The New DOOM Thread (2016)

Knee-Deep in Skill Gap Compression

 

[Excidium II]

It's so SLOOOOOOOW

 

[sexbad?]

Best case scenario is that Bad Dragon will probably make some Doom-inspired dildos like they did with Fallout 4, Star Wars, and Jurassic World. I would consort with the enemy and ride a Cyberdemon's dick for sure.

So I'm hearing it doesn't actually play like Halo.

 

[DosBuster]

Yeah, halo plays very differently.

 

[sexbad?]

I've never played a Halo game in multiplayer, but from what I've seen, it's very different and much more open. This is pretty much just the husk of a Quake or Unreal Tournament game without any of the cool shit and with some Halo-looking player models.

That's because Halo is more competently made.

 

[Haba]

Holy shit this is horrible.

 

[Drax]

Here's a highlight from the game so far:

At least they're honest now...

RETRIBUTION!!!

 

[oddech_wymarlych_swiatow]

At least gaem has rocket launcher that is not slow-ass juggernaut with ammo cap of 5 and reloading time 20 sec designed to kill QTE-infected-building-tall bosses but how those poor gamepad players would use it effectively against m+k players is beyond me.

Guys the ID stable has dominated FPS Arena games for well over a decade and they have basically thrown everything that made their games great, right out the window and chose to go down the COD path. Loadouts, Perks, No weapon Spawns, Stupid Xray vision, simplistic jumps, OP monsters you can play as, weapon damage that makes no sense at all. I am shocked that this has happened tbh, I never though ID would stoop this low, I truly think gaming is fucked, I really do.All they had to do was bring in a bit of the Quake weapon magic, make some great maps, port a few of the old classics, maybe a couple of new game modes and there you have it, multiplayer heaven. John Carmack must be face palming right now but happy to be out of ID.

"simplistic jumps"

What?

 

[Lyric Suite]

What i find fascinating about people spontaneously becoming Codexian is how long it took them. Yes, modern gaming is fucked. Welcome to 2005.

Never change bro, never change.

Also, more weird stories when streaming with the bros.

"simplistic jumps"

What?

Probably referring to the lack of rocket jumping and bunnyhopping. Double jumping actually slows you down.

 

[Baron Dupek]

Lmao, there is potato version of Doom4, with p.bored announcer.
Worse than old translations made by rusians and sell on bazaars.


And guess who is making it??
That's right! Cenędza.
KURWA MAĆ AGAIN

Here hair, skin and teeth are all the same color. Yuck!

Eh, this guy is much older than the average Codexer and has been railing on games for around that long -- perhaps not on YouTube but elsewhere.

The guy is still buying the game for the single player. And in his Fallout 4 review he mentions he loved Fallout 3. I guess he can spot the decline in competitive shooters because that used to be his thing but nothing else?

 

[Morgoth]

Whatever dude. I like WAB because he gets the point across while being entertaining.

He has pretty erratic tastes to be sure. He buys the games because he's a semi-professional streamer. So buying games, even shitty ones, falls under business expenditures.

 

[Caim]

How's the soundtrack, by the way? Is it any good or is it not even DOOM music?

 

[Excidium II]

It's in the gameplay vids.

 

[Great Deceiver]

How could people expect anything different, really? Wait, do people actually think id software as it was 17 years ago still exists? How quaint.

I like Mac and I watch WAB frequently, but sounding outraged because you 'expected' something different just shows how forced that is, for someone who's been around as long as he has. Shouldn't expect anything, because everyone worth a shit at that company has long since fled, it's nothing but a corporate husk now. What sells? Call of Duty. Better come up with some perks, loadouts and shit like that, that's what kids relate to. Not getting owned 100 times in a row without getting a single frag because you're mechanically inept and don't know the level and/or how to actually play the game.

There were a lot less people playing video games 20 years ago, and they were a lot less entitled. There was a whole lot less of awesome button action going on. Welcome to the new shit.
