So what was with the copyright stuff? Only for the german version? Wierd. Thanks though, you rock man.

There is no German vesion.
It's just that certain German sites don't give a damn about copyrights.

I've seen the clip. Fucking awesome. Nuff said.

[Goliath]

omg!!!i just saw it.

[Relica Religia]

Wow.....once I get this game, "Say goodbye to daylight."

Um, actually only id Software can copyright this stuff, since it's footage of they're game, and apparently they didn't mind. It's on par with porn sites making you pay to download nude scenes from movies, which are for home veiwing purposes only.

hmmm... I dunno, I think when it's liscensed/granted to be in a magazine review or television show it kind of gains another copyright. I know hosting magazine stuff is against copyright of the magazine itself, I would ASSUME television would be the same way - of course, if G4 was cool they'd let it slide anyway. The gaming community is all about sharing the media.

Where do I get this from?

Someone pm me please...please...please.

[Scabbed Angel]

Shit... I'm at work and the crappy WMP won't play it because I don;t have access to admin functions. Can anyone describe what I'm missing?

Get it there

It was ripped by Willy Wonka over on rage3d another forum I go to.

Anticipation building...

[TwiNCannoN]

wtf: anyone else notice this? at 1:21, when the demon's hand is going through the wall/door thing, there's a bullet. Are the bullets in doom3 going to be non-hitscan? Also after watching it like 4 more times it looks like he CATCHES it... odd?

Oh and since I haven't commented yet, OMG. Awesome friggin movie... definately a nice fix to hold me over for a little while.

Dig the rocket/bfg shockwaves, too.

[doomedout]

Thank you ID for changing the archville. I cannot begin to describe to you how awesome it looks.

Someone teach me how to upload; and if there is a server available: I will be only happy to submit a kick ass pic of this demon.

My assessment? Everything that wasn't going for ID a few months back has been addressed, and done with its vintage style and prowess; now we potentially have a game that could be virtually flawless.

Gameplay looks sweet.

[Alientank]

Well they said it was beta back in the spring. This leads me to believe they've done a lot of code clean up and optimizations with the render paths, multiplayer, and overall performance and bugs.

I cant say what that is but to me it doesn't really look like a bullet...but anyway i have a question in like .59 the imp falls forward when he got hit. looks funny.

!!!Please don't let that game suck!!! :P

[StarFyre]

I liked the archvile from the pc gamer i think it was, some time ago. I thought it looked much cooler than the supposed archvile in this new clip.

I want to see the cyberdemon!!!

[Relica Religia]

I'd like to know what that demon was about 1:30 into the clip, with those creepy mandibles?

And maybe that old Arch-Vile model wasn't really an A-V. Maybe PC Gamer got its facts messed up and that was a totally different monster, who knows?

Because it sure seems they came up with this new Archie pretty quick.

[EllipsusD]

I'm personally more concerned about the demon that shoved it's head through the doorway... I wonder how the rest of it will look...

It looks HUGE.

[Melfice]

Maybe I'm crazy but I thought it had a ton of eyes...maybe it was the Cacodemon? It looked pretty round.

No.. it's head was round but it only had 2 eyes, it was too small to be the cacodemon (well, I assume the Cacodemon will be bigger than that anyway), and there is a clear connection of the head to a neck. If anything, it looks to be about the size of a Hell Knight... maybe a little larger.

[Goliath]

Who knows it might just be a new monster.

[doomedout]

DAMMIT THE ARCHVILLE LOOKS SO GOOD.

Words cannot describe how happy I am that they reverted back to the old one; it looks....
err...
ummm...

sexy.

[Disorder]

Did anyone notice the candles in the Archvile room? Sweet! Looks like the old medieval looking objects will be there again.

[Goliath]

i really need this game now or there is a good chance I might die... They should just stop giving out really kick ass videos cause i want doom more and more every time i watch that video.

[Disorder]

Found this at Planetdoom:



Most of Planetdoom's members agree that there is a good chance we're looking at the massive head of a Mancubus. Would you agree? Damn that thing looks evil.

[Lord FlatHead]

Needless to say, this trailer is sweet. I've been more or less secretly disappointed with the game for a long time now, but it seems I just hadn't seen enough of this cool stuff :) Watching this video, I really felt for the first time that this is in fact a Doom game. It's probably the Plasma Gun, plus the neat-looking Archvile.

Also what's probably most impressive in this thing, and something we haven't seen much of before - how much the credibility of the environments and characters add to the feeling that the game world is 'alive'. The radio chatter, the offices with people just going about their work, the Asian guy who says he can't take it anymore... very cool. My first thought was one of surprise that id put all these neat touches in their game, but then id hasn't made a single-player oriented game since Quake II. I used to have an impression of id as pretty narrow-minded, even conservative game developers; but it looks like they've totally redeemed themselves.

Four more weeks till it's going to show up here in Europe... I can feel the excitement building again :)

[Shaviro]

The Archvile is perfect!
Also, the fact that the HK throws odd plasma stuff is really really awesome.

[Disorder]

Yeah, the balls of plasma/fire balls and windows seem to distort your vision a little, like heat does in real life. Very cool.

Poor asian guy ****SPOILER****A little while later, when the thing with the mandibles comes, he is the one it kills... look for yourself******END SPOILER*******

I FINALLY got to watch it, as even my home computer was being retarded. HOLE. EEE. SHIT. After the x-box trailer, I was kind of worried as well, but hot damn. It does really feel like a Doom game not, what with the plasma, the BFG (it was right? It didn't take up half the screen, but seemed very faithful to the original. Thank God no more Quake 2/3 crap excuse for a BFG, the original is back!) the Archville (a character I never really liked) looks fucking amazing, I felt like... I was back home or something. If this is the new one, I'm glad they scrapped the other one. In some cases, they just need to stick with the original design imo. Wow. I love his effects too, and am glad to see they are the same as they were : ). I love all the detail; you're right... it really makes the game come alive... fuck you Half Life!

[Relica Religia]

Half-Life 2 doesn't look like a bad game, but it doesn't seem as meaty as D3.

Alright, my guess is that the mandibled creature who kills the Asian is some sort of advanced Imp.....or maybe a new species altogether.

But that head sticking through the doorway almost looks like it's part of the wall. Strange.
