Doom 3: Phobos Releases new Media

Team Future updated their Twitter today with a new screenshot of the work-in-progress mod Doom 3: Phobos.

Well for one thing the map in that shot sure looks nicer than any of the stock Doom 3 maps.

Still, looks quite typical for a UAC base. Honestly, I really like that design, and I wish that there was a better map editor specifically suited with prefabs for this theme [I'm guessing some of Team Future's designers have this same thought]. Realistically, a building on an non-habitable planet would have quite strict regulations on what materials to use.

Makes it look rather celshaded, compared with other screenies Ive seen

It's mostly because of the textures used I think. Cause this shot is taken in Vanilla Doom 3.

Thanks for the kind words btw!

Are you using a port for Doom 3?

You kidding? It blows Doom3 away.

[Siggi]

That's a very pretty screenshot. I approve.

Nope. We have a few custom stuff build into vanilla doom 3. But that's only AI and stuff, nothing with the renderer.

[Sporku]

When can I play it?

[DooM_RO]

How close is the mod to completion?Will you release it this year?

This is Doom 3, man :)

[geX]

We have no release date as of yet. It's done when it's done :)

Honestly i don't really think it looks that good. Almost looks like a beginner's attempt at building fancy geometry in 3dsmax, rendered with wireframes on and no textures. Especially the stuff at the very top. And why don't the crates cast any shadows? :p
