The big Doom 3 topic

Marcus · Post by **Marcus** » Sat Jul 17, 2004 6:51 pm

Well, it's almost here, the beautiful game of Doom 3. I'm getting it as soon as it's available, and I have high hopes for this title. According to the PC Gamer review, it's scary as hell.. I never played the leaked alpha, but people who did say that even that simple preview was awesome...

Any thoughts?

the best engine for AVP3.

Funny pic, it was photoshopped so don't freak out.

20 hours of "drop a load in your shorts" gameplay...all I have to say is

Scaryfun.

That's pretty funny, I saw the same pic somewhere, only with about 100 floppies, instead of those CD's.

=D

I heard about those PC Gamer scans, but never saw them.. Great pics. And yeah, this engine will probably be used for many games now..

Check out new footage of the game as well:

It's a 12 meg download, and I must say, I cannot wait for this game to come out.

The pics are awesome

Very funny...

btw. I have an old SNES here. ^^

I played the apha... almost scared the shit out of me.. but it plays a little lacky becaus i "only" have a 2500MHz machine. But the game will sure be a must-have

Geez, only 2-3 weeks to upgrade my machine...

Does anyone know more about the system requirements?

freakboy · Post by **freakboy** » Sun Jul 18, 2004 11:21 am

Low-End:
1.5GhzP4 or equivalent
512MB Ram
Geforce4 Ti 4800 or Radeon 9500

Mid-Range:
2.4GhzP4 or equivalent
1GB RAM
Geforce5950 or Radeon 9800 Pro/XT

High_End:
3.4GhzP4 or AMD equivalent
2GB RAM
GeForce 6800 Ultra or Radeon X800 XT PE.

these arent official, i think, so wait till it hits the shops and upgrade it then.

but iguess the game will run fine on my 1.6ghz, 256ram, gf2mx

doom3 alpha ran almost fine* on my pc so i expect retail version run even smoother. lets forget the requirements discussion, let talk about "what do we expect from the game"
i expect supersmart AI, that not just attacs, but makes desissions on your actions

Marcus · Post by **Marcus** » Sun Jul 18, 2004 12:16 pm

Me too.. Funny that the review never mentioned AI..

I expect lots of moments where your running backwards through tight corridors while watching a big ass drooling demon jumping from wall to wall, making terrible sounds and shaking the ground..

The alpha runs fine on mine to ive got AMD 1800/GF 2MX/256 SD but the High-end can be true i gues...
