Doom 3

[Zach]

Playing it right now.

SHould have a review done for HPH in a few days.. sweet :ph34r:

[Lefteris_D]

Can you give us some hardware specs about your system?

[onewecallgod]

a friend of has:
XP Tbred 1800+ @ 2.5ghz
9700pro @ 412/340

and he runs it with 4x AA 1024x[whatever the hell this part is] with full detail. he gets around 40-50fps

Neco, what graphics settings you running at?

[Zach]

1.7ghz on 180 FBS, 144 ram, 512MB. Ti 4200 (4400 speed). No AF, no AA. Optimal IQ settings.

800x600 and game autodetects.

It can get choppy real fast.

You need a beast to play it smooth. End of story.

Im downloading it as we speak......The beta was pretty scary with all the dark corners and all......Something u dont wanna play at night ehhh.

[ShadowWarrior]

You guys know if the retail version runs through an ATI Radeon 9200SE 256MB card? It's one of those cheaper ones. I know I know, why didn't I get a 9800XT, well, they're expensive, and I rather upgrade my RAM than anything... 8]

[onewecallgod]

it will probably run fine without any AA/AF and low detail and low resolution

Fucker it was 3am and I had the LIGHTS OUT

:ph34r:


It will also run balls on a 9200.. the extra video ram may help slightly tho

MAn I just played it this morning....Pretty good game...lots of cool details freaky things poping outta everywhere.....plus the storyline at the moment is pretty good :)

those hellknights just scare the shit out of me

[Guitar Gamer]

So would you all say it's worth buying? Speaking from the perspective of someone who doesn't play too many shoot-em-up games.

[shadowwoelf]

man that game rocks i love the suspense they really game far in makeing the game

[shadowwoelf]

came* srry i am not that good of a typer when i am tyoeing fast

[Splize]

<_< :angry: Man this game is pissing me off...the first time i played it it went smooth now its lagging always...wtf

[Edea]

I&#39;m going to buy it shortly. I&#39;m really anxious to play it and I hope it&#39;s as good and scary as everyone let&#39;s on. :ph34r:

The game plays pretty good on my old ass pc.
I have athlon 1.1ghz
512 sdram at 100mhz
and an ati 9000pro 128mb

it runs smooth as sil at 1024x768 at low settings.
it still looks amazing at low settings.

here&#39;s a trick to improving your framerate.

[ShadowWarrior]

Hold on a sec... I just saw and played it at a friend&#39;s house. For &#036;60, it&#39;s really not worth it. Everything is indoors&#39;, and there are too few enemies. The lighting is very dark and you&#39;ll need to get the patch to get the flashlight gun... Good thing I didn&#39;t waste my money on it...

HOPEFULLY, Half Life 2 won&#39;t be disappointing...

[Splize]

U moron Its inside cuz ur on mars

[ShadowWarrior]

Did you just call me a moron because I think Doom 3 sucks? That&#39;s okay... After Pam, you are all good to me... 8]

Anyway, at least in Doom 3, they can add a stage where you&#39;re out strolling around in a space suit or something in a canyon of some sort to reach some sort of generator, etc, etc. Eg: in KotOR when you had to walk around on the ocean floor to find some injector thingy.

I mean, they could have used some further imagination. I was hoping to see something more, experience something more than solely stunning graphics.

[Lefteris_D]

Well they could have added more outdoors stages. Heck, we know they had plenty of time to do it.

[Zach]

There were parts where you were outdoors.

In a suit no less


required to pick up O2 canisters no less
