My 2nd run through on Doom 2016 corrupted the save file right near the end :mad:

, so much for cloud saves!

Instantly liking Eternal though and it runs like a peach.

Really enjoying it so far.

Has anyone had any success in adding the Bethesda launcher version of the game to Steam? When I try it locks up just before the main menu (tried with and without the Bethesda launcher running).

They clearly didnt once look at classic doom to see what made it tick because none of those elements are there. I enjoyed 2016 but this is yet another step further removed from "doom". It's a shadow of its former self now. What with the platforming and cutscenes and home "base". Doom should be 100% RUN N GUN. There is so little of that in this game, it's all coreographed for you.

This was never about classic Doom. This game is about carving a new path for the franchise. DOOM 16 got everyone on board and now they want to take it further.

Yes its absolutely a quake/doom hybrid...that was clear from the first trailers.

The OG Dooms still exist...and the recent ports of all 4 games on modern platforms are lovingly made.

Anyone else think the audio for weapon sounds is terrible?
Also my FPS is less than half that of Doom 2016, even on "high" (which is actually medium)

Not sure what your point is? OF course OG doom still exsists. Thats a pointless point.
This title is called DOOM. it should be a doom game. not a quake game.

Thanks.

I'm enjoying it more the further I get in to it.

Playing on Ultra Violence and some bits have been quite a challenge. You really have to use every part of your arsenal to get through it

Getting secret stuff to upgrade your suit and doing all the combat challenges is really going to help.

They really throw everything at you.

I found the first slayers gate to be the hardest.
As you progress and you get upgrades it gets easier.

Saying that I've just had an epic slug feast battle to the death on Sentinel Prime and Taras Nabad, you will need all your skills dialled in for those in-counters lol.

More demons than you can shake a BOOM stick at.
Those scumbags with the red energy shields are a **** to kill.

Robo-Spiders can eat my shorts on ultra-violence, that encounter with 3 of them one after the other. Ugh.

Nasher · 22 Mar 2020 at 20:35

Did they put some effort in to map design this time?

Kyo · 22 Mar 2020 at 21:43

Looks awesome. What's the verdict guys?

Aztec2Step · 22 Mar 2020 at 21:50

I think it's really good, they've upped the ante well!

Steedie · 22 Mar 2020 at 21:59

It's good fun but it's not a DOOM game for me, just too much platforming and puzzle solving. Not enjoying it as much as the last one so far

Scooby_WR1 · 22 Mar 2020 at 22:52

Went somewhere i shouldn't and found a easter egg.

I saw a twitch Unicorn skin... what the heck. This is the same crap that happened to Quake Champions. Tutu skirts, unicorn hats and love heart rocket launcher skins with rubber ducks.

I found that one but kept on trying to access the door.

I thought it might be a secret level in old Doom or something.

Felt like there were too many buttons and weapon switching at first, but the combat starts to flow pretty smoothly after a while. Defeated the spider bosses first time on ultra violence which surprised me... they were far too passive and easy to pick off from a distance.
