Doom 3: Phobos

I've noticed that Phobos' art style resembles System Shock 2 quite a bit. Did y'all take inspiration from it or is it a coincidence?

RTC-3057 was also often compared to System Shock 2, but I've personally never played it :)

Shaviro, you would love System Shock 2.

You're dead to me.

But seriously, go play it. It's very harsh for first time players but it's an amazing game nonetheless.

I'd rather play Phobos. :P

As for you, your homework is to play a random classic that I select, I say Space Quest IV. Space Quest IV wipes the floor with System Shock 2. Figuratively and literally.

But back to Phobos, I'm very much looking forward to it!

This is so awesome

Nice. Also, that is some wicked architecture.

Wow, that lift, kinda reminds me of Half-life map c1a1 .

So can we expect this to come out before Doom 2016?

Doom(4) will be released before Phobos unless some major events occur on either side.

I just hope the presence of Doom 4 once released won't postpone Phobos for too long.

Awww man, it would have been a great warm-up for Doom 4.

Oh the memories :)

eww

Welcome to Zombie Lab 13!

The ceiling detail is nice though.

Ha ha, more like 'THROW-UP THURSDAY', amiright? Heh heh, am I---am I right, guys...

I think it's mostly the lighting which doesn't make it look so good.

It looks like a standard infirmary Doom 3 room. I kinda like when room purposes are instantly recognizable, it makes the place more authentic and immersive.

Latest work-in-progress:

Myammy .

Nice gates. And details like the symbol of electric lightning, or the pipe(s) under floor.

GLORIOUS.

I *hope* this support SnapMap so players can create and share their own user-generated content!

There's lot more, thousands over the past years , And still ongoing:

SnapMap is for Doom 2016.

Thanks :)
The engine will only take us so far. Its age is definitely starting to show, so we have to distract from that fact by doing a lot of other things. Keeping the eye busy on important or smaller details is definitely one of them. Also trying to create a nice and visually pleasing color scheme here without going all in teal and orange. I think it has worked out nicely :)

Will Phobos be focused heavily on horror elements like the original vanilla Doom 3? Or will it be more action oriented like the BFG Edition? Either way I continue to like what I'm seeing. Been following this project for over 4 years now and I always enjoy what you guys have said and shown.

Some of these shots almost look comparable to some of the lighting we've seen in Doom '16.
