Seconded, looks really cool.
Yeah looks great. And you see the detail so much more, like the blood on the floor.
Don't know about the glowing cacodemon mouth though :/

Damn that color corrected one with the Cacodemon is SICK. Please look like this!

This is the one I'm loving. Looks like Doom. Far more than the demo with the coloring they showed. It's perfect.

Wow, the colored one is way way better than the official brown filtered one. That is one of my complaints, the monsters all blend into the background.
Agreed! You can still make hell look like hell while giving it and the enemies some more color. Not everything needs to be light brown.
At first I thought it was just samey monster design and the lack of vibrancy and contrast were just adding to that. But these shots show that no, it's entirely the lack of vibrancy and contrast that is the problem.

Has SweetFX worked with Id's games in the past?
I imagine it would be very possible to make the game's colors look like the edited ones above if SweetFX is compatible. Hell, half of the SweetFX mods I've seen were saturated like mad. The other half desaturated.

Yeah. Those corrected shots are exactly what I want to see. Someone take this to the highest level at id. DOOM isn't just the gameplay, it's the look. And the original just had so much more color mixed in with the brown and grey. Will DOOM 4 have bright green slime or bright red blood pools and rivers? Will there be water, and will it be colorful or clear and realistic? It's all about the looks as well as the gameplay.
Hopefully someone will mod it in if we don't get it. Simple texture changes could be all it needs.

I know this has already been quoted a dozen times, but oh my GOD that looks great! Why, just why did they have to make the game so brown and gray!? The importance of color seems lost on so many developers these days.
Thankfully the game is still a long ways off, so perhaps if enough people complain about the colors (and send them that image comparison!) they'll try to change the visuals for the better?
The colour did also help a lot with the gameplay. The enemies in Doom contrast really well with their environment and had distinctive silhouettes so that it was really easy to tell what they were even when they were a 10 pixel splotch on the horizon. That's not as necessary anymore but that is still a huge part of the games' visual identity.

Not going to quote the pictures again, but I agree. The color corrected versions with actual red cacodemons and Doomguy's green armor make the game looks so much better and so much more DOOM.

Oh yeah. That does look excellent. This game has so much potential. So hyped right now.
How so? Because, i can see no resemblance whatsoever.
The "more color version" does look a lot better! I dont think they have to remove all the color grading, but making the enemies stick out more is a good thing.
yeah theres opengl support now. DOF in rage works better with sweetfx than the built in one

Wow, this NEEDS to happen. The game looks like generic FPS mud in its current state.
i donnt have a problem with the current graphics, butthat is SOOOO much better!

Even if id doesn't bother fixing the colours, those screens give me hope for some nice mods.
But id should really take a long look at those pictures.

I can't rightly say that I prefer one over the other. One looks more like Doom, but does not fit with the overall aesthetic. The other fits with the aesthetic but the colors are so muted the tone becomes dull.

Okay. What is with modern devs? STAWP with your "artistic direction" and give us freaking colors!
Why do devs think that muddy, yellow, sepia filters do ANY service to their game?

Holy! That looks so much better. :O
I think that's a bit of the issue though - they fit in too well, but if you think about it, they should feel well out of place there. They're from a different world altogether, but they fit in like they belong in that shot.
In hell this obviously wouldn't be the case. Still, the yellow/brown color looks bad in my opinion. If they really want to go with an extreme color grading/cast, go with red then.
Inconsistencies in coloring and styles can also help to broaden the world itself. Not everything has to look like it comes from the same family, variation is nice. It just shouldn't become too disjointed.

This is not a bad way to put it, and I'm one of the biggest Quake 2 fans you'll ever find.
One could argue that Quake 1 was more green than brown, but still. Quake 2 was the original brown shooter and Quake 3 took it to the next level. Only Quake 4 fully subverted this trend by making everything shiny and metallic.

I actually like them both. hah
BTW, is anyone else having massive deja vus to some other thread we had about this same topic? I swear Derrick was involved... and Funky papa

That would be the Diablo 3 unveling back in the day. I was one of the dorks raging against Blizzard for injecting the WoW aesthetic into Diablo. Oddly enough, that was a case of a dev trying to make a dark and gritty game into something full of pastel textures and goofier enemies; so the precise opposite of this thread.

Would still need more enemies onscreen at once for me, but change the color palette as well and it would definitely be much closer and much more exciting, that's for sure.
