Didn't see any thread, thoughts?

Update:

Google searching the images leads to some kind of blog, where apparently they have been posted on 2012/01/17.

Weird.

"Those images have nothing to do with what you're gonna see in Doom4. When we officially show things you'll see awesome"

He's the design director at id.

 

[MrDaravon]

Uh, what is going on with the 4chan background and music?

 

[joeygreco1985]

Can you post the screens here? Not touching 4chan

 

[Metalmurphy]

To those who can't stand 4chan.

 

[bobbytkc]

I never visited 4chan before.

I immediately regretted doing so when i clicked that link.

 

[StuBurns]

Doom 4 was a Half-Life.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

The style in those three shots is a bit inconsistent.

Edit - checked the thread. A bit more consistent with more shots there, but the graphics are, uh, not good. Unless that's the reason they canceled it, I call bull.

Spoiler

no shit, it's from /v/

 

[spats]

Oh dear.

 

[Corky]

That last pic looks like something from RAGE.

1) What a shame
2) Not surprised

edit : well not last pic anymore since you added more pics but you can clearly see that id tech 5 going on.

Same here. 4chan seems like the myspace of message boards.

 

[Nirolak]

Someone on GAF was saying the project was a total mess and they had to start with almost nothing when they finished Rage IIRC.

This was around the same time they had layoffs.

 

[54-46!]

Mods forcing memes.

 

[adelante]

I find the combination of epilepsy-inducing background and Erasure oddly hypnotic

Just took the roof off the corridor. Doom 4.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

somehow i doubt that doom 4 would have been taking place in destroyed human cities that look terrible, like some art student's project.

and if it did, i'm kind of glad it was canceled!

 

[cyberheater]

Doesn't look like a Doom game.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

>greentext about OP taking shit posted at /v/ seriously

Doubt they'd cancel Doom 4.

 

[Chiggs]

I wish id Software would cancel themselves.

I appreciate your contributions to gaming, ladies and gentlemen, but game design passed you by...along time ago.

Perhaps a strictly tech company is the way to go?

 

[golem]

Earth setting? Graphics look poor..

 

[54-46!]

>greentext about OP taking shit posted at /v/ seriously

Doubt they'd cancel Doom 4.

I'm interested in the screenshots part.

 

[Anteater]

Well I think the graphics for some of the shots does resemble rage

 

[bounchfx]

If that was doom 4 then suddenly id forgot how to make amazing graphics.

 

[Hoo-doo]

Google searching the images leads to some kind of blog, where apparently they have been posted on 2012/01/17.

Weird.

 

[Stallion Free]

3x teh gfx of Rage.

Doom 4 shots confirmed.

 

[infinityBCRT]

They honestly need to just go back to Doom 1 & 2 and HD remake those and remember what made Doom awesome.

 

[Bomber Bob]

Rage the lost levels

 

[StuBurns]

If that was doom 4 then suddenly id forgot how to make amazing graphics.

Suddenly? Doom 3 was a long time ago.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

If that was doom 4 then suddenly id forgot how to make amazing graphics.

Would explain the graphics issues with Rage on consoles

 

[Atomski]

Doesn't look like a Doom game.

Looks like Hell on Earth which was a setting in one of the novels I think. No idea why they would do it in a game though.. rather they stick to Mars or anywhere else in space.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

The hell on earth idea again? I guess. Hoping that, if D4 is made, it will go back to the Mars base setting, too. The mix of futuristic industrial tech and satanic/occult themes still works for me. As for the gameplay, I'm afraid they won't be able to transfer the essence of Doom if they overcomplicate the game as Doom gameplay may be too simple to survive another installment.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

lol at the mcdonald's picture.

 

[Nirolak]

Suddenly? Doom 3 was a long time ago.

While Doom 3's art didn't do that much for me, from a technical perspective it was at least very impressive.

This...

 

[peakish]

I hope not.

Suddenly? Doom 3 was a long time ago.

Boo.

[-WindYoshi-]

Good riddance. We do not need such negative games in the year 2012. Now is a time of peace and ascension.

 

[throwawayname]

Ok. Now start working on Quake 5.

 

[infinityBCRT]

... Serious? Doom 2 and the Doom 3 expansion were both set on earth if I'm not mistaken.

 

[kodt]

Some of the environments looked pretty cool. Some had good style, others did not.

Graphics look good but nothing mind blowing.

Sad if cancelled but not that sad. The same old FPS formula is becoming less appealing every year.

... Serious? Doom 2 and the Doom 3 expansion were both set on earth if I'm not mistaken.

yup

 

[Lost Fragment]

I don't habeeb it. Betting some dude just yoinked a bunch of shitty art renders from some college student's website, thought it looked Doom-ish, and decided to try and troll 4chan.

 

[Nirolak]

I still don't get why they would cancel the game based on their only worthwhile IP.

Cancel it and restart, sure, but I mean, Rage, Quake, and Wolfenstein are all kind of dumps compared to Doom (and basic profitability).

 

[Alextended]

They need to forget about any kind of realism in the setting or other stuff and just make a retro arcade FPS with complex levels you gotta thoroughly explore to eventually reach the exits. It should be far cheaper to produce and also get better reception. Maybe add some nice multiplayer too, it's been a while since we got a good DM from id themselves. Co-op with randomised levels!

Just FYI: That thread is gonna die within the next two hours: If you're going to post about it you want to save the images and rehost them elsewhere.

I also don't believe it, but wouldn't be shocked if Beth thinks Doom 4 wouldn't sale because of Doom 3.

Edit: DOOM 2 took place on earth, same name.

 

[StuBurns]

This...

That what I said. It's been a long time since Doom 3, the last time they were ahead of the pack technologically.

 

[Stallion Free]

... Serious? Doom 2 and the Doom 3 expansion were both set on earth if I'm not mistaken.

Doom 3's expansion took place on Mars and Hell.

 

[dimb]

If that is actually Doom 4 thank god it was cancelled.

 

[RPGCrazied]

That doesn't look very DOOM to me. I always thought it was on Mars or some space station.

 

[UnluckyKate]

That just look like Rage 2.

 

[dark10x]

Those shots look awesome to me. I don't see the issue. The texture works look absolutely phenomenal to me.

That said, the visuals don't exactly jive with what I would expect from Doom 4.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Nichijou header?

Spoiler

I suddenly respect 4chan more.

And if it's to be true. Doom will probably be back in some way or another.
What makes me so sure?
It's Doom.
