Since you get to witness the hell invasion while its happening
Unlike every other doom game where hell already invades by the time you get there
That and whenever you go onto mars's surface
I dunno i just like it
Yeah, early Doom 3 is the least Doom-like, but it’s a decent horror. Until you memorize all the jumpscares at least
I got scared by a cacodemon that spawned behind me
I was on a call with a friend and I legit screamed
I nocliped through the exit door
That’s Communications Transfer, it also has a completely uninspired Berserker fight
that level is a chore and the game would benefit with it being cut
I think I just got past that one
I just, uh, cheese it by jumping on the rails
I meant as in the rail guarding
im past communications on my nightmare run
not the electric rails
90 percent of the people that come on here for help are stuck on communication transfer. It's pretty bad
XD
Just noclip through the door it might be cheating
But the game is cheating with that level
I don’t know names, but I think I know exactly what level this is
It’s the one with major backtracking isnt it ?
They havent even bothered to fix the delta elevator glitch since 2004 so I doubt anything would get better
It’s the one with the maze and moving platform
Main
It's the one where you go up and down the elevator to different floors and at the end you have a berserk to punch dudes with
Teleporters ?
You know where you have to go to send the damn signal to the fleet god damn it
i always cancel the message because i always feel bad
Well I never got lost in 3 so I guess I ever noticed a maze
I sent the message because I didn’t trust a guy named after a waterfowl
I figured earth was screwed anyways so sent it
It's not really a maze it's just some weird backtracking thing
The drift in my right joycon has gotten worse and I cannot continue playing doom 3.
It is much too frustrating
I am pissed to no end
I don’t have eternal, and now I cant play half my games
Holy shit. The perfect fucking console with the most shit ass crap controllers on the planet
f
f
I can’t even afford a game let alone a new console
And I can’t even send these in to get the stupid free replacement because their repair centers are closed
Damn
Does anyone have doom 3 BFG edition on Xbox 360? Cuz I need people to play multiplayer with
Deathmatch
Am I the only one that ended up killing that dude trapped in the room because the top button was bigger and more visible than the bottom one?
The chamber
If you save him you get the BFG room code and ammo and armor
I save him grab the stuff kill him and then go on my way
Killing is bad but chainsawing bodies is ok?
Yes
What if I chainsaw them when they are alive
They disappear so the demons can’t hang them up as decor
Don’t you have to kill all humans to get “all pda” achievement?
Death to the lifeless
For they will die without intervention, the intervention will be a swift and merciful end
your gun kills quick, the demons do not
i kill every human i see its a merciful end compared to what hell has to offer
I kill them for the goofy rag doll physics lol
scientists: noo don’t kill me I can help you
me: haha rag doll go plop
exactly lol
rag dolls are awesome
I just kill them because I never know which ones have those interesting PDAs on them and also, like someone said earlier, those ragdoll physics are just funny to watch
Any of y’all recommend some doom 3 mods? Let me know
I got classic doom 3, doom reborn and perfected doom 3
Phobos
Mundial Ronaldinho Soccer 64
Do you want mods specifically or just mappacks and custom maps will do?
Mods that have their own campaigns:
Last Man Standing
Classic Doom 3
In Hell
Fragging Free
Make it to Morning
Tested
Endarchy
Silent Shout
Hallowed
Phobos
Phobos was 13 years in development and is in a league of its own
Mods that change the Doom 3 campaign:
Doom 3 Fixed Edition
Sikkmod
Doom 3 Redux
Perfected Doom 3
Overthinked Doom 3
RanDoom 3 (sadly only first 4 levels were made)
Give me a mod where I get to just work on mars base as a janitor cleaning up messes
Doom 3: Aftermath... you're just a random dude trying to cleanse the base from unidentifiable growth
that would be a interesting mod
Viscera Cleanup Doomtail
Looks like we have another plasma accident in delta ...
Anyway to add a duct tape mod on perfected doom 3? It doesn’t turn on.
Phobos looks kinda cool, Imma download it
Guys can you help me, I try downloading Phobos and it was working. Until I clicked start game and it took me back to the main menu. I go back and click start game and it did the same thing. Is there’s something I need to fix to play this mod?
are you using a sourceport?
most mods have issues with ports like dhewm 3
thats the only thing i can think of
I got it to work! I had to reinstall doom 3 and launch Phobos on doom 3.
Man this mod is giving me the half life vibes
I do like the realistic weapons mod for doom 3
It's an old mod, but i like some of the sounds and it adds a tourch to the pistol
Also tightens the spread of the shotgun
Tho its weaker even up close then the base game which is dumb
Any mods to just make the shotgun shoot slugs ? Haha
I remedied that by playing Perfect Doom 3 which allows me to dual wield the SSG
Any mods to just make the shotgun shoot slugs ? Haha
@honest lynx that mod was Prey 2006
doom, doom, doom
doom cubed
Why cubed
3
Doom³
You can actually find the soul cube in doom 2016
Thought that was kinda cool
It also sort of puts the timelines together in that doom guy started out in Doom 3, then Doom 1 and 2, Doom 64 and then Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal
It just makes sense
in doom 1 he was a guard for a waste management plant on phobos in 2022 after assaulting his commander, doom 3 takes place in 2145
also remember there is a multiverse now where hell is the same dimension no matter what universe
Multiplayer with multiple slayers
that would be cool i mean quake champions did that kinda
No I mean, a coop game with all doom skaters
oh yeah
Does any1 even play this game????
Nah probably not
Yeah it was all over the place. I quit playing halfway through
Can you do cheats on console or not?
No
Alright okk

I have played all doom games u know all when I was a kid I played doom 1 and 2 now I m in teens I play doom eternal
Yeah I only really started playing doom recently but when I played doom 2016 I started getting into the doom lore and stuff
I don’t know what you guys are talking about doom 3 is awesome
doom 3 is decent with a few major missteps
there are some areas where the pace was awesome and some areas where the pace was really slow and not worth it
Highly Recommend installing the Perfected Doom Mod if you play this. Also almost all of the addons EXCEPT Premium. The Premium Addon started out as being good, but then the guy added a whole bunch of sound clips that ruin it all.
did someone call dewm 3 bad? this wont fit with the hive mind
/s
oh, Doom 3 as a game is an unpolished mess. It's also the dark sheep of the series, being an atmospheric horror shooter trying to catch on to the hype that Half-Life had in anticipation of the Half-Life 2 release, one month after Doom 3 came out. It's NOT a fast-paced fun shooter, and that's what rubs everyone the wrong way.
Doom 3 as it is now though, with so much being done with the ID Tech 4 Engine and mods? fans have done the work that the devs should have done, making a good, polished game that can own up to the style it was going for, or even make it more like classic Doom.
i can already see the hate replies
It is actually quite fast paced
Obviously nowhere near doom 2016 paced. But it is a fast paced game.
If you don’t think it is you are not playing it right
i have to agree with bob, the game can get quite hectic especially on higher difficulties.
I don’t understand the Unpolished game part maybe you could enlighten me on that cheese since you’ve played it longer,
But it felt like a solid game with no issues when I played it
Now I will say in terms of speed the main campaign does take a bit before it gets much faster.
And most people won’t be willing to play the first 4-5 hours before they get to what they would consider to be “true doom”
But in total it is far from a “slow” game.
I say that, and I don’t even use sprint
It shouldn't ever take 4-5 hours to get to the "DooM" part of a DooM game
By doom I mean when it becomes chaotic.
Before that it’s still tons of enemies but not as much pressure
Funny thing, for Doom 3 is often called slow paced, but what action horror was actually more fast than Doom 3? Probably only FEAR. Dead Space, Condemned, Prey, Alien Isolation are all much slower
However I do agree it shouldn’t have taken that long to ramp up.
RoE 100% started strong and stayed strong the entire time.
But it was only 3 hours long.
The first levels were ok though, they introduced us to the world and start of the invasion looked good. But they stayed too long in horror part after that
Ok first 2 levels had to be slow, it was building the story and suspense.
But the chunk afterwards could have been a bit faster
Funny thing, for Doom 3 is often called slow paced, but what action horror was actually more fast than Doom 3? Probably only FEAR. Dead Space, Condemned, Prey, Alien Isolation are all much slower
@dire crystal Oh boy do I love Fear's enemy AI
Doom 3 is actually the greatest game ever made. It has inspired successors such as half life 2 and is considered the gold standard of the doom series
Yea
Plutonia was fun though
I hate those zombie chaingunners. there annoying
Nah they chill
chain gunner.mp3
I liked plutonia but I got stuck in the arch maze and the door got jammed 
Fuck
Ha lol
tried that map for the first time today and all I can say is
i really fucking hate archviles
i just hate how random the fire attack feels, and their pain state chance is so low, if a shot from the super shotty always put them in the pain state, it would feel fair
That would actually be pretty fun
Doom3 but every enemy is an archvile and summons only trites
NO go to the corner for your crimes against humanity
But the trites are in the corner.......
Doom 3 but it’s only trites. Everything is trites. Instead of armor pickups is a trite nest
Cherubs are now flying trites
Mancubus are large trites
Archviles are trite queen spawning trites
Pinkies are now fat fast trites
Cyberdemon is now a massive trite
I will SMITE thee with the force of 1000 bfg 10ks
why are you like this
Subway: Eat Trite
Trite
Trite 2 electric boogaloo
Trite 3d
Trite 4-ever
Enemy Territory: Trite Wars
Trite HD
Trite-life:Trite
Trite: trite or be trited
Knee Deep in the Trite
Trite the movie the video game
Trite and knuckles
Trite club
Goldeneye 00Trite
Trite Wars Revenge of the Trite
I have a feeling this conversation has derailed from doom 3
Who cares
A trite place
Your favorite
Speaking of BFG I barely got to the part where you can either kill the guy in the chamber or free him. On nightmare.
I had 50 grenades before I had to stop playing
you quit nightmare?
I see
Picture this, every 8 seconds your gun randomly starts aiming down diagonally on its own
Also your movement randomly tries to walk left
And your right movement doesn’t always register
sounds awful
You bet
Some games are more sensitive than others stick wise. With the deadzones. Unfortunately doom 3 has no deadzone so it’s hella sensitive, so it’s affected the worst
@versed estuary no money for a new controller? You can find them for crazy cheap dude
Joycons are $80 -_-
I'll send you some money
I appreciate the offer, but I have no means to accept any sent money
Dm me your PayPal info?
Don’t have paypal
Damn man... you know I buy stupid shit. I wouldn't mind sending you some cash for a controller. What's your plan then?
Wait for the repair centers to re open, I can send in my controllers free to get them replaced or repaired. But the issue is who knows when it will re open due to the rona
I could e transfer too just talk to your bank to set it up
Don’t have a bank ._.
Dude ... I'm still waiting on things I ordered from before this all started. Itll be until the new doom
you still waiting for that ssg replica?
Oh yeah dude ! Its shipping from Romania I believe. Since then I also got a few key cards! But apparently I wont be getting that prime 1 studio statue until next year. I hope it's worth it. But I did just get my hell knight doom 3 painting. Just need to go pick it up on monday
hell yeah 
Nice!
Cool
I have every doom except for doom 3
You should try doom 3
It’s definitely more slower paced
But it’s a good game nonetheless
Got Doom 3 on steam but its asking me for a CD Key and when I dont have one it just closes the game?
Usually new pirated repacks of old games are better than new licenses.
At least you won't have to worry about the wide-screen fix.
is this game worth playing if you like doom4/5?
It's very different... as Marauder said, it's much slower, more focus on the horror shooter part
@wind ermine go to the games page on steam and somewhere in the settings for it is the cd key
If it asks for a roe key then do the same thing for resurrection of evil
Wow thanks, it didnt work because i hadnt also run resurrection of evil
wouldve thought the base game would work independently of it....
Doom 3: your trapped with demons
Doom Eternal: The demons are trapped with you
Doom 3 roe: the demons are trapped in with you until you run out of ssg shells
hi
Hi
i would really appreciate if anyone would tell me if there's a config setting or something to make this game use a specific sound device. i have a sound blaster x-fi with hardware e.a.x. support i'd like to use, but i don't want to have to make it my default sound device in windows
the original
Okay, is the file a batch file?
If you have doom 3 on steam. Go to steam file, click steam apps, then click, common, then you will see doom 3
yup
Then you click base
yup
Do you extract the file?
what file?
Hey, doom 3 isnt slow paced at all if you play on nightmare mode
the config file?
That's the best way to play it
What you want to do with the config file?
make this game use a specific sound device.
Do you have the mod for that specific sound device?
no, i don't know anything about mods for sound devices
Are you having problems with the specific sounds of the game?
i have a sound blaster x-fi with hardware e.a.x. support i'd like to use.
e.a.x. was a proprietary technology that creative labs developed, to add environmental effects to sounds to make games sound more realistic and intense. 'doom 3' supports it, and there is an option to turn it on in the sound menu in-game, but there's a problem. 'doom 3' only knows to use the default sound device in windows, and so to use the sound device that supports e.a.x., i would have to make that device my default sound device, and i don't want to do that.
e.a.x. is not a mod.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_Audio_Extensions
The Environmental Audio Extensions (or EAX) are a number of digital signal processing presets for audio, present in Creative Technology Sound Blaster sound cards starting with the Sound Blaster Live and the Creative NOMAD/Creative ZEN product lines. Due to the release of Windo...
Ohhh okay I got you.
i was hoping there was a config file setting, mod or source port that would let me specify the correct sound device
Yes
DoomConfig
i think ive found it
you need to find seta s_numberOfSpeakers "2" on the DoomConfig
change it to 4 or to 5.1
or you can go to doom 3, open up the console and type seta s_numberOfSpeakers "2" as well
I don’t think there is a console command to chose a sound device in Doom 3. You may try to turn EAX on in menu and let the game search for compatible sound card, apart of that, it’ll likely choose just the system default
Does Dhewm3 support selecting sound devices I wonder?
no but it's super easy
- Find mod (usually on ModDB)
- Download mod
- Place the contents of the zip file into your Doom 3 directory (steam\steamapps\common\doom 3)
- Load Doom 3 like normal
- Select whatever mod you want to play from the "Select Mod" menu
- Play the mod
Or you open the batch file of the mod and there you go
@little raven dhewm3
yeah doom 3 is from that era where mod support was real mod support (and small furry creatures from alpha centauri were real small furry creatures from alpha centauri)
the game actually has a menu for it
...unless you're playing BFG edition, though you can still make some mods work
you'd need to ask someone more knowledgeable than me for that though, all I know is I did it once a long time ago and don't remember exactly how
The base game is $5. Personally I'd just pony up the cash so I didn't have to mess with the BFG edition
Both are fun in there own way. I like to alternate. You can get both for pretty damn cheap these days. If its your first playthrough though I'd recommend original.
a man of culture
$10 for any newcomer with only new platforms is a steal for doom 3 and both expansions
Of course the true experience is the OG one. But BFG experience is better than no experience of doom 3
You don't need Dhewm3 to play Doom 3 mods. But Dhewm3 has some features for modern systems like widescreen
You can get the lost mission mod for doom 3 ROE and it plays like the same as the bfg Edition. there I save you 19.99 dollar on steam.
has it been ported to dhewm 3 yet?
I don’t know much about dhewm 3
I only play Doom 3 on OG Xbox, any chance of adding those without mods??
If not, no problem. still really awesome!
The xbox version feels less bloated, the pc campaign is too long and had too many bad levels.
Bloated you say!!! That's my childhood you're pooping on!
game has a lot of good moments, in fact the majority is good, but a few maps couldve been cut
The bad parts are worse in Og Doom 3 in comparison to Xbox version, but the good parts are also better
doom 3 is just too long imo. i really do prefer the expansions. they are much less tedious and feel more in line with the older doom games
that shotgun is pitiful. end of story. and you are expected to rely on it for cqc
and in the late game you really just drift towards the plasma gun because it is just better in every way
the double barrel on the other hand behaves like it should
Tell that to my 4 hour speed run on veteran 
I like the detail on the plasma rifle where the ammo gets magnetized
E1m1 is more iconic
The menu music for 3 is one of the best tracks in al of doom
Dooms gate is kinda overrated
Its really great but not as good as some other of the new tracks
Its not even my favorite from doom one
Of course. But like I said it’s more iconic.
If you tell anyone who played classic doom to think of a doom song quickly then first notes they think of are e1m1s song
Yeah
Of course doom 3, 2016, and eternal have some bangers
But hiding the secrets still better in classic doom
The secret level theme for episode 1
Click a wall and hope it lifts
Can’t say I was too much of a fan of that
Or hit a button run across the map
Top 5 doom tracks
5. Into sandys city
4. Hiding the secrets
3. Bfg division
2. Super gore nest
- Gladiator
Doom 3 is the best theme song ever, changed my mind
Doom 3s menu music slaps
Top 10 doom tracks
10. Doom’s gate
9. At eternal’ gate
8. Cultist base
7. Rip and tear
6. Into sandy’s city
5. Doom 3 theme
4. Hiding the secrets
3. Bfg division
2. Super gore nest
- gladiator
I'd say the same but meat hook is dope as well and I like the only thing they fear is you as well
hell on earth, the only thing they fear is you, the imp's song and in the dark are my favorites
Yeah bro non stop playing the album. Love it
And bfg10k
BFG10k is just amazing
And you can forget 2016 had a shit ton of bangers
Oh no, Doom 2016 was absolute heaven
BFG DIVISION was a hell of banger
It's just that Mick Gordon tested the OST from 2016 and since he saw we loved it, he just went ahead and made it better in Doom Eternal
i mean hell just for eternal he remixed BFG Division to be more badass
BFG DIVISION was a hell of banger
@hybrid ibex I prefer that soundtrack that plays in Kadingir sanctum, I forgot its name
The chanting in DAKHMA is hype as well
True dat
Skullhacker and UAC report file .. damn it gets the demon killing blood flowing
Imagine hearing skullhacker while driving
I don't condone this at all but think about it
You'd feel pumped as hell and just wanna go over 150
Yeah its speeding ticket fuel for sure
And also body counts but we ain't talking about that
I just barely bought doom 3
Welcome to hell marine
Get ready to face slowness
Youre late now get your ass to the maintenance level theres a missing scientist you need to find
Well if you are coming from 2016/ eternal oh yeah
And also awesomeness
and the occasional spook
Just sprint at all times if you want to feel faster
but it has cooldown
Go do your duty Doom Slayer
Also only use the shotgun, best weapon in game
It one shots archviles
all kinds of ass
double barrel or normal because normal SUCKS ASS
im sorry i just want someone to not stop playing this okay doom game
Normal is overpowered
And garbage at the same time
It is both your best friend. And your biggest crutch
The normal shotgun actually can one hit revenants if you roll all the dice right
But you gotta be really lucky
the fact i have to shove it up a demons ass to kill them says otherwise and yeah if you hit their rockets
It will either one shot. Or hit the next planet over
im sorry i just want someone to not stop playing this okay doom game
@hybrid ibex No no no bro don't feel bad I'm just joking
Real slayers play on nightmare... itll get nice and fast paced real quick for your ass......
ik
Man I want to play doom 3 again
I swear whoever beats nightmare doom 3 is worthy of the sentinel name
I started nightmare
Got one shot by a lost soul then quit
the fact that the plasma gun is better than the shotgun concerns me considering Id made and defined shotguns inf FPS
Then call me sentinel
They really fucked up the shotgun
Apparently some repair centers will be opening soon. So I can send in my joycons for replacements.
Then I can continue my Nightmare run
the spread is fucking utter garbage
But the roe ssg is so much better
yes
I stopped at roughly 1/5th of the game on nightmare
Sentinel Gougaru, may I know your way of defeating Doom 3? 😇
It’s easy
run
Never stop moving
Play like me and don’t use sprint
at nightmare difficulty that is
Don’t you get the soul cube at the beginning of nightmare
Yeah
What’s the point of it if your max health is 25
Enemies hit harder tho and you Health is constantly decreasing
yeah because you health constantly ticks down to 25 and no health pickups
Grenades are also not as crappy as you think. Cover is your friend, move and strafe. Dont sit still. Basically dont play doom 3 like its meant to be played
The grenades are basically boomerangs
so basically just run around
boioioing
The fans: you can’t just make grenades out of rubber
Id: ha ha grenades go boing
You get good with nades you can clear run rooms fast as hell
Especially for one shot z sec shotgunners
You can hold grenades
Excuse the display. This was before I discovered no brightness and 100fov
What was that animation
How come those motherfuckers get a good shotgun and we get a wet napkin of a weapon
Cooking the grenade yeah
Fuck yeah bob
Did you know they sold the doom 3 grenades as merch for the game
I must have it in my collection !!!!!!!!!
We need a doom 3 remaster
Imagine how beautiful this game would look like with id tech 6 or 7
My favorite favorite part of playing doom for so long is that you develop a sixth sense.
Here is what I mean, I heard nothing. Didn’t see him, but something told me to dodge
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/680650470271877132/714571738465173536/video0.mov
Did you hear him
Nope
I didn’t have my headphones on when I was playing
Since I was with the fam and they woulda thought it was rude, so I also didn’t have volume on so I wouldn’t disturb everyone
I had this feeling of
“Dodge fam”
I’m gonna be getting a new hard drive to make my shit pc work and run much better so this game is gonna be much better
The best weapon without a doubt was the beast of a chaingun
The chaingun is the best chaingun in all of doom
Tbh i Didnt really like it
It just was amazing and ammo is everywhere
That’s were you were wrong
I much preferred the sound look and feel of the Sub machine gun
Ammo was as common as good game journalism
You know how in other games you would use the chaingun to kinda clear huge areas of weak enemies
Yeah even on BFG chaingun ammo is still pretty rare
In doom 3, It‘s an absolute beast
I know the plasma is better but the chaingun is more fun
That’s were you were wrong
@little raven Well for me there was plenty of ammo
Are you on BFG Edition
Yes
BFG increases ammo by about 9000000%
BFG Edition has double ammo
Oh so that‘s why
My estimate might be a little low tho
Well still it‘s an absolute beast though
@untold imp please do your self a favor get the original it’s much better
I‘m tempted
But I mean if you have the money and access go for it
The original is cheaper too
5 dollars is cheaper then 10 bob
And now buy both expansions
On steam doom 3 and roe combined is cheaper then BFG Edition
And lost missions
I heard lost missions is bad
No way I just came on To show you guys something stupid and my drift feels a bit better today I’ll be doing some Nightmare again sweeeet
Well you know, other people‘s opinions aren‘t really reliable
At least try classic I find it’s more fun
Joycon drift is hell
Damn right it is
It always was
I can deal with movement drift, it’s annoying but as long as I’m constantly moving it’s manageable. But aiming drift holy shit
I don’t get angry, at all. But this drift had me tempted to toss the controller against the wall
Tokyo drift
I’m more pissed that my cons drifted during this pandemic. Because repair centers are closed
They had all of last year to drift but nah let’s do it now
Ya know, during the time I REALLY need them.
Remember, there‘s always atleast one person having a worse day than you
Think Imma go nap though cause I‘m tired
Alright I wish you all a wonderful day
Why sleep when you could play doom
Yes obviously there are worse things than me not being able to play video games. No shit
Bro there‘s people getting kicked in the balls or something like that lol and you‘re complaining over not being able to play
Anyway my brain is just mush so I need rest
And I have no right to complain about my misgivings?
That‘s not what I said
Again. No shit there are worse things out there than me not being able to play video games. But you are naive if you want to pretend to start caring about the whole world
For instance if you live in a house with a toilet, and a sink. On your entire life you’ve probably thrown away enough clean water to save hundreds of thousands of people
Let me get some sleep bro I‘m tired as shit and if I made you angry or something then I apologise
Like you said, people have had it worse, but you have to take circumstances into account. Because you don’t know everyone’s circumstances
Whale Looking brain Cacodemons are the most horrifying thing in existence
The babies are worse
Cherubs freaked me the hell out
They are genuinely terrifying
All I hear is crying in a vent and fucker came from my blind spot. I almost yelped out loud at 2 am
I heard baby crying and thought it was ambiance
Then turned around and got attacked by about 4 of them
I played my first run at night only with earbuds, to get the full doom 3 experience. But man screw them
doom 3 is a game enhanced by playing at night with the lights off
100%
Same with metro
Any dark stealth horror game needs the darkness to get the full experience
i almost screamed at 2 am playing whena fucking hellknight ran at me full speed
He meant waddling at full speed
still its scary seeing satans scrotum coming for you
If they moved like the knights in eternal and 2016 doom 3 would have been over at the portal scene
yeaaaah
Well if you didnt have the bfg I guess
Most embarrassing way to die is over charging your bfg
My first time firing it XD
Me fires shotgun: nah
Soldier fires shotgun:
It’s high noon
Same with Machine Gun
Yeah but that’s a machine guns. It’s supposed to
Meanwhile what is seemingly the same shotguns performs better when they have it
fuck trites
I hate cherubs more hahah
the plasma gun is awsome tho
It's a beast but I like the machine gun just because it's fun to use
Im going to put blankets over my window, put something under my door, turn my light off, then play doom 3
@regal dune .. welcome to mars marine
If you're playing doom 3 after playing classic or 2016 eternal and want a fast paced style game you should do bfg nightmare. If you want doom 3 for how it was meant to be played.. you should do doom 3 og
Veteran
^ probably the best way to explain it
BFG gives you the endless ammo which promotes the push through gameplay of newer dooms
gougaru, you do realize you have to beat doom 3 first to unlock nightmare? also the og flashlight becomes a real feature once you play nightmare.
Then do a bob and make your first run Veteran
I figured with my knowledge of doom games and FPS skill Veteran was best choice, and sure enough just hard enough for a decent challenge
Huh... I havent played veteran since the dawn of time. I must have forgotten
Still what I said is true
Ahhh I apologize hahahah. And how is your nightmare run going brotha
past communications, monorail. probably would be farther if i played more than once a week.
Bfg Edition can also be modded and become quite challenging
Yes starting on Veteran is the best option.
Nightmare is bloody unbearable.
Only thing that saves you from it is the manual saving.
Nightmare is the best replay option when you’ve memorized where every monster is located
nightmare is this game's new game+ basically
doom + doom + doom
Nightmare is the only way to actually play doom 3. Veteran is laughably easy
same, im going to assume the lack of enemies was hardware limitations.

With how hard they tried to push graphics multiple enemies at once would fry the game.
At most in a large room there are maybe 5 max?
Not counting Trites
Huge rooms like in doom 2 with enemies everywhere would mess up even the best PCs in 2004.
Oh yeah for sure
They compensated by making most rooms have about 6 billion trites
And you only get a pistol
No weapons. You have to somehow run past them
you have to throw the bible at them
Your fists have been replaced with trites
t r i t e
You are a trite
yes
XD

ok, offtopic a bit but imagine a strategy game where you command demons to take down marine units, that would be cool.
Xdoom
Wait.... no love for the ticks?
Nah

Cherubs are worse
Imagine Doom 3 but every zombie soldier has a soul cube as a main weapon
And has a leap attack
Well that would be easy
You have to kill 5 people to use the soul cube and since there isn’t infighting in 3 they couldn’t attack you
Oh, I didn't think this through.
You have to kill 5 people to use the soul cube
I don't remember killing any people in DooM 3 tho
Fluffy with the checkmate
Then what about DooM 3 but all imps projectiles are replaced with BFG projectiles
If you really want to ruin everyone's day just give everything a shotgun
Imagine Trites but with shotguns 😳
No the shotgun shells after hitting you turn into trites
Enemies have trite launchers
Enemies have shotgunner z sec shotguns
So when they shoot... they fire 8 shotgunner z secs at you
I give it 3 shots before the recursion crashes the game.
Better hit your shots.
im fucking pissed
dhewm 3 doesnt cloud save your save games like the offical doom 3 on steam, and i have to reinstall windows due to a system32 error. SO I lost ALL my progress on my nightmare run.
oh and im probably gonna lose my eternal saves too
i didnt even do anything weird, my pc just decided that system32 was broke
Shit man. I had a glitch in delta 2 in my one run and I had to start again. I feel your pain
Dang that sucks
Yeah my nightmare progress is completely gone, i dont really want to get all the way back to monorail again
I’ll be able to continue my run soon I can’t wait
Dont give up.... it was painful getting ultimate doomer but you deserve the title !!!!
Not hard enough
I feel that one will be a pain. No soul cube of heal afterall
Would be too damn annoying
Well that’s UN in general
All you need is to get sniped by a shotgunner across the map
Nah. In doom 2016 is partial luck. But mostly skill would get you through
Im eternal it’s painful
Doom 3 is a bunch of
PLEASE don’t snipe me with the shotgun
Because the first 2 levels in eternal are the worst ones
Man eternal I can’t waaaait
But once you hit cultist base it becomes legendary
No slippery ice physics too
Ultra nightmare doom 3 will be a dream
Roe nightmare is the most fun
The malidict is a epic boss
On nightmare anyways
What about on veteran
It’s UV so I feel like it’s fine
UV I would say it the only acceptable way to play 2016/eternal
But nightmare is best
However of course I don’t judge people for going lower. They just won’t experience true doom
I didn’t play base doom 3 on veteran or nightmare because I thought the game would be harder
I actually felt it was gunna be easy since it was from 2004
Which is a super stupid argument but I figured it couldn’t be harder than 2016
Nightmare is harder then 2016
Yes and no. It’s artificially harder
It’s a lot more of Peek and bomb side strafing. Vs hit scanners
And door imps
Which the best way to kill them in base doom 3 is a panic shotgun blast
Hoping the shotgun hits of course
So on nightmare it’s basically rolling the dice every time you go through a door
Nah you can strafe a door open and skip the insta death. Just need to get your movement down
Nightmare reflexes https://imgur.com/a/GopxIRY
I just get to the edge of the door. Imps will slam into the sides
BFG edition SPOTTED
Bfg forever
And you... need to beat nightmare
kinda dont want to anymore, still mad i lost about 5 hours of nightmare
Yeah bro I feel ya there. I'd be insanely pissed
its quite discouraging, i'll probably try nightmare again someday
Ya didn’t save?
Bethesda.net is the re release version
Also known as the BFG edition
BFG has more ammo. Brighter maps. And a shoulder flashlight
A small number of maps removed
Meanwhile steam is darker. Less ammo. And a flashlight weapon.
I’m told the darker one is the one you got for for the true doom 3 experience
But it falls down to preference.
dhewm 3 doesnt cloud save
@scenic stratus
Aren’t all Doom 3 saves just in Doom 3 game folder? So if you don’t format your disk drive, all the progress will still be there
No, the original doom 3 on steam saves the games to the cloud. And when you reset your drives you lose all your folders, i couldnt do much as my computer wouldnt boot because of an error in system32
Get the steam version of doom 3
Your playing the original version of doom 3, plus you can whack zombies with your flashlight which it’s fun.
I have Doom 3 on steam
I was using Dhewm3 source port and that doesnt save to cloud
I beated vagary just by throwing grenades
I think the last area of the game they needed throw maybe 6 of those things at you instead of just 2. Considering you have the soul cube and bfg ammo
a moment in the last map with a shit ton of enemies and maybe sone metal playing in the background would be pretty cool, and a good way of saying "you're a badass now, you can do this.
Yeah they really needed to drop the hammer. That would have been insane
im talking like 6 vagaries, a ton of hell knights, arch viles, etc. would have been cool.
Oh yeah dude and maybe three mancubis up in high corners
A true arena fight
That's when the doom 3 theme (menu song )blasts
Doom Eternal made me realize one interesting thing in Doom 3 - your ammo capacity doesn’t make any sense. Doom 3 has probably the highest ammo limits for its weapons and there is nothing even remotely close to the situation where so much ammo could be required
So I’ve modified my character to have only one more clip for each weapon, and suddenly it fits perfectly! You still have plenty chances to refill ammo but on levels you’re forced to switch weapons much more frequently
Call of duty modern warfare 2 let’s you carry almost 1k worth of ammo
having half ammo would be amazing
But realistically yeah. Doom 3 has enough dead soldiers with guns
Ammo clips in cupboards.
And ammunition lockers were carrying 200 rounds of shotgun shells seems excessive
seriously, capping at 50 shells or something would be cool
Trust me, you’ll be fine at 16 shells
definitely
Nah Cuz you miss half of them
30-50 would be reasonable
30
Also ya don’t need to carry 50 grenades
You can basically nuke everything in every room with that kinda firepower
They overload you with shells with the hopes that any of them hit 
It doesn’t make any sense
So your telling me a giant ball of energy holds a computer chip that chooses targets and zaps them
Next thing you'll tell me is that you have flying machines and words transported in the air !!
Anywhoo
Why did they think the cyberdemon boss was a good idea
Was it john trying to sabotage the project
All the bosses are basically poo. Except the malidict on nightmare is a blast
The idea of the boss was badass
Towering massive demon from hell
The execution of the boss was bad
I stand by the idea of 60 commandos rushing you as the final boss
Lol
I woulda been down for some mini horde action coming from the hole
Instead of 1 imp every 40 seconds
5000 trites you say?
Lays eggs that hatch trites the whole time and I'm in
Have the cyberdemon have a shield that’s disabled by the soul cube then you damage him normally until it regens
Has anyone made an only trite mod for doom 3
Like the only enemies are trites
or even just use the soul cube to stagger him and shoot him until he goes non staggered. thats literally the laziest way to improve the boss but it would go a long way.
They didn’t even have late game enemies spawn either
It was just imps
Give me arch viles and hell knights it’s the final boss have some challenge
60 commandos and 70 hellknights
imagine after the 2nd soul cube hell knights and archies start to spawn
Guys, I have a serious question, and would appreciate any help
I’ve decided to make a summary article on the most notable and well designed custom maps and mods. So far I have about 100 of them, only new singleplayer maps and campaigns. I’m going to give a brief overview of every mod, link a video walkthough on youtube and a download link.
The main question RN is - what’s the best place to publish this information? So far I think that Steam Community Guide is the most suited place, but maybe there are alternatives
Not sure to be perfectly honest. Any forums?
Moddb and doomworld can be viable alternatives, but I don’t think they are that visited
i have a bug where the flashlight disappears and can only be fixed by restarting the computer
What's cracking fellas
pissed that even after resetting my pc, completely reinstalling drivers and even taking the thing apart im still getting weird lag issues
ive even scanned my hdd and ssd for issues and it comes out fine
It happened on my old pc too, every computer I own is cursed.
Doom 3 BFG curses cheese
Maybe your PC is too old to handle the beautiful original Doom 3 and want BFG
Have you checked the vent tho ?
yes
Very weird that your PC is becoming an old man in like one second lmao
I have only one word
Corona
Seems reasonable
Yeah, but still weird
Should be able to pic up a decent pc to run doom for pretty cheap these days bro
im kinda broke my man
Wait the government isn't paying you for being stuck at home right now?
Okay fine, you caught me. I'm not struggling but I really don't want to buy another PC.
Well I am a bfg guy so obviously my rig upstairs is also alienwear ( fuck it) I got it 3 years ago and that's how I play all my classic wads and such. 2 grand. It was a great investment man.
my pc can run eternal at high settings and get around 90-130 ish fps normally. in not desperate for a new pc. i just need this one fixed
aaaand it crashed while loading dhewm3
Loading in general or ?

i just clicked the game man
thats a phat yikes from me
Umm, Id say the tech prices will go much lower a year or two in the next gen. Imo not a good idea to buy pc right now
definitely
moddb is usually where I go after I hear about something good, it's a pain to search through when you don't know what you're looking for
@dire crystal I think your idea of making it a steam guide is a good one
Man I’m so excited, only 4-7 more days till I can play Doom 3 again and finish my nightmare run
Join me in the ranks of legends brother
Oh you bet your ass
Once I can I’m only playing doom 3 till I finish
Then Lost missions
Then RoE nightmare
It feels so damn good man
That’s just Doom
i want legend status but my computer goes black screen when loading doom 3
ive done so many things and my pc is still acting like shit. im so fucking done.
I just got a cool new hard drive so hopefully this game runs better
nice!
So cheese you're trite now ?
Detroit: Become Trite
Deep down aren’t we all trites
Trites have family values and love their mother
their mother was a knockoff spider mastermind
They always travel together
They have a strong bond with each other and now how to cooperate
I dont remember the spider mastermind throwing around spiky balls
Mmm spiky balls
Well I dont know about horror. I usually poop on her pretty fast
Virtual 2004 horror*
Yeah the spidermastermind is the worst for that. It's not even remotely fun to combat. Only use for it is the occasional infighting
somebody to play online?
Trites have family values and love their mother
@honest lynx
wrong
i have started playing DOOM 3 and don't really mind the horror and reloading i actually kinda like the aspects
ah yeah a man of culture
You are welcome here
The reloading works because the game is slower
If reloading was in say 2016 it would break the game
100%
But reloading in classic doom doesn’t work
So obviously the most awesome thing to add is reloading
Thanks brutal doom
Someones forgetting about the ssg
the ssg makes sense, no reload makes it too broken
And also eliminates that sweet sweet sound
I could listen to that double reload all day and I'm not even exaggerating
Ssg in doom 64 doesnt reload 🤔
I think this is on roblox as room
@versed estuary nope just makes the sound and I think it still has a delay
Just not the animation
I assume because hardware limitations
exactly why
If I'm getting average 90FPS on default settings with GTX 1650, how well will my laptop run Doom 3?
depends on the laptop i guess
Intel UHD 620 can run Doom 3 reasonably stable.
So i doubt you will have much issue with that game.
@scenic stratus Can a 620 run Eternal with low or normal settings?
good question
Has anyone done a flashlight bonk only run
@exotic tinsel No.
Ok thanks
Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB. This is what I have. It's probably only slightly better, but could it even run the game?
Flashlight+fists+chainsaw+soulcube except for bosses seems achievable. Early levels are totally possible with melee
@exotic tinsel No, you have no chance of running DE in any sensible way possible.
Even if you custom downgrade everything into oblivion using console commands and config tweaks.
Yes but it will not be enough.
On top of that, you are gonna get eye cancer by playing that for 3 minutes.
And if you can withstand lower framerate
Still can't wait to see the switch port
It's gonna be hella impressive
I mean playing Doom Eternal in potato mode at 20 FPS is like doing a 100 meter sprint in a wheelchair.
It will not be slow motion, it will just be like a slideshow.
Game speed is not affected by framerate. We are thankfully long past those days LMAO
That's what my first doom 3 experience was like in 04
Soon ™️
^
Actually tnt is the black sheep because it’s the only one that isn’t good
You should become a comedian
Can you honestly say that 32 straight huge maps with nothing but boredom is good
It’s not hard like plutonia is
It’s just forgettable and bland
Evilution is a boring mess
Doom 3 starts out boring but eventually becomes enjoyable
Plutonia is much better
And doom 3 is better then plutonia
And roe is better then doom 3
Yes
Hey fluffy have you played The Lost mission?
Not a buyable expansion for og?
It is buyable?
Nope
Also the last 3 quarters of doom 3 is more faster paced then all of tnt
100%
When the game picks up it goes fast
For classic the superior version
It’s worse but not unplayable
It gives you double ammo
Males the game easier then 2016
Reprhase that
BFG is not worse, it’s different
You know what we need doom 3 remastered
Are we using the same scale of quality
Because I judge how good a game is based on how better it is compared to super noah’s ark 3d
Tsk I compare a game to how close it can get to the knack scale
So all games are bad because super noah ark 3d is perfection
I preferred the sequel
Is there one actually
All jokes aside
It is actually a good game
It was made because Germany banned wolf 3d for obvious reasons
So id software made a family friendly game to replace it
So it’s basically a wolf 3d clone but it actually controls and plays better
5 dollars on steam
I got it when I bought wolf 3d and was like wow this is better
Trust me it’s legitimately a good game and it supports id software
Is there a keep the dead mod for this game
Monday 
You better beat nightmare. No excuses
Switch breaks day after you buy Eternal. Wyd?
Honestly you already know the answer to that
But the switch won’t break, its quite sturdy internal and external wise. I wish we got eternal already ;-;
But can’t wait to play doom 3 again
It’s my second favorite doom
Just barely under 2016
You know how much I played doom 3 and I'm getting the itch for it right now mid 64
But damn 64 was underrated
Have you played any of the community wads yet
Other than the one we talked about before
Nah like I said my controllers have gotten so bad even classic doom is a pain to play
It would be easy for them to release 64 on switch
What is the other missing doom?
Eternal
You said you are missing 2 and you already said Eternal
Yes, I’m missing 64 and eternal
Is it bc you get 64 free for preordering on Eternal’s release and you are waiting?
Indeed
Indeed!
And it sucks because until the eshop bundle appears letting me preorder no 64 for me
They need to add the quick switching mechanics that Doom re-releases got and some others.
You should play sigil and plutionia as well
Oh I certainly plan on playing all wads when I can
man this is making me want to play doom 3 again
You should ... dou it !
Yeah no excuses
🔦
completed normal doom 3 its a great game now im playing ressurection of evil
I usually like to play lost missions after. Just because its during og dooms story
Roe is a couple years after right
Just a year. Came out in 2005
