help me out here....

Now, once in a bookstore, I saw a complete replacement of DOOM that takes place on Jupiter. The Episode Names Were:

Massacre on Callisto
The Killing Fields of Io
The Big Red Spot -- Hell's Gate

What WAS that? does anyone know? I'd like to find a copy.

Massacre on Callisto
The Killing Fields of Io
The Big Red Spot -- Hell's Gate

Io's surface is pretty much magma. It has no geograhy, it changes in a matter of seconds. The Red Spot is a maelstorm of winds surpassing the 3000 km/h.

What was my point? They're obviously crap. Still, this deserves some research...just for masochism.

My god, what a cool Doom3 level you could base THAT on!

[Zaldron]

The keyword here is "base". I have absolutely no idea on how could someone establish a compound in that moon ^_^

[Jayextee]

A lattice structure surrounding the entire moon would kinda hold itself up. It's very improbable, but if I wanted reaslism in my games I'd play Monopoly all day.

Fuck, I need creative escapism, not limits enforced by the quest for realism in games.

IO's surface is solid but one problem. it is very( i mean very) geologicaly active. the surface might as well be all magma, eruptions all the time and constant quakes rip at this moon. second why would u even put anything there. also no human could even be on/in jupiter, even if they where in a ship. so i highly dout this

[elbryan42]

you don't understand. it can and will happen. here's why. people are stupid. rich people are even more stupid. rich people would spend money on something insane like that. i mean, look at hollywood. how stupid do you have to be to build your house on the side of a hill in mudslide territory?

[IMJack]

Think of it this way: Everybody's right. It will happen, and it won't work, and a lot of rich dumb people will end up getting themselves killed. Oh-bla-di, oh-bla-dah, life goes on (for the rest of us.)

Back to the original topic... I don't know. I've never seen that. Maybe run a search on Northern Light.

However, Europa would be an awesome setting. The surface is 100% ice, but undersea, there is one humongus ocean...and who knows what's beneath the surface?

[Zaldron]

And what about Jupiter? There's a pretty solid arguement saying there could be a massive liquid hydrogen sea under those clouds. It's radius would be hundreds of times bigger than Earth's. And the best part, the very same core on Jupiter could be a giantic diamond, even greater than the Earth.
