Can't wait to play the sequel of ANGER ISSUES: THE VIDEOGAME.
This time I'll get it on PC, I built mine out of a strange "fuck I just ordered $1,200 of PC parts what did I just do" moment last year after I finished the game on PS4 and got it for cheap at XB1, so I'll be set when the time comes.
Seriously though. How old are you, 14? GameFAQs is that way my dude. Grow the fuck up.

lol, playing in console, enjoy aiming with your shitty controller in an underpowered POS hardware.

Not very glorious on the Pro compared to the X and then PC tbh. And all of those platforms are 0fps on the toilet.
Personally I own all three console platforms (want a high end gaming PC though) and it's X for me. But fucking hell isn't it nice to have the choice, knowing that if I get super addicted to this game, I can double dip on Switch and have some fun with it whilst I'm away with work too? Yeah it's brilliant, so why does that upset you so much?
Truth be told, technical marvel that it was, from a playability standpoint Doom on Switch wasn't great. That said by the time Doom Eternal comes out these guys have had almost 2 additional years of experience with the system and have been involved in the development of the game since day one, so I'd curb my cynicism until I actually see the game running and assume the best until then.
Doom for everyone, that's good.
If people wants to play portable DOOM with low iq, framerate and shit i dont see a problem as long as they enjoy the game and they are happy.

At this point either you add an /s at the end or I'm going to think you're a jackass.
You read some insane shit in this forum I can't even tell what's a joke from stupid console warrioring, to be honest.
Imagine being this anal about technical problems and not playing everything on a PC. Lol
Clues had been left on the E3 announcement website for Doom Eternal as per Marcus Sellers. So this shouldn't be a surprise. But still surprising to get an official announcement. Having said that, I think Bathesda really let a "mic drop" moment slip by them. They could have shown a quick gameplay segment then slowly pan out, and revealed the gameplay on the switch in handheld mode. Similar to the trailers for the switch version of sky rim and wolf 2. That would have brought the house down.
Every single one of these has pushed it to the limits and has a shitload of concessions to be able to run though?
First screenshot of the Switch version:
I'm just kidding guys plz don't hate.
I'd actually love for the original games + Doom 64 to come out on the Switch, actually.
I would love it too, it's an iconic game and it deserves to be ported to every new console imo.
Definitely in for Switch version.
Maybe the PC too. Reminds me I am dying for an upgrade. My PC is still...pretty good I guess but it's absolutely showing its age.
Surprised so many here seem to be into that version.

What? Doom at 4k(ish) at 60fps is a huge huge HUGE leap over the switch version. Come on now, even the most untrained eye can see how blurry it looks on a switch. You're acting like it's a 900p vs 1080p difference or something.
If idtech 7 is really that much more efficient than idt6, then that's a really good sign for the Switch version.
As we saw last gen as devs get more familiar with a console they are able to produce better results. That's no different for Switch.
While Doom and Wolfenstein are both pretty downgraded, Skyrim and Fortnite are definitely not showing the upper end of Switch capability. There's no 360 or PS3 game that could max out the Switch, and Skyrim shows that as it is based on the special edition version which is on the PS4 and Xbox One. Fortnite also runs very well on the system, much better than on any phone or tablet.
i'm not saying all games, obviously switch won't be able to run a lot of them, but still looking at the games that bethesda are able to run on the system, shows that a lot of other games can be brought over (with some compromises)
yeah that's a good point, maybe the thing stopping publishers is there aren't many studios who can down-port games as well as panic button
embarrassing
exactly, they have invested in the system. they were there from day one, and not with bs test games, but with their best stuff. sure, they may have been ports of years old games, but they were well received and they've said they're happy with their performance. i'm sure they'll enjoy the results of their investment for the remainder of switch's life and its successor.
Day fucking one for the switch version. Having gyro aiming will automatically make it the superior console version in my view, and portability is a nice freaking bonus.
Also, the fact that this game is probably developed ALSO with the switch in mind make me hopeful for a quality port.

This along with the added efficiency of the ID Tech 7 engine makes me super excited!
Arcade and just general replays. I like the MP but Splatoon2 and Paladins takes up all my online time lately.
Thanks! Yea that appears to be the case, lol.
Handheld Doom is fuckin glorious
And i could easily switch between PC version and Switch version without much problems, it's an absolute feat and pleasure to play this game on the go
You may not know this, but Steam has full support for the Switch Pro controller so you can play with gyro on PC too.
Edit: Shit, you were talking about the console versions, not the PC version, my bad,
What I'm really curious about is how optimized idTech 7 is compared to 6, and whether the Switch was taken into account when making the new version of the engine.
And, taking into account Panic Button's growing experience with the Switch hardware and idTech, Doom Eternal on Switch could potentially end up looking and/or run better than Doom 2016 and Wolfenstein.
Am I making any sense, or is this just wishful thinking?

You actually can watch all the versions on YouTube, or kinda:
Just set 1080p60 to watch Xbox One X / PS4 Pro, set 720p60 to watch Xbox One / PS4, and 480p30 / 360p30 to watch Switch docked / undocked.
Joking aside, what are realistically the expectations for Switch version?
NOW we can finally compare sales with Switch since we finally get a big brand new AAA game day and date.
FIFA and 2k.
regardless, it won't compare well to ps4 and xbox in terms of raw numbers. And no one should expect it to.
It's all about if it meets their expectations and makes enough money that makes it worth panic button porting. I assume the first game did or else the sequel wouldn't come.
nah, i was just kidding. obviously trolls will always pop up in some threads, but the switch base here is pretty big.
I doubt it will compare too favorably but probably better than people think.
Depending on when it releases the Switch install base might be larger than the XB1 install base too. So that may help it fare better against XB1 anyway.
It's gonna look blurry and details won't be sharp up close. Maybe some slight fps drops with the grappling hook.
Switch Skyrim may be based on those versions, but it's not really comparable to those versions as there's massive cutbacks to vegetation and LODs along with running at sub 1080p.
It really is very impressive that Doom Eternal is going to be on Switch.
Fifa was missing stuff and 2K had problems. So no they don't count. This is a real game that they put their heart into. Don't give me those half assed games.
I never said the Switch version is going to outsell the others. It just has to do good enough to feel like it was worth using Panic Button.
No versions were announced previously, but it was safe to assume it'd come to the usual suspects.
The point is that they run and people are having fun with them. That's the most important thing, because nobody cares about FPS or polygons pushed when you're at 35,000 feet and your gaming box is three time zones away.
I got NBA2K18 Week One on Switch and never had any problems...?
