While some might argue that the PC version is somewhat superfluous when stacked up against eight years' worth of community-driven mods, on console the BFG Edition makes a lot more sense and in the hands of Carmack and company, the result is a game that's a cut above the typical HD remaster.įor a start, some thought has been given to the way in which Doom 3 will be played on console. It’s also incredibly close to launch so there’s nothing radical that iD Software can change now, but it will be interesting to see how the incorporate player feedback from here on out.ĭOOM is out on PC, Xbox One and PS4 next month.Doom 3: BFG Edition is best described as the net result of John Carmack and id Software taking on an HD remastering project, because this new release is effectively a 720p console revamp of a 2004 PC game originally designed with a 640x480 resolution in mind. Many don’t believe the game rekindles what made titles like Quake, Unreal Tournament and the original DOOM multiplayer so engaging, even if the only real modernization is starting loadouts. That’s if the game manages to overcome the overwhelmingly negative feedback it has received over the weekend. Master Race quip aside, this is good news for anyone planning on playing DOOM on PC, and an even bigger step forward for those hoping that it’s multiplayer will feature heavily in the competitive scene. Happy that we announced FPS unlock officially – code team been working hard on eradicating that for #PCMASTERRACE <3 The issue with the beta seems to have been caused by a limitation of the idTech engine powering the game, but iD Lead Renderer Programmer Tiago Sousa confirmed that the team had overcome it. DOOM will have an unlocked framerate on PC by the time it rolls around next month, supporting the increasingly popular 144Hz refresh rates amongst competitive shooter fans. One thing everyone (on PC at least) can agree on is that the game’s framerate cap isn’t acceptable.īut thankfully it’s only an issue with the beta.
Some don’t think it’s traditional DOOM, while others love the modernization on classic arena gameplay. The DOOM open beta has been extended a full 24 hours to give you a last chance to get in on some demonic multiplayer action before the game launches next month, and there’re unsurprisingly mixed options about it.
