Oh hey, this is that alpha that was unearthed not that long ago. Neat.
does anyone get a discount on the main game if you played the alpha?
Looks very wolfensteiny with those corridors. Awesome how they moved onto more open spaces later

-snip, I'm an idiot-
That HUD was so bad.
[QUOTE=lonefirewarrior;48969644]That HUD was so bad.[/QUOTE] Who knows, if it was kept and the game was successful in some alternate timeline, maybe overly-detailed and cluttering HUDs would've been more popular / common.

Crazy how Half-Life 1 came out 5 years after this and then Half-Life 2, 6 years after that. So much innovation.

What are those little meters on the side of the hud?
You think that's an old build of the alpha? There's v0.2 [IMG]https://tcrf.net/images/9/95/DoomPCtechdemo-texturechange.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://tcrf.net/images/c/cc/Doomtechdemotitlescreen.png[/IMG]
[QUOTE=Makzu;48971375]What are those little meters on the side of the hud?[/QUOTE] Doom was supposed to be more rpg-y, so those are probably stats (there is also an inventory, apparently). And then Tom Hall got fired.
[QUOTE=theevilldeadII;48970710]uh thatès DOOM 1[/QUOTE] That was the joke.
[QUOTE=Tuskin;48972841]That was the joke.[/QUOTE] I was going to say a Doom dungeon crawler would be pretty cool, but then I remembered that [URL="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/doom-ii-rpg/id354051766?mt=8"]it does exist[/URL].
Well I guess I can kiss my autographed hintbook goodbye. Thanks NDA breaker.
[QUOTE=RikohZX;48970465]Who knows, if it was kept and the game was successful in some alternate timeline, maybe overly-detailed and cluttering HUDs would've been more popular / common.[/QUOTE] wouldn't have happened, as FPS games (and all games in general really) have gone on interfaces have become more and more refined.
