I searched for a while but the IdTech4 File unpacker doesnt work bcause the BFG Edition has no .PK4 files

Just beat doom 3 on ps4

I still don’t understand what designers were thinking plastering all that cell ammo everywhere

In og you get plasma rifle from “plasma mom” Theresa Chazar’s locker

#

But in bfg the plasma rifle is just

Right before her office

Anyhoo 6,5 hours, not bad

restive delta Feb 23, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

Where is this plasma you're talking about? But anyway, you can get plasma in Alpha 3 and 4 anyway in OG

#

Six and a half hours is pretty fast for a console run I'd say

rancid bobcat Feb 23, 2020, 6:34 PM

I found it in a room right before Lost Souls reveal, blatanly thrown on top of a crate with a lot of ammo

I play doom3 a lot but I still get confused and get stuck in some levels and I still scored 6 hours 30 minutes

scenic stratus Feb 23, 2020, 10:24 PM

#

I liked the 2 Hell levels but the story was confusing and made no sense to me

#

like what did that guy do if there were 2 portals in the overall story

#

one was the hell hole and the other was a old Marsian portal so what was the threat in Lost Mission

#

Roe is a standalone game. You don't need bfg to play it

#

I have the original disc on a shelf here

viral pebble Feb 23, 2020, 10:29 PM

#

What flamey said what IS the threat/story in lost mission,

scenic stratus Feb 23, 2020, 10:36 PM

#

yeah because the original guy stopped the main threat which was still chronologically AFTER the Lost Mission marine stopped the portal in the Hell castle so what was the point

rancid bobcat Feb 23, 2020, 10:51 PM

#

... shutting down a super secret portal that could leak to Earth?

#

didn't pay much attention, honestly

#

now, one thing I really don't like in doom 3, other than the RNG shitgun

#

.. my armor never dropped to 0 on Veteran

#

because it's USELESS

#

I am at worst dropped to 5hp while armor chipped away from 125 to 120

scenic stratus Feb 23, 2020, 10:56 PM

#

I hated the PDAs a lot more because it's something you have to use... like there are lockers with powerful weapons early in the game. However, you need to listen to each audio log for 3 minutes for a 3 digit code

#

also I found out the hard way reading them doesn't pause the game because monsters can still go into the room after you while reading lol

boreal adder Feb 23, 2020, 11:12 PM

#

I think what they said in lost mission was that the experimental portal could have reached earth

#

But the story was pretty much a condensed version of half life blue shift with just a few changes anyway

scenic stratus Feb 23, 2020, 11:16 PM

#

So if the portal in Lost Mission could reach Earth, why didn't Betruger use that rather than call for reenforcement ships

#

to reach earth

#

yeah I enjoy Lost Mission but it ruins the original campaign if I think about it too much

unique sky Feb 23, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

So say I wanted to get Doom 3 on Steam, should I get the normal version or BFG version?

nimble wren Feb 23, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

depends on your personal preference, really
I got the BFG edition because I knew I'd prefer the mounted flashlight

scenic stratus Feb 23, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

I'm on PS4 so I never got the luxury of choosing lol

nimble wren Feb 23, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

"Rather than offer you the illusion of free choice, I will take the liberty of choosing for you..."

restive delta Feb 23, 2020, 11:48 PM

#

@rancid bobcat That's fast for a first playthrough. But yeah the base stuff had some real copy-paste from the main campaign, just touched up a few bits here and there and changed some colours

#

As for the portal thing, I'd have to listen to all the stuff again, especially the Dr. WhateverHisName that opens the portal for you, since he leaves a disc explaining some stuff

#

Which, I might add, was stupidly quiet, so I could barely hear it over ambient sounds

#

Anyway I seem to recall that for some reason that portal was abandoned for the main Delta one, because that was progressing faster in terms of the experimentations. Yet it was still a threat for some reason.

viral pebble Feb 23, 2020, 11:53 PM

#

I have the BFG on the Xbox 360 (2011 model) and the original version on my laptop

#

I honestly like the OG better, even with the stupid no duct tape on mars thing

restive delta Feb 23, 2020, 11:54 PM

#

But yeah thinking about it, it doesn't much much sense - the "demons" captured the Exis teleporter, so why would Betruger not use that to go directly to Earth, instead of using the main Delta teleporter and then after the Hell Hole?

frosty holly Feb 23, 2020, 11:54 PM

@unique sky The OG. I dont like the BFG Edition

You’d be lucky to find one online

restive delta Feb 24, 2020, 12:02 AM

#

Right, taking a look on some wikis, it seems that Betruger couldn't wait for the Exis teleporter to be completed because Swann was arriving, so he had to use the Delta teleporter instead. So basically through hacking files, Meyers learned of Betruger's plan and wanted to overload the Exis teleporter, but the Mars invasion happened before he could. So the Exis teleporter was a potential threat that needed to be shut down to ensure a direct invasion to Earth could not happen. Still doesn't really explain why Betruger couldn't focus his efforts to the Exis teleporter once he started the invasion, since part of the Exis teleporter was in Hell by that point, and the Bravo Team marine managed to destroy it by overloading it, so presumably it could be operated

@restive delta so basically the Lost Mission marine saved earth from being invaded and the original Doom 3 marine saved Mars from being invaded... they are both heroes for the same invasion, that's actually pretty epic to think about

#

I didn't like the RoE marine because all he did really was start things back up again, he fixed a problem he caused

heady vortex Feb 24, 2020, 1:00 AM

#

finished lost mission, now on RoE for my 1 level per day till release

#

I think the Guardian from Lost mission is a better boss fight than the dumb seeker thing in the main campaign

scenic stratus Feb 24, 2020, 1:01 AM

#

nah it was too easy imo, all it took was 3 charged BFG shots and it died instantly

heady vortex Feb 24, 2020, 1:01 AM

#

gaurdian took 6 shots and was still chasing me.

#

in fact I think I hit him 10 times before switching to dbl barrel

#

I also died once because i suck with a controller

scenic stratus Feb 24, 2020, 1:02 AM

#

I felt like the only boss that was difficult for me was the guardian from the original game, everything else was ridiculously easy for me to beat

#

because by that time you should have gotten so many rockets and BFG cells

heady vortex Feb 24, 2020, 1:03 AM

#

hmm, it was like 2 rocket shots to his blue whatever was all i needed. hardest boss fight is sabaoth I think

scenic stratus Feb 24, 2020, 1:03 AM

#

yeah that BFG thing is horrible when airborne

#

does damage when it's up there because of the tracing technology

#

and if you shoot it you could kill yourself if too close (I did this twice somehow lol)

fading summit Feb 24, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

any tips for doing doom 3 on nightmare?

scenic stratus Feb 24, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

for nightmare your HP goes down to 25 but you start of with the soul cube to negate that

#

so only use it on the shotgunners and that tentacle commando because the cube instakills anything in it's way

#

and regains you to 100 HP

fading summit Feb 24, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

jesus, chaingunners are gonna be worst then hell then

scenic stratus Feb 24, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

yeah it'll only take 4 hits and you die if you're at the bottom 25 by then

#

if that's the case just hide by a wall corner and use the soul cube

#

it will fly to the nearest target

#

OH and it goes without saying archvilles should be prime examples on who to use the cube on, in later levels it can sometimes summon hell knights

fading summit Feb 24, 2020, 1:21 AM

fuk

Zombie Commandos?

scenic stratus Feb 24, 2020, 1:34 AM

#

yeah they are so annoying that's why I always hug a wall and chip at their health till they die... and sometimes I let the sentry bots do all the work

#

the sentry bots don't get the respect they deserve tbh they are the GOAT of Doom 3

nimble wren Feb 24, 2020, 1:36 AM

#

even in a normal game, I use the Soul Cube on archviles if I can

wind yoke Feb 24, 2020, 1:36 AM

#

Also, just in case you don't know; there are absolutely no medkits on Nightmare. It's the kind of skill level that makes you feel absolutely hopeless.

slim rose Feb 24, 2020, 1:36 AM

coral solstice Feb 24, 2020, 1:37 AM

#

not even remotely fair, just like classic Nightmare

scenic stratus Feb 24, 2020, 1:37 AM

#

the good news however is that there's a good amount of health stations in between levels and you have the soul cube to keep regaining HP

wind yoke Feb 24, 2020, 1:37 AM

#

Yeah, the health stations still work.

fervent crest Feb 24, 2020, 1:38 AM

#

At least classic nightmare is fun, to a degree

wind yoke Feb 24, 2020, 1:38 AM

#

But considering the draining health and the high amount of damage enemies deal, it won't help much.

#

At least there's no permadeath in Doom 3.

fervent crest Feb 24, 2020, 1:39 AM

#

Yeah the permadeath is annoying

#

Especially since it takes your weapons away as well

wind yoke Feb 24, 2020, 1:40 AM

#

Is Doom 3 easier in the BFG ediiton?

#

I think it is.

coral solstice Feb 24, 2020, 1:41 AM

#

too easy

#

BFG Edition even cuts out an entire area or two

wind yoke Feb 24, 2020, 1:41 AM

#

I guess beating Nightmare in the BFG edition isn't that much an accomplishment then? I have beaten it, and can show the achievement as proof, but...

restive delta Feb 24, 2020, 1:45 AM

#

@scenic stratus Well kind of, but considering Betruger was going to get to Earth by using ships of the fleet that was called in, the DOOM 3 Marina still saved Earth in a way

#

As for the bosses, you could cheese them anyway. If you charge a full BFG just after entering the Guardian of Hell fight, hit it, then use a few rockets, it will go down before the seekers are launched

#

And for the Sabaoth, I believe if you can hit its first BFG shot it'll cause it massive self damage, and you can then finish it off with the Soul Cube instantly

#

Not something I've done successfully, but nonetheless, if you use the Soul Cube anyway I don't think it takes many rockets to kill after.

wind yoke Feb 24, 2020, 1:50 AM

#

I actually killed him on Nightmare without using the Soul Cube. I used it on a Cacodemon before confronting him.

#

Died many times before succeeding though.

#

Minor accomplishment aside...

little raven Feb 24, 2020, 1:57 AM

Why do there have to be shield guys in doom 3

#

i've seen tennis balls that don't bounce as much as a Doom 3 grenade

wind yoke Feb 24, 2020, 2:01 AM

#

I can't imagine how much more they would bounce if they were fired from a grenade launcher.

versed estuary Feb 24, 2020, 2:01 AM

#

Bro those grenades I’ve killed me more than the demons

wind yoke Feb 24, 2020, 2:01 AM

#

I actually didn't bother using them much because I just liked using the guns.

#

So I didn't know how bouncy they were until much later.

nimble wren Feb 24, 2020, 2:07 AM

#

I used like 10 grenades to try to kill one z-sec and I barely used them after that

#

I think I ended up having to just shoot him

restive delta Feb 24, 2020, 2:14 AM

#

Yeah especially early game I like to use the grenades on z-sec, especially shotgunners, but sometimes it takes 5 grenades because they just don't want to bounce in the right direction spooky

#

Though the machine gun works fairly well, and once you get plasma it does the job too. And even rockets, but I usually only do that if there's at least two close together

yerah brah good chat

rancid bobcat Feb 24, 2020, 7:42 AM

Once I pretended that I have a grenade launcher it made using grenades easier and less suicide-bomby

playing Doom 3: BFG edition again.....just got to the introduction of the Lost souls

Doom 3's variation of the Lost soul is definitely the creepiest lost_soul

rancid bobcat Feb 24, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

And not even pain elemental in sight

worldly flame Feb 24, 2020, 8:24 AM

#

which is odd when you think about it...with such a creepy and disturbing atmosphere....the pain elemental would be a prime pick to appear....but no

frozen nova Feb 24, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

no but they did keep the commandos

#

and they come in an even more annoying variety

worldly flame Feb 24, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

oh yeah, i remember the commandos...chainguns and intestine whips or something like that

frozen nova Feb 24, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

arch viles too because nothing is sacred

#

though I guess its fair that there are no pain elementals

#

given they appeared in doom 64 with a vengeance

worldly flame Feb 24, 2020, 8:30 AM

#

revenants....zombie soliders....commandos...cacodemons (really just angry balloons)....lost souls....mancubus....archviles...and pinky...those are the staples I remember reappearing in Doom 3

the other demons that appeared were new demons exclusive to the game

rancid bobcat Feb 24, 2020, 8:39 AM

#

Revenants are pushovers

#

Esp if you aim plasma gun at the head

#

Honestly the most dangerous enemies are shotgunners and chaingunners

manic iron Feb 24, 2020, 8:42 AM

#

Archviles are a push over tho

#

Cauae you got the soul cube by the time you see them

#

And the BFG

frozen nova Feb 24, 2020, 8:43 AM

#

doom 3 as a whole is pretty easy

#

enemies dont have a ton of health and weapons can do a lot of damage

#

the archvile went from having 700 health in classic, to 300 in d3

#

caco is a joke

rancid bobcat Feb 24, 2020, 8:45 AM

#

My memories of first time seeing doom3 is funny
It was on a local newspaper-like gaming budget magazine, an article with cover image being that shot of the pinkie eating a fat zombie in the bathroom

#

Then I had a CGW issue that had a massive article hyping up doom 3

#

Including a storyboard for a cutscene that never made to retail

#

... I can scan it later

Then I got “doom 3” (which was actually bootlegged doom 3 alpha that also came with pr boom and megawads like Memento Mori oddly enough)

Could not understand how to play it

i never found Doom 3 scary...a friend once told me....things are a lot less frightening when looking down the sights of a high caliber gun

side panel opens and zombie stumbles towards me....I blow em away with the shotgun

that being said...it has atmosphere...it's creepy, it's unsettling at times, the ambience and atmosphere are there, but it's not scary to me

scenic stratus Feb 25, 2020, 6:02 AM

For my first playthrough, the jumpscares get me, and I'm okay with that. Not many jumpscares get me anymore

#

Even when I know they're coming they can still get me

worldly flame Feb 25, 2020, 6:06 AM

#

yep, the jumpscares do still sometimes get me, but then i push it aside and still blow em away with one of the many weapons that the marine gets....if it wasn't a Doom game and was more of a first person survival horror....that would be great for being scary because as I said....it has tons of creepy and unsettling moments

the introduction to the Lost souls is one of the creepiest moments ever in the game

charred fox Feb 25, 2020, 6:56 AM

The fact that you can overcome fear with some nice buckshots is one of the great factors about doom 3

After going over it it just sounds like the bfg tried to change the game from the og design decisions

nimble wren Feb 25, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

somewhat
I guess you're referring to the mounted flashlight, increased ammo, and added light sources

#

I think they're good changes, except for maybe the ammo
I heard it was 50% more ammo
maybe only 25% would've been better

frozen nova Feb 25, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

I have no idea why there is increased ammo in bfg ed

#

you were never strapped for ammo in the original except for the chaingun

#

added light sources OR mounted flashlight
we did NOT need both

haughty halo Feb 25, 2020, 7:51 PM

#

agreed

frozen nova Feb 25, 2020, 7:52 PM

#

funny enough bfg ed forgot to fix the important stuff

#

like the pathetic boss fights

nimble wren Feb 25, 2020, 7:54 PM

#

I have the feeling they were addressing some complaints they received
maybe some people just wanted to use certain weapons all the time

frozen nova Feb 25, 2020, 7:54 PM

#

the original game showered you with ammo

#

and the ammo caps were ridiculous

nimble wren Feb 25, 2020, 7:55 PM

#

are the ammo caps the same between the two?

frozen nova Feb 25, 2020, 7:55 PM

#

yes but now the ammo in your gun is separate from the total ammo

#

and also all the pickups give double ammo

#

they also added more pickups

#

the only ammo you got little of in the original was for the chaingun

nimble wren Feb 25, 2020, 7:56 PM

#

I wonder if it's because of people not exploring enough to find ammo, plus not switching up which weapons they used

haughty halo Feb 25, 2020, 7:56 PM

#

Also the BFG edition added performance issues.

frozen nova Feb 25, 2020, 7:56 PM

about the only good thing bfg ed does is that it runs at 120hz

When it doesn't suddenly drop in framerate for no actual reason anyway

bfg ed also brought DOOM to modern consoles

#

i think

scenic stratus Feb 26, 2020, 5:22 AM

#

What if you wanted 60fps but God said: Nintendo Switch

fossil owl Feb 26, 2020, 6:04 AM

#

how good is doom 3?

#

im thinking of grabbing it

honest lynx Feb 26, 2020, 6:11 AM

#

@fossil owl it's a classic my bro

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:13 AM

#

Doom 3 is really cool, it's pacing is top notch, the story is intriguing, it's also kinda "spooky"
*It really ain't, but that's coming from someone who has watched horror movies their entire life

honest lynx Feb 26, 2020, 6:14 AM

#

Plus it puts you in the boots of just an average marine facing down the first wave of a demon invasion

fossil owl Feb 26, 2020, 6:15 AM

#

isnt it a remake of doom 1 tho

#

or is it related to doomguy and stuff

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:16 AM

#

not exactly

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:16 AM

#

Kinda, it's partly inspired by the original, but doom 2016 is more of a reboot than doom 3

fossil owl Feb 26, 2020, 6:16 AM

#

or was that completely retconned with doom 2016

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:16 AM

#

doom 3 is sort of a retelling of of doom 1

#

rather than a reboot, its a reimagining

#

doom 2016 would be a reboot, since it hits a lot of the same notes but differently

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:17 AM

#

Doom 3 is supposed to be its own universe, it ain't cannon unlike 1, 2, 64, and 2016, oh, and eternal

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:18 AM

#

there was some voices that claimed Call of Doomy was going to follow Doom 3

#

but its a stretch

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:19 AM

#

It is, call of doomy looks more modern compared to the futuristic industrial style of doom 3, anyways, how would it work?
We stopped the hell invasion in 3, done, gone for good in that world

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:20 AM

#

i dunno

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:20 AM

#

Let's just thank id for dumping call of doomy for 2016

fossil owl Feb 26, 2020, 6:21 AM

#

also what the fuck is call of doomy

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:21 AM

#

call of doom was the name given to a project that preceded Doom 2016

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:22 AM

#

Doom 4, the dumped project, it's what would've been 2016

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:22 AM

#

it was essentially a reimagining of Doom 2 but with at the time modern fps mechanics

#

like call of duty

#

hence the name

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:23 AM

#

And ( shivers) no doom guy
The worst part

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:23 AM

#

actually there was a "doom" "guy"
he was a silent faceless protagonist

#

no relation to any other doomguy though

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:24 AM

#

I know, I just don't want to call him a doom guy, it feels wrong

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:24 AM

#

glory kills were always meant to be part of this game, in development they were called "sync melee" and they would involve the use of both hand-to-hand and weapons like a knife or the gun you were holding

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:25 AM

#

(how many ideas did id take from dnf? I hate to say that...)

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:26 AM

#

probably more than we think

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:26 AM

#

Executions, um...
At least id did it better, serious comeback

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:26 AM

#

if you pay close attention you'll notice that some concepts and even assets have been recycled for Doom Eternal

#

like the giant tentacles on the buildings

#

or the gargoyles

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:27 AM

#

Oh, yes

#

Will they add maggot like things?

#

*to eternal

frozen nova Feb 26, 2020, 6:28 AM

#

idk

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:29 AM

#

Maybe they will, we definitely havnt seen all the demons yet, and I don't think anything is completely sharing the same ai

#

As another demon

teal crow Feb 26, 2020, 6:46 AM

#

woah doom doesnt run at 60 fps on switch?

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:48 AM

#

2016 only runs at 30 on the switch, I don't know about doom 3 though

teal crow Feb 26, 2020, 6:49 AM

#

ofc that one doesnt but i know 1 and 2 do and im sure 3 does though i havent tried it was jw cause someone said it doesnt

fossil owl Feb 26, 2020, 6:54 AM

#

lets hope doom 3 can run on my shitter of a pc

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 6:58 AM

#

No, don't hope

Pray it will, damn you need to play doom 3

rancid bobcat Feb 26, 2020, 7:08 AM

#

Doom 3 on switch runs great

#

Constant 60 fps in portable mode

#

Unless you explode barrels

#

Sadly noticeable framedrops on TV

#

But still way better than on nvidia shield

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 7:10 AM

#

Alright, now I'm getting it for the switch
( I also want the classic red skin)

rancid bobcat Feb 26, 2020, 7:11 AM

#

Very likely related to resolution as portable mode is locked to 720p

#

Its a good version to get

#

Was also my first digital purchase for my switch too

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 7:11 AM

#

Oh sweet

honest lynx Feb 26, 2020, 7:12 AM

#

The culty evil feel of the UAC in 2016 defs originated from doom 3 as well as the atheistic

rancid bobcat Feb 26, 2020, 7:13 AM

#

The Hellknight is ripped right out doom 3

#

Which is a good thing because beige Baron is lame

honest lynx Feb 26, 2020, 7:14 AM

#

I just like how doom 3 makes you feel like an average dude coming up against demons and the legit bricks youd shit if you weren't the doom slayer

rancid bobcat Feb 26, 2020, 7:15 AM

#

Now on ps4 pro Doom 3 runs at 4k60fps which is great

#

But had a couple of times where fps dropped to 5 for some reason spooky

#

Here is a nice overview of Doom 3 on modern consoles

The NEW Doom Trilogy Console Ports: There's Good News And Bad News

Straight out of nowhere, the original Doom Trilogy has been ported to the current generation consoles. Controversy surrounds the first two games - and to be clear, they do need a lot of work - but Doom 3? It's gold.

If you like a bit of Doom, you're going to love this video: ...

its servicable but still shit

now its <100kb

rancid bobcat Feb 26, 2020, 7:33 AM

#

Sounds like someone in your household is hogging it

fossil owl Feb 26, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

games finished

#

its stuck at 4:3 tho

#

how to fix

rancid bobcat Feb 26, 2020, 9:56 AM

#

Desktop stuck at 4:3 res?

#

Should go to settings>display to fix that

fossil owl Feb 26, 2020, 10:05 AM

#

ok so i looked it up and the game doesn't support 16:9

#

but im just gonna stick with 4:3, game runs better that way

#

just takes a while to get used to the gigantic black bars on either side of the screen

rancid bobcat Feb 26, 2020, 10:14 AM

#

Alright so you got two options @fossil owl

#

Set res and aspect ratio via console commands

#

Use dhewm3 source port

#

You just put it into the base directory and launch the dhewm3.exe

#

Or stick to nostalgic 4:3

fossil owl Feb 26, 2020, 10:18 AM

#

how do i set it up so the source port launches when i boot the game up with steam

#

ok got it set up

#

now how do i actually change the aspect ratio since i dont see any options to do that

rancid bobcat Feb 26, 2020, 10:28 AM

#

It should change when you select 16:9 resolution in settings

fossil owl Feb 26, 2020, 10:32 AM

#

thats the thing

#

oh wait you mean change to a resolution that uses 16:9?

#

oh that didnt do anything

rancid bobcat Feb 26, 2020, 10:42 AM

#

Weird

#

Tilde, then write

#

r_customWidth 1920
r_customHeight 1080
r_mode -1
r_aspectRatio 1
vid_restart

#

Mind you the PDA will still be in 4:3

scenic stratus Feb 26, 2020, 3:45 PM

#

but stretch

#

it doesnt look to bad ngl. i recommend the dhewm 3 source port though, you don't have to use these commands for true widescreen resolutions

rancid bobcat Feb 26, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

Which is what I detailed above before posting these commands as a last resort

coral solstice Feb 26, 2020, 11:07 PM

#

2016 doesn't have real mod support

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 11:07 PM

#

We're going into hdooms base of operations, they must be stopped

cerulean vault Feb 26, 2020, 11:09 PM

#

so is doom 3 considered "the bad one" ?

coral solstice Feb 26, 2020, 11:10 PM

#

it's better than most say

cerulean vault Feb 26, 2020, 11:19 PM

#

them why do people consider it the "bad one" ?

coral solstice Feb 26, 2020, 11:19 PM

#

because it's different

#

it's more horror-inspired (well, Doom 1 did have an element of horror, just not as much as 3 and also 64), it was a little slower

#

there wasn't much music, it was pretty dark (altho classic Doom had some dark areas that worked really well in the software renderer), and the first portion of the game isn't that enjoyable until you get to Hell

cerulean vault Feb 26, 2020, 11:22 PM

#

so its not the "bad one" its more like "pink sheep you find in minecraft"

its different, its weird, but once you kill it, you find that it was actually kinda cool

coral solstice Feb 26, 2020, 11:22 PM

#

but I think it's a lot better than what most say about it because, frankly, those people probably don't understand that Doom should have its fair share of horror too

#

~~also, they probably think Brutal Doom is a good mod and better than stuff like Guncaster~~

cerulean vault Feb 26, 2020, 11:24 PM

#

wait brutal doom is bad?

#

i havent played it yet, but i heard it was actually good?

coral solstice Feb 26, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

it's bland, unbalanced, and badly coded

slim rose Feb 26, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

never played. Heard its popular, but like, not exactly a "good" mod

coral solstice Feb 26, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

and yet, somehow, people praise it like the next telephone

#

I, unfortunately, used to be one of those people

cerulean vault Feb 26, 2020, 11:26 PM

#

so its just a gorefest basically?

coral solstice Feb 26, 2020, 11:26 PM

#

the fact that I was like 12 at the time may or may not make it better

#

yes, it's a gorefest, but a bit of a boring one

#

and again, badly coded
if I wanted a good gore mod, I'd go with Universal Gibs

#

and also, the creator used to be a massive dick, but let's not get into that

versed estuary Feb 26, 2020, 11:29 PM

#

^ all of the above

cerulean vault Feb 26, 2020, 11:29 PM

#

what do you mean by badly coded exactly?

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

I haven't played brutal doom, but from what I've seen, it ain't nothing too special, though, I kiiiinda like the execution system, though, it doesnt seem to responsive

restive delta Feb 26, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

Yeah I feel that DOOM 3 gets more flak than it deserves, even though I prefer the originals and 2016 more

dark knot Feb 26, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

I hate being toxic about doom 3, but seriously, I feel like doom 3 gets less credit than it deserves, the tech that doom 3 brought to the world was revolutionary, like bump maps and lighting stuff, anyways, the game ain't that bad, it plays well, and the atmosphere is great

coral solstice Feb 26, 2020, 11:56 PM

#

@cerulean vault it runs well in-game, but if you view the code in SLADE3 it's a fucking mess

versed estuary Feb 26, 2020, 11:56 PM

#

3 got hate because it wasn’t “doom”

But if you really dive deeper, it truly is a nice game at setting the atmosphere and suspense

#

My complaint is that the main story campaign took too long to ramp up in intensity and speed

cerulean vault Feb 26, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

good ol yandere dev coding eh?

versed estuary Feb 26, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

RoE definitely fixed that issue. Much faster. And my bb the SSG

slim rose Feb 26, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

the original doom 3 game is really slow in the beginning and thats why i always have trouble playing it

#

I just feel like map game/hell1

versed estuary Feb 27, 2020, 12:00 AM

#

Hell, 1 level of amazing ness

#

That’s were the entire budget went

slim rose Feb 27, 2020, 12:01 AM

mhm

versed estuary Feb 27, 2020, 12:02 AM

#

Doom 3 is still one of my favorite games

honest lynx Feb 27, 2020, 12:28 AM

#

I have to plan every move in every room I go into on nightmare. Which is something new and cool... really give you the feeling of how weak you are against a demon horde

restive delta Feb 27, 2020, 12:30 AM

#

Yeah you need to know the game pretty well to deal with nightmare. Not that I've done it myself, but it seems like it anyway

honest lynx Feb 27, 2020, 12:55 AM

#

Give it a go... it's amazing

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 1:31 AM

#

Redownloaded doom 3 on my pc- original

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 2:19 AM

#

@fierce skiff how am i supposed to open the doom 3 alpha demo? its a .rar

nimble wren Feb 27, 2020, 2:19 AM

#

7-Zip can open rar I think

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 2:20 AM

#

ah, just did that

#

thanks

#

for some reason i cant click on anything in doom 3 alpha and no sound

#

and the mouse just goes all the way to the bottom right

#

not only that radiant mfc stopped working :/

#

is there a way to load the demo in console at least like with e3 map/intro?

#

Um nvm, it’s fixed. But now the sensitivity is super high. I keep looking at the floor and spinning like crazy. How do I fix that??

#

:/

#

Options arent even available, just singleplayer

nimble wren Feb 27, 2020, 2:57 AM

#

there's the sensitivity console command

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 2:58 AM

#

What’s the full command? I want sensitivity to be normal

nimble wren Feb 27, 2020, 2:58 AM

#

put some number after it
I dunno how it's measured, just try different values

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 2:59 AM

#

I just type “sensitivity #”?

nimble wren Feb 27, 2020, 2:59 AM

#

yes

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 2:59 AM

#

Aight I’ll see if that works

nimble wren Feb 27, 2020, 3:01 AM

#

it's what's called a console variable, or convar for short
they're commands that take a value and affect something in the game
most settings are convars, so that's why I thought there might be one for sensitivity
I just had to look up what the command is

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

Ok. Guess only other question is how do I load up E3_1.map

#

Cuz “map e3/1” doesn’t work

rancid bobcat Feb 27, 2020, 8:10 AM

#

You need to put a directory path

#

From the root where the exe/bat was launched

#

To start the maps type in command line:
map e3/e3_1
map e3/e3_2
map e3/e3_3
map fred/e3bathroom5 (an additional developer test map, nothing special but this is an curious thing)

#

@viral pebble

#

Keep in mind, Doom 3 Alpha is like a perfect timeless encapsulation of every vertical slice shown in e3

#

Its supposed to carry and sell the idea of the game they are making

#

But the maps are designed to be rehearsed and eventually show off the mockup of the gameplay as railroaded on the script

#

And everything breaks if you try to deviate

#

Still cool stuff inside, like a better shotgun

#

And some level design pieces made into retail

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

a directory path?

#

actually wait @rancid bobcat how do i change sensitivity?? its all the way maxed out

#

i keep looking at the floor and sensitivity is cranked up to max

rancid bobcat Feb 27, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

sensitivity 10 ??

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 8:28 AM

#

it took it as an ordinary message, its still at max

#

you want me to send you the demo and have you figure it out too?

rancid bobcat Feb 27, 2020, 8:28 AM

#

sensitivity 3

#

And no, I am at work

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

oh, ok

fierce skiff Feb 27, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

Hey noodle, search up doom 3 alpha download on youtube

#

And search for a video talkin bout unedited test footage

#

And download his google drive link

#

When in game open the console and type in

#

exec runact.cfg

#

You’ll see a spinning id logo, click to start the intro

#

Once you get in the game and are in control, press the home key on your keyboard

#

It should fix some stuff and give you some weapons

#

That version will have a lot of fixed bugs

viral pebble Feb 27, 2020, 6:00 PM

#

finally beaten the doom 3 alpha demo
i completely broked it cus it was only to be used as a showcase at e3 2002 XD

#

i didnt see your message at all, angery, i ended up beating the demo as it is lol

scenic stratus Feb 27, 2020, 6:28 PM

You can play the alpha demo? where would I acquire it and how long is it?

rancid bobcat Feb 27, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

google

#

its about 15 minutes long

#

almost exact same runtime as E3 2002 showcase

#

The alpha demo? Hold on @scenic stratus

frozen nova Feb 27, 2020, 8:06 PM

what was the spread of the shotgun in alpha?

#

in the final game its 22
7 for the zombies

I'm excited to see the differences :3

The ATi Radeon 9800 Pro, that was used to showcase the Doom 3 Alpha could hit around 55-60FPS
I think it was one of the best GPU at this time

Ah is there anyway to think of doom 3 and properly enjoy it ? Because often times I have trouble thinking of it as a doom game

nimble wren Feb 28, 2020, 3:55 AM

#

that's because it deviates from previous games

frozen nova Feb 28, 2020, 3:56 AM

You can complain about Doom 3 until your tits fall off
Or you can just sit down, play it, finish it, be done with it, form your opinion, and then move on

primal haven Feb 28, 2020, 3:57 AM

Okie I guess I’ll just think of it as a doom game trying to be more horror then

I have beaten doom 3 twice and am playing it again on switch

versed estuary Feb 28, 2020, 5:00 AM

#

No because it means you are not a sheep who just follows the “OmG DoOm 3 BaD cUz EvErYoNe ElSe SaYs iT bAd”

#

If someone plays the game, and genuinely doesn’t like It. Good. At least they played and understand why they don’t like it.

This whole “the majority says it’s bad so it must be mentality” of gaming recently is stupid

slim rose Feb 28, 2020, 5:02 AM

#

most things these days seem determined by the loudest section of a group. Its hard to judge a community sometimes

versed estuary Feb 28, 2020, 5:03 AM

#

Massive examples include
Doom 3
Fallout 76
Battlefront 2
Wolf Youngblood

#

Mind U.
Doom 3 didn’t exactly change much from launch besides the BFG edition.
76 through a year of updates is finally (still buggy af) but getting to what it shoulda been at launch

Batttlefront 2 also took like 2 years to be what it should have been
And Youngblood most hate comes from not being wolf 3
And genuinely terrible story.

#

Heck Doom 3 rn is $3 on the Nintendo eshop.

#

And I think it’s that or cheaper on steam rn

nimble wren Feb 28, 2020, 5:06 AM

#

yeah Fallout 76 is really no different than any other Bethesda title in respect to bugginess early on

versed estuary Feb 28, 2020, 5:06 AM

#

$3 for about 20 hours of content. Not counting more than 1 playthrough

Ye for wolfenstien i was just kinda eh with it. I'm a fan of the games but when theres no being BJ, its liek, weh

versed estuary Feb 28, 2020, 5:07 AM

#

True but 76 launched more broken compared to its other games. It was mostly the lack of content and stuff that was it’s issue.

NPC interaction was the biggest part of fallout and they straight up removed them like what

slim rose Feb 28, 2020, 5:07 AM

#

theres a joke about 76. Being its pretty much impossible to do a bug free speed run

I CANT WAIT
For eternal combat shotgun. God this 2016 one is almost as inaccurate as doom 3s shotgun

nimble wren Feb 28, 2020, 5:09 AM

#

I think they expected players to make up the difference in interactivity
but it didn't really pan out that way

slim rose Feb 28, 2020, 5:09 AM

#

naw the doom 3 shotgun is BAD

nimble wren Feb 28, 2020, 5:10 AM

since the entire reason they didn't add human NPCs was because they wanted players to be the only human characters

Terrible idea tbh. Half the reason Outer worlds has been praised so much is the NPCs.
Gotta say when it comes to fallout type games Fallout went in the worst possible direction
And outer worlds did everything but better, not to mention on switch

slim rose Feb 28, 2020, 5:11 AM

#

found the uh, source, code, totally, for spray

nimble wren Feb 28, 2020, 5:11 AM

#

2016's shotgun is actually has a decent amount of range for a video game shotgun
3's shotgun does barely anything at the same distance

slim rose Feb 28, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

youd be lucky if one pellet hit at a distance

versed estuary Feb 28, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

No yeah I know doom 3 shotgun is stupid

But 2016 feels no different at times. Sometimes it takes me 4-6 shots to kill some things. Just like the doom 3 one

nimble wren Feb 28, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

those spread cones are mostly accurate, in fact

frozen nova Feb 28, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

thats just because the enemies have bloated health

#

some of the upgrades overcompensate

versed estuary Feb 28, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

I’m talking possessed soldiers

nimble wren Feb 28, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

yes, imps typically take like 2 shotgun shots

frozen nova Feb 28, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

you mean those chunky chunk fucks right?

#

yeah they have slightly bloated health

versed estuary Feb 28, 2020, 5:13 AM

#

Or the barrel at the start of the game UN right, I grab shield shoot barrel.
Sometimes I hit barrel first shot*
This time I somehow missed the barrel after 5 shots

nimble wren Feb 28, 2020, 5:13 AM

#

soldiers just have more health relative to their equivalents in other Doom games

slim rose Feb 28, 2020, 5:14 AM

they look even beefier in eternal tbh

versed estuary Feb 28, 2020, 5:14 AM

versed estuary Feb 28, 2020, 5:16 AM

Unpopular opinion.
Doom 3 is stupidly underrated. Especially cost to content ratio

Now, not only is it on every platform.
$10
For ~20 hours of gameplay

You don’t find those kinds of numbers anywhere anymore

#

I just played my first hour of Doom 3 today

#

and I gotta say I really enjoyed it

#

obviously it's not the kind of game I associate the Doom franchise with, would have been better as a spinoff rather than a mainline Doom title

#

but I do enjoy it

#

dodging imp fireballs are annoying tho

#

and the shotgun fires impossibly slow

reef jackal Feb 28, 2020, 9:40 AM

#

Yeah because imp balls are explosive projectiles so even if you Dodge them on instinct like Doom 1 and 2, they can explode against the environment and hurt you

fervent crest Feb 28, 2020, 9:41 AM

#

yeah I got that

#

also it sucks to be on 2 health and can't find a med kit

reef jackal Feb 28, 2020, 9:41 AM

#

And shotgun is kind of inaccurate, spread is strong, and it may have RNG damage

fervent crest Feb 28, 2020, 9:41 AM

#

RNG damage actually makes a lotta sense now

#

there was a part where a possessed soldier ambushes me and I saved just before it and sometimes I'd 1 shot him and other times he'd be fine

#

then kill me cause I was on 2 health

reef jackal Feb 28, 2020, 9:43 AM

#

Good tip btw for imps, shotgun to the chest is more effective than the head

#

Don't know why but trust me, it's better

fervent crest Feb 28, 2020, 9:43 AM

#

yeah I noticed that

#

I 2 hit with chest hits but it takes at least 3 for the head

#

sometimes 4

reef jackal Feb 28, 2020, 9:44 AM

#

It's RNG damage because I can one shot revenants to the head with shotgun

rancid bobcat Feb 28, 2020, 11:14 AM

#

I also constantly crouch under the fireballs

#

Except RoE imps, they’re assholes who volley them pretty low

#

Also yeah prepare to crouch for the other guy coming up, as its the only way to dodge his attacks

honest lynx Feb 28, 2020, 11:30 AM

#

Nightmare is not going to be fun with those xenomorph turds

merry sphinx Feb 28, 2020, 12:49 PM

#

i hate the fact that most of the time, the shotgun has the range of a wet napkin.

little raven Feb 28, 2020, 1:30 PM

#

I call the shotgun the rectum punch

#

Cause that’s where it needs to be to do damage

rancid bobcat Feb 28, 2020, 1:34 PM

It even looks like a plug

#

Okay but seriously am I the only one bothered by its “futuristic” shape..?

honest lynx Feb 28, 2020, 2:32 PM

#

Use the futuristic super shotgun

rancid bobcat Feb 28, 2020, 2:53 PM

The first time I did it, I was like oh shit, he actually died.

mystic magnet Feb 29, 2020, 2:20 AM

#

Kinda same

slim rose Feb 29, 2020, 2:22 AM

#

Ye its like "Dang its one of those NPCs i cant kill because he's important to the stor-" pump boosh

#

"Oh"

#

mystic magnet Feb 29, 2020, 2:26 AM

#

@honest lynx I am now

#

God the theme is so good

#

Im only 4 and a half hours into the campaign

frozen nova Feb 29, 2020, 5:18 AM

#

about four or five more to go

proven zodiac Feb 29, 2020, 5:23 AM

#

Nice

#

I'm almost done with the recycling sector

#

I remember killing humans and picking up their PDA's if they had one

#

but all the PDA's I obtained this way were blank

#

no audio files or emails

#

more like a prop than anything else

rancid bobcat Feb 29, 2020, 9:23 AM

#

and assigned to the same name?

#

yeah if you are a completionist and want the "collect all PDAs" trophy/achievement

#

you HAVE to kill innocent people

fervent crest Feb 29, 2020, 9:39 AM

#

I at first did it to experiment

#

since the soldier behind the glass said don't go shooting people

#

so naturally I shot the first guy I saw

#

and then he dropped his PDA and I was like "oh cool"

rancid bobcat Feb 29, 2020, 10:09 AM

#

I always did that since 2004

#

because I am a freak deviant and frankly

#

the ending implies you are THE ONLY survivor

#

yeah those guys you met later after the invasion?

#

dead, even if you didn't kill them

#

RoE did the smart move and relegated Elizabeth to the armored booth

fervent crest Feb 29, 2020, 11:55 AM

#

I mean I think doing that is to be expected in games like these at some point

#

I have yet to meet someone who's played Halo Combat Evolved longer than 5 minutes who hasn't tried killing a marine or Captain Keyes

#

it's just the ability to do what you want

#

so like screw it why not?

#

Tends to happen a lot to me in Half-Life

scenic stratus Feb 29, 2020, 12:50 PM

#

i feel like there should be another series that focuses on the survival horror gameplay doom 3 went for

heady vortex Feb 29, 2020, 4:08 PM

#

just got to phobos labs in my one-doom3-level till release playthrough. not much left

ashen crown Feb 29, 2020, 7:19 PM

#

How many levels are in Doom 3

frozen nova Feb 29, 2020, 7:28 PM

#

that includes the intros tho

#

and the last level which is just a walk down a corridor to the final boss

ashen crown Feb 29, 2020, 7:41 PM

#

Okay

#

I got this

rancid bobcat Feb 29, 2020, 8:05 PM

#

27 levels in original

#

12 levels in RoE

#

8 in Lost Mission

#

no, hidden three developer maps (one of them is literally fifty monsters in a big room to shoot BFG into) do not count

ashen crown Feb 29, 2020, 8:26 PM

#

So I'm on Alpha Labs Sector 4 so how far am I?

nimble wren Feb 29, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

about a third of the way in, as far as amount of levels go

#

Delta is about halfway, and you have Enpro, Comms, Recycling, and Monorail before then

proven zodiac Feb 29, 2020, 8:41 PM

#

I think i made it to delta last night

honest lynx Feb 29, 2020, 10:46 PM

#

Already ... what difficulty are you planning on

coral solstice Feb 29, 2020, 11:02 PM
