DOOM 4 In Full Production? Details At QuakeCon | GameBlurb

GameBlurb, "id Software has confirmed that the highly anticipated DOOM 4 is in full production, as production for ID' latest game, RAGE, wraps up. DOOM 4 was first announced in 2008 but has been notably absent from the QuakeCons of recent years."

reboot? Doom 3 was also a reboot...

[wallis]

They haven't announced jack shit yet except that it's not a reboot, sequel, prequel or remake which leaves... well I don't really know what it leaves.

So long as it's a) first person b) got that great art direction that always makes id software's rendition of hell incredibly novel and interesting, c) colossal amounts of action and guns and d) the first class level and world design we've come to expect from id.

Oh yeah and e) Hell on Earth.

Just thinking about that and id's recent foray into open(ish) worlds makes me moist.

Make it for next-gen consoles please! Doom 4 + new crazy tech + Carmack's genius = win.

[meetajhu]

Carmack = WIN anyday

I hope they do. I hate having to adjust settings on my computer for playing specific games. I've been trying to play the Doom 3 demo in my computer and it just doesn't work.

[PattHpapong]

wouldve happened sooner or later, i guess

[mrmancs]

the legend return's! all we want to accompany it , is a new quake!(i dont want much!!) :)

[Perjoss]

This time with single player and not made by Raven, not that there was anything wrong with Quake 4, I'd just like Q5 with single player campaign and made by id.

I loved Doom 3 and have been waiting for Doom 4 for ages. I do hope that they finally show off a slimmer of what this game is supposed to look like. For a while now id has been giving praise to doom 4 for some time now. It better be visually mind blowing.

[Orpheus]

Want it to be PC first .... the place where ID belongs

[turgore]

I wonder if it will be the new graphics king.

[Orpheus]

Fervently hoping it to surpass nething on the market .... BF3 , Metro last light .... tho they r cool ... the graphics evouliton needs to find the tempo back that it had in the 90s..... doom 3 came nd conquered but only a few months later fear got the crown then elder scrolls....... but nowdays it takes 4 yrs to surpass the graphics king aka crysis .... no moreover the sequel looks worse :-(

[LightofDarkness]

I believe, as has been stated a few times before, the plan is to continue all focus on Rage until it ships. After that, Doom 4 will move from the planning/preliminary stages to the full development stage and all focus will shift to it.

It has also been said that while Rage is designed to run 60FPS on consoles, Doom 4 will likely run at 30FPS and be much more inferior to it's PC counterpart. id have stated that the new Doom is more a reboot than direct sequel and they intend the game to be a true flagship for id Tech 5 and an early peak at what "next-gen" will look like.

[Raider69]

Carmack already stated that DOOM4 is only going to run at 30fps on consoles and that the game will not take the same time in production than RAGE.They expect a year to a year and half to produce DOOM4 since the engine is already made.

[emmerin]

carmack stated single player will run at 30fps while multiplayer will run at 60fps

[MrDead]

I want the original intro music back as well id

[xer0]

Looking forward to this game.

[BeastlyRig]

If this leads on ps3/360 I will buy when it on sale on steam.. Same goes for Unreal 4..

[ATi_Elite]

They better for the love of the Gaming Gods make this for the PC First then port down to the consoles.

They need to go all out with DX11 and try very very hard to blow BF3 PC away. Carmack needs to realize HL2 ep3 is right around the corner so he better step his game up.

Doom is an iconic game for the ages and Id better not screw it up with a crappy console port.

[MasterD919]

It better be at some stage of development....I mean c'mon already!

Rage will have to do for now...

[Rhezin]

hell yeah, I loved doom III. And the original doom as well, lets not forget the classics. DOOM IV WILL BE AWESOME!
