Fairly terrible cinematic trailer released:

Doom guy runs like a wounded gorilla. 

Also, in this video the D4's doomguy is really recognizable. I don't know if they changed something in the model, but now it does look faithful to the classic Doomguy.

The yellow filter also seems to be gone, which is great. 

Not music, just somebody screaming to be heard over awful guitar noise.

The multiplayer looks like they are catering to the kindergarten set.

I honestly haven't seen anything yet that makes me want to buy. 

To be honest though, I'm just a grumpy old man.

Not at all. I was very much giving this game the benefit of the doubt, but the complete and total saturation of multiplayer wank in the marketing strategy is making me very suspicious.

You, me and pretty much everyone else at this place! Func really is the epicenter of all things grumpy, cantankerous and Quake rolled into one!

New Doom Trailer Thoughts 

Quality 

Aside from the goofy mo-cap and the metal-by-numbers soundtrack it's pretty alright. The visual fidelity of these cinematics is always neat to see.

Also, Doomguy isn't going to live very long if he keeps running directly into the business end of the cyberdemon's rocket launcher. 

there is no feel of heavy armor weight, or even his own body weight, for that matter, in run animations. 

I think nobody makes cinematics without mo-cap these days. 

1. there's multiplayer only
2. console is disabled
3. can't just open map and walk to check amazing gfx
4. didn't actually play anything since i get this - "Unable to reach dedicated servers endpoint."
5. according to nerdrage on forums you can't change fov, so people get sick ;)
6. happy i didn't preorder this so far 

the low fov gave me a pretty bangin headache after a couple hours. the multiplayer is pretty fun, the controls are nice, it runs great and is pretty. overall, it just feels familiar and just kinda more of the same. I'm really only here for the singleplayer. 

but does this run sequence look captured?

Ahhhhhhhhh...April 1st, nice on Von


...I wish....

Vondur, try a VPN. russia->ireland->doom works for me.

Movement is like in unreal series, slow and no bunny-hoping.
No dash jumps tho.
Double jump is actually useful and helps to reach some places.
The game has XP like in battlefield to open new powerups (like throwable stuff, teleporters, revealing stats on enemies), weapons, player skins.

Direct RL hit takes 55 hp -> no spawnfrags :(.
Weapons have 2nd fire mode, for example LG has area damage in alt fire, for RL it explodes rocket. 

The game has XP like in battlefield

OK I was on the fence for the longest time but fuck this game. 

it sounds worse and worse with each new bits of info 

Marine armor feels like plastic. Armor colors are horrific and ugly. Bright pinks and whites and so on.

After playing so much Blops3, the double jump feels awkward and clunky. Movement is SO SLOW.

Demons are probably fun for the guy who gets it, but I never had fun fighting a Revenant.

Rocket launcher feels super weak. Maybe I'm just misremembering how a rocket launcher feels, though.

Armor is green, health is blue, maybe it's just me but I think I would have switched those around.

Maps are okay-to-pretty looking. Nothing really stood out about them.

I'm not saying it's bad, but I definitely don't see anything about it that gets me excited to play it, especially vs games like Battleborn or Overwatch. 

Green armor and blue health are the same colors used in classic Doom (blue potions, helmets with glowing green eyes).

I don't play multiplayer, so I don't care much about the bad multiplayer reviews.
