Fahim@_@ Posted May 29, 2014 Well, you know, the SNES version didn't have a save feature; and my first time Doom experience was on the SNES. I was in E3M2 and there was a power outage. Worst.Failure.Ever. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted May 29, 2014 ASD said:lmost forgot the BFG Edition, particularly on PS3; low look sensitivity (almost unplayabe), couldn't see anything in long distances, red screen lasts longer, crappy sounds and music and the censored wolf3d levels. Gave it a second chance recently and played through NRFTL on UV. Decent episode only made painful with the horrible controls and gameplay of the port. Not going to touch that garbage again. It pains me when people refer to this port as "accurate to vanilla", it makes vanilla DOS Doom seem like Zandrodamex 3.0 - The music really blows in this version, it's slowed down and uses terrible instrument choices, the control is (as mentioned) REALLY shit. Me and friends often play Doom Legacy splitscreen with 360 controllers, and it's way, WAY better than the awful tiny screens you get on the PS3/X360 version. I had this feeling that ID (Bethesda) was just trying to push old Doom even further into the shadows with that disgrace. Also, what's up with the pills replacing the red cross on medikits/stimpaks? Was that some retarded attempt at censorship? IN A GAME FULL OF UPSIDE DOWN CROSSES?? 0 Share this post Link to post

That could (but might not) be related to the actual real life red cross, which a lot of companies claim to be EXTREME in their protection of the 'red cross' logo. Looking at how hard Zenimax / Bethesda focuses on copyrights this might have been done 'to be on the safe side'. Joke : So now i suggest calling Nintendo and claim it are doctor Mario pills. edit : added quote. 0 Share this post Link to post

Ahhhhh, that makes sense. ZeniMax/Bethesda are sleek as sharks when it comes to copyright stuff. 0 Share this post Link to post

Linkrulezall Posted May 29, 2014 Trying to play map UAC15 from that certain infamous wad that I probably shouldn't name on a server with people who didn't know what they were doing and set off every. single. trap. It got downright unplayable. 0 Share this post Link to post
Darch Posted May 29, 2014 My first encounter with the Mastermind was quite frustrating. I was wondering what they would come up with after fighting the Cyberdemon, so when I reached E3M8 I was expecting the incredible ultimate final Doom boss. I could hear it, so I shot some BFG blasts from distance before getting closer. Well, I didn't had the opportunity. It died. I didn't even see it (resolution was much lower, back then). Beat the game. Congratulations. The End. 0 Share this post Link to post

This is funny because I liked all those things. OTOH I agree totally with scifista42. I don't remember what the first Terrywad I played was, but I think that has to take the cake as worst Doom experience. 0 Share this post Link to post

A great victory of detail over sanity. lol. indeed. i had played the first gothic dm with the other guys who used to host weekend lans back then, and we had fun with some maps, so we thought "gothic inside" was a sign of quality... well, we had no idea how many sectors one can cram into one room. until that thing. one couldn't even walk in a straight line without the viewport bobbing like crazy because even the floors had tiny sectors of varying height. not to mention various nooks and rims that caught a player at every step. that wad was a superbly polished turd. 0 Share this post Link to post
