haha what if a demon spawned behind you when you grabbed an item.. unless? 😳

graceful whale
#

I’m debating if I should get that graham. It comes with multiple games right?

coral solstice
#

yeah, but IMO it's better to get regular Doom 3 and Classic Complete separately (if you're on Steam)

unique sky
#

Is that a spoiler?

#

It comes with 1 and 2 aswell

graceful whale
#

Yeah I’m on steam and was debating which bundles to get before the sale ends

coral solstice
#

Classic Complete comes with not just 1 and 2, but Final and Master Levels as well
not to mention that it's the full uncensored IWADs

rotund trench
#

doom 3 is less than $2 CAD on steam right now

coral solstice
#

regular Doom 3 is a bit different from BFG Edition, IMO BFG Edition kinda ruined the feel by making it too easy

rotund trench
#

so I'd grab the original doom 3

coral solstice
#

and also, regular Doom 3 has a lot of mods that BFG Edition isn't compatible with

honest lynx
#

Play on nightmare. Best way to play

graceful whale
#

What’s ultimate doom?

coral solstice
#

Doom 1 with an extra episode

graceful whale
#

Alright, I think I’ll get classic complete and doom 3. Thanks guys ☺️

versed estuary
#

Isn’t that extra episode thy flesh?

coral solstice
#

yeah

versed estuary
#

That’s in the rereleased doom 93 too

#

Does ultimate include the secret in e1m1 or no?

coral solstice
#

yeah

#

Ultimate Doom was released in 1995

#

when Doom 1 was originally released in 1993, it only had three episodes

scenic stratus
#

Hello

toxic talon
#

Anyone else have Doom 3 take FOREVER to download for switch?

analog needle
#

yeh

frozen nova
#

for some reason bfg edition is bigger download than the original

#

despite running on the same engine and having the same assets

slim rose
#

Well uh, bfg had 1 and 2 included. Thats at least one reason

frozen nova
#

how big is the separate new release doom 3?

#

the one without doom 1 and 2

slim rose
#

hmm

#

2gb

frozen nova
#

does that include RoE and lost mission?

slim rose
#

I think it has both but not sure

#

or does lost mission exist in the first one at all?

frozen nova
#

lost mission (mod) combined with RoE and the original game is over 3gb

slim rose
#

yeah mine doesnt have lost mission

#

the original one

toxic talon
#

well we were at 13% now we're at 23%

#

Major gains

slim rose
#

lol rip

#

its not even a big game xD

#

@frozen nova how big is the new game? Mine is 8gb, although it includes the VR mod so idk what goes on there

frozen nova
#

I dont have access to the bfg edition right now so I cant tell

slim rose
#

ah

#

steam claims 11gb for the minimum

#

WELP dunno how that works

frozen nova
#

it cant be because of doom 1 and 2

#

those dont take that much space

slim rose
#

The only thing I'm thinking is textures

#

They look better in BFG I think....

frozen nova
#

thats possible

#

but they arent that much of an improvement

toxic talon
#

26%

#

At this rate I might play before monday. maybe

#

i reckon i might refund doom 3. not a big fan of it. it also runs pretty bad

You should find patches and fixes if you go the original doom 3@fossil owl

#

I find it a pretty fun game,find some bug fixes and give the game another shot.

#

You have to use your mapping memories

I wish doom 3 had a map!

#

Love that art style by the way

honest lynx
#

The best is when a doors locked and it only unlocks if you walk up to it so a commando can bum rush you

proven zodiac
#

Fr lmao I hate that shit

#

I made it to delta labs last night, how much longer until I beat the game?

slim rose
#

well theres like 5 delta labs

#

@proven zodiac ****

#

oops wait

#

There was only one Hell level. Disappointing.

slim rose
#

2

#

the last one

#

But it was on Mars not other dimension where cavern is

slim rose
#

Theres literally fire and shit everywhere, and its called hellhole

honest lynx
#

Hell is creepy af... love it

#

you sure?

#

Doom 3 has like the best hell

safe karma
#

delta is more creepy than hell to me...

honest lynx
#

Man when you get into that third chamber and hear babies crying ...

safe karma
#

In 2004 I was scared when walking through Hell, until then I got used to

honest lynx
#

Nothings scary when you've got that sweet sweet plasma rifle hahah

#

I know but just visual the hellscape

scenic stratus
#

I wonder if those baby flies from this game will return in Doom Eternal?

terse marsh
#

they wont

torpid sandal
#

Currnetly playin doom 3 for the first time. It’s good, but I can see why most people didn’t like it

#

It’s a lot slower paced than the other doom games

small turret
#

I think people would’ve liked it more if it was named something else

#

And also if the shotgun wasn’t terrible

honest lynx
#

It's not terrible if you go right up to a demon and shove it up its bum

small turret
#

And if Rng is on your side

proven zodiac
#

Im in sector 1

#

Boutta play it rn

honest lynx
#

Use only a pistol. Like a real man

small turret
#

Use fist like a real man

proven zodiac
#

#

Finna beat the game using nothing but the chainsaw

small turret
#

Beat the game without killing any demons

honest lynx
#

You should.. chainsaw kills the cyberdemon if you keep using it on his legs. I swear... would Iie to you

proven zodiac
fervent crest
#

tbh I use the shotgun in this game more than any other weapon

#

it's slow firerate can be annoying at times but overall it seems to get the job done fairly quickly with the way I play

#

which is to take cover, peak and lure enemies into tight spaces

#

the assault rifle (smg? p90 thing?) I mainly use for a longer range or if those damn spiders start swarming over me

#

the plasma rifle I only use if I'm low on assault rifle ammo or if there's a revenant, since I find I can hit the missiles easier with the plasma rifle

#

but I barely notice the shotgun RNG

#

sometimes I may 1 hit an imp but most of the time it's just 2 shots and I go from there

scenic stratus
#

the lead art director of doom 3 also art directed halo 4 and 5

#

wonder what happened since art for doom 3>>>>>design of new halos

you just mess around with the ppl on the base and stuff,that would be a nice mod

It could be called boring doom

frozen nova

I have a better idea

#

play as the janitor who has to clean up after everything that happened in the game

no just cleanup

yeah no matter what its set up to screw earth

for a second I was wondering if the game had 2 endings

or rather the same ending with everyone dead but the difference being if the ships were there or not

how do I get out of the way of those soldier demons with the long tenticle arms

if I sprint backward they hit me

Duck down

Or move right

honest lynx

Just when it swings

If you duck down just when it swings itll go over your head. A good shotgun hit or plasma blast will do the rest

what the actual fuck??? i opened up the OG doom 3 and all of my saves and quicksaves are gone! completely deleted!

#

all that time i spent playing it on veteran and theyre just- fucking gone, deleted and i wasnt even the one who did that!

#

please tell me theres a way to fix this

honest lynx
#

Oof sorry to here bro. Sounds like a good opportunity to start a nightmare run

viral pebble
#

but i was a level or two away from entering hell on veteran XD

#

and no way in hell am i playing on nightmare mode, it drains my heath down to twenty five percent no matter what

honest lynx
#

Dont get hit

viral pebble
#

Ummmmm never mind, there weren’t any quicksaves because I clicked on multiplayer?? When I rebooted doom 3 and NOT go to the doom 3 server all my saves are back

scenic stratus
#

don't get hit
Yeah, that sums it up really well doomguy_grin

viral pebble
#

Well I don’t have to worry about nightmare anymore, apparently doom 3’s multiplayer servers fucks up your quicksaves

scenic stratus

That's why I play on original Xbox

They cut a lot of stuff out tho- the Xbox wouldn’t be able to handle doom 3 as it was

Mmmm my preferred platform, such a great game

viral pebble
#

I never heard of the doom franchise when I was a kid- I had halo, halo 2, advent rising and Æon Flux on the Xbox back in 2005, along with other various games.
I found out about Doom when I saw the doom trailers in 2017 and bought it at second at Charles. After that a friend gave me a copy of ultimate doom

is it just me or does the face overlapping the doom 3 marine's face belong to barney calhoun from half-life 2

#

How is Doom 3’s multiplayer?

coral solstice
#

only tried it once and that was a real long time ago

#

and I've never thought to try it again because I can't find any occupied servers

nimble wren
#

very laggy, at least on BFG

vague temple
#

Nice

viral pebble
#

I tried doom 3’s multiplayer and literally every server it shows has no one in it

Is the multiplayer as bad as Quake Iv?

What does doom guy look like in doom 3?

Ok weird I can’t send images

He looks like a guy who regrets being transferred to Mars

viral pebble
#

Aight

#

Well I have the e3 demo for doom 3; why is it the demo’s console says to stop recording? I never used any streaming software to play it

nimble wren
#

e3 demo was meant for id to showcase the game
so it's probably related to that

honest lynx
#

As well as the new engine

viral pebble
#

Oh

#

That would explain why the enemies won’t do squat unless I walk to a certain position lol

nimble wren
#

yup, it's highly scripted

viral pebble
#

Dang. Cuz I broke the entire demo when I played it like I would with doom 3 XD
Sound effects kept getting reverbed, noclip is CHAOTIC when I go outside the map and most of the keys on my keyboard just messes with the engine instead of flashlight or weapons

nimble wren
#

that's e3 demos for you
it's only meant for a very specific set of actions, so it often breaks when deviating from those actions

viral pebble
#

And since this one was from 2002 it became SUPER broken when I played it normally Lmao
Wish I recorded it

#

There’s literally no video showing the gameplay, only like one or two

#

And like just two done by normal gamers

plush tiger
#

multiplayer on id Tech 4 is not good

#

I don't think a single id Tech 4 game had good MP

#

even the MP-focused Enemy Territory Quake Wars

#

the hell even was that

nimble wren
#

so it's not just BFG edition then

#

mp is ass is the entire engine

plush tiger
#

No wait

#

there's one good id 4 MP game

#

Quake Live

nimble wren
#

that's id tech 4?

plush tiger
#

huh apparently not actually

#

I always thought it was

#

Like they just basically remade Quake 3 in idtech 4 just so it supported newer hardware and features but nope

#

so yeah it's all not good MP-wise

nimble wren
#

ass confirmed then

viral pebble
#

Quake IV uses ID tech 4

Multiplayer’s decent

What does doom guy look like in doom 3?
@hazy path find a mirror in game or google it

rancid bobcat
#

Also the first cutscene

#

And that promo render of him with hellknight

vague temple
#

Early 2000s render were cool as shit

little raven
#

The hell knight still looks cool

honest lynx
#

That's why they basically kept the hell knights design the same

plush tiger
#

That and it was probably easier to do that to differentiate them from the Barons

honest lynx
#

I'm saying the hellknights design is almost the same in the new games because it's just an amazing look for the knight. While all the other demons have changed

rancid bobcat
#

Beige barons are lame

honest lynx
#

Do not judge a demon by the color of its skin, but by the quality at which it tries to rip you a new one

rancid bobcat

.... its weak?

But it tries and that's what counts

You miss the enemy by one mm you do no damage

And then sometimes it oneshots an imp from 10 meters away

Going to try and finish up my nightmare run on lost missions.

I swear if one more commando bum rushes me from around a corner ..

scenic stratus
#

lost mission has been modded for classic doom 3 right?

#

because i dont want to play the BFG edition

#

a bit off topic but why does every console port save for the og xbox one base itself off the bfg edition?

#

Xbox version was made special for co-op campaign

#

Bfg is an amped up version of the original PC release

#

It's easier to port a PC game to other stuff than it would be to rework the Xbox version, so that's what they used

#

I mean how hard would it be to recreate the 2004 version on pc

Commando's have been an absolute pain when doing the harder runs.

doom 3 nightmare mode fists only

imagine punching a hell knight to death

and you can NOT beat the guardian like that, definitely..

#

@broken trellis what is the damage of the commando in nightmare? i played veteran recently and they do like 40+ dmg in one hit

honest lynx
#

If the punching was more consistent it would be doable. But you swing around like a moron

#

Basicallya commando will one shot you if you dont use a soul cube in time or duck right away

#

You only have 25 health most of the time. Everything one shots you

oak violet
#

so they whip ur butt in notime. damn

honest lynx
#

It's for very advanced players for sure, you need to have your speed and movement down and have knowledge of the maps and enemy attacks

#

Not to jerk myself off or anything

oak violet

i think i will give it a chance

honest lynx
#

Its feels like a whole new game and the adrenaline rush is real

didnt even knew about the health mechanic

dmg is the same though

It is the same but you have almost no health other than temporary stations and soul cube boosts

goodluck on the nightmare

hey if your screen is tearing and stuttering you can just say playing doom causes your entire computer to rip and tear

ispitoutmycola.

fossil owl
#

its doom 3 but on your browser

versed estuary
#

Is it safe?

fossil owl
#

yeah, its a port to browsers via d3wasm

#

it uses the doom 3 demo rn

versed estuary
#

Hmm

#

I’m about to see if i can run this on my ipad with touchscreen and a Bluetooth keyboard

fossil owl
#

oh its meant for pc

versed estuary
#

I was able to navigate the menu and rebind the options

fossil owl
#

oh ok

versed estuary
#

No sound?

#

Unless i was supposed to mess with menu stuff

#

Omfg it works

#

Touchscreen and Bluetooth keyboard wtfh

royal grail
#

Did anybody else shit themselves when they played doom 3 the first time

little raven
#

No

dark knot
#

No
I thought it was to cool to do that

#

No shiting on doom 3
Ever

late compass
#

I tried to play it, but my computer was like "lol nah" crash

dark knot
#

Your computer must be a doom 3 boomer then

late compass
#

Sucks

rancid bobcat
#

I shit myself when I saw the spiderbot in the main hall and quit the game

#

... the shit didn’t even hit the fan

little raven
#

I mean it’s a fine game it just isn’t scary at all

rancid bobcat
#

It was very scary

#

When I was literally twelve

#

Now its just hilarious

#

All the new enemies makes me think of my cat when he is in playful mood and wants to assault my legs

heady vortex
#

Just finished doom 3 bfg edition on my 1-level per day day till Eternal. Now off to Doom 4

rancid bobcat
honest lynx
#

I think the hell knight looks cool af still though

#

If you want to play doom 3 with a little bit of fear on another playthrough. Play on nightmare. That oh shit I'm going to die feeling will come back quick

scenic stratus
#

Yeah. Most of the monsters in doom 3 looked pretty cool.

thick dome
#

I DID IT

#

I beat doom 3 doomguy_grin

#

as annoying as the game is a lot of the time I still really enjoyed it and got excited when each enemy was introduced

#

when cyberdemon came out I was like doomguy_shock

scenic stratus
#

Yeah, but the cyberdemon is a pushover in doom 3. Really sucked.

thick dome
#

nah he was ok

#

and bloody hell, is that glory kill in eternal a reference to this? he died in a very similar way

honest lynx
#

I've said this a bunch of times. If you're playing and you find yourself that it isnt exciting enough or it's to easy.. might be time for you to up the difficulty. Nightmare and veteran are night and day different

thick dome
#

I found it pretty hard on marine but doable

#

generally I really liked it and I dont know why so many people dislike this game

#

except for some aspects of gameplay

honest lynx
#

It's not for everyone but itll always have a place in my heart. Love every minute of it

scenic stratus
#

Oh I love doom 3 as well. I just remember the bosses were pretty easy.

thick dome
#

yeah bosses were pretty easy but still fun and I was like doomguy_shock every time one was introduced

honest lynx
#

When you're on nightmare you basically only have 25 health and everything one shots you. Itll make boss encounters more intense times 10

thick dome
#

also wtf happened to sarge lol

#

he become some demon on a tank

honest lynx
#

I beat nightmare on lost missions last night and my heart was pounding the whole time.. and I've played doom 3 maybe 30 times by now lol

thick dome
#

is sarge the one that was talking to you near the beginning of the game telling you to hurry up to meet him?

honest lynx
#

Yeah

thick dome
#

damn

#

I assume he was possessed, but then some weird shit happened that transformed him and put him on a little tank thing

#

also I was wondering about that part shortly before his boss fight, when you walked in different areas it started playing little bits of music which seemed to be getting more intense but then that was it, idk why the majority of the game had no music like that though

honest lynx
#

I think he was just corrupted not possessed

#

Lost missions has a really intense heart beat music when shits about to go down.. it's crazy. Really loved it

thick dome
#

Im surprised with how many enemies/characters there are that they showed once then hardly ever again like for example pinkies I forgot even existed, the little robots with guns that are only in a few parts of the game etc

#

there is a lot of enemies in total

#

and damn that was a LOOOONG game

honest lynx
#

In the base game yeah. When you go to hell in lost missions you run into a room with 5 pinks at once which was really cool. Very rare in base though which is a shame

scenic stratus
#

Nice. I never played lost missions or the other expansion

honest lynx
#

Roe is cool. With the artifact it give you that FEAR feeling with the slow time

thick dome
#

does anyone ever play multiplayer?

scenic stratus
#

I think one of them had a gun that was basically dooms gravity gun.

honest lynx
#

Yeah roe and lost missions has that

#

You can throw back imp fireballs and all that

#

Pick up barrels and toss them at dudes

thick dome
#

soulcube is pretty cool but I cant tell if its op

scenic stratus
#

Cool. I need to try those out, but eh. Dont feel like playing doom 3 right now xD.

honest lynx
#

When you play nightmare you get the soul cube in the start right off the bat. It's a life saver. You have to know just when to pull it out

thick dome
#

oh wow nice

honest lynx
#

In roe you get the heart that slows down time

thick dome
#

it reminds me of chainsaw in doom16 except for health instead of ammo

honest lynx
#

"Use us".... amazing sound satisfacdoom

thick dome
#

now I can finally watch more doom videos- oh wait still havent completed doom16 cus I still need a good pc doomcry

honest lynx
#

You'll figure it out bro haha. Anyways good talking to you all. Off to class I go

elfin grove
#

i actualy enjoyed doom 3

#

mind you it takes me 5 seconds to go into its pk4 files and make the game play mutch like the og doom gameplay

honest lynx
#

It can if you play on nightmare

rancid bobcat
#

oooh

#

Doom 3 is pretty rad in VR

#

I forgot that you can't put files directly here

charred fox
#

That’s awesome

#

Can you dual wield guns

bold trout
#

that's sick

rancid bobcat
#

no, the other hand is a flashlight

#

or PDA

honest lynx
#

Shout out to my boy poota!! RIP

thick dome
#

gougaru is it me or are you quite fast in that gif?

#

do you run faster in nightmare or something?

honest lynx
#

No man just maxed my sensitivity need to once you play nightmare

thick dome
#

oh you definitely look like youre running fast

honest lynx
#

There is a limited sprint function if that's what you mean?

slim rose
#

@rancid bobcat ikr its pretty fun.

#

I see someones a lefty slayer

versed estuary
#

Yay back to hell

versed estuary
#

Man this boss || dragon man lol|| won’t die

scenic stratus
#

Is it just me or did they make it darker in the newer console version?

versed estuary
#

@stuck lion so I beat RoE in 2 hours 50 min on veteran and I don’t Sprint

#

I could have beaten this expansion pack 11+ times before u beat the campaign once

honest lynx
#

^ Good shit bob!

scenic stratus
#

im doing a playthrough of RoE too

#

so much better than base doom 3

versed estuary
#

It’s helllla fun, way better than story

scenic stratus
#

i love base doom 3 but damn roe is so good

versed estuary
#

Lol yeah better in like every way

#

Too bad it was only 2 hour 50 min long. It was so action packed

honest lynx
#

How did you guys like that FEAR vibe

scenic stratus
#

yes

versed estuary
#

Do u mean like the fear atmosphere or is that a reference to a game

scenic stratus
#

i just like bonking lost souls with flashlight

honest lynx
#

Fear game slow motion

versed estuary
#

Hmm never heard of it

honest lynx
#

Sent ya a link

versed estuary
#

Thx

stuck lion
#

@versed estuary I swear to god what kinda sourcery are you pulling

versed estuary
#

And I don’t sprint Soky

#

And I don’t sprint

#

And since I know u will be like where is yo proof

stuck lion
#

i m p o s s i b l e

versed estuary
#

Saved right near the end of final boss fight

stuck lion
#

I already have like, a few good hours in roe

versed estuary
#

Legit started Roe today and finished it

#

See I don’t understand what people mean when they say doom 3 is slow
I play aggressive AF

stuck lion
#

My copy of doom 3 is one of those cursed game cartages people write reddit stories about

versed estuary
#

2hours 50 min. ON VETERAN too

stuck lion
#

Playing aggressively has never worked for me

versed estuary
#

So far that means I’ve barely milked 10 hours total from doom 3

#

Or roughly $1 an hour of playtime

stuck lion
#

Well I guess I got a lot of bang for my buck skull_yellow

versed estuary
#

Lmfao

#

Soky like those old people trying to see how far they get on a single quarter in Pac-Man

stuck lion
#

Y e s

#

It's my instinct

versed estuary
#

Doom 3 still hands down of my my most favorite games of all time

stuck lion
#

I kiiinda lotta bit hate it

#

Too boring for me

versed estuary
#

My new revised list of most favorite games is
Doom 3
Metro 2033( which I have to buy in the switch now)
PokĂŠmon mystery dungeon red/blue
Deus ex human rev
Doom 2016
MH3U
All Yoshi games

#

By most favorite i mean I could sit there and just appreciate every little detail about the game and it never gets old

#

Like doom 3. After firing that ssg countless times it never gets old

scenic stratus
#

which is 1?

versed estuary
#

1?

scenic stratus
#

roe's ssg is amazing

#

i mean does it go from best to worst or worst to best

versed estuary
#

hmmmm

#

If I had to be technical. Doom 2016
However I actually rate them as my favorite per type of game

scenic stratus
#

i do too tbh

versed estuary
#

MH3u is my #1 Rpg
But I love all monster hunter games

Deus is my favorite stealth/ talking game
And I hate stealth talking games

Doom 2016 favorite strategy shooter

Metro 2033 favorite story shooter

Yoshi favorite platformers

Doom 3 favorite “classic shooter”

#

I say “classic” but I just mean the fact that it’s an old game, but done so well

#

For one, it’s stupidly cheap for how much content u get, just ask Soky. He literally gets lost in the amount of content ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

charred fox
#

Good taste bob my man

scenic stratus
#

i fucking love doom 3

charred fox
#

Same

dark knot
#

I don't see how some people cant

scenic stratus
#

i once saw a reddit comment pretty much exactly like this: "Doom 3 is a boring game without ripping and tearing"

dark knot
#

That
That makes absolutely no fucking sense

scenic stratus
#

yep

#

doom 2016 is a fantastic game but thats only 1 style of doom

charred fox
#

Doom 3 has way more fundamentals than what people think tbh

dark knot
#

Indeed
I kinda hate some of the toxicity in some of the other doom communities
"Doom 3 isn't 2016"
"Doom 3 has bad pacing"
"Doom 3 has BAD GRAPHICS"

slim rose
#

The height of its time

#

Bad graphics?
have you played doom 1 or 2?

scenic stratus
#

doom 3 was revolutionary

#

"Doom 3 isn't a good doom game"

charred fox
#

Hate that saying

scenic stratus
#

sorry it doesnt hold up to todays standards

#

I hate it too lol

#

I like 3 more than 2016

#

if you count 1 2 and 2016 as "doom" then doom 3 is a bad doom game, still a fucking amazing game

slim rose
#

Hey look lets put it this way. If doom 3 wasnt ever made, d16 coulda been that game or worse

charred fox
#

Honestly IMO 3 and 16 share different aspects from classic doom in that 3 exaggerated the horror more where 16 amped up action and completely threw out any atmosphere

scenic stratus
#

yep

#

hopefully doom eternal mixes the 2

charred fox
#

They’re both still doom games but with different priorities

scenic stratus
#

i doubt it though

charred fox
#

Dude yeah

slim rose
#

the original doom 4 concept was already really bad. But they fixed it

scenic stratus
#

yep

charred fox
#

Hell feeling evil was something I didn’t get from 16

scenic stratus
#

call of doom-ty

charred fox
#

Just kinda felt barbaric

scenic stratus
#

yeah

dark knot
#

I still consider doom 3 a doom game
But I can admit it's a black sheep in the series

scenic stratus
#

doom 3 reeks of satanism, perfect for the good old machine gun

charred fox
#

Yee

scenic stratus
#

i will admit, doom 3 has a fucking awful shotgun

charred fox
#

Yeah lol

#

That’s like fucking up jumping in a mario game

dark knot
#

It really fucking sucks

scenic stratus
#

unless you are practically up the enemy's ass it does nothing

slim rose
#

Its an awesome shotgun! Just requires some....face to face contact with demons

charred fox
#

You have to kiss the demon

slim rose
#

^

scenic stratus
#

im fine with the shotgun, im fairly good with it. but it just sucks as a shotgun

charred fox
#

Or else the spread will perfectly outline your target

scenic stratus
#

yea

dark knot
#

In order to do shit ya got to stick it up and imps nose!
Now I have the habit of too much close quarter combat

scenic stratus
#

im glad doom 3 has gotten a bit more attention recently due to the new ports

#

too bad theyre based off the damn BFG EDITION AAHHHH

charred fox
#

I hear it hit number 1 in the Nintendo eshop lol

#

AAA

scenic stratus
#

i actually prefer the bfg edition on console

#

on pc?

#

well hell no

charred fox
#

Hell nah

slim rose
#

BFG is better for console. PC, get all da mods on the old one

scenic stratus
#

yep

charred fox
#

Yes

slim rose
#

Unless its VR mod i guess

scenic stratus
#

i suck with a stick so its fine to have the easier flashlight and vaults full of ammo

charred fox
#

Yeah it’s surprisingly comfy on PS4

scenic stratus
#

yep

charred fox
#

Except they forgot to enable sprint toggle in hell lool

scenic stratus
#

lying in bed with my switch playing doom 3 is fun as hell

charred fox
#

Oh fuck that sounds great

#

Honestly another thing I really like about d3 is the movement weirdly enough

#

It feels so damn responsive iunno

#

Bhopping lets you accelerate really fast in a split second

scenic stratus
#

yeah

#

my favorite thing in this game is the sound that plays when you bonk something with the flashlight

charred fox
#

Yes

scenic stratus
#

pink

charred fox
#

And when you smack a body twice it be like 🧠

scenic stratus
#

yeeeas

charred fox
#

SPLAT

scenic stratus
#

i love gibbing the corpses with a single beat

charred fox
#

Honestly doom 3 had glory killing before 16

scenic stratus
#

i hate the bfg edition for removing that ability

charred fox
#

You just had to make a corpse

scenic stratus
#

i just want to bonk

charred fox
#

Oh fuck that explains why it didn’t work

scenic stratus
#

i want flashlight in doom eternal

#

instant glory kill

#

to weaker enemies of course

charred fox
#

Yeah dude

#

We need a crucible skin

#

But it’s the flashlight

#

Hell he even turns on the cruicible like a flashlight anyways

scenic stratus
#

yeah

pearl eagle
#

completed Lost mission on nightmare today

scenic stratus
#

good job

charred fox
#

Oh shitttt

#

Congrats marine

#

It’s aight I never saw it

scenic stratus
#

just a question, is lost mission a mod for classic d3 or do i have to play cursed edition?

#

like i heard someone made it

#

im not sure though

charred fox
#

Hmmmm

#

I’d love to play lost mission on classic

pearl eagle
#

its DLC

#

at least i think it is, i mean it comes already installed with the BFG edition

#

but if it started as a mod that would explain why the final boss is like the 2nd boss you fight in normal doom 3

scenic stratus
#

its exclusive to the bfg and console editions. just remember someone saying it was remade for classic doom 3

scenic stratus
#

Yes there's a mod that puts lost mission in classic

#

There's literally no reason to buy the newer versions except for the vr

honest lynx
#

Hell looks bloody wicked in lost missions though I just need to mention that. Love going on that boat

charred fox
#

BOAT

#

There is a BOAT???

honest lynx
#

Yeah it sails you across an ocean of lava

#

For about 4seconds

rancid bobcat
#

that's river Styx

little raven
#

I like boats

honest lynx
#

Then you'll love a lava boat. Only 6666.66

#

Yeah the guy who's supposed to collect your coin to cross the river styx is on vacation though. Sorry

charred fox
#

Holy shit boat in doom 3

slim rose
#

i forgot about the boat

scenic stratus
#

B O AT?

#

🚣

lethal escarp
#

coin? guys, don't you know? Don't pay the ferryman ...!!!

scenic stratus
#

doomguy_god boat

#

i read the lost mission mod has better opening and ending cutscenes

honest lynx
#

That scene was pretty dope. And then a room full of pinkies after which is nice since pinkies are all together rare in the first place

#

And a arch

#

Cool looking room in general actually

scenic stratus
#

why is it called lost mission? does it have beta levels?

honest lynx
#

Its about a separate marine that's got his own quest to shut down a teleporter in hell going on the same time as the base game

scenic stratus
#

ik what its about, the name just implies its more than that

honest lynx
#

Probably just because it sounds cool

scenic stratus
#

it does

#

i like the name, and with the story it does make sense

honest lynx
#

I think adding a few missions though from different perspectives would have been cool . You just made me think of that

charred fox
#

The first level does remind me of the beta level

#

Aw shit phone boutta die

scenic stratus
#

i gotta play the alpha

honest lynx
#

Plug that shit In

scenic stratus
#

^

little gulch
#

lost mission was about bravo team before they got destroyed by wraiths i think

honest lynx
#

After and you're the last remaining marine

scenic stratus
#

its funny

#

imps and wraiths mess them up

#

easiest enemies in the game

honest lynx
#

But then you wake up and merc rooms of them by yourself

scenic stratus
#

yep

little raven
#

What about roe

scenic stratus
#

wym

coral solstice
#

the expansion pack

#

Resurrection of Evil

honest lynx
#

You get the artifact which is a heart that eats souls and let's you slow down time like fear so you can take the super shotgun and put it up demons asses

coral solstice
#

or you can just punch them to death provided you've already killed the Berserk Hunter

honest lynx
#

Punching in doom 3 just isnt as satisfying to me though.

little raven
#

The punch sounds like a salmi being hit against a wall

honest lynx
#

That's because it probably was spooky

nimble wren
#

not to mention the fingers are bent all wrong

safe karma
#

I should play lost mission one day!!!

#

I never played that one before...

haughty bone
#

The boss fights towards the end were confusing at first go thru, the guardian especially

honest lynx
#

Just a soul cube and a few bfg shots nothing to worry about

scenic stratus
#

ik what roe means, i just wanted to know what it had to do with the current conversation

honest lynx
#

You tell em cheese

scenic stratus
#

Resurrection of evil

honest lynx
#

Rabbits on ecstasy

scenic stratus
#

Oh my bad thought you said idk what it means

coral solstice
#

honestly, I thought the Maledict was better than all of 2016's bosses

honest lynx
#

You're one ugly mothafu...

#

When I first saw that thing

scenic stratus
#

Loved that boss

honest lynx
#

Dudes head is in a head bro

#

Felt like a classic good boss fight . Loved it

#

I honestly thought the mal ate me at the end for a second .. I was like .. what just happened.. imagine if that was the ending hahah

dark knot
#

The bosses in doom 3 felt like casual enemies, like the original doom

lethal escarp
#

uhu, yeah .... the spider demon and Icon of sin where so casual .. like any of the other Demons you killed ....

dark knot
#

Minus the icon of sin
The spider demon though
Appeared a little less often than the cyberdemon

#

In doom 2 that is

lethal escarp
#

In 2 yes, in 1 it was the end Boss ...

dark knot
#

True

#

I was thinking about doom 2 more than the original doom
Mostly because of doom 2's enemy variety

lethal escarp
#

but i think i get what you mean .. Doom 3 was ... eh .. different. Playing just a random marine ... it was like a different universe ..

dark knot
#

Yeah...
Because it is

#

I'm thinking from a gameplay standpoint

honest lynx
#

Playing as a scared marine barley surviving and just being an average soldier facing the demon hordes is a unique feeling .. then jump to doom 2016 and you're the doom slayer .. night and day

lethal escarp
#

the addon, ressurection of evil, was alot better for me .. still not like the original ... but better than 3 basegame

honest lynx
#

Slow time was alot of fun

dark knot
#

I'm beginning to see the contrast between doom 2016 and doom 3
To be honest I could care less of the difference, I like to play both

coral solstice
#

I actually prefer the whole "just a man, and no more" thing Doom 3 did over 2016's Doomslayer shtick
classic Doom tried to go for the former, but it's not as obvious due to the game mechanics

honest lynx
#

That's what I take it for and if you think of it in that way you'll love it

#

Although I enjoy being a merciless demon slayer as well

coral solstice
#

it's a bit more obvious if you read the manuals

#

I just feel like 2016 warped everyone's perception of Doom

#

so now almost everyone thinks classic Doom was like that, when it was not supposed to be

dark knot
#

I agree, I find every doom has it's own theme

coral solstice
#

and because of that mentality, Doom 3 still gets hate for being "different"

#

and that's part of why I like 3 more

lethal escarp
#

original doom didn't realy give any background .. you where a marine, and you where a badass. Not the doomslayer, but definatly more than a regular recruit. A bit like Sarge in Quake maybe ....

coral solstice
#

because of the people that think Doom was always about being the ultimate badass

dark knot
#

I like 3 because it plays well, the pacing is top notch
So is the level design
And environments

lethal escarp
#

in a way classic DooM was about becoming the ultimate badass ....

coral solstice
#

well, to be more specific, everyone thinks classic Doom was about being the ultimate badass 24/7 like 2016

honest lynx
#

If you think about it , in doom eternal , back on earth. Those soldiers are probably up against the demon invasion alot more like you in doom 3... way over your head and scared shitless

coral solstice
#

I certainly hope Eternal's DLC campaigns go that route

lethal escarp
#

i realy hope they actually do campaign DLCs ... those where promised for 2016, too before release ...

rotund trench
#

no they never promised campaign dlcs for doom 2016.

#

and campaign dlcs are already confirmed for Eternal.

honest lynx
#

I'm sure they will the collectors edition I got says it comes with both so that would be false advertising

lethal escarp
#

The collectors edition on the behtesda store doesn't mention any DLCs ...

#

And yes, in interviews pre-launch of doom 2016 the devs talked about dlcs

#

planned for 2016

honest lynx
#

Theres an image for the collectors edition that shows the 2 dlc pass

lethal escarp
#

damn ..... and it explicitly says "campaign dlc 1+2" .... dancingdoomguy

rotund trench
#

nope they never mentioned dlc for doom 2016 singleplayer, only multiplayer.

lethal escarp
#

I ordered it without knowing that 😄

scenic stratus
#

im going to preorder the standard edition soon, im too broke for the super epic slayer helmet that i would kill someone for

honest lynx
#

That things not coming off my head for a very long time

scenic stratus
#

then i shall behead you

honest lynx
#

Hahhahaha made me picture that

scenic stratus
#

i would spend like 200 dollars or whatever if i had the ability to

lethal escarp
#

i just hope its big enough ... i'Ve seen helmets from other games that .. well where flimsy and small .. i also have a rather large head (mostly air in it 😄 ) so.... yeah i hope it fits.

scenic stratus
#

same my head is big

honest lynx
#

Let me tell you I havent preordered in many years... but when I saw that.... I busted out that money so fast

lethal escarp
#

i ordered the day they announced it ....

haughty bone
#

I want that helmet

thick dome
#

is collectors edition gonna stay up for sale? or is it a limited time thing

#

cus I would love one of those helmets doomguy_grin

limpid carbon
#

would doom 3 totally kill my eternal boner if i tried to squeeze it in before launch. I never finished it when it came out

lethal escarp
#

@thick dome i think it is limited. On the EU store, the CE is sold out, but i dont know if they will restock.

scenic stratus
#

@limpid carbon nah, it's still doom, just a different take on it. "The way id always wanted it but were limited by technology"

limpid carbon
#

I don't think doom 3 was the way they "always" wanted it it was an entirely different game

scenic stratus
#

That's literally from an interview with id at the time

limpid carbon
#

I think that is something you say when you have a new toy.

The first two games were blisteringly difficult on harder settings and faster than almost any game after.

They might have wanted to accomplish what they did with 3 all along, but what you are saying means that 1/2 were many to be slower paced, corridor horror games. And I don't believe that to be the case

scenic stratus
#

It's still a run'n'gun fps shooter, but with the new tech (at the time) they were able to make dark rooms really dynamic, and add in much more realistic graphics and such. Less power-ups and more story was what they wanted.

#

It might not have been the best by comparison, but that's cause '16 blew 3 out the water and shot it with a rocket.

Hindsight

limpid carbon
#

So you think that most of 1/2 was meant to be a dark timid silent hill type affair, because thats how it felt.

#

like i said, when new technology comes out, people retroactively view their old projects and confused "if would have been nice to have this then" with "this is what we wanted all along"

No no, but og Doom is full of jumpscares. It's more scary though because it's a legit hoard of monsters, where Silent Hill is more personal encounters. Rarely do you find a room full of manaquins after a switch is pressed, ya know?

thick dome
#

tbh I wish berserk was more than like twice in the whole game, its really fun

limpid carbon
#

true true. Again, i dont think doom 1/2 were ever meant to be like doom 3

#

if anything, 2016 is what they always wanted, and it is nothing like doom 3

#

which further points to the "what we always wanted" thing being a bit of a farce

scenic stratus
#

That's what I was gonna say. Times and tastes change

limpid carbon
#

my argument is that in 92 they never imagined doom 3

#

if anything, they imagined 2016, but went in a new direction with 3

#

it seems like they tried to retroactively tell the story with doom 3. lots of preamble and setup. where really, (as they found in 2016) we just want to rip tear

scenic stratus
#

Maybe

If anything '16 just happened to be the game the newer team wanted. Gotta remember there's a lot more staff at id now, not just the humble small team that started it. The story and gameplay has very much evolved over all that time

#

Maybe Eternal was the game the always wanted to make, who knows. We're just arguing semantics of an interview of someone who probably changed their mind years later.

limpid carbon
#

lol this is very true.

#

it is still crazy to this day what they accomplished so many years ago

scenic stratus
#

Absolutely, each big game was able to bring something cool to the table

plush tiger
#

If Id had the tech or design foresight, Doom 1 would absolutely play more like Doom 3

#

In the same vein that Wolfenstein 3D was supposed to be a stealth action game with uniform changing and corpse dragging

#

Those id boys were really thinking ahead of the curve

#

Doom was supposed to be a licensed Aliens game at one point

#

And Doom 3 is a lot closer to that in the final release of Doom

#

Hell, even the prospect of them wanting to do a game like 2016 but never could is really far off since Doom itself kept changing style and gameplay mechanics right up until the game's release

#

mainly because Doom had such a short development time they basically kinda had to go crazy with some corner cutting

#

It's kind of a miracle how fleshed out Doom ended up being for a game made in such a short amount of time with a small amount of people and with so many aspects being changed over said time

I’ve just spent 2 hours playing Doom 3 on Nightmare and I immediately regret everything

red swan
limpid carbon
#

@brisk hedge why

honest lynx
#

Playing on nightmare is one of the most intense playthroughs I've ever done on doom 3 .Whole other game and loved every second of it.

brisk hedge
#

It’s so damn hard

coral solstice
#

It’s not even remotely fair, just like classic Doom’s Nightmare mode

honest lynx
#

Dont get hit. Learn the rooms. Keep moving. Know when to use the soul cube or artifact. And you absolutely need to know when the commandos are going to rush you. I have to tell you, anyone who says doom 3 is to slow and not adrenaline rush enough hasn't played on nightmare.

charred fox
#

@limpid carbon Very very late reply but doom 1 was indeed going to be a bit more narrative focused like 3

#

The whole “rip tear fast” thing is more of a stereotype brutal doom and the comic started imo

#

And even then doom 1 still kept horror elements

#

I wouldn’t have doom 1 any different than how it is today, but 3 is very much a doom game still. It’s not a silent hill type game at all

honest lynx
#

^ preach brad ... 100 percent agree

charred fox
#

Thanks bro

granite peak
#

Doom but the demons are silent hill style monsters

scenic stratus
#

And just saying, nobody back then had anything to do with doom 2016

#

So that that's what they were going for is kinda silly reasoning

#

I must ask, which is better to start off with: dhewm 3 or Doom 3 perfected?

coral solstice
#

Dhewm3

#

because Perfected Doom 3 is basically the Brutal Doom of Doom 3

scenic stratus
#

oh

coral solstice
#

in the way that it's poorly coded and unbalanced garbage

scenic stratus
#

completely different experience

#

brutal doom isn't poorly coded and unbalanced... is it?

coral solstice
#

I remember PD3 corrupting its own quicksaves

scenic stratus
#

oh yeah that happened to me a few times

coral solstice
#

yes, Brutal Doom isn't that well coded, it's something YandereDev would be proud of

#

and it's either too easy or too hard, no inbetween

scenic stratus
#

I heard project brutality (at least the stable 2.8 version) is better coded

coral solstice
#

3.0 is even better

#

it no longer uses BD as a codebase and is reworked from the ground up in ZScript

scenic stratus
#

I tried 3.0 but for some reason it gives me some sort of error message about rendering and I can't screenshot it so I can't show it to the PB 3.0 discord server to help me fix it

#

So whats the difference between vanilla doom 3 and Dhewm 3 version?

#

Is it like GZdoom and eduke32 that adds more rendering options and gameplay features?

#

Brutal doom's code is a mess lol. There is or was some racist stuff in the code as well

#

yeah the voice actor for the guy who did the comic one liners in v21 beta had some racist lines or something like that

coral solstice
#

@scenic stratus Dhewm3 has better widescreen support

scenic stratus
#

anything else?

coral solstice
#

that's it

scenic stratus
#

literally no other features

coral solstice
#

and I think it's actually incompatible with most mods for 3

scenic stratus
#

it is I remember that

coral solstice
#

I think Doomguy's VA in BD didn't really do anything that bad
in fact, I remember reading about him threatening to split from the project if the racist comment in v17's code wasn't removed in the next release

scenic stratus
#

oh yeah. then he went to go work on project brutality instead

coral solstice
#

yeah

scenic stratus
#

I think PB is a better brutal doom anyways

#

more weapons, balanced difficulty

coral solstice
#

for one thing, the creators of PB aren't total dickwads

scenic stratus
#

more glory kills

#

more references to the lore

coral solstice
#

BD's creator even once attempted to put images of real gore into the mod, that's how shitty he is

scenic stratus
#

brutal doom isn't as cool as it used to be

#

but it is compatible with a lot of mods

#

which is why people still use it

#

It wasn't the voice actor. It was racist code regarding the plasma gun

#

I mean, compared to 3.0 PB, brutal doom is just child's play

coral solstice
#

IIRC BD was originally a test for another thing Mark was doing, a MegaWAD/mod called Armagedoom

scenic stratus
#

speaking of which, has a stable version of PB 3.0 been released yet or is it still in beta?

coral solstice
#

don't think so

scenic stratus
#

nope, just checked the discord server

granite peak
#

Racist simps are so predictable

#

Like when they got mad at wolfenstein

honest lynx
#

Why did they get mad at wolf ??

boreal adder
#

Probably because it puts their beloved nazis in such a bad light
'cuz the nazis totally didn't do evil things themselves 😋

austere hamlet
#

they tweeted about killing nazis once

#

and the assholes crawled out the woodwork all pissy

scenic stratus
#

I used to know a guy who had ss bolts tattooed on his chest and somehow wolfenstein was his favorite game lmao

granite peak
#

Maybe he was being ironic about it

scenic stratus
#

He wasn't...

granite peak
#

Welp i'm as confused as you are then

boreal adder
#

If he was, I'd say he didn't know what irony meant...

austere hamlet
#

nazis are just that stupid sometimes

scenic stratus
#

Yep

austere hamlet
#

you hear about nazis that like punk getting mad that these bands are getting political sometimes, and the bands are like "we hate you anyways? fuck off maybe"

boreal adder
#

Sometimes I get the idea the nazis are more like: "I hate everyone else, and I want everyone else to tell me that's okay."

austere hamlet
#

some people just lack critical thinking and its sad

boreal adder
#

Even beyond everything else they do, that's a remarkable lack of self-respect

austere hamlet
#

I think that a decent chunk of them are like that

boreal adder
#

Probably

granite peak
#

"Everyone that isn't like my idealized version of me should die" is basically the gist of it

austere hamlet
#

some are probably just real entitled too

scenic stratus
#

Getting pretty off topic here but in my experience they're just totally ignorant to the point they believe all the propaganda those white supremacy sites put out

coral solstice
#

I feel like we should stop, this feels a bit too political for this server

scenic stratus
#

Yep

boreal adder
#

Otherwise, they wouldn't care about a game made for those people they think should die

#

Oh, agreed. Stopping

granite peak
#

Anyway project brutality seems like something i wanna check out

honest lynx
#

What's stopping you bro

granite peak
#

I'm not at home

honest lynx
#

That'll do it

vestal epoch
#

I always found this game to be the hardest.

scenic stratus
#

I didnt

#

this game is rather chill compared to say Doom II on UV

#

or worse

#

PLUTONIA

low tangle
#

i try to play doom 3

#

but my game hates me

#

Only bad thing about doom 3 is the crappy RNG shotgun

#

That thing never worked like its supposed to

#

Where's my point blank range one shit kill goddangit

carmine sonnet
#

Agreed, not a fan how you cycle through weapons either. Feels clunky, least’ to me

#

Then again I only play Doom 3 on console, so that may be why

rancid bobcat
#

also armor which is nigh useless

#

it never fell down below 100 in my playthrough

#

not because I am gud

#

its because I just took 99hp damage while armor is at 124

carmine sonnet
#

Meh, armor is sort of pointless, you could play without it and it wouldn’t affect much of your gameplay

thick dome
#

at least with shotgun if the point blank doesn't kill an imp I whip out the pistol and finish them off with one shot it's really satisfying and looks badass

plush tiger
#

I feel like the machine/chain gun are the way to go

#

Since they have like, 100% accurate shots every time

proven zodiac
#

Plasma gun >>>>>

plush tiger
#

Chain gun betterer

scenic stratus
#

plasma gun is fun but it runs out of ammo so quick

honest lynx
#

The plasma just melts every demon you see , honestly cheeses the game. I love it but I also try not to use it to much

rancid bobcat
#

ooooh you never run out of ammo for plasmagun in BFG ed romero

#

and if you think you do, BAM 500 cells right around the corner

honest lynx
#

Oh man its sounds so cool though when you reload . Got that as my ringtone right now.

carmine sonnet
#

BFG edition is a bit too easy tbh

honest lynx
#

But yeah you go Into a room and you just destroy everything in your path with that thing. Kinda ruins the experience

#

But at the same time I love it... so I'm torn lol

rancid bobcat
#

it humiliates revenant, that's how it was a love at first trigger pull doomguy_grin

honest lynx
#

Literally blow those rockets up in their faces spooky

proven zodiac
#

I almost never run out of ammo with it

#

But I never have ammo with the chaingun

honest lynx
#

Something about using that chaingun though... the sound it makes when you're throwing down bullets

fervent crest
#

I never see the shotgun as a one shot

#

sometimes I get a 1 shot and I'm like "oh cool" but I always prepare for a 2 shot

tawny hearth
#

Which doom 3 monster reveal do you think is the best, I personally love the revenant's

#

@fervent crest Same

fervent crest
#

either revenant or the baron

nimble wren
#

you mean hell knight
there aren't any barons in 3

fervent crest
tawny hearth
#

Yeah

fervent crest
#

he tries to punch me and throws green magic

#

he maybe a knight in game but in my head he's a baron

rotund trench
#

thats the doom 3 hell knight

tawny hearth
#

Yeah

nimble wren
#

barons and hell knights were very similar in the classic games
just a difference of health, really

#

maybe you're thinking baron because the Doom 3 hell knight seems more like the classic baron in terms of beefiness than the classic hell knight

versed estuary
#

Doom 3 knight best version of knight

scenic stratus
#

Both hell knights and barons punch and throw green shit though, not sure why you'd jump to the conclusion that makes it a baron

nimble wren
#

exactly

scenic stratus
#

There was a baron planned for doom 3 but it among other demons was cut

fervent crest
#

knights in 2016 can't throw green shit

#

and 2016 is the one I played first out of all dooms

#

so that's what I was comparing this too

boreal adder
#

oh deer

#

we have a heretic!

scenic stratus

2016 is a reboot, it changed a lot
