Curb your enthusiasm. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-04-05-john-romero-details-plans-for-mmo-ish-pc-shooterDamn... that's a real pity. Especially for someone who lives in South Africa. Fast pace gameplay means nothing with a high ping. :P EDIT: nevermind, saw your second post now. 0 Share this post Link to post
perkristian Posted April 21, 2016 Very cool video, but I have to agree with Ed; would made more sense if they swapped roles. 0 Share this post Link to post
DoomzRules Posted April 21, 2016 Just imagine an epic old id Software reunion! =D John Carmack, John Romero, Adrian Carmack, Sandy Petersen, Bobby Prince, Tom Hall, and Gregor Punchatz! =D IMAGINE THAT UNION! =D The FPS genre will be revived! =D 0 Share this post Link to post

CheeseOnTheMoon Posted April 21, 2016 Voros said:I couldve sworn there was a whole page of thread that said Sandy'a level design was dull . I've always wondered why everyone seems to think Petersen is a shitty level designer. I personally don't have anything against him. The only level of his I really dislike is E3M6, and even then my reasons have little to do with the design of the level. 0 Share this post Link to post

Lila Feuer Posted April 22, 2016 Vid made me laugh, I would love to see the others reunite if it was possible. The least likely candidate being John Carmack, since he's moved onto VR. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jon Posted April 22, 2016 That looks like a UK plate on the Nissan. Are they in the UK? Scotland perhaps? Edit: oh apparently Romero is in IE now? 0 Share this post Link to post

Deathmatcher Posted April 22, 2016 Jon said:That looks like a UK plate on the Nissan. Are they in the UK? Scotland perhaps? Edit: oh apparently Romero is in IE now? I guess it's in Ireland. Adrian just purchased a hotel there and Romero visited him. Allegedly the game is made in Galway. I read that somewhere... Really curious about what's gonna be revealed on Monday. 0 Share this post Link to post
Optimus Posted April 22, 2016 That makes me so excited and I don't care if they try something different like MMO elements or anything new, in fact I'd rather see new ways to reinvent the genre than making a reminiscent of the Doom classic. Although, I'd be happy they'd keep with some of the old sensibilities of oldschool FPS, especially interesting non-linear levels with lot's of secrets, nobody does that anymore. 0 Share this post Link to post
