    Looks pretty amazing, still unique enough for me even though they are referencing a lot of different artists, games, movies etc. I really hope they focus more on gameplay. Agony and inner chains were kind of the same games and both were pretty boring to play.

  • Doom (4)

    Some more info about DOOM VFR.

    [Blocked Image: https://i.imgur.com/89D1Lfq.jpg]

    I did a finishing move on a monster that was standing on top of a crate and afterwards I spawned inside the crate with no escape! It was quite amusing really, but only because it was very near the beginning of the battle. I'd have been annoyed if it happened a few minutes later.

    Anyway, just thought I'd post about it here incase @BJA wants to flag it up with someone. I imagine a simple fix would be to replace the hollow crate assets with solid ones, would save a few precious poly's too.

    Thanks for pointing out that bug but I'm not sure if it'll be fixed.

There's a team working on Quake Champions, MachineGames has taken over Wolfenstein and Doom already received a reboot. I want more Doom, but admittedly, I wouldn't mind a reboot of Rage either. The game had a lot of potential and I would love to see that done justice.

    I wouldn't mind a Quake 2/4 reboot either, start fresh, call it Stroggos and kick ass :)

    So many reboots you want :D

    Quote from FMPONE

    20 hours ago, FMPONE said: I actually wrote a short article about the Argent tower level, because it was really excellent, not sure if I'll post it. Want to play through the rest of the game to see how it informs the thinking in it. Question: did they have different level designers take ownership of different levels? Feels that way.

    Haven't gotten any further in the game than that, so I'm not sure, but I suspect Argent will be the best level in the game. If it continues to get better that will be awesome.

    I would love to see that article about the Argent Tower level. If you don't want to post it here, you can also send me a pm :) As for your question. Not every level had a dedicated level designer with ownership from start to finish. Often designers/artists would jump around from one level to another to work on it. For the Argent Tower interior, Jon Lane our lead concept artist had a big impact on the layout since he blocked out almost the whole section in Maya. Designers and artist would then use this as a reference.
