Please tell me there's an alternate skin without the Halo-esque helmet for the main character. Thanks.
I have a buddy at work who is hoping this will be some kind of creepy atmospheric experience like Doom 3. I keep telling him it's closer to the original Doom games where it's all about gore, speed, and metal but he doesn't seem to get it. He's self proclaimed huge Doom fan, but hasn't played Doom 1 or 2 at all.
I was on the fence after the MP beta and some of the early footage, but I'm on board now. Can't wait!

Does anyone know the answer to this?So is the game a sequel to the original Doom series (1,2,Final) ? The words spoken at the beginning of the trailer say something about him returning again and all.
Why not send the reviewers their copies like a week in advance so they have time to play through the story mode well before the game comes out, then let them assess the multiplayer and SnapMap after launch?
With what they have decided to do, the reviewers have to play through the entire singleplayer campaign, play a bunch of multiplayer, and test out SnapMap before they can put their reviews out. It just seems like a ploy to have as much extra time as possible to sell the game to people without them being able to know how good/well-reviewed it is.

The game takes place in first-person, it's really gonna bother you that much?

Pretty sure Doom did the space marine helmet way before Halo ever did.
Kids these days.
Quick question: When is the Review Embargo for DOOM?
It could be up yesterday but we wouldn't know because they aren't sending out review copies.
This made me giggle.Doom has been ripping off Halo since '93.
Mannnn, Event Horizon... I know it wasn't received well, but this movie bothered me when I first watched it. So I kinda like it, lol.The Doom movie was great, when it was called Event Horizon
Yeah, that was basically his response, too.What a stupid excuse.
I mean who uses a Mini-Gun as a semi auto to fire one shot at a time? lol
So what about the PC version? REad the beta had bad performance?
Should I get this for PS4 isntead? System Requirements are not a problem for me.

i find this funny because the minigun in the original game is basically a semi-auto sniper weapon. the first shot is always pixel-accurate so tap-firing from a distance is the best way to use it.
I have a 980 ti... So yeah, no problem there. Just concerned it might not be as good as a port/version as I'd wantIt all depends on your System Req's. From what I've seen, the beta ran great on PC, if you had the PC to run it and not trying to exceed the actual capabilities of your PC as opposed to people that have this notion that their 4 y/o GTX 660 should be running brand new games at max settings at 1080p.

When do reviews drop?
In a universe where the pc version is badly optimized, ala batman arkham Knight for example.In what universe would a console outperform a 980ti?
I have a 970 and the beta ran fine. I expect the single player to be a little bit more demanding but not by much.

Not true according to the previous page. Review copies are being sent out, they just won't arrive until Friday because id/Bethesda feel the game as a whole package needs to be reviewed, not just the single player component and servers won't be live for multiplayer and SnapMap until Friday.
How people feel about that or it's perceived is another story.

Especially those"flashes"
Yeah, that was basically his response, too.
Name me one other AAA game in 2015 or 2016 that was as fucked up as AK on the PC alone. Because your post reads like you believe Arkham Knight is the standard.In a universe where the pc version is badly optimized, ala batman arkham Knight for example.

I'm gonna blow my speakers out with that shit.Does the Mick Gordon OST drop on iTunes and Amazon etc on the 13th as well?
That was at 1440p too, you'd probably constantly hit 200FPS at 1080/Ultra with Vulkan onI doubt that's the case. The GTX 1080 demo (1080p, Ultra preset) runs north of 100fps at all times once vsync is disabled. Sure, that's a GTX 1080, but it's estimated to be around twice as fast a 970, in which case anybody with the latter card (or AMD equivalent) should be able to manage close to an unwavering 60fps at the same settings and those with a better one have nothing to worry about.
It goddamn better.Does the Mick Gordon OST drop on iTunes and Amazon etc on the 13th as well?

Let it go already. This horse has been beaten dead. I challenge you to name any port on PC that performed as badly as AK since AK was released that didn't perform poorly across all platforms.
Even that aside, AK plays fine(60fps) now. ESPECIALLY if you have a 980ti.
That shitstorm should never ever be the measuring stick for PC ports. That was one fuck up by parties that didn't give a shit.
id are never going to release a PC game in that state. You have nothing to be worried about, if you have a 980ti I would get it for PC.

I remember when DOOM 3 came out, I just blasted that opening menu theme on full volume for weeks.
I've been watching bits and pieces of the game through early streamers, and the soundtrack is absolutely superb from what I've seen (heard?). It doesn't play all the time, but it seems to be en eclectic mixture of Doom throwbacks and modern metal.We should be friends. I love Chris Vrenna.
I have been scouring the internet for any snippets of the Doom soundtrack the last week trying to hear every little bit I could. Hopefully they release the OST in the next couple of days as opposed to the 13th. It'll give me some time to listen to it at work before I delve into the game next weekend.

Obviously arkham Knight was an exception and yes, it is in a better state now, although I wouldn't want to wait in this case for the game to be in such a state.
I was just asking because of the DOOM beta pc performance thread there is right here in GAF.
Was just answering like that because I was answered as if it was completely impossible for a bad pc port to happen, which is clearly not true.
Quantum break is another case I'd like to mention.
So yeah, bad ports happen.
