the BFG is the flashlight!

safe karma
#

lol

scenic stratus
#

That door was before hell. Can't remember the exact level though

safe karma
#

Damn

#

Could be anywhere in Delta Lab area

scenic stratus
#

I think it might even be before that

safe karma
#

Delta have least 5 sectors

slim rose
#

if you felt lazy you could just run around in no clip to find it

boreal adder
#

No, it's in Communications Transfer. In the second room after you enter the building.
Trust me ;)

restive delta
#

It is indeed

boreal adder
#

one of my favourite levels

plush gyro
#

I'd rather encourage the original playthrough (with toggleable flashlight only). It's how we all did it at first.
This is the way.

slim rose
#

I just like the sounds of the flashlight when you swing it

plush gyro
#

(whoosh)

slim rose
#

fists too

plush gyro
#

YES. That too!

slim rose
#

the real way to play doom 3 is only use the flashlight

plush gyro
#

Well, if you had like 1000000 health lol

slim rose
#

thats what godmode is for

plush gyro
boreal adder
#

wait... a sith and a borg and a captain at the same time?

#

I quaver

plush gyro
#

However the Hell level would be tricky, IIRC

#

Hahahahahhahah yes! 🤣

scenic stratus
#

Agreed with darth. Original is definitely the way to go

rocky acorn
#

Hit the Central Processing level. The Perfected Doom 3 soul cube really does fuckin' break the game balance. I am rolling on 200 health, full armor and full ammo, and I can drop down my own personal hell knight.

oak copper
#

So i should do bfg edition?

rocky acorn
#

Honestly I would do OG Doom 3.

oak copper
#

Ok. If i do that how do i get it at a modern resolution?

coral forum
#

Use the dhewm3 sourceport

oak copper
#

Thanks

scenic stratus
#

And there's plenty of mods for the original to make it look better than bfg if you're concerned about that

oak copper
#

so uhm playing it and the shotgun is the worst thing ive ever seen

#

holy fuck

#

anyway to make the gunplay not dog shit

coral solstice
#

I think there should be a mod or two that reduces that wild spread

oak copper
#

ok im gonna try and find it thank you

#

found it

#

hope it works

scenic stratus
#

its kinda meant to be like that and only used at point blank range, i mean hell its a pistol grip sg with like a 10 inch barrel

coral solstice
#

most VG shotguns don't require you to get that close

charred fox
#

I use the realistic weapons mod I think

#

Fixes the spread but don’t use it with roe because it fucks up the supershotgun lol

oak copper
#

Ok

plush gyro
#
seta r_customHeight 1080
seta r_aspectRatio 1
seta r_mode -1```
Put this into a text file that you'll rename to autoexec.cfg, or add to your existing one. @oak copper
oak copper
#

I just ended up using dhewm3

plush gyro
#

Welp

oak copper
#

Thanks though

plush gyro
#

This is how I always used to do it, before all these fancy mods.

#

Had to do everything manually.

oak copper
#

I'm liking the game so far but the default guns are really crappy in comparison to every other Doom game. I know the pacing is much different but like. Yuck

slim rose
#

what's wrong with a cube for a shotgun!?

#

tbh ye all the guns are ugly.

#

I like the plasma rifle though

oak copper
#

Not really the appearance more so they don't shoot like they would in any other doom game.

slim rose
#

mmmm

#

not destructive. More realistic

oak copper
#

Ye that's just not doom

#

It feels like sacrilege

charred fox
#

The weapon balance is just off in general

#

Shotgun has the spread of pepper spray

versed estuary
#

For doom 3 all you needed was rpg and plasma gun

charred fox
#

Oh yeah

versed estuary
#

And there went the entire campaign

#

Grenades too were fun

charred fox
#

Plasma was great

little raven
#

Chaingin is op

versed estuary
#

Eh, plasma >>>>>chaingun

charred fox
#

I’d love grenades more if they didn’t always bounce back ;_;

#

Chaingun has the fastest reload for some reason lol

little raven
#

I always forget about my grenades because I only use plasma and chaingun

versed estuary
#

Lol I have a perfect video of grenade bounce back, I tossed it right at a corner and it hit me for full hp

charred fox
#

God I hate that

versed estuary
#

I never used bfg

charred fox
#

Boomerang nades

versed estuary
#

First time I tried it ā€œover charged or somethingā€ and killed me

#

Saved it for final boss fight vs imps

charred fox
#

Ikr

little raven
#

Getting hit by a shotgunner pushes you back a frickin mile

#

Same with lost souls

versed estuary
#

Me 1 pumps an imp
2 seconds later
9 shots of a shotgun don’t kill an imp

charred fox
#

F

little raven
#

Yeah the doom 3 shotgun is the worst weapon ever made in a video game

scenic stratus
#

The chaingun was way better on the Xbox port lol, every shot was 100% accurate

charred fox
#

Damn

heady vortex
#

yah shotgun sucks, I forgot how bad it is

#

made it to central processing on my 1-level-per-day-countdown

charred fox
#

Aw yea

restive delta
#

I just sprint in and out with shotgun, works pretty well that way

#

Though it's not great against faster enemies in particular. Need to score a nearly point-blank headshot to take down a commando I believe

#

But early game against imps you just sprint in a U-shape, and at the bottom of the U shape you're close enough to score a hit. That amount of movement will general avoid being hit by the fireballs

#

And yeah shotgunners are proper bastards, then send you all of the place. I try to save my nades, and sprint backwards spamming a few. Though as mention about, the grenades are super bouncy so it doesn't always work, and you can even hit yourself sometimes spooky

scenic stratus
#

I feel as though half of my gameplay in Doom 3 was spent spinning or sprinting around and hoping to hit shit... It’s a shame, because I have a soft spot for Doom 3 as a genuine attempt at a horror game rather than a shootemup... but the controls feel... slippery? I dunno, they don’t feel right.

restive delta
#

For me, the standard movement speed and responsiveness to inputs is kind of heavy considering a lot of enemies are designed to come right up in your face.

#

Without sprint usage you tend to get battered pretty quickly

slim rose
#

o boy i gotta play the entire doom 3 in VR now, its pretty neat

stuck lion
#

How do I play the dlcs exactly

#

I only got options for the main campaign

scenic stratus
#

Are you using bfg?

stuck lion
#

yup

#

That one comes with the dlcs right?

#

Or am I being rarted

scenic stratus
#

Should be selectable when you hit new game at the menu

stuck lion
#

Ah yup thanks

#

I thought that would just start the campaign

frozen nova
#

back then it was called expansion packs

scenic stratus
#

Yup lol

frozen nova
#

lost mission is a pack-in rather than DLC

#

it was never released separately

stuck lion
#

Which ones shortest?

frozen nova
#

Lost mission is barely 3 hours

#

RoE is slightly longer

scenic stratus
#

Lost mission for sure

stuck lion
#

got it

#

I say that but I dont even remember which I picked

restive delta
#

Yeah I think Lost Missions took me like 2:45

frozen nova
#

was there a heart? the heart thing is from RoE

coral solstice
#

yeah, the Artifact

restive delta
#

RoE is kinda half the length of the main game, maybe a bit less.

frozen nova
#

main game is about 8 hours on average maybe longer depending on how you're playing it

restive delta
#

@stuck lion If the intro was a bit like the Enpro cut-scene from 3, then you start Lost Missions

#

If it started with some ugly dude taking his helmet off and touching some weird heart thing, it's RoE

stuck lion
#

There was a heart, I think I started roe

restive delta
#

In that case yes. Enjoy

stuck lion
#

Half the length of the main campaign?? I spent 30 hours on that

frozen nova
#

how?

stuck lion
#

I have no idea

restive delta
#

Getting lost too much spooky

slim rose
restive delta
#

Good news is there are very few PDAs in RoE, and not many have audio logs at all

stuck lion
#

I wasn't even lost much, I got demons spawning most of the time I really feel like I was just sucked into a dimension where time goes slower

restive delta
#

RoE is a bit more pacey, so it hopefully won't feel as a long

frozen nova
#

RoE is also much darker

stuck lion
#

I hope so I can't be spending another 15 hours in this

#

I was so sure I could cram doom 3 into my game schedule, I gave it a week

#

It's been a month and a half this game is too long

slim rose
#

whats wrong with hallways of DOOM

#

theres just a lot of them!

stuck lion
#

And they all look the saammmmeee

restive delta
#

@stuck lion Well looking back at my last streams, I spent 10 hours on 3, and 4 on RoE

slim rose
#

5 levels later im still in delta labs?

stuck lion
#

how in gods name did you spend a third of the time I did in campaign

restive delta
#

So that's more like 12 hours for RoE for you then... but still spooky

stuck lion
restive delta
#

Well I know the game well. Since I was streaming that was longer too, since I listened to a fair few logs and videos and stuff from what I remember

stuck lion
#

Ah fair enough

restive delta
#

If I just blasted through without caring, maybe I'd do more like 6-8 hours. I've never really tried though

scenic stratus
#

Isn't there an achievement in bfg for beating it in less than 8 hours? So it's definitely doable

stuck lion
#

Theres one for beating the main campaign in less than 10 hours

restive delta
#

Oh interesting. Mind you I have the Beth Net one, not sure if that has achievements or not

stuck lion
#

Lmao why have only a total of 11.7% of players actually finished the main campaign

restive delta
#

But under 10 would be no problem for me, I know the game well enough

stuck lion
#

I got 30 hours so I'm not quiiiiiite there spooky

restive delta
#

That happens with most games.

#

But I suspect with 3 the percentage finished is lower than the likes of 2016 because of how long it is

stuck lion
#

Yeah I was really thinking of dropping it too

#

But then I remembered I paid 7 bucks for this

frozen nova
#

D3 only truly comes alive during its latter half

restive delta
#

Like some of these massive open-world games you'll be looking at single digit % finishers probably

stuck lion
#

That last area with the lava and the dungeon stuff was cool, wish there was more of that

versed estuary
#

So lemme tell you this story where Soky said he had 30 hours played and was on level 5

stuck lion
#

Shut the save thing was broken and telling me the wrong level name before I manually saved over it

#

I was right at the end of the game

versed estuary
#

So lemme tell you a story, that started 30 hours of Soky’s life ago

#

One soky, one game. 1 dream. A never ending dream

stuck lion
versed estuary
#

And his pursuit of the final boss

stuck lion
#

I'm still not done I gotta finish the dlcs too

#

If roe is really half the campaign then I got 15 hours

versed estuary
#

You finally beat the campaign?

stuck lion
#

Yea my save was right before the end

versed estuary
#

I’m so proud of you ;-;

stuck lion
#

Thanks ;-;

versed estuary
#

Only took ya 31 hours

stuck lion
#

I just bfg spammed the cyberdemon

versed estuary
#

Time for another 30 hours for both expansions

little raven
#

No mastermind in 3?

slim rose
#

that thing wasnt a cyberdemon

stuck lion
#

I'm gonna finish this when I'm 30

slim rose
#

it was a demoncyber

versed estuary
#

It was stupid that’s what it was

slim rose
#

it was big, and easy to beat

versed estuary
#

Roar,
Starts shuffling it’s feet

slim rose
#

it moved 2mph

stuck lion
#

It just came at me and shot one rocket in total

versed estuary
#

It moved slower than Soky playing the game

stuck lion
#

I expected something, better

#

spooky it did!!

frozen nova
#

in dhewm 3 the cyberdemon appears to move fast but I could be wrong

stuck lion
#

It took me a hot minute to figure out I was supposed to use the soul cube on it

slim rose
#

wow this is gonna be hard to beat
throws 3 soul cubes and wins
pfffff

versed estuary
#

It’s legs fell asleep waiting for Soky

stuck lion
#

I used up all my bfg ammo on it for no reason

#

Oh yeah I had a bfg,,, I have no idea from where

slim rose
#

ye basically all your weapons are useless

stuck lion
#

The crosshair not turning red when I shot him tipped me off

#

I thought I had to get him into that pentagram thing and push him in the lava pit in the middle or smth

slim rose
#

its really a puzzle

#

huh none of my guns did anything and ive been running in circles for 20 minutes

frozen nova
#

i can mod you the game to allow killing the cyberdemon with weapons

#

but youll need the original release

slim rose
#

you should mod so fists only

stuck lion
#

Rip I got bfg

slim rose
#

its harder to find the older one though, or at least its only physical

#

or downloaded in a not so secure place

frozen nova
#

fun thing with this mod is that you can kill it with the soul cube OR weapons

stuck lion
#

its on steam no?

slim rose
#

MULTIPLE disks ftw

frozen nova
#

the soul cube does about 1000 damage minimum

slim rose
#

im pretty sure steam only has bfg

stuck lion
#

Steam has normal doom 3 too, just checked

frozen nova
#

the cyberdemon by default has 4000 health

slim rose
#

hmmm

#

well i can say its certainly uglier

frozen nova
#

but the cyberdemon has a flag set that it can only be damaged by the soul cube

#

if you disable that flag you can kill it with any weapon

#

but it also helps to buff its health so you could potentially use both

stuck lion
#

How do I disable

frozen nova
#

?

slim rose
#

is there a console command for that?

frozen nova
#

no

#

you need the original game

stuck lion
#

ah right forgot

frozen nova
#

and install a simple mod

scenic stratus
#

Steam has bfg and original. It's gog that only has bfg unfortunately, I strongly prefer gog over steam

restive delta
#

Yeah I noticed BFG Edition gives you like 1 auto-save, and one quick-save

#

Which kinds sucks if you overwrite

stuck lion
#

I have 3 saves

restive delta
#

Vanilla didn't have auto-saves to be fair, but at least it kept a save at the start of every single level

#

Oh really? How did you do that?

stuck lion
#

One auto save and 2 quick saves

restive delta
#

I see. I guess I didn't use a second quick-save spooky

#

But still, if you don't quick-save and then start a different campaign, you're screwed

#

It does say it'll over-write, but still

stuck lion
#

I'm fine with losing my main campaign, pretty sure I overwrote it

restive delta
#

Which is annoying considering they actually put checkpoints in, so don't expect you to use quick-save

boreal adder
#

yeah, I did like in the original how the the different level autosaves would work kinda like a map select if you wanted to replay some part of the game you liked

#

such as communications transfer XD

boreal adder
#

hah, I was just thinking, Doom 3 rules might be a good thing to have for Doctor Who going forward
as in, the Doctor can use their sonic screwdriver, or defeat their enemies, but not both at once šŸ˜„

rocky acorn
#

Doom 3 is finished.

#

Took like 6 shots of soul cube to finish off cybie.

#

I'm feeling good about Resurrection of Evil tho.

rocky acorn
#

Mm, ok, having a problem where I can't make the game borderless windowed for easy alt-tabbing.

#

Doom 3 does, but RoE doesn't.

boreal adder
#

I'm confused, 'cause I could never alt-tab out of doom 3. just wouldn't work šŸ™‚

#

that said I never really wanted to

rocky acorn
#

I was using Borderless Gaming.

nimble wren
#

the only solution seems to be going to windowed mode with alt+enter

faint owl
#

Doom 3 with no hud is awesome šŸ‘

restive delta
#

I never tried any borderless app on that, so I can't say. But if you didn't set it up for the RoE executable too, that would be why. If you did, then I don't know

hexed pecan
#

Bfg edition >>

rocky acorn
#

Both Doom 3 and RoE use the same executable.

restive delta
#

Oh it's an icon, I thought there was a separate executable spooky

#

I guess check your d3xp folder to see if there are any auto exec configs, could be a fullscreen command in there

#

I have "auto.cfg" and "AutoExec.cfg" in mine, and I don't know if I created both of those manually. Also if you own them through Steam, there could be a fullscreen command in the start-up settings.

rocky acorn
#

Actually i've found that alt-tab does absolutely nothing in RoE.

#

Even if I run the game in a bordered window.

restive delta
#

Interesting. I just got used to quitting the games if I really had to get out, since it seemed as fast / faster than alt-tab as standard spooky

rocky acorn
#

Eugh. I think I am just going to skip Resurrection of Evil. It's too much trouble to get it playable, it's not even the same doom man marine guy, and with PD3, the videos on the video discs won't play.

versed estuary
#

Ouch RoE was arguably a million times better than the main campaign

rocky acorn
#

My only memories of RoE are the grabber, woman scientist and the final boss fight.

#

I'm sure it's good, but if I can't make PD3 RoE edition work with it, i'm probably gonna not bother. I quite enjoyed my time with Doom 3, but that's likely enough.

#

I'm off to Doom 64, it seems.

green wave
#

i've just finished doom 3 and was kinda bored with the monster closets

#

wasnt scared, just pick up anything and like 2 or 3 imps spawn over and over again

#

plus shotgun spread is just way to big

#

i do like the shotgun sound though in the bfg edition

brisk gulch
#

I adore roe

safe karma
#

I finished BFG tonight!

#

Betruger boo'ed me!

slim rose
#

Neat

#

So all the expensions?

#

I guess that's bfg ...

native kettle
#

Honestly doom 3 still looks beautiful by todays standards.

slim rose
#

It's fine I suppose

#

I'm a fan of dark shadows tbh

boreal adder
#

I like 'em too, especially when enemies react as though their in the dark. I hate stealth mechanics but I like sneaking in a naturalistic, non-necessary way

#

unfortunately demons can see in the dark, cause they're demons
but it still looks nice

#

I played another game recently with a very similar shadowy aesthetic

native kettle
#

Ever tried RBDOOM3 BFG?

#

Cranks it up to 11.

boreal adder
#

only for mods, and only as an "experiment"
decided I liked the original d3 for mods better

rancid bobcat
#

I wonder... if RBDOOM 3 will run with "Doom 3" on bethesda.net

#

(the "Doom 3" is a Doom 3 which is separated from the BFG edition)

#

it.. did?

#

yeah it works

#

but language set to japanese for some reason

#

I also highly rec dhewm3, which is a source port for the original doom3 that allows you a 16:9 res with no UI stretching

#

fully voiced too cacocutie

scenic stratus
#

Should we pretend doom 3 didn’t existed or just

dark knot
#

Mmmm... no, still here

scenic stratus
#

Dam

#

Doom 3 was great why would we do that

dark knot
#

You cant stop the rng dependent shotgun, no one can

slim rose
#

No DOOM 3 has some stuff that is sorta important

#

Have to say, possibly underrated

scenic stratus
#

Underrated*

dark knot
#

Definitely, it was the last doom game I heard of, seriously, I heard of 64 before doom 3

slim rose
#

Neat!

scenic stratus
#

Really?

#

I heard of doom 64 last

slim rose
#

^

dark knot
#

I mean, I'd consider doom 64 the most underrated doom game, but doom 3 still needs more credit, it gave us a lot of tech that we now take for granted,( and an original design for the hell knight)

#

Like texture lighting for example,

slim rose
#

What i think is cool is that Half Life 2 was released 1 month after Doom 3

scenic stratus
#

Nah I liked doom 64

coral solstice
#

didn't id Tech 4 have better shadows than Source tho?

#

64's my favorite Doom game

slim rose
#

If i had to compare, I think doom 3 looks better, probably because it wasnt so....square?

dark knot
#

That's cool, I think every doom game had it's ups and downs, I cant even decide on a favorite

scenic stratus
#

Comparing a Nintendo 64 with a Xbox 360 - ps3 game now are we

dark knot
#

Wanst doom 3 one the xbox one? ( I'm getting my dates mixed)

coral solstice
#

actually, 3 was on the very original Xbox

#

and it was a damn good port for its time, too

dark knot
#

*dammit I meant original xbox

scenic stratus
#

So not game boy?

#

Damn I must be living in the wrong age then

coral solstice
#

the Xbox version of ROE actually came with 1 and 2 as well

#

IIRC those versions of 1 and 2 had the slowed-down music the 2019 ports initially used

scenic stratus
#

That reminds me

slim rose
#

@dark knot its ok. You just have to say one box x one x x box

scenic stratus
#

Anyone else excited for RE3 REmake

coral solstice
#

the BFG versions of 1 and 2 have the music at the correct speed, but at the cost of them being GUS recordings instead of SC-55 (or MS GS Wavetable, which is basically a grainy SC-55)

scenic stratus
#

That original Xbox port is super underrated. It fixed that issue with armor never really degrading too much and made it slightly more effective

dark knot
#

Indeed, what's up with the bfg version of the classic dooms, like, you cant complete half the secrets there because you fall too fast or something

coral solstice
#

IIRC the BFG ports actually run in an id Tech 4 framework and render to a texture

scenic stratus
#

I didn't hear about that, did they screw up the physics or something?

slim rose
#

i never played RE. But I watched for the X memes

dark knot
#

(I still play bfg edition cuz I dont want to feel like I'm wasting my 360)

boreal adder
#

I can't decide on a favourite doom either. I can decide on a least favourite, but even that's muddled cause it had some really good parts
(and spoiler alert the least favourite is not Doom 3 XD)

scenic stratus
#

I can't say there's a bad doom game but I definitely know my least favorite haha

versed estuary
#

My least favorite is final doom

#

And doom 2

#

My top favorites are doom 2026 and 3

frozen nova
#

My favorite is Doom 69

slim rose
#

I like Doom

scenic stratus
#

My least favorite is 2016, but that's mostly due to lack of replayability. I found and did everything my first playthrough

boreal adder
#

doom 2026 bob? if you've been to the future, you gotta share

versed estuary
#

It’s the sequel to doom eternal. That’s all I can say

boreal adder
#

have to wait six years? ouch

versed estuary
#

If you think eternal looks good lol you haven’t seen ANYTHING

scenic stratus
#

Damn a 6 year wait in between games?

versed estuary
#

For the new deep dive technology yes

restive delta
#

Well I streamed The Lost Mission as my second playthrough today, and it took me just over one and a half hours... so there's your benchmark @stuck lion spooky spooky spooky

versed estuary
#

that’s about a month soky time

restive delta
#

I think my first one took two and a half hours from what I remember of the auto-save time. How I managed to take a whole hour extra I don't know. Sure I listened to some logs and that video, but that's not worth much spooky

boreal adder
#

no, there weren't many in TLM

#

the one with the construction supervisor guy was pretty funny though

#

and if you listen to it right as you pick it up it lets you know exactly what's about to happen in the next room, and exactly which enemy will do it

restive delta
#

Yeah I loved that, it was epic

boreal adder
#

...stupid... stupid architect

#

the revenants are all his fault

#

I'm dead now and it's all the stupid architect's fault
Folsom out!

dawn jetty
#

So question, sorry new here

I heard that the BFG Doom 3 wasn't that compatible with mods and what not, is it the same case with the Doom 3 that Bethesda has on their site?

#

I don't care too much about mods just curious for once I finish the standard Doom 3 for the first time.

coral solstice
#

yes

frozen nova
#

og Doom 3 was before bethesda acquisition
its the only version with proper mod support

#

BFG ed has its own set of mods I think, old mods are not compatible

boreal adder
#

BFG edition can run some old mods if you set it up right. I forget where or how
tried it a little bit and decided og doom 3 was better for the mods

nimble wren
#

they removed the editor command from BFG, I know that
sourcerports can re-enable it, such as Classic RBDoom3BFG

frozen nova
#

bfg ed just doesnt feel like Doom 3 to me

nimble wren
#

if you played the original first, then yeah, it would

dawn jetty
#

So is the Bethesda Doom 3 just the BFG Edition but with a different title in the menu?

nimble wren
#

yes, and without the classic games
because it corresponds to the re-release on consoles

dawn jetty
#

That makes sense I suppose

#

A shame but that's fine.

scenic stratus
#

get og d3 if you care about mods, it's the most compatible

dawn jetty
#

I don't really care that much about the mods, I bought Doom 3 just to play Doom 3 and because of the Eternal skins, was just curious if the version I bought was moddable though in case I was interested in the future.

boreal adder
#

long story short, it probably is but it's probably complicated

#

don't expect to just download a mod and play it over an afternoon. expect to spend the afternoon figuring out how to set it up ;)
and no I unfortunately can't help with that part

dawn jetty
#

Yeah sounds fine, thanks for the answer, I appreciate it.

heady vortex
#

killed the saboath - aka proto doom hunter and got the BFG

#

however I haven't found the SMG since I lost it coming back from hell. it is very annoying

boreal adder
#

rly? You shoulda had it before the shotgun IIRC

#

you must have missed it somewhere

saboath is actually more of a Quake 2 monster than a proto doomhunter

heady vortex
#

so maybe I do not see it again ...

random scaffold
#

So if i play doom 3 in the bethesda Launcher do i still get the skin in eternal in Steam?

pseudo pivot
#

As long as you connect your Slayers Club account in DOOM 3, you can claim the skin in whatever version of DOOM Eternal you want. They do have a version on Bethesda Launcher that has the necessary connectivity, so if that's the version of DOOM 3 that you have, then yes. šŸ™‚

dawn jetty
#

Speaking of such

#

When I try to connect my Slayer Club account to Doom 3 it gives me a server error of sorts.

#

Works for Doom 1 and 2 though.

#

TIL xbox Resurrection of Evil bolts the flashlight onto the pistol doomguy_thonk

short blade
#

Do I need DooM3 BFG for that?

#

Because I just have the base DooM3 and DooM3: RoE from Steam

#

oh wait you're talking in Bethesda's launcher.....darn

rancid bobcat
#

Its a bit messy, yeah

short blade
#

Welp I've already asked it, so since I have connected my slayer's club to my steam, would it still recognize that I have it?

rancid bobcat
#

When you launch Eternal it should have a login page for bethesda.net account

#

My guess

short blade
#

I mean recognizing that I have Doom 3 and RoE on steam as opposed to on the Bethesda launcher.

rancid bobcat
#

Oh. No.

#

Give zenimax money for that specific ripped out doom 3 release carmack

#

Its functionally almost the same as Doom 3 from BFG edition sans multiplayer, 3d support and Doom 1-2

short blade
#

Well that's a bit of an oversight

rancid bobcat
#

What’s messed up is that the ol’ Doom 3 BFG Edition is not eligible for skins either

short blade
#

Yeah that's so dumb

rancid bobcat
#

I am more interested to know if the switch ports made the skins available on pc or not

#

And if I duplicated those skins with pc versions carmack

short blade
#

Bet you they aren't. Gotta shell out that sweet sweet pocket money for more copies you know?

restive delta
#

I highly suspect it'll unlock the skins for whatever platform, since if you're using the same Bethesda account for Eternal, it's going to link it

#

Whether you can use the same account for multiple platforms when it comes to Eternal, I don't know

I think that one of the reasons Doom 3 failed, on top of being so drastically different from the beloved originals, was because of the lackluser art design. HL2's technology wasn't as good, but it had much better art design and visual variety. In HL2, you've got urbanized cities, ghost towns, sewers, beautiful beaches, etc. In D3 there's steel corridors and occasionally a bunch of red rock that which you can't even spend that much time in unless you want to suffocate.

rancid bobcat
#

How many copies did Doom 3 sell?
By the beginning of 2007, over 3.5 million copies of Doom 3 had been sold worldwide, making it the most successful project by id Software to date.

define "failed"

#

because that can mean different things to people

frozen nova
#

reviews were good too

#

again, this was before outlets sucked publisher dick

rancid bobcat
#

Hell in Doom 3 is breathtaking

#

and even if a lot of stuff feels severely dated (like really low res textures) the lighting engine still holds up

limpid phoenix
#

Doom 3 hell feels like you’re walking through Dante’s inferno

#

A very biblical hell

#

In some ways it’s more enjoyable then later editions where hell is just an alien world

frozen nova
#

I wasnt down with D4's hell
it wasnt very hellish

limpid phoenix
#

It was just mars 2

#

to me at least

scenic stratus
#

Dante's Inferno
very biblical
Pick one

#

Biblical hell is a void

limpid phoenix
#

Alright I pick Dante

#

Sorry

frozen nova
#

Biblical hell was plagiarized from Zoroastrian hell

limpid phoenix
#

I’m not Christian I ain’t know that

frozen nova
#

a realm of darkness

scenic stratus
#

Pretty unlikely considering Zoroastrism was Persian afaik

rancid bobcat
#

I didn't feel like Doom 3 lacked environment variety too much, even if 70% of the game is variation on sci-fi labs

charred fox
#

I think doom 3 hell was pretty void like but last one I played was ROE

slim rose
#

the hell was cool imo

boreal adder
#

I liked 2016's hell... it felt more like a real place

scenic stratus
#

"Doom 3 failed"
Stopped reading, he has no idea what he's talking about.

dark knot
#

Indeed, anybody who says doom 3 failed is dead wrong, to a heavy rng shotgun

coral solstice
#

Doom 3 was a goddamn masterpiece

dark knot
#

Indeed it was, it has some flaws, but overall its damn good, it really gave doom a new turn as a franchise, and gave us a lot of new tech, damn whoever says the world would be better without doom 3 is insane or something

rancid bobcat
#

feel like its about the fan reception in the long run, and the game DID put tech over gameplay

#

and the spoops felt really old but not to 12 yo me

coral solstice
#

both 3 and 64 are the last pieces of evidence that Doom isn't just action IMO

dark knot
#

I good spice of horror, but still packed with action

rancid bobcat
#

it does gloriously picks up at the second half though, and for majority of RoE

#

if there is one thing I absolutely hate though is that this game has the ouroboros of game design.. the flashlight

#

"wtf its stupid why they don't ductape the flashlight in 22nd century"

#

it gets mounted in BFG edition

#

"wtf you made the game less tense and ruined it"

#

this savage cycle, man

#

I do like that xbox RoE mounted it to a pistol

dark knot
#

Mhm, though I do like the mounted flashlight

rancid bobcat
#

||and tbf BFG got a lot more going on than mounting the flashlight that alters the experience in weird ways||

#

||like dead bodies everywhere in RoE so you end up fisting everything in that campaign||

coral solstice
#

||it made things too easy and actually cut out ROE's blue arena in the Hell map||

dark knot
#

Yeah, bfg does have a lot of flaws,

#

It doesn't even stop there, it goes into the classic dooms as well

rancid bobcat
#

but hey, ||you can play Map 02 Underhalls over and over again!||

#

its kind of weird that the current doom 3 on bethesda store is better value than getting the entire BFG edition

#

I kinda wonder if my fascination with doom 3 ties to the fact that Dead Space 1 is one of my favorite sci fi horror games..

dark knot
#

I find doom 3 fascinating through the demon design, I take heavy inspiration from doom 3s art style, like, the way demons are built and such

short blade
#

So I noticed that Doom 3 BFG edition comes with Doom I and II, does that mean that if you buy Doom 3 BFG you can get the other skins too?

rancid bobcat
#

no

#

that collection didn't get updated with Slayer's Club goodies

#

the only way to get skins on PC is to get the Doom 1 and 2 Unity ports and "Doom 3" on bethesda.net client

#

and frankly you are WAY better off getting these three specific releases because Doom 1 and 2 ports in Doom 3 BFG are .. "sub par" compared to anything else and all for a higher price

scenic stratus
#

They're censored in bfg edition, among other issues.

#

Also totally agree about the flashlight, it ruined the tension of having to choose between the safety of a gun or the safety of light

rancid bobcat
#

alternatively if you have a switch/ps4 you're eligible for skins no matter the platform

restive delta
#

Yeah the DOOM 3 version in the Beth store is great value considering it's essentially the BFG Edition without DOOM and DOOM II

scenic stratus
#

Doesn't it cut d3s multiplayer too?

short blade
#

Damn so you actually have to buy each individual game.

scenic stratus
#

Huh this chat is still alive

dark knot
#

Mhm, you cant kill doom 3

scenic stratus
#

@scenic stratus D3 BFG is missing one map compared to Doom 3 + Resurrection of Evil

restive delta
#

If you want all the skins, yes. But together they cost less than the BFG Edition on Bethesda, and not a massive amount more than the BFG Edition on Steam

scenic stratus
#

(multiplayer)

restive delta
#

It depends what you own already to whether it's really worth it

scenic stratus
#

I know about the missing level

#

I was talking about d3s deathmatch. Afaik the latest Bethesda release (not bfg) cut it entirely.

short blade
#

And the BFG edition will get you the skin too?

#

Because not gonna lie, through the 3 skins, Doom 3 is one I would actually care about

restive delta
#

I only got all of them as they were a third off in that sale a few weeks ago for the Australia fire relief, plus I never played the Lost Mission. Oh and I think there might be some levels in the DOOM II port that are normally hard to find so I haven't played yet, I forgot what they're called though

short blade
#

But you know I'm mainly doing it for the game

restive delta
#

No, avoid the BFG Edition on the Bethesda store. It won't give you the skin. Get the one called DOOM 3 instead - it's basically the BFG Edition without DOOM and DOOM II. But it's the one that will give you the skin for Eternal

short blade
#

Oh really? That's weird

#

It isn't just the normal game?

cerulean stratus
#

It's a newer PC port

restive delta
cerulean stratus
#

BFG is an older port

restive delta
#

I think they renamed it because the BFG Edition was technically a package with 1 and 2 included, and specifically for XB360 and PS3

short blade
#

Right, but I mean does it do everything that BFG does?

#

except the package i mean mechanics

restive delta
#

This port is for XB1, PS4 and Switch (plus PC)

cerulean stratus
#

There's no multiplayer in the new DOOM 3 port

restive delta
#

Apart from that it's the same as the BFG Edition though - mounted flashlight, different lighting, 3, RoE and Lost Mission included

short blade
#

Ah thank you

cerulean stratus
#

You don't get DOOM or DOOM II either

short blade
#

Yeah that's fine considering I wouldn't get the skins with them anyways

#

and I don't play doom for its multiplayer anyways

scenic stratus
#

Wait isn't that "new Doom 3" just the BFG edition?

short blade
#

That's what they said yee

#

Except without the package of Doom 1 and 2 and multiplayer

cerulean stratus
#

New DOOM 3 port does not have that and multiplayer

#

Has everything else

short blade
#

And for 10 bucks that doesn't seem bad

cerulean stratus
#

Nope not at all

restive delta
#

It worked out pretty well for me - I never got the BFG Edition since it seemed pretty pricey at the time when all I'd get is the Lost Mission. So this new port was perfect at the price, especially since I got it on sale

short blade
#

I might do the same thing

#

hoping that the skin thing stays even AFTER the release of eternal

#

and that buying eternal on steam didn't screw me

restive delta
#

At full price the BFG Edition on Steam is nearly twice the price as the new DOOM 3 port, which is pretty crazy really

short blade
#

I mean it is 20 bucks on bethesda too

#

and it is still old on both
Unless they changed it

restive delta
#

Nah you should be fine with the skins since you'll log in with your Bethesda account for Eternal whatever platform

#

Yeah in the UK it's even crazier on Beth - BFG Edition there is £20, compared to £8 for the new port. And BFG is £15 on Steam

#

Pretty mad since these days 2016 is £15 too

short blade
#

Yeah that's kinda weird

slim rose
#

whyd they have to made it so confusing

short blade
#

For the money šŸ‘‰šŸ¼šŸ˜‰šŸ‘‰šŸ¼ šŸ’°

restive delta
#

It kind of seems pointless that the have the BFG Edition on Beth now. You'd think they could retire it with the new port. I guess they list it since presumably it's still being sold for XB360 and PS3

short blade
#

You'd think since the package doesn't even give you versions of the game that can be used for Eternal skins

restive delta
#

The way they called the new port "DOOM 3" on the store is confusing though I agree, because by the name you think you're getting the original DOOM 3

#

Yeah, for PC there's no reason for them to provide the BFG Edition on there now

short blade
#

Yeah and even then it is DooM 3, but with all the changes from the BFG edition having be considered "New"

#

Could just call it like Doom 3: Updated or something like that

#

Still showing that it has stuff like RoE

#

would be funny if they saw this

restive delta
#

Yes, considering the description says "Celebrate DOOM's 25th anniversary with the release of DOOM 3." They could have called it DOOM 3: 25th Anniversary Edition or something (even though it's not the 25th anniversary of 3 of course)

#

The details make you realise at least since is says "DOOM 3 includes the Resurrection of Evil and The Lost Missions expansion packs."

#

But if you just go by the title you could miss that and get the BFG Edition which is essentially pointless

unique ridge
#

It's even more confusing

scenic stratus
#

so does the doom 3 on the bethesda store include ROE? or is it just base game?

unique ridge
#

The original Doom 3 is the one with the flashlight and less ammo, the bfg edition was the one described above, and the one that's now just called "Doom 3" again is the BFG edition without Doom 1, 2, and multiplayer and has the Eternal benefits

scenic stratus
#

huh?

#

ok im confused. So the DOOM 3 that is bethesda covers all three skins?

dark knot
#

No, you should only get the red alternative

scenic stratus
#

AWWW so I have to buy Doom1,2 and 3?

#

jesus.... that sucks considering I own all 3 on steam already

dark knot
#

I'd say it's worth it, it's doom were talking about

slim rose
#

sounds more like Bethesda we're talkin bout

dark knot
#

True...

slim rose
#

its almost a scam

#

just the advertisment

scenic stratus
#

True that.... 20 bucks for 3 skins? I mean I am all about some cool skins but talk about screwing over the folks that supported you already on steam

rotund trench
#

it's basically like paying 5 dollars per skin, and then 10 dollars for the doom 3 skin

slim rose
#

i think you guys could buy some good eternal dlc with 20 dollars

rotund trench
#

I got the re-releases on my switch anyway so it wasn't a big deal to me

dark knot
#

True, now that I think about it, so, we do have to buy dlc

rotund trench
#

but I really wish the steam releases got Bethesda linking, but Bethesda would have made less money that way

#

ĀÆ_(惄)_/ĀÆ

terse marsh
#

I dont care about the classic skins

scenic stratus
#

I more like the card backs than the skin

slim rose
#

they arnt really great. Tbh i do like zombie slayer more lol

scenic stratus
#

just mind boggling that would not bring the collection to steam or offer it for steam users who already own it

rotund trench
#

for me it's about having everything

#

I probably won't really use the skins, but I do want them

scenic stratus
#

well they got me..... I just bought all 3

versed estuary
#

Welcome to the club =/

#

Enjoy the skins. And enjoy doom 3.

short blade
#

Wait.....so are we going to get a Doom 3: 30th year edition too? /s

meager pine
#

Quick question: Does Doom 3 have any form of Combat music? Cause the only music I've heard from the rerelease on Xbox is just the menu

versed estuary
#

Hmmm no?

#

I think it just the level music,

#

Since its supposed to set a level of ambiance to the horror. I could be wrong tho.

meager pine
#

I just wanna hear heavy metal

No it does not

Does Doom 3 require WiFi to play like D1 and D2?

scenic stratus
#

Wut

#

not if you use the versions not on the beth launcher

rancid bobcat
#

ha ha ha ha HA

#

I knew this "new" doom 3 would throw some confusion

basically, remember the xbo/ps4/switch versions of doom 1-3 released 6 months ago? its a pc version of that.

#

Doom 3 does occasionally have combat music, but its so rare

hidden elm
#

Lemme fix that cuz I forgot to add some details: Do you need WiFi to play Doom 3 on the switch?

rancid bobcat
#

no

#

its not as intrusive

#

offline play is perfectly fine

hidden elm
#

Ah thanks, cuz I can’t play D1 or D2 when I’m away from home unless I’m connected to WiFi

rancid bobcat
#

updates should've mitigated that..

hidden elm
#

I’ll test it out

restive delta
#

Well to be fair, as discussed in here about 11 hours ago, it is a confusing name. But once you look into the details you can see what the version includes anyway

#

I doubt I'll use the skins much either since there are plenty of cool skins anyway, but I have made use of The Lost Mission which I never played before, plus I'll play the Master Levels or whatever it is you get with the DOOM II port

ember sentinel
#

Just beat Doom 3 again. Yeet. Now i just need 64 and Eternal to complete the franchise.

plush tiger
#

It's also not true. You never needed to be connected to wifi to play the Switch ports of Doom 1/2 outside of first boot up

#

I still don't understand how that misconception thrived

#

did people just not try?

ember sentinel
#

Doom 3 does have combat music rarely, in the big server room where the Chaingunners, Archvile, and Revenant spawn before you fight Sabaoth

honest lynx
#

The first time you hear that archvile .... good times

ember sentinel
#

That creepy laugh is not fun lol

honest lynx
#

I remember just bfg'n that fool and yeeting him across the room

ember sentinel
#

My Soul Cube was saved especially for them. If not then a steady stream of Plasma to the face at point blank range.

Imagine if they put Pain Elementals in Doom 3 doomguy_profile_r

scenic stratus
#

A few mods put it in

oak copper
#

Is there a mod that makes the game more like 2016/ the older games. You know has actual action

scenic stratus
#

Tweak Sikkmod settings

honest lynx
#

@oak copper you dont like jump scares ?!?!?!

oak copper
#

That's not the issue. It's just incredibly jank. The shooting feels wrong

honest lynx
#

I think the point is to feel like a weak janky marine just trying to survive

oak copper
#

I guess. Just feels so not Doom

versed estuary
#

Doom universe, but you are just a soldier, no one special

ember sentinel
#

It definitely feels like Doom in the second half. You can run and blast through it like usual

oak copper
#

Is Perfected Doom more like the other games?

scenic stratus
#

Heh.
Sort of.
Play at the easiest difficulty

#

I ain't kidding

oak copper
#

Really

scenic stratus
#

Try it

#

Also, very variable bugs might ensue

oak copper
#

Ok

coral solstice
#

it kept corrupting its quicksaves for me

scenic stratus
#

For me Berserk doesn't work
Which breaks Hell

plush tiger
#

Doom 3's pretty easy overall

frozen nova
#

try nightmare

scenic stratus
#

Still pretty easy, you get the soul cube from the start

plush tiger
#

Yeah but Nightmare is like

#

a joke like it always is

restive delta
#

Yeah, the veteran difficulty could be more spicy if you ask me

plush tiger
#

yeah exactly

restive delta
#

And yes there is kind of music in DOOM 3, but it's mostly ambient industrial kinda stuff

#

I'm tempted to try RoE without using the artifact. That could be pretty interesting

#

Guess I'd need it for a few of the traps, but beyond that I guess it would be plausible

ember sentinel
#

Veteran was a cakewalk

boreal adder
#

Yeah I never go below that anymore

#

Since, like, my second playthrough

stiff slate
#

roe is a tiny bit harder in nightmare with no source of healing except for the medical consoles
when you get enough upgrades for the artifact its ez though

restive delta
#

Does the artifact not start fully loaded for nightmare then?

frozen nova

Doom 3 is a good game but not gonna lie its shotgun deserves the flak it gets

#

not the ssg tho, that’s still bae

frozen nova
#

thats RoE

pure wagon
#

Pro ROE wen

frozen nova
#

the shotgun is fixable pretty easily at least the spread

#

I dunno about the rng, I think thats hardcoded

#

but I can increase the base damage per pellet

versed estuary
#

Sounds like that can be broken tho

frozen nova
#

what do you mean?

#

I can adjust the number of pellets, the base damage of the pellets, and the spread

versed estuary
#

You said increase damage of pellet, so I thought like walking up one spotting pinkies kinda op

frozen nova
#

by default
pellets - 13
damage - 14 per pellet
spread - 22(!)

versed estuary
#

22 definitely feels higher

frozen nova
#

even 10 is too much

#

I set it to 5 or 4.5

versed estuary
#

Much more reasonable

frozen nova
#

damage is still a little too much at that point
so what I did was
pellets - 14
damage - 10 per pellet
spread - 5

#

though im not a good judge of weapon balance if I make it myself

frozen nova
#

fuck these bricks in particular

slim rose
#

those are some....nice bricks

I can't stand looking at the fists
the finger posing is terrible
it even clips into the palm

scenic stratus

I agree

slim rose
#

you gotta admit the swoosh sounds are on point tho

scenic stratus
#

The fists themselves are fine as weapons

nimble wren

it's the angle of the first set of finger joints
it's way too steep

scenic stratus
#

Doom 3 Berserk is best berserk unless Eternal outclasses it in awesome

#

You were a perfectly normal marine, two seconds ago. Now you're ripping apart Knights with your bare hands, and all your weapons instakill 99% of the monsters

Agreed. And it was great how it made other weapons more effective

Doom3guy with Berserk VS Doomslayer would be the ultimate FPS battle

Doom 3 but Ɨ10 monsters and you always have Berserk

frozen nova
#

Enabling weapon damage on and doubling the health of the cyberdemon, while doubling the kills required to charge the soul cube changes the final boss battle dramatically

#

it also makes the soul cube more valuable as a tool rather than just a means of deleting one enemy

scenic stratus
#

Aight can I do that with Sikkmod? doomguy_god_hd

frozen nova
#

probably but im not interested

#

I dont need prettier doom 3

scenic stratus
#

Sikkmod isn't just graphics

#

It's more of a mutator mod

frozen nova
#

about the only thing I liked was being able to carry medkits

#

but the game is easy enough as is

scenic stratus
#

There's also Pain Elementals and other classic enemy renditions
Which is cool

#

I just don't get what percentage I have to set for them

boreal adder
#

I played a mod called Phobos recently that ended with a really cool very Doom 3-ish rendition of the pain elemental
I don't know if it would be the same one though... had lots of tentacles šŸ˜„

scenic stratus
#

Still need to try out Phobos. Does it run in vanilla or does it need Dhewm3?

frozen nova
#

Phobos does not run on dhewm3

#

its one of the reasons i havent tried it yet

#

once you go dhewm3 you cant go back to vanilla

scenic stratus
#

1% of mods work on Dhewm3

#

Which is why I ain't trying that shit

rocky acorn
#

Despite me having officially moved on to Doom 64, I have decided that the re-release of Doom 3 is enough for me to revisit it on vanilla, as well as actually go through with Resurrection of Evil. The Lost Missions thing will be a nice side-dish too, to see me through the rest of february.

#

Also what is Dhewm3

frozen nova
#

dhewm3 is a doom 3 source port

scenic stratus
#

Supports very little mods, but overall cool

little raven
#

What does it do

frozen nova
#

fix bugs, improve some compatibility stuff

little raven
#

Ah

rocky acorn
#

Ah, oki. Actually, I don't need to replay Doom 3 for real. I could just do RoE.

frozen nova
#

I did notice some minor differences from vanilla

#

for example some odd enemy behavior is no longer present

little raven
#

Do the spiders still exist

#

Those things are aids

frozen nova
#

of course its not like the game content is changed

little raven
#

Aids that have cancer

scenic stratus
#

Does it improve the ugly and lowres menu?

frozen nova
#

the menu is low res?

rancid bobcat

no, it corrects the aspect ratio

so the cursor and PDA ain't stretched

Doom 3 Alpha was the better shotgun

Gonna be honest, I kinda hate using the Grabber against those blue-fire imps.

For once I feel bad for archviles, that was a design option

slim rose

LOL

#

If you enable weapon damage on the cyberdemon in doom 3 and kill it, it tries to ragdoll but it gets confused and goes into a t-pose at the same time

rocky acorn
#

Lol that is great. That's like when you find an angry cat hissing at you, and you make it stop by spritzing it with water

frozen nova
#

I just realized why the super shotgun didnt make it into doom 3 vanilla

#

in doom 3 weapons dont share ammo

#

every weapon runs off its own ammo type

#

they wanted to keep that consistent probably

rocky acorn
#

Too bad they made the shotgun useless outside of coughing distance.

charred fox
#

Reminds me of those goats that freeze and topple over when they hear something loud

frozen nova
#

cyberdemon has no death animation outside of the cutscene that triggers only in the last level

Lol

doom 3 cyberdemon vs doom 2016 doomslayer

Cyber, he can't be hurt by anything but the soul cube

Just make the 3 Cyber the BFG Edition one, then 2016 will win easy spooky

#

I'm kind of interested in their heights actually. The cut-scene makes the 3 one look massive, and when you're in that huge cavern it still does. But when spawned in like SuperVision's video, I guess they're pretty similar in height. Maybe the 3 one is a bit taller since it doesn't hunch so much

Reached the hell part of Doom 3 Resurrection of Evil. The Bloodstone is a bit unbalanced ainnit, even on Veteran.

BFG Edition?

#

I'm bored

#

starting a new playthrough through dhewm3

#

magazines, PDAs

#

what is this, 22nd century envisioned by people in mid 2000s?

#

4:3 monitors EVERYWHERE

#

one really cool thing about dhewm3 is that it brings back the EAX support, metal hallways have great echoing effect

rocky acorn
#

No, re-release.

rancid bobcat
#

so, technically still BFG Edition

rocky acorn

Why is Martian Buddy lockers code ||0508|| not a pin for this channel?

restive delta
#

I wonder if anyone saved the Martian Buddy website

#

Fortunately I played enough I remember the code spooky For the BFG Edition they put it in the email subject anyway, since the website got yeeted by then

rancid bobcat
#

I guess this works too

restive delta
#

Nice

rancid bobcat
#

if you ever get bored

#

and for some reason have a Voodoo

strange haven
restive delta
#

I don't even remember the one in RoE spooky

limpid phoenix
#

Code ||0508|| unlocks just one of them tho right?

restive delta
#

No, both Martian Buddy ones in DOOM 3 have the same code

limpid phoenix
#

Oh yeah just the Martian buddy ones

#

Did they even have any good loot in them?

restive delta
#

Yes, first one (in Administration) has ||the chaingun|| second one (in Delta 2b) has ||the BFG||

#

I still wish doom 3 had subtitles, and i mean as an update, not a mod

#

And if classic doom 1 and 2 have an option to use cheat codes but with achivements turned off, why can’t they do the same for doom 3 and 2016?

versed estuary
#

It just wasn’t a priority. Nothing else to it

frozen nova
#

maybe if devs didnt lock down all their games with arcane compression and encryptions we wouldnt have this problem

rocky acorn
#

Well, hit the Hell stage on RoE. Let's see if I can polish this bad boy off.

rocky acorn
#

Go down like a beetch, Maelbolge and Bertruger.

rocky acorn
#

Now for Lost Mission.

little raven
#

Just played with cheat codes no one thought to put in a reaction when you blow up someone right next to another person

rocky acorn
#

And Lost Mission is done.

#

Wow, less than 3 hours for the whole thing lol

#

With that said i've finished up with all the Doom 3 shiz.

restive delta
#

Yeah Lost Mission is pretty short

rocky acorn
#

I mostly enjoyed it, although there was this one room where I got back to back archviles in a small room. That was cheap.

versed estuary
#

Killing all people in doom 3 is mercy change my mind

#

Since at the end they mention you are the only survivor. Meaning everyone you met dies anyway

rocky acorn
#

What's funny about that is how Lost Mission kinda retcons that in it's ending.

slim rose
#

i love killing the npcs

#

best part of the game

rocky acorn
#

For me, it's using hand grenades on the zombie sec

versed estuary
#

NPCs. Man another survivor. I thought I was alone
Shotgun meet man

#

Lowkey I did it just to see if they indeed died. And well it worked

slim rose
#

Lol both Halflife and this game. "I thought i was alone, Ima just stay here and wait for help" pumps shotgun and shreads him

#

Nope!

restive delta
#

yeah I love spamming z-sec with nades

#

I don't mind the archies quite so much in the Lost Mission, since if you get close the double barrel can toast them in a few shots

rocky acorn
#

you have to basically kiss them on the cheek to reliably do so however.

dark knot
#

The shotguns in doom 3 are so bad it's funny, ligit they can form a perfect circle around the enemy

coral solstice
#

ROE's SSG really makes up for the regular shotgun

restive delta
#

And with berserk from the artifact, it's basically one shot on everything doomguy_grin

limpid phoenix
#

How does the shotgun make so much noise and so little damage

vale kettle
#

I've never had those issues with the normal shotgun.

#

Of course If yall are talking doom 3 non bfg i wouldn't know I've only played the bfg edition and have scored over 25000 in super turbo turkey puncher 3

limpid phoenix
#

Is the rerelease good? Was thinking about getting it on switch

vale kettle
#

I want it on switch but I dont know if it works like bfg edition or just normal doom 3

#

Because the both work differently

scenic stratus
#

The rerelease is literally bfg edition with less features

limpid phoenix
#

I’ve heard it’s like the original

#

Oh

vale kettle
#

Uhhhhhh so bfg mechanics???

scenic stratus
#

What

vale kettle
#

Or normal doom 3 mechanics

boreal adder
#

lol I just pictured a big engineer type with the BFG on one of those car lifts

#

poking at the underside in overalls

scenic stratus
#

It's bfg edition but it doesn't include the classics and doesn't have multiplayer. Other than that it's exactly the same

vale kettle
#

Ahh gotcha

#

Dlc?

boreal adder
#

yes
I at least know that much for sure

vale kettle
#

Ooooooooooooooh

boreal adder
#

presumably with BFG's alterations to Resurrection of EVIL

#

no biosuit mechanics in the sewer level, no hell filter in Delta Labs, shortened Hell

#

probably because BFG can't run modded scripts
I remember that it can only run mods without custom scripts, anyway

wintry spruce
#

just finished my first playthrough. it took less than 9 hours in total. Cyberdemon was very underwhelming unfortunately

#

great horror game

#

not really Doom though

boreal adder
#

yeah unfortunately even those who love the game don't love the boss

#

I think it's fairly doom. not overwhelmingly doom. more Doom 1 ish than Doom 2 ish for sure

wintry spruce
#

finished Ep 3 of Doom 1 as well

boreal adder
#

but the emphasis is still more on you shooting the demons than you cowering in fear from them

#

I play Doom 3 and I still feel like I'm the one hunting

wintry spruce
#

there is an imp behind almost every door just waiting to pounce

#

and then it gets extremely predictable and annoying

#

didn't help with my phobia of spiders either

boreal adder
#

annoys some people, I can understand that. it doesn't annoy me

wintry spruce
#

its just that in those moments its a cheap hit that you have to take

boreal adder
#

I also don't find it very scary so I may be looking at it in a totally different way

#

honestly you can avoid the hit if you just expect there to always be an imp there
but that could still annoy some people

#

I like the game more when you get towards the middle and the end

wintry spruce
#

i find it scary as in I don't ever want to be there, plus the atmospheric sound track is pretty chilling

boreal adder
#

more of the tougher enemies start showing up

wintry spruce
#

I agree with you there

boreal adder
#

I'd compare it to doom 1 but not really Inferno, more like they tried to make Shores of Hell into a full game

wintry spruce
#

the hitscan soldiers and the ridiculous screen shake

boreal adder
#

yeah, when those start being replaced with the tentacle dudes then stuff gets interesting

wintry spruce
#

i found out that you can duck under the tentacles

boreal adder
#

šŸ˜„

wintry spruce
#

then it takes 5 shotgun shells or more because in this game the shotgun is T R A S H

boreal adder
#

honestly the tentacles would be a really interesting enemy to put in 2016 or Eternal, cause they're all about area denial

#

actually I always found if I shoot 'em once while they run at me and then one more time as I duck the tentacle they go down

#

...usually

wintry spruce
#

funny how I bought the BFG edition two years ago and only now finished Doom 3

#

maybe even earlier

#

at least I'm getting it done. Doom 1 episode 4 and the majority of Doom 2 to go

boreal adder
#

hah, Doom ep4 will wreck you

wintry spruce
#

yeah I know

#

from the moment you pick up that shotgun

boreal adder
#

I only got through it once and I still don't know how

#

oh the second map's even more insane. cyberdemon

wintry spruce
#

was it McGee that did Episode 4?

boreal adder
#

you know, I don't actually know

#

:checks wiki:

#

yep looks like you're right

#

ooh, but not all of them

#

I'd say that's interesting, but, it's just a list of names

wintry spruce
#

and then he went on to do the Alice series that I love. especially Madness Returns

boreal adder
#

I really wanted to play those somehow. never got the chance at the time

wintry spruce
#

well he's working on a third entry as well as remasters of the first two I believe

#

haven't kept up since a few months ago

fallow ocean
#

If I played the BFG Edition all the way is playing the original game worth going back for?

boreal adder
#

depends who you ask
I like the original flashlight mechanic because I'm insane, and the original puts a little more emphasis on using it to hunt for ammo and supplies
but not much more
Resurrection of Evil also has a few good parts that were for some reason cut from the BFG release

#

on the other fork of the tail Lost Mission is a fairly fun couple hours šŸ™‚

#

so I would just say I'm glad I have both versions

plush tiger
#

I think BFG is a better game but it just comes down to like

#

Would you rather atmosphere or action

versed estuary
#

I don’t like games that are unnecessarily dark

#

Dark doesn’t equal scary.

#

Which is the issue with doom 64 and OG doom 3. They think dark equals scary

scenic stratus
#

I think doom 1 does that too on higher difficulties glarethink

fallow ocean
#

What was removed from resurrection in the BFG Edition?

nimble wren
#

the "blue" part of Hell, I heard

coral solstice
#

that was one of the best parts of ROE

boreal adder
#

naw, dark doesn't equal scary, but dark is cool for dark's own sake sometimes
that's what Doom 3 does

#

then again I am a dangerous nocturnal beast so you go ahead and get all weak-fleshy-human-sunworshippy on me

#

if nothing else I'll eat well šŸ˜„

#

Who knew doom 3 was VR ready game

#

I just played it in VR

#

why does doom 3 in VR beat hands down any AAAtitle made for VR to date

#

It even beats Bethesda's own take on Doom VR

#

you hear that Bethesda '' modders are doing a better job

#

we love your games and history ' At least i do '' but can you guys try just a lil harder

#

A lone modder just shat all over you guys

#

PS HIRE the modder

little raven
#

Vfr was a fucking joke wouldn’t be surprised if 3 was better in vr

frigid token
#

It is

#

i just played it

little raven
#

No left handed mode seriously what were they thinking

frigid token
#

I had tears i my eyes cause my old man passed away before he could see it

#

it was that good

little raven
#

Plus no vr glory kills

#

Too bad i have no vr set 3 looks like it was made for vr

frigid token
#

The options they give you for VR

#

the moder thought of everything

#

he has options they dont give you in act titles

little raven
#

I think carmac left id to work with oculus so doomthonk

frigid token
#

yep he did

#

laid the ground work for network VR

little raven
#

Were lucky to be in the universe where he makes doom instead of killing us all

frigid token
#

I like carmac

#

why do people say he is sellout

#

the guy just made the right steps in life

#

and now sits as he should

#

i mean how is that a sellout

boreal adder
#

like an infinite yardstick

frigid token
#

and what did he sellout

boreal adder
#

I mean, he is like an infinite yardstick

frigid token
#

right

#

that fits

boreal adder
#

Ruler of the universe

#

get it?

frigid token
#

yep lmfao

#

oh btw name of mod

#

Doom 3 BFG VR Fully possessed

#

updates now and then

#

it is pretty smack on atm

boreal adder
#

eeeh, I don't do VR. Too prone to migraines

#

I'd check it out if I did

#

but I need not head pain

frigid token
#

I have been too mars

#

i got too get out of here

#

XD I have seen shit man

#

soldiers with ptsd here's me' over here with D3ts

#

Id software needs too put up note under their main user

#

making D3 grate again

little raven
#

Let’s not forget that Romero’s levels were the best in doom 1

limpid phoenix
#

Doom 2 earth levels were stinky

frigid token
#

yeah but i wish they would stop trying too recreate the first game over and over

#

yes its a classic yes it is doom

#

but ffs it is 2020

#

your asking for a 25 year old new game at this point

#

all it will do is make it into and arena arcade shooter

boreal adder
#

Doom 2 had a couple good Earth levels, but the city maps that were just square space with a few nonsensical buildings I had a hard time figuring out

frigid token
#

that will die and fail bad once everyone gets over the pun

little raven
#

Well the chasm is probably the worst level in all of video gaming history

frigid token
#

Doom 3 was going in the right direction

#

doom eternal has no future because it asked you too play a 25 yeal old game

little raven
#

It was great but the first half (the part I’m in) is kinda boring

frigid token
#

with some new tricks

little raven
#

Doom 3 is also pretty glitchy and the graphics aged like milk

frigid token
#

no and how

#

it still stands today

scenic stratus

Never experienced literally a single glitch in doom 3

little raven

How

scenic stratus

But idk about bfg edition, don't use it

frigid token
#

I could make it glitch

little raven
#

Im on vanilla constantly textures disappear go in and out like the game is having a stroke

#

Multiple crashes

frigid token
#

shotgun point blank too a skeleton near a wall in a corner was funny as hell

#

pun intended '

scenic stratus
#

That has never happened to me and I'm on the original too

little raven
#

And holy fuck those stupid ass spiders

frigid token
#

yeah man

#

waiting too run into that lvl in vr

#

act you just terrified me

#

AHHHHHHHHH and the dark walk AHHH

little raven
#

Lost souls are genuinely terrifying imo

frigid token
#

they came from doom 64

little raven
#

Same with those baby things

frigid token
#

the ones in doom3

little raven
#

Doom 64 is scarier then 3 most of the time

frigid token
#

they behave differently and have a familiar look

#

doom 3 is doom 64 imo

#

more so then classic

#

they took the sound scape thing

#

and ran with it '

little raven
#

3 is not the worst game but no where near the best

frigid token
#

nope

little raven
#

Better then thy flesh and tnt

frigid token
#

doom 64 is for me

#

its just so much more horrifying

little raven
#

Worse then 64 1 2 and 2016

frigid token
#

the sounds have been with me for years
