It won't be able to run without a ray tracing card

does anyone know about a website that you can see if you can run a game?

but like we said, tda wont run unless u have an RT card

how about the CPU? can you run tda with a I7-4770K

harsh egret
#

for tda

like a new CPU and GPU?

entirely new pc

Gotta be SSD for TDA

i mean storage u can reuse just fine from what i know

It's in SE Asia so hell yeah

did you know markiplier is in doom eternal

harsh egret
#

hello everybody my name is Markiplier

plush talon
#

no way!

harsh egret
#

no but yeah I hope to see Mark play through TDA

#

now that he's done with the movie and allat

plush talon
#

me two

hazy pasture
#

Or maybe he needs to be reminded cuz he tends to forget stuff

harsh egret
#

surely he doesnt forget about doom doomguy_dead

slender night
#

Idk Jacksepticeye said he doesn't want to play a game he literally voice acted for just cuz it was too far from release

plush talon
#

he's dad showed him doom

slender night
#

Maybe Mark has the same mindset

frosty roost
#

I know jacksepticeye played half of TDA, just wished he continued the series

harsh egret
#

leaves tda to play and finish ds2 doomcry

#

i think i forgot but idk

#

I dont think it was Mark, i think it was Andrew Hulshult

This game is so damn good. Finished the two hell levels earlier yesterday and now back at the sentinal base. Unfortunately no time to play again til later this week

DOOM: The Dark Ages - Less Like Hexen This Time

idle swallow
#

idk why but I find TDA Pinkies to be more of a delight to slaughter than the Pinkies from other Doom games

If i could have a cent for every time "Sentinel" is misspelt I'd have enough money to buy myself a new handheld PC

DOOM A Turtle

and also riding on a reptile

although I guess you also did that in Ancient Gods...

ocean ore
#

TDA could have been called DOOM Sentinel or Night Sentinels. Doom The Dark Ages is kind of an awkward title

slender night
#

I think it's fine

foggy jasper
#

It fits the theme and works well

#

Plus Doom The Dark Ages sounds cooler

hazy pasture

#

I like how TDA mostly allows you to use only the weapons you WANT to use like in Doom 2016

#

I'm using just the super shotgun a lot of the time and it's working well, very fun

foggy jasper
#

Same here, I basically just used the Chainshot and SSG the whole game (I also used the Impaler from time to time)

idle swallow
#

I feel like TDA's gameplay loop is a perfect balance. it's not very simple like 2016, but also not bloated with a lot of mechanics to keep track of like Eternal either

They’re so goddamn insufferable in that game

will owners of the Premium Edition get the campaign dlc for free? I heard of that being the case

Very interesting

#

Instead of waiting 2-3 months for a map to bake they got to see it instantly too, so development was greatly sped up

#

Also Each map being 4-10x bigger then Eternal's map helps that

foggy jasper
#

So they cranked the temperature of the oven up to make it bake faster

obsidian shard
#

OR

wow they really put cthulhu squids in the game

Lossless Scaling is the biggest cheat code to play the game on Steam Deck.

#

Set the game settings all the way down, cut the resolution down to 480p (With scaling filter on sharp), and then turn on Lossless Scaling frame gen at 2X, and now you get smooth performance.

Chat. It was confirmed that in doom the dark ages DLC there will be a new secret weapon.

I find it obvious tho what place this weapon will have.

#

I mean. It's the only weapon that they don't give you in the main game.

Could it be because I only have 8gb of ram?

when are we getting doom tda dlc?

It's a alternate version of that

#

HOLY ID SUCK

#

yeah lets keep tuning the campaigns spawns and tweak balancing instead of masters levels

#

now its looking like we are getting gta 6 before the dlc's

random sand
iron cedar
#

That's what im saying

split gate
#

Ripatorium is neat but wish there was more besides that

#

But at the same time, they’re cooking for DLC, it’s gonna be big

sterile pond
#

all i know is, i played doom 2016 and eternal in 2024 and loved them so i wanted to support the developers on my first launch title and i must say my impression is a disappointing product that lacks multiple modes on release which is a given for developers around late 2000's to early 2010's

split gate
#

Yep, the campaign is solid but it should not be the only mode at launch

#

Difficulty changes don’t count either, there should’ve been Riptaorium at launch at least to make up no multiplayer

sterile pond
#

they really lack creative depth outside of campaigns i feel, like atleast make a pve mode where its 4p coop with sentinel knights fighting demons around doom guys wake, like i swear it makes no sense that dev teams play it so safe for over a decade now

#

DO SOMETHING!

fleet spruce
#

couldn't care less about coop personally 👍

sterile pond
split gate
#

They know what they’re good at, and we play their games because of it

#

Like if I have endless horde mode with increasing difficulty of enemies, and change in arenas without the gimmicks Eternal’s one had, I’m a happy man

thorny patio
#

a infinite arena in doom would be peak

#

like ultrakills cybergrind if yk

fleet spruce
#

both 2016 and Eternal had poor multiplayer reception overall too so it's not a surprise at all that they removed it entirely with Dark Ages

thorny patio
#

A dark ages multiplayer where you can parry other players would be so fun

fleet spruce
#

I enjoy 2016 multiplayer but battlemode never got me interested despite pretty cool concept

thorny patio
#

Wait for tda multiplayer what if you can play as the night sentinels vs the demons

fleet spruce
#

TDA having multiplayer is simply unrealistic at this point lol

split gate
harsh egret
#

I just think theres so many multiplayer games nowadays that to make a new one that properly stands out and makes people wanna play that instead of what they already play is very hard

#

And not having MP means they can focus on making their singleplayer content higher in quality

#

And imo and seemingly its not only me who thinks this, eternal's side content outside of some of the master levels werent that great

#

I sometimes feel that game tried to do too many things and all of them at once

#

And now when they are focusing on different things at a time in order to make sure they release them in a better state its somehow a bad thing in some ppls minds

random sand
#

I'd say ditching the MP with TDA is a good thing. Not only as you said, they can focus on improving the singleplayer experience even more, but also, Eternal's MP from what i've seen is dead as hell. Which would be the fate of MP here as well

harsh egret
#

Eternal's MP is kinda cool on paper but not really that appealing to that many ppl

Just a copy of cybergrind, it’s pretty cool

How wise is it to play ts for the first time on Nightmare

random sand
fading bone
#

or make plenty of mistakes and learn from them because dying in a video game is ok

random sand
#

well ideally you don't wanna make mistakes and actually progress but if you do make mistakes then you should learn from them yeah

fading bone
#

you cant progress without making mistakes

random sand
#

i played nightmare on my first run and died maybe twice in the whole run. you can absolutely progress without making mistakes. but learning from mistakes works too

fading bone
#

even if you dont die theres moments where you make mistakes that you passively learn from

#

you didnt just play perfectly from the beginning. you were actively playing and making some mistakes and learning from them to do better later

random sand
#

i don't remember making that many mistakes. i made mistakes in 2016 and eternal but idk about TDA. maybe i made a few

fading bone
#

i guess you're just one of the best players in the game then. good job

random sand
#

i guess so

green estuary
#

TDA nightmare isn’t that hard unfortunately

#

Bit sad innit

ashen bobcat
#

When people say that it gets even more confusing for me because I already find these games pretty difficult like Eternal on Hurt Me Plenty killed me a lot

meager vortex
#

nah this game is easy

ashen bobcat
#

But that also might be the hardest modern DOOM game so I don't know how to gauge

willow beacon
#

I think eternal was the hardest for a lot of people

ionic glade
# ashen bobcat How wise is it to play ts for the first time on Nightmare

First playthrough might get rough at points, just depends on how quick you pick up the mechanics. Just make good use of melee as it’s very strong in this game. That was my biggest mistake on my very first run which was also on Nightmare (along with not using shield throw enough). Granted I played on the game on release so they’ve beefed encounters up here and there since but nothing too crazy. I think you’ll be fine on Nightmare

#

Part of my problem too were my reflexes and mindset from Eternal were interfering a lot

alpine pilot
#

I've never played below nightmare. Died plenty of times but finished the campaign/ripatorium satisfied doomguy_neutral

#

unless you only count very large mistakes as mistakes, it's impossible

random sand
#

a skilled enough player makes little to no mistakes. those they do make rarely matter

frail bloom
#

Nah it should be "know how to get out of a mistake" and you're fine

wheat sigil
#

yea mistakes will always be in your gameplay, the severity of them just decreases

fossil fog
wheat sigil
#

cause otherwise you'd never die..

warm ibex
frail bloom
#

Yup

heady trout
#

being skilled is having the ability to adapt

#

sometimes you need the skill bc u made a mistake

warm ibex
#

exactly

heady trout
#

there's no such thing as a flawless UN run, it's all about encountering your flaws as a player and being good enough to fix them and so on and so fourth

heady trout
green estuary
#

Well actually it’s devo, not me lol

heady trout
#

oh wait i remember this

#

the idea of no damage is ludicrous in doom bc like the Slayer while powerful is KNOWN to take many hits, its his ability to recover and keep fighting thats awesome

#

no damage makes the Slayer seem like a paper mache cannon

green estuary
#

Well in 2016 he’s basically the definition of a glass cannon tbf

heady trout
#

but respect for the grind regardless

heady trout

#

Even with all your health and armor upgrades, just a couple hits and you’re at critical health

sterile pond
crude sparrow
#

I can run it at 150 fps now with basically no issues

#

Yeah I can see some artifacting near the hud but I can overlook that mostly

#

"biggest" issue for me was the input lag which takes some getting used to

frail bloom
#

Do you just play at max sliders? Any modifiers you've added on, like double jump? Or air control?

#

Some few ppl play on max sliders but they might add a couple things to balance it out

#

Like what's mentioned before, or omni sprint

green estuary
#

Speaking of max sliders, a dude actually UNed the game on max sliders current patch

#

Very impressive

frail bloom
#

Ik dude

#

Very high achievement

#

Prob one of the hardest Doom challenges ever

#

Ppl should congatulate this stuff more

willow beacon
#

He said he had 1700 hours in the game, that took forever to beat it

Such an astonishing achievement

Cool beans

#

also anyone who subscribes to the theory that the TDA dlc will be revealed at a dedicated gaming event might wanna keep an eye on tomorrow's playstation state of play

frail bloom
#

Well good thing I cancelled the subscription

warm ibex

lol

I don't think it will be, but if anyone wants to huff hopium for the next 24 hours, there you go

february 12th is all i'll say

#

if hato worked for id he'd know the date is february 14th (they know doom fans won't be busy)

no... i wont...

green estuary
#

interesting

warm ibex
#

March 10th and May 7th is all I'm saying

frail bloom
#

That negativity convo was very true btw

green estuary
#

early may is actually quite a reasonable dlc drop date tbh

frail bloom
#

On stream

I was called dumb and soulless by two other ppl bc I differed in my opinion

Whats with those dates?

#

cuz mayo decided to stream on the night i slept at a normal time

frail bloom
#

I can't speak

#

Or text in this case

frail bloom
#

Seems okay-ish

#

But there's a chance they take a bit more time

harsh egret
#

internally they still have the year one pass deadline Archie

frail bloom
#

You funny guy

harsh egret
#

(i hope not)

frail bloom
#

I don't think the year one pass was the issue

harsh egret
#

also the 60 minute state of play is exactly an hour before the Hugo stream ultrakappa

frail bloom
#

But

harsh egret
#

interesting

frail bloom
#

More than a year would be beneficial

warm ibex
#

I would imagine dlc dev started several months before the game itself released, and I also can't imagine they'd spend more than a year and a half on a post launch expansion. so may - august sounds reasonable to me

frail bloom
#

Spring to summer

Atleast where I live

if the dlc launches in july im gonna be devastated

they wouldn't add anything

They rotate it seems

Based on what preset spawns id set

actually add azhrak and kreed into the ripatorium as well

You can't just immediately kill the lost souls, they can easily set a work around

My man. I'm sorry but we've almost gone a year without anything. The more we have to wait, the more people (or at least I) will expect from this dlc. Like atp i'm expecting a DLC that rivals fucking Phantom Liberty with how much time they're spending on it😭

I thought the whole issue was that they were making us wait too long after release date to drop the dlc? I didn’t gather from what you were saying that the problem was that they were taking too long to work on the thing

I have a question why people hate dragons in nu doom as a concept? But for some reason many people forgot that since Doom 3 we had a dragon-like demon in DLC. And we have kinda gothic medieval-esque hell was still in classic Doom. I'm not even saying that hell and demons are pure sci-fi.

people hate the dragons?

i thought they just hate the dragon levels in TDA because its fairly 1 dimensional. ive never seen someone say they hate the concept of dragons in the doom universe

I do kinda miss the UAC but this is the sort of thing that keeps a long-running franchise feeling fresh
plus, I think it's only fair when a new team gets to make something as iconic as Doom they get to leave their own mark on it

you do have to balance what the audience is here for with what the creator thinks is cool, otherwise you end up with a passionless project

Eternal itself is just 2016 formula pushed to its absolute limits

#

I was thinking it will be funny in the DLC if it turns out the Slayer knew about the Khan Maykr's deal with Hell before Eternal

#

because then that means all of Samuel's expository dialogue in the last act of Eternal was really just the high-and-mighty Seraphim going on a random rant about Maykr politics

yeah that's what I loved about Eternal, it took all the incidental bits of gameplay I liked from 2016 and built the actual challenge around them

I think the DLC will end when they discover the deal

In part 11 of Sentinels, it is mentioned that the deal was discovered on a mission where the Order of the Six resides.

"Yet as the Slayer and Night Sentinels battled the demonic host, their failure to act outside the confines of their duty allowed the rancor of the Essence to grip the Argenta.

It was on a mission deep within the boiling seas of the nether realm, where the Order of the Six reside, that a company of Night Sentinels learned of the Khan Maykr's true dealings with the callous beasts."

there was one thing kinda related to that that I was wondering

#

nothing important, just a curiosity
'cause I think Ancient Gods was being developed at the same time as Dark Ages was starting, and I remember Hugo saying on one of the streams that the armoured barons were a sort of test for the armour system in Dark Ages
and I'd started wondering if the Stone Imps were originally conceived for this game and then back-ported to Eternal

warm ibex

they'll probably post the listing on the zenimax jobs site if nothing comes of Bao's post

# harsh egret why would it be not good

Look, I have high hopes for the DLC, I think we'll see some great DLC.
But the later it's released, especially if it's in the summer, the more hype people have for it will be lost. Also, since updates like Master Levels are postponed until after the DLC release, I think it's better to release it sooner.

harsh egret
#

well we dont know if they are postponed

hazy pasture
#

TDA enthusiasts can be patient I believe so

and there would be more hype if its really good but released later compared to releasing when its not quite ready

but either way i dont think its too long until we hear smth about it

It’s probably nothing, but there’s a sentence in this article that gives me pause: “And with additional content dropping for DOOM: The Dark Ages on May 15…”

May 15 is when we got the base game last year, but with how the article is worded, it sounds like that’s also the DLC’s release date? I doubt it’s anything to get excited about though because the article is probably written by AI, and as a result pulled information out of its robotic tush. I also doubt that a gaming journalism company would have exclusive info on the development of the DLC. Worth keeping an open mind though
