Doom 3 always sucked.

Can you change the difficulty settings during the campaign?
Doom 3 is a cool game but it's definitely far removed from the rest of the series.
Yes

i just finished the first stage after the intro, damn it's so much fun, love the fast moment speed, and the glory kills
Or increase. I was getting nausea because the FOV was so low.
GLORIOUS GOOOOOOOOOOORE!!!!
Can't remember the last single player campaign (especially a FPS one at that) which constantly had me wanting to go back immediately after turning it off. It's just fun as hell.
I impulse bought it because I could get it off Amazon for £26 and if I didn't like it I could have sold it on for at least £30, so little risk. But I'll not be selling it any time soon. Already planning to replay to find all the hidden stuff and I don't think I'm halfway through yet!

Even on Nightmare this game doesn't really present much of a challenge. Once you get a grip on the controls, it's easy street.

I don't know if it's because I'm drunk but jesus these secrets are hard to find

The only ones difficult to find are the levers because they blend in with the environment so much. Otherwise, it's as simple as looking at your map and noticing, "Oh, that area is gray. Gotta go check that out I guess."

Honestly, the same can be said about Doom and Doom II.
Fucking Nightmare mode holy shit.
So good.
RIP AND TEAR!!

Happy to see this reception
Wolfenstein and now DOOM, these guys made me love shooters again

In the older games I think it was easier to be ambushed and run out of ammo.
With mouse look they were still pretty easy. I'm not a particularly good gamer and even I found Ultraviolence to be 'normal'. Ultimate Doom and the ensuing megawads were much more challenging. The first game was perfectly playable with just the keyboard, which is how I first completed it.
This game's a little bit tougher I think. I wouldn't want to try it keyboard only, lol. Just finished it on Hurt Me Plenty and died a few times on certain bits. Mainly me being careless. Playing on Ps4 so no mouse unfortunately. I imagine that would be easier.
In general, I think the game mechanics are excellent. There's still room for some balance tweaks though.

I'm stuck in the room regardless of how many times I respawn, sadly. It's really annoying that the game can ship with bugs like this. Regardless, at least my collectibles are saved and the level was fun to play!

Hoping now for a GOTY version box cover like Batman!
Best game of this generation by a long shot, can't stop playing!! We absolutely need more single player content. I wish they would just scrap the season pass, nobody wants 40 bucks worth of multiplayer maps, we want campaign content and snapmap updates!
That being said, I'm honestly shocked to see so many comparisons to recently released Wolfenstein games. What I remember of those games there was a lot of cutscenes, slow walking segments, and a surprisingly strong emphasis on stealth...Pretty much the opposite of what Doom is going for lol. I remember being disappointed because I wanted them to be what Doom ended up being.

Shameless plug of some gameplay I posted:

I think we're going to get a sequel, and if so - I'm fucking there on day one. This is the best shooter I've played since Wolfenstein: The New Order. I'd go as far as to say this is the most fun I've had with a game in YEARS.

don't know if it's because i'm stoned but, god damn, the secret maps are becoming a real pain in the ass to find...

Nope, they are really well hidden, I actually found more levers but I couldn't find the fucking doors into the areas.
The only one I figured out was the one in like level 1 or 2.
I'm the exact opposite. Finding these fucking levers is killing me. It's always pretty obvious where the door is if you look at the map.

How is the single player so good and the multiplayer so SO bad? It is horseshit, a waste of time, terrible and who made the multiplayer? It's so cloying and I'm embarrased FOR the people that made it. Holy shit. I only had to play a few matches and decide to wash my hand of it; those that made it wasted time on it that they will never get back. Oh my god.
The single player though? It makes up for all of that in the best ways. Can't wait to cut my teeth on the one-life difficulty.

Does anyone complain when movies get those lines like best movie of x year 2 months in.
Looking at list of shooters coming. Nothing will come close to doom. Cod battlefield are entirely different. Shadow warrior will get delayed

Yeah man totally! I mean that uber awesome SP expansion that'll probably come out later this year will almost definitely kick the ass of the main game.
The only thing that could top DOOM... is an expansion to DOOM.
C'mon id, Bethesda, pull a Bloodborne where we get the game now and a meaty expansion this holiday!

This.
Also enemies will just fucking come looking for you. I just started the Advanced Research Complex and sat idle while I was doing something else and a Mancubi managed to slowly work its way over to me.
Plus, try initiating encounters in non locked-down areas, those guys will just follow you around the whole level, regardless if you are 2 rooms away or behind a door. Something I came across while hunting for secrets and avoiding enemies.

You can't make it harder, only easier.
Gotta start it hard then.
I just bought this game. I hope it's as good as everyone is saying.
Titanfall 2 is the only SP shooter I think has a chance of coming close to this in quality but that's just blind faith in the people making it and even if it's good, it'll be a very good shooter in the vein of ones we have a lot of.
Shadow Warrior 2 is the only one with a similar feel and after the first game, I doubt it can approach the quality of Doom. SW1 was fun but overly long, repetive, and guns lacked punch.

Lol Maybe if we unite together, we can compensate for each others weaknesses and find these motherfucking secrets in these motherfucking levels.
on this motherfucking plane! Sorry I couldn't resist myself.
Fuck, that just makes me want COOP for the campaign.
Teaming up to find secrets sounds awesome.
Also, one of the levers you literally have to double jump platform around these pipes to get to a lever... with a gaping precipice below and Lost souls trying to kill you.
yeah, I need to go through again and find different upgrade paths.
I did get remote detonation (fully upgraded), It's fun, but still direct hits do next to nothing to most monsters from my experience, and I'm only playing on normal. As far as stagger goes, even an imp that was staggered WOULD NOT DIE even after being shot non stop with a shotgun/machine gun from a medium range away. Pulse rifle ended it quick but man some enemies just really, really resist certain weapons, especially at a distance (aka that one caecodemon took almost 20 rockets, direct hit. I don't even)
it's not an issue most of the time but it doesn't seem intentional either since it feels broken
Yup, reminded me of the Asylum Demon in Dark Souls if you stay too much on the fog ledge lol

Not sure what is everyone problem with the multiplayer. I am actually having a blast with it to the point I didn't play the single player more than 20 minutes before jumping back online.
Super fun and addictive. I only noticed somehow the speed online is less than the single player and I am not sure what is the reason behind it bit no complains.
This game is like my fps of the year. Impressive work and money well spent

This game makes me want a new Metroid Prime more than MP3 Corruption did. It really makes me miss it.

I'm not into single player but I love multiplayer games.
Grew up on unreal tournament, quake etc....
Will I like multiplayer?

Probably not worth it. The single player is what shines in this one
Because the devs of the multiplayer wanted to try their damndest to turn the game into Halo instead of making multiplayer doom.

To me it seemed more like Unreal/Quake than Doom but that was just the beta. Anyway, sounds like you will. Maybe check out some MP gameplay videos.
