I saw that and wondered why they would have chainsaws on a planet without trees.

I don't know if you have ever used a chainsaw, but they can cut more than wood.

i thin the whole doom thing is just a liul too dark, i photoshopped the picture atr college a couple of hours ago to be a bit righter in the top half and redder at the bottom (with a new layer at 25% opacity and a red to white gradient)

looks far better like that imho

Well its supposed to be dark to add the the atmosphere, as long as you can see objects in the room there will be no problem with the darkness:cool:

Watch the living dead trilogy:p it wrote the rules for zombies;)

having seen a lot of footage from the game im quite concerned about the level of darkness though, its at the point where you can hardly see anything by default imho..

/me will have to up the gamma

I havnt seen many points where it becomes difficult to see things myself. Although I had to make Unreal 2 a tad brighter since it was pitch black at some points:D

Just spend a litle time tinkering with the settings to make it brighter and not lose the dark atmosphere, wonder how Doom3 will work on my rig *drools*:D

judging from the d3 alpha i have... it does seem a little dark... but it adds to the atmosphere of the game. its part of the "scare" factor... so i wouldnt try to tweak it...

By the way, when Doom III is out, what will NVIDIA's and ATI's best graphics cards be at that time?

Well its pretty easy to just prod at the settings a little bit to make it more visible and keep the effect :)

Looks like it will probably be NV40 vs. R400, though I believe I've heard of delays on the R400.

Doom isn't Doom without a chainsaw! :)

Period.

It's the perfect weapons against those pink puppy dogs. :D

Doom isn't Doom without those pink puppies, either! :p

in doom 1 even when I used the chainsaw those pink bastards always found a way to take a few chunks out of me before they dropped:lol:

man, I can't wait for this game! Look at those crazy lookin' graphics, dang! Wonder what Quake IV will be like, or SOF III:eek:

love it how in Doom when you used the chainsaw on a monster(or barrel or person in multiplay) it accelerated you forwards haha, that should make to some interesting cuts in D3:D

Quake IV will use the Doom III engine.
