And my project is very early on so very beginner work
Epilepsy
Heart issues [Tachycardia, low blood pressure constantly]
Hypermobility
Abnormally high testosterone
Uh.... the rest are caused by childhood trauma
Lung issues
Nerve damage
Depth perception begone
Ear damage
Liver damage
NOOOOOOOO
YOU ARE BEATING ME OUT
Dw it sucks to exist as this cesspit š
Frr my life
I understand Olivia. I understand why you made a deal w the devil bcs HOLY FUCK.
Trust me, my old projects are basically unreadable
Minty launcher is based and cool
I HAVE STILL MANY THINGS I HAVNT EVEN LISTED LOL
hell, most people are like that
so that's normal
"Oh it's slow"
> Arguably faster movement speed:
Well it's my first project so don't laugh and give me some time to make it look more organizated
I need that
Romerocord.
I sent you the DM request btw
Maybe I'll join it when I finally decide I'm okay to do so lol
Let me accept I have my discord notification off lol
You don't need to talk there š
the dark ages doesnt have ng+...
just turn every damage source to the max and every helpful thing to the lowest
plus game speed at max
Yeah. I donāt really see why it would need to. Thereās enough variation with the sliders.
And I doubt thereās enough RPG elements to warrant a NG+
The only thing I can think the game could do with that is changing up enemy spawns. Though maybe there will be something like Master Levels later on. I always liked how classic Doom threw a couple curveballs at the player on NM.
thats kind of what i was thinking
Perhaps in an update, if the game continues to be supported throughout the years. Would be cool. Itād also be a lot of work to update and balance new encounters. Practically remaking half the game right there.
This is like, a perverted twisted wish, but a whole master level campaign would go NUTS
With mod support that wish will likely come true in some way, lol
Eternalās modding scene is pretty wild, so Iād be curious to see what comes from TDA
Fr
I keep seeing reviewers claim they 100%ād the campaign within 20-25 hours. I imagine they mean getting every secret, instead of completing all achievements. Eternalās campaign takes about 12-15 hours to 100%. Iād expect TDA to be double that. Then again these reviewers probably rushed through the game on an easier difficulty.
what if you do this on your first run
there arent difficulty specific achievements iirc
then you'll die
Not even UN? Interesting
theyre kind of obsolete nowadays
i did see smth about a skin though for going all the way through UN
there is UN
Sweet 
yeah there are skins for that stuff
gold yes
but not achievements in steam
other than the obvious Gold skin from UN, are there any other skins we should know about?
yeah ik which is why im even more impressed. the way the level "changes" before your eyes is genuinely amazing and didnt even know its possible in gzdoom. its a programming marvel man its amazing what you did here. cant wait to see your next project man
doom never had an ultra nightmare trophy
Really? I couldāve sworn both 2016 and Eternal had an achievement for it. At the very least, Eternal does. Maybe Iām mistaken though?
Either way, Iām hoping the game is longer than 20 hours to 100%.
to 100% some estimate 30 hours or a lil less, depending on how fast you do collectables and such
Yeah Iād expect around 30
as someone who likes to do a casual playthrough first, imma be streaming for 2 days lol
ever since DOOM (2016) i've done my first play through on Hurt Me Plenty then moved up to Ultra Violence for my second playthrough
i have divinity, void, and nightmare. thereās a pandemonium one too
ok so no day 1 unlockable skins like in eternal.. interesting.. cause in eternal you could unlock "Sentinel" "Preator" and "Classic Marine"
Void is preorder
ahhh that yes
like just in general
i mean i suppose since there are so many preorder skins/bundle skins, it makes a little bit of sense there wouldn't be any day 1 unlockable skins.. and the fact there's no hub like in Eternal sooo yeah
nah in this game, were a weapon with a collar or whatever, so we have no free will until maybe the middle of the game or mid late game
no more hub in the dark ages?
i hope there isnt in eternal it was just like bruh let me play the game already
couldnt even do anything there besides look at your toys
no hub
i see stuff in chat and i want to say something, but that means id be giving spoilers
must resist
(but for real, no hub, hugo has confirmed it too)
Allstin when I get you.
just in general
Oh right I need to work in allstin fanart
there is no hub
i canāt draw, i have no art of myself.
except that time someone drew me stabbing a raw potato (i also took a bite out of it) due to the first time i ever played and streamed half life (only time)
i did stab it. and bite it. it was not tasty.
i put many forks and butter knives into it
Are they consistent across all weapons and the slayer, or is it like eternal where they don't have full sets
Well you're gonna get some bcs that's how I repay folk for shit
but iām getting off topic
good riddance
Dark Doom The Ages
weapons have ||gold skins for masteries, and some mission challenges||
hwat
just draw mr beast then say itās me
I-
DOOM: The Dad Ages, Every Year. Because he gets older
Dear god.
people all the time in my comments āhey mr beastā
does anyone know if there are skins/rewards for owning other doom games like how it was in Doom Eternal?
Ages The Dark Doom
Whoops. Made faraday from fo4 mb
ages the doom dark
i should collect comments i want to reply to, and then when spoiler time is up, and the games been cleared, be like SEEEEE
... allstin you're being furry-ifed now.
uh oh
i just wanna be ultra nightmareified
thatās gonna be a challenge for real.
i just realized all i did was flip the last 2 wordsš
due to the length and difficulty
Fuck you. Youre a otter now
it will be done for sure, people will
Thanks, but I'm more asking if you can collect a certain skin (like blue for example) for every weapon and have them all match (other than gold)
Like the ones you find in missions
from what i can recall itās ||basically gold iāve seen||
Ok thanks
2 days 21 hours 57 minutes
I wish dark ages had a sentinel training armor skin ngl
It was pretty cool
But the slayer wasnāt a sentinel, motherfucker brought a chainsaw
sure was, itās like one my favorite skins from eternal and when dark ages got announced I was hoping the outfit would return somehow
trueā¦.
The sentinel armor was cool but it wasnāt a good fit for the slayer IMO
I felt I could see his face too much
And one thing, is it just me or did the slayer seem scared in the 2nd trailer
So fucking weird to say but it seemed like it
thatās what I was thinking when I first saw trailer 2
gonna come home from a long hard day at school and have to wait another 5 hours to play
What day?
may 14
May 12th is early access right?
god the wait for this game is gonna fucking kill me
yeah
just asking cause I preorder the digital premium version
Alr sick
We need to wait man. Do NOT go on YouTube
YouTube feels like a warzone rn
Go pirate some game somewhere that isnāt doom cus pirating doom would be a terrible thing
Go replay the final mission of RDR2 20 times and cry like a bitch every time cus you know damn well you will
Wouldnt be so bad if you plan on buying it down the line
This place really aināt the best to discuss piracy
But I do know that the creator of ultrakill supports it
i mean, seems like he doesnt mind it as hes doing just fine with sales
Idk
But Yeah, its a subjective topic to discuss
But with the stuff they are saying about how we donāt own our games
If buying isnāt owning pirating isnāt stealing
i say both sides are right and wrong but youre entitled to choose the way you see it
and games will cost $100 in the future
nah bro we cant do anything about it
Yeah, thats expected down the line as much as i hate it
we are fucked
Purchasing games to support good developers i can get behind with
do not spoil the story
thereās #1369206341003903018
itās very tempting to try and see stuff early in a game
but just trust me on this one
Some OG doom fans are not the fan of the way doom is from eternal
canāt please everyone. i grew up on the classics and like them all. including doom 2 rpg. except i never played d3
youāll be weaving around like classic but also slaying like eternal
I saw the IGN review, Iām hoping I wasnāt spoiled too much
i can kind of see their perspective of certain enemy types that need certain gunplay to defeat them which can be annoying but i dont seem to mind it personally
I remember them describing the weapons but thatās about it
The amount of enemiesā¦
thereās no spirit-requirement type of enemy in TDA
Not much else I remember thank god
which even then. you could let those live
The old doom players are complaining about the shield parry being compared to a souls like game
Like every modern doom game has always been intended to switch up the pace
it works for TDA
Bro it does NOT function like a soulslike
itās meant to be different, as eternal is from classic
Iāve played so much god damn dark souls I would know
some people want every doom to be classic doom, and then hate on creators like that modern doom
or something.
Bro I think this, despite the new stuff, feels a lot like classic doom
and i can say that since i grew up as a kid on 90s doom, in the 90s. doom 95 source port too
Or at least feels like classic quake
You cant just have the same formula across all games
As much as i like classic doom, the switch up from each game is pretty nice
I donāt want an eternal 2, I want to fucking KILL SOMETHING
Not do goddamn acrobatics
Save for your own information
LFG
@silent surge btw is there a lost soul in the model viewer
Random question I know
And is there a toy for it
Marauders have entered the chat
KILL SOMETHING but smart
Also mod why were we not allowed to say Bethesda for a while
yo im wondering will doom the dark ages be on sale anytime soon?
It is, discounts from humble
Instant gaming
And some youtubers with codes
Misspelling I think gets blocked
Like beansprout
That's not my reasoning, my reasoning is that I just really don't like the focus on verticality and how it handles resource management
it just feels wayyyy too easy to get any resource I want
Locked in
Yessirš«”
are there skins/profile stuff in TDA for owning other doom games
like how Doom Eternal has one for owning Doom 64 and etc
What do you get?
Or is it spoilery
Set a reminder on my phone yayy
idk thats why im asking š š
Anyone know when premium edition owners will be able to preload on Xbox?
if there is i may not have it yet ?
hey Allstin
do you know if there are skins/profile stuff for owning other doom games?
like the Doom 64 profile stuff for Doom Eternal for example? or the Brown Doom Marine skin for owning Doom II?
Does somebody know if TDA got M&KB support for consoles?
Idk but I think Iād prefer controller
How come? I play in front of a monitor and would like the snappy reactions of a mouse, but if not then controller is all good as well
Three more grueling days
5 for us poors
If there was an actual premium upgrade on steam id get it
Bro vega fucking blocked a link to THIS server
I'm just saying, he looks fantastic. He looks so different from the dev direct
I posted in screenshots
Y'know I always felt that old lost soul was so clunky and stiff it's good they finalized it, cuz it looks pretty
I bought the standard edition and itās coming out on the 14th
i pre order it Premium edition i am soo hype
It says 15th for me
I use a tv, but also ps5 controllers are peak
i used xbox controller on pc
I much prefer controller for 90% of games tbh
Expecially shooters (which is sacrilegious i hear)
3 day left for me
is the "hurt me plenty" gonna be normal normal or is it harder like it was in eternal
š¤
I just got my shield saw pfp
doom slayer is here
I got the DA helmet, Collectors Edition, console wrap, 2 xbox controllers, dynamic background on xbox, dynamic discord pic, and now I am also getting the shirt they are selling.
I am prepared
dang you are doom fans
Here's to hoping it all slaps
soundtrack ?
yes they do look good
considering what Finishing Move has shown I think where in good hands
Yup
The soundtrack is available for pre download on Spotify so when it releases the songs will instantly go to my downloaded songs.
I got Spotify Premium
same here
Wait a minute Iāve been wanting to ask this for a while now so if you play the game on like nightmare difficulty, will you be able to like switch the enemies difficulty like for example letās say you get a reward for beating a certain level of nightmare difficulty. would you still be able to get it if you changed the settings of the enemy to make them less aggressive?
No like rewards
can you send me link in dm
When does it come out?
14th
Also, I saw something from the game, but I donāt know if I wanna say it because itās a spoiler
^^^
just pre-saved it
very exciting stuff
link dm
||I saw a golden super shotgun in the game and it looked peak||
DMed it to you
yup got it
Oh no the game's ruined
Darn
Yeah man, I just ruined the game for everyone
4 days it says
Can't have nuthin deez days
it be funny if we got Eternals armor as a skin like how we got the 2016 suit in Eternal
yeah yeah it doesn't make canonical sense but whatever
Im hoping the 2016 and Eternal suits are available
I want to do a playthrough with all of them
i feel like the Classic Marine armor is gonna come back
maybe the Doom 64 one as well
5 agonising days for me.
Do you think that theyāre gonna add? Cheats
10 am may 13 for people in the land down under
how do you get the doom discord thing?
lucky
hey thats me! im aus
My page says 15th of may even tho im in aus.
10 pm may 9th in california, we got quite the wait to go
On the announcement channel there's a link for the discord quest
thx!
My pc can barely run fortnite on the lowest settings with everything else closed, do you think Iāll be able to play the dark ages chat
Yep
Are you on RTX or not?
Not
Guys do we know anything about eastern Europe release times
What about through the cloud? That could be an option.
go check the announcements chat, they JUST posted location release times
Oh that could work
There aren't any about eastern Europe I think
I just have to find out how to get up there
At least on the map
Depends on your internet speed.
One sec
People can at least get an idea I suppose, look for the one closest to them and go from there
RIP AND WHATš£āļø
theres a global map, it should tell you.
Tear until it is done
UTC midnight I think
Parry?
itās the first map on the page
a 3070 should be ok for 60fps 1080 right?
May 15 also what is preloading
Tip and rear until it is come
I checked that one out first eastern Europe isn't mentioned
Installing the game before release so that youāre not installing on launch and can play immediately
i saw him...
Ok thanks
do we know how long preload is for stabdard edition
damn
We cannot escape him.
Doom The Parry Ages.
have the colecters bundle and the helmet comign in on monday
Ok so from tmrw midnight we can start preinstalling?
how dosnt in come oout on the 12th ?
Can anyone confirm install size?
156gb i belive
What??
Disgusting. Thanks
It's at most 100.
no its less then thasty
1382 zetabtes
its between 130 - 100
I might be spouting bs but I think when I checked on Xbox last night it said 77.5gb
Might be wrong
it says 100GB for me on an Xbox and PC
Ah ok
totally worth those gigs
I can already imagine re-installing it again after post-updates and dlc.
Why would you reinstall it
Are they gonna have physical discs?
yeah
Psure
but with no data in it
Other games down the track? That I need space for?
Ok ok
ok
Ok.
Catch me at GameStop on May 15. My first game bought on release.
k
.
..
To all those who havenāt played yet, Iām not going to spoil anything but it is definitely the best in the series⦠itās really that good
...
I got my hands on it today with the collectors edition and I have been playing it all day and Iām still not done
What makes it better do u think
I like blue.
Wait collectors gets it this early?
no, hes lying.
I hope the titan we fight in the trailer is the same one we pull the crucible from in Eternal
Ohh yes
Btw that massive shotgun we are gonna have piloting the atlan looks awesomee
Well itās very similar to the old school 90s games with a hint of the quake era and doom 3/64 bleakness but itās still very much an arcade shooter/bullet hell
I really like those types of games
From what I've seen it's pretty fast paced, contrary to what was shown in the trailer footage, and some parts of the movement is a lot faster than in Eternal.
stop pretending you have the game already lol
if people were getting it early, surely there would be people streaming or posting things on reddit/twitter
^
It is actually really fast but in a different way than eternal
.... I'm sorry to tell you. But folk have been.
Instead of dashing with the a button itās mainly with that shield bash, not to mention they throw like 30 enemies at you at a time and itās just you fighting them so the game really makes you feel like a one man army
I've seen the entire first cutscene before Tweaktown posted it. Albeit in Spanish.
The shield bash was made me think of it being faster in a way, it's night and day compared to travelling with a meathook.
You get a lot of distance with that shield bash too š
Really? are xbox/bethesda taking it down? ive seen absolutely nothing
Check your message requests if you donāt believe me.
I've seen a lot of things.
Hey, so i need a clarification and the internet isn't helping. I have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Do I get early access or not?
i dont think so
been saying dis forever
raw game speedā true game speed
No you get it on the 13 with all Xbox or pc players
those can be faked afaik, but i believe you ig
That's early access?
im just suprised that ive seen absolutely nothing leaked personally
and 0 streams on kick/twitch/yt
Check Reddit
Thatās where all the leaks go
It's good speed too, not way too fast or slow. I don't think I'll get tired of TDA in the same way as I do in Eternal. Can't sure for sure but that's how I feel atm.
I got a question regarding specs: I have a Intel i7-7700 @3.60GHz and a GeForce RTX 3060TI, with 16 gigs of RAM. Is this gonna be enough to run the game on medium at least?
I mean the box I got said do not open or view until May 13 so my guess is Iām not supposed to say anything but I never signed an nda or was spoken to about not saying anything so eh, I just wonāt say spoilers
Gotta go gym now, and cry while lifting weights
I did a another playthrough of 2016 and Eternal to get ready for Dark Ages currently at the final mission of AGP2 which I will do tomorrow and I will be appropriately ready
never got tired in eternal, so not really worried about it happening in TDA
I have no idea friend
medium? probably not. maybe with an upscaler
The cutscene for the beginning of the final mission of AGP2 gives me goosebumps every time
I mean Ray tracing is fixed to the game so that alone might mess you up
i havent seen that exact gpu benchmarked so i cant be certain
It was more like, yeah I'm done after a few levels and modded arena playthroughs. But the first 200hrs I couldn't get enough of it.
Isn't the "real" release date the 15th? Do I get access on the 13th with Game Pass?
its a 3060 ti. I bit of rt should be fine
My 5090 is so ready even though I had to buy the game anyways.
Fair enough then
I might run it on medium to be safe. I have a 3070, 16gb ram and an i5 12400
I know nothing about pc specs so Iām not a good person to ask that š
I got my 7900 xtx just in time. Cant wait to see this mf in ultra nightmare 1440 ultrawide..
I mean, I know for a fact I meet the minimum requirements since I was able to run Indiana Jones fine enough, I'm just wondering if my CPU will be able to do the deed
you mean you got tired of playing the game and needed a break, and not tired of the game? because that's what i assumed
@mental gateCant wait to see it in glorious 4k high fps with path tracing enabled.
path tracing is not coming at launch afaik
I think id was saying how id tech 4 was supposed to be a flawless engine for low-medium pcs and thats why they fixed ray tracing and dlss on the game is because they know how to implement it properly so it doesnāt make your computer explode
My old 3080 pc still runs Eternal at 4k no problem. Its so well optimized.
can we throw our theories on the plot of TDA here before it's released?
Yeah that's what I meant. Plus there were other games I wanted to have a go of.
i mean, a 3080 was a top of the line card when DE released
True
or did it come out after eternal? i cant remember. that time is such a blur bc of covid
I remember it being one of the first games I played on my new at the time Pc.
id tech 4? isnt tda on idtech8?
I think i remember it being pre mw2019 so I think it was before DE
you might be right, Iāll go fact check myself real quick
it was after
sept 17 2020
Youāre right on both fronts then, I stand corrected
just turned on warhammer boltgun for the first time and why does this game lowkey have the shield bash
Oh yeah the charge mechanic?
Nice, frame generation will be nice to have for tda
oh yeah
Do you think The Dark Ages is the Doom 3 of the modern Dooms in terms of how demanding the specs are?
At least you can play it through cloud gaming.
D3 got people upgrading their rigs back in the day.
you dont play these kinds of game via cloud
You... can, can't you? Aint that like. Nvidia's thing rn
Xbox too.
I⦠I guess??š
No no, they have a point
Oh I wanted to drop this little tidbit of information about the dark ages⦠it has a designated sprint button
Hi!
I have bought the collector's edition... why Steam says me that i can play the game since 15th may instead 13th?
I mean you can still shoot and everything while doing it, itās just weird because itās doom
going for premium edition
im gonna wait until a sale, its AU$120 for standard edition
really hate that new practice now if you buy the uber edtion you get to play it earlier but fuck it
Same for me, I think it's normal
I don't pre order games often so not sure
100 dollar for the premium edition here in norway @wide fiber
AU$170 for premium
australian prices are extreme
@wide fiber sorry it is 96,43 usd
@potent sonnet they came with ray tracing update to eternal
got myself a 4070 super its going to be fine
Anybody play the game with a 5 5500?
I wanna know how the game runs on there
My gpu is a 3060ti
ouch
The cpu is what Im worried about
I think I got the last 4090 for sale in Australia. Very happy with that
on recomended it say 3080
Recommended 1440p
Minimum is 1080p
The pc requirements are not the same resplution between minimum, recommended, etc.
Holy
Nvidia based
What does the quest give yall
what quest?
thjis
?
My son has an r5 5500 and a 3060ti I was kinda wondering the same thing
I heard it runs okay on 6 core cpus but I dont about the 5 5500, because it's l3 cache is low for pc standards
Letās wait a couple of days to see if the 8 core thing is a hard requirement, if not, great! If Yes, Iād reccomend selling his 5500 and buying a 5700x
In some games it doesnt greatly affect performance, in some it's the difference between playable and unplayable

Im still glad ID still gives a fuck about optimizing their games
ID always did, and tbf the requirements are pretty in line with eternals, if anything this time around they set the minimum for the GPU to be a whole 3 generations behind on the nvidia side, and for the cpu side a whole 4 generations
@native loom yeah they are one the few that does that
I remember getting like the spiderman remastered pc port and for the first like the first month or two, the game was not running well at all
machine games also with indina jones was also well optimized
As someone that loves small details and ray tracing, losing that much performance for ue5 is fucking stupid
Sm2 still runs like dog water. Insane cpu usage
they used the same engine on that game
Legit
Yeah ik they stopped giving a fuck, it isn't "utilizing modern pc hardware" it's bruteforcing
The silent hill remake for example, renders buildings that are literally obscured by fog, why? I have no idea
id tech engine is better then unreal engine 5
sadley they dont let other people use their engine
Unreal engine 5 has potential, but it's pretty much used as a crutch to get high graphical fidelity in games and without optimization most UE5 games run horribly
Iām okay with that, it makes them millions of dollars, and they deserve it, it takes years to develop an engine
Because despite the doom games being amazing, Iāll admit, sometimes the shadows and textures get really funky
For those who played it, how does it compare to eternal?
Id rather have funky shadows, than my pc becoming a barbeque grill
people paid them for letting them use it
Your pc should NOT be getting that hot, even at max load
Mine gets 75 degrees max on the cpu and 55 degrees max on the cpu
No Im exaggeration obviously
Exaggerating*
Ah
But newer gpus do actually get really hot, so much so that theh sometimes melt their own wires
@native loom last time you cleaned you pc;)
I think around december, I tend to clean it every 3-6 months
I havent really used my pc this month so Im probably going to dust it soon
what are using discord one than?
My phone
The dank ages are upon us
I never knew the dark ages existed till last week tbh
hehe what?
Hey guys, do you think I can run Doom Dark Ages with i5 10600k 3070ti and 32gb ram on 1080p?
Iām worried about the ray tracing
i have those specs too lol
i got my standard edition copy guys š
will check later if dlc worth it or not, for cosmetics don't care really it's fps
i dont think people will call tda slow ever again
I'll reduce all slider to minimum, i don't like fast paced combat
wot
no i know but eternal was super fast
i can get superfast again with tda
Welp, best of luck in the next 5 years
š«”
Pandemonium difficulty is just extra lives mode???
Do weapons have primary and secondary fire???
Just realised that could totally be missing
I really thought it was going to be all sliders turned to max
Me too
So glad i future proof my pc
This games benchmarks are shocking
what's your specs?
Some reviews have had different results for performance overall. Some have experienced crashes or others it ran without issues.
current build
4070S paired with R7 7800x3d
32gb ddr5 6000mhz
Previous build
2060 paired with r7 2700x
16gb ddr4 3000mhz
You might get lucky and it'll run well enough on first day.
how would i get the game exaclty to download . since i got the collectors bundle . does it come with a code in the package or will they send a email with the code. i got it for pc
rtx geforce 4090
Pc or console?
pc
is that what you got?
yeah
Pc comes with a code
and where do i download it in
steam
my build is 4k but want to get it to 8k
Eternal ce made you download it from the awful bethesda launcher
canāt wait for monday man
yee
Has anyone played max diff?
max diff?
full slider
Wait when is it coming out I forgot
yeah
not nm
monday
niiice nice nice nice
i have completed etenral on ultra nightmare
tda
How much will it cost
then i got a tatto of it
depends on the version
doom the dark ages
If anyone played tda as max slider, please give me a review.
i will once it comes out
enemy damage goes up to 500% btw
idk but un skin looks awful
Normal NM is too easy.
like always
Just saw the last two trailers and I'm amazed.
Do some of you know what will be the price around?
70usd
Quick question does anyone know what video I'm supposed to watch for the quest?
Mrbeast squid game
The discord quest is on the announcements channel
Apparently the physical copy doesnt have the game on disc completely negating the point of a physical copy im so mad rn
I saw it but it doesn't give me or show me what video it is
Ok, thanks.
I will definitely consider it... The issue is that I still have to buy the ps5 and I am already willing to buy GTA VI.
(I know I'm into a bunch of very different games) š
gaming is dead
i hate how games are moving towards that, theres no point of owning a disc anymore
There's no way š
I live in rural australia my internet is ass it'll take 2 days to download
Fr...
Digital on PC is one thing but physical ownership for console is not fair
thats honestly the only good thing about console gaming lol
living in post apocalypse
insert game disc into ps5
it doesn't play the game
And now its gone
Mind if I dm you about the quest?
Australia is in my "places I'd like to build a career in" list btw.
(It's not because of the higher paychecks... I'm actually into agriculture sector which is very advanced there)
Mandatory ray tracing is actually insane
They use it for more than lighting btw
yet perfomance took a dive
Idrk why
iirc FF7 Rebirth got a mod to remove the ray tracing so people could play it on older cards. Who knows? Maybe TDA will get the same treatment.
Iām going schizo. Iām seeing doom slayer in my room.
would need the source code in this case
If you figure it out please tell me how bc it doesn't work for me either lol
removing rt would make it impossible to damage anything, if the game even starts up in that state
If that's the case then my friends fucked, he has a GTX card. He said he would try running it on the server.
If this was true Epic games and Activision would be bankrupt
I'll always be proud of my Warcraft 3 Battlechest.
Yeah it's annoying to say the least
the game isn't even out yet š„
but they have released some benchmarksš„
They added lots of assets to this game so i expect the performance to be as it is
oh no my 2025 game needs atleast an 8 years old card womp womp
ok asshole
This
5 year old card

I have faith in my 3070.
it will run
PC part picker goes hard
idk even āhigh-endā cards perfomance is awful š¤·
Cant wait to hear coil whine on another intensive game
Will it be able to shield bash too?
Clean 60fps on series X
maybe even parry
Was planning to upgrade to a 5080 but it cant even run the game at 60 fps on 4k with dlss
Wish it was higher but shi Iāll take it
DO NOT
Well if it could play now instead of waiting five more days that would be awesome.
THAT SHIT IS A SCAM
console upscaling slop
yes
noted
upscaling should have remained as a console exclusive thing
if you want to get a 5080 just get a 4090 basically
complains about needing a higher end card
calls the affordable option slop
Man stfu
Pick a struggle
both consoles and pc are fucked so it doesnt matter at all
Physical copy doesnt even have any data on the disc
Just wait till the 60 cards drop, theyll rely on ai š
ai frames gen slop
Coming from the guy that said āgaming is deadā you are actually just full of shit
Wanna know why?
i hate using frame gen unless i have low latency on which helps alot
People like you are the reason why games are going to cost $100 in the future
they already do
base game not premium edition or whatever
gta 6 is gonna cost 100 BASE
That aināt my fault lmao
If you already got a 4080, no need to go 5080
Now, a 24 gb 5080 would absolutely be worth it
But thatās not out yet
May 26 2026 is when we see that
I recommend consulting Dr Google for actual information on the game because series X runs it clean
Its funny how in the benchmark I saw the rtx 5080 performed worse than the 4080
Yep, becuase the 50 series has less mature and more fucky drivers than Ada Lovelace
Im planning to buy that one
Good choice, especially for 4k.
I own a 4080, got tired of playing all my games at 60 fps 4k. Downgraded to 1440p and I get like 160 fps in almost every game
Everythings getting big now, everything real big.
Just like those doritos
Sounds like something Morty would say
do yall think my GTX 1660 Super will pull through? š„²
No
That's just the small packet.
l o l
I was thinking of the Real Big song.
Ohhh
question
if I were to start my pc build, should I go for a 4080 or a 4090?
Cards real big, ram real big.
4080 will do just fine
4090 will always be a LOT better but 4080 is more affordable
If ur rich u can go 4090 xd
ahhhh
I mean like, 40% better
noted
If you are going for a series 50 card go for the rtx 5070 ti
yh, i did
The 16 gb model specifically
how many gb is in it?
My friend has the same card, he's gonna try playing it on the server using game pass.
i did upgrade to a 5070 ti, happy with it
Does this game confirm that it wont have vulkan running and only Open GL
5070 ti
rn 12 gb, which is solid for 1080p
Canāt wait for the 16GB model
i have already bought the premium version on steam, will try playing it as well. if i cant run it, bad for me, i was planning buying a better pc in late december
Well you have the game atleast, won't be going anywhere.
5070 ti is 16 gb
true, but ill be angry asf if i cant play it, been hyped since the first trailer
GTX 1660 Super
geforce now moment
bruh
u wont even be able to open the game
You need a card with ray tracing.
i guess that is it guys
dont have the money rn, will in december
you* not me
honestly this is kinda depressing
How good is your internet?
shitty asf too
Welp
like 20 Mbs
I think man is cooked
I haven't played on a server before. Anyone know the minimum requirements for mbs?
U gotta have very stable Internet first
AMD GPU for the Win
Otherwise its gonna be a stutterfest
It might Pepiks best immediate option if he can source a good connection. Other than that, idk.
Yh
His speeds aren't great either, but he kinda needs to have a very stable connection
I remember playing for a few hrs on it a while ago, wasnt great on my old internet
Was actually unplayable
Do we know why i7 10th is necessary
its not specifically that one, they just give an example
That reminds me, will i5 12400 Processor 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-12400, 2500 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s) work for TDA?
Would you be able to run 1080p 60 fps on very high settings with a 4060 Ti 16 GB
i7 10th is required for 60 fps 1080p
Eh, could be playable
hey, I got on discord today to do the dark ages quest and it says I'm ineligble. is there a reason why?
(is there any known info on why this could be, np if not)
its 18+ afaik
I see. I'm not looking to max all the settings, even just a stable frame rate is enough for me.
that could be why i suppose
oh lol then idk
Cringe, RDNA 3 is a suicidal architecture
i7 10th Gen is necessary for 60 fps 1080p on low settings
might be it tho
btw in dark ages are there any marauders
Not as we know em
I donāt think so
would be annoying if it is tho. I can access 18+ channels so idky discord would see me as inelgible
i mean u said ur 19, thats not the reason UR ineligible
Steamhappy emoji
oh
(Do you mean TDA or DE)
Worst case scenario I'll just upgrade, that'll be the end of it.
Steamhappy emoji
Sad : the dim times
keep in mind u dont need that much better cpu to play at max compared to low.
True, at low your cpu makes more draw calls per core, meaning youāll have more cpu usage at lower settings and lower resolution
If you didnāt already know, thereās a lot more to it when changing CPUs than just getting a new one and putting it in
Ok, so what else would I have to do?
So on low settings the CPU is doing the big stuff but on higher settings the heavy lifting is on the GPU?
New motherboard and RAM
Yeah
Cool
Your cpu sees more usage on lower settings and lower resolution
Dang.
Thatās why all the csgo players (they play on 1080p low settings) use a 7800x3d or a 9800x3D despite using like 4070ās or something
Youāll need a motherboard with an LGA 1700 socket
getting 60fps on a game that looks next gen is a blessing
Well
It is next gen DOOM after all
To clarify, this is just for 60fps 1080p? How about on lower resolutions and fps?
I run 1440p, hopefully with DLSS balanced I get like 180 fps max settings
Id software usually optimize their games well and i believe they did their best with their upgraded engine
Idk, letās wait for the benchmarks
I really dont want to upgrade unless I have no choice whatsoever.
What are your current specs
We have all the requirements for minimum recommended and ultra performance
Some people will have to spend thousands of their own currency just to run it cough cough me cough cough
Can I ask a question here regarding the early release of DOOM The Dark Ages?
Oh yeah
āGuys get a 7900xtx itās so goodā yeah just wait till your mosfets fry and then you gotta spend nvidia level money on another AMD GPU
i5 12400, rtx 3070, 16gb physical ram
Yas
If you overclock it slightly you should be able to cover the cpu mark
Dawg Iāve had that GPU since it dropped and still have no issues
dont ask to ask, just ask!
Iāve opened and repaired GPUs lmao. On a larger scale itās a bitch to take care of, consider yourself lucky
Itās called ātake better care of your shitā lmao
Even tho i upgraded last year, im scared and excited to see this game run
I will make it work, even if it kills me.
It runs pretty great on the series X so you should be ok
Nah, itās like the Intel issue, the architecture itself was frying it. The interconnects on RDNA 3 draw too much voltage for the VRMS, which is why youāll see em fucking STACKED on any pcb on those cards. But despite that youāll see burnt traces, messy oscillators and overall just worn down vrms. Thereās a REASON AMD abandoned chiplet for RDNA 4
Your aight
Dont do that, don't give me hope.
Your first mistake was intel
Performs better than most AMD CPUs, Iām alright
at the moment i dont have the specs yet im currently at rtx 2060 and i7 9700 cpu. but im getting a stronger one around my birthday this month
Itās no 7800x3D or 9800x3D but it costed me half the price and I get hardware encoding
Bait or mentally challenged
Call it
Good good, your gonna need a better system
Intel works fine with me
Itās called working in repair shops and not being a techtuber shrill lmao. Nobody worthwhile gets their news from ztt or discord
I despise intel so much
intel is perfectly fine for me as well lmao
Good CPU, I like
shilling on amd are we
āI hate Intel I love AMDā
āWhy?ā
āEh uhm um um gamers nexus said soā
No I just prefer them
I love discord r tards
At this rate I'll be lucky if I can even run GTA VI.
Chat. Chat I need to remind you all that most folk aren't gonna see or understand the difference between CPUs
yikes.
AMD CPUs are really good, their GPUs for RDNA 3 are poopy tho
Little bitch say the word.
Don't be a little bitch and actually say it.
Canāt itās blocked lmao
Yeahhhh you seem like the type. Go back to your cope chamber with your 7900xtx
ik theyre good but bro is just shitting on intel just cuz he wants to
I had a look at the global release times picture, I'm situated in South Africa, there's release dates or time for any of the African countries, I have have pre-ordereed the premium edition of the game, does this mean I won't be getting early access to the game?
Yeah and? Do it.
thats the real Can you run crysis?
Becuase heās an idiot that doesnāt understand the first thing about chip design or architecture
Cope chamber, they should make a game out of that.
I have a screenshot telling me I canāt : (
I still can't run crysis.
They already did, itās called discord
<t:1747094400:f>
you will
If I didn't realize that till now, then I haven't been coping enough.
whatever that time says above yh
Oh oh I can!
Still a dogshit game tho
Oh boo fucking hoo. Why don't you get your ass out of here and stop using slurs.
srsly
You have to go to the tech discord servers, theyāre all copers there. Both for Intel and AMD. They hate the alternative because itās not what they bought
Consumer bias
Or, take better care of your shit? Type shi
omg ur annoying
What about the GTX community now?
holy shit xd
Nobodyās throwing their 7900xtxās at a wall, what do you even mean by that lmao
Thank you
Itās literally an architectural flaw, that AMD abandoned, despite all the marketing
It gets very P word between Amd and intel fanboys
I donāt really like my GPU
Thank you
Thereās a REASON Chiplets on a GPU are the dumbest idea ever
I donāt care lmao
okei
Why no like?
Anyways enjoy dark ages
Hmm?
Ohhhh <@&162901871168585728> 
lol no need
Enjoy yourself, make sure to change your VRMS to MLCCās while your at it, those shitass polycaps arenāt doing you much good
Mm. No I'd say it's reasonable for them to be here rn
Yap
Mmmm maybe
Loved having powers for like 3 seconds.
Well I mean it works but yknow I canāt play any raytracing required games and the games I can play have their recommended specs page with a n RTX card
Just saying that amd and intel has its goods and faults, just as every company does
Well, god forbid you tell that to any of these kinds of tech kiddies
The tech discord servers must have comments like this. Thanks for the demonstration. Hope you get a card you're content with.
idk which to pick from
intel or amd
AMDās new CPUs are really good, and the day they introduce hardware encoding Iāll switch over from Intel (as long as Intel doesnāt match the performance)
Right now for top tier gaming the option should be AMD in my opinion
Depends if youre aiming for gaming, productivity or both
Now if itās for blender or adobe or whatnot, yeah Intel is a good contender
Iāve always used Intel so Ima stick with it
Thatās cool
If I can run Blender, surely I can run GTA VI.
i never had intel on my gaming build before, i only use it for my laptop for work
Dawg my shit laptop can run blender
uhhh iād say both?
ive always used intel, never had any issues, happy with it
Same
Although
Alguien a tiene reservado el doom?
Im just trying to make myself feel better.
Is i5-10400F a shitty CPU
should I use intel if I wanna be productive and game aswell?
No not really
i mean, u get what u pay for
Yeah Iād say so
actually on that cpu specifically ik u get more than what u pay for
Iām swapping it out for i7-12700k anyway, had it for 5 years
Turn on cycles rendering engine 
I just wanna have better specs than the minimum for TDA
no I like not burning myself
You gotta
But what if Laptop cycles itself?
What
š
Run TDA and cycles in Blender.
game is already online watch out for spoilers !
Gpu explosion
My laptop heats itself up from starting. It's a shit laptop. Old too
Good for warming up for winter at least.
I just bought the premium version of the game im hyped
when will the OST be available?
afaik 99% of laptops burn like a mf
I'm Australian. We don't suffer in winter.
i have one as well for travel
What state?
It's so ass š
The shithole NSW 
Im in Newey
EUGH
You suffer at summer
can confirm
I suffer all year round
24/7/31/365
What state are you in?
Nsw.
EUGH
Born in Canberra.
I only remember Questicon
At least I wasn't born in fucking Queensland
I love questicon.
I wasnāt born in Stockholm
Went there as a kid, left knowing nothing. I still know nothing lol
my shit laptop runs eternal kinda well
I used to go every year. My sister was a pensioner so train tickets didn't cost too much
imma put it in the slammo and force it to run dark ages
Putting where you live on a public discord is wild š
Don't you get a few free rides a year with it?
Mhm
Nsw is the size or Texas. Good luck finding me.
What they gunna do? Pull up?
Have a mate in broken hills, was thinking of doing a trip using it.
Pretty strong aborigninal community over in broken is what I've heard.
Mhm. My mum is aboriginal, but we aint from that area. Im more southern
shitting my pants rn, discords knocking.

Don't really know my mums background, she was adopted, dads european (irish). Theres some aboriginal dna but not much. There's also russian jewish.
They're even making the notification sound effect.
I'm just pasty cuz my dad was a white fuck. My mum was either a victim in the stolen generation, or her father was.
Speak for yourself the build quality here is dog shit, no insulation Iām frozen
I got enough chub so I'm uncomfortably warm all the time.
I'm just white, despite the mixture of dna.
Ah. Yk the stuff that happened to native Americans? Same sorta shit. Genocide.
Cept here in Australia
And much more recent iirc
This is related to dark ages? š
Australian thing where native aboriginal peoples were forcibly taken from their families to be ācivilisedā by white Australians
Then there was the apology speech.
Benchmarks are looking rough, good thing I upgraded from rtx3080 to 5080
Happened 30ish years after hundreds of aboriginals were killed, assaulted and traumatised. It's such bullshit.
Yeah what the actual fuck are they yapping about 
... the genocide of native Australians.
Anyway as serious as a topic as this is and deserves certainly a respectful discussion I ask you kindly to move on
Sorry, got carried away and wanted to socialise.
#general be my guest
This is relevant in this channel why?
It was the topic of the chat. I have personal experience in it.
Yeah lets
Yes anyways. I'd happily lay on the chonkyr's lap like a cat or smthn
Yeah anyways, benchmarks looking rough
I'll rest easy once I finally play it.
Yep, my pc will be the perfect room heater running it
Yeah it's definitely better than Indiana Jones but I'd also say that higher fps is way more important for a game like Doom. I hope driver updates will increase the peformance a bit
MG do use a different type of idtech I canāt remember itās like āmotorā something
Now that I think about it, I don't think the IGN review mentioned performance at all
Iāll be playing on series X. DF said itās 60fps buttery
I don't. Don't think that's a good idea lowkey
Rt is used for targeting in TDA I thought. But reflections might not be necessary idk
