DOOM General
Everyone loves this game
I know i do
Multiplayer doesn't need to exist though
Just beat nightmare with no upgrades, but don't want to play ultra nightmare. Might go through again on nightmare do a collection run :)
Veeky ForumsDOOM's Discord chatroom:
Even those fucks at redlettermedia like it.
What is this green thing?
Okay theory time:
So basically after Doomguy shitstomps Hell through D1 thru Final (as referenced in the D4 story), he stays there, befriends the Knights, and is later ambushed and entombed until the UAC reattempts the hell portal with a more focused goal and discovers him again in D4.
Where does Doom 3 fit in the storyline? As far as I see it, it could only have occurred after or during the events of Doom 1 and 2. With data travel times, it's conceivable the Doom 3 Marine would never have known of the demon invasion of Earth during the time the game takes place, but it makes sense that the biological experiments the UAC was performing on demons would go awry at around the same time. I noticed D3 and 4 make little or no reference to Mars' moons, one of which should be missing.
probably a BFG cell
What is this green thing?
BFG ammo
oh ok thanks
I literally didn't realize that until after I beat the game once.
you might be a dumb
they started appearing literally two rooms after you got the BFG, come on
I never used the bfg though.
I'd whip it out on bosses and after seeing it barely did damage to them I'd put it away.
it oneshots common enemies without even hitting them
it's just that nu-id wanted to avoid the "spiderdemon oneshot" of the original dooms, I think
I played through the game without knowing either. No need to be mean, doomfriend :)
nah, it's a pretty basic connection between "just got bfg" and "suddenly big green things show up"
The guy who put this together last thread suggested he was making variants, could he make one with the logo text from Doom 3? I think it really fits the aesthetics of Doom 4
I want one where the DOOM logo doesn't have that stupid watermark that the classic one has
Give me a second, I'll post a fixed version
from the last thread before it died
>quick non-d44m question
>is doom 3 bfg as bad as people say it is compared to the original? all I hear is that it just adds extra ammo and kinda messes up the lighting (and that can be reversed via tweaking). which version do I go with?
I don't want to remember Doom 3 demons.
hopefully whoever made that picture will see this, because what he made is incredibly good.
I still think it looks better then the d44m cyberdemon, though I like the new moves the cyberdemon gets and it does have a better fight, the d33m cyberdemon had a better look but a total nonfight
>I still think it looks better then the d44m cyberdemon
What.
Beta gave about 15-30 fps. Final game has the same optimisation?
The latest cyberdemon is too humanoid, I like the more beast like look of the 3 cyberdemon
Yeah, that's one of my biggest complaints about DOOM 3. All the enemies just looked like B-rated movie monsters.
The DOOM 3 cyberdemon literally looks like the downs brother of the current one.
Did you look at the doom 3 cyberdemon? it looks like a mutant
The Doom 4 cyberdemon actually looks like a demon
Gold joke.
Isn't it the other way around? 4 was an actual redesign, while 3 was just.. fuck I don't know what that hunchback fuck is.
I like that the cyberdemon's chest kind of mirror's doomguys armor
I know. That's what I said in that post, ya git.
That was meant for
My bad
>still not in snapmap
Goddamnit.
Until then, we always have the one funko figure that doesn't suck.
Suck my dick.
Wasn't the preator suit made by whoever makes the armor in hell? or did i misunderstand the game?
Why are you so angry, user? I think the little guy is cute.
I don't think that's a watermark, I think it's an artifact from bad scanning.
I dislike both, but I feel they could be combined into something really neat
...
I liked some of them, the Ticks and Trites were kind of cool, the Hell Knight, is cool, quite frankly, and I'm glad Doom 4 actually has both the Doom 3 style Hell Knight, with a more classic looking Baron, it's a very good compromise IMO.
The Guardian was cool, and the Vagary
The agitating skeletons were done perfectly.
The only thing is they weren't threatening enough.
I'd have loved for the Guardian and melodic to have become regulars, he'll the vagaries too would have been good monsters
here
fuck you guys I'm going with BFG
>Give game to brother-in-law
>He spends the first 2 chapters only using the pistol and kept using charged shots.
>Doesn't understand what the glory kills did.
I love the man, but goddamn.
Does your brother work for polygon?
>let gf play game
>she's on the first level where you stand on a cliff then jump down to fight imps, possessed, and possessed soldiers
>she's shooting them from afar with the pistol and shotgun
Fuck sake babe.
>these people get paid to "review" videogames
>is doom 3 bfg as bad as people say it is compared to the original?
Not really. The game is mostly the same with the changes.
>all I hear is that it just adds extra ammo and kinda messes up the lighting (and that can be reversed via tweaking)
I didn't notice the extra ammo, but the lightning was replaced with the one from id tech 5. The game is still dark, but some areas and corners are brighter because of it.
Other than that, they removed the flashlight entirely and gave you one that's attached to the armor instead. This makes the gameplay similar to the original with duct tape mod. You can also turn it on or off if you want.
The bfg edition also doesn't support modding afaik.
The game also a short new campaign which mostly focuses on combat. It's levels are made up of more or less rehashed parts of some of the levels from the original and ROE. But they can stand on it's own in the end. They're also the least dark levels in the game. This campaign also has a simple story that ties it to the original game, but it's just a few lines of dialogue and a few cutscenes.
>which version do I go with?
It really depends on the price and what your preferences are.
If you don't mind having 0 mod support, the small changes and want to get the full package, get the bfg edition. Just wait for a sale, if you do that though. Normally, it costs twice as much as DOOM 3 + ROE.
If you would like to get the original experience and play/make some mods, get the DOOM 3 bundle.
Enjoy the best version.

I just beat the wave in the "shut down the portal" mission , the circle room with the yellow staircase going down...
there is a secret doll on the left upper side of the circle room but cant find a way to get it
any hints?
Not DOOM, but relevant.
If you couldn't tell, the monotone preachy guy is the Polygon reviewer.
The other video clips are from a random LPer.
You're all shitlords and you don't have to be good at video games to play them

oh god the stereotypical "I must make every video game a political commentary" voice is accurate
He was literally triggered and horrified by a VR gun simulation game that most normal human beings would find entertaining and fun.
He then uses this triggering as a scapegoat for why the game is awful, scary, and oppressive, and ultimately, not good.
Jesus fucking Christ.
So what's the multiplayer like now people have had some time with it?
>DOOOOOOOOODGE!!!!!
do they not have basic motor control? are they trying to play with one hand and what do they have against dodging?
So who are the guys with swords in the yellow/gold picture of doom guy fighting the demons?
Anything metal on the Doom 4 Cyberdemon (and also the Revenant and Cyber-Mancubus) was built and grafted on, by UAC, to a captured demon.
One of the codexes on the Cyberdemon describes the process, but none of the codexes describe why the thrice-damned fuck anyone thought it was a good idea.
yes it was
I like it. It's a fast paced small mapped arena shooter with a loadout.
90% of the reason people dislike it is because of the loadout
Weaponizing demons for a better tomorrow
Olivia was the one in charge of it, she thought it was a good idea because she was actively setting this crap up for hell to make use of
How long do the rounds usually last? I was thinking of giving it a shot while I had some time. And I'm sure being full of beer will only improve my gameplay.
10 minute time limits, I've never had a match time out
>motherfucking Olivia
That makes complete sense if it was all done in her division. That fucking bitch was crazy
I loved Haydens chuckle when he realized that Doomguy had to fight it.
She just got her employees to perform ritual sacrifices like it was no big deal
~8 minutes in team deathmatch and about two minutes between rounds
He's just so hardcore of a DOOM player he refuses to use the vertical axis.
You're looking for a fight though, you'll be fine.
SCIENCE!!!
She seduced them with her 600 year old pussy.
What was Olivia getting for helping hell?
Also who is yelling at her for Sam bringing doom guy back? He's the same one who commands the demons to stop you. Is that stan himself?
I thought hell was just a different dimension and not actually hell. if that's really the case why do the ritualistic rituals and stuff work?
Hell promised to make her a God, and the demon yelling at Hayden is the main Lord of Hell, like the Cyberdemon but more powerful.
Has the lord of hell been in any other games?
There are implications of its existence, but D44M is the first game that explicitly talks about him.
I thought the Cyberdemon was just part of an ancient race of really powerful demons, Baalgar.
Icon of Sin is the closest I think of to a de facto leader. The guy in the Doom 3 expansion, like Olivia, was just a transformation.
One of the codex's called the Cyberdemon a dead "Lord of Hell", maybe those are the Ballgar's in this game.
Rich can't aim for shit though. Adds some to his argument about fast aiming.
>Ballgar
How big are we talking?
>those fucks
What's wrong with them?
Come on, aren't you familiar with that type of humor?
why is aidsmoby allowed to live?
He's perfectly fine, leave the man alone.
FUCK aidsmoby
What do I do to the final boss? She's just sitting there not attacking?
...
I'm all out of ammo and only have the pistol
Then you know what to do.
Is she glowing blue, user?
from the bottom yeah
Come on now.
Go up there and glory kill it then.
what?
How did you get to final boss without knowing what to do with things that glow blue?
Glory kill the boss by going up to it and preforming a melee attack.
