But what are the new features that BFG edition adds?
@outer osprey shoulder mounted flashlight
oof
buuuut it has a limit
but but the bonk flashlight
i love b o n k flashlight
I really liked the hell missions than Mars
"guns look a bit op" dude, the series wants to make you feel like a badass
If you've only put an hour or 2 in I'd suggest restarting on veteran. Recruit is a joke
It explains the bad time you're having
well at least we got Icon Of Sin at perfected doom 3 mod
Yes
i mean i stressed a lot so easy difficulty calms me down
and guess what
i was wrong
You're not a bad ass in 3 you're just an average dude trying to live
That's the appeal
indeed
Indeed!
Shut it vega I don't care if your actually god
i think i agreed on Carmack for what he's done to Doom 3
i mean i could get bored of the same style
but the cut content makes the game better
hiding from monsters and Death animation
welp cya gtg
Death animation being cut is sad
riffs away again
cya
doom 3 theme kicks ASS!
lol
doom 3 theme kicks ASS!
@dense steeple yes but the game is not doom at all it's a different element but the name is doom but not doom in the elements of the game
Moving quickly
Holding numerous guns
Killing hella demons
1 man army
Yeah. Not doom
The elements of reloading
Flashlights, stealth,
Doom isn't about stealth
Also it's not about slowing down combat to take cover and reload
Stealth!??!?!?
For every "slow" feature doom 3 has it also forces you to engage in different ways IE. shooting projectiles out of the air, relying on fireballs to light up dark areas, getting in close to get the most out of your shotgun damage
Man that’s Dead giveaway you didn’t play doom 3
And also ducking under attacks with good timing
Or had 0 clue how to play the game
You don't have to play it any one way ...
you can run and gun like a demon "
or load and stalk like an animal
just click click grin!
Stack and load *
Yea doom 3 is as crazy as any other doom game, it just looks edgy and is slower usually
You do be fighting souls of the damned tho
You don't have to play it any one way ...
@frigid token
There is a difference from trying numerous ways to play a game
Vs
Saying it’s a stealth game when it’s not
Dont make me post my nightmare clips for all you fools in here that come in and say doom 3 slow
Can you post those even if I don’t? I’d just wanna see them.
But wait a minute, doom 3 is slow. That can’t be doom 3
Yea
If you play a game slowly, it's gonna feel slow. Who would have thought?
To be fair it is slow, you’re fighting one to two enemies at the time. Fan made maps and mods usually throw more enemies at you, and the best one do it quite well
If you play a game slowly, it's gonna feel slow. Who would have thought?
This game gets very aggressive, you’re fed more and more enemies the further you progress. Rarely is it ever 2 enemies and then nothing past the first hour of the game
(Which is mostly introduction)
I can recall a few times with revenants, cacodemons, imps, and zombies
Funny in 2 of those videos I'm fighting 3 enemies at once and then 4
First video: 1 imp, then 2 imps
Third video: 1 commando, them 1 commando, then achrvile and commando
1-2 at a single moment, kill one, another spawns.
Situations when 3-5 enemies spawn at once are really rare. Yet they are the best
It’s not like 16 where a batch of enemies fight you and then it’s just silence
Doom 3 is constantly throwing shit at you almost every room
No first video is 4 imps that all spawn at once
Lost mission literally every fight is 3+ enemies
Third video all of those enemies come exactly 1 to 2 seconds apart I was moving fast to clear before they swamp the area
That's the point of the video
even the base game has decent sized fights, especially towards the end.
I know I was there
Same
Lost missions has a few places with 6 or more enemies at once
I think Resurrection of Evil had more places with tons of enemies than Lost Missions. At least I remember dying there often on Nightmare
That's the point of the video
@honest lynx
Yeah, I know, I’ve been there as well. If you’re good at Doom 3, that’s how you play it. The thing is once they spawn more monsters, you can’t do that dance anymore, and you start playing differently. In Doom 3, with basic balance, weapons and monsters. But it gets much more unpredictable, and interesting. Nothing wrong in the main campaign and its expansions, but I personally prefer those moments with hordes more.
And that’s why for me fan maps for Doom 3 are peak Doom 3
Most of Doom games doesn't have stealth i guess
None of Doom games have stealth. Unless you count Dark Mod as Doom 3, which you shouldn’t
3 doesnt fuckin have stealth mechanics
it was going to, but they were cut from the game during development
Honestly Doom 3 is probably one of my favorite Doom games, even though the final boss fight of the base game is kinda lame...
And Resurrection of Evil is awesome DLC.
one of us! one of us!
Resurrection of Evil was called expansion pack back in the day. First DLCs appeared a year after it was published
@silver ore I absolutely agree
if doom 3 isnt doom 3 then what should we call it
Doom 3
no, thats the expansion's name
Doom 3
PSA. If doom 3 isnt doom enough for you you're either a scared little baby or you're playing it wrong/ on a noob difficulty ...dont come here complaining it's to slow or not doom enough. You either played 1 hour in or on an easy ass difficulty and you're embarrassing yourself. This server has hard core doom 3 players that will laugh at you.
@dense steeple Maybe "Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil"? Why are you trying to retitle the bloody game? What difference does it make?
its just that i call doom 64 the real doom 3 thats all
Since games like fortnight their is no style in speed
Fight like you were their
As best the animation system allows
I'll do a clip one time
you will think you watched a cinematic in first person view
example ....their are what i will refer to as " Holly wooding the mouse "....
moving it in a way," As to make it appear one was choosing to react to the environment by means of physical peasants ...
If done right you can add a lot of character to your gaming and also good youtube vids
Broom 4 dust of bucket game of the year edition
Clean your room dlc coming oct 21
Maybe they should do a remaster, with new graphics it could totally live up to what it wanted to be
Doom 3 kinda looks well despite its age. I wouldn’t mind some hi-poly models, soft shadows and raytraced indirect lighting though.
Ironically all these things were asked about as early as Doom 3 initial release
@scenic stratus boy#5808 hey did u ever get past mars city with my mod?
is the icon of sin in vanilla doom 3?or is it a mod i just remember seeing somethin about
its in perfected doom 3 mod
yeah, the icon of sin is not in vanilla
its not that good in the mod either though
it's the same as doom 2, but in 3d and you can destroy his projectiles, which makes the fight extremely easy
you're also in an high spot since the very beginning of the fight
and the demons spawn below you, which ruins the point of the fight
Yeah I never got around to forcing the player down to the lower level. Slipped my mind all these years lol
Get in that pit it’s much harder
Doom3 is really good the last two levels, but before is more boring than else
@nova warren Completely agreed. Doom 3 hell levels and the last Mars levels feel almost like Doom '16. They're great.
yes i felt the same in the game. maybe John should have made more levels in that way.
John Romero left id in 1997 if I remember right, could have been '96. He did not work on 3 whatsoever.
John Carmack
Most people mean Romero when they mean John. And I don't think Carmack was a mapper...
@half plank Probably was still involved but not sure in the same way like doom1
John Romero left id in 1997 if I remember right, could have been '96. He did not work on 3 whatsoever.
@half plank
IIRC Romero left in '96 immediately before shipping Quake.
Yeah, there was a disagreement
Baby demon with robot parts
however he was not a mapper but a supervisor, the plot and the lore was his choice
Romero was pissy his rpg elements and such couldn't be in Quake, so he left with a few other Id guys and founded Ion Storm.
Romero barely did any work and deathmatched in his free time, dunno what he expected tbh.
TBH Quake would've been better as something else than an another FPS like Doom.
Quake is great, don't get me wrong, but other failed concepts were much more interesting.
Considering they already had 2 FPS franchises
An fps with rpg elements would be cool.
But yeah, Romero hasn't worked at Id since 96..
So to resolve any confusions, he had nothing to do with 3.
Yeah
It's a shame tho. Carmack loves showcasing his tech in games, but that makes other aspects worse.
Idk, I really liked 3
Especially since HL2 came out the same year, and had better tech without sacrificing as much story or gameplay.
Doom 3 is alright, but could've been way better.
Definitely my favorite of the 2000s Id games, 4 years of work was put into it, it isn't a mere tech demo.
Yeah way better than half life in my opinion lol. That game is boring as fuck
that's your opinion, but for me Half-Life 2 is so much better than Doom 3. It isn't even a contest
This is a Doom server tho, so whatever, I'm not going to argue
@honest lynx Why is it boring for you? Doom 3 is pretty similar to HL1 IMO.
Yeah that's your opinion it's a convoluted story with lame walk around shoot mechanics and boring fire fights. Dont like half life at all. Its overrated and boring
What's your opinion on Doom 3?
Its fucking amazing. That's my opinion
Alright
I like 3, wouldn't call it the best, but it's alright
I don't have very many games that I've played once a year at least
Doom Eternal > Doom 2016 > Doom 3 > Ultimate Doom > Doom II > Final Doom > Doom 64
For me it's the 3rd best one imo
Is there any way to get multiplayer working? I'm using the dhewm3 client.
What if they made Sergeant Kelly or Betrüger show up as a cameo lol
Thet already did in Ancient gods. One of the locations in blood swamps is Betruger’s Castle or something
hey chat. in doom 3s artwork on the xbox menu,what is the demon behind the soldoer supposed to be?it looks like a mancubus but obviously isnt
i believe it is actually
its a completely seperate design tho
Honestly looks like a scrapped demon design
It’s definitely not a mancubus because no arm canons and mouth is weird
And the fact the player is dual wielding automatic pistols
damn, just trynna post demon
doom 3 isn't hard to play it just dark mode activated
Nightmare can get pretty intense
Thats the guardian of hell guys. Not sure why its standing up though
When you have 25hp and face shotgunners chaingunners etc
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/757420034229272579/769284686383022080/ly0vSAJ.jpg the demon in the image sorta looks like this demon
which is completely unused
The guardian has the same hands as well
Normally I would have agreed
But the head is soooo different
Maybe if was a concept for the guardian tho
Like you said the hands are the same
Yeah it looks the same in the picture with the horns but its barley visable in the picture
Just a weird concept art of the guardian most likely
Maybe just a failed concept demon then
Tru tru
If you google concept art for guardian doom 3. The image that pops up is the picture in question
That's my closest guess
What an obscure demon to put on the cover
What's the best way to play doom 3 on console?

The game is underrated nowadays. It is highly amusing, horrific, scary and TOO BAD ASS in a good sense.

@scenic stratus doom 3 has coop?
yes, see the youtube link above
I own PS 4, but I play old games on average laptop lol
Doom 3 with a official coop its been awesome, like killing bosses in teams, its an awesome dream

official one was on xbox
Im ps4 player for life 😎 👍
I hope bethesda not going to make futures doom games exclusives :(
I don't play bethesda's doom games
well, i've done a quick walkthrough. but it's nothing enternaining to me.
yes, they are part of my childhood. but I wouldn't play them nowadays
I prefer Dead Space to the two latest DooMs
I see, well i cant say im a older fan, but i love all doom games, personally i think doom 3 is a very good game
It is I'm installing og doom 3 as we speak
I prefer Dead Space to the two latest DooMs
@scenic stratus well all have an opinion, personally i think the new dooms are amazing but i respect your opinion
doom
it's been long i didn't play Doom 3
Why do people think this game is bad?
Because they suck ass

honestly
doom 3 is my least favourite game in the series but
its still a really good game

I take it you do not like 3?
I mean there is a difference between series and game
Me too 3 is the least favorite but hoh god its GOOD
Any mod to make Doom 3 more like Doom 2016 and Eternal in terms of gameplay?
I think that would probably break the game doing that
hmm
Depends on what change you seek. More monsters in the existing levels and glory kills - very hard to do. High player speed and gaining health from the enemies - the game already has that in the form of BFG Edition, and soul cube. Making quick switch and limiting ammo - that’s pretty possible, but I doubt such mods exist.
I think the custom campaigns were the closest thing to New Doom gameplay, like In Hell and Fragging Free
its a great game nonetheless but it takes the game in a more horror way
although that didn't really succeed but its still a pretty good game
the slow pace combat ain't bad also you can play it coop
I take it you do not like 3?
i do like the game, as i said it's really good
the fact it's my least favourite in the series doesn't mean i dislike it lol
It isnt very slow on nightmare. And if you play fast the game is fast. Walking slow hiding in corners door fighting. The way most play doom 3 bogs the experience down if you want a faster type of playthrough
Why would you want to mod doom 3 to make it like eternal or 2016 when the level design doesn't support that style of gameplay. It's just stuipid...
I'd suggest playing 2016 and eternal if you want that experience
Play doom 3 if you want the doom 3 experience
I'd be down for a more action focused mod. But, the enemy ai would need to be reworked, guns would need to be tweaked a bit, and levels would need massive overhauls.
Well sure a overhaul, ie total conversion sure. Try the phobos mod. But most mods suck for games anyway. They can never get the atmosphere right, or the tone and have terrible voice acting that is just cringe...
Personally I want to see a Doom 3 mod like systemshock, prey 2017 or bioshock. Returning to previous levels and unlocking areas that were locked previously. Like a metroid-vania style Doom game.
I only play maps for doom 1 or 2. No voice acting great action maps lmao
When I mean more action orientated, I was thinking on the level of Quake II.
Still fast, but not enough to give you motion sickness
lol
My only complaint is Doom 3 is too easy. It's only major flaw imo
I agree fully. The hardware at the time was probably to blame though.
Having hordes of demons at a time was bound to melt even the best PC in 2004.
Yeah at the time I had a ball mouse ibm keyboard (the best keyboards) and was averaging 30fps or 40 on medium settings
Yeah, the engine itself was extremely high tech at the time, required a lot of power just to play it as is.
30+ demons at a time would have killed performance.
@half plank i was more thinking about the spawn times for enemies they're too slow. When the imps hit that roar animation i just rush them with a shotgun before they can attack
Oh yeah, good ol' "whack a demon".
Reeee the shotgun spread is too far apart!!!! Well get closer then
Shotgun in doom 3 is made for point blank range
Also never aim head height, always chest height. Hate when most people can't understand this...
Oh thanks for the tip
Doom 3's weapons do feel a little janky, but, if you learn how to use them, they become really fun to shoot things with.
@half plank yeah I personally think doom 3 has the most satisfying plasma rifle
Agreed on that one.
The reload sound is so good
The clunk of the canister hitting the floor and that charge up sound
Also has my fav bfg
https://youtu.be/OQAd-HHdf1c cool vid of the doom 3 atmosphere ♥
Collage of DOOM 3 visuals. No music, because DOOM 3 doesn't really have music. Instead, the ambiance of each clip is preserved for the display.

0 dislikes, good.
Interesting
Very good
any where I can still get mods for this?
visual ehancements mods I mean
so many files on ModDB have been deleted or unavailable 😦
also I still need the mp achievements so hit me up if you want to have a go at them XD
Sikk Mod
The shotgun is cant kill anything if you're more then 2 feet away
If you turn Eternal's Unmaykr to a potato, you get Doom 3 shotgun.
for those who need more horror and agony in life https://store.steampowered.com/app/729060/Silent_Descent/
can't share links... for more info google images by phrase
silent descent pc
*The shotgun can kill anything if you're closer than 2 feet
truth
So
what are good enhancement mods for the BFG Edition?
I'd recommend BFA Edition mod out of them all. Fixes the Doom 1 and 2 ports, enhances lighting on Doom 3, gives you option for OG flashlight mechanics. It's probably the best mod for BFG Edition.
sweet
The shotgun is cant kill anything if you're more then 2 feet away
@jaunty turret best melee in the game though

I could have sworn when the BFG edition on Steam was updated to the new implementation that they kept the legacy version there as well as an alternate launch option. But it seems to be gone now. Was it removed or am I crazy?
(Not talking about the original Doom 3 which is a separate Steam item obviously)
Nope it was never updated
Proof they don't care at all about 3
You're right I had it all backwards I'm confused. My bad. It's Doom 1 and 2 that have the new implementation
Smh
gonna give it the poetry award
No one thought it was BAD when it released honestly. It's basically a new meme by noobs who's first doom experience was 2016
I dont know any actual big doom fans that hate doom 3. Maybe not love it but still think it's a great game for what it is
It's the same thing over and over again. Slight critiques grow into a funny joke and then they are overblown over the years into actual complaints until they become what everyone loves to hate. I see this in every fandom.
looks at Star Wars and Doctor Who
I'm fairly new to this series, I've played all the classic games up to 64, what should I expect going into Doom 3? If you all don't mind me asking.
@scarlet geyser
Expect something entirely new. The game is more horror focused, and a bit slower than the rest. But, it's still solid demon-slaying action. Definitely going into it expecting more Classic Doom would probably be a pretty bad thing to do.
Oh yeah, I am prepared for a much different experience when I get around to it, I just didn't know what exactly the "different" comprised of. Thank you so much!
It also has a little more plot-focus too. Nothing too intrusive though.
And the action take a long time to come
Yeah
Doom 3 = Doom + Half-life + System Shock 2
or
Doom 3 = Dead Space in first person
yup, kind of
When I start playing Doom 3 I get stuck, but after I die I give Rage Quit
I can't stop playing Doom 3
Never give up.
am i the only who's favorite doom game is doom 3
Nah its definitely one of my favorites as well
I own BFG, still gotta play the badboy
also, anyways to get the DOOM III eternal skin by playing BFG edition or do you need another version
Doom 3 definitely one of my faves as well
You need the 2019 rerelease from bethesda.net, not worth buying if you already own it tbh.
oh, that's sucks
So glad I got to play doom 3 and beat the main campaign looking forward to trying out the dlcs
Do lost missions first then roe
ROE seems to be fun
My complaints of doom 3 main campaign come down to the game not really being scary, and predictable demon spawns and closets, gets old really quick, and when the horror element is gone, I'm not left with much. ROE has a few unique mechanics, enough to make it feel fresh, overall I think Doom 3 is neat, but it could be better
hey guys. who wants to play doom 3 coop ? i never tried it and wanna check, work or not
Doom3 has multiplayer?
or co-op?
Dont remember that being a thing back when it released
@prisma mantle coop mode
I beat doom 3 main camp on veteran
I would do the same for the dlcs next
Also finally getting to square off with doom 3 cyber demon was fun
is there any difference between the steam version of doom 3 and the bethesda re-release? other than the doom eternal cosmetic
is there any difference between the steam version of doom 3 and the bethesda re-release? other than the doom eternal cosmetic
@oak haven
It is basically bfg edition of Doom 3 with the shoulder mounted flash light and twice the ammo pick ups, that sort of thing.
steam version it is
Depending what you get, if you get just Doom 3, its the 2004 release. If you get Doom 3: BFG Edition, that's basically what your gonna get out of the Bethesda release, except doom 1 and 2, and the skin for eternal.
If you want the skin for eternal just get the Bethesda re-release, if you want to play doom 3, i recommend the 2004 release.
yeah i already had the bfg edition on steam, but i heard that it was very much inferior to the original
In my opinion i like the original version than the bfg edition, but it takes some work to get the original version set up but its fun when you do.
It’s basically some console commands and custom sounds for your liking
aren't there BFG mods to restore the OG a bit
also, I just started DOOM 3
I already knew Harbinger came from D3 but apparently so does the Dr. Samuel Hayden theme
Well there is DOOM BFA for starters, which allows you to change the flashlight to the OG one and has support for EAX audio.
Delta Labs 4 you meet 2 of them
Anyone else get physically lost in Doom 3? Trying to help a streamer in one of the first missions.
Not sure how he managed that? It's pretty simple navigating
The only map I’d say it’s possible to get lost in is
Communications?
With the lift
Only because the area you need to raise into is dark and doesn’t look like a space
My dumb ass got lost multiple times on my first Doom 3 playthrough. 
What’s the best weapon in doom 3
Shotgun
Plasma Gun
C'mon, I like to blow Doom 3 four times a week, and even I know the shotgun is the worst Doom shotgun.
Which is upsetting
How to make the shotgun good and balanced:
-reduce spread
-reduce damage output
BOOM, thats it
Sounds lame
That just means it will still take 2 shots to kill anything
Except now you can’t kill on the first shot
RoE's best gun is obviously the super shotgun
Of course
Aka beefy boi
Spoopy Doom
Rocket and plasma are very good weapons aside from bfg and soul cube
Chaingun is also really good
I use Shotgun without any problems

I really want there to be a mod that adds in RPG stats to the game. It could be fun.
So I've heard that one of the guys from Nine Inch Nails (the guy that made the Quake soundtrack) also made the soundtrack for Doom 3 but to legal issues it couldn't be used in-game
is there anyway I could find that soundtrack?
I'd look around to make sure that's true first.
Looking into it yeah just read it. And in the same search found the soundtrack mods online.
Thanks
Oh hell yeah, I need to play with these
holy shit are these sfx better
Should I get doom 3
If you're okay with the slower pace, spooky atmosphere (and don't care about the flashlight issue if your getting vanilla) then go for it.
Just bought Doom 3 on PS4. Weirdly enough it doesn't say BFG Edition, but unfortunately it IS the BFG Edition, right? Or they gave the game the same treatment as Doom and Doom 2 with the original PC release?
Console versions are BFG IIRC.
My soul is screaming in pain right now.
You wanted vanilla Doom 3?
Yeah.
Mostly because in vanilla D3 there's no double ammo packages or full brightness shit.
Can you get mods for doom 3
Sure, there's the flashlight or weapon thing, but it's part of the experience.
If I had a good PC, I would've gotten all six games on PC instead of getting em on PS4.
I see.
I mean, okay, Doom 3 is the black sheep of the series after 2016, but Absolution was also considered way different from Classic Doom due to an entirely new ambient soundtrack and overall feeling, but it is still Doom.
d gyjhf doom 32 god0/
Doom 3 IS completely different from the previous and later entries... And the fact that it moved from action to horror kinda turned me away from it.
Also the Shotgun.
uhh gdom 3 good/ nont epoics?
But now it's been 14 years, I'm a big boy, imma get through this fucker in a heartbeat.
If you want to spice up this playthrough for yourself give nightmare a go. It ramps up the speed of the game and the intensity of encounters if you're looking for that mayhem/ more action
And the shotgun can kill just about anything if you get close enough to kiss an imp
I just play veteran, although nightmare is interesting in doom 3, just don't like it
Veteran is definitely a more relaxed way to play if and how it was meant to be played. For more advanced doom 3 players it's an interesting change /challenge( nightmare )
Nightmare is bullshit, health ticking down to 25 and you have the Soul Cube from the start.
Imma definitely start on Veteran, that's for sure.
Well you can’t start on nightmare you have to beat the game first
Also it’s not that bad, if you play as doom 3 is intended your health should almost never reach 25 anyways
Yeah you should. And nightmare is after you beat it once. Nightmare is only for those who want to increase the combat speed
I never went beyond the second level of Doom 3 because I hated the Shotgun so much.
Yeah door hugging with it never ends well
Yeah, I know. The dance.
You need to give those demons a rectal exam
Avoid fireball, run to the pores, aim for the center of mass, and pull the trigger.
With the shotgun
Or you can let it close the distance as long as you're ready for a potential leap
Then rush it.. smoke the fucker
I expect the Chaingun to be the best weapon of the game, besides the Plasma Rifle.
The machine gun is my bread and butter as well. Very reliable.
I feel like the chaingun is more for close range than long range, thats why we have the smg
Yeah the machine gun is definitely for those further encounters and headshots
Could the rocket launcher be counted as a long range weapon, for all the sniping you are doing in game
It's more effective mid
Does u guys use delta touch to play doom 3?
I was thinking about the fact that this game technically have an spin-off and a sequel
Imagine the next doom is just like doom 3, slow and dark
I hope not
I mean
it would follow the trend
3rd game is horror, the other 2 balls to the walls over the top action shooty-shooty game
doom 3 wasn't a success like first 2
I think it was an experiment to try and lead the franchise into a different theme
aaand it ultimately failed so i doubt they'll do it again
shame
I'd like a 3 remake with all the cool stuff that 2016 and Eternal have brought over
So it'd be a best-of-both worlds
maybe
but I think doom 2016 is already the best of both worlds
its atmosphere is dark and sort of scary like doom 3
but its still got that run and gun gameplay going on
I mean, I guess
Not one for scary games
And I haven't played a lot of D3 (bcs old laptop acted up)
But I don't have that vibe with 2016
to each their own 
yep
Doom 3 did okay when it released. It just happened to release the same year as dozens of amazing games. It actually was not hated when it came out. Any doom fan can appreciate it for it's own unique qualities. Comparing it to other doom games style and pace and then saying it's a bad game because it isnt the same is just silly and dumb
keep in mind, people forget this game because games like Half Life 2 and Halo 2 released in 2004.
True
3 of the big FPS players at the time
Well
Doom wasn't even a player anymore back then
Gta San Andres, far cry, fable , metal gear solid 3 knights of the old republic 2, ninja giaden , hitman 2, unreal tournament.... I could go on. 2004 was one of the most amazing years in gaming
Damn, that many
Hell counter strike source as well if you want an fps example
GTA, MGS, Hitman, Halo, HL2, Unreal Tournament are also fps games
Gta hitman mgs are NOT fps games
Far Cry, Chronicles of Riddick, UT 2004, Painkiller, Tribes Vengeance, Halo 2 and Half-life 2. There were a lot of FPS games back then in 2004
I remember Doom 3 being criticized for:
Not having multiplayer as good as UT2004
Having worse textures and models than Riddick
Not having good open areas as Far Cry
Not having as much variety and action as Painkiller
Not having as good animation and interactivity as Half-life 2
Most of which sound quite ridiculous now. Basically the was criticized for not being like other game
Yeah, which is rather funny, proves critics have always been dumb.
That’s stupid
Doom 64 had a lot of critiques like that too iirc especially “no multiplayer!!!!! It’s not like THIS game!!”
@white kiln No spamming.
I remember 64 getting some hate and being slightly forgotten as well
I recommend doom 1 or 2
They include numerous free add ons
So you get your money worth
I think doom 1 is better in my opinion, but if your playing with add ons get doom 2 @scenic stratus
Check #classic-doom
Bruh doom 1 is great
Yes it is
Is it ok I have not played doom 3
yeah
I recommend doom 3
Doom 3 is at the bottom of my list,I would play all the other games before three,but that is just my opinion
I played them:Doom Eternal,Doom 1,Doom 2,Doom 3,Doom 2016,and then Doom 64.
Doom 2 as a game is terrible
As a wad launcher its good
truth
And some other demons
Adding stuff but making god awful map design is no good
yeah
Doom 3 feels more like resident evil than doom
I’ve played resident evil. Doom 3 is nothing like that
Doom 3 was very away from the series,and it only reminds me of the movie
The Caco and Pinkie looks very off in D3
The god awful movie
bcs the movie was made for the game
Doom 3 has fast movement
Hella demons
Holding hella guns
With hella ammo
Nah doom 3 is plenty doom enough on nightmare mode. But I do like doom2. Although i had some hate after my doom 2 nightmare run there are some gems in there
Sounds like doom to me
Doom 3 has sparse ammo,demons look more like Trevor Henderson drawings,sprinting was never new,and doom three actually gave you stamina,plus the stupid cabinet things,it had slow ass aiming speed,the demons didn’t look like the original demons,it didn’t give us any new demons,it was dark as hell,and had tons of other stupid puzzle shit
Sparse ammo?

You ever played doom 3????
Yes,I have all the Doom games
And yet sparse ammo
Hell doom 1 and 2 give you less ammo in several episodes and levels
Aiming is on you, not the game
Didnt give any new demons?
Half the game was new demons
Unless you actually wanted to sit down and go through your audio logs to find a way to open a single cabinet
And only about 1% of cabinets were locked behind audio logs
Hellknight design was retained. Archville is the same. Imp is better design than the new games.
The rest were emails or post it notes
Man I’ve seen people try to bash doom 3 before but you are literally spewing pure incorrect knowledge there
Aiming is fast. Target acquisition is fast. Movement is fast
I don’t care,Doom three sucks ass
As for “puzzles” it has like 2. Max.
It’s so fucking slow
Oh boy, the Doom 3 hate boner is painfully erect.
You don't know anything about doom. Your arguments are a joke and lies
Well,it’s an opinion
I’ve seen some bait. But that entire paragraph is worse than Deans gameplay
There’s having an opinion, then there’s having an opinion based on insanely inaccurate information
Hmmm...
Its slower than the other dooms but not slow. Unless hes been playing on a low difficulty and door fighting . Which is what it sounds like to me
It sold 3.5 million copies and is the most successful ID software game to date

I have failed
wait what
I still prefer Doom 1/2
Actually no, just shitting on it to shit on it is bait.
Shitting on it for a valid reason is fine,
You have not described a single valid reason,
The only opinions you have that can be “fine” are
“it’s dark”
And “don’t like how demons work”
I still dislike the caco demon design
That is a bad design haha
Hellknight imp and arch are very bad ass to me though
Doom three was very tight though
Resurrection of Evil is more Doom than Doom 3's base game I feel
imp is also weird
Pinky was weird but it’s design is functional
Can’t have huge hulking speedy pinkies
Hellknight is nice (except the eyes)
@scenic stratus definitely faster pace
Roe was closer to modern doom while keeping the atmosphere of doom 3
Lost mission threw away most atmosphere for pure run and Gun
But lost missions Hell is

I always recommend doing a nightmare run in 3 if you want to increase the speed and and engagement intensity. It dials it up about 100
Hmmm maybe
a DOOM ETERNAL Shotgun would feel out of place tho
But the it wouldn’t have been very balanced
doom 3 shotgun is definitely in my top worst game weapons list
I know people keep saying “make it more accurate”
But then why use any other gun?
Then reduce damage,
But then it takes 2 shots to kill which it already does
Honestly I find the doom 3 shotgun super good
It can instakill most demons, or just needs 2 shots to kill
In my experience, the only time it one shotted anything was if I was literally nose to nose with an imp and I got a headshot
Ye you gotta hug demons
doom 3 isnt too bad, but i do admit it can be kinda dark when you go through rooms which can be kind of annoying.
Okay,two things about Doom three:one,the reload time is annoying,and two:there is a fall damage
But other than that it’s pretty good
what really pisses me off isn't reload time, fall damage, scarce ammo, or anything like that
its how the moment you get hit your entire screen shifts away like, completely. you might as well be turning around.
it makes it impossible to aim and shoot properly sometimes
Dont get hit
And with the main security guards,there shotgun blast can knock you completely off things
If you're getting shot enough by them to be knocked off something you're doing something wrong
or you're me
Same thing
I guess I suck at 3 now, I'm dying more and more.
We are gonna to revoke the doom 3 pass from you
i don't have it since i didn't finished on NM
Lmao
Flat gets his pass revoked for not finishing nightmare
Y
Lazyness
If anything I found nightmare easier since you can literally instakill strong enemies through walls
Yes but no
Instakilling archviles essentially skips entire encounters
Yeah but lazyness is way more dangerous
This is tru
I can't kill him with the cube
You can do ot flat I believe in you
Need more doom 3 emoji
^^^
I want to react with
T r i t e s
Add the damn spider 
Tritecubus
spondr
fucking hate trites




i could slay them as much as i can

If doom 3 had an arena mode, imagine how many trite rounds there would be
Soooo I may have just bought doom 3
👍
is it fun?
Why would you buy a game if you don’t know if it’s fun
cuz im collecting games?
That’s fair
Doom 3 is the “slowest” doom game
It has reloading
And focuses a lot more on the horror aspect of doom
It is however
Not a slow game
You will still be moving fast and killing demons with numerous weapons
I personally find it very fun, and it’s my second favorite doom
Yeah, it's different, think of it as a spinoff.
............
Fear of imp eyes hey
Trypo is the fear of many small holes/circles/dots so I can see why
i don't like what they did to pinkies in doom 3
they look extremely different from their doom 1 and 2 counterparts
I do wish they looked a little more demonic but they're still scary as shit
Penises with teeth and robotic legs arent demonic enough for you ?
Penises with teeth and robotic legs arent demonic enough for you ?
Sounds like an ad for a freaky sex toy, lmao.
Fear of imp eyes hey
@honest lynx yea i got shivers when i see them
Who Do You Think Is the Worst Monster in Doom 3
I haven't finished playing it yet so I find at the moment the pinky is the worst monster in Doom 3 (I'm just at Delta Labs Level 4
)
Cacodemon
Agreed
i havent played doom 3 but ive seen the monsters and i think the trite is the worst to me

yup
Ticks are the worst. Trites are the best
lost souls are horrifying in doom 3
Tbh for me I really hated the hell knights for a bit they would always kill me then I just BFG them and it was pretty easy
I still cannot for the life of me understand what the point of bruiser’s tv monitor is, nor why he has such pristine human teeth
Were they using him to test dental hygiene or something?
Maybe the teeth are meant to be a distraction long enough for him to pummel you with rockets
I swear the Doom 3 art designers got high as fuck designing the Bruiser.
hits blunt "tv mouth"
TV MOUTH
I think whoever designed him was just laid off and needed to finish out the week
Yeah
Like bro... BARON..... you can make a BARON! Or use the demon from the damn e3 demo
TV face and air tank hands ?
no matter what you guys said from Doom 3 monsters i always hates Archviles
They are the easiest demons to deal with in 3
just hate them thats all
Every demon in doom 3 is easier to kill then their classic counter parts
@covert anchor incorrect. Classic imps are easier to kill
bruh I hate the soldiers already
the little spider dudes are ok but when I see a shotgun dude I fucking run away
Imps can go back to hell, and wtf are those weird biting dudes?
I'm at alpha labs sector 4 rn
Biting Dudes? You mean the ones with metallic back legs? Those are supposed to he pinkies, lmao.
I didn't know that until my second play through
From a game design stand point they make sense
Hard to have hulk hulking speedy pinkies in tight spaces
But they barley appeared in the game
Biggest gripe with 3 is lack of creative enemy use until the end.
At least in lost missions you get that epic pinky fight after the river styx
Barley played lost missions, i should probably reinstall doom 3 on ps4 to play it
Or just find a mod that puts the lost missions in regular doom 3
I got you
cringe
Cringe
Cringe
This troll doesn't work, I play PC.
Same
Are there models you can make or buy of the Soul Cube??
I hate toaster bunny
I wonder what they based the soul cube off of?
Always reminded me of hellraiser
Yep
Because you bait
Your opinion is stupid just like you
Cringe
Joins chat
“Doom3 sucks”
lol
In other words, you had no reason to join doom 3 chat
No way really?
lol i was just giving my opinion
i'll delete the message if that will get you guys off my back
You opinion is valid, it just comes off as baity.
Don’t, joining to say something sucks is just bait
And baiting is against the rules
A good argument is always welcome though.
I gotta say, we wouldn't be on your back if you provided reasoning or something. Simply saying "[x] sucks, lol" is just immature. Hell, even turning your opinions into a fair discussion would be fine too.
I can try to be mature i guess i mean...i'm not an adult so that would be difficult
You don’t have to be an adult to be mature
It's ok bro, learning is part of growing up.
fr tho you guys lowkey flamed me XD
Didn't mean to be a dick, I overreacted over a game released in 2004. Gotta work on my mood swings I guess. Sorry.
I think its okay
theres a brightness setting in the graphics settings
it didn't help at all
The game's dark, you can't magically make it super bright.
To avoid getting spooked, try Shooting the Monsters
i shouldn't have chosen the nightmare difficulty in my first play
Oh god yeah dont do that for your first lol
i though doom 3 would be the same has the classic doom lol
Nightmare isn't possible on first time?
Damn
Is your health lowering?
If it aint then you're probably on veteran (which is a pretty good difficulty i think)
Cool, how is it?
Hell yeah, welcome to the club bro
Ah yes, a Doom player of culture.
The game crashed on switch
I went to save and it crashed
I finished doom 3 today
@gray nimbus good stuff my dude
i think people hate it because it changed the formula too much for the og players
and if someone came from 3 to 2016 they'd be like
"What? This is nothing like Doom 3?!"
lol
Yeah but I also didnt think it was bad because the formula is different and the game is bascially another game. That would be ignorant saying it's a bad game because its different
i'm not saying it was a bad game
but coming from a franchise like doom
you know a change in the formula like doom 3 would get the internet salty
but i think it's actually the best selling doom game
maybe
eternal or 2016 might have said something about that
It actually wasnt hated or anything in 2004 when it came out. Sure some fans weren't excited but it didnt get its meme hate until 2016.
yeah..
The expansions are brighter
We will watch your career with great interest.
3 is a unique take on the Doom formula, most just quit cause it's different, sadly. Glad to know you're a fellow Doom 3 enjoyer. 
How far are you?
Oh, because it progressively gets better.
Doom 3 shotgun is fine as is
Doom 3 shotgun is wack
It can three hit an imp
At close range
Yeah
It’s rng is crazy
Doom 3 shotgun takes on average 2 shots to kill anything
Increases accuracy but reducing damage would still make it take 2 shots average to kill anything
In other words it’s good as is without being unbalanced
I like to strafe jump into monsters with it
It should be more accurate without the damage reduction
3 is the only doom game without a good shotgun
Machine gun all the way
Add a few more booms cause that’s how many shots it takes to kill any enemy
Imagine spamming
Tsk
They should bring back doom 3 enemies
Every doom 3 enemy?
Machine is definitely my favorite as well
But with how much ammo shotgun gets giving it accuracy with no nerf makes it broken
Engagement wise maybe. Love shooting them in the tummy with the machine gun. But they look similar to classic in a weird alien way

@astral drift
It also takes 1 to kill an archvile
Also doom eternal and doom 2016 shotguns are worse
Vagary is the worst design
Bruh the shotgun can’t one shot an archvile
You haven’t shot an archvile then
You can one shot a revenant on very rare occasions but that’s about it
Who cares about mods it‘s all about the BFG edition 
BFG edition best edition
Idc what anyone says the flashlight in normal doom 3 is bad
Brighter, more ammo, is on switch, includes Lost Mission
Where you can get the ssg in 12 min

Yes
The shoulder flashlight is also very snazzy
Duct tape
I like to actually see what I’m shooting at without giving myself a seizure trying to use muzzle flashes to see
Yeah to both of you
Doom 3 handheld on switch felt fantastic
Really shows the corporation that is the UAC really well. Better than any other doom game has. One of the things I love about it the most
Gotta get my joycons fixed so I can do it again
Both 3 and 2016 show how the UAC were corrupt but eternal just forgets about the UAC
The holograms in 2016 were done perfectly
Subtle dark humor
Eternal is way too in your face about everything in general
And the mortally challenged joke was absolutely massacred
Eternal both somehow manages to create a massive story and tell nothing
Doom 3 has a subtle story and tells everything
Subtlety people
It’s all it takes
Bro sabaoth is such a metal boss
Built different
The og doom hunter
Well yeah it actually has character
now see if you can patch up that critical damage with flex tape
Flex tape for the flashlight
Nah, flex tape clear
^
Doom hunter in doom eternal is my favorite mini boss
@astral drift i thought the one you fight in the base was an actual full boss
My favorite is vagary because you can destory her fast and shes actually a doom 3 boss and not from a different game that isnt doom 3
Yes and no
On nightmare you can kill her in 5 seconds. That's my record so far
She can screw over your grenades with throwing things
The elders are always watching you child
Has anyone played the game on Xbox Series X|S?
I expect a solid 60 fps with no dips
Or PS5
I mean it’s a game from 2004
Thinking of buying doom 3 for console, is my best bet the bethesda remake?
Or PS5
@slim willow i'm not sure doom 3 is on the ps2 or ps3
actually f* me you can buy it on the ps store
Thinking of buying doom 3 for console, is my best bet the bethesda remake?
@carmine horizon the bethesda one is pretty much your only option
I'm not sure if the original xbox version is backwards compatible on Xbox Series X
i wish it was
Yeah it isn't
Can't believe they don't even have the original halos as backwards compatible
Looks nothing like the halo assault rifle.. I believe it was modeled off the p90 submachine gun
I mean the little screen on it isnt really helping its case though...but it looks more like a p90 yeah
Having a digital ammo counter is just a futuristic design. Well it looks futuristic anyways. Most likely why it was used. Like the ones used in aliens, judge dredd
Pretty sure only like 4 weapons had an ammo count
Chaingun, plasma gun, bfg and assualt rifle.
Soul cube, rocket launcher, grenades, chainsaw, shotgun, pistol, flash light (depending on version of course) and if you want to put resurrection of evil, the super shotgun
I'm currently doing my first playthrough of RoE
I just get close where you could see each pixel of the zombie's face then shoot him
Gets them almost every time
Why am i not in doom 3 you are inside the UAC
Betruger
Dr palpatine
figured this is a better place to put this but Dhewm3 runs well on the pi as far as I can tell
Doom 3 totally deserves a remake
Its got some great ideas, but i guess the closest we have is dead space


Is it normal for enemies to get stuck in frozen positions/animations? Been happening a lot lately
It’s kind of funny
I’ll just post it in showroom
again the closest thing we have is dead space 1 I guess
Wont be getting another doom 3 like game most likely. Maybe a remaster but that's highly unlikely
remaster 2: elektric boogaloo
I've been playing it over a decade and still play it once a year. The fan base is small but its loyal
I love 3, I played it a bit too much recently though, a bit burned out. Will probably find enjoyment in a few months again, lol.
I wanna see a dead doom3 guy in a dlc
So you just want to see a random marine dead? Pretty sure 2016 and eternal has plenty of those
You can find keens decapitated skull in a cave in hell, I wanna find Doomguy from doom3 heckin crucified in ancient gods part 2
So a random marine
He has a distinct face shut up
Doom 3 has 3 playable characters and they are all very random marines
Hes not a doom guy just a random marine
And you won’t be able to see his face Since if they add anything it would just be a skull
Soul cube?
you're right, that satisfies me forever
maledict would be cool
The best I can expect is a uac locker with Kelly's name tag on it idk
H m
most of the hate comes from the shotgun, flashlight, and how dark it is
I didn’t like the concept of the flashlight. I know its purpose is to make the player feel vulnerable when they need to use it, but that really halts the pacing of the game which is already pretty slow to begin with (Of course up until the last quarter of the game). Might be an unpopular opinion here but I prefer the BFG edition solely because of the removal of the handheld flashlight.
Although I will say there are some parts of the game where having the attached flashlight kind of ruins the experience. Like, the areas where a light source leads you through dark areas. You can basically ignore that guide in the BFG edition.
I don’t know. While it takes some of the horror aspect away from the game, BFG edition allows for quicker-paced gameplay. I like being able to see what I shoot at.
I prefer the BFG edition because shoulder flashlight and more ammo
Plus lost mission is

Ah I agree
Why you're wrong:
-Already too much ammo in og version
-Lost mission can be modded into og

I said more ammo
Shoulder flashlight
And lost mission
Also modding doesn’t make it the original anymore now does it?
who cares? its an official campaign in the original game.
I will say the BFG edition is a little too generous with ammo at times
It’s kind of ridiculous
og is too stingy on chaingun ammo though
Mhm
