Doom III is out there! W00T!


Recommended Posts

Jesus, my friend went and bought it at my local Best Buy earlier today when I told him it was there. He actually picked me up and brought me to his place so I could see the game.

Absolutely fricken incredible. I can just imagine me playing it in the dark on my headset whilst the thunderstorms are knocking away with the lightning blasting!

-------

Yay, my friend is gonna let me go play at his house for awhile!!!

P4 3.2 Ghz (overclocked but I have no clue to what clocks)

6800 Ultra

2 GB Ram

His PC is even more l337 than mine.

And yes, it looks INSANE on Ultra detail. And, the thunderstorms are getting worse woohoo!

I'll be back in a few hours I'd imagine, chow peeps!

Jesus went to Best Buy and picked up a copy of Doom 3; He didn't just speak it into existence? :blink: And He found out about it from you; He didn't already know it was there? :blink: And he took you up to heaven to check it out? :blink: And He's using a P4 instead of an Athlon FX? :no: And only two gigs of RAM? :no:

That's alternatingly crazy and weak; Jesus needs a better rig.

:whistle: phew, good news indeed. I got the impression i'd only be getting around 40 - 50 fps as I have same specs as Dray_04. Tomorrow morning :woot: :woot:

I'm trying to download this from BT. I've got the game preordered too, so I'm not a pirate! :p

But even with 400 seeds and 20000 peers, I'm still only getting about 15K. What's going on?

All ports have been forwarded and ABC Bittorrent shows that everything is working fine, but the speed just won't go up despite the fact that there's 5 million people uploading.

,Aug 1 2004, 17:23] I'm amazed at how good this game looks on my system, even at medium. P4C 2.6, 1 gig ram, Radeon 9800 (non-pro). I expected a slideshow, but it's very very smooth.

cool. that's about my specs. i have a 3ghz though.

Its just they way it is... probaley some people limiting the upload speed i think and you share that across 1000's of people its not going to be very fast at all.

Also just cause you pre-ordered the game still makes you a "pirate". You are downloading a game which you do not own illegally. :laugh:

So, can anyone confirm the rumor that the final boss is indeed the dreaded Cyberdemon of old? Just say yes or no, and post a screenshot. Nothing too extensive.

As for me, im just waiting for EB to let me know when they get it in, since I pre-ordered a while ago. You guys need to stop getting so worked up about how well it will run or whatnot, it's really quite pathetic. And to those who did get it, just shut up and stop bragging. It's ****ing rediculous.

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft officially confirmed Windows 11 version 26H2 with the latest build, 26300.8697, for testing in the experimental Insider channel. The company also published more details about it mainly directed towards IT admins and system admins. Essentially version 26H2 will be delivered via an enablement package (eKB) over Windows 11 25H2. If you are wondering about some of the upcoming features in the next Windows version, one of them is certainly very interesting as Microsoft has confirmed it is finally bringing one of the most overwhelmingly requested features ever. March Rogers, the Partner Director of Design at Microsoft, recently highlighted some of the Search improvements that the company is testing, and during the interaction with users on X where he posted it, Rogers also confirmed that the company is working on disabling web search results inside Search. This is something which many users find quite annoying as Windows would often serve them links to Bing which it feels could be more helpful rather than bringing up the actual object or app the user may be searching for on their PC. Finally though the company is prioritizing local file search over the web. However the feature could not be disabled for many users as not all new features are immediately rolled out to everyone. Image via phantomofearth (X) Windows enthusiast phantomofearth who likes to dig deep into new builds uncovered the IDs you will need to enable these features. Using the following feature IDs the new Search-related features landing in Windows 11 26H2 can be used. Follow the steps below to enable the new Search experience on Windows 11 build 26300.8697: Download ViveTool from GitHub and unpack the files in a convenient and easy-to-find folder. Press Win + X and select Terminal (Admin). Switch Windows Terminal to the Command Prompt profile with the Ctrl + Shift + 2 shortcut or by clicking the arrow-down button at the top of the window. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id: and press Enter. Restart your computer. If you change your mind and want to restore, repeat the steps above and replace /enable with /disable in the commands on steps 5 and 6. Delightedly and perhaps also expectedly, once you disable web search and other such bloat, the Windows 11 Search is said to get snappier as remarked by another Windows enthusiast Xeno.
