Official Doom 3 easter egg thread

Recommended Posts

The PDA for the code to the Compat Prep Room is found after the attack starts, this opens the door all ok, but only after the attack.

In terms of before the attack it does not work, but there must be a code that opens it? Although if you noclip in, the guy there has no speech responses which implies door is meant to remain locked. Got to the point of <damit must be a code> I tried every possible 3 digit combination! but no joy .... another poster mentioned the beeps in-that the door will beep after you enter 9 digits, thereby implying its a 9 digit code, but found this was more a timing thing ...

Anyway has anyone had any joy getting in there before the attack legit wise??????

On the passenger list (the other console near the dude that gives the writeup on you if you look over his shoulder), look at the names. Jacob Kruse is the name of our very own Shaviro!!

I couldn't find this Easter Egg posted elsewhere in here, so I hope its not a repeat.

There's a UAC Today magazine in Alpha Labs Sector 2 Engineering Security and a couple of later spots in the game whose cover has an image of a Red Swingline stapler and the tag line "Who Took My Stapler".

That's a reference to the movie "Office Space" (1999) by Mike Judd of Beavis & Butthead and King of the Hill fame, where the character Milton Waddams has an obsession for his Red Swingline stapler. When his boss Bill Lumbergh confiscates it, Milton burns the company Initech to the ground.

Death to TPS reports. All power to the Cube Dwellers

Yeah 729 to be exact ... no 0 ... got to that god-damit point where you would do 10000 combinations just to figure it out :)

1 - The most remarkable texture recreation in my opinon are the computer displays of COMPUTE1-3 and COMTALL. They look almost like their original. I think you mostly find them in the delta labs.


2 - The chainsaw boxes in the one level have the name "beavertooth" on them. This is the real name of the chainsaw that id scanned in as a model for the original chainsaw in Doom.

Hehe..remember Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis? I never figured out the subtle hints for the stone wheels, so I would also try 1000s of combinations. And I even included the postions in between the actual symbols, just to make sure I don´t miss the correct one :-)

I also spotted a reference to the TV show, The Office, maybe some disgruntled ID employees where fed up at spending so long in an office and decided to strike back!...or not

Working late nights in an office for four years straight on one game... I think they'd be just a TINY bit fed up. ;)
