John Carmack of id Software warns that Doom 4 is likely to contain so much data that it may not fit on discs, not even Bluray.
Today, some new in-game footage from the prototype versions of the cancelled COD-like Doom 4 surfaced online.
What's cool is you can see some of the animations they kept and revised for 2016.
For me its always interesting to see some prototype of a game of something else and see the final product on why they go another direction in the end
I don't see what is "COD-like" here? Just because there's 2 seconds footage with ironsight?
Whilst the FPS genre has since had a tonne of fantastic franchises, such as Quake, Unreal and Serious Sam, Doom remains at the top of the pile, and has one of the best comeback stories in video game history. Doom is almost 30 years running, and has even bled into other mediums such as feature films and novels. As it has been going for so long, there have been a large number of entries in the series, and there are probably a few you never played. This is every Doom game ever.
According to ID Executive Producer Marty Stratton, DOOM 4 was scrapped because "it was more 'DOOM' in name than really anything."
This game is going to be insane. I've got the same amount of anticipation for this as much as I have for half-life ep 3.
There's a Doom 4!?
Also, not surprising. PC gaming is beginning to make that next gen jump. It's always ahead, but as this gen is seemingly winding down the PC is in the forefront of next gen.
Battlefield 3 will usher in next gen PC gaming, everything after (if it's not dumbed down or ported towards a console focus) ought to look more impressive
50+GB, how many discs would that be on DVD?
Judging by the past 3 days of news it seems like Carmack wants a new console badly
So this will be the first game to take up more than 50 gigabytes? Lets see it happen Carmack.
That means Doom 4 will take up 6 or more disc on the 360? Lets see it happen Carmack.
That means there will be no cut content right Carmack? Let's see it happen Carmack.
Lol if the PS3 version has 2 discs, 360 is probably gonna have like 10 discs
