Quake3World

Yeah, well, RTX is cute, for that 2% of people that own RTX enabled GPU's

Even with a 2080Ti I disable it since it's such a hamstring on performance

For now. Give it a few years and RTX will be ubiquitous, which will be about damn time. It feels like it was nearly a decade ago when I first saw those proof-of-concept videos showing off ray-tracing....

Control's incredible with it on though. I've not got a 2080Ti, just a 2080 Super, but it's brilliant with all the bells and whistles on at 1920x1080.
2560x1440 chugs a bit too much to be playable.

I totally forgot about that game - I got it free with the card and haven't even tried it. TY!

It's great Remedy stuff, with more than a dash of the SCP Foundation.

And dat Ashtray Maze...

Aww lame, my code expired.

I'm looking forward to listening to this episode on my next commute.

So... Who's getting this? All I want to know is if there's any dark souls style multiplayer where we can invade other peoples single player games... If so I'm gonna buy this tomorrow.

Haven't played it myself but Hugo Martin explains in the Joe Rogan podcast that this is indeed one of the features of the new game

Cool. Can't wait for this then, should be a fun time.

Its time bitches.

Holy shit the opening screen music alone mick fucking Gordon

I'm downloading through Steam as I'm writing this!

this game is even faster than doom2016 was.
Playing on UltraViolence (as you should) and the amount of pickups is very low. You really need to manage your resources by glorykilling and chainsawing your enemies.

Also you can shoot body parts off now. Very reminiscent to Quake2 with the pain skins.

So what's the deal with the multiplayer?

There is none.
That is, theres a dark souls type invading of other players' games for a quick skirmish. Havent tried it yet.

Before the break after which the guitars kick in, it reminds me a bit of Metroid Prime.
Also, the intro sequence just oozes Quake II.

edit:
I'm sorry, but that "rubber-stretchy, pop!" sound the cacodemon's eye makes when you pull it out in a glory kill is pushing it a bit on the cartoon scale :owned:

the whole game has a bit of a q2 vibe to it so far.

what about the sound when you launch a grenade into the caco's mouth? Also you get a grenadelauncher in map01.

The glory kill on a zombie when you punch its head between it's shoulder is so cute.
It feels much more arcade-ish than its 2016 predecessor. And you're right about the Quake 2 vibe. There's a bit of a militaristic undertone. Just look at the UI design. Looks like it's ripped straight out of Quake 4.

I think it's just the right amount of cartoon.

Oh shit it's the Pagans from Q3TA.
Also I'm reading some of the codec entries and the Doom1 end of episode story music starts playing.
Hype is real.

Yeah it's fucking excellent so far
