to see these things that are like top halves of babies with bottom halves

of flies. They fly at you and cry. It's the most fucked up thing I've ever

seen in a video game, and it's even worse when you blow its face off with

a shotgun.

 

 

Pick this up before it's banned, christ. Haven't gotten to that part yet, I doubt it will offend me considering all the dead baby jokes I've got.

 

If anyone played the first Doom when it came out, do you think Doom 3 is comparable in terms of shock/scary/groundbreaking? I think it is definitly as scary, but I am not as shocked as I was when Doom came out and I had never seen anything like it before. Wolfenstein may have done it first but it was not as bluntly horror as Doom.

 

The way this engine is working seems to be groundbreaking, too. I haven't tried multiplayer, yet, but the capabilities of the engine seem to be enormous. Remember that iD sells out it's engines to other companies to make games. To list some of the games that ran off the original Quake engine: Daikatana, Sin, Alice, I believe Kingpin, Anachronix and Half-Life to name a few. All of these engines were modified, Half-Life in particular modified the Quake engine pretty much beyond recognition (if I'm wrong about Half-Life, then I may be thinking about how they originally used the Quake engine before they completely scrapped the game they had and built what we play now. It's possible that it's running on a Quake2 engine.)

 

Now if a talented developer can get their hands on the liscense for the Doom 3 engine, by the time they get a game out perhaps the hardware standard will have caught up to the engine. It is an annoyence not to be able to run Doom 3 at a high framerate on my machine, even though it is a fairly high-end box. What makes it better is that John Carmack went all out in making this engine, knowing that it will be a standard for the next 3 years or so, and once the little hardware driver bugs get worked out it will be pretty much all that it was promised to be.

 

Of course, the Half-Life 2 engine might totally blow Doom 3 out of the water.

copy the cd key on there and change it on my game

 

 

no, its possible that your cd-key works, but I think iD put in another

cd rom confirm request when you open the multiplayer menu... in short,

the crack only covers single player. when the game gets patched the

new cracks will probably address that.

with out its key? damn this sucks...

Holy shit this game is long! I just beat it... it was great. Easily on my

top 5 of the best games I've ever played. Scary, fun, lengthy, etc.

 

 

I have so many screenshots. I don't have the motivation to post them

yet.

 

 

 

 

God that was so good.

I can understand now why you wanted to post those pictures, S@T@N. Here are some from the last couple of levels I've played, I'd estimate I am about halfway through the game. This game is a work of goddamn art, and hands down the scariest thing I have ever played. Hope this will not ruin the game for anyone who hasn't played yet.

Check out the awesome lighting/shadow effects.

One of the more unnerving parts of the game.

You just know the shit is going to hit the fan right here.

hahahahhaha!! that shit was hilarious

 

 

my experience wasn't full of screaming like a moron, more like constantly

being nervous. I'd say I got truly startled maybe 3 or 4 times, out of

sheer accident because I forgot to finish an enemy. Only one of the

spawns scared me, and that was because it was as I opened a door, and

it jumped at me.
