I have actually just wet my pants.
I look forward to Doom4, the wait has begun.

Eh?

what platform are they making it for? I had a quick look at the jobs page and at least for level designers they were looking for people with DS experience.
Besides, they should be making a new Quake game that follows Quake 1! :)

Hopes For Doom 4

*more enemies active at once
*better, more satisfying weapons
*COOP < most important thing
*larger environments
*more evilness
*more varied environments
*better level design
*no cutscenes
*heavier monsters used early on
*no shitty zombie commandos that can do somersaults and backflip behind cover. I don't mind the mutant ones with whip arms etc. but the regular z-sector ones were so annoying and not fun to fight.
*better AI on the more significant hellspawn creatures.
*mutant owl neck syndrome toned down
*monsters have finishing moves when they kill you, like in the first doom 3 leaked shakycam footage where the hell-knight eats the player's head. That kind of thing.
*the ability to use a flashlight and proper gun at the same time.

DS Experience.

than, just to put it simple: a proper action-packed shooter, instead of another futile attempt at cheesy horror where you cant see much. the rest is details
/me cares more about Rage, cause it seems to feature more open and varied gameplay

and it would be interesting to see if the Doom frachise dies with the #4, just like Quake

That Reminds Me

* No shit story involving an evil scientist. I can't believe they didn't realise how amazingly cheesy this idea was.
* Don't give it to Raven to develop.
* Properly fucking visceral weapons. Remeber the super shotgun in Doom 2? Fucks sake. Look at the weapons in Half-Life 2. Listen to the sounds they make. Take notes.
