Yeah, I really love Serious Sam 3. That's not what I meant though - I was asking why he would rather it be like Doom 3 than the fantastic Serious Sam 3.

Becuase I have played Serious Sam and Rise of the Triad not so long ago, so I'd enjoy some hasteless atmospheric horror rather than fast-paced shooter. I grew weary of them in the last years. And because I love Doom 3, I really do.

 

[Gloam]

Like the sound of most of this. Speed is definitely something that's welcome, as is a big shotgun. Less enthused about the ripping limbs, kicking dudes stuff. Brutal Doom never did it for me, always came off as kinda stupid, prefer to shoot a dude than kick a dude any day of the week!

 

[Robot Pants]

Consider me hyped.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Sounds like the game is taking the infamous comic as inspiration. That's a good thing in my book. Should be absolutely nuts and metal.

 

[KainXVIII]

It was gonna be 60fps on PC no matter what, so that isn't really some bullet point for me, personally... and I suspect many here.

Yeah, its just means, that id will not push graphics to the limit and orientation to console hardware (too bad, remembering dat Quake~Doom3 days, upgrading pc just for this games )

 

[The Real Abed]

So, it's like Serious Sam 3? From what information PCG shared it's definitely looks like Serious Sam 3. I really hoped it to be like Doom 3.

There's nothing about Doom 3 that I want Doom 4 to be like. Nothing at all. Not the engine. Not the gameplay. Doom 4 needs to be as far from Doom 3 as you can get. By which I mean 10 years so far from Doom 3 that it's practically Doom 1 again.

 

[ShadyJ]

I'd love it to have some of the fear/atmosphere doom 3 had

I'm pretty sure there are other games you might look to if you're into that stuff.

 

[JimiNutz]

I like the sound of it all.
Fast paced violent shooters are my favourite. Plus I loves me some gore.

 

[PensivePen]

I'm pretty sure there are other games you might look to if you're into that stuff.

Certainly no recent ones.

 

[The_Player]

Certainly no recent ones.

Could you be less vague, please? What games did you play that you didn't enjoy them?

 

[dark_inferno]

This sounds like Next-Gen Doom like it should be.

 

[Gamesadict]

Sounds great, but I need to see a video before getting hyped.

 

[Guerrilla]

So how is this possible? There isn't even a single photo uploaded anywhere???

 

[IncandescentPrecept]

Is Doom still big? I've never followed this game beyond the original shareware.

Is Doom still big? I've never followed this game beyond the original shareware.

Doom has a large fan community that pumps out very creative map packs and mods on a regular basis. Members have altered Doom's source code to allow for higher resolutions and greater custom-content capabilities, and so sites like Doomworld and the ZDoom forums have fostered a generation of talented game makers.

Fun fact: ACE Team (Zeno Clash, Rock of Ages, and now Abyss Odyssey) got their start by making total-conversion mods like ZanZan.

 

[Morphine_OD]

So basically they just copycat someone's genius take on Doom (Brutal Doom) and implement it in AAA and claim it was them all along. Only hardcore fans will know the truth.

Damn, can't enjoy the game now.

 

[Daffy Duck]

I need to see this!

It sounds awesome!

This isn't due until late 2015 I assume.

 

[Dragoon En Regalia]

Damn, can't enjoy the game now.

It's okay, calling it Brutal Doom's a simplification of New Doom. The game looks more like the Doom Comic in game form than anything else, at least gathering from liveblogs.

 

[jaosobno]

OK, my hype levels are definitely intensifying.

I really like that they scrapped that entire COD formula that Kotaku reported they were aiming for few years back. Looks like they saw what Machine Games were doing with Wolfenstein:TNO, looked at Brutal Doom and mixed it together.

After all the Doom&gloom (pun intended) about this game, nice to see that those lucky enough to see the presentation first hand were so impressed.

Now, WHERE IS THAT LEAKED FOOTAGE?!

Seriously, after seeing that people really like the new Doom, why not just release the trailer to public (no point in waiting for 2015. which will be jam-packed with megahits).

 

[Von Krukru]

Has any video leaked yet? How can something like this be kept secret these days?

 

[BigDug13]

Is taking inspiration from good ideas always considered "copy cat"? It's not like they're using any of the engine or assets. They just took some ideas from brutal doom and implemented it in their new game.

 

[Sid]

So it's confirmed it isn't cross gen?

 

[dex3108]

If demo is that good release video for public so we can judge it

 

[derFeef]

Has any video leaked yet? How can something like this be kept secret these days?

The better question is how can something like this not get shown to the public? Seems like everyone was impressed and enjoyed the demo. Come on Bethy, release the video.

 

[sono]

Sounds good.

... and apparently it even had the same sounds as the old one.

I hope we can have the option of the same soundtrack as the original..

 

[Deleted member 102362]

Write-ups are nice, but without seeing/playing the game myself, I don't feel excited. I think part of my interest in this game's been dampened by the decision to, after all these years, only show off the game at QuakeCon and hold off showing more publicly till next year. That and all the negativity surrounding id for the past few years.

I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade - I'm happy they're finally showing the game off. But I need something more tangible for me to get a feel for Doom: Not Doom 4.

 

[Rizsparky]

I'm super disappointed it hasn't leaked yet.

Hah, this!

Sounds pretty impressive so far.

 

[Robert J. Sullivan]

i'm more interested about the level and monster design tbh

 

[simplythebest]

New Doom you say?

 

[MoGamesXNA]

.

 

[zhao3gold]

Also 1080p/60fps on Xbox One?

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Well that isn't really what Doom is, or was ever about. Doom 3 was a monumental mis-step in terms of staying true to the series ethos.

Interesting. What about sales of the Doom games?

 

[Finalizer]

I wonder what Sgt. Mark thinks of this.

Of course if he was here on Gaf he'd be banned in less than 10 minutes

I figure he had the smuggest grin on his face when reading about his obvious influence.

 

[Drencrom]

Sounds exactly what I want from a nextgen Doom title, when do we get to see the Quakecon footage?

 

[Dragoon En Regalia]

I guess they sell well enough for Bethesda to grab the franchise for itself, lol. Doom 3 BFG came out recently and made the rounds.

 

[Jito]

Also 1080p/60fps on Xbox One?

This is not what they announce at a closed door stage presentation at a convention. Try again later this year maybe?

 

[Dictator93]

Was wondering something similar. Also, that guy surely knows how to get banned.

 

[Levyne]

Sounds great, but it's hard to be truly excited without anything to look at.

 

[Seik]

So...from what I read so far it seems awesome.

I really, really hope it'll deliver.

 

[Metfanant]

Also 1080p/60fps on Xbox One?

Supposedly...id's engines of late have been very scalable..it should allow the Xbone to reach that goal...

Whether it matches the PS4 in other areas is a whole different story

 

[playXray]

This is awesome news. Hopefully it'll be the game that Doom 3 should have been.

 

[Fried Food]

Any footage leak out?

 

[Nokterian]

I just hope they put heavy metal in this because it's fucking doom.

 

[Dictator93]

Supposedly...id's engines of late have been very scalable..it should allow the Xbone to reach that goal...

Well to be fair, to scale to the graphics they have on consoles... both engage in dynamic resolutions at times.

I definitely find this to be an alright idea for consoles... but definitely should be an optional thing on PC.

 

[DieH@rd]

Why no leaked footage?

Everyone who entered that keynote hall had to check in their phones and cameras. Plus metric shitton of Quakecon volunteers and Zenimax employees actively monitored the audience.

Wait, really? This is known for a fact?

So looks like we'll be getting jack shit then
