Grimm Posted June 15, 2003 Does anyone know what the story was behind the lowering swastika in E1M4? Was it a Easter Egg for Wolfenstein or something? I doubt they wouldn't have noticed that their level design turned out a swastika. 0 Share this post Link to post

Ichor Posted June 15, 2003 Looks like someone needs to upgrade their Doom game. It was removed in later versions. 0 Share this post Link to post
insertwackynamehere Posted June 16, 2003 Yeah, there's a whole FAQ on it somewhere. I think that it was deemed inappropriate so they removed it. BTW, Ichor I emailed you something. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted June 16, 2003 ...checks email... I guess it makes sense to have it on there since these are blogs. And with HTML may also come the possibility of JavaScript. I don't like JavaScript... 0 Share this post Link to post

It was removed in later versions. that would explain a lot...I always knew about that swatstika and I saw it in shareware, but it wasn't there once I bought Ultimate Doom. Thought I was like seeing things or going crazy haha. 0 Share this post Link to post
dr_qui Posted June 16, 2003 according to the books (sad to say i own them) the swastika was another attempt at enraging and upsetting our hero's with images of mankinds dark past... 0 Share this post Link to post

Fredrik Posted June 16, 2003 The swastika was just a bit of creative geometry from the id designers' part. Possibly a homage to Wolfenstein 3D. Burn the novels. 0 Share this post Link to post
dr_qui Posted June 16, 2003 to the pair of you.. yes the books are bullshit, but the prices they fetch are rising. gonna make some money eventually ! 0 Share this post Link to post

Check out the doomworld.com/vb/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=10]fan fics section here on Doomworld instead. You can find some quality fiction there (some of it involving sexual intercourse with demons). 0 Share this post Link to post

Johnatone Posted June 17, 2003 perhaps, with so much apprehension, we should round up all the doom novels and have a mass burning ceremony. the day before doom3 is released. 0 Share this post Link to post

Sephiroth Posted June 21, 2003 on a comical note. swastikas cover my school. no, there are no nazis running it, that i know of. In the library, walled desks(like cubicals i guess) are positioned so if u look from above they form a swastika. if u go on the upper level and look down you are greeeted by a group of 15 or so swastikas. i am surprised that no one has ever said anything, i highly dout they have gone un noticed. even more comical, in that sick ironic way, there was a holocaust exhibit a few weeks ago in that area. 0 Share this post Link to post
Job Posted June 21, 2003 Neo Nazis are idiots. They bitch about immigrants causing trouble in this country and how it's ours and that they've no right to be here. Well, what the fuck? Why aren't the "Native Americans" bitching about us in the same right. Life is a zero sum game where might makes right. We had the military might, which made us right. We're a bunch of blue-eyed, blond haired, criminal fucks. 0 Share this post Link to post
