Yeah BF's campaigns have been some of the worst in FPS history in my opinion.
I bet everything that nothing will top this in quite sometime.
Gameplay wise before anyone jumps at me lols.

Well after thinking about whether to buy or not I said fuck it and brought it earlier today. Main reason I held off was I wasn't sure whether I could get decent performance with my system (GTX 760, AMD 955 BE, 8GB RAM), but game looks and plays really well. I'm running mostly high at 1080p and I'm averaging around 50fps. Very happy with the performance, looks great and plays amazing.

Yea they were pretty poor, I think they were just hell-bent on competing with CoD feature-for-feature and had to churn out a modern military FPS campaign - a genre that had been done to death at that point.
I don't think BF1 had to have a campaign, so I'm hoping it's relatively original setting has inspired them to want to make something better.

I'm playing on ultra violence. Game has just taken it up a notch and you really need to be on it to get through each encounter. The overwhelming feeling of relief when that checkpoint finally hits is something else. It's almost like defeating a boss in bloodborne. Feels amazing and I'm left wanting more. After finishing U4 I think I might have to say this is the better game. I know they are different genres but it's about excitement and I feel more excited to dive into Doom and probably replay it once I'm through my first play though. I doubt I'll re-visit U4 apart from some small amount of MP.

HELP! I got to the level where you get the BFG a few days ago and stopped. Tried to start up the game today and I'm spawning in a room I have no idea how to get out of.
I have the BFG (I'm pretty sure it's right after you get it and it's a circular room with a big door to the Lazarus elevator and a rune hidden through a green door on the side. What the hell do I do?
I'm almost convinced the game is glitching because I genuinely cannot find ANY way out. There is a red door I'm convinced I have to lift but the game won't let me. There is no way in hell I'm restarting this mission as my gaming time is very limited and I spent so long getting every collectable and doing all 3 missions. If the is broken and I'm stuck I'm gonna have to just drop the game

THY FLESH CONSUMED. (And thankfully before Overwatch hits)
Chaingun is awesome once you fully upgrade one of its paths. Rockets are awesome in general, and more so if you go down the remote detonation path.
Stagger range should be ~20% of the remaining HP or so. I don't think there's anything that stands up to a single super shotgun blast or rocket once they go down, save for maybe a baron of hell.
Red is chainsaw fuel, green is BFG shots.
Yeah right? The first few encounters are pretty stale.
So where do I find that secret? Sounds amazing.

Just finished the game, and i really liked how the game expects of you that by the end you have learned the fundamentals, replaying some of the first levels after finishing the game with all the toys at your disposal is strange because how easy they feel now, i´m gonna start another playtrough in nightmare difficulty to see how i fare

Ran into a weird bug on what I think is the 2nd to last level. You have to
and there's one of those red force fields blocking the exit until you kill everything. I accidentally mantled the red force field and was able to proceed before finishing the area.
I was able to advance to the next level and everything.
shoot 4 core things
I had only shot 3 of the 4 cores.

Totally, it also makes the encounters feel more alive than just hunting down a set number of enemies. I remember being frustrated with parts of Serious Sam and Painkiller because there would be one or two enemies running around a part of the map I couldn't find.

I'm stuck in a room in that exact level and can't progress. Game is way buggier than it should be (but it still rules).

In SnapMap, is there a way to edit what weapons or equipment the player starts with? I can't find it anywhere.

Okay. Today is Friday. I took a half day at work as I am off to see Louis CK tonight.
So being I had a few hours left until I am leaving and also since it is the start of the weekend I decided to hang with my good old dear friend Mary Jane. We have been friends for 23 years now. Over half of my life. We have had an on again off again relationship but in my early 20's we were inseparable. For the past 4 or so years we have kept to just seeing each-other only on the weekends and it has worked our incredibly well, especially for myself. Just a clear head. It is at the point nowadays sometimes we do not even see each-other on the weekend. So when we do hangout, her effect over me is much stronger than it used to be. I just cannot help it.
And when I say I am not sure if I can play Doom while hanging out with MJ, I am not kidding. And that has NEVER happened with a single game in the history of games. I am here sharing my story as I had to stop playing. All kidding aside this is seriously a first in my life. And although I do not partake a lot it is not like I am bugging out right now otherwise. It is just the game gets that damn intense.
Kudos once again id. Kudos.

Make sure you do not have the gamma or contrast adjusted incorrectly...

Has anyone made any custom Doom covers with the PS4 banners on it? I love the inside cover art but it drives me crazy it doesn't have the official PlayStation banner stuff on it. I like consistency.

A Truly fantastic game. Loved my time with it. Might try to do some Nightmare sometime soon.
"Look at all that juice!"
Yeah, I had to up the gamma at the beginning. Literally couldn't see anything.

Having a blast so far.
The only thing I've loathed is the platforming sections but thankfully they don't seem to prevalent.
Can anyone tell me how far into the game I am?
Sorry for the shoddy explanation. I have no idea what's going on in the game but that's absolutely fine. The game does not need a good story to be captivating.

Random lady just opened the portal to hell or something. I saved and quit but I assume i'm in hell now

Maybe like a third of the way through? Not far, I'll tell you that much.

The thing I hate most about this game is googling it. I keep finding stuff about the older Doom games.
I'm having an issue where the loading doesn't start. It shows the red symbol and then should continue to 0%. But it is stuck on that red symbol.
It happens when I die and have to reload from checkpoint. And it also happens sometimes when I finish a level.
So if I could just google that issue I would be so happy

Reposting for this new page but the game has glitched in the BFG level and I am stuck in a room with absolutely no way out near the end of the mission.
If I restart the level do I lose all my collectibles and challenge progress (I have every rune, secret and collectible in the mission and have completed all challenges)?
If I don't want to restart mission am I stuck here forever?

The Loadout and Inventory objects are in the Player & Team tab.
If you place a Loadout object in the map, you can set what weapons and equipment you want the player to start with in its properties, then connect some logic between the Loadout object and a Player Proxy object so when a player spawns it gives them the loadout you chose.
It works similarly for equipment with the Inventory object if you just want to set what equipment they start with, but instead connect the logic from the Player Proxy (on spawn) to the Equipment object (give equipment). You can then set what equipment to give in the "give equipment" node in the logic chain.
Kind of a long-winded answer, I know, but I hope it helps.

Ugh, ultra smooth G Sync, 100+FPS, 1440p and instant mouse response.
Causing me huge nausea problems, never had that before. Feel sick after 10 minutes.

AFAIK your collectibles are permanently saved on contact.
That said, you can just blow yourself up and replay from the last checkpoint if it's only a fluke scripting error.

I love the potential of SnapMap, and there's certainly enough there right now to create some great multiplayer maps and horde levels, but what I'm really hoping for is for id to update it with more content and tools to tie it closer to SP.
Everyones already pointed out the restrictive two weapon loadout limit or lack of pausing/automap when playing solo, and that definitely needs a sortin', but it would be great if they could go a step further and add in stuff like; weapons or health/armour pick ups that plop onto the ground directly, boost pads, adding in the missing weapons/power ups/enemies, the HUD/crosshairs from SP, more indoor templates closer to what we see in the story (Surprised there were no gore props or gory environment options considering the SP revels in it), the choice to start user created levels with a title card like in the campaign instead of "STARTING MATCH" and so on. It's a lot of minor and nitpicky stuff for sure, but it would be at least a decent half step if we were to never see any single player DLC in the near future.
