rebb Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 Definitely great news . It seems id are so confident in their new engine, they fire up more projects on it - woohoo. Quote
firoso Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 what makes you so sure this is idtech5? Quote I'm in yur forumz,Makin' them frobbable.
SneaksieDave Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 Despite any naysaying which unfolds, I'm watching with anticipation. Quote
jdude Posted May 8, 2008 Author Report Posted May 8, 2008 what makes you so sure this is idtech5? Why would they use an older engine when they just made a newer one? Quote
Komag Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 I don't think anyone thinks they would use an older engine, but perhaps something other than idtech5. But I doubt it will be something different, most likely idtech5 Quote
Subjective Effect Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 Does this mean the D3 source is likely to be released sooner? Quote I want your brain... to make his heart... beat faster.
Vadrosaul Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 Great! Now the Dark Mod II has an engine in waiting Quote Loose BOWELS are the first sign of THE CHOLERA MORBUS!
oDDity Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 Well this is the way with big mods. They take so long the engine is already pretty much antiquated before it's ever released.

Subjective Effect Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 There is nothing wrong with this engine though. And will the entry level specs of PCs going ever upwards it will suit things better. Quote I want your brain... to make his heart... beat faster.
jdude Posted May 9, 2008 Author Report Posted May 9, 2008 The only problems with this engine are: Lack of gradient / alpha support with lighting | Lack of texture blend | light calculations VS performance | small physics issues Everything else is perfect :] Quote
7upMan Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 There are new Doom 4 artworks and (possibly) screenshots available. Enjoy! 1 Quote My Eigenvalue is bigger than your Eigenvalue.
7upMan Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 There are also a couple of pics that weren't on the allgamesbeta website. Please find them here. Enjoy anatomically correct models! 1 Quote My Eigenvalue is bigger than your Eigenvalue.
Bikerdude Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 Great! Now the Dark Mod II has an engine in waiting Heh, damn right! but by then we will have customized our branch of the tech4 engine code it may well be doom3.5. There are new Doom 4 artworks and (possibly) screenshots available. Enjoy! Now if we could have some of those textures and the soft lighting we would be set, some of those images are just shockingly stunning! Quote

Melan Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 Nice environmental shots, but they don't seem so advanced visually. Or have we reached a stage where improvements no longer seem striking? Hm. Quote Come the time of peril, did the ground gape, and did the dead rest unquiet 'gainst us.

Xarg Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 The first few pictures gave me a heavy Metro 2033 + Borderlands vibe. This is not a bad thing.

Tels Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 It's a shame that most of the environment will probably as static as in Rage. Looks pretty, but breaks down as soon as you fire a shot into something or throw a moveable around.

Bikerdude Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 Borderlands vibe. Ohh I never played this, how does it comepared to metro and stalker etc..? I assume its an oldish game so will be cheap enough etc.. Quote
GameDevGoro Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) Ohh I never played this, how does it comepared to metro and stalker etc..? I assume its an oldish game so will be cheap enough etc.. Short answer: It doesn't.Longer answer: I mean it's a game where you shoot stuff. Other than that, it doesn't feel like stalker or metro. Even remotely. It's more light-hearted and cartoony too, so it definitely doesn't have the same atmosphere. Regarding Doom4, however. I try not to get excited, I can't expect it to be anything short of an iD FPS, meaning it will be like RAGE was... Could be different. Odds are against.Not that I mind, I liked RAGE. But I'd much rather see a new Quake instead of a new Doom, seeing as how the original Doom idea doesn't hold up these days. Edited February 29, 2012 by GameDevGoro Quote
Nosslak Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 Ohh I never played this, how does it comepared to metro and stalker etc..? I assume its an oldish game so will be cheap enough etc..Make sure to co-op it with someone else too or it won't be fun at all. There's a sequel on the way too. Quote

But I'd much rather see a new Quake instead of a new Doom, seeing as how the original Doom idea doesn't hold up these days.I don't know. Precious few games in the last few years have tried the original Doom idea. I wouldn't mind to see a game that tried. Not even NecroVisioN, the most entertaining FPS I have played in a while could come close. Quote Come the time of peril, did the ground gape, and did the dead rest unquiet 'gainst us.
