who say doom3 for high end only???!!!

[Guest]

I make doom3 demo work at resolution 512x384 with my poor videocard Intel(R) 82845G/GL Graphics Controller. Man, with such a poor card, my computer lags whenever someone uses smoke grenade in counter strike. Doom3 at 512x384, the framerate is not bad most of time. It's around 12 to 30.

after playing the demo, i can tell that the game is absolutly playable, it scared the shit out of me few time, especially in the bathroom. 4 player mp coop will be excellent. In term of physics, the world is not very interactive, i tried to shoot thing around, boxes, cans,etc, nothing react to the bullets, maybe it's just the demo and they haven't implement the physics in it yet, since Hollenshead said thing about the physics demo of 100 boxes.

I heard that hl2 has a leaked demo too and many are downloading it through eDonkey, i would like to give it a try.

here pictures:

another pic, wanna see more? just ask

 

[subs]

nope, no hl2 leaked. IT would be the biggest dload on the net and very well heard of.

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

HL2 is NOT leaked. I repeat. It is NOT leaked



nice pic though. I wouldent mind more. And are you sure thats your Graphics card

I don't know about the rules at this board but the ones I come from you get banned from posting (about) illegal material.

 

[synth]

i've played at 640x480 with Intel82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics (AKA Intel Extreme Graphics) and I was getting anywhere from 2-10 FPS.... And it's not my computer's fault - only the graphics card (2.3ghz, 512 DDR ram)

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

Not here friend. It sounds like your forums are a little strict to say the least. I think he might get either a warning or an eddited post or sumthing. who knows

[marksmanHL2 :)]

set it to lower resolution, it works better, i can get up to 30 FPS at the corner or while looking at the floor or the ceiling. My computer is similar to yours, just 2.4 ghz, no big difference. I'm planning to get a better graphics card while hl2 is released.

 

[nw909]

I tryed to play it on my geforce4 and it didn't have color haha.

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

erm. It doesent sound playable on that Graphics card after all lol!. I mean if you have to look at the celing or floor. But it runs which is astonishing in its self

lets call the whole thing off.

 

[Guest]

the thing i like in the demo is that the dead body can still react to attack like in sof2, fresh blood keep splashing around and the dead body keep shaking as long as i keep shooting it. I hope hl2 can have the same effect.

but the world in doom3 demo is not really interactive, i tried to shoot at the sink in the bathroom, but it didn't break. I don't like it when I can't destroy stuff in the toilet.

See this hl2 pic where the sink can be destroyed by the gun shots.

Details to the MAX!!

If anyone wants, I could post some 1024x768's of D3, at 20 fps!

 

[Prince of China]

What!?! You have no friends?

i can look around and shoot stuff, walk around with about 20 FPS, so it still runs.

u know valve hasn't release a video for almost 2 weeks... well i was trying to talk about the destroyable sink in hl2 that doom3 doesn't have...The video with the car will show some greate stuff about the outdoor environment, i saw it in the old e3 video, it just looks absolutly great, the bridge, the sea, the rocks....

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

heh, i seriously cant wait for the buggy scene. It just looks so much fun!

 

[Guest]

MUWAHAHAAH!

 

[Prince of China]

So...that's 20 FPS?

Ah, I remember that! You know, after that part you won't be able to enter the next room...BUT! They've been to lazy to change the old cheat codes so just type in "noclip" (without the quotes) in the console. I got some bad ass shocks in that next room.

 

[Prince of China]

What I wan't to do is: Turn up all everything, Resolution, Graphics etc... just for fun. My Computer would be really stoned.

 

[Guest]

too bad for the moment, i can't run any new or upcoming games to the max with descent speed, i'm saving up to buy a videocard that could run hl2 and doom3 to max.

gamevoodoo, they released a video last week. Barricade.

I can't even run the Doom3 alpha. I have a 2.66GHz processor, 256mb RAM and a 128mb GF4 ti4200 AGPx8. The game will load up, but it doesn't display any graphics. It just has this blank cream coloured screen, and sometimes flickers. The sound sucks too. This was in 640x480 btw.

Mine ran almost perfect except from a the sound and it lagged like SHIT when I fired my gun at repeat.

Swashing Blow!

Gregory, remember

(Check out the kickass bulletholes on the hellknight!)

 

[subs]

the game was not optomized. not only that but it was made only to run with ati 9700 specifically for demo purposes. It'll prolly runa lot better when its officially released instead of a shoddy alpha.

 

[sranjesuper]

I played it on 1280x1024 res with everyting high and shadows tooo

it was like 15 frames average not bad

I know I might sound like a jerk but may I suggest more ram?

I've got a P4 2.2 with a GF4MX440 but with 1GB ram. The demo at lowest possible settings ran around 15-25fps

 

[dawdler]

Has anyone tried running it with FSAA/AF? Mostly just AF performance that's interesting... What's the point of such a polyfeast if everything is a blur beyond 10m? Not to mention, these images further makes me firm in my belief its just ugly. No high quality textures. Or is it just that everyone takes pictures at so low settings?

 

[oldi1knoby]

I ran Doom3 Alpha on my p3 800mhz, with a geforce 4 MX, and 256mb of ram, I shit you not. I got 12 FPS, but it dropped whenever I shot, and I got like 40fps looking at the floor.
