DOOM |OT| Rip and tear, until it's done

I very much have my doubts about SnapMap having longevity like Doom 1/2 wad editor tbh. It doesnt seem to be very robust in that youre stuck picking pre defined level "blocks" and mixing and matching these to create your level. It helps in making it very simple to use, but I feel the maps will end up being very repetitive and 'samey'.

Awesome visuals (for its time). [check]
Fast paced action. [check]
No auto health regen. [check]
Carry around an insane amount of weapons (by today's standard). [check]
Chainsaw. [check]
Find the red keycard and can't remember where the red door is. [check]
Get lost in the level and run around for 5 minutes without being able to find the correct way. [check]
Be exited about finding a secret location. [check]

Yes this is definitely DOOM.

But overall I love how they also managed to modernized some gameplay parts like being able to use the chainsaw to get ammo or the melee execution mechanic. Also the speed in this game is insane. I feel like I'm a true angel of death, gliding around the map and annihilating everything in my path.

Fair enough

I'm not even a metal guy (exception being Deftones and System of a down), but certainly appreciate what Mick pulled off here

Totally forgot he did Wolf: TNO as well.... man, I would just let that title screen music play for minutes on end. SO GOOD.

Some of the combat music is a little grating in the earlier levels. Hell especially sounds great when the
Gothic choir vocals kick in
though.

Going to make a SnapMap OT later tonight after work if no one else does. I love it and it deserves its own thread and more attention

Please do. I just played a co-op Parkour map somebody map, and a tower defense game with 4 people. And a heated CTF game. On Xbox, where the map makers names all had PC in username. It's a really great feature.

I don't want to mess up my save game (because of enabling potential cheats) but does IDDQD and IDKFA still work?

I'm thinking im gonna make a 4-player co-op map where each player is in their own partitioned stage but there are buttons littered through the game that will either send demons or supplies to the other players when pressed.

Is this game going to be a surprised like Wolfenstein New Order in terms of how good it was?

That's a firm yes!

And that's coming from someone who was highly sceptical of the euphoric opinions just a couple of hours ago. For me thos feels like when I first discovered Burnout 3 back then, only on shooter-terms now.

Woah, I just finished a co-op original Doom map somebody remade in SnapMap. The finisher moves work in SnapMap so we just went around ripping off arms.

Single player looks great and I may pick it up this weekend . Any big changes to the multiplayer or is it the same as the beta? What's max rank?

My father almost wept in tears when he saw the trailer . He hasn't played games in ages since the Ps1 days but as soon as he saw this he wants to buy a ps4 on Sunday. We were big doom/blood/shadow warrior fans back on the day .

Anyone having issues playing multiplayer? Loaded it up twice and tried to get into Team DM. Right when it finds a group the game just closes out. Any tips or suggestions?

Edit: I am on PC.

Can you play while it's still downloading or installing on Xbox or PS4? Still looking at 3-4 hours to download the rest, I assume, and I don't want to turn my system on for no reason but would like to start it.

I can get in fine on xbox one, but im seeing a lot of issues with connections and stuff. A lot of people have red bars, nowhere near as lag free as my experience in the beta

I guess I should specify I'm on PC. Thanks though!

Guys I lost my chainsaw. When you first get it, I died just after and now its gone. Is it a bug or is a one time use thing?

I'm making the assumption you're on the same platform as me (PC). Try pressing 'G'?

I rented from Redbox to determine whether this one is going to be a $60 pickup for me or wait for some discounts. Looking forward to it with all the good impressions.

I like it when he progression spoiler

. I tried to capture it because I wanted to gif that, but I accidentally pressed Start Record instead of Record like... last 7 minutes or whatever.

It's like he's
"Oh thanks, I got something fer you too!" Whapaah!

Doomguy is such an ass. I love it.

Also level spoiler
the freaking Toxin Refinery Classic Level was a pain in the ass to beat.
Took me like a dozen tries.

Wasn't expecting much from this game, but I've been watching Lirik play this on stream and it's pretty awesome. The game looks approriately challenging on a high difficulty setting.
The arena area's where you have to fight spawning mobs before you can progress are quite intense.
Looks like a well executed modern take on Doom that respects it's roots.

Question:

Are there quick-button controls to switch weapons for PS4? I really don't like weapon wheels.

IMO, I wouldn't mind seeing all 4 d-pads, plus square, triangle, x and circle all be quick-buttons. Make r1 jump or something. Fast weapon switching is important!

I was thinking about this this morning. It's amazing. I was so hoping it would be good, but expecting it to be disappointing. Turns out it's awesome.

So, SnapMap.

Has potential but also has several issues:
1) The UI is made for controllers. Utter crap with KB/M. Think i'll plug in my 360 controller to make maps.
2) No outdoors map, not even skyboxes or some kind of limited outdoors thing.
3) Object counts etc. maybe kinda low for what PCs can do, i think. I know the limits are there for consoles in mind but how hard is it to add "Made for PCs" warning for maps for console players?

Love ya id, console commands galore for folks on PC who just want to mess about and have fun, be it first play or later :)


How to Activate: To activate codes in Doom, bring down the Command Console by pressing [Ctrl + Alt + ~]. Input the code you want to use, and then press Enter to activate it.
Obviously, since these codes do change the way the game is played, we suggest completing the game all the way through without the use of any command codes, and then experimenting with which codes work best for you on your subsequent playthroughs.
