Is doom 3 worth buying?

[half plank]

yes

[little lake]

you could play it free lol

[scenic stratus]

👀👀👀👀

[little lake]

but there won’t be some epik jumping, dashing or switching weapons stuff

it is just, idk, fine?

[scenic stratus]

Yea that's the shit part

[little lake]

Well the story of doom 3 is fine but the gameplay just bruh

[half plank]

🤨

[little lake]

idk how but I got it for free lol

If you're concerned on whether or not you'll even mildly enjoy 3, you can probably still find the demo somewhere.

[dawn dust]

Doom 3 good game

[versed estuary]

Yep. Especially if you know how to play it XD

In which case you can play it fast paced and quick swap

[scenic stratus]

Feels more like a horror game

[honest lynx]

Doom 3 has really fast quick swapping actually. Shotgun machine gun combo is godly

[slim willow]

Yes

[versed estuary]

Every doom is a horror game

[scenic stratus]

Not really

[supple gull]

More like action-horror.

[versed estuary]

There is no “not really”

Every doom is horror genre

[scenic stratus]

Nah

[versed estuary]

Yes it is

[little lake]

I mean, it is just not rlly as epik as Doom 2016 and eternal

[slate gulch]

It's also 12 and 16 years older than they are

[half plank]

[wintry spruce]

I have an issue. I am unable to play Doom 3 BFG edition. the game crashes past the intro sequence to do with the UAC

I am on windows 11 with a 16:10 resolution laptop with the latest nvidia drivers installed

i've been looking on forums and such but i can't seem to fix the problem

[honest lynx]

[honest lynx]

What happened was this game came out before you were even a fetus

[scenic stratus]

Bought BFG edition for myself as christmas gift.
You all can complain now.

[half plank]

Doom 3

[scenic stratus]

I like it too

[half plank]

Good

[scenic stratus]

It still looks good. The textures are the only thing that haven't aged well.
Weren't too high res even back then.

[half plank]

Human models too could need some touching up

[scenic stratus]

Yeh bit blocky. There seem to be some texture and "HD" mods for bfg ed too in moddb, will have to experiment

Iirc one of them even enabled tessellation for models

[scenic stratus]

How long does it take a slow person to beat RoE and the last campaign?

Like sombody who likes to take their time

[versed estuary]

On average they take
3 hours and 1.5 hours respectively

Adjust for being slow and that’s your number

[half plank]

That's not the Doom Hunter.

Not even once

I haven't seen Ernest saved Christmas in 10 years I still know Santa didn't have a robotic leg

Basically what you're saying isn't making very much sense

Not even a little. Doom has always had a demon UAC mix design. A cautionary tale of what happens when technology and religion meet

Merry Christmas y'all 🙂

Has anyone of you completed Doom 3 VR on PS4 and is able to share the savegame?
A friend asked for this as he wants to unlock Nightmare, but i only got to the Delta Labs.

[lime oriole]

There is no doom 3 in ba sing se

[steady heron]

I haven't completed Doom 3 VR because....i ... i played this on the Quest. The Dr. Beef Port is far more enjoyable than the PSVR Version.
I lacks the realtime shados, but everything else in there and performance on the Quest 2 is great(and looks far better than PSVR).

There is also a VR Port on PC, which can be played with any VR Headset(including the Quest).
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1377965478

Maybe you can play this instead.

PSVR works, but it has problems. Tracking is a problem, controller drift can be a problem, the resolution is low and on and on.
Can't wait for PSVR 2, which will have far better tracking and whatnot.

But still. If i could send the PS4 Savegame to my friend, it would be great. Or is there another way to unlock Nightmare right from the start?
I don't think i will play through this on PSVR, so i can't help him out.

No it's a different save.
I don't know if he finished the normal version. I certainly did, but the savegames will not work on PS4 for a different game/version.

I guess he should run through the game on Recruit and finish it and then he can play Nightmare.

Would be even cooler with 2 chainsaws in your hands ^^

No! This is a bare bones VR Mod. It plays like normal Doom 3 just in VR.

That's why i stopped playing the PSVR Version(among the other issues with PSVR itself) and played the Quest Version.

Nope

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bn5AYbK9HbI

And Quest Version:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hGG0hVgbJc

This was the first time he started it. He just wants to start on Nightmare right away. He will be able to handle this ^^
VR is sometimes even easier. You are able to move and aim faster than in the pancake version!

For me it was easier and far superior to gamepad, or mouse and keyboard. also sometimes a bit scarier if you don't run through and take your time ^^

https://youtu.be/jGHT4qVZJXE?list=PLJa64R_z5xkg2wRPEBJgHqQMfr7uaiJyY

This was me playing on Quest. The sound is delayed...as usual for Quest recording...but man..this was so much fun ^^
Bethesda should hire Dr. Beef and his Team to make VR ports.
But then again...Bethesda and Oculus aren't exactly ... friends.

Anyways. Resident Evil 4 VR is on Par with this Doom 3 version. It's also great! Best thing i played this year.

PS: I was also pretty scared at 2:18. I forgot about this ambush. I also think that was the first time that this ambush really worked the way id intended it.

[pastel fjord]

am i the only one who kept going in circles ?

[scenic stratus]

I couldnt play it in vr

I got enough jumpscares playing it on a tv

[wintry spruce]

i;ve tried a bunch of suggestions in forums. the game just simply isn't playable for me

must probably be a windows 11 thing

[swift belfry]

the game sound laggs on my pc

[scenic stratus]

try running compatibility mode for Windows 7 etc

if you haven't. BFG edition works great for me in Windows 10.

but yes likely Win11 "features" at work

[wintry spruce]

i tried compatability mode as well

would be nice if it could be "patched" to work with 11

[scenic stratus]

likely Windows 11 has some change or bug that prevents it. Chances are it will work later once Windows receives a few updates

[fossil owl]

Anyone know if theres a mod restoring the flashlight as a weapon in the bfg edition

I dont mind the other stuff and I love the hud changes but I hate the flashlight change

(And the way the mounted flashlight is implemented fucking sucks anyway)

[hushed abyss]

i believe "DOOM BFA" is what you're after. It's a sourceport for the BFG edition.

Option to switch flashlight (BFG, 2004 Original, BFGMix (Original with Battery)) (requires new game). - https://doomwiki.org/wiki/DOOM_BFA#Doom_3:_BFG_Edition

[honest lynx]

Half life 1 came out after classic doom. Half life copied the teleportation thing. Doom 3 was a soft reboot of classic doom.

[drowsy nebula]

I still play this game

I just love the hell knights

[scenic stratus]

Doom 3 is like my first doom game I played

Ah yes reddit. The place of the truth

[pastel fjord]

opinion from reddit=bad

opinion from anywhere else=good

nice logic

[honest lynx]

I'm glad you're having fun there though. All the best

[pastel fjord]

I've been replaying Doom 3 and it struck me how much the game channels Half-Life 1 in structure and overall gameplay. I didn't pick up on it the first time through, but...

You arrive and walk around the base, taking to friendly NPCs. (Doom: Mars City, HL1: Anomalous Materials).

Everything goes wrong and you backtrack through the mess. (Doom: Mars City, HL1: Unforeseen Consequences).

You make your way to the offices. (Doom: Administration, HL1: Office Complex).

You navigate a maze of tram rails. (Doom: Alpha Labs 4 and Monorail, HL1: On a Rail).

You are given the ability to send a signal to warn others. (Doom: Communications, HL1: On a Rail).

You find yourself in a garbage processing facility. (Doom: Recycling, HL1: Residue Processing).

You reach the laboratory where the secret experiments took place. (Doom: Delta Labs, HL1: Questionable Ethics).

You eventually reach the fabled laboratory you've been headed toward all along. (Doom: Delta Complex, HL1: Lambda Core).

You visit an unknown world. (Doom: Hell, HL1: Xen).

It doesn't really mean anything, I just found it interesting. While its contemporary Half-Life 2 leaned more on physics puzzles and NPC interaction, Doom 3 seemed more focused on channeling the style of the older Half-Life 1, but with then-modern visuals.

And this wound up being one of the reasons a replay of Doom 3 appealed to me. It's an atmospheric shooter with some rather old school design qualities, which distinguishes it from games like BioShock that put emphasis on upgrade trees and other basic RPG elements, or even Half-Life 2 with its use of physics puzzles to dictate pacing.\

[honest lynx]

It definitely has an amazing atmosphere especially in vr. Give it a go if you get a chance

[rich furnace]

If you love doom 3 atmosphere try metro series

He just copy pasted the reddit post. None of what he said are his own opinions.

[slate gulch]

I am the Half Life supreme grandmaster, having played every game in the series including the remake on Hard. Comparisons have never crossed my mind.

[hushed abyss]

writing out your own opinion = bad
copy pasting someone else's opinion = good
nice logic

[honest lynx]

I feel like doom 93 copied doom 64

Wait does this mean if they do a jaws reboot that it would technically be a rip off of the orca movie ?

[slate gulch]

What if they rip off Jaws The Revenge

[honest lynx]

That would make more sense

The doom 3 shotgun is not good since
the spread when fire

[slate gulch]

When you're such a bad shot you somehow miss with it and say you cant hit anything

Kills many a thing in one hit

[half plank]

all the weak enemies die in one hit to it

[honest lynx]

I should just do a full bfg nightmare shotgun only run at this point just to shut people up about it

[half plank]

Do it

[honest lynx]

Nightmare is a blast dude just needs to get good you can easily sprint hit that hidden zombie go through the door and get the 2 zombies on that side for the health

[dreamy mica]

Doom 3 becomes fairly close to a Doom 2 experience if you really abuse the hell out of the sprint and jump, and imo I also like to duck underneath the imp fireballs then blast them in the face, still very different from the classic run and gun but it’s the closest it gets and I like it a lot

Occasionally I’ll go back to the simpler way but I switch it up

[rose field]

that's how shotguns work

[scenic stratus]

It took 2 or 3 shots to kill an enemy

[scenic stratus]

No hate but doom 3 color pallete is grey black and white

[heady shore]

The original intention was to showcase the engine made for Doom 3, slower gameplay so that people could take time to appreciate the technical achievements of Doom 3. But yeah, Half Life 1 definitely rubbed of on almost every shooter until Half Life 2.

Yeah i had a lot of fun with my Doom 3 nightmare playthrough but i hated the natural health degeneration

The health degeneration is kinda annoying, but it forces you to be fast

[brittle notch]

not gonna say that a zombie commando hasn’t made me piss myself a little but still, i see people say that the game is scary when it really isn’t

it’s got a good horror atmosphere but nothing that’ll turn your freshly bleached tighty-whities tan

[rich furnace]

doom 3 isn't scary because of the enemies. scary because of the atmosphere. At delta labs or on the monorail just stand and look around in the dark and listen to the scary noises in the background. and imagine yourself being in that environment that way. It is impossible to experience this feeling in doom 2016 and eternal.

[honest lynx]

VR has its scary moments still even though I know what's coming

[slate gulch]

Why would you pretend to get scared instead of blasting

That's not how you play

[honest lynx]

[scenic stratus]

doom 3 is good doom when when you bunny hopping, change your weapon every 2 seconds, your FOV is set to 120, you run like a quake and you use sprint as a resource and use it when opponents appear
and you don't play like HL

[hushed abyss]

Doom 3 is a good game when you play however you want. It’s literally not that hard.

Although increasing the fov is good. It’s nothing new (at least on pc).

[drowsy dew]

I’ve been replaying doom 3 lately a lot less stressful then doom/doom eternal

[wraith pumice]

would it be weird to say that I like the BFG edition more than the original?

[scenic stratus]

no not at all

[scenic stratus]

doom 3 BFG: casual edition

[versed estuary]

Doom 3 is already casual edition

[scenic stratus]

I understand you exactly, only you don't understand
such a good game is when you have fun with it and you play however you want and I totally agree with you. Only i said how to play doom 3 like classic and that's why i wrote "doom 3 is a good DOOM when"
and you lost a point in my message

[scenic stratus]

I agree with you a bit because the doom 3 itself is quite easy, but for example that you have to juggle the arsenal because you can't shoot a shotgun all the time because its ammunition is not everywhere. That you have to understand how to fight demons in the dark places, and generally play whatever game you want in order not to die because there are not so many first aid kits on the map.
In bfg there are more ammunition, first aid kits and there are better lit levels, hence I called it the casual version because in this version you can keep your finger in your nose and do nothing

[versed estuary]

You can do the Same in the original

It’s hardly any darker

Just don’t use the flashlight in bfg

Spamming just shotgun won’t get you anywhere anyways so obviously use multiple weapons

Field kits meh just don’t get hit

The only ammo I will agree with is for grenades and rpg

Those I do feel get way too much in bfg

But that’s why I just hardly ever use ‘em

[scenic stratus]

in doom 3 the flashlight is separate weapon and i takes it out sometimes in order to shoot the opponent in dark places I have to remember where he is or follow some directions, e.g. zombies have shiny eyes, the flashlight attached to the weapon makes this shallower and does not teach us the mechanics as in the original and adds nothing to the fight so using a flashlight and not using it is just as stupid however sensible it might sound
with that shotgun, so spamming you won't get you anywhere yeah you right, but I mean it was because in the original, when you spammed shotgunthen after that you ran out of ammunition. In bfg, you can spamm it as much as you want and you will still have a lot of ammunition for it

[versed estuary]

Again, you make original doom 3 sound so much harder when it’s not it really is not

By saying bfg is for casuals, you imply original is not for casuals, and only for pros. Which is false as it’s still an incredibly easy game

[scenic stratus]

with this casual it was a bit of a joke mockingly naming on bfg yes doom 3 is not difficult and I said it once, but just more ammunition more first aid kits and better lit levels make it easier and bfg is definitely easier in practice because of it all
it doesn't change doom 3 suddenly being harder, it just gives more of a challenge than bfg

[hushed abyss]

Fair enough. But i scrolled through and i never saw you say "how to play doom 3 like classic"
So If i (or anyone else) reads your message, it looks like you're saying that Doom 3 is only good if you play in this specific way.
Hence why i said what i said.
But alright. 👍

[half plank]

I've beaten the BFG, original PC, and even Xbox flavors of Doom 3. I stand by the opinion that the original 2004 PC release is better, but really, they're all Doom 3, and they're all valid.

[versed estuary]

1% more challenge of 0% difficulty is still hardly more of a challenge

[scenic stratus]

seriously, you always have ammunition for everything and you can beat game it on one weapon
And in the original, you can't do it because for such a plasma ammunition is more difficult to find or the fact that even for the basic weapon, the ammunition runs out very quickly, such as the strange p90 where the ammunition from the marines is ten bullets makes it only 1% more of a challenge?
or that if you use up your ammunition for some more powerful weapon for normal imps, then later in the fight with the revenant or mancubus you will have to fight with p90 do not give much of a challenge?

[half plank]

There's also a shit ton of ammo in the original.

I agree it's a dumb change, but it's not like the original starves you.

[versed estuary]

“Or if you use your ammo of more powerful weapons on normal imps”

That sounds like a trash player

And applies to any game

Why use op stuff on weak enemies?

[half plank]

I regularly have at least 200 shells in the mid to late game

[tranquil onyx]

Is fun to rip and tear

[hushed abyss]

Then play on easier difficulty and play as casually as you want. Use the strongest weapons on the weakest enemies.
If you're going to play on higher difficulties then you'll have to play accordingly.

[versed estuary]

No don’t get me wrong if I have excess I love brutalizing imps and such. But I meant if you only have like 2 shots of something op left

[tranquil onyx]

I play everything on hard as punishment for past sins

[scenic stratus]

I don't know to the larger groups of basic opponents? then you have the choice to smash even those assholes with normal weapons for which you have larger amounts of ammo than for more op weapons
I had a few situations not only in part 3 but also in the classic ones and choosing this stronger weapon always ended poorly and then I learned how to save ammunition in retro shooters
It depends on the player and how much he plays every day and whether he plays the same amount of time in retro shooters as I do

[versed estuary]

Sighhhhh

[hushed abyss]

past sins? You're STILL sinful. Eternal sinner.

[scenic stratus]

cool man, I have 70h in doom 2 and 30h in doom 3 and since then when I met doom a lot has changed
in doom 3 i play on normal or hard depends on what day I have and how i feels

[versed estuary]

That’s not exactly a lot of hours

[scenic stratus]

yeah, i'm beating doom 2 in 3h. The first time i beat doom 2 is 10h so you can calculate how many times I went through it

[tranquil onyx]

This conversation is tedious, let's talk about how to play doom 3 VR on something other than Oculus

[versed estuary]

The psvr

[hushed abyss]

Attach TV on your face = Doom 3 TVR

[tranquil onyx]

Now that's a fuckin answer

[tranquil onyx]

Okay what I MEANT was, I have a valve index

[hushed abyss]

i fully agree. it deserves to be pinned.

[slim willow]

The multiplayer needs more attention

[versed estuary]

17 years too late

[slim willow]

Just like i'm 5 years too late for 2016 multiplayer

[scenic stratus]

Mmmm yes sweet old Doom 3

[supple gull]

Doom 3 turning 18 in August

[fossil owl]

im late to this, but the bfg version with doom bfa can be pretty good

because then you can change to the 2004 flashlight

and bfg does have objective improvements over the original, like proper widescreen hud support

there are other inconsistencies but theres probably a mod for that sorta stuff somewhere

[half plank]

ah hell yeah, bfa rules

[fossil owl]

bfa fully adds back the dynamic lighting of the original right?

also the only things needed are a mod for subtitles (for bfg edition) and that will be the perfect way to play

zero subtitles actively hurt both 2004 and bfge

for 2004 its understandable but for bfge (and i think the 2019 rerelease has none either) its a disgrace

its also bizarre that literally no sourceports have added it and it makes me think the omission of subtitles is fully intentional

[half plank]

yep the 2019 version has no subs either

its literally just the bfg edition but no doom 1 and 2, no multiplayer, and some incredibly minor alterations to some menu aspects

but it is drm free if you buy it on bethesda.net, so theres that i guess

[slim willow]

The 2019 version was half assed

It's just 4K 60 FPS

[versed estuary]

Oh no. Only 4k 60
What a travesty

[slim willow]

That wasn't what i meant

I mean they didn't really fix anything what BFG broke

Would it really have been that hard to add subtitles and skippable cutscenes

[half plank]

can do 120 if you're on pc

[little raven]

120 is dumb imagine not having perfect square frame rate

[slate gulch]

120 actually starts breaking physics and that's why speedrunners use it

[hexed quarry]

Do you recomend this game for the ps4 version?

[zinc anvil]

i played for like 14 minutes and got so confused

[scenic stratus]

Bruh

[hexed quarry]

Why they decided to make a new protagonist?

[versed estuary]

Does it matter

And if it does. Then doom. 3 had 3 new protagonists

[hexed quarry]

???

[half plank]

There are 2 expansions. Each with a different guy

[hexed quarry]

Ooh

[supple gull]

There's Doom3guy, there's ROEguy, and then there's LMguy.

[little raven]

Thats why its called doom 3

[half plank]

yeah

but nobody listens because spread bad lol

[supple gull]

Does Doom 3 have better facial animations than Mass Effect Andromeda?

[dreamy mica]

Doom 3 has the worlds best facial animations obviously just look at the cutscenes and look at something like Doom Eternal or Resident Evil

[half plank]

Betruger is a contender for best fictional character of all time.

[sand copper]

3

[hushed abyss]

Couldn’t agree more.

[urban spire]

I think npc #529 in Gta 5 is better. But to each- you know the line

[scenic stratus]

Anyone thinks it's annoying to select the flashlight alot?

[sharp trail]

Russian voice of the soul cube is the best.

much better conveys power of this artifact than the original

just listen

https://youtu.be/-Jgj_-cl5is?t=15825

[hushed abyss]

Just had a listen. It's pretty good but seems very...cliche'ish.
The English version has a voice almost like a young child. It gives off this weird innocence yet talks about destroying evil. It sounds very outworldy and mystical, this is why i feel it's the best.

[sharp trail]

it's much more suitable than the original, because this epic male voice perfectly conveys the power of soul cube than voice "like a young child"

[hushed abyss]

To each their own. I still prefer the English version

[sharp trail]

Yeah English version is good, but as for me, it does not fit for the soul cube

But yes, to each his own.

[raven snow]

I use the shotgun literally more than any weapon in that game it's my go to gun besides the plasma rifle

[slim willow]

I'd have to hear all of the versions

Spanish versions tend to be the worst

[supple gull]

Anyone else get a sense of motivation when Sgt. Kelly tells you "If you run across any operational sentry bots, use 'em"

[zenith yarrow]

They’re slow af when you try and walk with them and it’s hard especially in veteran difficulty there’s even cases where they’ve blocked my shots 😭😂

[little raven]

[bright falcon]

Doom 3 cutscenes are kinda garbage

Don’t attack me just my opinion

[honest lynx]

You're not wrong. Love doom 3 with all my soul but the cutscenes were never necessary

[bright falcon]

Ok then

[slim willow]

And BFG Edition proceeded to make them unskippable

[dreamy mica]

The archvile () and maledict () are both covered in cheeto dust

[half plank]

literally only thing i cannot forgive bfg edition for.

having to sit through that opening map without being able to spam the escape key

[bright falcon]

:;

[little raven]

The cutscenes are the best and worst thing in this game at the same tiem

[hexed quarry]

Does the chainsaw have limited ammo?

Like in doom 2016?

[versed estuary]

Infinite

[hexed quarry]

Oh thanks

[slim willow]

It's not an instakill though

[wraith pumice]

what is your opinion on the Lost Mission campaign included in the BFG Edition?

[half plank]

i like

[versed estuary]

An amazing nonstop hour of action

Bite sized and perfect for multiple replays

[sharp trail]

Hell +- good

everything else is crap

[hushed abyss]

Lost Mission is the best if youre looking for an action packed experience. Level design is top notch.

[honest lynx]

Best one. Very fast paced on nightmare

[slim willow]

Now that there's a proper Doom 64 skin/set in Eternal, i feel like a Doom 3 one is very much possible

[slim willow]

How does auto-HDR look on Doom 3?

[scenic stratus]

https://youtu.be/IMBBHt_jM7M

[nova silo]

Hey why do you like Doom 3 so?

much

[half plank]

I like the atmosphere. Shotgunning things into gibs is cool. I like the focus on Mars civilization and the really grim depiction of Hell. That level rules. The ragdoll effects are hilarious. Betruger. Collecting pda data is neat, I like some of the email "puzzles." It has really good expansions. There's probably more but this is what I can think of. Highly opinionated of course.

[nova silo]

cool because i don't like it that much but i think the reason is that i went into it expecting that its a "classic" doom game, like fast and packed with action but i get why like it.

[rose field]

no game is for everyone

[nova silo]

that's true

[slim willow]

Love this

[honest lynx]

Doom 3 Vr weekly reminder

[slim willow]

[raven snow]

Lost Mission was stupid it literally had no place or rhyme to it as in it was literally just another map for D3

[honest lynx]

Play it on nightmare run and gun. That's what lost missions was designed for because people complained about doom 3s slow pace.

Lost missions is definitely one of the most fun doom 3 experiences if you just blow through the whole thing none stop action and in a small package. It's one of those things where if you have a craving to play doom 3 and experience it in one day and complete it, lost missions is what you pick

[half plank]

The guy who made the mod to play it in the 2004 version is my hero.

[supple gull]

The Exis Labs give off a 1950s vibe

[slate gulch]

I always forget about the torso in Exis

[dreamy mica]

Doom 3 is one of the most interesting games I’ve ever played, I love it a lot

I remember being very skeptical if I’d like it or not because I knew it’d be very different but I don’t regret getting it at all now, especially bfg edition since I can now play Doom1-2 full screen without having to do the DE ones on the computer where it breaks the immersion

Such a beauty

Oh and LM DLC too, the shoulder mounted flashlight is quite controversial in bfg edition but I don’t mind it

Doom franchise is just truly sacred, each game I just adore to the fullest

It’s unbearable.

Level design is supergood, but stress levels don’t allow me to carry on.

[viral briar]

GameSpy may be long gone, but someone must have been keeping the lights on. If you go planetdoom dot com forward slash Doom3 forward slash index dot html, you can see it's still accessible.

[honest lynx]

Just need to go in there like you're on meth. You'll be fine

[scenic stratus]

on meth
methotrexate? lol

[honest lynx]

Jeez man no hahahah

[raven snow]

The shoulder flashlight was actually quite helpful I hated the fact that you had to swap your weapon out just to use your flashlight so yeah the mounted flashlight was a blessing

[dreamy mica]

Depends on how you view it, I personally agree with you 100% but some also prefer the challenge of that

[raven snow]

True true. Also playing D3 on Nightmare is way to hard for me i find it unfair how your health stays at 20 no matter what but i guess its a good challenge that i might eventually tackle

[honest lynx]

It's best done when you know the game extremely well. The point is to run and gun use the cube to boost health and repeat. Last run I did I finished the game in about 4 hours 50 minutes

[young lance]

damn

i haven't even beatne D3

[raven snow]

You haven't??

I've done beaten it at least 5 times lol

[young lance]

no ive beaten every other doom game except D3

[raven snow]

You should mate

Its a lot of fun

The ending is pretty cool to

[young lance]

ik the ending

[slim willow]

The base game end boss fight with the cyberdemon is too easy

[half plank]

agree

[slate gulch]

Should have made you kill tougher enemies if they were going to keep the soul cube weakness

Maybe Revenants and commandos or since you should definitely have everything fully loaded hell knights and mancubi

[dreamy mica]

This could be taken so out of context

[slim willow]

[late delta]

Personally the main thing I dislike about doom 3 is that sometimes it’s obnoxiously dark even with the flashlight

[hasty sentinel]

guys I need help, I can't run Doom3 bfg edition on my pc.. i keep getting an Open GL error

[raven snow]

Thats the point 🤣

[scenic stratus]

can’t say I like Lost Misson except for hell

[late delta]

Fair

[honest lynx]

Most people go into lost missions playing like they played base campaign. Lost missions was designed for a run and gun 1 30 playthrough. That's where it shines

[slate gulch]

Resurrection of Evil also has you shooting things immediately even if it somewhat eases you into it and quickly starts having more enemies than Doom 3 did for half the game

Also better bosses

[dreamy mica]

One of my favorite things RoE added: Grabber, those damn lost souls are no longer a massive nuisance

Good for saving ammo too

[dreamy mica]

Imo I agree 100%

Bosses are dope in main campaign too, I especially like the Sabaoth fight but RoE bosses just hit different imo

I just love the entire doom 3 bfg edition so much, everything that comes with it in general, there’s not one thing I can list that I hate or dislike about it unless you want to consider some minor glitches, some things I love about bfg edition (or just D3) are:
Physics
Graphics
Levels (cozy)
Mounted flashlight (though I can see why some would dislike it)
More down-to-earth hell style
Imo some of the best hell levels in the franchise
Love betruger as a character
And holy crap I LOVE THE WEAPON DESIGNS for both main campaign and the dlcs

Doom 3 imo has amazing weapon visuals, I love the plasma gun and both shotguns so much, machine gun too

Oh also forgot to mention the weapon sounds, I love the combat shotgun noise

[scenic stratus]

I love the plasma rifle

[scenic stratus]

I love the super shotgun

[honest lynx]

One of the best weapons in all the doom games

[slate gulch]

🫐

the one in 3 its gotta be the sizzling when the plasma hits things, the scorch marks it leaves. And the loud clanking of discarded plasma packs

[honest lynx]

Just perfect

[slim willow]

I still haven't done a Nightmare run in the OG version

Probably not worth it because no achievement

[wraith pumice]

for some reason even though the chaingun in this game is powerful, I rarely use it

I use the plasma rifle most of the time as a rapid-fire weapon

[scenic stratus]

I also love the reload sound effect for d3 plasma rifle

That said I still haven't started (re)play of D3 BFG ed. proper

[uneven seal]

Youtube content potential

[scenic stratus]

was thinking of doing a let's play series but we'll see

[honest lynx]

Nightmare is definitely better on bfg. Just easier to run and gun

[raven snow]

I never used the chaingun it was rare and still is rare for me to use it in any Doom game. Actually thinking of it now i could use them in my Plutonia Nightmare run

[honest lynx]

I'm not a fan of how it sounds and feels in base game. I'm glad they beefed it up in vr

[supple gull]

Doom 3 weapons have awesome designs

[raven snow]

How is Doom 3 on VR? That is one game i have always wanted to play lol

On vr that is

[honest lynx]

It's the definitive experience

[wraith pumice]

finished The Lost Mission a day ago, it was amazing

well-made fights, the hell levels are amazing, decently challenging on nightmare and stuff from ROE is included in it

[signal hill]

@odd helm Dm?

[tardy crest]

Is Resurrection of Evil in DOOM 3 BFG edition?

[fringe marlin]

yep

[hasty sentinel]

There's a chaingun mod that makes it fire faster and looks different, it's actually awsome

[bright falcon]

Sad i cant play doom 3 anymore because my ps4 is broken

[bright falcon]

Nvm

[bright falcon]

Wdym

Just got the turkey killer trophy in roe

[simple umbra]

I'm playing doom 3 for the first time in over 5 years and I've got to say, I'm having a pretty good time so far

[bright falcon]

K

[scenic stratus]

Tbh imma try doom 3 bc it looks like it came from the 2000s era of gaming and doom 1 and 2 get kinda repetitive and i usually get lost pretty easily

[honest lynx]

Which is why you should try out wads in classic which would last you a lifetime and are far from repetitive. If all you do is play base campaign then yeah it'll get repetitive

Doom 3 aged like fine wine

[scenic stratus]

Wuts wads

I mean doom 1 and 2 is kinda repetitive bc i dont have the brain cells to try every wall and floor for a secret and killing them is ok

But 3 seems like its good

Non repetitive and secret probs easier

[thorn snow]

doom 3 isnt fast paced

[scenic stratus]

I d oom 2016 example secret is through avž vent

A

[honest lynx]

It can be. Depends on the player. Nothing stops the player from playing fast which is the good thing about doom three. Nightmare mode increases the speed even more

[honest lynx]

Basically best way to explain it is new maps and levels made by amazing map makers and talented people that spans decades. Basically endless

[scenic stratus]

Oh so like fan made maps@honest lynx

[honest lynx]

Something like that about alot of them do it professionally

https://imgur.com/a/yWI123z

Does DOOM 3 PS4 have gyro aim?

Also known as motion sensor function

[honest lynx]

If you're playing Vr yeah

[scenic stratus]

Didn't John carmack made a vr verison of doom 3 as a prototype?

[crude goblet]

Not VR

Just regular

Because doom 1 and 2 have it

[solar spindle]

Doom 1 and 2 have gyro on ps4?

[crude goblet]

You have options on its use; yaw or roll

is doom3 multiplayer possible via IPv6 ?

[boreal adder]

Was replaying the game on my week off -- has anyone else noticed that just before the last fight, when the marine passes between the cyberdemon's legs and then looks up, he mouths the words "oh f--ck"

This must have been my fifth or sixth time through the game and I never noticed that before

Had me giggling a little :D

[honest lynx]

Hahahah yeah that's a good moment

[slate gulch]

It's about the only time something actually scares him

[little raven]

walking through a cave and looking at the crotch of the cyber is scary

It feels like it tho

Doom 3 cyberdemon felt tiny

[slate gulch]

If you walked right between his legs then his knees are at least six feet off the ground which means his legs are 10 feet or so and he probably approaches 15 to 20 feet

[scenic stratus]

What tiny dude gonna do?

[slate gulch]

Well

The other guy can't actually hurt him, so.. stalemate

[scenic stratus]

Fuck. :(

[honest lynx]

I think ripping off his head might work

[slate gulch]

He doesnt have a soul cube

[scenic stratus]

Yea.

[honest lynx]

I don't think he'd need it in this case since he's physically capable of ripping his head off

[slate gulch]

No the cyberdemon literally could only be hurt by the soul cube

[versed estuary]

To be fair. It’s likely a case of doom 3 guys weapons not being strong enough

[honest lynx]

By you yes

[slate gulch]

You could unleash a fully charged BFG shot and it did NOTHING

[honest lynx]

Exactly

[versed estuary]

Not that cyberdemon is invincible

Baalgar vs Maledict

[versed estuary]

Maledict flies

[slate gulch]

Ha

[honest lynx]

Yeah that's a hard one. Pre uac upgrade maladict hands down

[slate gulch]

And then good chance still Maledict. It had a meteor swarm attack.

[desert vessel]

This is the only explanation

[versed estuary]

After uac upgrade probably a close calll depending which moves get spammed

[desert vessel]

I mean wtf was the combat shotgun in doom 3

[versed estuary]

Good

[slate gulch]

Meteors, walls of fire

[honest lynx]

Yep... and cyber can resurrect

[desert vessel]

Baalgar is op confirmed

[slate gulch]

Actually the Maledict is partially immune to some of the effects of the artifact isn't it? And that was the only thing that actually killed it

[versed estuary]

Not that I’m aware of

[honest lynx]

You only see wing damage

[slate gulch]

I swear it's not affected by at least one of the powers

I cant remember though

[versed estuary]

Nah it’s affected by all

Except sucking its soul

[slate gulch]

That only happened to humans

[versed estuary]

Precisely

[honest lynx]

And betruger exposed his human form

[slate gulch]

Oh wait

Cant its attacks pierce your invincibility?

[honest lynx]

Anyways since betruger was a hell lord it's most likely that the baalgar would be taking orders

[slate gulch]

I'm pretty sure unless my memory has melted to mush the Maledict doesn't care about your invulnerability power

That would mean nothing is immune to them

Lasted longer than the mastermind. Two whole years.

The Doom 3 one is my favorite

Even though as a boss fight he's a joke

[scenic stratus]

2016 was the worst 1

doom 2 was the best

Well it's a different species. Technically any demon inhanced with uac tech can be in the category of cyberdemon. Classic tyrant will always be the og though

You guys don’t need BFG edition for sure

Delta Unknown in RoE — In the BFG Edition, this level does not fluctuate with Hell.

bfg edition to garbage bin

you simply don’t want it

Which is the best doom 3 experience

@scenic stratus

[scenic stratus]

what’s doom 3 vr without flux with hell on that level

if i gt doom 3 should i get classic or bfg edition

or should i get doom 64 again?

[rose field]

people seem to lean toward classic, but bfg has more QoL improvements from what i've heard

and it comes with doom 1 and 2

[glass kettle]

alright, thanks

[sharp trail]

OG Doom 3: 💪

BFG Edition:🤢 🤮

[supple gull]

If you like mods, get classic

[slate gulch]

It also comes with things that are definitely not improvements over the original

[slim willow]

BFG Edition is just better support for modern systems

That's it lol

[wraith pumice]

they removed an entire part of ROE's hell level in the BFG Edition

it's not like it was hard or anything

[scenic stratus]

true

[scenic stratus]

I rather buy an old-fashioned PC with 4:3 display... or better yet — install Wine under Linux.... and run the original game to obtain experience of genuine and untouched Classic

the fact bethesda changed entire atmosphere in game is unforgivable

[sharp trail]

💯

[slim willow]

Good luck

[scenic stratus]

it's not about luck... about torments rather (we talk about genuine experience)
you don't fully understand the purpose of game

[honest lynx]

Bethesda had nothing to do with this game for one.

The bfg vr edition is the best doom 3 experience to date at the moment
The pc vr is good that allows for the original experience but it isn't as near as refined unfortunately

[slim willow]

Gougaru challenge

[honest lynx]

If you say doom 3 bfg bad and then forget the vr game that's thee best way to experience doom 3 I'll definitely be here to call out the bs

[lunar swift]

Get the classic edition

It’s better and you can play it in vr if you own a quest 2

[honest lynx]

Yeah but the vr is a fan project. Not as refined as the official vr release. Official release has superior UI , sound, movement , graphics overhaul , haptic feedback and aim controller and overall better quality of life improvements. Unfortunately

Especially can't overstate the aim controller. You can basically play doom 3 but move around like John wick.

[honest lynx]

So if you can get the official vr version since it's the best way to experience doom 3. If you can't then grab the OG version

[cobalt sun]

gougaru challenge failed (do not mention vr for 0.1 picoseconds)

[honest lynx]

Just isn't doable

Pc vr does have a shit ton of mods and customization though. Which is great. Honestly both are good options end of the day

[slim willow]

[half plank]

From what I've seen though, VR isn't exactly BFG though, right?

[honest lynx]

Still have the cut content though which sucks but yeah not the other bs

[wraith pumice]

I feel like some of the changes in the BFG Edition (like more ammo and removed enemies/sections from levels) are made to cater to new/console players

[honest lynx]

Maybe. It was designed to be faster which is why it has a better nightmare mode

I don't think console has to do with anything. Personally I use a controller for everything. The tool you use doesn't matter much if you put in the practice

[half plank]

if the ammo and speed changes stayed exclusive to nightmare

that would be cool

[honest lynx]

Yeah other than that don't really see a reason to play bfg if you have other options

[scenic stratus]

Why can't we have the super shotgun from the main campaign?

[versed estuary]

Because it’s not from the main campaign

[scenic stratus]

Fuck

[desert vessel]

The hardest part of doom 3 is turning it off cause its so fun

[devout pier]

Well you CAN put it as a mod on the BFG Edition (just by editing the .map files)

[gentle agate]

Yo should I play doom 3 or doom 3 bfg edition

[gentle agate]

I like the horror but im impatient

[clear yew]

Probs BFG imo

[gentle agate]

Theres people who say how the bfg division is a downgrade and the original is better so im still not sure which one to play

Yeah thats what I like about bfg division

Alright thx

[wraith pumice]

BFG Edition plays more like traditional Doom games and I like that

it also has a 120 fps option while the original doesn't

[gentle agate]

Ya nvm im gonna just play doom 3 regular

How do I put anti aliasing to max through doom 3 config

Cuz I cant put it through regular settings

[ember shuttle]

im sorry guys😅

is it possible to use og Doom 3 mods in the BFG Edition?

[slate gulch]

no.

[night kettle]

nah

[rose field]

no

[honest lynx]

[wraith pumice]

why I get frequent fps drops in the original version despite that I have a good pc?

my pc has a rx 580, r5 1600 af and a b450m

[tawny tartan]

Funny story

I got a friend that doesn‘t play any shooters or horror games

And we made a trade where I have to play one of their game and they got to play one of my games

and I chose doom 3

And I have to play sonic now

best trade ever

[honest lynx]

Yes

[somber trout]

troll

[honest lynx]

Good luck getting it back from your friend if he has good taste

[wraith pumice]

how do you know that?

[scenic stratus]

hey all, i think VR is the ugliest thing in doom 3. it doesn’t fit the game at all and spoils gameplay.

to be honest

[sharp trail]

CPU...

[sharp trail]

nah

bfg edition is ugliest thing in doom 3

[versed estuary]

[slim willow]

You have angered @honest lynx

[devout pier]

Well, in some extend. BFG still uses most of the file formats og was using. So aside of some things like .dlls or fullscreen GUIs, the only thing that stops you is to export all the files from an og mod's .pk4 files and use them on BFG. Not to mention also BFG Source ports like BFA, RBDOOM which might include some more support for some og file formats (ex BFA supports og's audio file format)

[wraith pumice]

the BFA source port allows converting og Doom 3 mods iirc

[devout pier]

Yes, it also has support for .dll files but they must be rebuild using BFA's code

[wraith pumice]

one Doom 3 mod I would like using in BFG is the ungibbable mod

[devout pier]

I think that's what you want https://www.moddb.com/mods/doom-3-bfg-hi-def/addons/ungibbable-mod-for-doom-3-bfg-hi-def

[rustic sky]

Is doom 3 of better then the BFG edition

[honest lynx]

Hahaha yeah the dude is either blind or trolling. I play alot of vr and even for a old game it's like the top 3 vr experiences I've ever had even if I wasn't a doom 3 fan. So I wouldn't worry about that opinion

[scenic stratus]

i've actually really tried VR the other day

i'm sharing my honest opinion

costs me a lot of overexertion to aim at targets

maybe if i try PSVR one day - i'll change opinion

maybe

[honest lynx]

You need the aim controller

That's half the experience

It's not playable or fun without it

[honest lynx]

Yeah I mean psvr

You can basically move around doom 3 like John wick

Psvr is definitely optimized

[scenic stratus]

quest 2 — 1832 x 1920 pixels per eye

PSVR — 960 × 1080

[honest lynx]

You're also forgetting it's upgraded ui. Haptic feedback. Superior vr movement. Sound upgrade move control movement and the speed increase through bfg edition

And you're talking to someone that's been playing this game since 2004 so I played the original through 3 pcs. The vr edition is the definitive doom 3 experience

If you don't feel that way that's just on you

Nothing I say is magically going to change your mind if you don't like it. I'm coming at this from someone that's put mega ton hours into doom 3

[scenic stratus]

well, I've played OG game since 2004

since 2005 sorry

[honest lynx]

Play psvr when you get a chance and with a aim controller. Trust me.. the movement alone will have you on my side or I'll eat my words and apologize

[chilly wagon]

I beat doom 3 on switch long time ago

[strange valve]

And completely-remodeled weapons in PSVR Edition.

[clever kernel]

are they going to make a slayers club login on doom 3 bfg edition on steam?

[dreamy mica]

Well I don’t know much slayers club related stuff but if it isn’t already out chances are it won’t ever be out considering how old doom 3 is

[slim willow]

You need the 2019 re-release version if you want slayers club support

AKA the worst version

[brave valley]

Wait why is it the worse version (I have never played doom 3)

[honest lynx]

Some people hate the bfg edition because its faster gets rid of the flashlight and has cut content from the original game released

[brave valley]

Oh well since I just don’t like doom 3 that much (not trying to be an ass) like I’ve played a bit of it but such a small amount I’ve pretty much never played it

[half plank]

oh man gotta meet those people

[honest lynx]

You ate those people

[modern otter]

What cut content

[honest lynx]

An entire sewer section that I remember.

[slate gulch]

An arena from RoE and an entire effect from a level in RoE along with all the extra enemies that Veteran and Nightmare in both the base game and RoE had in the original game were cut

[honest lynx]

Honestly doesn't change much

When it comes to nightmare( bfg has a better nightmare though )

[hard laurel]

Which exact parts of the content got excluded?

[hard laurel]

Doom 3 always felt like the black sheep in the franchise. The horror was enjoyable to many fans though

[rustic sky]

Bro should I get the doom 3 og or the BFG Edition

[versed estuary]

If you have access to it get OG and download lost mission mod

[naive flint]

OG

[sharp trail]

Only OG

[scenic stratus]

OG, and OG only

[honest lynx]

Unless you have access to psvr which is the definitive experience

[merry leaf]

Me with bfg edition

[honest lynx]

Good luck running around with a flashlight on nightmare mode

[hushed wyvern]

If only doom eternal had a doom 3 marine costume for doom slayer

[honest lynx]

Doom 3 marine

[wraith pumice]

one of the things I like about the BFG Edition is that loading times take only a second to finish, compared to the original where it takes some seconds to finish loading a level

[scenic stratus]

enjoying Delta Unknown in RoE?

[merry leaf]

I want this badly

[slate gulch]

Dhewm3 Source port

[half plank]

when someone says doom 3 marine instead of doom 3 guy, a year is added to that someone's life

[supple gull]

Speaking of life, Doom 3 turns 18 this August!

[onyx cosmos]

we can soon fuck the doom 3 shotgun

[little raven]

Doom 3 dude 💀

[faint field]

Ah the only other marine(s) you played as

[half plank]

Nope, it's in the manual.

[rose field]

what manual? did you take your meds today, sergeant?

[half plank]

the manual

[wraith pumice]

is it true that the graphics in the BFG Edition are worse than the original?

[rich furnace]

no

[hard laurel]

And graphics quality are a little more upped

[supple gull]

BFG Edition has more ammo, and armor is still useless.

[scenic stratus]

all this enhanced graphics doesn't matter, when it comes to facing the atmosphere of true OG game

[slate gulch]

All I need is Dhewm3 source port now that it has Lost Mission access

BFG not required

[scenic stratus]

Lost Mission has remarkable hell, but that's the extent of it

[slate gulch]

No, it has the most packed monsters and action of the content

[scenic stratus]

and it seems to me, nekravol from eternal has some elements from Lost Mission's hell

[scenic stratus]

i don't quite agree with community that created Lost Mission about the way monsters spawn... here and there... multiple times on same spots — and where is all the charm when you have killing routine just doubled? It's bizzare... It just keeps you from progression and immersing in game's atmosphere.

when in Lost Mission - trigger the console and type

_ map game/le_hell

helps with progression a lot

[slate gulch]

So you dont like... fighting monsters in a Doom game

When one of the main complaints about Base 3 is how long it takes to ramp up the action fully

While RoE and LM do it from the start

[scenic stratus]

i do, but speaking of Lost Mission — monsters quantity is beyond acceptable limits

[slate gulch]

It's pretty acceptable to me, and I played the hell out of Doom 3

[scenic stratus]

RoE is very well balanced though

plus Lost Mission (speaking of labs) - doesn't bring anything new in design

[unreal ferry]

Doom 3 is not Canon sorry fact

[slate gulch]

Game still exists, lo and behold

Seems it doesn't matter

2004

[scenic stratus]

I would only consider Lost Mission and BFG Edition in general as an addition to the OG game (again, when at least we have a grasp of OG's atmosphere)

but starting from BFG seems so wrong history-wise

[slate gulch]

Dunno, seems it nailed the action horror to me

BFGs changes were unnecessary though

[scenic stratus]

laughing my --s off

it is fair when you are limited in terms of devices

but this one is still amazing... developers did the right thing

at least they haven't removed anything from it

the fact dimensional flux has been removed from Delta Unknown (RoE) in BFG is unacceptable

[scenic stratus]

hence, why play BFG RoE at all? it's so important

[sharp trail]

Bfg edition has lost the atmosphere of OG game

[scenic stratus]

no longer a horror game

[sharp trail]

Fact

[unreal ferry]

Doom 1 is more horror then doom 3

[scenic stratus]

Delta Unknown, RoE
OG https://youtu.be/SNvvhEWe-l4?t=1417
vs
bfg https://youtu.be/5rhP_3xo3_E?t=1767

and the mist that keeps you from seeing all the monsters plays cruicial role on this level

in BFG i'd rename this level to Delta Noname

[honest lynx]

Pretty scary in vr even when you know the jump scares. Base game not so much

I don't think it's fair to even say vr is bfg because of all the changes at this point anyways

[half plank]

Doom 3 different. Doom 3 scary. Doom 3 not Doom!!!

I know because I played for 10 minutes.

[honest lynx]

First doom game I ever played was doom eternal mommy got it for me

[scenic stratus]

on Wii

[slim willow]

Waaaah Doom 3 so slow i cant dash!!

[scenic stratus]

if you bind noclip to some button on keyboard - you kinda can

[half plank]

good work andy

you played the best one first

[scenic stratus]

Still waiting for mighty doom to be on U.S. mobile stores 🙄

[scenic stratus]

bro

just download google play

[grave smelt]

is it possible to change the menu music in original or bfg but preferrably bfg

but probably not

[honest lynx]

You want to change the greatest menu music of all time ? Sin

[dreamy mica]

Imo I like both versions but I prefer the new one for it’s heavy guitar beat that I adore

[grave smelt]

no its just im playing bfg and want to change the music there but i own both

[slim willow]

Unless they wanna change it to highest quality version from doom eternal

Did that and don't need to hear the compressed version anymore

[devout pier]

You can mod it (on PC) you know

[grave smelt]

yea how did u do it

[slim willow]

Mods

[scenic stratus]

[mellow oxide]

What do you guys think of this list of suggestions:

• https: - //www - .doomworld.com/forum/topic/126439-10-changes-that-could-improve-doom3-bfg-edition/

likely never will happen, but a man can still dream

since there are people that may not trust the link, here is the summary:

To summarize this topic this far:

1. Fixing the F12 locked out of achievements bug.

2. Separate volumes for game volume and players volume.

3. A squared picture with a screenshot when looking at "load games" and in lobby for the selected map during multiplayer games.

4. A prefix "Autosave: " for autosaves and "Quicksave: " for quicksaves in the saves

5. A game option for dead bodies of enemies (incloding monsters) to remain on the ground (as shown in the mod above, it can be done).

6. Peer-to-Peer connection instead of dedicated servers (so the game can remain alive even after the servers are shut down)

7. ELO-based ranking system in the "leaderboards" instead of score with V/L and KDA. (ELO would be more fun and more accurate, you won't "level up" there just by grinding but by actually getting better, so it's a nice check for your improvement in multiplayer. In the leaderboards you will have your ELO followed by Win-Lose, followed by KDA)

8. For casual multiplayer games, instead of "Create Private Match" and "Play with Friends" one should have "Create Casual Match" and "Join Casual Match" while "Quick Game" and "Find Game" would remain for ranked games

9. Cooperative Campaign (I previously argued for 2 players to keep the horror element, but I think 4 players could be allright as well, after all it's giving the player more choices and option, you can choose whether you want to play in 2 or 4 players)

10. Horde Mode (Similary, this can be boosted up to 8 players just like the multiplayer. Each extra player would increase the number and qualitiy of enemies in each wave. If there's no hotjoin for Horde Mode, this can make the Horde mode even competitve and have a set dificulty depending on the starting number of players)

11. Add Plutonia Experiment and TNT Evolution for Doom2's campaigns. (so we can have the full experience)

12. Add Doom1 and Doom2 multiplayer as well - Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Cooperative (like ZDaemon, so we can have the full experience while still being user-friendly)

13. A select chapter option in campaign/co-op where you can select what chapter you want to play after you reached that level (I argued that there should be a 4th type of save - "Level: " - for each start of a new level, but rather than make a save for each new unlocked level, it's much smoother and user-friendly to simply add a "Select Chapter" option)

14. A main menu option for users to add or switch mods (With mods you can make everything out of a game and it's what kept many games alive. If I remember correctly, the old Doom3 had an in-game option for mods, where you can select either Vanilla or any installed mod)

15. With all these things considered, the main menu would look like this: Campaign, Cooperative, Horde Mode, Multiplayer, Mods, Settings, Credit, Quit. (Giving lots of tools to the player where they can experience everything Doom3 is about)

Optional/Personal Preference:

16. Gave both shotguns less pallets but also less spread, so their shooting would be more consistent.
17. Treat the final bosses like they were treated in the Xbox co-op version. Instead of just running around an killing demons to charge your artifact, you actually have to fight and kill the bosses. It's was a lot more engaging, a lot more fun in my opinion. It can even have a huge health bar.
18. In co-op mode only player 1 aka. the host aka. the protagonist would have/get the Soul Cube/Heart of Hell artifacts. This is to avoid spamming with it and keeping the co-op mod a bit realistic. Player 1 would be the protagonist while players 2-4 would be part of his squad.

• In Doom3's original campaign -> All 2-4 leave the plane when they reach Mars and the whole squad is called to Sergeant Kelly.
• In Doom3's Ressurection of Evil -> Up to 2-4 members of the protagonist's squad survive the intial blast of the Heart of Hell.
• In Doom3's The Lost Mission -> More than 1 Bravo Squad member survives the attack.
  Since in-game characters usually call the protagonist "Marine" I don't think extra audio recordings are needed. Not to mention, since Player 1 is the leader of the squad, each in-game character (such as Sergeant Kelly) gives orders to the leader of the squad while the rest just follow orders.

[swift dune]

I thought doom 3 was doom eternal

[unborn rover]

[naive flint]

Its doom 5

[devout pier]

Let's see what I got with BFA:

1. Dunno never encounter it
2. Tried that didn't seem to work
3. If you are colour blind understandable, otherwise is unnecessary
4. Use mods instead
5. Haven't looked that TBH
6. Already Done
7. Already Done (don't know if it's working any more though)
8. That's why I made a separate launcher
9. Mod it
10. Mod it?

[elder jolt]

say I if you think Doom3 is more of a horror game more than a badass demon killing game

[honest lynx]

Nightmare reflexes https://imgur.com/a/GopxIRY

It's only horror for the demons

[elder jolt]

yeah

[latent goblet]

dum

[slim willow]

Omfg Gougaru not using VR gameplay!!!

[honest lynx]

I would but it looks like fish lense

It’s a believe-it-or-not stuff.

[dreamy mica]

I always love the idea of coop campaigns so I can definitely say yes to that one, portal 2 coop really got me into loving coop

[slim willow]

Looks like it

[unborn rover]

@slim willow sus

[scenic stratus]

Game name?

İ saw that man in doom 3

[viral briar]

It’s right in the title. Doom 3: Hard Corps.

[swift dune]

Huh

[scenic stratus]

Bro i met walter white in doom 3 or smthn

At the start of the game

[honest lynx]

Should have shot him. Mercy killing

[dull cairn]

Wait what's going on

Did I say something wrong, I was just joking

[wild solar]

lol bad

[dull cairn]

well my bad, my apologies

[wild solar]

maybe just play more doom 3??? or get a job !

[honest lynx]

Probably both

[scenic stratus]

or play some job simulator, then get doom 3

[scenic stratus]

eats popcorn

[viral briar]

Looks like the Doom Marine even got the Spidey Sense.

[honest lynx]

Out of all of demons those ones are on my hate list

[slate gulch]

Duck and chainsaw

[honest lynx]

Don't find that fun

[slate gulch]

Neither do the commandos

[half plank]

it is fun

you get to saw their balls off. 11/10

[honest lynx]

Prefer making them fly 10 feet in the air so they slam into a wall while vaporizing

[hard laurel]

Mfw i just wake up to find a hellknight shredding an imp beside my bed

[round fulcrum]

horror game

[slim willow]

Upscaled Betruger

[honest lynx]

Also the best in depth lore representation and all around vibe of the UAC in any doom game

[slate gulch]

Legit horrified to learn that the Mars base was wandering around in Hell and researching demons and decided to give up on teleporting for just researching the Martian ruins

[strong wasp]

hello

i have a question

it is possible to open doom 3 [ not bfg edition ] in 4k resolution?

[dreamy mica]

I didn’t even know you could dodge them I guess that’ll be useful info

I just thought you had to kill them quickly or inevitably get hit but guess not

[slim willow]

I don't think so, you can only do that in BFG only

OG was max 1080p and 60 fps

[wraith pumice]

unlike other zombies, the commando zombies' bodies burn away when they die like demons

that seems to imply that they are humans turned into demons, wow

[slate gulch]

Like their intro cutscene where Betruger zaps a guard and starts shouting at him in a dead language until they turn into a commando

[digital smelt]

what is the difference between Doom 3 and Doom 3 BFG edition?

[slate gulch]

Doom 3 is better

Get the Dhewm3 source port

[honest lynx]

Unless you're planning to play nightmare

[slate gulch]

Or have it run well on PC because the PC BFG is an earlier version that seems to hate mine even with source ports

But you need actual Vanilla Doom 3 to play Phobos for now

Dhewm3 does have support for the Lost Mission mod and Classic Doom 3

[frigid mortar]

is there a flashlight mod for dhewm3?

or is it possible to make DoomBFA fullscreen work on a lower res than my native? like i have a 4K monitor but i want to play in 2K fullscreen. selecting 2K res makes it lose the fullscreen

[mild bear]

Duct tape mod.

Literally the mod that came attached to BFG Edition.

Possibly one of the first, if not the first, mod ever made for D3.

[frigid mortar]

the dhewm3 page says only a few mods are supported by it. is that not true?
