Sounds good to me! Really looking forward to seeing how it compares in the end.

Eurogamer: DOOM Eternal Switch info (planned for same date, Panic Button dev, 30fps)
- Thread starter Hero of Legend
- Start date
Fantastic, and that should conclusively clear all doubts.
Glad to see Bethesda's incredible support for Switch continue.

I played Doom on PS4, otherwise would have gotten Switch. I'll get Eterbal on Switch.
I still intend to get Wolf II for it at some point...
I want to support it and want the gyro aiming. Only waiting a bit due to backlog + I didn't really care for Wolf I that much

I just want Duke 3D and Doom classic on my switch really.
And Redneck Rampage, Blood and some other oldtimers.

Yeah, pretty sure most shooters on console are 60fps at this point aside from Destiny. So happy that Rage 2 will be 60fps on Pro and X as well.
I mean, it's like how mouse and keyboard makes a huge difference compared to the console versions, 60fps or not. Those platforms are not really the optimal way to play this game.
I know its PR speak, but lol @ no sacrifice to the experience.
Its exactly what it was, a sacrifice to get it running on the switch. It was either that or nothing.

It's great to hear that they're making it with the Switch in mind from the beginning too.
There was a German article indicating idtech7 was built to take advantage of FP16 and has optimizations geared towards reducing the bandwidth load. I'm betting they specifically added those things to make the engine more Switch and mobile friendly too.
It bodes well for the future of handhelds.

Haha, does that mean Nintendo fans are no longer red headed step children?
We need more studios like Panic Button. Their workload must insane right now. Imagine how many projects they have turned down at this point.
Despite having a PC more than capable of running Doom at 2k maxed out - I'll be Switch day 1.
Having owned 2016 on both PC and Switch, i've finished the Switch version and stopped playing the PC version.
Lunch break Doom is so much fun :-)

Took me about 5 minutes to get used to it going from Doom on PC to Switch.
The huge frame drops like the ones during the Argent Tower mission were much worse than halving the framerate overall.
Sounds about right, hoping planning around the switch this time gets it st a more stable frame rate and resolution.
Same. Portable mode Doom instantly makes it the best version to me.
30 fps is certainly not ideal. It also doesn't make DOOM some unplayable mess. If Switch owners are willing to make that trade for the convenience of portability, I am sure they can manage. This is no different from the standard set by Panic Button's previous work.
This all seems as I would have expected. Very cool. Hopefully we'll see more Day 1 ports in the future. Perhaps 2019 will be the year it becomes more common than not.
As a Switch owner, I certainly would be in favor of this. I think Tantalus might somewhat qualify, but their output has seemingly been lower than PB's (I could be wrong about this) and they aren't exclusively focused on Switch.
Assuming Nintendo does a full revision (i.e. new chip/node and not just an overclock or something), I really think Switch ports will benefit immensely from it. Anything to help bridge the gap between it and Xbox One/PS4 will probably be a gift for every major publisher who wants to profit from Switch users. (This raises software compatibility and install base questions, but this is then a topic for an entirely different thread.)

I'm thinking this. I want to support the switch version but not at launch
A god damn AAA multiplat fps game is coming to Switch the same day as the other platforms in 2019.
Will pick the game on PS4, but shit, first one felt good on Switch, even if I had already done the game on ps4 first.

First class citizen? We tier one now.
P.S. Whatever you do, don't try to sell this game on the used market. Bethesda's lawyers will be onto you quicker than flies on...

Kudos to Besthesda for the excellent support.
I'd argue using controllers instead of mouse and keyboard for first-person shooters is a much bigger sacrifice/difference than 30 vs 60 framerates, if you want to be pedantic.

Come on Bethesda, get a bigger cartridge for the game this time. Have a little faith in us.
Did they port anything to Switch? I know they were quite the prominent porting studio in the Wii U days but I haven't actually heard about any work they did for Switch.

as long as Nintendo is a generation behind in tech, the majority of the AAA 3rd party shooters will continue to be 30fps.You can argue that next gen will try to prioritize 4k resolution, while Nintendo could have ps4 graphics and try to get 1080p a standard, but next gen is supposed to have a huge upgrade in cpu power too. Not sure how Nintendo will match that unless they make a console on par with the competition that is separate from the hybrid.
1080p 30 fps vs 4k 60fps if Nintendo tries to get a 2 TFLOP console vs +12 TFLOP next gen, notably if Nintendo falls behind in CPU.
