Doom III is out there! W00T!


Recommended Posts

I just picked up my copy from my local Gamestop this morning, and Im running just fine on Ultra Detail at 1024x768 (highest res my flat pannel goes). My system specs are:

Windows XP Professional SP1

AMD Athlon XP 3000+

512 MB of Ram

Saphire ATI RADEON 9600 256mb

So anyone with simular specs should be just fine. It's nothing to really worry about :)

I was just about to ask on here if anyone has tried GameStop or EB yet. Do you know if every GameStop is selling Doom 3 today or is it just a fluke that yours is selling it? Perhaps we should start a where you purchased it thread where people can state the store and the city they got it from.

I had a Reservation placed for the game and my Gamestop decided to give it out a day early to thoes who reserved it.

my friend, Mr.Malpractice in COH told his group that he was loggin so he could come over and play D3, a member of his group replied in global chat along the lines of " he has doom 3 ", and people started flooding the chat channel, and messaging him like mad. he just told peopel to coem to neowin, lol

prepare a new flood of viewers

i know u guys will think im talking bs...

i have just spent 2 hours playing it at 1024x748 ULTRA detail with all advanced stuff turned on....on my GF4 ti4600 and got fps between 8 and 35 and it was still fun to play :o

anyone else getting just a blank screen when trying to view screenshots? :crazy:

edit: here's a pic with prntscrn showing the fps in moderate action...on ultra detail on a 4600...

to play on ultra mode (to notice any benefit that is) you need a 512mb card which isnt released yet... so right now, there is no difference b/c high and ultra... just play on high.

and yes, ultra has no compression at all which is why you need a 512 card

from what i understand / heard, ATI and NVidia's next product refresh are goign to be 512 cards.

Anyone Heard of the Doom3 Bloopers Mod :D ?

The DOOM 3 Blooper mod team sent us word that they have begun work on their new mod which will consist of laughs, giggles and chuckles instead of the fear and pants filling goodness of the real DOOM 3. "The D3 Bloopers will rebuild the existing single player story of Doom 3 and infuse a cackling plethora of gags and "accidents" along the way. Monsters will drop their weapons, forget their lines and scamper off yipping all the way. Characters will be slaughtered in mid sentence, lights will come on during spooky parts of the game and a bunch of other Loki-inspired riches await!" Sounds interesting to say the least. Head on over to the D3 Blooper page and give Dick Clark a smack if you see him hanging around looking for work.

thats pretty LOL =D
