considering that it’s made for powerful machines

not sure why they cut valuable effects for example

Sinners out there with duct tape

vernal crest
#

Then you'd be better with playing the ducktape mod if it's the sole reason you're playing the BFG Edition

#

Although with all the cheats game offers, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a cheat that basically does the same thing

cursive gulch
#

We always blame mars for the lack of duct tape but the real issue is the abhorrently small amounts of lighting

#

The marines wouldnt have to resort to fighting hell spawns with a flashlight if mars just simply installed more lights

When you hit "new game" you can select either

And that’s the only version on modern gen console I believe, so

#

Being on 4 hp on central proccessing level is a nightmare

thorn verge
#

Yeah I had a chaingunner at my save point with 1 hand grenade left and a chaingun

#

Took me a few tries to get past em..

#

4 chapters left on nightmare base game
And then hoping to do the expansions between Friday-Sunday

#

But that’s likely an unrealistic goal tbh

#

With my schedule anyway.
A more realistic goal is probably by the end of Wednesday

I must finish the OG Xbox version

scenic stratus
#

Ya’ll should check out Doom 3 overthinked mod. Best version of Doom 3 imo. Monster bodies take a while to melt so you can take a gander at them. It’s harder, ammo is more scarce, and it’s way more survival-horror resident evil-ish.

slender spindle
thorn verge
#

And, if you think I’m not dying numerous times on nightmare, you are very wrong lol
I have struggled at a couple parts

#

It’s just practice honestly

#

One day maybe I’ll aspire to try classic dooms on nightmare. But, that’s not for a while

slender spindle
#

Even if I wanted to play on a high difficulty I can't. I'm not a good player lol

thorn verge
#

You could improve I’m sure

#

Just takes practice, truly

slender spindle
#

Maybe in the future. I'm too young to be a pro

thorn verge
#

You don’t have to be a pro lol

#

I’m definitely not

#

I literally just the other day had to ask how to kill this one type of enemy on nightmare fast lol

slender spindle
#

I had to look up a guide/walkthrough just so I knew what I was doing. I did that near the end tho

thorn verge
#

And that’s fine. I’ve gotten lost twice on my nightmare run 😂

#

Unless you play a lot, it’s not gonna be first hand knowledge

slender spindle
#

I think once I compete Roe and lost mission I'll bump up all the way to veteran. I'll take a break before that cus I'll be doomed out

#

I think doom 3 might be my 3rd (no pun intended) favorite video game ever

thorn verge
#

See. This was a bad play, but, I still lived. You could do nightmare if you really wanted lol

winter forge
#

That part of the game sucked.
It's a dead-ass adrenaline rush.

thorn verge
#

Honestly, my least liked part of the game so far was the immediate chapter after you leave hell and hell itself

#

Hell isn’t bad. It really isn’t. But for whatever god forsaken reason - idk if it’s a console bug or a BFG edition bug or design or what - but you have to HOLD sprint, it doesn’t toggle like the rest of the game
And pressing in the movement stick while trying to move and aim your gun at the same time is just atrocious. Actually tiring

honest lynx
#

Here's one example

thorn verge
#

Yeah often times that is the case, but I am nostalgic and like the feel of the shotgun in Doom1/2/3

#

It just sounds good
And it looks good

#

My logic is irrational on a functional basis

#

Also which chapter is the super shotgun in. I feel like I missed it this time

#

Actually nvm. IIRC that’s an expansion only weapon now that I think of it

is there a doom 3 source port that allows me to play at full resolution and maybe other quality of life improvements without changing the gameplay/feel?

#

this would be my first time playing it and ive heard bfg edition takes away some of the spookyness

versed estuary
#

Source port for doom 3 that allows you to play modded stuff like the lost mission and phobos

#

Also allows you to raise resolution

#

While keeping it doom 3

outer rivet
#

cool

thorn verge
#

I asked this a while ago and forgot what I was told

#

Do enemies on any of the expansions have modified heaths compared to base game

thorn verge
#

And damage dealt by you is not reduced?

Just feel like I’m one shotting prowlers much less often

I myself prefer Weapons of Mars Destruction, as it doesn't fiddle with the combat loop too much.

First time playing doom 3 went straight to veteran mode. 2 hours and 48 minutes to go from start and listen to all the cutscenes and people no skipping to finishing UAC administrations is that slow or am i fine?

half plank
#

almost 3 hours and youve only gotten through administration?

scenic stratus
#

Ok its not that its hard its that knowing where to go is confusing

half plank
#

ok that is a little slow, yeah.

scenic stratus
#

Im beating the people fast however i get lost easy

half plank
#

are you playing the 04 original or the new port?

scenic stratus
#

The new port

half plank
#

You'll be happy to know that one is a little faster and not as hard. Don't sweat it.

scenic stratus

Its not hard im taking long cuz i get so lost I have to use a guide video to tell me where to go now.

Absolutely

thorn verge

Is the chainsaw on lost mission

#

i dont think so

thorn verge
#

God dangit
It wasn’t on RoE either and I hate the tentacle guys

#

MarauderSad used super shotty instead

scenic stratus
thorn verge
#

TIL imps get very upset when they can’t reach you

#

Or maybe that specific imp in Lost mission, lol

#

This man threw fireballs repeatedly like he was a tennis machine, one every 2-3 seconds

sand panther
#

yeah i felt like imps got more aggresive the more i played the game

#

they would usually throw one fireball but later they decided to go double

thorn verge
#

The only thing I can’t stand is the leap

#

Hardly any time to react on nightmare, you just gotta back up or pray you flyswat him lol

sand panther
#

we all know how many times we opened a door to be greeted by a imp that leaps at you

vernal crest
#

The game is teaching us a life lesson: never trust doors

scenic stratus
#

One has to wonder how long those imps and zombies have been chilling in all those closets

thorn verge
thorn verge
#

PLEASE tell me I’m not the only one who dies from drones sometimes

#

The friendly fire, it crushes my soul. Sometimes I kill a guy well before the drone has a chance to see it, then he still fired and roasts me

#

And half the time the drone doesn’t even stay in front of me

honest lynx
thorn verge
#

😂 I know stand behind it but sometimes enemies spawn behind and then the drone 180 and blasts you

#

It’s alright, it’s not terribly often I die from it but it definitely happens a few times lol

#

I just learned you can grab revenant projectiles, game changing

#

I figured they were tiered as large enemies and you couldn’t

#

Also call me weird but I kinda like LM more than RoE
RoE I respect for new stuff but just felt weird at times, or excessive
Granted I’m only halfway through my 2nd run on LM so I don’t really remember it all, need to finish first

honest lynx
#

I'm a big fan of lost missions also

scenic stratus
#

Ya that was good times I thought

half plank
#

long live the shotgun

thorn verge
#

Also, I think way back on my first run I said the super shotty is meh
If I never redacted that statement, I do now on my second run of the game

honest lynx
#

Right in the weiner

sand panther
#

no wonder why he died in one shot

#

the shotgun never fails

thorn verge
#

Aight I just finished LM and I definitely liked it more then RoE - can reaffirm my opinion lol

#

And, officially done with doom 3 nightmare runs

azure canyon
#

Doom 2 is better.

thorn verge
# azure canyon Doom 2 is better.

Hard to compare doom 3 to any of the doom games I think; sure it has some similar enemies, but it’s a much different game
I like every doom game though so, idk lol

#

Roe takes all the best aspects of teh main game. And condenses it into 3 hours

Lost mission meanwhile forgoes horror for way more action. At only around 1.5 hours

#

There is an entire fight in Hell thats gone in 2019 and BFG RoE

thorn verge
#

Interesting
Id say I was annoyed but with the stupid sprint design in hell sequences, I’ll accept that. Lol

half plank
#

Its an arena fight that gives you a berserk

thorn verge
#

So there’s two arena sequences w berserk?

half plank
#

Wait what Doom 3 did you play?

thorn verge
#

Cus I had one

#

BFG yeah

half plank
#

Was it green?

thorn verge
#

No, red IIRC

half plank
#

There was a green arena in RoE.

thorn verge
#

Oh, thought you meant the berserk power up- idk what color the arena was. But pretty sure it wasn’t green

#

It’s like a cave area w several pillars I think

half plank
#

yeah thats what im talking about. i dont remember playing that when i did bfg roe

thorn verge
#

I definitely had an arena w berserk in BFG 👀

#

There’s like, 2-3 imps, a revenant I think, and a hell knight

half plank
#

weird. you played 2012 bfg or 2019 rerelease?

thorn verge
#

Idk, the console BFG - 2019 I believe

half plank
thorn verge
#

Lemme see if I can find a clip

#

Oh the one you’re talking about I see in this clip- I don’t think I had that one

#

Interesting

half plank
#

i really have no idea why it was cut honestly

thorn verge
#

Yeah this one you’re talking about is like an island almost

#

I definitely don’t remember that

half plank
#

wish the 2019 port restored some of the cuts in 2012 bfg

thorn verge
#

:/ weird

#

I just hate hell sequences- idk if it’s a BFG thing or a console thing but sprint doesn’t toggle - you have to hold it. Which is absurdly annoying on a controller

half plank
#

tbh it flows fine without it. you really dont notice it unless youre looking for it

half plank
thorn verge
#

HOLD AT ALL TIMES?

half plank
#

nods sadly

thorn verge
#

Bruh id jump off a bridge. That’s so awful

half plank
#

It also has a lot of performance quirks. Cyberdemon boss slows the game down insanely. At least on Xbox 360.

thorn verge
#

It was fine for me (when not on 360)
But yeah holding sprint is a turn off. It’s hard to press a stick down that you also move with while also aiming your gun

#

Actually tiring for the thumb lol

half plank
#

The 2005 Xbox port had the best controls. Holding L for sprinting feels nicer. Also had DPAD weapon bindings.

#

Weird that it never returned.

#

Sorry

thorn verge
#

I don’t even use dpad much in d1/d2 tbh so it’s fine - sometimes, under high stress situations ig
But L for sprinting sounds nice

#

I was fine w the toggle sprint that they had though, when it was applicable anyway lol

half plank
#

Being able to just up dpad for shotgun is a blessing though. Really wished it returned.

thorn verge
#

Me who runs shotgun 90% of the game

half plank

#

d1-d3 shotgun is just so good. Can’t beat it, even if I like eternal and so forth - doesn’t have the same vibe

Chaingun in D3 too
The most savage chaingun, change my mind

It just feels like you’re gonna win the fight aaaaaaaa

half plank
#

Weird so many hate 3's shotgun when its so epic

thorn verge
#

I think people hate it cus it’s inconsistent at times

#

And you have to barrel stuff
Which is annoying at times but it’s honestly hilarious when you barrel stuff a marine running around the corner

#

Has that “sit the fuck down” vibe
Lmaooo

Musta missed the sarcasm

#

Delta Touch's implementation of the Dhewm3 sourceport does one better by offering a weapon-wheel, not unlike 2016/Eternal.

#

Also offers a "smart-toggle" for sprinting and crouching.

Brief tap = toggle
Press and hold = normal hold behavior, release to turn off

that sounds even more weird for the hell itself in the game, since you have infinite stamina

#

yeah ive played doom 3 on switch and only in hell you have to hold down the thing

#

it was kinda annoying, especially the bosses

half plank
#

Weird that the 2019 port does this.

#

Thinking the bug is caused because the sprint is switched to infinite. Something in there was probably fucked up.

#

Doom 3 is the best game of all time because it is the only game where you can play Doom 3's entire campaign.

scenic stratus
#

you don't even realize to what an extent — because most likely you've played BFG edition, instead of Vanilla game

(dhewm3 source port recommended for vanilla)

half plank
#

No

#

It's really not. I don't say that in a mean way either. The new light mechanic really does a lot and the larger ammo pool makes it a little less tense.

D4D3 (Doom 4 Doom 3)

#

I mean, DOOM 2016 has been brought to the classic Doom engine and the Quake engine. I'd love to see a version using the Doom 3 engine.

scenic stratus
#

nope

#

still no

#

different game

#

totally

#

Doom3 is self-sufficient

#

even the BFG edition is not required (except for speedrunning)

#

by the way

#

doom3 almost doesn't have any speedruns (there's only 2 or 3 and they are rather lengthy)

#

bfg edition IS NOT doom3

#

so, BFG speedrun is related to a different game

#

out-of-box, bfg contains hacks, allowing you to move faster... IIRC some changes to jump mechanics.. something to this effect

#

thus, BFG speedrun is not doom3 speedrun

#

i started different discussion re speedruns

vernal crest
#

although it would be awesome to get a Doom 3 remake, the meaning of an remake is taking something, changing it up while updating some things, but trying to keep the spirit of the original. And tbh, I'm just kind of afraid of them ruining it ||it's also the only reason I don't want Betruger in modern Doom games, I'm afraid of them ruining the cheesy old man and doing something serious and/or adding more of the complicated "lore"||

half plank

||I feel like the cheesy old man energy would fit the new games||

honest lynx
#

There's no way 3 would ever get a remake anyways. Never going to happen

vernal crest
#

well they're not even remaking the first game, so Doom 3 getting any sort of actual remake is not likely, I guess it's also good since any Doom game up to OG Doom 3 allow for modding

Every time I think “it can’t be better than this”, I try something new and I laugh

Definitely the most satisfying doom chainsaw

Also is Campbell a significant character in the game

He’s the guy prior to Sarge’s level that’s laying on the floor

Feel like I’ve only seen him that one time though

Aight I beat sarge - only a few levels left for collectibles. Hopefully I haven’t missed any this time, because I have more than had my fill of doom 3 lol

BFG has a lot of shit, but there's some redimible things about it.
Its presentation (aside of the new human models) and frame rate are actually very pleasant when comes to play. In fact the bright tones allow you to see a new level of details that can be missed on OG D3 due the darkness.

@dull wigeon doom3 doesn’t give you much in the way of textures… it’s the way doom3 is. however the level of detalization of OG is sufficient

bfg brings high resolution textures, which is altering entire game

#

besides that, brightness, tones, etc… you have different dynamics of movement / jumps

#

who cares what bethesda puts in the title? it’s only the title saying doom3

but the game (bfg) proves otherwise

#

no matter what you call it

#

bfg == modded doom3

#

and that’s the extent of it

#

like modded San Andreas with reflections and better textures (only 3D meshes are way too old) but there’s a huge crowd of amateurs

#

if you have primitive 3D models — textures won’t improve much

#

it’s nice to watch Le Kolega speedrunning BFG

#

but at the same time it’s quite frustrating to realize there are almost next to none OG speedruns

#

might be cool to play some PS VR of bfg

#

but i won’t manage to finish the game due to being devoted to OG

I’ve never seen someone so passionately argue something that allows other people more opportunity to play virtually the same core game

Disappointing tbh
When I see people play a game that I like, even if it isn’t exactly the same, I’m happy for them for even trying the game, never mind if they played it exactly how I played it, because they can still talk to me about a lot of similar things even if there are some differences lol

I recommend using Dhewm3 source port - it's super easy to install (just unpack into game folder)

it comes with widescreen support out-of-box

but fails to render my 21:9

@ruby umbra with Dhewm3 you have improved texture rendering, without substituting game textures with some mods

I just fuck around in config file

#

yep, if you want to have experience at the level of 2004 then go for Doom3.exe

#

Dhewm3 brings better everything, and is maintained at least once per year

good thing is it doesn't break anything in the game

sometimes crashes if you run Linux binary 😄

i'm thinking of playing Doom3.exe today

maybe there can be a pinned comment for it eventually, but basically bfg removed some areas and monsters, let's you use flashlight while shooting, has arguably improved models(I think it's better at least), double ammo (so you an use the same gun all game lol) and comes with Lost Mission expansion pack

BFG nearly doubles the ammo, makes kt brighter, removes some areas, replaces flashlight mechancks, removes demons in a lot of encounters (especially late game), removes the ability to skip cutscenes, the list could go on

And more of course but I feel like more people are using it for that

I have a regular ass laptop so I don't do much with higher resolutions

Widescreen support without commands

#

also fixes some graphical issues

at the risk of acting like doom is special, I do think using mods and ports for doom should be considered especialy normal. Porting these games has been the standard since the beginning since the source code for doom was released only a few years after release.

Absolutely true. Like at this point, if you want boomer mode you're gonna use Chocolate Doom over Dosbox emulation because it runs better and is easier to set up.

how about I just like, buy it on steam

acoustic acorn
#

At least for doom1, doom2, the steam version is less faithful to the original release than a port like dsda lol

#

for dhewm3 all you have to do is drag a thing and rename dhewm3's exe to "doom3.exe"

#

and steam will launch into dhewm3

#

Setting up PC source ports and fan projects is a lot more complicated on paper tbh.

#

You really just have to drag a few things

I've been a woof user for the last year or so but now that dsda has controller support and a plural number of pixels, I guess it's dsda all the way (unless I suddenly have interest in coop)

#

Only thing I wish DSDA had was the colored blood for bruisers and cacos

#

Oh shit DSDA has a new update released since I last played

software in hardware mode 💦

yeah the hardware update is really impressive. It still doesn't work with obs for me

I cant record on any sourcepost other than gz at the moment. Frames all fucked up

Ok, Doom 3 on Switch, let’s hope it’s even partially optimized

#

I found 3 charges to be the best for BFG vs h&ck knights and viles. Is that about what the people who play d3 a lot would corroborate?

honest lynx

#

acoustic acorn

is resurrection of evil included? I paid extra for it

tribal lake
#

Yeah, it should all be in one package now. I only bought the OG doom 3 but one day BFG edition and RoE suddenly appeared in my library.

has anyone tried Doom 3 on Steam deck?

strange valve
#

More importantly, do the Dhewm3 and BFA sourceports run on Steam Deck?

versed estuary
#

Yes dhewm 3 works on deck

#

I got it running.

#

Doom 3 also runs on deck

#

I also got said mods running on it as well

#

No clue on BFA I only used dhewm3

strange valve
#

I do know that Dhewm3 is capable of running on Android, with the help of Delta Touch.

#

Heck, I had done a full playthrough of Doom 3 and ROE during that particular module's alpha/beta-testing phase.

#

Providing bug-reports where needed, of course.

whats a sourceport

#

@strange valve

strange valve
#

Generally, if the source-code to a given game has officially been made available to the public by the original developers, coding enthusiasts often make custom executables that allow that game to run that game on multiple platforms, not just its original intended OS. There are all sorts of sourceports available for Classic Doom and Doom 3, therefore.

#

Certain sourceports may allow for additional functionality for modders and mappers, or even offer general quality-of-life improvements.

torpid wing
#

so i can get dhewm 3 on steam deck without doom 3?

strange valve
#

You still need the original game data for said sourceports to actually work though.

#

In this case, it'd be the .PK4 files from your original Doom 3 installation,

We do not condone piracy in any way.

stray citrus

torpid wing
#

strange valve
#

Then get a Steam gift-card or something, after you save up some money. You'll thank us later, believe me.

torpid wing
#
