Designing DOOM's single player as a co-op experience is a surefire way for me to never buy Eternal

I just want Hell on Earth, alone

I wouldn't be surprised if the reveal of the Nvidia GTX 1180 coincided with this. Pretty sure Doom was the main game that showed off the power of the 1080 in 2016, they played it at like 200 FPS on stage.

Will definitely buy if it doesn't have co-op. Don't care if it has a separate MP mode again, I ignored it before and I'll do it again. But if it has co-op then I'll likely just rent it if I decide to bother at all.
Ah yes, Doom.

That sacred single player franchise that definitely didn't have IPX co-op out of the gate.

I hope there are less kill rooms/arenas and more labyrinthine levels like the old Dooms.

As much as I get that people get nervous of the idea of co-op somehow breaking doom's design, let us remember that Doom, Doom 2 and Quake all had co-op... and they are the best shooters ever made. Going back and co-oping them or .wads and eps is the best thing.

Seriously. Just give us the option. Players will make it work.

While a meaty gameplay reveal would be nice, I'm really just hoping for some news on the the collector's edition. Bethesda usually puts out some great shit, as FO4 and Wolf 2 were some of the coolest CEs ever for a reasonable price.

Do we have a time for this?

More excited about this than I was for the Smash Direct and the RDR2 gameplay reveal.

Yup. Its not like that Doom is a super duber story game... Just do it the old Halo way. Just have another Doom guy running around. Nobody will care.
Full Campaign Coop has to happen. Would give the game way more replayabilty. At least for me its that way.

These seem to be the times.

More precisely, the gameplay premiere will start at 9am PT, 12pm ET, 5pm BST. You'll be able to watch the stream on Bethesda's Twitch, and YouTube channels. We'll also embed the video player in this story when it's time.

Doom 2016 quickly rocketed to one of my favorite games of all time. I was thinking while I was playing through it for the 6th or 7th time, 'if they make a sequel, I don't know how the hell theure going to be able to top this.' Thats the only thing I'm worries about . . . The first was soooooo good, I'm worried that they're not going to be able to capture that magic again. They set quite a high bar for themselves.

Gameplay the day after RDR2 gameplay - brutal timing and there'd be no way whatsoever of predicting that!

Hope no more 80GB patch downloads. Hated that in Doom 2016. Still hyped by the way.

Hope Bethesda and Zenimax market the shit out of this game, after the abysmal marketing of Wolf2 and Prey, I need more SP games these days.

Looking forward to seeing what Eternal is. The suggests it's going to be supported for a long time.

I thought Wolf 2 had an excellent marketing campaign. It released on a particularly busy day though.

I'm not getting excited. Nope. You're not going to do this to me, I still remember last time.

That's exactly what I'm expecting.

I also am slightly worried that they may repeat this BS again but... well, back in the day Bethesda didn't have any confidence in the game, blocking the first reveal in 2014 to internet audiences, only promoting the multiplayer part of the game and not sending review codes until the day the game was released.

The game ended up being succesful and perhaps Bethesda has now enough confidence in the brand to show it to the whole world, I don't know I want to be positive on this one.

EDIT: Doom's official twitter account confirmed it will be broadcasted on youtube YAY! :D
