It's Safedisc, not Starforce, as far as I know. I think I've been asked 892730432 times on IRC to rip the game. I've never said no so many times in my life.
Haven't tested Multi yet, hardly anyone else has it.
I'm going to go check now though, I haven't checked since last night.
Edit: There was one Multiplayer server up with two other guys! Here's a quick shot I took, Very fun in the short time I played!
I was getting hit, which is why there's a tint of red around the edges.
I was running 1024x768 on High Detail, and it ran great in Multiplayer. Everyone had good pings.

I dunno about that Speed, it really does look like you have AA on in that last shot. Look at that door in the distance.
Where did you enabled/disabled AA? In game or in the ATI control panel?
Heck, in that latest shot, it even looks like you have AF on.
SpeedRazor said:
Holy shit! That's just crazy!
You should try setting both to application preference and making sure it is all disabled in game. I bet your performance would skyrocket...
That's good news, though. My machine is a bit lower spec than yours (2.4 P4 + 9700 Pro), so you can imagine why I was worried...

Alright, I'll give it a shot and get back to you. Been wanting to go play some more Multiplayer anyway. 
Edit: Back from some multiplayer with some more guys. Changed to application preference for AA and AF and AA is turned off in game.
Rocket Launcher
Fighting two at once
Guy shooting at me with a chain gun, I think.
Performance was even better this way, I may keep it this way for single player now.

SpeedRazor, have you benchmarked your system using either 3dmark01 or 3dmark03?
if you have, please post your numbers.

if youre considering doing a benchmark with one of those programs, just make sure aa, etc if off. most people just use the default valuesSpeedRazor said:

Time ta STEP IT UP
I like how I went on vacation last week and now I can't afford a Radeon x800.
Thanks for the pics though, guys. This game looks... unbelievable.

DSN2K said:some impressions ? gameplay ? story ?
I've played through the first actual mission where things start attacking, and it's great so far. The story leading up to that is fun, and overall I'm very happy I bought the game.
I'll be playing more SP later tonight, once it gets dark. For now, more Multiplayer!

Small question:
Do anybody know if my CPU will be a bottleneck for my game experience:
Athlon Xp 1700
Nforce 2 board with 512 megs of ram (333)
Radeon 9500 pro?
I wanna be able to run the game on at least 800 x 600 at medium resolution.
I checked out Hardocp, the guide just doesn't say anything about the game requiring more of the CPU than lets say, Far Cry?

Anyone know how an X300 se is gonna be for this game? It's not a long term card...a temporary card until 6800 gt's get released in pci-e format, but for now it's my only option. It's a 128mb card, but somehow i doubt that means i'd be playing in medium detail.
Just out of curiosity, too, how does an X300 se compare to say...a geforce 4 ti4200

can someone mirror those videos?
3DMark2003 is a graphics card test. If you have the same graphics card as SpeedRazor you will get the same score, but if you have different speed CPU's your FPS in Doom 3 will be different.crawlingpeter said:i think its probably about average. thats almost exactly what i get on 03 as well. thanks a lot for running the bench, i was wondering how itll run on my machine.
My computer with a Radeon 9500Pro gets much better scores than a computer with a 3GHz processor and a Radeon 9100, but I wont be able to play Doom 3 with my 1GHz processor while the other computer will easily get playable framerates at low quality.
Well said. People need to understand that this game was designed to accept a huge variety of graphic card. To be able to run a game as good looking as Doom 3 on a GF 5200, some of the processing time MUST be fowarded to the CPU.Arcticfox said:
Also, its one of the first game I think will hugely benefit from a >1gig ram system. People with 128 meg video card being able to play at High quality should mean that the card is getting some help from the system memory.
Will this be unplayable with a 1 ghz AMD athlon? I can play Far Cry on the highest settings at 1024x768 at around 20 fps, but I see that the minimum is 1.5 ghz (my motherboard doesnt support higher [soyo k7vta pro]). But my video card is decent enough, radeon 9500 non pro softmodded to 9800 pro.
If you want to see my 3dmark 03 test, here it is:

I would really like some answers, as I really cant afford a new computer now, but would love to play Doom 3. If you think there is no chance, Ill wait for the demo, but I would really like to get this game this tuesday.

Sigh... anyone have similar specs and want to give impressions... [H]ardOCP says the game is still very much enjoyable on minimum specs (GF4 MX, ugh)
