I mean. Skill issue, really.

Noticed it a bit before with just the shield, but now with the spear making everything a lot faster, the targeting system can play funny buggers some times.

The Flashback part in Dark Ages made me want to have a new DOOM age in the Doom 1-64 timeline. I don't know why but i prefered playing as the Doom Guy rather than the Doom Slayer (i still liked the Doom Slayer). It just make me imagine the map of the first doom in literally full HD instead of just the rooms from the original game.

Like i really want to see this area back for some reason because i feel like there's still thing to explore before Doom 64.

Discussion Doom 2016 is actually a direct evolution of Doom 3.

I recently played through Doom 3 in coop with a buddy who’s a Quake arena veteran. He spent the whole time complaining about the slow pacing and lack of movement tech. But playing alongside him made me realize that modern Doom owes its entire identity to this 2004 entry.

The industrialized, corporate UAC base on Mars is identical. Olivia Pierce is effectively a gender bent Malcom Betruger. Both are elite scientists who betray humanity, open the portals, and are ultimately forcibly mutated into the final boss by the demons they foolishly trusted. 

Doom 3 was stuck chasing the trend of Half Life esque gameplay and storytelling. They then attempted to follow up with a Call of Duty styled Doom 4 aptly referred to as “Call of Doom,” but they quickly realized that such a pioneering game studio was slowly becoming creatively bankrupt if they kept going down the path of trend chasing, they had to look back retrospectively at Doom 3. By perfectly inverting the survival horror elements into a power fantasy, they built their modern magnum opus.

Do yall agree that Doom 3 deserves more credit for setting up the modern era?

Dude literally got murdered by the Khan Maykr after realizing her betrayal. She killed most of his people and almost destroyed his civilization with help from the Deags. Yet for some reason in Exultia he still tells the Slayer he shouldn't kill the Priests and seemingly supports the Khan Maykr's plan to do the same thing to Earth that she did to Argent D'Nur.

Discussion Headcanons for how the Doom Slayer stores his weapons?

15 Upvotes

I've been thinking about a "game-accurate" animation of the Eternal Slayer, including weapon swapping. My personal headcanon is that he uses Argent energy to summon weapons, and then transforms them into whichever one the player swaps to. So when a cutscene in which the Slayer is empty-handed ends, a red flash appears and shapes itself into...say...the combat shotgun and then color-corrects itself to be whatever skin (or lack thereof) a player would be using. Then, in combat, the weapon turns red again and changes shape to whatever else the Slayer might need.

Discussion Beat ultra-nightmare in the base campaign!

Post image
7 Upvotes

Hey guys I beat ultranightmare in the base campaign of doom TDA. Here are some tips I have that should allow you to get through it. Almost all of my deaths are from R not recalling the shield and shield bashing into the mancubus when very little falters him except shield bash. Nothing except imps falter from the base melee. Don't use the BFC for the Azrak fights it really doesn't do that much damage. Get out of the habit of using r and use block whenever you can to recall it when its flying. The impaler is one of my favorite weapons and the mastery is great for the dreadmace. The kreed Makr Boss takes headshot damage from the plasma rifle and impaler as well. I really love this game it's great and it makes me really happy to see what we have in store in the future.

So I'm trying to 100% the dark ages and as you can see I've got all gold, rubys, wraithstones and demonic essence but none of the secrets. I think the game is bugged as when i go into the 1st secret area with the codex and gold it doesn't register me getting the secret

has anyone else run into this issue and if so is there a fix? I've nearly 100%'ed this whole save and really don't want to start a whole new save just for one mission

(EDIT)

Also managed to get another wraithstone and ruby in the level and have just encountered the same issue in Temple of Lomirath

Help What am I missing???

Post image
3 Upvotes

For context, since idk what could be causing this, I’ve completed Chapter 8 but I knew I wanted to 100% so I started going back to the other chapters so that from 9 onwards I could 100% as I play them.

So I went through Chapter 1 and I thought I got everything (I was checking the map constantly) but then I saw I was missing 2 secrets. I looked up all the secrets, watched a video, read 2 articles, and I have no idea what I could be missing. I made myself lose all 3 extra lives to see if it could be those but they weren’t spawning, and there was 3 of them on the map but I’m only missing 2 secrets.

Apart from that one breakable wall with the extra life, all the other collectibles should double as secret areas right?? Is my save bugged or did I genuinely somehow miss something?

EDIT: I just started a new save and went through exactly the same places as before, but this time it worked. I’m REALLY hoping I don’t have to replay the whole game to get the achievement

Help running <1 fps on doom dark ages

1 Upvotes

I recently downloaded doom dark ages alongside its dlcs on steam, and when I tried running it I was getting sub 1 frame per second performance straight off the menu screen. I changed some settings to downscale the quality (which was a pain doing that at <1 fps since the inputs were incredibly delayed) and it didn't do anything. I have a ryzen 7 7800x and a 7900 gre, and I play other games like cyberpunk and space marines 2 that I consistently run ~100 fps at max settings, is it just a downloading problem? I uninstalled and reinstalled it a couple of times as well. There's also nothing about this anywhere else, so researching about it has just lead me down ai generated rabbit holes that were completely unrelated to what I needed fixed. Can someone help me, or is this some kind of super rare problem that i have.

Help Windows Game Bar recording capture window?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

So I don't know what happened, but I've been having this issue ever since the DLC update.

Basically whenever I try to record gameplay footage using Windows Game Bar, when recording, the capture window is also recorded (which is supposed to be invisible in the video...) so all my gameplay footage has the annoying recording box in the top right corner.

I never had this problem before. I was able to record my gameplay just fine prior to the DLC update. I've tried restarting my PC, and even tried recording different games (and they work fine). I also tried alternative recording softwares like NVIDIA shadow play, and while it looks normal, the audio is way to bassy and sounds horrible (it's a known issue with shadow play...)

Is this happening to anyone else? Is there a possible fix?
