Rip and tear instead of snort and stare?
It sucks HP off enemies and then gives it back to you.

Out actively destroying demons and potentially save lives rather than making his brain soft and heart weak.

Someone needs to make a video showing a demon shouting THE FUCK IS THIS followed by Doomguy yelling YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE BUTTHORN!
Yeah put your textures on Ultra, not Nightmare.
a) Nightmare is possibly-maybe-sorta bugged and seems to crash all the time
b) All it does is use more VRAM, the actual texture quality is the same either way, you just might happen to see, if you're very unlucky, one or two slight instances of pop-in
c) Hardware isn't the issue. I have an 8 GB GTX 1070 and it still crashed all the time until I switched down to Ultra.
Just take it down one notch and the only difference you'll probably notice is less crashing. Good luck, hope it works.

Big news for multiplayer. Today's patch is reportedly adding two new modes:
"Faster TDM"
"Faster Warpath"

https://www.reddit.com/r/Doom/comme...eed_mode_that_was_in/?st=iqtra6p6&sh=5431092a
Marty Stratton did say they'll be testing out new modes, so it's good to see they're immediately experimenting with the #1 requested change.

Figured I'd try out the multiplayer mode, mainly to gather the two trophies. My Lord, the MP in this game is borderline rancid. Absurdly slow, terrible-feeling combat and hit feedback, small TDM maps and poor demon rune implementation.
It's insane how they nailed the single-player, but messed up the multi-player.

what's even more insane is that they keep supporting the multiplayer with new content and dlc but nothing for single player.
whoever planned this had no idea which part of this game would be good and popular.

Just finished the game on Ultra-Violence after 20 hours or so, had a great time with it despite rarely playing shooters.
Are there any plans for new SP content?

The game (steam) stopped working for me all of a sudden 
. I wanted to continue playing on my laptop, tried launching it through Big Picture and noticed the game not starting. So I tried again outside Big Picture and it worked but now, I get a corrupted save error when loading up the Campaign mode. Tried running the game on my desktop and it won't even start up there anymore. Help!
EDIT:
The game worked after rebooting my computer but shit, I get the save corrupted message here too! Did my laptop just auto sync a broken profile over steam cloud?

Me. The regular shotgun also has the explosive shot.
Yes, I like the grenade launcher on that thing.

Finally got around to finishing the campaign and man, what a great game this was. My only big complaint is how underwhelming I found the ending to be.

Ok, so I started this up tonight. Put a few hours in. I'm about to start the fourth level.
This game....wow. Probably the best thing I've played this year, so far. The character's movement speed is just perfect. This is probably the most enjoyable FPS I've played since Half-Life 2.

i'm terrible at this and ended up lowering the difficulty. having way more fun now. i'm at the kadingir sanctum. i'm having trouble at one part, not sure where it is exactly, but the amount of strong enemies is overwhelming.

When do i get the third weapon? I'm kinda sick of the pistol and shotgun.
I think I got the 3rd and 4th weapon on the second or third level. From what I've seen, you can get some weapons early by exploring a bit. The 3rd weapon was in a secret area when I found it.
Man, "Adaptive VSync" is the worst. I just left it on at first because I thought it to be, well, adaptive. I recognized some microstutter but just thought my ageing CPU (i7 2660K, but not OC'ed) wasn't up to snuff.
Now I deactivated VSync and the framerate is hovering between 75 fps in taxing areas and 90-140fps otherwise.
As to the game: man, haven't played such an addictive, fast-paced and simply fun FPS in ages. With maps that aren't linear corridors with a dozen cutscenes or so. Really, really great.

Ok, earlier I said this was the best FPS I've played since Half-Life 2.
Might have to walk that statement back. This is probably the best FPS I've played...period.
I'm absolutely floored at how good this is. I just finished the level where you acquire

Excellent! Probably going to jump back in and play another level here in a few minutes. I can't stop thinking about this game. It's so much fun.
It gets better
But i disagree with the best FPS statement you made.
Still, great game.

Beat this last night. I'm getting old because I found it tough in spots even on Normal (finished Doom 1 + 2 on UV).
Really fun game and a "pure" experience. Even the little bit of story was quite fun.
I don't absolutely love it like some people or as much as the rebooted Wolfenstein, but it is impressive to see Doom done right in the modern era.
It's funny how nostalgic seeing all of these old enemies brought back makes me. If you asked me what game has a great cast of characters I'd never say Doom, but as each one was introduced it made me smile and I knew each of their names...

Built a PC to play Doom after all the hype.
Worth every god damned penny. This game deserves a mouse and KB to decimate hell's minions, its just so slick, like a satanic spawn ballet of death.
Actually enjoying the MP too !

I prefer my DOOM tracks be nice and long, Mick, please and thanks!
Hey guys,
I just upgraded to a 1070. I'm having issues of low texture models and levels not completely loading on Ultra settings. All my other games run fine except for Doom. Doom was fine when I still have my 970 and everything was on Ultra.
Anyone have encountered this before and have any solutions?

If you still have your physical copy of DOOM you might wanna head to your local Gamestop
They're offering a free special edition sleeve this week (While Supplies Last) and it resembles the original DOOM box art!

Holy smokes really? Id feel like an idiot if i just walked in there and asked for a free cover and left. I still cant find anything on their website.
Edit: Nevermind, i found this on ID Softwares twitter. Im totally doing this tomorrow.
Worth every penny, I'd imagine it won't get lower than $30 even going into the Holiday season.

Is upgrading armor recommended in SP? I have ammo fully maxed and health up to 150 and armor at 50. Seems like it goes away the moment you get hit and don't want to waste the upgrade

Just finished the game today for the first time.
Whoa boy was that fun! Easily the most fun and refreshing FPS game I've played in ages. Probably my favorite shooter since The New Order. Just the frantic and fast paced nature of the combat and the totally over the top nature of the gore and music made the game so much damn fun to play. And it looked and ran beautifully on my PC. Extra kudos for the fantastic mouse/keyboard controls- the game runs fast and the crispness of the controls makes the whole thing a joy to play on PC.
Haven't touched the MP but if they release a single player expansion, I'll be there day 1.

Is there an online community for this or has it evaporated since the game's MP got so overshadowed by its SP?

It's not just that it goes away so much as the amount of armor each pickup is worth is so little you'll rarely get more than 100 outside of Mega Health. It doesn't hurt to upgrade it once you have a lot of ammo and 150 health though, and on playthroughs where you want to use Rich Get Richer, you'll need to upgrade it.

There were a bunch of new additions to SnapMap in the update as well. Hell themed modules, the weapon wheel, new props, new logic, etc.
