amount of actual content would be enough to fill only 3-3,5 hour game, if you dont take shitty arena combat into equation.

Now, where was I wrong again?

This sold me on the game. I dont want to support the jewish practice of pre ordering but I want to play it, and its practical to pre load. Not sure what to do.

>The dev said this but they're wrong

Perfect logic.
>constant monster arenas

Oh shit, it's almost like DOOM or something.

Face it, the game isn't perfect, but it's doing a damn good job in being faithful to both the original game and community. You're looking for reasons to hate it.
And nobody gives a shit about the multiplayer.

>Common techniqu used to prolong the gameplay- they gonna take up 2/3 of the gameplay time, which means that the amount of actual content would be enough to fill only 3-3,5 hour game, if you dont take shitty arena combat into equation.
Not him but I don't get what you mean by this
This is a shooter with basically no story, the combat is the content
Can you return preorders on Steam?

I would rather recommend against it but you know.

Thats the thing, I dont know if that complicates it because it also gives you for free Wolfenstein. If I pre order I can play it at twelve when it unlocks.

>Oh shit, it's almost like DOOM or something

... You never played original Doom, are you?

In Doom 1/2 you are almost never locked in, forced to fight monsters in a confinement. Most of the time you have a choice - you can retreat to restock supplies, run past them or engage. Doom '16 doesent give you such options, which makes it closer to Serious Sam and Painkiller than original Doom.

>This is a shooter with basically no story, the combat is the content

There are several different type of shoters qhere story is irrelevant - "Arena shooters" like Serious Sam and Painkiller where you are locked in the room with mobs regularily and have to kill them all to advance, and "Maze shooters", where you are free to explore the levels and have much more combat options, Doom, Duke, Quake are examples.

>Perfect logic.
>what is reading comprehension
Devs like to bloat the number by pretending the player is completely retarded and sees mouse+kb for the first time, also takes all the time in the world to find collectibles and is terrible at doing so. "30 hour campaign" in dev speak usually means 10-13 hours of gameplay for sufficiently proficient player. It's like you're new to videogame industry in general.

>You never played the original Doom, are you

Blow me. The original doom pulled that shit all the time. Or are you forgetting about getting swarmed by 6 pinkys out of nowhere? Horde of imps just around a corner? Don't pull that no true scotsman bullshit.

>you're new to the video game industry in general

So once again, your argument "the devs are just lying" right out of your ass. It's fucking Id. They know what they're doing.

Doom 4?

the SP has the pistol, chainsaw, shotgun, SSG, Heavy Assault Rifle, chaingun, rocket launcher, plasma gun, Gauss cannon, and BFG

Every weapon except for the pistol and chainsaw can have mods

The point that guy was making is very rarely are you FORCED to stand and fight, speedruns involve skirting past monsters and avoiding a lot of combat, it's not often you're locked in a room to fight demons.

That being said, I don't mind how Doom 4's doing it, the closed off arena thing is more popular with AAA shooters if it's going for an "old school" style

Bumping this.
Literally the only monster I haven't seen. Evidently it's a hellish version of the cyberdemon.

>That being said, I don't mind how Doom 4's doing it, the closed off arena thing is more popular with AAA shooters if it's going for an "old school" style

My problem with that is when AAA shooters look back to Sam and Painkiller while calling names of Doom and Duke as inspiration.

Thanks for not being an asshat unlike the other dude, but I still disagree to some extent. I get the arena-thing, but I highly doubt D44M is as closed off as you think. We've seen how big the SP maps and snapmap maps can be. Why would they constantly lock the door behind you only to unlock it when the monsters are dead?

And speedrunning is a very specific and dedicated thing, so I wouldn't put that into part of the equation.

But Painkiller was great.

Painkiller was good. It's succesors sucked all the dicks though. I don't remember any shooter that has done arena fighting right ever since. Serious Sam doesen't count as it is more of a "horde management" shooter.

Being from the /vr/ doom threads, I try to be civil and nice with people in general. Especially when it comes to Doom.

I don't picture it being SUPER closed off, but the brunt of encounters WILL be closed off, they're going for a 5 point style score system while fighting demons, and there'll be the ocassional demon or few zombies, but the main focus of combat is gonna be in closed arenas, that way the devs can focus on arenas built for each encounter with platforms and shit to climb up on

>Being from the /vr/ doom threads, I try to be civil and nice with people in general.

You sure you're from the right general? Because last I checked /vr/ doom was one half decent people and the other half angry /v/ermin wearing a /vr/ mask.
I never liked Sam either, but I don't mind if Doom 4 mimics painkiller a little bit if the mimic is done right.

/v/ermins are being quickly disposed off as of now. Janitors are on the rampage.

>You sure you're from the right general? Because last I checked /vr/ doom was one half decent people and the other half angry /v/ermin wearing a /vr/ mask.

Yeah, and I'm part of the decent folk. I like doom, doom modding, and doom 4.

Stoked as hell to do a tyson/pistol run, seeing as the pistol has infinite ammo.

seeing good fellows such as you give me hope in that the thread still has a blight of hope in becoming good again. sucks that at least 60% of the posting population there seems to want to discuss this game alongside the mods, but somehow we aren't allowed to so much as peek through the curtains or whatever we post gets pruned in a matter of seconds, meanwhile UT4/Doom 3/other modern games get to stay.

It's highly hypocritical of the janitor and the posters if you ask me.

>still eight hours to go until it unlocks at the earliest

fuck

14 hrs here, past midnight release feelsbadman

waiting for the code to get e-mailed. dude said it would be today.

Would using a VPN to access the game at it's earliest release be something that Valve would really look into or seriously try to ban me for?

Okay guys, listen up.

This might be the only chance the community will ever have to obtain a clean, high quality picture of the classic DOOM box art made by Don Ivan Punchatz.

If you live in Europe and you plan on getting the new game, please become a hero and order this bundle, and scan the DOOM poster in the highest quality possible.

game.co.uk/en/doom-uac-pack-bundle-only-at-game-1179240

If you're not getting the new game but you know of someone that will, let him know about this. Please spread the word as far as you can!

>I like doom 4

Yes. I like Doom 4, I like Doom 1, and Doom 2.

Doom 3 not so much but at least the chainsaw is rad.

Monitoring this thread. Need to make sure this thing won't run on my shitty computer before I settle for a console version.

It's like 55 gigs in size, just as a head's up

Yeah I'm looking at preloads now. Fuck.

I admire Doom 3 for what it tried to do; a genre switch from an eerie but frantic shooter to an outright FPS survival horror. But it feel like half way through developing it they just said "fuck it".
Also they gave us worse cyberdemon.

>one day before release

So any reviews or youtube leaks yet?
