Shaping up a LOT better than the previous scans. I have links if you need them.

Some of the scenes look quite good. However in true o'dium fashion, i still say a few of the new versions of past foes are a tad off.

But the game just moved up a notch in my book. Its not Quake 2, but its not as bad as doom 3 looks, so thats a good thing.

If you want the scans let me know.

Its not that doom 3 looks bad. And dont go into "look at the textures/polies!" shit because we all know why THAT happened, too.

Its baout the fact that its just... Boring. Play the game for 5 mins, see a 2 monsters and you pretty much get nothing new ever again in the game. And after your 17th monster closit, you kinda have to say "gee, THIS is the future of FPS? I doubt it."

the scans are great man!! check the marine, he looks totally life-like, check page 6 bottom right corner.

the whole atmosphere seems great, this is the only game im really anticipating. too bad there are still no real in-game shots, with hud and gun in sight.

doom3 wasnt meant to be the future of fps ey, it's just the engine thats the future (but you prolly know that). i enjoyed doom3 as a game, but it didn't have the same feel as the old doom has. although if i play CDoom i totally get the old doom-feeling back, they should've done it that way imho :)

btw odium, are you sure you don't post on doom3world.org under the name idiom? your style is totally the same.

There are shots of the hud/fp weapon. IMHO, the machinegun looks very odd compared to the old, and the hud isn't the greatest, but hopefully these things will change. The doom 3 gun and hud changed too remember.

I do have to say that it is looking sweet. Much, much better that i planned. I dont think ill ever be happy with new versions unless they are just the old version in new form. Thats just Q2E and me i guess.

But still, some of the shots look great and i so agree with the "upgrade" system. That is exactly what i wanted for overdose, too, and i think it would work great here.

Just a shame its not using another physics engine, doom 3's was very weak. Cardboard boxes were the same weight as rocks, and stuff like that...

Aye, sorry guys, i was about to check them in more detail, i only saw the pics before, never really read the info that much. I went to read them, and now they are gone, i hope they are still in my cache. I'll upload them if so.
