gameplay looks great, can't wait. don't really care about invasions but i'll do em for the trophies that will most likely require em. the lives thing seems really interesting.
love the grapling and dash moves. Also loved the master chief like moment on phobos. Doom Guy will finish this fight.

Oh I know, I am just talking vanilla here, mods save that game imo lol
This quite literally isn't true lmao, and even if it was (again, it isn't) the fact that you watched a staged 10 minute gameplay trailer and immediately went "oh man, they FUCKED it up again in the sequel" is very funny and telling.
Valiant's for the original Doom engine. I haven't touched Doom 3 in like 10 years, though I thought it had a certain charm.
I mean, it could be true. I remember this guy on GAF who basically destroyed Arcade mode and said something similar.
The thing is, most people don't play the game the most efficient or optimal way, they play however they want and using the weapons they like. That's why more people haven't noticed these "obvious" failings.
It's level 5, yeah (just checked).
It's not telling. I played the SHIT out of the first game and it does a lot of stuff wrong. It is better than a lot of FPS games we have for over a decade but doesn't hold anything to even Quake 1 (because it certainly doesn't play like Doom).
There are things that some of id's first games did better than Doom '06 that I really want them to address.
Number 1 is that the game is easy af even with controller... Because barely anything can actually hit the player if they're jumping. It's like playing zDoom.
Remember that guy just one hour ago saying the super shotgun was trash
And now there's somebody else saying the super shotgun was OP
So which is it

They have a sword now? Godamn, this is awesome.
Good to see Aracnotron again. Can't say much about the zombie guy xD

The super shot gun is one of my favorite weapons in video games, so glad they showed it, and that meat hook sounds fucking incredible
"Story justification" for why there is an issue with the negative difficulty curve just cannot be a serious answer. I mean, for a game that's entirely praised for its gameplay...
I hope SnapMap is back. Was legit the best part of the game hmm
Jesus Christ, man. Talk about showing people how it's done. This is a fucking sequel.
Only trepidation I have is their dedication to the lore. Hopefully, they realize that what made the lore so awesome was how cryptic and in the background things were. I want more lore, but I don't want shit spelled out for me in-game. One of the pleasures regarding DOOM 2016 was seeing all the fan theories pop up regarding symbols and story elements and how they might relate to the original games and even Wolfenstein. Don't dumb it down, ID.
Dude, I'm all for difference of opinions: but you're out of your mind. One of the first things that stood out watching that presentation was how much more character the Glory Kills have in relation to the first game. It's not even a contest. More than a few of them are even comical without breaking immersion. Your initial post is just wrong.
Also, how is that Assault Shotgun not going to be OP as fuck?

Just one thing... It's more faithful to the original sure, but i prefere the version of mancubus we got in doom 2016

If I can 1080/60fps this with my 1050ti without it looking like crap I'm in day one!
What are the differences between Tech 6 and 7?

Watched 20 random seconds of this video and decided to go media blackout on this game. I don't want to see anything else.
Is....is that a futuristic crossbow? I commented on the game in the gameplay thread, but holy shit, that's on another level compared to the Meat Hook Shotgun. In general, super interested. Doom Lore sounds like something you can easily fuck up, but I say give it a shot. I mean Halo Lore is a thing and that worked out fine.
if youve played so damn much of it why do you keep getting the year wrong in your posts
oh haha, I meant to say Doom 2016 but for some reason was shortening it to '06
;(
I played a ton of Doom
The most fun I had was on certain SnapMaps, so I really hope they are still in the game.

Nah. DOOM 2016 did what Halo: CE originally accomplished and it's sequels totally screwed up - rich narrative exploration through minimalism. The Halo sequels blew everything up in an attempt to make the video game equivalent of Star Wars and the franchise hasn't been the same since. I pray that Id is humble enough not to make the same mistake, because what the first game started out with is amazing.
I loved everything about the footage, the few environments we saw looked so good, especially the one when they mentionned creating a "DOOM universe". I wonder if they'll hide some DOOM II level the same way they did in DOOM 2016 with Ult Doom maps.
I always hoped we'd end up using the Crucible and based on the end...looks like we will.

Don't know about "objective", but I agree for the most part -- the best part of DOOM 2016's campaign were the earliest levels, which were very open, especially The Foundry IMO. The later levels were more about going from one killing room to another and the game overstayed its welcome a bit as a result. Fortunately, the gunplay was just so much fun that most people didn't mind just so they could keep killing demons.
I think it's too early to tell. I would imagine that if the game gives you new movement mechanics, they'll also introduce new enemies to negate those benefits.
HELL YEAH!
I love the plasma rifle. I would love if they had an option to have OG skins for all the OG guns.
Yeah, I'm replaying now and Foundry is the highlight of the game outside some of the earlier Hell levels. It has that Metroidvania feel with lots of exploration in it.
They said it will be running at 60fps. I presume he meant consoles. Switch will obviously be 30fps.
Why are you playing zDoom with jump on?
And it's not you having issues with the first game that's telling (that's fine: I've already said the first game more than had its flaws), it's seeing a few minutes of canned promotional footage and deciding to galaxy brain it up and post things like "the grappling hook is op and jumping is still too strong" Like, damn dude at least wait until you actually play the game before shitposting about it.
Looks really good. Got very hype when the archvile showed up. That's my favorite enemy from Doom 2, thought they were such cool enemies in that game. Can't wait. They didn't announce a release date did they? Maybe next year then?
