New boarding party training program available! While the combat simulator is excellent, SSCF Admiral Rolling has made inquires into the exact meaning of the initals "B.F.G."

We advise all interested parties to obtain this program for you holodecks (imagine DOOM on the holodeck, sheesh, need duranium depends) before the "Pin" spins into high gear on this one!

AWESOME game, but WHAT a power hog, OMFG does it need a high end system. Might actually run RIGHT in a 23rd century box, sheesh!

Great game.
Although the end fight took me a bit to figure out.

STEADY LeRoy, STEADY there boy! While the SSCF might start playing DOOM, I was making mention of Rolling merely in her perpetual role as the "Moral Standard" for these fora, and the term "B.F.G." is the type of thing she might have a say aboot!

Im quite sure you guys are still gonna be playing that BF42 (even if it does SUCK compared to Call of Duty)  :rofl:

Hexx: I havent gotten that far, Im in Delta Labs 2 or something, just got it on Saturday. Been glued to my damn chair like... well.. like I was playing SFC or something. Fortunately, I will have it done LONG before GW3 starts up, probably twice.

Haven't played all the way through the Game yet, But It is alot of fun. I usually wait untill after everyone's in BEd, and Play a few hours in the dark, to get the full Experience.

It's great in the dark, especially if you've got surround sound .
I admit though- I know it would detract from the game but there were ALOT of times I was like

When ever COD allows u to use vehicles I will play more.  COD is just IMHO a very glitzy version of DOOM.  And yes I have had COD since christmas and find it very tedious, but its only saving grace is its got better graphics than the other POS I own MOHAA and MOHAA-Spearhead.

For now tho I play Alot of BF Nam,  Graphics are great, and I love that you can put in your own MP3s to play.

Rat Boy got me interested in BF Nam awhile back, I still haven't picked up a copy yet. I'll grab some though this week.

Think I'm going to build an Ultimate gaming PC also, as I'll have a few Bucks to throw around at last.

Right on the money with The surround Sound. I did get a 5.1 set up last week. The Differance that EZX gives you is incredible. I don't know how I lasted Without It.

I've been kinda scared to try out the mods. There was one that would steal your CD key I think.

Yeah, how FACKING STOOPID is it that you dont have a light on your weapons? Or at least SOME of the weapons?
I mean, ive got a few magazines lying around here that have more ways to mount optics on your weaponry that you can shake a stick at, but in 2100+ they cant figure out how to put a light on a weapon? BLEH!

AvP you have a shoulder mounted light, but with a short time span, whereas the Doom light never needs battys. Put the AvP light on the shoulder and give it eternal bttys and call it a day already. Its not ambiance, its stupid.


Im in the lower levels of Delta labs now, and i am getting SICK AND TIRED of that MOFO undead, undying tentacle totin marine supersoldier! Killed that bastich at LEAST 200 times already.

TBC, I agree, being able to drive any type of vehicle you want is an awesome feature, no doubt. But CoD is alot more than just Doom, lol. BF is alot more "arcadish".

But i like it as well. Havent tried Nam version yet.

AJTK,

If you play on a smaller server with some people on voice chat, you will find BF is more than an arcade game.

Rarely on the bigger servers will you see air strikes being called in.
Rarely on the bigger servers will you see artillery strikes being called in.
Rarely on the bigger servers will you see combat squads made up of medics, engineers, antitanks etc working to hold a bridge or building etc.

In CoD its been my experience (as well as MOHAA) to see people advance as waves to do an assault, with the occational people killer being a sniper.

Sure, with the character classes if you can get on a server with a bunch of people on TS or RW ala SFC servers then it would surely be a better multiplayer experience than CoD, your absolutely correct.

Finished it. Just have three helpful hints

1. GOD
2. Give all
3. noclip


That is all!

I dont have the patience for these things like I used to, so when I got surrounded by imps, spiders and hell knigts for the 50th time, I said F it, time to speed things up a bit.

The chainsaw works nicely on god mode I must say.

Hexx, you had a hard time figurin out the End battle? That was easy. I spent FOREVER tryin to figure out how to hurt the freakin Guardian on the hell level, sheesh. Finally figured out what to shoot by accident, lol! Saw it change color and after I stopped punching myself in the face, killled him straight away.

Actually I was just the opposite.. saw the guardian.. said "betcha I have to shoot that" and boom , he died.
I must have spent like 5 or 6 lives fro the end battle before I said "Hmm wonder what this does to him?"

How many times did you run into that center lava pit, or have him push you/blow you into it? lol

There is a mod out already for Doom that combines the flashlight with the pistol IIRC. As to CoD, it has a mod out called HoB(Heat of Battle) that requires teamwork to take and hold objectives, plus provided a few more weapons. Oh and it has its own maps too. I'm playing that for the most part right now. Unfortunately my system is to slow to manage Doom3 in order to play it properly :-[
