That's a project that will definitely get a C&D from Bethesda.

[OpenMaw]

That guy is gonna rival what's his face who was always obsessed with Betas.

That English. That fucking English. My stomach hurts from laughter.

[PsychoGoatee]

That is awesome.

"If you keep all of good doom, you have doom. This is much obvious.

Other things, not doom, they suck. We not have them."

Whether he's being genuine or parody, that's kind of a good parody of the usual stuff people say relating to sequels of oldschool shooters in general.

[OpenMaw]

They already moved it to Post Hell.

I wish those guys on doomworld had more patience and a sense of humor, because that could have gotten really glorious.

[icecoldduke]

Was he just fucking around, or was he seriously recreating the original Doom in UE4?

[Tea Monster]

I don't know Unreal that much, but the editor screen looks genuine. He's imported a mancubus model and set materials up for it.

Doomworld is a hive of tardation.

EDIT: Oh dear!

[icecoldduke]

There are going to be more and more of these projects popping up, especially if ID doesn't release a proper SDK for Doom. The guy that would normally build a testbox, put a AI in there and post about it, will instead, grab some Doom assets put them in Unreal and say "look I'm making a AWESOME doom game to stick to ID for not letting me into the beta/releasing a proper SDK/banning me/etc...I can do it, I'm a "leet haxor". This guy did basically just that, he used the Unreal First Person Template(the hand models are from there), grabbed some of the Doom HD textures, and some hd models and said "look I made something leet and awesome" :/.

[Malgon]

Apparently this is legit and not something fan-made. I thought some people might be interested in the musical direction that the game could possibly be heading towards. Can't say I dig it myself though.

[Tea Monster]

No offence to the guy, but the last thing we really need is another sector-by-sector recreation of the original Doom (or any game for that matter). There have been several now (I think at least 3 on idtech 4) and none of them have really managed to capture the spirit of the original and present anything that really gave a good reason for bringing it all back on a new engine.

Mix it up a bit. If you are going to strictly adhere to the old game as far as props and monsters, at least present some new levels that show off what you can do with a modern engine. Redesign Hell for next gen - but keep it a Doom level. Modern effects and design, old-school gameplay. I personally would want to update the critters and props a bit. "What if they had today's tech back then, what would it look like?" Don't be afraid to make it bigger and bolder.

Your assuming this guy could make quality work even if the idea was sound, I think he is just bad at gamedev. People that are usually good at making games, usually steer clear away from projects that would end in a C&D .

Or don't use their real name in Internet forums and live in foreign countries.

Is anyone giving away any goodies for pre-ordering? Normally I don't do the whole pre-order thing as I've been burned, but I've got to get the latest Doom.

No reason to pre-order this early, I haven't seen any goodies, and they won't run out of digital copies .

[Tea Monster]

Yeah, but I got a nice set of Heavy armour for TF2 and a pass to the Doom Alpha when I pre-ordered Wolfenstein TNO.

I pre-ordered Wolf as well just to get into the Doom beta's, but just saying I don't see anything that would get me to pre-order this early. As the release date comes closer(like within a month) I'll probably put in my pre-order so I can download it a few days before the release but that's at least what I'm going to do.

This suddenly made me wonder if there was a Doom TC for Quake, and it turns out there is (actual gameplay starts at around 2:02):

Also a review (Wayback Machine copy) of that TC.

[OpenMaw]

YPOD has such a funny little introduction with the doom guy at his house and he gets a phone call.

"F*CK YOU You piece of mutant rat-infested goat sh*t!"


It's a very janky mod.


Another one that's actually very charming from back in the day is "Some Old Games" or "SOG"




Features Doomguy, BJ, and Quakedude.

Surprisingly the quality of that mod isn't that bad.

Actually, it was "FUCKYOUYOUBASTARD-PIECEOFMUTANTSNAILSHIT"

[Tea Monster]

Howls of laughter! That was brilliant.

I wish I'd got into modding earlier. Those Doom mods are a mess, but they look like they had a ball putting them together.

[Lunick]

They were selling these at PAXAus so I had to get one...

[MetHy]

Cuteodemon.

Figured I was the only one to find those of interest. I have been wanting to get all three of them... very cool game room stuff.

They should make a set with a plush Pinky and an Imp.

...three? Are you referring to the Doom Guy and Pain Elemental plush? The Doom Guy didn't look as cool/cute but I did pickup a Pain Elemental too.

[Duke of Hazzard]

Holy crap I had no idea John Carmack owned an F50. I had to double-check if it was the same John Carmack from iD since the idea of it seemed pretty outrageous.

He tuned it with twin turbos, too, but later removed them.

I think I just found myself a new hero.

I mean, Carmack was already a hero of sorts to me, but now that I learned of this he jumped to god tier for me.

The thread also mentions Romero having a few of the red prancing horses... Fantastic stuff.
