Re: Doom III - summer 2004!

Phew! Just completed it on "Veteren", my verdict:

Awesome graphics engine, awesome sound and an atmosphere dripping with tension. Best game ever, but then I am a massive Doom fan

My only gripe is, where is this guy (Baron of Hell)?



And why did they take out the brilliant mechanical leg noises the Pinky demon made in the Alpha leak?

Oh well, can't wait to replay it when I get an X800 XT

Re: Doom III - summer 2004!

PLayed the game and I have to say I'm not fussed on it, yes it has some atmosphere, but i find it runs extrmely poor on my setup (xp2400 512Mbram and GFFX5200) They appear to have made a game that looks good yet the majority of systems cant run it in all its glory. Talk about a niche market.

I dont think this offers anything other FPS shooters dont, look beyond the gfx and theres little else there. Sound? well it sounds like a FPS, though I admit I like the "chink" of the pistols as it fires.

While the game does score high i'd give it 7.5/10 purely because I'm not as impressed as I thought I should have been.

Some Doom3 News...

...From Quakecon

Quote:
  • DOOM3 demo is at least a couple of weeks away.
  • DOOM3 patch is of course in the works addressing a couple of minor multiplayer bugs.
  • DOOM3 expansion pack in the works by a separate developer.
  • DOOM3 sales for the first week are possibly the highest ever for a PC game, Activision is investigating to be sure

Re: Doom III - summer 2004!

Highly recommended, the Trent Reznor sound pack:

Now the commandos sound quite a bit more nasty!

Yeah, I got that installed and it's awesome. I just knew someone would rip the sounds from the leaked Alpha. Now all wee need is the pistol and machinegun model conversion

Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails?


Didn't know he'd done any sounds, but I'm gonna download them anyway.

Yup, he worked on audio that featured in the E3 demo from 2002. These sounds are ripped straight from that leak and are far superior to the final audio in Doom 3 (weapons & monsters). Apparently, Reznor decided that time, money, and bad management ruined it for him and he dropped out.

Doom 3 Theme Song...

That just reminded me, if anyone wants to download the title track from Doom 3, it's available Here

Good song, written and performed by Chris Vrenna & Clint Walsh.

Re: Doom III - summer 2004!

Got my copy from Amazon today.
I have to say, the manual's a bit short of material...probably their intention though - leave it up to us to find the weapons & monsters in game etc.
