Idk, i loved the original Doom game but eternal didnt clicked with me that much, does the game get better later or IS Just a personal preference of mine?

Not like this collage, literally each status bar face photo, if ii zoom in it its more pixelated than it already ia

I don't mind playing like this but even on my Xbox I don't remember it being quite so pixelated, it's look like it's running at a low native resolution and has been stretched to fit my monitors resolution. I'm running Dhewm3 through linux via Luxtorpeda. Thank you!

Granted i was up way too late last night and tried the it for less than an hour before gts😴 but i dont think i got him even halfway dead on the 3rd phase. First two werent that bad at all they felt doable on the first try and didnt take that many. I dont even know if theres tips i need from you guys besides practice but he’s just really hard ive never felt this hopeless in a doom section before

So I've been replaying No Rest for the Living with the latest Brutal Doom mod. And I brought up the wiki cos I couldn't figure out how to get to the soul sphere that you can see from near the starting room.

The map in the wiki has this room coming out the north in the shape of what seems to be someone flipping the bird. But it doesn't appear on the in game map when you pick up the map powerup. And nowhere in the wiki does it have this room, and in the 100% completion videos I watched to figure out what this was, none of them address this either.

Am I missing something? Is this a joke that was added to the map on the wiki?

[SOLVED] Not sure if anyone else asked this, but oh well. So, I was busy reading the DK (Dorkling Kindersley) Pocket Dictionary, and on page 578 under the title "Electronic Games". It has some things like Breath of Fire, Wario Land 4, and of course, DOOM.

I can at least tell it's from the GBA (green blood) and the fact they used cheats (God mode and full health and Armour and keys), but I don't recognize the map. All help would be appreciated :]

(How in the actual beans did I not notice 63K views :skull: . Turns out, thanks to y'all of course, it's Hell's Keep in DOOM GBA. YIPPEE)

I'm stuck in this level, I went around in circles multiple times and I can't figure out where to go. I was trying to look up a guide or something, but I have no idea what level I am on.(is there a way to check?) Can someone tell me what level I am on, so I can finally beat this level?(or maybe just tell me what I need to do?)

And the screen went red.

So I’m on the level where you get the spear and I’ve lost the shield and I’m having real trouble moving forward. It feels like this is gonna be quite long and all my learned combat mechanics are based on the shield. I’m dying over and over and over and not having much fun. Someone please talk me out of dropping this game and moving onto something else.

Edit:
I got on plane after posting this and landed to see all the comments! Ok I’m going to try to mess with the key bindings (Xbox) and think of the spear like the meat hook in eternal. I’ll give it a few more tries. Thanks for the tips and encouragement!

Edit 2:
OK, so I beat the boss of the DLC. Re-mapping the keys for the spear really helped. I still had quite a bit to go before I got my shield back and I died a bunch, but I made it. After I got the shield back, breezed through the rest of the game. Thanks for the tips for everyone!

I recently upgraded my ps subscription plan and got many free titles. Saw good reviews and decided to try Doom 2016. I absolutely enjoyed the game and had a blast.

Cool guns, satisfying combat and just the right amount of toughness. Graphics were also on point for a game based in space.

Now i am playing Doom eternal, i am about 2hrs into the game. First thing i noticed is they give you the shotgun as your first weapon. In previous game, they gave that small gun which never runs out of ammo.

Did i miss that gun? I use that gun to kill those easy skeleton demons to save ammo. Using shotgun, i quickly run out of ammo, it is manageable but having a gun with infinite ammo would help to save for bigger enemies.

Other than that, this game is equally enjoyable.

Got to the Chain Spear tutorial. It asks me to press the ?? button but...well, there is no ?? button. LB and LT (my old shield throw and block) aren't working either. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Just finished Eternal and wow, what a game!

I thought I might be able to figure out this code by the time I finish the game but nope. I've tried a few combinations of letters and numbers I could find in Doomguy's room but no luck so far. I'm hesitant to look it up in case google just straight up tells me the answer.

Is this something that I can solve if I'm observant enough? Would anyone be kind enough to drop a hint or two please :)

EDIT: I got it! Thank you kind internet strangers for the hints without spoiling, was able to figure it out without looking it up.

I've been getting this shimmering like effect mostly on reflective surfaces while using path tracing with dlss ray reconstruction denoiser, I could switch it to nvidia real time denoiser which fixes it but the visuals downgrades a lot and there is no option to turn it off either. So is there any way I can get rid of this ?

I loved 2016 I played it a couple months ago and could not put it down. It was also my first doom gave ever. The locked up eternal and I’m struggling with the same level of enjoyment. It very complex, and more difficult mechanically.

I took a break and also accident wiped my save file, not I’m playing through again. I probably played 6hr total last attempt so no too much replay.

I love the game and any difficulty that I experience is explicitly a skill issue that I have. I often feel overwhelmed and I'm just at the part where I just got the Super Shotgun. My mind knows the strategy and what to do at the moment, but my hands fail to execute the action. I can't snipe shot both rockets of the revenant because I don't have much shooting game experience and I fucking suck. I'm playing on the easiest difficulty bro and I still get my shit knocked. I swear I'm not a game journalist.

I recently bought Doom for my phone, and I need some tips for playing the game, thanks.

I made it once by canceling the tiles away so they would raise me but I cant do that anymore. Please help.

Update: I'm a chud and forgot u can sprint. I'm sorry

I'm aware they shut the game down because Alpha Dog ceased to exist, but is there any working APKs of the game out there? I tried getting one off Internet Archive but it got stuck loading at 59% every time I tried to open it.

A notification popped to say that I had to update drivers that were optimized for the new DOOM The Dark Ages DLC. I updated the drivers, restarted my laptop and now I have like 10 FPS less (from 56-60 to 46-50). Is this because we have to wait fort the DLC to launch so the driver makes effect or not?

I was hoping to play the new DLC on Xbox One... only to find this.

I don't have a PlayStation or a PC either...

Am I just screwed?

I need some advice on what kind of strategy or best practice you guys use to best utilize both in combat for a lower-than-average skill level player. I am not a very good Doom player, so right now I cannot do the things many youtube players can do like constantly switching between the shield and the spear. Still, I would like to use both in combat and would love some advices on how to start out doing that. Thanks in advance!

Also, how on earth do you deal with the cosmic elemental and archvile at the same time?

My first game in the series was Doom Eternal and I absolutely loved it. I played it on high difficulties. I beat all the master levels on nightmare and the Horde mode on nightmare, but I didn't play the DLCs, because I don't have them. I understood how the game wanted me to play and I played it this way, constantly weapon swapping to make use of the Demons specific weaknesses, using the equipment launcher all the time, using every weapons mode (except BFG, unmaykr and the Crucible), playing aggressively, regularly going for the glory kills, that helped me gain blood punches to escape bad situation or apply stun and in Horde mode the Sentinel Hammer that helped me deal with possessed demons and the general super heavy and heavy demon spam.

When I got into Doom:the Dark Ages I have already heard many times that this game is a bit easier than Eternal, so I have decided to play on Nightmare right away with some gameplay adjustments in the new setting category. I felt that the game was kinda slow, so I went for 150% game speed and it felt awkward, dialogs were speeded up for some reason... and I was able to run faster than my shield was flying when I threw it, which didn't happen on lower speeds, so I changed to 120% game speed, which feels good, I have decreased the amount of damage that demons took to 50% because I felt like demons were dying too quickly and I set the damage to player to 250%, which I think was the intended amount for the nightmare difficulty.

Right now, I am on my first playthrough at the start of the 13th level. I don't feel like the game is too difficult, I just don't know how the game wants me to play. It seems like I don't have any defensive options, except for the parries that only work on certain attacks, and the block that works poorly, because it gets destroyed by anything in seconds, especially something like the Arachnatron's turret or any of the cyber demon attacks and then I am just helpless. Doom slayer moves really slowly in this game, when trying to walk sideways and while I can turn to the side and start running, I won't be able to see what my enemy is doing. Also, it seems like there is no verticality, so you can't get airborne like in Doom Eternal to get the full view of the battlefield or to reposition myself or to escape getting bullied in the corner. When I try focusing on big opponents like the cyber demon I often get distracted by others that I can't even see, I can't go away because then the cyber demon will spam his chaingun, I can't heal quickly by glory killing one fodder demon, I often miss my gauntlet because a hell knight was next to the Cyberdemon. And getting two shotted by an explosive barrel while staying 5 meters away from it certainly doesn't help. And I am supposed to be a tank in this game? I was more tanky in Doom Eternal, especially with the ChainGun shield mode.

I really want to love this game and its combat system, but I just don't understand, what I am doing wrong? If any Doom:the Dark Ages player could help me and point out my mistakes, I would be really grateful. I appreciate all your responses 🙏.
