Would be nice for more information. But until then I'd just treat it as it's own thing.
I mean it's fine if Doom 3 is canon it doesn't change anything since again it is its own universe and stuff
Id like Doom 3 to be canonical
joe mama lmao
My theory? They can make a soft reboot sequel to doom 3 that takes place on Earth during the invasion that retcons most of doom 3s dates but keeps the majority of it still tru
And the hell on earth would take place during 2016/eternals time
If they made like a 3 hour game of that I'd be happy
But 4 hours nah fuck that
Wat
when u fire the gun the muzzle flash is a 2d decal facing the player aka billboard ui and even when u r not firing its still there and the mod is picking it up and adding it to the ambient occlusion calculation. unless u know how to fix the code in the mod u cant really do a lot. u can also turn off the ambient occlusion
also didn't found info about this anywhere im just a game developer and i work with lighting usually
Greetings people.
I'm here because I have a strange ladder bug.
When I start climbing it, gets to the point where I get stuck and can't go any higher.
This isn’t half life vr channel go away
Let's put this speech aside.
Have you ever had this problem?
No because I don’t play half life
Yes, I tried to load the previous save and I also restarted the game, but nothing has changed.
Which stairs is it?
The site 3 I think...
Where you must go down from this ladder, then click something on the panel and then re-use this ladder to go up.
Are you sure this isn't communications?
I have also searched this problem on Internet, some people uses the grenades and the rocket, others says to use the NoClip.
Yes?
It's not the communication.
Is there a large window where the switch is with a veiw of Mars?
Yes, that one.
You apparently don’t play doom 3 either 
Yeah that's the near communications ladder. And when you go up to get to the hallway it's bugged ?
Yes. I get stuck when I have almost reached the floor.
Try going all the way up as far as you can. Save and reload. Other than that you may need to start a new game
Yeah I gotta finish doom 64 first
And plutonia
No sense in rushing it
I gotta finish plut too
I'll try the first option. And I hope it works...
May Saint betruger be with you
amen
Imagine if the Marines from the Earth fleet had orders to kill all witnesses
Not being there long enough to feel the effects of hell helped
I had purchased doom 3 BFG edition on the switch and Im wondering: is resurrection of evil in this Port to? And does it support doom 1 and 2
Yes I purchased those a day ago
I love the add-ons tho
just lower the difficulty


Do anyone know the file name of the sound when a monster teleports in Doom 3? (the one that has a whispering chant)
Not sure

I need two players for the multiplayer achievement.
I got all the stuff of what you get if you log in from your Bethesda account but Doom 3 is the last one i need
Hello
But sadly since i have it on Steam, it doesn't seem to work
Can anyone help me with that?
what error do you receive
you have to get doom 3 bfg on the bethesda store
steam doesnt count
stupid i know
Shit
Also not the BFG edition
You need to get the doom 3 rerelease version from Bethesda store
omg i didnt know they were selling both
4 versions available and only one is the right one 😠
IKR?
how hard is it to update bfg edition?
bright fucking game edition
Because my o my why o why would you play doom Three Bee Eff Jee
Bad Fr*cking Game Edition
The BFG edition player playing along with the circle jerk as he desperately tries to avoid being called out for playing it
me or him cuz i recently bought the original
Play whatever you want. We just want to make funnies.
WHAT
what
what
You fool you’ve exposed yourself
BFG Edition isn't awful. Sure I wouldn't let it near kids, but it isn't all bad.



i got it for free
i didnt because i have to be a contrarian
I wouldnt have nitro otherwise. 10 dollars a month for funni emotes is not worth my cash
f'real
Vr superior
Can you shoot around a corner with one handed ssg on anything other than vr?
We are fighting for the wrong cause. Instead we should unify and agree the browser version is the pinnacle of Doom 3 experiences.
No no I stand corrected. This is the peak Doom 3.

Ever wondered if Doom 3 will run on Windows 98 with a 12MB 3dfx Voodoo 2 graphics card? No? Well too bad, we're doing this anyway.

This is the truth
Betruger bless us
All Doom 3 is good Doom 3. This war is meaningless.
Bill Tyson's training didn't prepare the Marines for demons
It looks like if you played Highway 17 from half-life 2 with a clean install
What with it having literally zero lighting or shaders
BFG downgrades the game I agree. WAY too much ammo and too bright
I can agree MAYBE with the light on armor, but otherwise..
Everyone hates bfg edition so it seems like i cant play doom 3 (considering i play on ps4 and they only have that version)
They do hate on it but the new vr edition is bfg and it's the definitive way to experience doom 3. So the argument kinda shits the bed
I don’t have PSVR 
BFG edition is still doom 3, ignore the haters
@versed estuary .... Yes but the game is way too easy. I don't ever remember having so much ammo. I had to conserve and save some of the best ewuipment for the stronger stuff. I never was in fear of my life because the health was so plentiful. I died more from environmental hazards then monsters. The only hard part was the hell sections due to the limited equipment.
True but that's why I play nightmare. Bfg has a far superior nightmare mode
The game was never difficult in the first place
I still say It was harder.
I believe it's hard as... 😎 Hell.
Harder sure, but it’s still hardly a hard game
I need two players. Please.
Is there a way to disable the health drain on nightmare in the bfg edition? I beat the game and the expansions on veteran, and I would like to try it on a harder difficulty, but I don't want the health drain. Somewhat because it's cheap, and somewhat because in the expansions, you can't use the soulcube for health, since you don't have it. I'd prefer if the solution wasn't a mod.
So whatever you learned from doom 3 base game. Move slow horror.. throw that away. Nightmare is a different game. You need to push every room. Move fast use soul cube to gain health at key moments and repeat. The average Nightmare playthrough should be 5 hours as a reference of the speed you need to play
As for roe. You have a full heart of hell after the first boss
So you're talking slow mo and invincible power right away
You need to know doom 3 and when to use these things.
@honest lynx @versed estuary
Sorry for the ping, but you are the only ones I see you often here.
Would you like to help me with this achievement?
what platform are you on
PC.
I'd play with you but my internet is fucking garbage. I'm downloading DOOM Eternal already and Steam says that it will take 7 fucking days
Bruh. And we need the second player.
It's for that double kill with the bazooka.
Don't worry about the ping. But I only have og doom 3 on pc
Og?
Yeah, different from the BFG Edition
It's the original port. OG = Original
I have OG DOOM 3 as well
And does that mean you can't help me?
Well, uh...
I only have on switch
Yeah it’s worse than normal doom 3 but why the hell can’t you play it? Cause other people think it’s bad? That’s a terrible attitude to have
I know a doom 3 og vr port
Made by team beef same guys who made questzdoom
And quakequest
Personally I’d even argue BFG would be much better enjoyed by new comers to the series
Since it goes more towards the faster hella ammo gameplay of modern doom
You mean the ones who complain about no meathook and dash in doom 2016 
Aim controller
Ok you got me there

i just found out i have both doom 3 and the bfg edition
confused stonks
DOOM Eternal VOODOO patch when?
Someone made an Eternal Voodoo patch already, and the patch is dubbed “Slayer’s Testaments”
lol
that's Quake tho
Yes, and it can run on a Voodoo (of course it was made around that era) so yeah!

Yeah I went at a fairly sprinty pace in the past. This doesn't really answer the question but if you're right, at least it won't be as painful as it seems.
I'm definitely right
I really wish the DEVs update DOOM 3 or DOOM 3 BFG on steam that we can connent to bethesda Slayers club ! like DOOM and DOOM II
So please DEVS update it ❤️
Well if the devs updated them it would totally ruin the nostalgia.
The patch to the BFG edition would most likely only add bethesda.net connectivity
right
i dont want the devs ruining Betruger when he's already perfect ❤️
finally bought the BFG edition during this sale and just
i don't know why people say they like the shotgun
It’s only like 8 dollars, I picked up BFG edition too
It isn't bad but not the best Doom shotgun either
yes
It isnt bad as a shotgun but it is definitely bad compared to the rest of Doom shotguns
yeah that's what i was seeing
like sometimes it couldn't even one shot a standard zombie
and other times it just demolished things in one hit
Is it explained anywhere how demons can breath in Mars' atmosphere?
if demons are dead, how do you kill them
Hell 2
They were born from the pits of hell. They aren't dead. Just highly adapted to harsh environments
Yeah they are not dead =/ they are hell spawn, not zombies
If they were dead bullets wouldn't do much now would they
An interesting discovery on Doom 3's sound files. Watch till end. #Doom #Doom3 @YourDailyDOOM https://t.co/NT2iMR4zim
(this is a video)
Can anyone else help me in this bfg edition?
just bought DOOM 3 on Xbox One
There’s a zombie that farts in the game 
That’s why those files are there
He’s the fat one in the prison area that holds other zombies in separate rooms
wut
Lmao
Oh, the cherubs? they're morbidly beautiful
Yes, they're definitely cute
I have the opposite opinion.
Whenever I see those things, the first thing I do is run away from them and then shoot them with everything I have, mostly with the bazooka.
And then shoot their corpses for many problems they have created.
I was kidding. They're more disgusting than scary tbh
baby demon
Y’know
I like the demon designs and aesthetic of hell in this game
Feels like a good mix of classic doom and silent hill
I agree its too slow
I'm new here. %90 of what I read I don't really understand. I have Doom and Doom 2. At Steam. Is Doom 3 and easy transition?
It's more like a haunted house
And i'd reccomend getting the vanilla version. BFG has way too much health/ammo and is too bright
That is the most horrifying thing I have ever laid eyes on
cherubs are evil
nah there isn't, I played it.
💯
they are baby
They are dababy

why the fuck are there babies in hell?!
what did the babies do?!
Jesus christ they are scary as fuck
It’s all the abortions XD
they were born in non-christian countries
They walk right into the chainsaw
If they live long enough and get older, to they grow into hell knights, or mancubus, or something? Greanted, they should never survive longer than 2 seconds... but if they did!
they would just become bigger babies
so... baby-cubus?
they grow up to become dababies
Im willing to accept this as the answer, as well.

Most likely mancubus since there is a nest of the baby's at the mancubus fight
1 shotting a revenant 1% of the time at point blank doesn't count
You can pretty much do it with the ssg in eternal though, save for taking out the weak points prior, although it's easy enough to not be a complication
Oh yeah another question. Is there a way to make the spread on the shotgun not horrible? I pretty much just want to be able to one shot an imp at up to 6 feet instead of even failing to do so at point blank. It's pretty much a melee weapon, and considering the fire rate, I don't think it'd become suddenly op. Once again it's for the BFG edition, and I would prefer not to use a mod for the game, although if that is the only solution, I'd very much appreciate it.
RoE's super shotgun was perfection
Really is. Straight up elephant gun
If you're still planning on doing nightmare stick to the machine gun
Yeah I did that on every difficulty past normal
At least there's enough ammo for it, usually
Just started Doom 3
Playing on Veteran
While it is very different from the other doom games I've played
I like it
Gives Bioshock vibes
Also the horror elements atleast to me give off a more "jaded" vibe that's hard to describe
Less I am scared and more "Jesus christ man what is even going on"
It different from what most Doom games are like but it fits the universe well imo
Great take.
It's a bit like how Doom was described in the manual. Everyone is dead or possessed and once you step in after the screams and gunshots stop it's too late to turn back because they know you're there
Less "Oh fuck" and more "Well Shit"
Also I would love more side games in the Doom Universe in this style
It would help to elevate the power fantasy in the main games by showing how much more difficult it is for like a regular soldier to kill demons compared to the Doom Slayer ripping them to shreds like nothing
Doom 3 showed that, kinda. Doom3guy came there like he anticipated it would happen though.
I kinda wish we could see most of the Mars Base before the invasion
that would be boring unless it's a story DLC or something
Mario sunshine but you have to clean up the failed bloody experiments around the UAC
I would play this.
Ja
¿Someone recommend doom 3 original Xbox version ?
Thats the non bfg edition one. I'd give it a go if I were you
¿Non Bfg are the ones that doesn’t has the lantern in the body?
Yeah and also less ammo darker no cut content flashlight
the original xbox version actually has a lot of cut content
Ohhhhh what's missing ?
a lot. entire chunks of levels
most of the cut stuff is just fat though. 90% of the best moments are there
Ah. Still. Cut content is cut content
Is there a way or a mod to make doom 3 more challenging its way too easy
Unfortunately you need to beat veteran and then play nightmare. Nightmare is the perfect doom 3 difficulty
Well not vet
Just the game first
Veteran would be a good idea because it's as close as you'll get to Nightmare
Well pc version wins
im sorry but og doom 3 in vr wins
Nah
Aim controller and the superior dedicated ui
Just better in every way
Guess pc has mods though
I prefer smooth controls though
what
The UI is better and the aim controller is superior

Its cute little fan project on pc though
someone made a port for portable vr headsets like the oculus quest
made by team beef, who also made a classic doom vr port
and quake vr port
and half life vr port
and several others
the definitive doom 3 experience?
the REAL definitive doom 3 experience
in virtual reality, with none of the fluff of BFG edition
and ill be playing it in vr after i complete doom 64
Its pretty neat honestly. You should check it out
But the ps4 version is better. It's a full conversion vr experience. I believe nerve worked on it but I'm not 100 percent sure
Plus with the aim controller you're literally holding a gun in doom 3 so
Crouch shots
One hand shots
Around a corner ssg one hand blasts
Really can't beat that
You can literally do gun fu in doom 3 now. That's the dream
you can also hold a gun in the other vr version
with your controller
Yeah I actually looked into it but couldn't find a decent one for a good price. That's a shame
Aim controller is over priced though
But worth it I guess
what difference does the aim controller make vs the normal oculus quest controller
This is pretty cool
what
Only 28 bucks for a oculus quest controller very close to the aim controller
fuck off vega for god sake
Yeah not letting me post it either
i sent you a direct message with the controller i use
is that the one?
Yeah got it bro

Huh?
Get normal doom 3
Or use the BFA source port
Bullshit
i bought it bit ago and had to go get the regular doom 3 seperate for the pk4 files
If you’re playing the GOG version there should be another exe in the base folder. Click on that and it should work
I was playing doom 3 like a hour ago and i got more progress on the pc than xbox lol
what version did you buy on pc?
I got more progress on Xbox when I was younger cuz we had a crappy PC back then.
Interesting how the Xbox version has events that the PC version doesn't have, like Campbell shooting an Imp in Central Processing (or was it an Arch-Vile)
It was an archie
Yeah I really like those
Too bad the Xbox version cut out so much of the levels.
Because it's the only port you can actually shoot the cyber in.
I'd love a mod that adds the new little things into the PC version. That would be the ultimate 3 experience.
What if someone recreated plutonia map11 in doom 3 
ooh
i'd play that
If I knew how to mod doom 3 (or just video games in general) I would probably do it
Yeah but then you'd get commandos chasing you all around the maze
I forgot the doom 3 archviles spawned enemies
i'd vomit
What if someone made Go 2 It in Doom 3
I wouldn't be surprised if the engine inherently cant handle it
I don’t think id tech 4 would handle like 200 enemies on one screen
microsoft store gamepass because im a cheap fuck
Can anyone help me in this Doom 3 BFG Edition?
Whats the problem
I needed two people for the goal of making two kills with a bazooka shoot.
But I just got it.
me experiencing a valid version of the game, even if it doesnt surpass the immersion of vr

I have a question
Is doom 3 on switch the original doom 3, or is it the BFG edition? (I want the original)
Bfg
Dam
playing doom 3 for first time on xbox, yall were right there is way too much ammo
all these demons didnt account for me having a full mag of this awesome chaingun 
Just a shame they don't at least let you play on nightmare right away on bfg
im playing on marine tbh but im also bad at every other doom game and play on normal anyway, and even higher difficulties i think dont give u any less ammo
You should definitely play doom 3 on veteran. It's not overly difficult and the ammo issue you're having will be a tiny less op
im also 3 hrs in tho and im gonna feel like a slog to restart now
im at the comm center revisit
maybe ill wait a bit and come back on vet
most of what kills me in this game are imps hitting explosive barrels and my own grenades bouncing back
this game has like the worst grenades ever
If you use them wrong. Use them right instead and you get instant kills
Once you learn how to bounce and angle them you can end things you know are coming
Playing the Xbox version, I never realized how much more useful the armor is.
is there a mod that puts the extra cutscenes of the og Xbox port into the pc version?
I wish

mood eternal 😔
DOOM 3 is not a bad game.
Change my mind!
No need
i cant, youre objectively correct
iTs nOt A bAd GaMe iTs jUst nOt a DoOm gAmE... trust me I watched a video on someone who said that once and can't form my own opinions by actually playing the game. If I do it'll be for half an hour before my crap attention span kicks in
Ow
Because people wanna sheep mentality it for the most part
Finally someone that gets it
People: it’s not a Doom game
Doom 3:
Has hell
Has demons
Has basically all of the main iconic demons
Bfg
Holding hella weapons
And holding hella ammo
Fast sprint ( in comparison to the game)
Quick gameplay
Shooting crazy
Hell it has quickswapping for the most part,
True
But it does have demons and hell
So it gets a 50% doom rating
You're goddamn right.
Sgt. Kelly is hella impatient
Because the missing scientist has to be found, you're a replacement for someone I think died in an 'accident' and he finds out in the first 5 minutes with you that you're an idiot.
I'm surprised you cant stand around him long enough for an automatic game over where he calls Dark Star back and tells them to take 'this idiot' back where they found him
Hopefully you find your way back to the docks better than you've followed orders so far.
No droid guide for you
- is what the original doom was supposed to be
Eternal Mood 
Doom 3 is an excellent game
can you elaborate on this?
The original doom was supposed to be more scary and like doom 3 but due to technical restrictions it turned into a fast paced shooter
But when they started working on doom 3 those technical restrictions weren’t a problem anymore
I don't think that's entirely true iirc
I have never heard anything about that
Original doom's design was most likely the same but they did not have the means to give it a more cinematic story with characters like 3
But yeah the scary-ness of 3 in a lot of ways is an evolution of what was established in doom 1
Romero was actually the one to say they wanted a scarier vibe but were unable to do so because of technical restrictions
Ah i see
server won't let me change my nickname, so im just gonna fulfill my Betruger quota
i STAN Betruger ❤️
If you change your name to Joe betruger everyone will love you
but why
i STAN Palpatine
agreed
Seeing how he pointed a gun at Ishii despite being told not to hurt him, I can see why.
it improves on Betruger's face model, therefore it is superior to the original
they say doom 3 is the black sheep of doom games, but i say they are wrong
DOOM 3: BFG EDITION is the REAL black sheep
Doom 3 is excellent
Doom 3 where you can carry a flashlight and shoot at the same time is heresy
💪
hold your fire it has bfg edition
BFG Edition isn't a bad game though.
Betruger is awesome
I don't know the light on the gun is tight
With a limited light range
Really solves that issue
Only get light where you point the gun
Didn't know they used the crawling Imp on the Xbox
Oh right Vulgars
Never explained why they have their own summon color
Though they are using an early Archvile model
yep
They might be personal minions of Betruger or the Maledict
so glad that wasnt the archie model
I like the birdman model they also didnt use
I can see why they couldn't do arachnotrons as there are barely any rooms that could even hold one
Still having something shoot plasma back at you probably in a different color would really amp up a fight. They'd dominate any combat setup
Shit design
youre actually fast there
I found it strange why they're the only ones with a green teleport. Looks more heavenly than hellish
Nerve wanted to leave something that would be talked many years after
Imagine Doom 3, but you walk faster and you can dash and double jump...
no
"and meathook and glory kill and" shut up play doom eternal if you want that
Imagine Doom 3, but Betruger doesn't die in RoE
I never actually played the expansion
I will in the coming months. I'm doing the whole series on my dumb stream
I bought Doom 3 plus RoE DLC in the summer sale
I bought doom 3... god like 10 years ago. the Aspyr store for mac, I think
Didn't buy the BFG Edition because I wanted mod support plus the original creepier vibe
If you’re gonna play doom 3 you wanna go all in
It’s not traditional doom fine go all the way with the new vibe
No compromises
Keep that flashlight off, marine!
Well don’t you need to use the flashlight to see sometimes
Me who heavily mods Classic DOOM 
This is doom 3
I mean huh, I also bought the OG version for mod support
It's not just because the OG version is creepier and has less ammo
Yes to creepy, yes to less
Oh I’m just talking about vanilla
Bot fucking despises everyone
I was surprised when I got to know that John Carmack originally intended for Doom 3 to have BFG Editions flashlight
really? I never heard that
I heard him saying it in a video
crazy
meanwhile a lot of enemies have glowing eyes
I think the limited range tunnel style gun light is the perfect inbetween idea. They really nailed it
Another Xbox exclusive scene I forgot about. The ghostly visions of a chainsaw zombie in Delta Labs Sector 4.
Doom 3 is a guilty pleasure of mine.
Why guilty
Play it faster. It's only as fast as the person playing it
Also it's one of the best VR games out right now
Doom 3 is in vr??
Yee
that sounds terrifying
Its pretty fantastic
booooooo playstation only?
it will also be faster once you reach the second half of the game, more weapons and shit to play with
good luck on your journey
I'm finding folks talking about the doom 3 mod for vr... but I'm not finding the actual mod
ah found it
If you have oculus quest
Doom3quest on sidequest
Is that the one you got
I have Index, and there is a mod for it. But it's complicated so I'll do it some other time
It's the best imo
I put it on and I exclaimed out loud
It's also very expensive
Difference between my quest and that is night and day
But that’s the price to pay to get it wireless
Index is not wireless
Oh yeah
The price to pay to get my quest wireless
Oh! You mean that the quality is the price you pay. got it
They got to fit a whole computer in that little box in the front
Yeah
I don't love the quest. Mostly because of facebook. Even if Carmack is involved... no
Lol I had to make a Facebook account for it
Used a fake name
Sometimes I post vr clips there from my quest so I can download them and share them
I stream VR sometimes
Yesterday I recorded all of my downtown gameplay for doom 2 in vr
Gonna edit it into something later
That’s a good idea
My favorite VR game so far is still Alyx but I found this indie puzzle shit called Maskmaker and it was excellent
Most of my VR time has been in phasmophobia but that's mainly because it has co-op play with PC
Valve can afford the financial failure
Oh yeah phasmaphobia is excellent
I’ve tried it once in vr
Pcvr just isn’t very reliable on quest so I’m going to get virtual desktop for that
So I can just stream it from pc to headset
Yes, that's the best way
I'm excited though. I've been streaming all of DOOM and I'm definitely doing Doom 3 in vr, but that's not gonan be for a while. i only stream like once a week and I'm starting Doom 2 next
Gotta be careful not to buy the steam version cause that’s definitely NOT the one I wan
Nice
Doom and quake is like all I play in vr, and I play that pretty consistently
I never noticed the Tick encounter was moved to Delta Labs Level 3 North on Xbox
Good old ticks
Also there's a zombie type unique to the Xbox. He has on grey and moves slightly faster than standard ones with his arms reaching out.
I thought those guys were in the original too.
wow i had no idea there were two variations of the small spider enemy
i was like tf is a tick
what the fuck
I like how the zombies have different models. Why they couldn't do this with 2016 or Eternal is beyond me.
but they did tho
They did have different models in 2016
Not in eternal tho
eternal had 3 different base zombie models guys
and the mecha zombie
(which was a different enemy)
if you have a bunch of variety in the zombies in your game then what you doin man
The Possessed Worker (who has a slower attack) and the Unwilling but that's about it. I mean different appearances in clothing and such.
well possessed soldiers are counted as zombies I assume?
if you count them and the mecha zombie eternal has 7
if you count the cueball, 8
screecher, 9
Possessed worker, unwilling, and possessed security
also doom 3 probably has more because, like, priorities. a lot more small scale engagements than in later games
Yeah
IDK why but that guy who gets tossed out the window and screams like a girl in ROE tickles me
I want Doom 3 Xbox on PC
Its already on PC, it's called DOOM 3
Thanks, I know. The original Xbox port has a lot of differences compared to the original.
i mean...kinda?
its more of a 'meanwhile' type of scenario
so it's not Doomguy/Doom Slayer but rather just some other guy who happens to also be facing off against the legions of Hell on a Phobos moon base
It doesn’t take place in the same universe
It happens in another multiverse, so “yes” but not canon to the slayers timeline
depends who you ask. I consider it a prequel to Doom
I refuse to recognize the multiverse until it I have no other choice
As hugo said?
With Eternal, id basically confirmed that Doom 1, 2, and 64 (and maybe Final Doom) are prequels to 2016 and Eternal, but left it vague enough where you can make your own assumptions about exactly which parts of which Doom games and doom wads happened before 2016. A lot of people will explain Doom 3 as non-canon or an “alternate dimension”, but I think id purposely left the new timeline open and vague enough so that you can interpret what you want to be true.
While you could pretend that Doom 3 takes place first, and Doom 1 and onward is Doomguy discovering the aftermath, there’s actually a lot of connections id seems to have left open for Doom 3.
So this is how I would place the Doom timeline:
Doom Episodes 1-4 (2022)
Sigil (because why not)
Doom 2
TNT Evilution (2023)
Plutonia
Doom 64 + Lost Levels
(20??, short time after Doom 2)
Doom 3 Lost Mission
Doom 3 (2145)
Takes place a long time after Doomguy sealed himself in hell, Doomguy is stuck in the coffin by now, and without Doomguy to terrify the forces of Hell, Doom 3’s plot has an actual chance to happen. The world shattering events of classic doom are over a century old, the UAC has “reformed” and the actions of the UAC have been both forgiven and forgotten by the general public. They have further developed their technology and began experimentation on Mars. The Samuel Hayden and Olivia Pearce stuff is happening in the background. There are already members of the UAC board who are power hungry satanists [Betruger and Olivia Pearce, Betruger was actually more successful than Olivia was] but it is not widespread yet and people are only murmuring about strange happenings in UAC facilities. People are also whistleblowing, trying to warn people that the UAC has gone too far. You are not the same Doomguy, just a survivor.
You might say the “Ancient Martian civilization” lore of Doom 3 contradicts Doom 2016, but if you stretch just a little, it could be said that the discovery of an ancient civilization on Mars was them discovering evidence of the Argenti / Night Sentinel civilization who were, in fact, on Mars and Earth at some point (just like the Doom 3 Martians who left Mars for Earth) and the Soul Cube is Knight Sentinel tech. The interpretation that the Martians traveled to Earth and became the first humans could be a misinterpretation, due to their human-like nature.
Doom 2016 actually seems to borrow a little from Doom 3, with artifacts found by the UAC in Mars’ Argent fracture connecting to the ancient civilization of Argent D’nur, Night Sentinels, and also the Demonic Helix Stone.
Also, I’ll give you this quote from the Doom Wiki: “In the first mission The UAC after the player leaves the elevator, and a climbs a few edges, the inital outside arena appears to show ancient structures resembling those of the Martian structures of Doom 3, even so far to have been excavated and glowing hieroglyphics on the central pillar, whether these are Martian in origin, or Demon is unknown.”)
Doom 3 Resurrection of Evil (2147)
-The events of this DLC and the death of the Betruger Maledict dragon is one of the many reasons Samuel Hayden chooses to trek / investigate Hell, leading to the discovery of Doomguy’s coffin in Doom 2016)
Doom 2016 (2149)
-The events of Doom 3 have reached a boiling point. Olivia Pearce is attempting to pick up where Betruger left off. IMO them specifically choosing to set it just a few years after Doom 3 is evidence that Doom 3, while obviously unrelated, is still loosely canon to the Doom timeline. The technology seen in this game is not too different from the tech seen in Doom 3, vs Doom 1’s abstract UAC tech. The design of hell is somewhat similar also with the castles and floating rocks. Not to mention the Doom 3 Soul Cube in Samuel Hayden’s office, I know it’s just an Easter egg, but again I think id has played it smartly in that you can decide what is canon to you. After Doom 2, just about any Doom wad and Doom game can be canon, it’s left up to interpretation)
Doom Eternal (2163)
-It feels to me like id was purposely trying to make parts of this game’s lore connect to Doom 3, as in this game it’s revealed that the Night Sentinels had an entire city on Mars at one point that caved in over time, leaving only traces of their society behind.
these are NOT my words, reddit user Tom_Pettys_Beard wrote this
@versed estuary
That's completely different from my take lmao
Tnt and plutonia occurred around the same time. But you aren't the slayer in tnt. You're someone known as the marine commander
Doom 1-2-64 are 1 Earth
Doom 3 is another earth
Doom 2016/eternal is another Earth
Currently doom has 3 parallel universes
Then why does Doomguy from Eternal have the suit from 1-2-64
It’s the same slayer
He is the only constant from doom 1-2-64-2016-eternal
Basically doom 1-2- happens
He gets stuck in hell with 64
Since hell is the same for every universe
He Ends up getting sent to the sentinals
Oh so your argument is that there are alternate earths but only the one Hell for the whole multiverse
From there he gains divinity machine etc,
And falls asleep in hell,
From there Hayden takes him out and puts in on Mars, but this is now another universe
I mean it’s not just my argument, Hugo already said it too
He is literally the creative director
Yeah, don't care. If it's not in the game/codex it doesn't count. Hugo can change his mind
._.
Then using your logic, the games still can’t connect anyways
Because the in game content contradicts itself
Especially with timelines
Technology
And events
That is correct, yes
And the only way they would connect,
Since it’s been confirmed it’s the same main character
Would be multiverse
So my argument there is very simple:
Multiverses are dumb, stupid, and I hate them. Would much rather just change the dates on existing Dooms for retconning
Oh I agree on that
I hate multiverse stuff
Seems like a lazy way to connect things
Retcon things
And make up whatever you want
With no reprucussions
Barely works for marvel and they've been doing it for decades
Oh why is it completely differently now?
Next earth
Nah, just time skip like Elder Scrolls or Fallout. It's been a while and humans are doing stupid demon shit again
Rather they just start all new stories without feeling the need to hardcore connect things across it all
Time skip would also have been solid
But if anything works with mutiverses it's stories around hell I guess
I listened to Blood Swamps and it was the best 11 min of my life
So the doomslayer is the same from doom 1,2 final doom and 64
as for doom 3 i think it's truy a whole universe but it's canon since it relates to the whole doom lroe from 1 to eternal
maybe the earth from doom 1 , 2 , 64 is not as same as the one from 3 and eternal
that explains why the earth from eternal i doesn't have any experience to go against demon's attacks
like if the earth from doom 2 was invaded again by demons in eternal they would know how to beat them and their weaknesses
by the way thanks guys
for explaining doom 3
that explains also why the icon of sin from doom eternal is different from the one from doom 2
Since people on Mars desired the plasma rifle, I wonder why they didn't make any Terminator references.
how can i use doom 3 editor if i have doom 3 bfg edition on steam? does anyone know how?
You’ll probably need the real doom 3
In my opinion, Doom 3 is canonical and this is the reason, after Doom Guy stays in Hell after killing the resurrected mother / demon mother, while Doom Guy remains in Hell while he is there, Doom 3 It happens and I have things that ensure that. . then the demons seem mutated since if they did not know before Doom 64 the uac sent radiation to the bases of Mars where the demons were and unfortunately a vile Arch survived and revived the other demons but now they mutated and some survived and reached the bases from the uac
most of that made a little sense
↑
Sounds good. However the time / year needs to be changed
Oh ok Thanks
for your opinion
What version of doom 3 is better, BFG edition or the original game?
The original
“Doom 3: Bright Fucking Game Edition”
alright, $150 steam giftcard it is
yes, I use gift cards instead of a credit/debit card, dont bully me

yeah, my grandpa is gonna give me $300 if I cut my hair
You know yesterday was my birthday and my friends got me 90 dollars in steam wallet money
and imma use that for a $150 steam gift card
What am I gonna do with 90 steam dollars
oh, then happy late birthday!
I already got every doom game for under 50 dollars
Thanks!
do you have doom eternal
Oh yeah
do you have ancient gods pt 1 and/or 2?
64 and doom 3 I got as birthday presents from other friends
That is a purchase I will not be doing for a long while
oh
then uhh buy Super Meat Boy or Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap
those games are pretty cheap and very fun
oh and/or freedom planet, that game is fun too
Lol
We’ll see
I wanna extend it for as long as possible
One thing I want is probably amnesia: the dark descent
again, i have a theory that DOOM 3 is a 'meanwhile' kind of thing, so its going either right after DOOM 64 happened, with the Slayer in Hell, or after he is put into his sarcophagus. Another theory I have is literally the same but the Marine was sent to watch over the Slayer's resting place. It makes sense that he would be in his sarcophagus since there are demons running around because the Slayer isn't there to rip and tear them to shreds.
hmmm ok
No idea, I have not tried it
Even so it's a different UAC so most likely different dimension
or perhaps a different branch of the UAC
like how there's different branches of the military
They are extremely behind technologically from the UAC of 2016. To the point if doom 3 was 2098 as an example it would make sense
Yeah because it most likely takes place after doom 64
Also the pda files say it at least 2145
It can't take place after doom 64 because it's documented in 3 that it's first contact with hell in 3. Even the top secret info says so. Unfortunately doom 3 would have to be another dimension in the multiverse
Would have made a great prequel though
this is my take. change the year and poof! it's a prequel
yea
id doubt even the developers pay as much attention to canon as the fans lol
they probably all just said "okay its the future uhhh year 2XXX"
Original because it was far more atmospheric and I honestly prefer the original flashlight mechanic over the simplified version we got in BFG. Some character models were made arguably worse to. The BFG edition only has one leg up on the original which is the inclusion of 3’s dlc and Doom 1/2.
1 and 2 ports are balls there. Lost Mission can be modded in, and RoE is cheap too. For a dollar less, just buy the superior 1 and 2 unity ports, and the original version of 3.
why are they bad? That's the only version of original doom I've played
Nightmare is made tamer, Wolfenstein levels have been censored, red crosses on medikits have become pills. 35 fps cap, 4:3 only, and the default midi player is mediocre.
Oh and map 2 has a broken secret exit wall that makes you restart the map.
Final point, random sfx pitch.
jesus christ I barely made my way through UV, I had to give up on nightmare
Not absolutely the worst Doom experiences btw. Just a lot to be desired.
None of the rest of that matters to me, it looks close enough and it sounds close enough. and the med kits are absolutely crosses, not pills. I played likie a few days ago lol
You should buy doom 1 and 2
i like eternal's solution of the white cross with the red outline. if they could get that in the classic ports itd be ideal
the green cross is hella ugly
yea
green cross was introduced in an update for the unity port. the bfg edition ports use the pills like the 360 version
the classic music in bfg edition sounds really good, does anyone know what soundfont it's using for the midis? its got a lot of reverb too. ive never heard that music sound the way it does in bfg
Pretty sure it's just Gravis Ultrasound
thanks bro
I hate those pills. Those ugly, ugly pills
why i already bought them when i bought doom 3
Oh ok
doom 3 is bad ngl
I am going to now write a novel on why you are factually incorrect.
He won't read it. He needs to buy more skins for counter strike guns at the moment
oi gtfo
And what’s bad about it?
It's different from the other Dooms. But it's incredible
It's not all that different once you understand it
Eh, the other Dooms aren't focused on lighting and horror. Carmack was thrilled to show off his new lighting tech. The new and old dooms don't have that as a gameplay element
They also don't have jumpscares. Doom 3 is full of dread around every corner in these tight and narrow spaces
It's fundamentally built different, and I see that as its greatest strength
Great it's not my favorite either
don't come to the doom 3 channel to talk shit lmao
If I don't like something I dont invest my time into it any further
so kill them
If you're running away you're playing it wrong
hahahaha that's what the guns are for
^
Imma stream some doom 3 just to shoot some demons that I am not running from
that doom 3 isnt like fps,fast paced like the other doom games
It's BFG, sorry to you purists
This isn’t fast?
Run into them open fire and keep running
Sweaty nightmare https://imgur.com/a/APFPapa
Doom 3's pacing is entirely dependent on you
okay
If you are slow, the game is slow
i have doom 3 and 2016 on steam
And I have every doom on switch
and my axe
beat 2016 last year
If you wanted you could have done that chainsaw only
Come watch in voice 1 IF YOU DARE
Why would I
I love the plasma
Its my baby
how to post pics here
For the hell of it. Archviles stand still long enough for it to kill them and commandos are dead once you duck. Chainsaw dps is insane in 3
theres no + icon
Nightmare reflexes https://imgur.com/a/GopxIRY
In addition to the loud clangs of the canisters I love the subtle sizzling sounds after something is hit
Fuck ya !

whats your favorite demon
Maledict
That wasn't reflexes that was looking into the future
Opened my third eye
I played it enough that sometimes.I remember exactly where an enemy is going to be
the dragon type guy in doom 3
But I cant remember where every single one is so sometimes I still have to think fast
It is tradition that the creepy eyes in Alpha 4 go down and I jump behind the crates at it
Also that one crate room that has a spot you can jump into where maggots cant do anything to you. Crate fort
At this point I've played it enough that I look for spots that seem like a cozy place to hole up, fortify, and wait it all out
This game also made me wish Guns & Nachos was a real magazine
Id sub to that
I'd say the coziest spot is the security station where the door never unlocks from outside and it has to be teleported into but that's in Delta where demonic activity is at unsafe levels
Yes because demonic activity is generally so safe in Doom
Mancubi shoulda been used more in Doom 3
They were kind of minibosses, like the Hell Knights
Doom 3 mostly focused on what we now call fodder demons and I respect that choice
RoE has bruisers in more aggressive mancubi and hell Knight roles
I know that they were part of a cancelled idea where they'd pretend to be a monitor until you got close they had to scrap but only recently have I thought about how that still doesn't make sense as the demons in 3 dont seem to have got their technology from the UAC
The specimen entry on Revenants both says that they already had that battle armor and that they have no idea how it fires the missiles
Hell Knight
I like the tiny spider jawns, they creepy as hell
Is it just me or RoE is actually very long
Just got to the level where you get the BFG (secret?) under the monorails
I think I'm still halfway through
ROE has a shitload of dead marines, which shows you they came back prepared, but they still got easily wrecked
it's very great
might try that lost mission mod sometime later though
Bruiser is a really nice enemy, it's Mancubus but not a Mancubus at the same time, dunno
So I saved that civilian from the Z-Sec in Delta Level 3 South on Xbox, but then an Imp spawned behind me and got him
Doom 3 sent me back like 10 missions to the stupidest part of the game
I was on a terribly confusing mission and then I take a break then go back to being sent back multiple missions.
no, no i dont think i will
Let's not
Fat zombies pack a wallop on high difficulties
Got punched by one and he took 30-33 points of health away
Play 2016 on nightmare, those imps can one-shot you especially in the early game (but still also in the late game)
Anyone played the VR version yet?
I haven’t but I only started Doom 3 last week first time. I think people must have been expecting 2016 at the time of release. But it’s actually a cool horror game in retrospect
Hello Andy
Not yet but all the things I've heard about it are very very good
how did the Xbox one/PS4 port improve on it exactly?
I love Doom 3 even though it has a lot wrong with it in the later levels. I'm just upset that Doom 3 VR isnt on PC and/or that it runs much smoother and better than DOOM VR does.
Also that you dont play as The Slayer in DOOM VR
Yeah, I haven't played it because it's a mod and mods for VR are... janky
I saw that it ran pretty smooth from the videos I've seen
How come they can make that one good but the one we get on PC is janky
Idk
VR has many weaknesses right now. It's a small market that is VERY fragmented by the existence of the Quest
Instead of it being like "VR is VR" it's like consoles now. Myst VR is out for the quest but not PC, for example. And I wanna play Myst god dammit
Well i just checked and it says its coming to PC this fall, so you're in luck
Myst or Doom3?
a lot wrong with it in the later levels
I hope you mean the earlier levels
I didn't know DOOM 3's Plasma Rifle was reused in DOOM
the icon of sin fight only in the perfected mod or in the base game?
Only in the mod
ah
Got a vid of the Xbox-exclusive zombie. I'll make a gif of it later
Doom 3 plasma rifle is pog
Its a beast
true
Doom 3 gun designs are awesome but I can't tell if the MG is an SMG or an assault rifle.
Its a beast of a gun
Grenades are bouncy AF
There isn't a single DOOM game that doesn't make you feel satisfied while bombing enemies with grenades
What about the games without grenades? 
the Melting Appliance
with forcing you to finish Maximum DOOM twice in a single night
According to Steve Hammer, yes
Since the UAC has so much firepower lying around, it's almost like they were anticipating a demonic invasion
oh crap, i forgot to fill my Betruger love quota
uh...
Betruger is hot
there
thank you for coming to my Ted talk
gross
"Making passes, are we?"
Betruger is a fine antagonist
Nobody is hotter than the DOOM 3 Marine for me
Imo he's hotter than the DOOM Marine from the main storyline
gross
the doom 3 protagonist reminds me of elvis and I can’t possibly explain how
understandable
The RoE guy looks like Betruger's son or something by contrast
I wonder how Doom3guy's life will be back on Earth after all he went through
Well after RoE the demons are stopped forever
And the Cyberdemon was the only one that actually remotely scared him
Buy a Super Turbo Turkey Puncher machine and play it for eternity.
He may have recieved a medal for bravery and a very large retirement fund to not sue the UAC
Alternatively Martian Archeology opens back up and this time no demons or marsquakes
Hes Joe betruger
So he was tempted into touching the hellstone but never allied with Hell
This is a gold theory.... he came to see if his dad was alive
Maybe he heard his father in the heart
Making him Son of the Betruger
Always like how you kill Bertruger in ROE after it seems like he got away in the main game
Expansion packs are the proper way to continue a story, unlike Halo's method
I actually always wondered why Betruger let Elizabeth McNeil go but now I think I get it. She was in Delta already and pretty high level, and she came really close to exposing and ruining everything. Not to mention she has direct contact with Swann and if anything had happened to her he wouldn't even have bothered with an investigation, he'd have just shut it down, before Betruger could even start the invasion. On top of that she got sent to Earth which was his last stop anyway
I really hated Betruger, good thing we killed that fucker in the RoE
Betruger ain't dead
Yeah I think itd be more fitting he's now in Hell but as a tortured soul in the deepest pit instead of ruling it
Thats way fitting. Trapped powering the heart
Didnt the artifact blow up?
You cant have left that thing in Hell because that's where they wanted it
Could be that it tried to eat the Maledict and got overloaded
I always assumed it was just absorbed back into hell
That wouldn't have been good because getting it back in Hell in their possession is what they wanted
bruh I thought he died
He died in Hell
Well it was crafted of hell so that's why I was like no way its just destroyed
Yeah he's dead but not actually dead dead
It's not seen when his skull is rolling
good
If it couldn't be destroyed because it was made of Hell you shouldn't have been able to kill the Maledict
Though the soul Cube definitely seems indestructible because they'd have done that
Well its not supposed to be able to be destroyed so that's the weird thing
Oh apparently somewhere along the lines you're returning it Hell because it can be destroyed there
Probably in one of the cutscenes I skip
Ahhhhh that makes sense .. so does that mean the soul cube can be destroyed on Mars?
It might have been destroyed closing the portal
Exactly.. fits then !
The alternative is that the heart absorbed the Maledict and the engineer died and some other demon can pick that up and become a god
And earth gets destroyed by a random vulgar because they almost always appear after someone talks about it
I wonder if Betruger had something to do with not just their creation but bruisers
Their original purpose would make more sense if it was his idea
That TV mouth still weird me out
Couldn't get the fake monitor thing to work and like I said why would a demon even be doing that
It might be a weak spot
Where do cybrids (stinky pinkies, lost souls, etc.) get their cybernetics from?
The uac
And Martan tech id guess
They didnt get it from the UAC
They'd have known and understood revenant battle armor
Thats just the revs
Imps were clearly being experimented with and betruger definitely helped them with tech and understanding humans
They'd have shown us somewhere they were grafting the things onto them
Not if it was a super tiny cult compared to that of 2016
Maybe betruger and only a couple others
They'd have had to be doing it somewhere
I think it was only betruger because there were no other survivors
Here's another idea. How hell was merging with the Mars base.. phasing it to its design it could have easily absorbed and used tech and information for its purposes
Then again Delta was definitely doing some weird shit
Unlike 2016 though they had to hide it because no one was going to let them do that and even then, the Delta crew don't seem to have realized it was Hell
About that civilian on the Xbox version who gets gunned down, I killed the Z-Sec AND the Imp that spawned behind me to kill him, and he died. He's scripted to die if you kill the Imp.
Also when you enter hell for long periods of time hell can look into your mind and influence it. Tech could have been extracted easily
I think the whole thing hinged on Betruger being the only one who knew it was Hell, with everyone else involved in the Delta work being a bit more like half life thinking of 'it's just some weird alien place with aliens in it and there won't be unforeseen consequences'
O I C wut u ded thar
Someone would have blown the whistle before Elizabeth who would have told Swann about that part at least in he's getting creepily obsessed with what is obviously not a good place
Well uac is the definition of trying to see what they can do rather than if they should do it
In 3 it took longer than classic for it to actually go wrong. The possessed machinery and occasional monster attack are isolated and no one knows what's going on with them, and in 3 of course most of the demons dont outright look like demons
Then Swann shows up and Betruger just throws open the gate
It would seem to.be like Event Hprizon. Hell got into and infected the mars base real fast, and demons started being able to be directly teleported almost anywhere
Alot like event ! Especially the corruption of the mind aspect
First thing that happens is that shockwave, but that must have had something to do with Betruger too.
He must have told them it was time
But he didnt have everything perfectly ready because he never expected Swann to show up or the board to have listened and taken the report seriously
And you hear his laughter when the invasion starts.
So he at best half ass hid the soul Cube
He throws you into hell itself where he knows the thing is
I always guessed it didn't go perfect because he have to speed up the timelone because of the visit
if Swann had made it to Delta he would have immediately said 'No. Shut this down right now.'
Also a few at the uac were catching on to it being actual hell
Yep game over for betruger
He'd have seen the specimens, the artifacts, and even without Hell being involved he would at least know there was some kind of black market shit the UAC didnt have time for. They dont care about Hell, they only wanted teleporters
I think Specialist Wilson is the dead Marine with the plasma gun in the EnPro Plant
They didnt catch on even after guys kept coming back going crazy, turning into zombies but first screaming about hell and souls and one guy ranting in Aramaic
They just wanted their product. I wonder what he'll offered betruger though or if it was even the same person or if the maledict possesed him
There was betrugers partner in lost missions with the disc on betrugers real intentions. He wasn't able to send the info on time
Supposedly he had a dream and they made a promise to give him power
Yeah I remember the dream thing but I think after they had his mind he was just pure re written
Might have been in one of the novels as those were written by the author they hired to make the plot Matthew J. Costello
Except the third one never came out
But we know the marines name is John Kane I guess
I really should read the novels but at the same time I don't want to
ROE says Doom3guy is the only survivor but Lost Mission and Resurrection (the mobile game) show there were other survivors
Doom marine
DOOM Multiverse
According to doom wiki doom 3 guys name is the doom marine or doom 3 marine
oh yeah, all main DOOM protagonists are called the DOOM Marine so there might be a little confusion sometimes
Or simply The Marine
the bastard doesnt even wear a helmet
The Combat Engineer does, at the beginning and at the toxic part
I want to read them they sound fuckin crazy
No there’s doomguy that’s his name
well I think the classic one is just Doomguy, but his newer version is all three combined: The DOOM Slayer, Doomguy, and the DOOM Marine
Doom marine is a different character entirely
Doomguy and doom slayer are the same guy but doom marine is completely different
how so?
the title of the DOOM Slayer's codex entry in 2016 is literally "DOOM Marine"
Well
I’m talking about the doom marine character from doom 3
That’s a different person
But doom marine is kind of a general name
Yeah, both are different characters but they bear the same name lol
Makes more sense just to call em doomguy and doom slayer
true
I enjoy him too. 
Haha look at that grin hes happy about who he is.... For now
playing through Doom 3 classic for the first time since the original Xbox version back in the day. Enjoying it a lot better that i did when i played the bfg version.
I want to to try that at sum point
doom 3 when no hell
doom 3 when has hell
Best series B movie
Install helmet mod 
hi
is there someone that can help me to play whit my firends doom 3 co op
we try a few mods and we codnt understand how to play together
Thats because it is better. Unless you're doing bfg nightmare or vr
I wouldn't do that personally. His face is too good looking to be covered by a helmet. His beauty must be seen
also quick reminder dear marines, DOOM 3 will be 17 years old by the 3rd of August
We must celebrate. On that day post your favorite picture of betruger
Time to replay DOOM 3 and take a screenshot of Betruger, saving it for that day
" they ll get their product "
continuing ROE. how long is this fucking DLC, it never ends lmfao
So I got to that part where you choose to use the EFR system or the service bridge
Just remembered why I would usually pick the bridge
