How's the Doom3 Switch port?
Dylan Taylor
I still have the doom collection downloaded so I'm good. Haven't turned on my ps3 in a few years anyway
Aaron Davis
It asks every login for a Bethesda account and requires it always-online in order to play Doom 3 (not 1 and 2, just 3). Also no multiplayer.
Camden Sullivan
I've heard that the online login was only for 1&2
Benjamin Adams
They're trying to revive their failing LiVe SeRvIcEs attempt after Fallout 76 took it out back and shot it. No kidding, if you registered for Bethesda online while Fallout 76 was happening, you're at risk of identity theft, even if you never played that game. That's how bad it was.
Since they see the writing on the wall and understand completely that their attempt is on its death throes, they're now just going to force it on you.
Chase Ross
Just wait until Google Stadia takes over. You won't even have backups.
also it's local multiplayer, has only co-op (no deathmatch for some reason), and the Unity is a shell for a wad baked into the assets. so at least get the facts right so you can shit on beth where necessary, like their Quakecon sales on the Humble Store not going to charity and instead 100% to themselves
Nathan Taylor
It's for 3, too.
Christopher Flores
Is the doom3 the shitty BFG edition or the good one?
Camden Garcia
>WE'RE FIXING IT ITS OKAY TO FUCK YOU OVER No it's not, they only started 'fixing' it because people started shitting on them for it. They were hoping no one noticed. Also
>has only co-op The previous versions had full online multiplayer. This is objectively a downgrade
Julian Russell
BFG Edition with no multiplayer.
Aaron Torres
BFG of course. no multiplayer, be sure to buy it anyway and defend us on you rtwitter accounts.
Noah Thomas
>bethesda being bethesda >people act surprised
Isaac Campbell
Doom WADs are literally free. Why buy any of these ports lol
Jeremiah Barnes
I'm not debating that. With a lack of No Rest For The Living and Final Doom, and the fact that the ports are genuinely pretty shoddy even compared to the previous ones, they're not really something one should go out of their way to buy. But if you're going to be mad, at least know the facts instead of spreading around false info.
Wyatt Gray
Fucking trash
Luis Sanchez
Fair enough They're free for us, because we know better. You know who it's not free for? The target demographic of the switch.
Robert Rodriguez
>mad'n'petty about buying a demake of a 30yo game on a console for toddlers
Don't listen to the other guy. Doom 3 port is good. BFG version, has expansions, 1080p docked and runs at 60fps although the framerate sometimes lowers to 40. Doesn't require being signed-in, although it asks, but you can close it out.
DOOM 1 and 2 ports are making the sign-in optional in an update, and OP's complaint wasn't intentional and it's getting fixed.
DOOM 1 and 2 ports are still bad though. They didn't raise the frame rate to 60, music is slower for some reason, controls feel off, etc.
hey, Doom PSX was a neat way to play the game now we just got a mod for that
Austin Hernandez
It's an overall better version, but I would agree that I would prefer the option to go back on a few of the changes.
Connor Hernandez
They said it wasn't intentional, but they are clearly lying.
Ethan Hernandez
It's easy to install and play with minimal configuration, but as someone that played the original 3 for both vanilla and mods a fair few times, it's still jarring. I just wish someone could mod in the original D3's ultra textures to get rid of that awful compression in BFG, and fix the lighting issues.
Juan Hall
Are console-bros finally waking up? I never understood how they gave up their freedoms and free online just like that without even a hint of resistance.
Cooper Stewart
I just want to throw $5 @ Doom, and play it on my TV, but the ports aren't even good. Fucking pathetic.
is this screenshots only, or what? because not a single piece of footage anywhere i've seen shows anything like this, and it feels like a photoshop to capitalize on the anger train
Caleb Parker
Its objectively worse The only thing that is "debatabe" is the flashlight debatable because its a casualization and casuals will stand by anything that makes a game easier You NEVER, not even ONCE need the flashlight in vanilla doom if you are in an intense fight, when you fight, you can see everything you need to see flashlight is reserved for exploration for resorces and the ocassional hidden zombie Also, the BFG edition all but removes darkness and shadows, everything is bright as fuck and the enviroments look worse, the atmosphere is all fucked up Also encounters have been outright REMOVED, enemies that were there in the OG doom3 are not there in the BFG edition on the same difficulties, either to remove jumpscares (which are not obnoxious in vanilla doom 3 despite what meme reviewers say) or to make gunfights EASIER On the topic of difficulty, BFG is LAUGHABLY easier than the original, on the same difficulty there you pick up TWICE the ammount of ammo and health than in vanilla doom 3, and as i said earlier, the enemy count is lower Seriously, playing doom 3 on marine is like a tighly crafted survival horror experience, and BFG shits all over that The game even suffers from glitches that were not even in the game at first, ranging from audio to visual, to even physics There is not ONE single texture on BFG that is higher resolution than in vanilla, some are even LOWER RESOLUTION
I fucking hate the bfg edition so much, literally the only thing it does better is the PDA looks nicer
Logan Hall
>>Also encounters have been outright REMOVED, enemies that were there in the OG doom3 are not there in the BFG edition on the same difficulties, either to remove jumpscares (which are not obnoxious in vanilla doom 3 despite what meme reviewers say) or to make gunfights EASIER don't attribute to malice, what could easily be attributed to incompetence. it's not that they removed fights, it's that they fucked up the scripting in the engine update so a number of enemies simply don't trigger right, and in some cases even trigger earlier than intended
We now live in an age where a Zoomer may not even own a computer. Or know what Dos is. Or know how to use Dosbox Or even have a device capable of using Dosbox
Or, and the worst part, even have a device which can download the Dos version of Doom to use in a sourceport which works on their platform of choice. If they understand what all of those things are.
That's the world, now
Caleb Evans

Samuel Diaz
Don't give these fucking faggots your money. Definitive versions of these games can be pirated for free. I've still got pc hard copies of them anyway.
Lincoln Howard
There is a lot of younger people who think this is the first time Doom has been on a portable, even though back in 2006 many people played it back on their hacked PSP's perfectly fine
Makes me feel older
Nathaniel Roberts
i think the worst offence is when they play brutal doom and think they know everything about doom that it is to know
>doom for gba released, hyped, play it >further nerfed jaguar derivative, meh >wait for A DS version that runs better and has touch controls, doesn't come >same for 3DS >now it finally comes for a "portable" nintendo console but the property has passed hands to (((zenimax))) since and they STILL fuck it up royally despite switch being about 1,000,000 times more powerful than the typical PC doom was originally made for i just wanted a portable doom with good controls bros
Why the fuck would you buy it on steam when you can get it for free?
Zachary Rivera

Samuel Hall
It's only on the screenshots on the eshop page, not in the actual game. I checked myself and it was actually there on the eshop.

Juan Reyes
I emulated the GBA version of DOOM on a PSP years ago but I'm still very tempted by portable DOOM3
Joseph Perez
What's wrong with the BFG edition? I've only ever played the original on Xbox.
It's just so strange to me. Why did they even bother throwing this shitty Unity port together? More effort for an inferior version of a game that anyone who's interested already had access to.
It’s gonna be next gen so I’m honestly excited for them to try to push gamebryo on PS5. Just keep piling graphics on top of the creation engine and don’t worry about all the breaking.
Nicholas White
so that they could implement DRM into it because i don't think the original version would be able to have a bethesdanet login forced into it.
Owen Turner

Luis Campbell
Don't worry, they'll forcefully 'update' those versions too eventually.
Andrew Torres
Because just like with the daily news, or the national factors, or international shit, most people don't stay informed about problems and simply don't get why there's bigger problems or underlying issues.
I don't understand why would someone want to buy OG Doom for consoles, just fucking get it for PC, better controls+ source ports+ billions of mods, even a fucking shitty laptop from two ice ages ago can run it. Why would you waste your money and time for a old rusty used picture of a pornstar with so many cumstains on it to make it impossible to see anything
>Sourceports exist and they can do nothing about them whatsoever On a scale of 1 to 10, how much does GZDoom make the suits at Bethesda/Zenimax seethe?
Caleb Nelson
Or hell get a Homebrew version if you really want it on console. You can play custom wads on those.
Gabriel Bailey
I guess it depends on your tolerance for bullshit. I roll my eyes whenever I hear anyone talk about Blizzard being dead "now." Like nigger, they've been dead for over a decade. They died the moment they merged with Activision. If Diablo 3 didn't make it obvious you're dumb or underage.

These ports weren't made for you. You can literally go to /vr/ this instant and download Doom and it's expansions and have the game running in about 10 minutes. These ports were made for knuckle-scrapers who barely know their way around a computer, who just want to sit their fat ass on the toilet and play with shit controls.

Actually, during the Doom deathmatch tournament at Quakecon the other day, one of t he announcers mentioned it would be neat to see a Quake Champions Doom Edition tournament. The other announcer told him to be careful even mentioning QCDE, as it's apparently a "hot potato."
Christopher Walker
You faggots ask this exact fucking question every fucking thread. LURK MORE BEFORE POSTING
Ryder Jones
This is actually supposedly a decent port for what it is as well. Its amazing that the GBA can even run this game playable at all. It comes at the cost of resolution though.
I mean the proper version of doom, though the gba port was cool back in the day
Dominic Ortiz
I guess that must be a 10.

So some programmer accidentally typed up a message saying "A Bethesda.net account is required to play this title" even though you would not use the word 'required' for an optional feature? And then on top of that they they didn't boot the game up and test it even once, which would have revealed this "mistake"?
Man, why are normalfags so easily taken in by blatant damage control? Do they genuinely lack the capacity for analytical thought? Maybe the NPC meme wasn't too far off the mark

And start is a good start. Doom 1 and 2 are the definition of doom's fast and chaotic (but somehow terrifying) nature, and are always a blast to go through. Doom 3, while still good on its own, is much slower and much closer to a horror survival game a la resident evil (just not 3rd person) Doom 64 is pretty underrated, and is all but confirmed if you want to wait for that. Doom 2016 is much different from any other doom game but somehow the perfect evolution doom could've taken. tl;dr: No doom game is a bad starting point, just depends what you're looking for mainly. Also mods. Lots and lots of mods.

Were it so easy. I didn't use a loader back then out of bad early habits, so I have like 300 wads and pk3s and shit in the same base folder as my GZDoom because I dragged and dropped. There's a reason why I want to clean up.
Hunter Garcia
holy shit even running trough a dosbox emulator on your phone is a better option than this because atleast you can still instal custom wads
Zdoom wars when it was still alive on doomseeker, but my favorite solo wad that i've been playing is the golden souls 1.

Back to Saturn X is absolute kino.
Owen Ramirez
Try pressing "no" genius.
Isaiah Perry
if i already own em i'm good right?
Aaron Watson
Whatever, I'm going back to GZDoom.
Ryan Russell
It's disappointing that a 15 year old game is getting frame-rate drops on the Switch. However, the PS3 version ran at 720p with frame-rate drops and the Switch version runs at 1080p with frame-rate drops, which is consistent with how most PS3 games run on the Switch. Downloading it now since I never played the expansion on the PC, it should be a cool a handheld experience for $10.
Parker Young
It's weird though. The framerate isn't tanking during high enemy count/explosion moments. You'll just get the odd section of completely empty room that'll dip the framerate despite nothing happening.
Ian Rogers
I hope not. Bethesda needs to go down.
Owen Collins
I just realized I still don't have Doom on Steam. Is the Steam version fucked or is it legit?
It's legit but it's in Dosbox, the best experience you can ask for is to put it in a sourceport like GZDoom.

The steam releases are unchanged I believe. That being said, don't play it in the dosbox setup steam gives you. Never use dosbox, just grab gzdoom where you can customize it to your liking (aiming reticles, ability to look up/down, etc etc) Even if they were changed, all you need are the .wads for gzdoom to work anyways so.
Nolan Lewis
Or if you want nostalgia without the dosbox jank, throw it in chocolate doom or prboom.
David Martin
>most official holy shit you're a giant cuck for thinking like this Carmack literally said he doesn't care if you just get the WADs for free from somewhere
>once again the version that's not sold, but provided for free is better and has a ton of extra features For fuck's sake gaming industry, step it up. I keep trying to justify using digital platforms, specially because of the Cloud Save functions, but it keeps getting harder and harder. I guess I'll just fucking set a cloud saving software myself.
If Bethesda ever got actually close to going under, ID would be sold in a heartbeat since it’s actually worth something.
Blake Stewart
The problem with sourceports like GZDoom and Chocolate Doom is that the Doom engine is released under GPL, which means any future work done on it must also provide its source code in the same fashion that it was provided to the developers. A share-and-let-share situation.
All of the unity engine and dosbox shit is entirely done for publishers backflip over that requirement so they don't have to release anything open-source.

Sebastian Baker
Every post are console fucks seething and people asking why. No one is actually answering any questions.
Aaron Myers
At least you can still hook up a mouse to that thing.
Ryder Nelson
Sunlust
Camden Butler
What would be the purpose of using a mouse in Doom?
Dylan Harris
I like project MSX.
Nolan Bailey

Joshua Fisher
I have the steam version of doom 1 and 2 from a few years ago how are they
Juan Diaz
Does Doomseeker multiplayer still work?
Eli Sanchez
Literally the original games on dosbox, just grab the wads and put them in a source port.
Hudson Johnson
Wait shit I bought Doom Classic Complete on the PS3 some years ago? That's gone?
Tyler Rodriguez
For now. Bethesda says it was a "mistake" and are working on getting it back up on the store.
It was down for several hours yesterday but was brought back up last night. Dunno about Xbox yet.
Cameron Phillips
The 360 version went down. The PS3 version never did.
Connor Edwards
>steam and gog are also unaffected So it was only xbox? wat
Hunter Wright
>people were dumb for expecting something other than a Co-Op Loot Shooter. Excuse me, but what kind of retard buys a co-op Wolfenstein game co-developed by Arkane and then complaints that it's a co-op Wolfenstein game co-developed by Arkane? Do these people also buy Hitman games and then lose their shit because you play the same 5 levels over and over?
Jordan Russell
sell things to college kids and younger because they are brain dead. they'll eventually figure it out and by then it'll be to late, the market is cornered
William Ramirez
idk but these companies need to fall, Its not getting better
Easton Nelson
this. its disgusting
Jaxson Rodriguez
>Fallout 76 >Wolfenstein Youngblood >Shitty DOOM ports I really hope Eternal and Elder Scrolls VI end up being good.
Jonathan Ross
Eternal may be alright but I have no idea what the fuck you're expecting from Elder Scrolls after FO4 and Skyrim.
