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.

    • Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels Users should be able to fully uninstall AI-based features from Android devices and be able to access interoperability functions, free from Google’s verification requirements, the European Commission has heard as part of an Android interoperability consultation under the Digital Markets Act. These measures were proposed by the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) last week when it submitted its documentation. The FSFE noted that Google had started silently installing AI models without telling users. It noted that the EU’s DMA requires companies like Google to allow users to uninstall pre-loaded software from their devices, but in the case of the AI models Google is installing, they reinstall if you delete them, contravening the DMA. To get Google back under control, the FSFE has told the European Commission that there needs to be improvements within the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). First, it said that users should be able to fully remove pre-loaded AI components from their devices, with companies being prohibited from silently reinstalling or reactivating them. Second, access to Android interoperability features should not be contingent on registration, authorization, or contractual relationships with Google. This pertains to Google’s attempt to force developers to register with Google, even to publish apps to alternative app stores like F-Droid. Discussing its submission, Lucas Lasota, FSFE Legal Programme Manager, said: Google is planning to roll out its Android Developer Certification in September 2026. This will force every Android app developer to register with Google before their software can be installed on certified Android devices, but it should affect those who have removed Google Apps from their device. The program is controversial because it entails the signing of contracts and payment of account fees to Google, as well as the handing over of the identities of developers. It said: The FSFE said that if the Commission’s draft measures remain unchanged, then Google will be allowed to make developers verify their identity. The FSFE believes that asking developers to register is contrary to the text and spirit of the law. In summary, the FSFE has told the Commission that no developer should need a Google account, a Play Store presence, or any agreement with Google to access Android’s interoperability features.
