Thankfully, I've got my yearly Doom series playthrough (including Heretic and HeXen) to keep my occupied until the game launches.

I am slightly concerned of the longevity of the new multiplayer, though. From what I remember of the Doom 3 launch, the multiplayer died off pretty quickly.

Doom 3 had multiplayer? I don't remember it having multiplayer.

This is an odd claim considering its server list is still running. (The original xbox port was shut down awhile back, although that was an Xbox Live thing.)

Talk about the worst week ever. Everything that can go wrong has.


...therefore I predict day 1 steam download server issues with everyone who bought it digitally frantically trying to download 55gigs at the same time. :D

What about preloading, would that help at all?

Yes it had extremely limited multiplayer on launch. 4 players maximum. Death match was the only mode.

I preorded the physical copy so i will not be able to start downloading until friday after work... ah well :/

I have 125 Mbit connection so it should not take 2 much time :)

The download size also includes compression, so what that won't be showing is decompressed size. Although it is odd, because apparently the disc has the first ~10GB according to the specifications, although with no discs released yet I wonder if they listed the physical size, not the download size (which would be hard to estimate when accounting for compression).

So, the payment for my copy of DOOM didn't go through on Amazon, so I have no choice then to go to Walmart (I know, It's a shitty store, but this Is for DOOM for crying out loud) at midnight.

Anyways, two more days.
