I hear ya. I played for about 4 or 5 months while I lived in LA and it was cool... because I'm a star wars fan it was working well. I'm waiting for the expansion. That looks so nice and it's twitch fighting... full speed battles in space. Should be cool shit.

I've heard about it... Aren't they accepting beta testers now for it?

yup. it'll be hard to get into unless you went to their little shindig down in Anaheim for the galaxies players. They pick from those attendees first then the rest of us losers get whats left for spots. I don't have the time for it anyway although I signed up. I just wanna blow up x-wings in my tie.
anyone having stability issues with their radeon 9800 cards with Doom 3?

I hear these guys are making drivers that are more stable but I haven't tried them myself. My buddy said his game ran longer and more stable... knock on wood.

Yeah, those drivers are supposed to be more reliable, faster, and better quality than the official ones. I suggest downloading it when the latest one is done.

I wasn't really basing the engine quality on how good it looks; Painkiller owns the Doom 3 engine in a sort of a way because Painkiller has nice graphics and killer performance at the same time, while Doom 3 has killer graphics, but not as good performance.

Remember... Doom 3 is using Normal Mapping on all characters too. Shaders are costing them a few bucks.

Well, the thing is Doom 3 looks a lot better than Painkiller. And it runs very well too. I guarantee you if Painkiller implemented all the things Doom 3 does (if it even can) then it would be unplayable. Painkiller is an extremely basic engine, it doesn't really do anything extraordinarily well.

DarkDemin | Doom 3 is fucking scary. *shudders* I refuse to play this game at night.
|
No, it's just because it's your porn and masturbation time. That's why you don't play it at night.
|
Hah.
I think if there was somebody with me I wouldn't have any problems playing. :oops:
