They announced they are making Bots for the multiplayer too, awesome.
They shouldn't have given it to Certain Affinity in the first place, they are known for making CoD-style multiplayer and thats exactly what they made, when all Doom needed was the most basic modes like Deathmatch or CTF.
I hope they also just drop the multiplayer DLC, release it for free to appease season pass buyers, and release singleplayer stuff. Won't happen, but still

I thought multiplayer bots were already a thing? Someone said they were in the leaked alpha.

[OpenMaw]

That Space Hulk shit is looking really awesome, BloodShot. Rock on, dude!

The guy working on them didn't finish implementing them into the final game, he was the lead on Snapmap.
He will be finishing them for both the multiplayer and for Snapmap, which is fucking awesome.

I like what I'm seeing so far Bloodshot

Tormentor released another batch of Blade of Agony screenshots.

I've always loved watching the Cyberdemon, and the Spider Mastermind fight each other on level 20 in Doom II. It's always fun to see two bosses fight each other to see who's superior (In most cases it's always gonna be the Cyberdemon) .



( Sorry if the screen is kinda red, there was a lost soul behind me, who decided to attack me at the moment I took the screenshot.)

[HulkNukem]

I played Gotcha! A LOT as a kid. I liked leading other demons into that big room and having the Cyber and Spider wreck them all.
It was the first time I discovered that the Archvile will attack other demons but they won't attack him also. Easy way to kill both the Cyber and Spider

This is cool but mixing Doom style pick up sprites and enemies with higher res textures and 3D models just doesn't work... Also the 3D models stick out due to the lack of shading on them.

Hey I've got some cool stuff too!

Going Down it's practically the Duke Hard equivalent of Doom, just in reverse.

Well yes, I got the idea for Duke Hard after playing Going Down.

I think there is a HL community mod on the same idea.

Why would you have to scale down a skyscraper when in Doom there's no fall damage?

Because you cannot break the windows to raid into the rooms.

Or a knee high wall.

[deuxsonic]

My favorite are invisible walls, what I've long just called "the hand of god". I can think of little that destroys suspension of disbelief faster. I hate it and I swear it's the laziest game design element that persists to this day.

[Inspector Lagomorf]

See, I took a lot of shit when I pointed out invisible walls on a Duke 3D user map, basically I was told "well can you think of a better way to stop the player from going over there? No? Didn't think so".

[deuxsonic]

There are better ways though. I would rather have buildings everywhere or mountains of garbage or some big door or something that at least exists in the game world than to have a big open area that when I try to enter (and by all appearances I should be able to enter), I hit an invisible wall, a reminder that I'm actually just walking through the narrow corridor that the designer has allowed.

[MusicallyInspired]

Maybe I'm just old fashioned and used to it but invisible walls have never bothered me ever. I get a small feeling of disappointment at not being able to go where I see I'd otherwise be able to go physically, but it's quickly over, I accept it, and move on. Of course, being clever about it and disguising borders does look better, but sometimes it can be obvious too (like a canyon with walls that go up to the invisible ceiling).

Only Minecraft got it right, really. Minecraft and No Man's Sky, I guess. Actually, even Minecraft has an invisible ceiling, so...maybe not. No Man's Sky has an invisible galactic wall, but I think that gets a pass...

[HulkNukem]

Invisible walls don't bother me as much if they are used in places where you would obviously not want to go in the first place.
If there's a game with some verticality in mind, like say playing as the Hunter or Smoker in Left 4 Dead, not being able to stand on all the rooftops within the play area can ruin a strategy. Block me from going into that city street that is two blocks away from where the survivors can even run, that makes sense, but blocking a critical rooftop right next to the survivors making a stand is bullshit
Overwatch also has a bit of this as well, there's certain curved roofs you just slide off if you land on them.

[deuxsonic]

If you're old-fashioned about it, then you aren't encountering these in the first place because of the technical limitations of said games like DOOM where you'd have to be cheating to encounter an area you shouldn't be able to go.

Nice to know those helpful instructions are accurate!
