the-dark-ages

[modern wind]

do we have any patches incoming for the stutters and the crashes that happen every five minutes???? jesus it is frustrating.... played quite a few maps with no issues then bam... get to hell and the game literally goes to hell

[timid dagger]

Where is multiplayer

[raw galleon]

noticed that mission progress saves every time you die, so you can just grind most missions by getting stuck constantly lol

[stoic sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/smooth-move-cow-gif-16191603673901327691

[raw galleon]

checkpoints in this game are weird, seen a lot of times ill die in a fight and the enemies wont respawn so i just miss out on the fight

mostly when something spawns after picking up an item

[stoic sleet]

U can also abuse the demonic essence demons

They stay in stun forever once u get their hp to 0

[raw galleon]

lmao

[stoic sleet]

And damage they take at 0 health still counts as damage

[raw galleon]

some weird oversights in the game for sure, adjustable sliders on ultra nightmare as well

[stoic sleet]

Thats how i got the first plasma mastery

[raw galleon]

lol, yeah i never saw stuff like this in eternal, but early days for this

i didnt play that at launch anyways i think

[hollow sandal]

It's so unfortunate

[raw galleon]

outside of weird quirks ive only gotten 1 crash so far

[hollow sandal]

Shredder also sadly is never used for me, very sad

[raw galleon]

fucked up how i have to play on low on a 2080 ti lol

[stoic sleet]

Imagine UN, smallest parry window, highest enemy damage intake, lowest enemy damagee output, max game speed, max aggresiveness and all of that tho

[raw galleon]

at least it looks nice

[hollow sandal]

But we got 11 weapons here, so it's crazy to use all 11

[raw galleon]

yeah i think the challenge run / speedrun stuff for this game could get pretty interesting

[stoic sleet]

How would custom speedrun difficulties work?

[raw galleon]

yeah i guess the community has to decide on a category

[velvet elbow]

Somehow I really do tho

[delicate grotto]

Only one I wouldn’t like there is making the enemies bullet spongey.

[stoic sleet]

There would be like 9,893,109,572,231,055 different difficultly slicer comboes or smth

[raw galleon]

guess that might be kinda hard though as i imagine max sliders is gonna be pretty insane when the game is this new

[stoic sleet]

Its meant to be torture

[raw galleon]

too much choice 😄 sliders are cool but i think there would be less people complaining if nightmare was a bit harder by default

having to balance the game yourself feels kinda shitty, thankfully im not good enough to where i have to mess with game speed and stuff

[sage canopy]

Hey guys! I just started to play on PC (game pass) but all my saves disappeared. I couldn't find a solution how to fix this.

[tranquil zodiac]

i think the game is a little too long for its own good. I think it shouldve ended at like 17-19 chapters. The combat is not varied enough to warrant 22. I'm on level 22 right now and im just skimming through it, not even trying to get every secret anymore.

Gold, rubies and the pink stuff stopped being useful to me by level 12 since i already bought everything i wanted to use for the rest of the game by then.

[stoic sleet]

Imagine a tas doing the most difficult possible difficulty setup only allowed to use un upgraded shield and un upgraded combat shotgun

[stoic sleet]

Damageless and only allowed to melee for ammo

[raw galleon]

smallest number of kills speedrun

theres gotta be some way to skip half the fights

[stoic sleet]

I dont mind the length

[zealous hamlet]

Check that OneDrive didn't move your saves to the cloud automatically without asking

[stoic sleet]

I enjoyed every combat encounter in this game

[raw galleon]

i got the classic situation of fodder getting stuck in a wall so the fight wouldnt finish

thankfully shooting my BFC into the wall seemed to fix it

[fossil badger]

you don't have to play nonstop you know, you are getting tired because you're forcing it

[stoic sleet]

And the first 2 levels are actually good when replaying, unlike eternal

I fucking hate hell on earth and exultia

[sage canopy]

even If I don't have OneDrive installed?

[timid dagger]

The game is too short I wanted more

[tranquil zodiac]

i'm not. I didn't even touch the game on sunday and only played it very late on saturday.

[raw galleon]

replayability is gonna be kinda cool though, you can gradually increase the sliders each playthrough as you get better

[zealous hamlet]

I've had it reinstall itself after a Windows update

[timid dagger]

We need a doom style rogue like

[raw galleon]

although idk if it has a proper new game plus sort of thing, idk if i can be fucked to collect things again

[sage canopy]

hm..I had a windows update too

[raw galleon]

guess you can just do mission select

[timid dagger]

Where you can infinitely replay

[stoic sleet]

I didnt even die on them theyre just time consuming and is downtime getting back to cultist base on UN

[zealous hamlet]

Game length would be perfectly fine if there weren't points of no return for collectibles, and no padded "backtracking" with keys. Shit was so annoying to try and figure out how to get back to previous areas.

[raw galleon]

would be cool if it kept track of the highest difficulty / sliders you completed each mission with

yeah i cant believe they got rid of fast travel

[zealous hamlet]

Now I need to back for some random crap, when I'd much rather my 2nd full playthrough were a speedrun.

[hollow sandal]

Nah word, respect

[velvet elbow]

I think it’s leftover instinct from eternal, but I do like a variety, I use certain guns for certain enemies and circumstances

[tranquil zodiac]

imo if there was a way to skip collectibles after you beat the game, replayability would be perfect

i had the same problem with eternal. If it weren't for collectibles, i'd replay eternal 10 times a week

[delicate grotto]

You can skip them with a well timed weapon swap but I get what you mean.

[zealous hamlet]

If I could go back to levels completely cleared just to get collectibles, that'd be fine. I'd just much rather collecting not get in the way of killing stuff fast.

[uneven steppe]

One of my missions is glitched when I check the details it says there are three challenges but when I go into the mission it doesn't show up so I can't 100% the mission

It's in mission 17 the Take all comers challenge

[tranquil zodiac]

i think to win in default nightmare, all you have to do is kill fast enough that you'll outheal all the damage you take, while still parrying/dodging what you can ofc. It feels like cheating the combat imo and i dont like that you can play this imperfectly to beat nightmare

[amber wren]

it was the same in eternal

the pickups in tda are more anemic than eternal too

[tranquil zodiac]

i hate the vagary's bs poison clouds bruh

did they really need to slow you down

[inner wigeon]

If they don’t have that they would be free

[amber wren]

ya that killed me a few time

[inner wigeon]

They have that, free parry #1 and free parry #2

[amber wren]

took me a while to figure out what was up

[inner wigeon]

Though admittedly yes it is a bit busted, it’s a necessary evil nadamsayin

[raw galleon]

just came out of a portal and there was a single shielded enemy with the leader flag, and no other enemies lol

[inner wigeon]

Well yummy power up ammiright

[raw galleon]

i didnt even get anything

https://www.reddit.com/r/Doom/comments/1kqsxma/who_tf_does_this_guy_think_he_is/

idk if it was a bug or a joke lol

[velvet elbow]

I hope one day i can sync my accounts to steam, maybe so i don’t gotta buy the same game on pc all over again

[inner wigeon]

Oh yeah lol, they’re usually put there to just buff one other enemy that’s usually of a higher power, like a komodo or a vagary

[raw galleon]

i am gonna unpause and get jumpscared by some other enemy

he cant be a true leader if there is no one there to be led

didnt know this game went that deep

[amber wren]

a true leader leads when no ones watching

[raw galleon]

it was just him, poor guy

true environmental storytelling

what a masterpiece

[cursive path]

ETERNAL IS TEMPORARY, DOOM IS DARK AGES

[velvet elbow]

It’s a Dark Age for the doom community, it never was meant to be Eternal

[cursive path]

Indeed.

2016

[velvet elbow]

[raw galleon]

doom welcomes all players, whether you're 20, 16, or any other age 🙂

[cursive path]

This doom, it's... eternal!
TITLE APPEARS

[naive ridge]

Gonna play nightmare with 300% demon damage and 75% slayer damage (outgoing for both) like 5 times then no diff basic UN

We’ll lower the resources and daze duration too why not

[velvet elbow]

It hasn’t even been a week and we are already turning into the Arkham sub

[cursive path]

Whats the arkham sub

[naive ridge]

They’re insane

[raw galleon]

they tweaking off the jonkler cart

[naive ridge]

Like the titanfall 2 subreddit

[velvet elbow]

7 years without a new game can do that

[cursive path]

Playing doom games does require a certain level of insanity

[raw galleon]

the ultra violence of these games can be a nightmare for some

[cursive path]

ORPHANAGE IS TEMPORARY, DOOM IS 2016

[velvet elbow]

Maybe for a day we should all just act like how the media portrays people that play video games act just to see what happens

[raw galleon]

but to that i say, hurt me plenty

[plucky delta]

the BFC is useless in this game ima be honest

[raw galleon]

idk theres so much ammo for it

[cursive path]

OH BOY I AM GOING TO COMMIT MURDER DOOM REFERENCE

[raw galleon]

i barely use it because i actually want to not skip every fight

[plucky delta]

i havent touched it once since the begining of the game and i beat it without using it. it is NOT needed

[raw galleon]

tbf there are multiple waves in most fights anyway so probably unrealistic

[jolly geyser]

cosmic ball chain launcher minus well be the ultimate weapon lol. shit just bops everything in 2-3 launches.

[naive ridge]

You can beat LFD 2 by medkit bashing, all the guns are useless

[plucky delta]

never tried cuz its mid

[long sparrow]

Unless you are below 13 then you get instantly banned because of Discord's TOS

[tranquil zodiac]

imo its not that good

[long sparrow]

@plucky delta
How did you get that tag?

[plucky delta]

server

[long sparrow]

Which one?

[sharp moat]

it does a lot of damage

U have to hold it down and release

[violet marsh]

Where is My boy in the Doom Wikipedia book thing Codex blah blah...

[raw galleon]

ball and chain seems good but you can just run in their face and super shotgun

[sudden stump]

chain shot is op as shit

[mossy totem]

We need this game to do better then indie game they made

[raw galleon]

the armour breaking on it is huge tho

[severe ore]

Hello

[raw galleon]

idk if it does more damage on headshot

[amber wren]

the impaler is everything the chain gun wants to be

[violet marsh]

Hi

[severe ore]

Sup

[raw galleon]

everything feels powerful in this game because enemies are made of paper

[violet marsh]

Where is the arachtron entry in the Codex?

[tranquil zodiac]

rocket does a lot too, even more so when you parry a projectile, and doesn't need charging. The SSG does massive damage from close range and can one shot hell knights, two shot battle knights, one hit stagger revenants

[raw galleon]

yeah ssg is insane, and i dont even have the damage upgrade

[tranquil zodiac]

you can one shot cacodemons with the charged rocket btw

[amber wren]

impaler also one shot knights

i like the impaler if no one can tell

[violet marsh]

I'm disappointed with the ssg in this game

[tranquil zodiac]

i also really like it

[raw galleon]

does that upgrade on the rocket launcher that 'increases splash damage' increase the impact damage as well?

ive been using the empowered shot but idk if its actually better

[amber wren]

idk does the splash hit the enemy you direct with it

[raw galleon]

yeah its not really that well explained

id happily take the risk of more self damage because you dont really wanna shoot the thing without cannibalism being active

[amber wren]

i like it more than ssg for super heavies since it charges the melee

but ssg is just the fuckblast 1000

[raw galleon]

what didnt you like about it?

yeah ssg seems overtuned, i kinda hope they nerf it so its still fun to use without making shit too easy

but unlikely

[sudden stump]

Ssg was the reason I changed my damage settings it's just so goddamn broken

[fossil badger]

i wanna to replay it already

[raw galleon]

funny how they seem to have repeated the same thing as 2016 there lol

[fossil badger]

just 100% it on nightmare yesterday, but i'm gonna wait for my new card

[raw galleon]

i think the weapon you choose is definitely why people are having varying experiences with nightmare difficulty

[violet marsh]

The ssg is your Beat friend, in This game her normal brother sets fire to enemies in addition to giving armor, I think the ssg should have this function in addition to having at least 20 shots or 50

[raw galleon]

not a big fan of the 'dont use the broken thing' kind of game design, but it is what it is

[velvet elbow]

It reminds me of the ssg in the og Doom 2. It’s ridiculously overpowered but in a game like this you need that kind of power

[tranquil marsh]

Hi guys, has anyone experienced the bug in ps5 where after getting all the shield base and rune upgrades and all melee upgrades you wouldn’t get the trophy/achievement for it even though you did get them? Not sure if this bug also applied for the other platforms

[amber wren]

tbf 4-5 of the weapons are just really strong

[velvet elbow]

We are all getting the bug man

[raw galleon]

yeah, ive seen a lot of debate over best gun tbf, i barely tried the impaler but heard similar things

[naive ridge]

Auto switch should not be on by default

[velvet elbow]

It’s all very good imo

[raw galleon]

ssg just is obviously good because you see it 1 shot a hell knight

[amber wren]

impaler is nuts

[lethal mural]

why has civvie not done his thing yet for tda

[delicate grotto]

Depends on the playstyle imo.
I love the SSG and Skullcrusher

[wheat cliff]

he plays other games...

[raw galleon]

there isnt a huge amount of risk to just charging in and SSG on a lot of enemies

[tranquil marsh]

Damn alright, not sure how universal the bug was. Any statements by Id software on if they’re working on a fix or something?

[velvet elbow]

Just wait man, it’s probably gonna be over an hour long

[violet marsh]

It's still very disappointing

[velvet elbow]

Give it time

[raw galleon]

i like the normal shotgun but it doesnt seem that great

[lethal mural]

Doom is easily his most popular topic.

[raw galleon]

idk why it consumes more ammo than the SSG with the triple burst while doing way less damage

[violet marsh]

She fires three shots and quickly

[raw galleon]

and the armor isnt amazing

[velvet elbow]

The armor is worth it

[tranquil marsh]

Alright 👍, honestly would’ve been nice to just have the platinum for the game but its whatever

[velvet elbow]

I feel it man just wait

[amber wren]

wombat shotgun is nice for armor sustain on bosses but otherwise just ssg it

[raw galleon]

having armor / health drops from a weapon is great, but even better is just killing the thing in front of you so it cant hurt you

[tranquil zodiac]

ok, just beat the game

honestly im glad its over. It was getting kinda repetitive

[raw galleon]

i did think, SSG doing so much damage means you cant get a finisher on some enemies, so you kinda miss out on the extra health from that i think?

like they dont turn purple, they just die

idk if you have to finish with melee to get that extra health

[summer obsidian]

Finally off work

[summer obsidian]

Later in the game the Chainshot and even the railspike do that

[burnt moss]

never understood the impaler hype

[lethal mural]

Any thoughts on the steam numbers?

[sudden stump]

I guess nearly every weapon feels op once you upgrade them fully

[tranquil zodiac]

btw the cacodemon has a hole #screenshots

[burnt moss]

rpg does more and better

[summer obsidian]

It’s not that good and it’s perk is ass

[summer obsidian]

They are only low cuz most players are on Xbox cuz of gamepass and hardware restrictions

[burnt moss]

parry charged rpg halves a cyberdemons health

if that isnt insane then idk what is

[lethal mural]

its a third of Eternals though

[raw galleon]

what difficulty is that on tho

[burnt moss]

nightmare

[summer obsidian]

We don’t know Xbox’s numbers and u have to remember eternal came out during the pandemic

[burnt moss]

i cant wait until they add some sort of endless mode/horde mode like eternal did

[raw galleon]

i never 2 shot a cyber demon with empowered rockets, did you aim for the head?

[lethal mural]

i know but still 70% reduction is a lot

[summer obsidian]

Again, Xbox has the majority of the players steam doesn’t represent all players in the slightest

[amber wren]

i got tda using edge points

[burnt moss]

idk ill go see. under the mayo has a video on the rpg and he demonstrates exactly that

[summer obsidian]

Bro how many did u have

[raw galleon]

ah right, i gotta check his stuff out, maybe when i finish the game

[merry sapphire]

people forget that gamepass exists, you dont realize how much is 70 dollars when you can get a subscription for 15 for a campaign only game
also eternal released at peak lockdown where everyone was locked in their homes lmao

[amber wren]

only need 7.5k for gamepass

[raw galleon]

co op horde mode is such a missed opportunity

[merry sapphire]

horde mode in general should have been at at launch
or atleast some master levels

[lethal mural]

I dont think that fully accounts for it. I think that the lack of content and challenge definitely add to the drop off in playerbase

[summer obsidian]

Ya a lot of my friends couldn’t afford the actual game so they just got gamepass and cancelled the payment

[raw galleon]

need more stuff like that, had so much fun playing resident evil 5/6 mercenaries with friends, there isnt enough stuff like that with good combat mechanics

[delicate grotto]

Disappointing to see.
Wouldn’t say price of the game is an excuse since it’s free on gamepass.
I suspect:
The lack of a physical disc caused a lot of physical collector’s edition preorders to be cancelled.
Eternal released during Covid. TDA released in the middle of the week. It also released two separate times.

The hefty spec requirements and Denuvo inclusion are the main thing to consider though.

Regardless, console numbers are likely higher.

[burnt moss]

horde mode is kinda ass overall. they shouldve done a different kind of endless mode

[zinc pollen]

Idk. this game feels like. kinda boring combat

[merry sapphire]

exactly, not to mention that the game is 80 dollars overall

[raw galleon]

like sure you can play l4d2 or something but its not really the same

[burnt moss]

what difficulty you on

[amber wren]

most of the playerbase does not play games for challenge in any game

[merry sapphire]

eternal horde mode is amazing but for the dark ages, an endless horde mode would fit better

[zinc pollen]

nightmare

[amber wren]

its a small fraction of players who ever do the high difficulty stuff in games

[summer obsidian]

My brother in Christ the game has a longer campaign than eternal and 2016 combined and there’s difficulty sliders to make the game harder

[burnt moss]

this games intense as shit idk what u talm abt

[zinc pollen]

nightmare is ez...

[merry sapphire]

dont know about having a longer campaign than 2 whole games

[lethal mural]

id say there is less positive word of mouth.. peolpe tend to like value for money.

[summer obsidian]

Doom eternal was 8 levels

[merry sapphire]

you control the difficulty you select

[lethal mural]

the campaign doesnt take as long to do though, and there are no other modes at all at launch... even with the sliders maxxed out tda is not as difficult

[merry sapphire]

13 levels not including the dlcs

[amber wren]

yea i think the 80 buck pricetag is a bigger factor than people are giving credit to

[raw galleon]

sliders are cool but a well designed base difficulty is better

[lethal mural]

And it still doesnt get as hard as Eternal or 2016

[raw galleon]

and means you can actually discuss difficulties without having to state like 5 different numbers

well, having good base difficulty and sliders would be the best

[summer obsidian]

Please send a video of u beating the game on UN with all the sliders set to the hardest difficulty (any demon can one shot u at that level)

[merry sapphire]

well im definitely struggling more in dark ages than doom eternal on base nightmare. and i got 800 hours in eternal with ultra nightmare under my belt

[lethal mural]

Why would i bother lying

[quaint saddle]

1 hour on doom and its just me launch the game and getting fucking bug splat error any fix?

[summer obsidian]

Because not getting hit once the entire campaign is near impossible

[lethal mural]

You didnt answer my question

[plain iron]

Bcs this is the internet. Folk can lie.

[raw galleon]

dark ages players when they see a o---o projectile approaching

[summer obsidian]

I don’t think ur lying, I think your under estimating the actual difficulty

[merry sapphire]

because every single message you sent ever since you joined the server 4 days ago was hate towards the game in every single way. even on shit that dont really matter there is genuinely nothing you like about the game not a single thing

[summer obsidian]

not as bad as
O——
O——
O——

[raw galleon]

the biggest threat in this game is some random fucker shooting you from behind when youre fighting an actual threatening enemy

[summer obsidian]

Bro brought recipes

[lethal mural]

But about how good i am at doom?.... seriously... im an old man, i dont give a damn about how good i am at doom.... I would much much rather be struggle on hmp, like i did in my first playthrough of eternal, because that would mean i would have 2 more difficulty levels at least to go through

[quaint saddle]

is a shit game most people cant even launch it

[summer obsidian]

That’s how actual fighting goes

[plain iron]

It's the internet. Folk lie bout stupid shit.

[lethal mural]

thats a lie

[summer obsidian]

Once again I ask u to prove u can beat the game on UN on the hardest sliders

[raw galleon]

who up hardening they sliders

[plain iron]

If it's so easy, it should be easy to prove.

[summer obsidian]

That’s what I’m sayin

[lethal mural]

You are dramatically overestimating how much i care about this conversation. 😆

[summer obsidian]

Then why say the game was easy

[delicate grotto]

@lethal mural
Look, the spec requirements are 100% the main reason. Yes it’s requiring “modern technology” but most people don’t have it due to an increase in prices.
Your average player doesn’t have a PC that meets TDA’s minimum requirements. There’s few games out right now that would push players to upgrade, and Doom is not one of them (for most).

[lethal mural]

because it was... am i the first person to say this

[plain iron]

Alright. Then show us your gameplay.

[raw galleon]

yeah the requirements for this are insane, im borrowing a 2080ti atm and that still feels like the bare minimum

[summer obsidian]

You the type of person to shun people in Elden ring for using summons

[plain iron]

Show us the gameplay w maxxed sliders

[merry sapphire]

mannn fuck all dat i jus realized you play tekken 8 hop on a game

[raw galleon]

i heard amd gets better performance so i might have the same experience on my 6700XT, but im not even reaching consistent 60fps in the lategame on low settings lul

[delicate grotto]

Yeah it’s fucking over the game.
Sad to see it suffering so much from the technical push.

[lethal mural]

Not until they fix lee.

[raw galleon]

i did hear raytracing makes it easier for the devs to develop lighting and stuff so i guess thats a win

[plain iron]

Usually if there's resistance to proving a claim, usually they're spouting shit. Very common thing I see in art as well

[merry sapphire]

didntr they fuck over every character in the game by making every single character aggresive as fuck

[raw galleon]

just means pushing devs for even earlier release dates though i imagine

[summer obsidian]

Not only is it easier but the gun system also uses it

[raw galleon]

oh yeah, always forget about that stuff

[lethal mural]

Or, alternatively you arent worth the effort of walking upstairs

[raw galleon]

tbf the game looks really nice

[delicate grotto]

Once the end of the month sales numbers are released I wouldn’t be surprised if console outperformed PC 3x more.

[raw galleon]

could be a bit less blurry, had to turn sharpness to max

[quaint saddle]

how tf do i fix bugsplat ewrror

[summer obsidian]

If they didn’t use raytracing the game wouldn’t be out for another 2 years, baking light takes so long, it’s all computing no amount of money can make it go faster

[merry sapphire]

oh yeah def thats how triple A games sell usually. especially with the reduced input this game focused on as opposed to eternal

[lethal mural]

Yeah, they wanted to make it more appealling as an esport i think. So they took out any option that didnt result in attack attack attack... its actually pretty funny. They released a patch so poor, it may have just killed a 30+ year franchise.

And my main is now literally by far the worst in the game😆

[proud sand]

Hola alguien habla español

[delicate grotto]

As long as TDA can make similar numbers to Eternal, I’m not worried about Doom’s future.
Game deserves more traction than it’s getting though. At least a playthrough of it was trending on YouTube today.

[plain iron]

Brother can't even walk up stairs dawg. If you want us to believe your frankly bullshit claim, 5 seconds to walk up the stairs isn't much effort.

[merry sapphire]

its been months since i played tekken 8 but did they really fuck it up THAT bad that they decided to fire the entire balencing team LMAO

[summer obsidian]

I’m not worried period, Microsoft knows doom makes money

[raw galleon]

even if the hardware requirements are huge, at least the game doesnt stutter every 10 fucking seconds

so many shitty pc releases

i dropped silent hill 2 completely because of that

[merry sapphire]

ironically my brother is actually maining lee now and he's been killin it. think he is a mighty ruler now

[lethal mural]

Ive never seen anything like it... even the pros and streamers moved on to sf6

[delicate grotto]

Yeah but I wish there wasn’t so much doom and gloom (pun unintended) around the game’s steam performance when so many variables account for it.

[summer obsidian]

PlayStation ports are the worst when it comes to this

[merry sapphire]

you know its bad when they move to fuckin sf6 😂

[raw galleon]

idk what it is, ps5 seems to avoid most of the stuttering, idk if it's because of the shared RAM/VRAM thing

[proud sand]

Friends emmm, can someone help me?

[summer obsidian]

PS doesn’t care they just want money

[summer obsidian]

Sure what’s up

[lethal mural]

If he is having fun then cool. But its not my thing.... sf6 is an awesome entry, but for the tekken fanboys to admit it sucks is quite something.

[raw galleon]

its too common, like there has to be something about ps5 architecture that just makes these shitty UE5 releases run better

[merry sapphire]

to be fair, doom the dark ages pc requirements are high because they push the technical limit and innovating on technology n shi, but silent hill 2 requirements being high is because of how shitty the optimization is

[summer obsidian]

Ya atleast doom runs very well

[merry sapphire]

dont tell noone but i actually never played sf6 i jus think its funny to shit on it Highkey

[raw galleon]

my friend had some minor stuttering in SH2 but he has a fucking 4080 or something

[proud sand]

@summer obsidian Do you have Game Pass you could share with me to play the new DOOM? I couldn’t buy it because I spent my money on medical treatments...

[raw galleon]

and only ultrawide

[merry sapphire]

@lethal mural whats your rank actually

[lethal mural]

You want me to boot up the ps5, and record gameplay footage so i can prove to a bunch of people that i dropped 100 euros on a game that i have already finished with.... so i can win an argument that is meaningless and that i have no skin in any way.... No.

[summer obsidian]

Oof that sucks I’m sorry that happened, unfortunately I don’t feel comfortable sharing my log in info. I wish u the best of luck and hope whatever is happening gets sorted out

[plain iron]

Dawg if I can take the 4 minutes to prove that I don't use AI in my art, you can get up and prove us all wrong.

[lethal mural]

Tenryu i think. I havent played much lee this year.

[proud sand]

@summer obsidian Okei friend, thank you anyway and sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks for the good vibes 🥹

[lethal mural]

do you care about your art?

[merry sapphire]

oh sick Same. tenryu with jin and a Mighty ruler on shaheen

[plain iron]

When someone claims I use ai, I usually don't gaf

[summer obsidian]

No problem, I wish I could help more

[lethal mural]

Ah nice. Youre better than me then.

[timid dagger]

Sk sk oop

[lethal mural]

I dont really care at all under any circumstances.

its just doom

[merry sapphire]

nah, to be honest i think some factor is to be considered that i got mighty ruler with shaheen because nobody plays shaheen really so they cant really deal with him. Though honestly i didnt play him cause of that i jus think he's fun as fuck with his switch ups and also i gotta rep my country

[cursive path]

Why tf did they make a doom game, the game famous for being able to run on fucking anything, have mandatory raytracing

[proud sand]

@summer obsidian Just enjoy the game for me, my friend 🥹

[merry sapphire]

the minimum requirement is a 6 year old card

[lethal mural]

Nah dont down play. you have a couple of solid characters. I think lee benefits from that as well to be honest. ranked in t8 became super toxic though . alisa alisa alisa alisa jin alisa Kuma alisa

[long sparrow]

They weren't too sharp with that

[terse hollow]

What do you mean?!? How dare it not run on my gtx 280

[lethal mural]

bringing a bear to a fist fight seems cheap to me

[fair notch]

Any word on the abysmal HDR support being fixed?

[cursive path]

I'm not allowed to use exclamation marks now I guess

[merry sapphire]

true, god i fuckin hate alisa i genuinely cannot figure her out even in practice. used to struggle with king too but my brother mains king and we play almost everyday so eventually i figured out king
Heard they buffed king like crazy too

[terse hollow]

!!!

[merry sapphire]

nope. i used reshade to fix the black levels in the game. game looks amazing now

[hard thistle]

Huge flex

[merry sapphire]

lazy devs Smh 🤦‍♂️

[terse hollow]

Apparently the servers p2w 😅

[merry sapphire]

!!!

@cursive path Not that hard man

[terse hollow]

Or not

[merry sapphire]

its just Skill Issue at this point

[cursive path]

[rose path]

Ay how do I report a bug?

It’s not counting my armor essence on chapter 11

[amber wren]

1/10 game

[terse hollow]

You dont

[rose path]

Oh cool

[cursive path]

The next doom game better not require ray tracing too

[rose path]

So I just can’t 100% the game even tho I got everything

[merry pumice]

why does the accelerator have a CSGO style weapon recoil pattern 😭😭

[terse hollow]

Oh yeah that'll get fixed. A bunch of people are having that issue pretty sure

[maiden elm]

is anyone getting a bug where it resets ur progress on a chapter completely when trying to go to the next chapter

[merry sapphire]

the next doom game better be hexen

[fair notch]

Hopefully the next doom game is a Hexen game! I'd love to see a class-bassed game!

[merry sapphire]

yeah yeah steal my original thought

[fair notch]

lol at your edit. I pre-ordered hexen from EB a million years ago

[merry sapphire]

living fossil over here 😂

[fair notch]

still slayin'

[merry sapphire]

Respect

[summer obsidian]

Don’t run on the water ring toss handheld unfortunately

[fair notch]

I was talking to my students about playing doom as a four year old with my uncle when it first released, and they were shook.

[merry sapphire]

thats sick

how was doom 3 back when it dropped

[lethal mural]

yeah his new moves are pretty broken. Alisa has always been a pain. i dont think its a knowledge check. I just think she is broken.

[terse hollow]

😂😂 Goddamnit. What has happened to this society

[lethal mural]

Doom 3 was mindblowing. Everyone hated the lack of a flashlight immediately, but the buzz around that game was insane

[merry sapphire]

yeah her range is insane, correct me if im wrong but she has a move that instantly gets her close to you right? also not to mention the new broken ass dlc characters like heihachi and that final fantasy guy

[amber wren]

what game

[fair notch]

I think Tekken?

[amber wren]

ah

[merry sapphire]

heard that when the game dropped, its graphical fidelity was insane. even better than half life 2 even though it released earlier

[fair notch]

As usual, the press around idTech at the time was just as huge as the gameplay. The lighting and volumetric shadows were unheard of at the time

[lethal mural]

She doesnt need to be close she has 6 ft chainsaws for hands😆 .. heihatchi isnt so bad because he has weaknesses, he has like 0 tracking on his moves and they finally buffed sidestep... I hope they fix it in the june patch. Either that or the game is toast already like Mk1

[merry sapphire]

glad that no matter the time, idtech is still one of the top for its innovation and technological push to move the industry. like how global illumination is a key part in doom the dark ages which makes it look amazing. especially when the slayer falls down and all the light sources shake

[lethal mural]

And such a vast vast difference from 2.... The amount of time that passed between 2 and 3 is around the same as the gap between 2016 and TDA.. The atmosphere was just off the charts.. its the reason that game is still talked about because the gameplay in reality is pretty generic. but the tone is not like anything else, certainly at the time.

[merry sapphire]

was heihachi nerfed or something? i remember he had normal tracking atleast. not to mention the tracking of his wavedash. hopefully the game does get fixed since they literally replaced the entire team responsible for balancing. though i hope the game doesnt get as defensive as tekken 7. i love the aggresive nature of tekken 8

[lethal mural]

They probably nerfed him a little yeah, they always overtune new DLC characters then tone them down later on. I like t8 as well. They still havent gotten the heat system right but that game has so much promise.. If they tone back the 50/50 situations and buff defence generally (and fix lee) it will be a great game.

[merry sapphire]

doom 3 is a good game, just not a good doom game (In My Humble Opinion). besides, speaking of tones. Did you ever try doom 64?

[merry sapphire]

yeah the game being full of 50/50's is insane. i do think they need to buff defence in general but it shouldnt be the focus of the game. aggressiveness is what makes tekken 8 fun for me

[lethal mural]

Yeah, underrated game. pitty about the lack of enemy sprites that can fit the N64 cartridge but still a fun title

[merry sapphire]

honestly just goes to show how much of a technical marvel mario 64 was

[real crater]

i just got to the part where vega says "payment required" im lmfao

[velvet elbow]

I think I realized ID just opened up a portal to powerscaling fuckery considering the mace is infinintely dense according to the codex

[snow pewter]

I’m so worn out from getting the armor skins that I don’t feel like doing these mastery missions

[tulip canyon]

So am I the only one who thought this? There’s a lot of inspiration and similarly between He-Man and The Dark Ages.

He-man = The Slayer
Teela =Thira
Shadow Weaver = The Witch
Skeletor = Prince Ahzrak

[naive ridge]

They rly need to remove the sliders from UN

My will to do things legitimately is fading and they’re so tempting lol

[velvet elbow]

Give in man, slay your way. Allow yourself the challenge of permadeath on a difficulty you enjoy

[snow pewter]

They don’t make completing masteries any faster. I did UN legit but the weapon skins I’m gonna use modifiers for.

[naive ridge]

I wanna feel like I earned that shiny golden outfit

[teal kestrel]

Do you guys know where I can report a bug in doom?

[naive ridge]

Weapon mastery challenges are just tedious, I’d be totally cool using modified sliders for them

UN is challenging instead of tedious so I see em differently

[velvet elbow]

You could always get the skin and then try legit UN after

[naive ridge]

Although I do wish I could skip chapter 1

It’ll be what keeps me playing when I pick up every secret, so I’d like to get the gold legit

[potent cypress]

anyone buy the game on Xbox? I bought the game on Steam but I bought the controller and I have a code that I can't use.

[velvet elbow]

Sure

Just DM me it

[light socket]

has the game been fixed yet

[velvet elbow]

Still waiting

[potent cypress]

it's sent

[light socket]

atp im starting to think there is just smth wrong with my pc

[velvet elbow]

Thanks for the code

[plain iron]

It's not the game, usually, it's driver issues. Try downgrading your drivers and see if it works.

[light socket]

alr

what should i downgrade them to

[plain iron]

Uhh previous version ig, I ain't the person to ask. That's just a common fix.

[light socket]

alr

the game just loves to randomly freeze for some reason

[leaden hollow]

In all of history the biggest peaceful times have been held hostage by a fear of the greatest catastrophe. Like a nuclear bomb for instance. Why dont the the demons realize they cant win? and offer peace in light of the mass genocide of my extermination?

[limpid cipher]

had that same issue downgrade to driver version 566

[boreal sedge]

I've come to terms with the performance I get in this game when using the "optimized" digital foundry settings

[light socket]

alr thx

[hard thistle]

You can use morale encounters to cheese weapon mysteries

[limpid cipher]

i get 150 fps on max graphics 😭

[boreal sedge]

Native? What resolution?

[limpid cipher]

yeah but 1080p so not saying much

[boreal sedge]

Yeah 1080p lol

[fair elk]

Does anyone know if there is a bug with the arachnatron not appearing on the codex entries? I'm now on chapter 8 and it's the only enemy that hasn't appeared in the enemy codex entries

[limpid cipher]

about the same performance as forza for me though if not slightly worse

[boreal sedge]

I'm at 1440p and with XeSS ultra quality plus, and a mix of settings, I get about 70-80fps

[limpid cipher]

pc specs?

[teal kestrel]

Quick question, to get the trophy of 100 percenting every level, can I split the progress between 2 save files or do I have to do it all on one

[boreal sedge]

5700x3d, 7800xt, 32gb ddr4 3200, 2tb 990pro gen 4 nvme

[limpid cipher]

oh nice

[amber wren]

y notget 32gb ddr4 its p cheap

[boreal sedge]

Oh I mistyped lol

[limpid cipher]

i got i9 14900k, rtx 4070 ti, 32gb ddr5 6000, 2tb 990pro

(yes i regret going intel)

[boreal sedge]

I had 16 gb for years until my upgrade in november so it's habit haha, I do have 32

[amber wren]

gotcha

[boreal sedge]

You should regret going nvidia (half joking)

[limpid cipher]

lmao probably

built it about a year and a half ago

[boreal sedge]

Sounds like we have roughly comparable specs

[limpid cipher]

yeah seems pretty close

[boreal sedge]

Why still 1080p?

[limpid cipher]

i have decently high refresh rate monitors

honestly fine with 1080p rn anyway but may switch to 1440p in the future

[amber wren]

fair tbh high refresh 1440p still decently expensive

[limpid cipher]

yeah that too

i got two 27 inch 1080p 280hz monitors rn

[boreal sedge]

Yeah I did pay a lot for my monitor but it was worth it

[limpid cipher]

whenever i do go 1440p im not gonna cheap out ill probably go for an oled

ive seen some of my friends have oled monitors and man the difference is insane

[boreal sedge]

That's what I did, definitely worth the money, honestly the hdr + OLED was more of a boost than the resolution itself

The 360hz is really nice too for older games like 2016 and Eternal (and of course the OG games lol)

[limpid cipher]

theres a lot of changes i want to make with my computer tho cause it was my first time planning and actually building a computer so some things arent the greatest

cpu was definitely overkill i couldve probably got a 4080 super if i got a cheaper one

[boreal sedge]

Man I love pc building, it's a such a fun hobby, too bad it's gotten so damn expensive

[limpid cipher]

yeah prices are wild

[amber wren]

intel trying to bring cost down

[limpid cipher]

intels newest gen sucks doesnt it? (cpus)

[boreal sedge]

It would actually be semi reasonable if you could get anything for msrp

[amber wren]

gaming is just an awkward market for hardware producers

[mental gate]

2016 is locked to 200 sadly, and besides, the game is insanely borken at that high fps

[pale lava]

What's the best map to farm mastery challenges?

[boreal sedge]

Yeah the 200fps cap is sad but it plays great still

[pale lava]

like it was final sin in eternal

[boreal sedge]

Siege part 1 probably, you pretty quickly get right to a large horde with a variety of demons, but nothing too tough as to demand attention

[limpid cipher]

i gotta head out see you guys later 👋

[boreal sedge]

Man once the Agadon hunters become buffed mini bosses they're the first truly challenging enemy in the game imo (playing on UV)

The Cosmic Barons can be tough too if you fuck up a parry at the wrong time

[velvet elbow]

Will the legionary skin eventually be available for anyone that hasn’t purchased the RTX card in any other way?

I’m praying man

Not because of how it looks, but just because it’s the only one I am missing

[terse hollow]

Maybe once Bigfoot is found

[velvet elbow]

Damn

It doesn’t even look good, but I am a completionist…

[amber wren]

buy a gpu for it

[jolly geyser]

just spend 2 grand 4Head

[amber wren]

gotta support indie studios

[velvet elbow]

https://tenor.com/view/wallet-gif-25866507

[terse hollow]

Rob a liqour store

[velvet elbow]

Good idea, I need to drown my sorrows anyways

[terse hollow]

Two birds one stone

[velvet elbow]

Idk i can’t tell if it’s ID being greedy, Bethesda, Microsoft, or Zinemax

So many people to hate

[plain iron]

It's probably nvidia tbh

[jolly geyser]

the companies after id lol, theres not one dev. working on this game thinking "let me put all my cool skins in these bundles that all cost thousands of dollars total".

[covert goblet]

Just got the "lore nerd" achievement.

I fucking love whoever came up with the achievement names.

[honest vortex]

Also the sound effect, impact, and explosions were next level

[honest vortex]

Yeah. Mishimas still cool characters doe. (Kazuya, Reina, Heihachi, and Devil Jin are all super cool and super fun characters.)

But everyone else are insufferable

Though it goes deeper than that.

Nearly everyone is extreme 50/50 casinos all day with BS tracking, realignment, and ridiculous hitboxes on everything with heat mode and rage being extremely cheap scrubby comeback mechanics, as well as plus frame spam the game, and significantly nerfed Korean backdashing

Tekken 8 Season 1 already had some big issues, but Season 2 doubled down on Season 1's worst aspects, and removed a lot of the actually great and amazing qualities of Season 1 for Tekken 8

[honest vortex]

People were expecting the game to get improved over time, but then they decided to release the worst update/patch/season in fighting game history.

[naive ridge]

I think all attacks should be able to be perfect-blocked and not take shield durability

[honest vortex]

They recently got a new balancing team, and released an update that did improve things again, but it's very very slow improvement, and it's piece by piece

[amber wren]

devs like to do this thing where when people dont like a mechanic they double down on that mechanic

marauder caught a lot of flak now tda is maraduer: the game

[honest vortex]

Truth. Even Tekken 7 Season 4 had some of these aspects people were complaining about, yet they continued it in Tekken 8 lmfao

2D characters were a horrible addition to Tekken 7

Also Tekken 8 completely ruined Jin.

Jin Kazama was so fucking sick and saucey (gameplay wise) in Tekken 7.

But they made him lame, braindead, and overpowered AF in Tekken 8 when he used to be a specialist character by legacy, and replaced many of his dope Kyokushin Karate moves with Devil Jin bootlegged moves.

[shadow oyster]

is quickswapping in tda even worth it? (using the tech where you can anim cancel after blocking and melee)
I feel it is not that much more dps than spamming m1 and parry, and the punish is incredibly punishing since mispressing inputs will fuck you over

The double tap = swap weapon class also makes the punish really bad.

Maybe the quickswap combatshotgun/ssg tech is worth it because of the dps + armor gain combo?

otherwise i dont see how ssg+bash+ssg isnt just more dps (and safer) than trying quickswap combos like ssg rocket etc.

Anyone has experience with the melee/bash quickswap technique?

Im not sure it is worth doing but i guess we are still discovering stuff? idk

[marble plume]

Keeps resetting when I change difficulty to Nightmare on my Ultra Violence save back to Ultra Violence

Also resets my other sliders that I lower/increase to make the game harder after I complete levels

[frosty cypress]

does beating the campaign on pandemonium with the difficulty sliders adjusted to make it easier still unlock the skin? also about how long to speed through it?

[silver sierra]

dark ages is kinda fire

[ocean kraken]

cant believe at first i thought i wouldnt like this game as i had beaten eternal for the first time a couple months before tda released, and now i love it even more than eternal
people complaining that its slow are just wrong

[spark elm]

Is thira a protag or antag?

[spark elm]

When they can literally speed up the game’s pace… wild.

[plain iron]

She's a protagonist

[ocean kraken]

sci fi and midevial are my two favorite genres so this game is absolutely perfect for me tbh

[final dune]

Can someone tell me what that war factory level is that was in the first trailer in the skull crusher part?

[spark elm]

Oh, good to know.

[merry sapphire]

you add jin to that list thats my current main 💔

[sinful robin]

i have the bug in chapter 21 the crash in loading time. is there a way to fix it?

[merry sapphire]

yeah but the maruader is actually good game design

[merry sapphire]

isnt the slayer the protagonist

and shes like the duotagonist or whatever it is

[merry sapphire]

you using an hdd?

[silver stump]

So I just got a new cpu to play this game and now it won’t even launch to the menu screen it just instant crashes

[uneven dragon]

she would be a deuteragonist

[silver stump]

Anyone got any fixes?

I’ve got the most recent drivers all across the board too

Nvm it’s getting too late

[spark elm]

Is there a limit to how long you can swim?

[long sparrow]

Nah

The slayer can breath through his helmet

[urban compass]

It does but I recommend against sliders unless you wanna make it harder

[next oar]

My only thought is if u didn't do any bios tuning to it maybe that could be why

[urban compass]

Like I played on 120% speed for most of my pandemonium run but crancked it down to 100% near the end because I realized I like it best that way

Pandemonium is like a warmup round for un, use it to master combat and find what game speed suits you

[silver sierra]

Is it possible to 100% the game within one playthrough?

[urban compass]

As in get all steam achivements? Yes

[next oar]

yes, only thing I had to replay missions for was weapon challenge masteries

[silver sierra]

Noice

[next oar]

100 lobotomy shots and such

[silver sierra]

So I don't need to play max difficulty or anything

[urban compass]

Every milestone requires 3 total playthroughs, 1 normal one, 1 pandemonium one, and 1 un one (plus beating level with one slider change)

But that doesn’t proc and steam achievements

[frosty cypress]

I've not very good at playing Doom lol, although I will say playing campaign on hurt me plenty is easier than eternal, Ive only died a handful of times

[long sparrow]

yes, i did it

[neon echo]

Its also possible to refund the game if you beat it under two hours i think

[urban compass]

You’ll get most achievements on your first run if you’re good at secret hunting, only needing to go back if there’s a collectable you missed or weapon you didn’t fully upgrade and madter

[urban compass]

No one’s besting da within 2 hours this is like a 15 hour game for first playthrough

[neon echo]

lmao ik but people have beaten games under 2 hours and refunded them

[urban compass]

I’d only reccomend pandemonium after either beating the campaign on nightmare, or at least playing a couple levels on nightmare so you know what you’re getting into

[burnt moss]

bro can an endless/horde mode drop already im tired of replaying Reckoning over and over 💔

[summer obsidian]

Play the rest of the campaign?

[wet stratus]

I just realised dark age doesnt have the insignia on his helmet

[urban compass]

We need battlemode in dark ages trust

[summer obsidian]

Let me go fact check this I have the replica

[urban compass]

I wanna play as the cosmic baron

[summer obsidian]

Hugo said it’s not happening

[burnt moss]

they have none of the fun demons before the first cosmic realm chapter

[silver sierra]

Bruh I don't plan on doing that 💀 If they make a good game, I wanna pay for it

[neon echo]

Wait do we have an action figure room in the dark ages? you know with the collectables and all

[next oar]

Didn't they say that it nots off the table?

I forget which interview, they said that

[summer obsidian]

Ya it doesn’t, weird

[wet stratus]

isn't the sign like a danger symbol for the sarcophagus? maybe thats why

[next oar]

I feel like they could do something with the mechs

[wet stratus]

he wasnt trapped yet

[summer obsidian]

No it’s simply the mark of the slayer, for demons it is a warning sign

[next oar]

Hopefully we get some sorta new content soon and not in like 4 months

[wet stratus]

mechs feel like a demo for a certain thing that hugo worked on 11 years ago 👀

but yeah they definitely could do that

[long sparrow]

The game has been out for less than 2 weeks, give them some time

[next oar]

yea yea that's what they all say

[summer obsidian]

Feel like a cool multiplayer would be just serrat dog fights

[long sparrow]

because it's the truth lol

[next oar]

It was in development for how long tho? And not even 1 master level on release 😪

[urban compass]

A man can dream

A very derranged man who likes battlemode

[summer obsidian]

Battle mode doesn’t hold up today

[urban compass]

It’s my guilty pleasure

Plus the battlemode 3.0 mod is goated

[burnt moss]

battemode was fun for 15 minutes

[urban compass]

It’s my special little mode, I enjoyed it for hours

[next oar]

Being the demons was great

[urban compass]

Archvile main here

I always love playing as a demon no matter what

Demon rune in 2016 was the goat, eternal multiplayer was great

[ocean kraken]

tbh i kind of doubt this game will get a multiplayer but it would be cool

[urban compass]

It won’t and generally doesn’t need one

Just master levels and dlc

[ocean kraken]

agreed tbh, the multiplayer in the other two is kinda fun but i barely played it

[forest badger]

Hi, has on the DOOM team acknowledged the ‘Berserker’ trophy being glitched. I just basically speed ran through my second play through to get it and it still didn’t pop. It’s actually pretty frustrating given that I want to start writing my video for it. Is there anyone specific I should tag for this? Thanks!

[violet lynx]

yo how can i make my sensnsity the same in dark ages as eternal

cuz it feels off

[delicate stirrup]

Imp Stalkers feel like discount Arch-Viles who lack the summoning/resurrection ability.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

[urban compass]

Nightmare imp stalkers are bastards

I hate stone imps more though

[uneven dragon]

they make archvile noises too

[timid furnace]

is there a way to noclip in the game? there's this bug that's driving me nuts since 2 days

[light flower]

this game is f awesome

[spark elm]

Cyber demon is already my most hated enemy… I guess they’re just supposed to be harder enemies.

[ocean kraken]

cacodemons seriously got turned from silly floating meatball to eldritch horror

[sudden stump]

they bred with tentacle meatballs

[ocean kraken]

tbh i kind of like just parrying the shit out of them

[violet lynx]

im using 150% speed lol

[dusty halo]

You can't unhear the archvile death sound.

[sonic turret]

I mean Eternal felt slightly different from 2016, you just have to play with the settings a bit. You'll get used to the difference anyway.

[violet lynx]

yeah i tried playing 2016 and the scaling was difrent

[urban compass]

They launch fortnite walls at you now

[manic timber]

Berserker achievement still bugged? Can they even fix it? :S

[sonic turret]

It's like switching between Windows, Mac and Android, i barely even notice the difference between them anymore, I'm just so used to using the three of them.

[sterile sage]

Has anyone cleared Ultra nightmare with difficulty modified max?

[dusty halo]

I honestly hope we can remove the parry slowdown in the future.

[sonic turret]

Nah, but some of the speed runners have beaten the entire game on UN in just over an hour.

[sterile sage]

It's usually a nightmare difficulty.

[sonic turret]

Xamide beat it on Ultra Nightmare in 3:18.

[dusty halo]

I wonder if ZeroMaster will speedrun or is just kinda done.

[sonic turret]

Daravae did it in about 1:12, but I'm not sure which difficult setting.

[sterile sage]

Have you tried playing with slider max? It was ridiculously difficult

[flint perch]

Honestly I don’t mind the parry slowdown

or maybe I’m weird or something

[dusty halo]

For me it lasts too long.

You're not "weird" it's literally just you.

[flint perch]

https://tenor.com/view/druski-shrug-idk-iono-hands-up-gif-7122581203490458147

[merry sapphire]

so a strong imp? 😂

[dusty halo]

Playing ultrakill the slowdown is very brief and less intrusive versus this where it lasts a little too long and messes up my timings.

[merry sapphire]

i hope we can lower it. i like the slowdown but it gets too much sometimes

[dusty halo]

The Shamblers bashing down would be SO MUCH FUN to experience without slowdown.

[merry sapphire]

love how you can adjust it in ultrakill they should do the same here in this game

[dusty halo]

Ultrakill is good because of the radical behaviour changes. Violent only imrpvoes speed and attacks but brutal completely changes how the enemies attack.

It's actually difficult but there are so many ways you can conversely take advantage of them.

[delicate stirrup]

Yeah it fills the role of an officer-type demon pretty well.

[merry sapphire]

nightmare also changes enemy behavior aside from damage in dark ages. biggest example is some certain attacks/parries would falter the baron but in nightmare it wouldn't

[sinful robin]

yeah a SSD

[violet lynx]

@hard thistle lets move convo to hear

oh, I swear there was a dlc that released with it?

[violet lynx]

nah

[north axle]

I don't think so? at least I don't got one

[hidden pollen]

did you get the collectors edition?

[north axle]

yep

[willow beacon]

No dlc, if you get the premium or collectors you get the dlc when it comes out, it’s not out now though

[hidden pollen]

lucky, I'm like 1/8 of the way to affording it lol

[hidden pollen]

ahh okay I see, I hope I can get the collectors edition soon, is it limited time or nah?

[velvet elbow]

I feel terrible man, I think I scammed someone out of the executioner skin

[willow beacon]

It’s sold out now, you gotta pay for it on eBay or something now at high prices if you want it

[velvet elbow]

Someone offered a code that came with their controller, turns out they didn’t realize it was for the skin and I claimed it before they realized

[hidden pollen]

not for me, on amazon it's still up in stock for £200

[willow beacon]

Then get it as soon as you can cause that probably won’t last

[hard thistle]

Okayyykykyky

[hidden pollen]

I only have £25 rn I need to get money somehow lol

[hard thistle]

Give me £25

[willow beacon]

Go get a job then and make some cash money

[hard thistle]

Ew a j*b

[dusty dagger]

Real

[hard thistle]

🥀🥀🥀🥀

[willow beacon]

J*b application

[rain glen]

I don't know why but I think expedition 33 is what killed doom the dark ages success. Even though dark ages is expensive poop 33 killed this game. I like 33 but I'm never gonna play it because it looks like a silly dollar store final fantasy knock off.

[hard thistle]

Thank you for being unemployed with me

[hidden pollen]

nuh uh

[velvet elbow]

I actually think it was the high spec requirement and the price hike

[rain glen]

Yeah and that as well.

[hidden pollen]

my brother said he knows someone who has jobs open but he hasn't replied back to me yet 😭😭

we are ALL cracking the doomslayer

[willow beacon]

Gl 🙏

[velvet elbow]

I want a job, but I can’t because it’ll take away my money from FASFA

[willow beacon]

I work a good amount and still get a full grant 💀

[velvet elbow]

What do you do for work?

[willow beacon]

It’s really gonna depend on your parents financial situation, amount of siblings, and if any siblings go to college

[rain glen]

This game flopped and we as doom fans and the devs of doom have all taken a massive L people. It's soo Dover.

[dusty dagger]

Oof I was gonna quit my job to focus on college when I start In August but I got fired before that

[hasty vale]

You know what's a GREAT job? Voice actor for the slayer... apparently they hired different guys for different languages :))

[willow beacon]

I work at a camp over summers usually, I could get paid a bit more elsewhere but I get more hours so overall I make more

[willow beacon]

RIP

[dusty dagger]

Get paid 100k to say one word per game

[velvet elbow]

I’ll see what opportunities I have with fasfa

[hidden pollen]

ill need it fr thanks 🙏

[hard thistle]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

[willow beacon]

If you just make a bit of money from a job each year it won’t really affect it

[unreal dagger]

Hi

[velvet elbow]

Like how much is a bit?

[hidden pollen]

NUH UHH

[hard thistle]

WINKLETON PLEASE

[unreal dagger]

Qust compele heard work

[cold patio]

if anyone got steam save with all upgrades please upload it in nexus mods, searching for everything on map is pain, much appreciated.

[hidden pollen]

NUH UHH VIK ITS MINE

[hard thistle]

PLEASE WINKLETON I NEED THIS

[dusty dagger]

If you're 24 or older they stop looking at parents income, they only consider your own. That's why I waited until this year to start so I don't have to deal with my (very shitty) parents asking for their income info

[willow beacon]

I’ve made ~10k without it affecting it but that’s probably because my parents make little enough and I have lots of siblings 💀

[unreal dagger]

Qust compele kaise mare bhai log

[hidden pollen]

SO DO I!!!!

[hard thistle]

my mom is kinda homeless

[willow beacon]

Yea thats important too

[dusty dagger]

Damn I hope she gets help with that

[unreal dagger]

Hello

[willow beacon]

Dang, I hope things can get better for her

[hidden pollen]

SPEED WHY YOU TRYING NOT TO LAUGH BRUH

[north axle]

I 100% everything yet it still says I need to upgrade all the shield and melee stuff for the berserker achievement what do I even do now?

[upbeat topaz]

I got the same bug of health essence, did you find a way to solve it?

[restive shale]

Finally 100%ed the game 😁

[north axle]

you have any trouble popping any of the achievements?

[restive shale]

Nope got all the achievements on my 1st playthrough

[north axle]

lucky i've had to do multiple playthroughs for the one last achievement i need

[restive shale]

Damm hope u'll get it soon tho

[north axle]

same man its so simple too its just the berserker achievement

[restive shale]

Damn yeah I was lucky and had no problems with achievements

Only thing that happened to me (which I don't know if it was a bug or intended) was that when I played through the game on Ultra Nightmare I didn't get the Pandemonium milestone so I had to complete it a 3rd time but on Pandemonium for that lol

[north axle]

probably intended

[restive shale]

But now I'm gonna start a 4th playthrough but this time literally all in gold lol 😂

I'm not crazy I promise 🤪

[north axle]

i cant wait to do that same thing once i figure out my achievement problem

[restive shale]

Yeah I would probably wait for a patch or something tho

[north axle]

true

[restive shale]

I'm sad that you can't get the gold skin on one of the weapons tho

[north axle]

what weapon?

[restive shale]

||BFC||

[north axle]

true

completely forgot about it

[restive shale]

I wish u could upgrade it too but that would probably be too op lol 😂

[north axle]

yeah true but still would have been cool if there was a mastery quest for it so you could get it gold

[restive shale]

||btw my friend got disappointed when he got the BFC and realized that the BFG wouldn't be in the game bc of that (I mean i did a bit too)||

[lilac portal]

hii

[restive shale]

Yes

[amber wren]

bro ive had to do chapter 4 three times ive glitced through the floor twice and then i cleared it and it completely erased my progress this pandemonium run is already getting to me

[restive shale]

Hello

[amber wren]

thank god this is on gamepass id be crashing out if i spent 100 on this

[mild loom]

can we all agree that doom guy is increidbly handsome

[mild loom]

[lament basin]

anyone wanna hop on a call while we slay ?

[mild loom]

id love to, but i have an exam in 2 hours

[lament basin]

real brother GL !

[barren warren]

i just wish they kept his hair the same color as his classic sprite

[mild loom]

same, it would be off tho since eternal kinda has dark hair too

[frank harness]

The party system did hell knights dirty ngl

I still remember losing to my very first UN run to a hell night slam attack in Eternal

[mighty glen]

I think they should add a map editor, I'm curious what people would do with Doom The Dark Ages

[frank harness]

And now pretty much all of his attacks are parriable and barely poses a threat

[velvet elbow]

Why do PC parts gotta be so expensive…

[amber wren]

rare loot

[mild loom]

the market suckls rn

[velvet elbow]

I’ve gone so low i’m checking Facebook marketplace

[rain glen]

I wonder if the game gets backlash do you think they'll change the price from 70 to lower. I think that could get more players playing the game.

[velvet elbow]

It probably will

[rain glen]

If some one doesn't do something somepeople are gonna be going to id hq and do something dangerous

[somber sail]

Has there been any word on a potential patch for the beserk achievement/trophy?

[waxen oriole]

If I replay a mission just for a collectible or gold, as soon as I get it can I leave with my progress or will it be lost

[velvet elbow]

Sit tight and hope, they don’t tell us about patches

[velvet elbow]

You can leave, all good

[somber sail]

Yeah you can just leave it’s fine

[waxen oriole]

🙏 thank god

[velvet elbow]

Any of y’all have PC parts you don’t want?

[waxen oriole]

Missed one codex in one mission, and that flying one with the ships I missed some gold somewhere

[somber sail]

I’m really hoping🥲I am honestly not finishing the game until they fix it seems petty but I’m not gonna have it 100%’d and then not get given it. I’m not restarting and wiping my data either didn’t pay £100 to play the game early to do it all again.

[north axle]

been having that same problem

[somber sail]

People have reported getting it when in level 15 nowhere near the achievement. So it’s definitely bugged on either side. I love the game so much just such a bummer that’s happened

[north axle]

yeah its the very last achievement I need too :/

[velvet elbow]

Same man

[north axle]

gonna give it another shot to see if I can get it by only upgrading what I need

[barren warren]

eternal should have had the lighter hair too, no idea why they made it so dark

[mild loom]

idk, maybe he got his hair dyed after spending LITERALLY billions of years in hell

[barren warren]

dyed with demon blood i guess

[mild loom]

yknow just maybe yeah

[earnest swift]

It’s best to upgrade nothing and get all the relevant upgrades for the achievement at once. That requires 3,750 Gold and 9 Rubies.

[sand sedge]

lol fell out of bounds - dropped over 630km and still falling 😄

[north axle]

that helps knowing exactly how much i need

[rain glen]

I feel the major problem here with the games sales under performing is this game is basically going back to its doom 1993 routs with no multiplayer. The problem is most players don't want that 1993 style they want eternal style and they want to add more stuff to the game.

[sonic turret]

Did anyone get the skin from the pizza place yet?

[sonic turret]

Doom 1993 had multiplayer LAN Deathmatches.

[rain glen]

Oh yeah it did.

Well in that case maybe they'll pull a cyberpunk and add the stuff we want.

[sonic turret]

TDA doesn't because they wanted to work on fleshing out the campaign and it's possible that they might be working on another multiplayer game that they don't want a conflict of interest with, perhaps a Quake 3 Arena/Champions followup.

[rain glen]

Ohh.

[amber wren]

people dont want to pay 80 for a campaign game they can get for 10 bucks on gamepass simple as

xbox probably has the lion's share of players

[burnt moss]

is the berserker achievement broken for anyone else on ps5

[amber wren]

and i dont think theres a way to get player count from them

[burnt moss]

fucking sick to death of broken achievements in doom games this always happens

[amber wren]

people were just talking about it being broken so i assume its finicky

[burnt moss]

it aint finicky it just straight up doesnt give you the achievement for doing what it says

[amber wren]

ok

[sonic turret]

Initially, Eternal never had a Deathmatch mode, and we were suspecting that it was because id wanted people to keep playing Quake Champions, as Deathmatch is an id staple that they themselves coined. Eternal did however have some other multiplayer stuff though. Either way, I was hoping that given Machine Games involment with the classic Quake add ons and the easter egg in the teaser, that they'd landed the contract to develop the next Quake title, but nothing has materialised thus far. @rain glen

[burnt moss]

someone said to replay the whole campaign but unlock all the upgrades all at once and allegedly that works

[barren warren]

i still remember when the argentas paladi milestone in eternal (get all other milestones) was so bugged that it either never unlocked or unlocked too early

i had to complete the campaign from scratch again just to get it

[burnt moss]

for me the gunpletionist achievement in eternal was completely busted

id software try to make a doom game with less than 3 broken milestones (they cant fucking do it)

[earnest swift]

Honestly being able to provide that was a big reason I elected to do a partial speedrun to get that done and over with.

[barren warren]

whiplash bugs and broken weapon mastery milestones will be a series staple

[earnest swift]

Nah. That’s No Target and BP not working.

[barren warren]

i feel like both of those issues are now present in the melee system

[split gate]

Fellas I finished the game and I’m here to tell you it was a blast, I need time to process everything

[earnest swift]

In this game?

[barren warren]

yep

[earnest swift]

lmfao

[barren warren]

occasionally my melee strike will do the animation but not hit anything

or target a completely different enemy than the one i want

[loud gulch]

u gotta try maxed out power gauntlet, its so op and you can get 6 melee strikes on super heavies

pg+lightning shield rune

[viral phoenix]

yo guys, i got a redeem code if yall want

one from nvidia

[split gate]

Gotcha chief

[loud gulch]

dm

[split gate]

God this game is absolutely a blast, I’m shocked at the amount of negativity I see in internet, I went in limiting every bias I could and I genuinely had a fun time, I think it’s the best new Doom they’ve made

[lament grove]

Honestly

[split gate]

Most of the harshest negative reviews I’ve seen don’t make a lick of sense, the game is not trying to be like Eternal, if any thing, it still feels fast because of the decision making you have to do

[lament grove]

Especially those moments where you genuinely lock in and perform these huge combos on multiple demons, glory kill to glory kill with no awkward spacing between it

[split gate]

The music is perfect, just as good as Mick’s, in my opinion. Mick is Mick and FM is FM and both composers crushed it

[loud gulch]

most of their arguments are about mick too. like move the fuck on, its been 4 years and finishing moves ost isnt even that bad. its actually quite better than eternal. Unholy siege SLAPS and the main menu hits harder than both eternal and 2016

[honest vortex]

DOOM: The Dark Ages honestly feels a bit like the new Shadow Warrior games with the crazy cool melee combat you can do.

[honest vortex]

It's nice to have a AAA FPS with crazy melee combat for a change

[split gate]

Preach. The more I listen to it, the more I see that FM isn’t even trying to copy Mick at all. People are heavily biased and they don’t see it. This game is a perfect example of how bias can influence one’s opinion

[honest vortex]

Also tbh some of the environments in Dark Ages reminds me a bit of Shadow Warrior 2 and 3.

The forest levels reminds me of the Shadow Warrior 3 forest levels.

[waxen oriole]

Finally found what I missed in mission 5 😩 was just some gold underneath one of the secret areas I forgot before

Do you get enough resources to max out every weapon in one playthrough?

[honest vortex]

Also the death from above shield saw glory kills as well as Demonic Essence glory kill animations are very similar to Shadow Warrior 3's glory kill animations

[loud gulch]

literally. the doom community literally titled mick as an "argent metal artist" which is kinda like metal mixed with electronic elements n shit, fm just tryna make it normal metal 💔

[waxen oriole]

What’s shadow warrior like? Never heard of it before but might be a shout for a game to play

[spice ridge]

Dark Ages is really bugging my OCD right now. If you miss a collectible and then replay a level to collect it, it's not in the right order. I missed the codex for level 1 and when I replayed it to 100% it, it was way below level 2's codex. Ugh 😭

[split gate]

Anyone who’s a Doom fan for long enough can see that this ost is focusing on honoring the classic roots. The ost felt like a Classic Doom game in a sense.

[waxen oriole]

Oh swear? I missed a codex as well on level 4 and it did my head in

Sentinel barracks is now below siege your right

[loud gulch]

EXACTLY.

[spice ridge]

Yeah. Same thing happens to the toys as well

[honest vortex]

They're kinda like DOOM, but not at the same time.

Shadow Warrior 3 in particular took big inspiration from DOOM Eternal

But they're extremely goofy and over the top, but also very beautiful and fun.

Also much like the new DOOM trilogy, the Shadow Warrior reboot trilogy games are all very different from each other.

Hell the first Shadow Warrior reboot isn't even like DOOM in the slightest

[loud gulch]

tda just gave me a more doom vibe than the other 2 in the trilogy

[spice ridge]

If you miss them and then collect them, they go out of order

[waxen oriole]

Bet sounds good imma check it out

[split gate]

It feels so weird having this opinion and you see in the internet so much negativity. But then again, the minority speak the loudest

[waxen oriole]

I haven’t missed any toys yet 🙏 only missed codex in level 4 and a bit of gold in level 5

[split gate]

Like a third eye opened or sum shi

[loud gulch]

hey, bad opinions get the most publicity if you think about it. usually people who have no clue what theyre talking about for most of the times.

[honest vortex]

There were many songs during the second half of the game where I went; "WTF this music is fucking awesome. I low-key like this more than any Eternal song"

Everyone's like "the music is fine " , "the music is generic and average", and I'm like WTF how?

[split gate]

Or when people say it sounds samey for each level. Did we hear the same ost? Level 2’s ost feel heavy and mechanical yet futuristic and the hell levels really has those guitar riffs, and the cosmic levels feel so otherworldly

[loud gulch]

i can list alot of the songs but my top 3 from fm are
unholy siege
when the shadows first lengthened
infernal chasm

[split saddle]

MR BEAAAST

[loud gulch]

the music is FAR, and i mean FAAAARR from average.

[honest vortex]

Cosmic Realm had the most atmospheric ambient music, and some of the heaviest craziest metal in the series

[split gate]

Unfortunately this is the case my friend, I hope in time people will change what they think, this game is worthy of GOTY imo

[honest vortex]

Also a lot of the bass lines go insane. Way better than most of Mick Gordon's basslines

[mental gate]

expedition 33 came out this year lol. Love the game but its a wash

[split gate]

MR BLMAO YOU WON 1 MILLION GOLD TO SPEND ON THE SLAYER’S UPGRADES

[honest vortex]

All three amazing songs

[loud gulch]

hopefully.

unholy siege goes so fucking hard tho.

[split gate]

Oh I have to play that turn based combat is kind of my thing

[honest vortex]

One of my favorite songs is the song that plays here:
https://youtu.be/NdeSho21LXc?si=bkfrtNzHWZY0YKjE

God tier song

[split gate]

When the game played Blood Red for the first time, I genuinely stood up and started head banging

[loud gulch]

the song that plays in the bfc arena is actually so good too, like they COOKED AND SERVED

[honest vortex]

I tried listening to Eternal OST after this, and the only song I liked similarly to some of Dark Ages best songs is Gladiator

[split gate]

Eternal’s OST is amazing but TDA scratched that traditional guitar itch for me, I’m a big fan of that stuff

[loud gulch]

is it just me or do i find that eternals and 2016s songs are repetitive?

[honest vortex]

There's a song in that same level where it's the intro theme for you know which game but used as a combat theme, and it's incredible

[loud gulch]

on eternal we have meathook bfg 10k tottfiy and others, they sound the exact same

[honest vortex]

Not intro, main menu theme I meant

[viral phoenix]

idk if u saw already

[earnest swift]

"TDA" I find to be the one obnoxiously repetitive OST of the bunch.

[honest vortex]

One of the most worshipped Eternal songs is Meathook.

But I think that song is extremely boring.

I don't understand the hype

[loud gulch]

i forgot sry

[split gate]

I sometimes feel this too, idk if anyone feels the same way, but the music in TDA is implemented in a different way, I can’t put my finger on it. Like when you get the weapon in first hell level and the way the song lines up with you reading the tutorial before testing out the weapon fit perfectly. I’ve never seen that from 2016 or Eternal

[honest vortex]

Meathook also sounds like a watered down inferior super repetitive version of The Only Thing They Fear is You

[honest vortex]

More so Eternal for me.

2016 was a lot more experimental, industrial, heavier, and more dynamic than Eternal's.

But yeah Eternal's soundtrack is super repetitive

[empty ridge]

My only complain about TDA is the story, codex, and the lack of harbor of souls zombie variants and more cosmic realm enemies?

[honest vortex]

I also think Meathook feels like it's trying to be much heavier and more impressive than it actually is

I can't explain it

[empty ridge]

But it doesn't really matter

[loud gulch]

yep. in one level i had to listen to totfiy and the next level it was meathook

i genuinely didnt know it switched the song until i heard it closer

[split gate]

My personal take is TDA = 2016 > Eternal for ost

I think 2016 is a perfect ost and TDA did the same and both outshine Eternal

[loud gulch]

personally i dont get the eternal ost dickriding. its abit too much ykwim

[split gate]

But BFG Division was so overplayed in 2016, we had some banger tracks like Harbinger or Flesh and Metal that had great riffs that should have been implemented more

[split gate]

Definitely, I see it a lot

[honest vortex]

Might be the same list for me.

But I'm also burnt out from Eternal's soundtrack beyond belief.

I used to love The Only Thing They Fear is You, as well as the Gladiator.

But I don't even like those songs at all anymore

[earnest swift]

Harbinger is glorious.

[loud gulch]

throughout my playthrough of 2016 x3 i barely heard harbinger. i probably heard it for about 5 or 6 times throughout my 3 playthroughs of the game.

[earnest swift]

Like how meme circles made It Has to be This Way a miserable song to listen to?

[split gate]

That’s how I feel nowadays, but of course that could be because we played it again and again

[honest vortex]

I don't even think Eternal's OST is as good as a lot of those cool ass MIDIs from Classic DOOM fan made Megawads

[split gate]

Harbinger is such a banger, but I wish it just chugged for more and had more variety if that makes sense, instead of waiting for 3 drops

[split gate]

I hear it in Argent Facility

[honest vortex]

Yeah BFG Division is overrated. It's also waaaay more repetitive than 2016's other songs.

Rust, Dust, and Guts, Harbinger, Damnation, Hell choirs, Rip and Tear game rip version, Flesh and Metal, and VEGA Core are all way better than BFG Division

[split gate]

Like with FM’s ost what I’ve seen is that most of the songs chugs along, so the entire track feels like a non stop rip sesh.

[honest vortex]

I like BFG Division though. But it's not the best 2016 song

[split gate]

I listen to James Paddock’s soundtracks from time to time, they’re amazing,

[honest vortex]

True. Also Eviternity and Ancient Aliens has amazing music

[errant mason]

Jimmy is the goat

[split gate]

My fav is the BTSX osts, absolute masterpieces

[honest vortex]

Back to Saturn X Episode 2, I think was the first Custom WAD I got into

[split gate]

But yes I’m keeping a close eye on FM for the DLC tracks now, maybe they’ll take the feedback and improve even more, can’t wait

[honest vortex]

Something I will say is TDA soundtrack is a bit uneven. Inconsistent even.

But it has absurdly high peaks, especially in the second half of the game

The peaks make up for the inconsistency IMO

[north leaf]

so glad i missed out on the meme crap about that game, played it in 2022 or something without knowing its an "internet game" and fell in love with it

[split gate]

Same I played it years before it became what it is, I was shocked to see it blow up all of a sudden

[north leaf]

it was a streamer chain effect i guess

during covid a lot of streamer culture boomed

[honest vortex]

My all time favorite track from modern DOOM is probably either Flesh and Metal or VEGA Core.

[honest vortex]

Meanwhile some songs I don't even understand WHY they became super overplayed, like Meathook.

Even when DOOM Eternal was fresh, I thought Meathook was a mediocre song

[plain iron]

I lowkey think it's a lot of folk who don't listen to metal a lot constantly glazing it for being super heavy or some bullshit 💀

[hushed geode]

Yo, will we get a 120fps mode on dark ages for next gen consoles?

[north leaf]

i cant be the only one who thinks something with the mix of the game is wrong. listening to the youtube uploads of the tracks they sound fine, in game the guitars sound extremely thin. i thought this might be due to game sound compressing the (already) compressed guitar sound, it sounds like milk carton speakers. and i dont mean this in similar way to eternal's mixing, i mean the guitars are way too trebley

[plain iron]

THATS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING

[somber sail]

No you cannot just replay the game. You have to totally wipe your save data to remove that you’ve even earned the trophies AND to remove the milestones. As berserker is a milestone it will be ticked and completed already. So no you can’t start a new run as milestones count for all runs. These people who did this were the ones who didn’t play it early and got to hear about it in advance. I played it the moment the game launched so essentially I was cooked from the very first minute😁🥲

[uneven dragon]

TAG 1, 2 and TDA have absolutely fucked mixing and I have no clue why

[north leaf]

personally i love it, it has some cool mixing tricks like the metal clinking added to one part of the riff, and its also well produced 8 string metal, im just a fan tbh lol

[somber sail]

Yeah the music is dog water this game compared to the last and the trophy being bugged again. It’s not a 5 or a 10 for me that’s for sure. Worst music in a doom I’ve ever seen utilised. Can’t even hear it ever.

[plain iron]

Ive always found DE's soundtrack far too weak, lack of substance

[split gate]

I have to agree, I’ve been noticing it too

[north leaf]

i dont remember TAG sounding so thin in terms of the guitars ingame, in fact the guitars in TAG iirc sound pretty meaty

[uneven dragon]

TAG is fucked in a different way tbh

[north leaf]

hulshult mixes his guitars differently i guess

[split gate]

Which is unfortunate because the official ost is fantastic

[plain iron]

Hulshult is great

[uneven dragon]

Meathook is fucking fire 😭

[north leaf]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDQzz8e1N2Y blew my mind in 2020 and still the best track from the ost

[loud gulch]

DOOM THE RAYTRACING AGES

[waxen oriole]

Man I missed one gold on level 7 wtf

[loud gulch]

LMFAO

[uneven dragon]

i do love how super gore nest sounds

[waxen oriole]

I can’t even see which one I missed on the map

[split gate]

The E3? Showcase of the Phobos mission in Eternal had this banger of a soundtrack and I was bummed to not even hear it in the game

[uneven dragon]

perfectly fits the vibe of the level (though tbh i really wish TSGN (the level) was made more horror-ish in execution :P)

[waxen oriole]

Also missed a secret because I didn’t bother trying to get an extra life as I already have 3/3

[uneven dragon]

Arriving On Mars? yeah that cut got cause that segment got cut

2 whole seconds of it play when the doom hunter is introduced..

[split gate]

Like the song that BFG 10,000 replaced, I think?

[uneven dragon]

do u mean the one thats a remix of the doom 3 intro....?

[waxen oriole]

How much harder is nightmare than ultra violence?

[uneven dragon]

OH WAIT NO THAT OTHER ONE yeah that one is lost forever

[split gate]

Someone put an extended version of it in Youtube called the Slaughter

[north leaf]

its probably the heaviest track on the ost, just from the breakdown

[junior sphinx]

Yope, anyones game crashing on part 3?

[north leaf]

https://youtu.be/xbDvYR4UTEs?t=5669 my favorite riff from TDA, deserves better guitar mixing for sure

sounds actually decent on youtube, i swear im gonna turn all sound off to check ingame if im not insane and imagining the weird treble boost in my head

[junior sphinx]

anybodys game crashing when they are on part 3?!

[uneven dragon]

i love when i paste too early :P

[uneven dragon]

i think tda is the only nudoom game that didnt crash for me..

lucky, ive just crashed 3 times in the space of 3 mins, was running perfect till i got in the titan thing

5mins*

no forums anymore to report bugs or to read other problems? tried gettin on them and just got sent to discord, pretty st range

I got this game yesterday god the optimisation sucks

60fps on a 7800xt 💔

[junior sphinx]

yeah i find it stupid that you cant change graphics and just have to set to what fps you want, kinda re--tarded to be honest but could be worse, you could be a quake fan and have these people put out fuake chumpions

bethesda kills good, long running titles with stupid ideas they steal from other games

i think my favourite track in each doom game's soundtracks would be,,
Doom - Sign of Evil
Doom 2 - Running From Evil
Final Doom - Legion of the Lost
Doom 64 - Lamentation of the Forgotten
Doom 3 - Doom 3 Theme
Resurrection of Evil - Erebus
Doom (2016) - Mastermind
Sigil - Hate Machine
Doom Eternal - The Only Thing They Fear Is You (basic I know)
The Ancient Gods 1 - Blood Swamps
The Ancient Gods 2 - Immora
Mighty Doom - Circe De Slay
Sigil 2 - Evil Dead (Extended)
Legacy of Rust - They're All Going To Laugh At You
The Dark Ages - Unholy Siege

tbf it's sort of hard to optimise raytracing

[rustic arch]

yeah, especially when doom 2016 and eternal had amazing optimization and didnt force ray tracing

Like doom eternal had a nintendo switch port

the game is really fun tho, im enjoying it more than any of the other doom games so far. Im only on the first level

[junior sphinx]

i was enjoying it, its just brains off entertainment and its a really easy game to be honest, seems too short... but i keep crashing on part 3

[rustic arch]

I agree with the difficulty, im breezing through ultra violence where as in eternal i had to play in too young to die cus it was too hard on a first playthrough

[junior sphinx]

ah well, shouldnt use it if its going to somewhat ruin the game for the players

[rustic arch]

Doesnt it have 22 chapters? Thats a lot no?

[junior sphinx]

oh, i have no idea :D only see 4 on the screen but you can finish each one with like 20% done, so you can fly through them and wouldnt take long

took me several days without speedrunning
