After the beta I realized I'm too old for these COD/Halo type of shooters, I really wanted a Quake 3 Arena experience with a new engine but alas, they gave us another modern shooter. Pity

"Rendering Mode"? As in "To Defer or Not To Defer: That is the Question …" :3eyes: Er: "Lots of lights" or "MSAA"? 🤓

Exactly what Bassgene said- I didnt play the beta but watched I am in my 30s I cannot find a game like this interesting any longer.Maybe the youngsters out there will like it tough?

I hear you. have you tried Unreal Tournament Pre-Alpha? I think you'll feel at home if you do.

Was just about to suggest this. I'm having a blast playing it, a game reminiscent of the old days where I used to play arena shooters like a madman. I feel it's actually improved my aim in CS:GO too lol.

Rendering mode I believe its where you would select, which API to render with e.g. DX11 / DX12 / Vulkan

From what I can tell, UT4 pre-alpha handles exactly like UT99. But I have some stuttering issues sadly 🙁

How's SLI support for this game? Or will it run in UHD on a single GPU at max settings without any problems?

From what ive seen of it on you tube it looks outdated like a console game trying to copy call of duty crazy really a game like doom which has lot of fans you think they would keep the style and gameplay of doom just update the game enviroment and graphics to the standard of an fps game like metro last light with some nice physx effects and graphics , but these modern games seem to be gimped by console hardware and look outdated

Well, I liked it. I can't wait to play single-player and make my own mini-mods with snapmap.

younger people who play call of duty will probably love it and buy it , older people who played the original game probably wont, but these game devs are in the business to make profit and call of duty sells in bucket loads even its basically just a reskin every year

I'm hoping the single player is good seeing as I've pissed 100USD into the collector's edition. I did not like the Call of Brolo multiplayer. As far as multiplayer goes I'd really like to see a remake of wolfenstein enemy territory, that's pretty much my favorite multiplayer game.

Has no one ever heard of evolution? The beta was fantastic and apart from a few bugs in the closed alpha which were fixed perfectly for the open beta the game is fantastic. Everyone saying its like COD, how on earth is this like COD? There are NO perks, there are no killstreaks, there are no deathstreaks, there is no regenerating health. How is this like Halo? Apart from the marines colour being blue and red for each team I see zero resemblance. Halo is a about wide open areas, it also has vehicles too. Doom is more about close quarters areas, with some moderate open areas, zero vehicles and just fun. Why not add in loadouts, why not add in special abilites like the coins that give you a slight boost such as seeing peoples health and armour bars? These are not perks and they barely add any form of disadvantage and they dont even last that long either. Who is also saying this game isn't faced paced must be freaking high. I have played the UT alpha and I see zero interest in that game as its just the same game from 20 years ago with pretty graphics. Doom has the right amount of nostalgia and the right amount of new additions. Its the same old story, COD has tried to evolve over the years too and some people prefer it and some people don't. If all you want to do is live in the past then go ahead be a cynic and you will live to regret it.

I'm 36, I mainly play fps. I'm from that "old skool" crowd, but, I also have an open-mind. If I find a game is fun, I'll play it. Doom is just another game to me. It's not like original Doom, but, that's a judgement from multiplayer mode. I'm pretty sure that this Doom is much closer to original Doom, than Doom3, which I also played and completed along with it's expansion pack. I also play COD:BO3 a bit, loads of CSGO, occasional UT:Alpha + Half-life:DM etc. Nevermind single-player in Far Cry 4, Serious Sam 3, Fall-out etc. I love sci-fi and the last 2 cod games (BO3+AW) are the first that I've really enjoyed since COD4, although, I found Ghosts to be only "ok". COD:BO3 is the closest they've come to catering to my tastes in terms of ways to move around. I also believe the simplification of Doom (2 guns) caters to a wider audience. Going with the "times" keeps businesses going as you know. I have no problems with this setup in CS. I do hope they release a "classic" mode where we can pickup all the guns like Quake3/UT. That mode is a server emptier though for the majority of this gen of players. People aren't used to having 6-8 shortcut keys for gun selection XD

Hehe. The reality is over the last 20yrs we're basically buying the same games/types anyway over and over again. I really don't care anymore cause there's only so much that can be done in the fps genre. I do hope Doom does really well and they announce Quake 5 though.

Yes but when we talk Quake, they should've think about Quake 5 Arena, no SP just MP and focus on that. I feel like this Doom MP will be dead in a months.

No SLI support. It was not supported in Alpha and Beta so probably won't be in full release as well. It is still using Mega Textures and that means no love for multi GPU's...

Its about opinions in your view its nothing like halo or cod but total biscuit a game crictic says it is not a true arena shooter , its console shooter very similar and reminds him of halo and cod and dosent feel like a doom game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztdKziK_aAs these game devs see call of duty sells and makes tons of money thats why they copy it and you end up with a bunch of very similar games

What he said. Let's face it, if they made a game exactly like old Doom what would be the point then? That game has already been done dozens of times over and over. Give me a solid shooter that's fun to play and add as many elements to that as you like and I'll be set.

Sad. I just turned 30 few days ago. Feeling same about games which i loved like crazy 🙁. Right now I am so into World Of Tanks even though my steam library is filled with 122 games.
