DOOM Eternal getting even better. A Horde mode was exacly what I wanted.

Now you can

 

[Transistor]

Oh hell yes

 

[Zebesian-X]

Horde Mode replacing invasion mode sounds like a W to me. V exciting

 

[jokkir]

Hoped there'd be Deathmatch. Been playing ton of Doom again now that it's on Game Pass and it's been pretty fun

 

[Equanimity]

Cool

 

[Hieronymus Bosch]

Imagine if it was coop horde mode

Single-player only horde mode sounds incredibly boring IMO.

The actual hell on earth is using that font for body text.

This is the dream.

Replaying this game with the next gen update has reminded me how damn good it is. It really feels like a product where the artist's vision was fully realized.

 

[Decarb]

Horde mode needs to be co-op. SP horde is not that different from campaign.

I thought it was co-op horde mode. Just read the statement 😐

 

[Dever]

Neat, too bad it sounds like Invasion is canned for good

 

[chainlinkspiral]

Damn. That'd be terrific.

 

[EJS]

Yes!

 

[mrmickfran]

The closest I'll get to a Bloody Palace in Doom

 

[ray_caster]

RIP Invasion mode.

In all seriousness, I think the time for invasion mode has passed unfortunately.

 

[Poldino]

Sounds very good, yes!

Is it going to be free?

 

[Deleted member 11637]

Dude, the main game feels like horde mode already. Even on Hurt Me Plenty I feel like it takes 5-10 minutes of non-stop ripping and tearing before I'm done with many of the combat arenas.

 

[Anumariku]

Needs to be co-op!

 

[No Depth]

Oh it's Single Player only?
Like a wave-based survival mode then without friends. Or basically arena fights from the main game I've experienced splintered into its own mode.
Something I won't play.

 

[Indy in the Fridge]

Cool choice but bummed its SP only.

 

[Ciao]

Edit
Misread the post

Perfect mode to add to the series, can't wait! I just need a PS5 controller that DOESN'T drift now.

 

[Kill3r7]

Missed opportunity to add co-op.

 

[Zebesian-X]

Yeah, I hope they give it another go for the next DOOM game. Could be really fun if you get it up and running as soon as the game launches

 

[Cerulean_skylark]

I don't really get the folks lamenting "co-op" like this game is well designed for coop...

Anyways, Glad to see it. Doom eternal is a total character action game and horde mode is perfect for just getting in and shooting demons without the level design people complained about.

 

[Vertpin]

Shame about invasion. However, this sounds great too. Hopefully we get some sort of classic death match (and multiplayer gets cross play….)

 

[Log!]

Hopefully the official horde mode starts out less ball-busting than the two mods by Proteh, lol.

 

[White Glint]

Don't care about invasion mode at all. Gimme that horde mode for sure.

 

[hey it's that dog]

This.

I don't even have a problem with the level design but if they're going to give me a mode with a higher concentration of the best aspect of the game I'll take it.

Is there still a player base for that? I'll be all over that if that's the case.

 

[NattyBo]

Ohhh, they've got my attention

 

[Cokesouls]

Oh fuck yeah hahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahshahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaahhahahahaahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahah

 

[Moff]

invasion mode scrapped was to be expected, hode mode will probably use the battlemode arenas. not a bad idea to be honest.

this is what I first thought it meant. Missed opportunity IMO

Doom Eternal is such an incredible polished package both from a gameplay and visuals point of view. It's great to see how the devs keep on delivering updates that improve on both ends.

 

[Astral]

So this will basically be more Slayer Gate goodness right?

 

[My Blue Heaven]

the invasion mode always seemed like a half baked idea anyway, won't be missed

[NightShift]

That sounds a thousand times better than invasions. After playing a fair bit of the "slayer vs demons" mode or whatever they call it, I really don't think it would have worked. Having the campaign suddenly be interrupted by a spongey enemy that often times runs away would have been lame.

I can play a barebones horde mode forever though.

 

[Gunny T Highway]

The Slayer Gates are already a horde mode. Kind bummed it is not co-op and they just throw even tougher demons at you with 2 or more Slayers.

I think depends on the time you play since I've been in full games plenty of times since it came on Game Pass and also empty games if I played in the morning but eventually found players.

Hoping Game Pass ups the multiplayer numbers a lot though

best shooter gets better

Was kind of hoping when I read the title of the thread.

Finally started playing this game with the PS5 update and I already just can't get enough, fucking spectacular. So happy to hear that the game will continue to be supported, I see myself playing it for a long time.
