Maf Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 A good score, no doubt but honestly think it’s coming in a tiny bit under expectations. Not that it necessarily means much but I was expecting 90+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 The first one didn't score much higher. From the reviews I read anyway it sounds a bit bloated and has too much lore and that's probably reflected in some of the scores Which are all still pretty high tbh. Also apparently the platforming can be annoying but that was obvious. Anyway rip and tear, I'll be checking it out when it decrypts. I'm going to get fired soon anyway so who cares about playing games late on a work night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share Posted March 19, 2020 You two are insane, these scores are fucking awesome. 2016 got 85-87% average dependent on Platform so this is a slight improvement on those, which is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 It’s an excellent score and I’m looking forward to the game, I’m not trying to down play it. But for whatever reason I thought it would break 90. Ultimately there is no difference between a 88 and a 90 it was just my expectation and surprised it didn't reach that milestone (Even though it basically did) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one-armed dwarf Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 What is this Bethesda account stuff about? Do we really have to link an online account to play this game? I am definitely not going to do that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one-armed dwarf Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Less hassle to just go offline tbh. I don't need more accounts. Who knows how resilient our net infrastructure will be in the next few weeks anyway lol. Netflix has had to curtail their bandwidth usage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyKurosaki Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 All the Bethesda account does is give you skins/icons and stuff like that. I got some stuff for playing Doom 1 and 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DisturbedSwan Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 Doom Eternal opening weekend sales smash previous franchise record Quote Doom Eternal has broken the franchise record for opening weekend sales. According to Bethesda, Doom Eternal sales figures over the opening weekend doubled the launch revenue of Doom 2016. Sales figures weren’t provided. The game was also the best-selling title on Steam for the week and saw over 100,000 concurrent players on the platform. That is over twice as high as Doom 2016’s peak, at 44,271. It has also gone down rather well with critics. Doom Eternal released on Friday, March 20 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One. A Switch version is in the works and will be released later this year.

Maf Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 It went by quickly but Xbox dropped some good news for Doom fans in it’s getting a next gen patch https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2021-06-13-doom-eternals-free-next-gen-update-comes-out-late-june Stats are here Xbox Series X: Performance Mode: 1800p - 120FPS Balanced Mode: 2160p - 60FPS Ray Tracing Mode: 1800p - 60FPS Xbox Series S: Performance Mode: 1080p - 120FPS Balanced Mode: 1440p - 60FPS Ray Tracing Mode: not available PlayStation 5: Performance Mode: 1584p - 120FPS Balanced Mode: 2160p - 60FPS Ray Tracing Mode: 1800p - 60FPS PC: Ray Tracing Mode: Availability and performance depends on a user's PC hardware. This next gen patch will be my final attempt to like Doom Eternal. I’ve tried to play it 3 times and only got a level and a half in because I just can’t get on with it. I don’t even have real complaints about it, I get that’s it’s well made, there’s just something about it that grates with me. See if ray tracing and more effort on my part can get me over my problems with this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 1800p? 1584p? What's with the odd scales? Just drop it to 1440p and use the left over grunt to make it look better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 1548p looks better than 1440p ? I agree though they should just straight up offer better granularity over resolution controls now that they have 'graphics settings' on them. If you're on a 1440 screen then you don't be giving a fuck about wanky resolutions in between. But on 4k TV you really do want more pixels cause that shit can be grimy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiofloyd Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 This is extraordinary: https://medium.com/@mickgordon/my-full-statement-regarding-doom-eternal-5f98266b27ce Well worth a read. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
