MIDIocrites Posted May 5, 2016 Linguica said:Come on, there is a 0% chance that id Software made a calculated decision to have the classic-Doom easter eggs purposely look worse in order to maximize the difference with Doom 2016's graphics. I'll admit, it's much more likely that the finessing-in of the classic Doom content was simply rushed, especially given the texture problems. If the full levels turn out to have the same issue, or if the lighting gets addressed in a patch, then never mind, but in the meantime I think it's at least a little more plausible than zero percent. In the example we've seen from the foundry level, the placement of the secret (in an area of lower lighting) seems to have been played for effect, and fidelity aside, flat lighting makes sense toward getting the novelty across, especially to a player unfamiliar with the Doom 1 and 2, alongside the drop in texture resolution, the way-simplified level geometry, the sudden absence of ambient particle effects, etc. I don't like debating authorial/developer intent, and I'm not all that bugged about the Easter egg issues. I'm just surprised that possibility hadn't occurred to anyone else. Seemed reasonable to me. 0 Share this post Link to post

VGamingJunkie Posted May 5, 2016 That's just one room, though, this is going to be entire levels completely botched. No, it's not because they're different, it's because they were made worse. 0 Share this post Link to post

VGamingJunkie Posted May 13, 2016 Sorry to bump up the thread but it's official. They've got entire Doom levels without any lighting whatsoever. Also, some of these texture misalignment are just ridiculous, like they just didn't care. 0 Share this post Link to post
Tritnew Posted May 13, 2016 At this point I really don't give a shit at all, just like they didn't give a shit about the Classic DOOM levels. If It was made at the last minute, It was made at the last minute. If they care enough to fix It In a next update, they can. 0 Share this post Link to post
VGamingJunkie Posted May 13, 2016 Just giving my opinion. Why bother making this if they didn't care? They could have left it out and nobody would have said a single thing about it because they wouldn't have known what they missed. Instead, they give us a half-assed slap to the face. Maybe they'll fix it in an update, who knows. 0 Share this post Link to post

I noticed they even flipped the switch texture at 2:45. The part of the switch you pull should be to the right of the buttons, not to the left! lol :-P 0 Share this post Link to post

At least they could've done x/y sprite billboarding so the items don't look like paper when you look down. Also, what's with there being one enemy to replace all the former humans? There was a nice mix of pistol and shotgunners in the original. 0 Share this post Link to post
Silverforte Posted May 13, 2016 Yeah some of that does look pretty bad, eh, nothing we can really do right now. Maybe send in some complaints and maybe they will fix it in the future, I dunno. 0 Share this post Link to post

Maybe they dumped so much effort into the actual game, when it came time to do the Easter Eggs they were so exhausted they just half-assed it, LOL. 0 Share this post Link to post
VGamingJunkie Posted May 13, 2016 Also, what's with the scaling? Doom Guy looks way taller than he needs to be, unless they're saying the original Doom Guy was just short. He's practically bumping into ceilings. 0 Share this post Link to post
