[QUOTE=PaChIrA;43140466]Wow, Sergeant Mark IV is more of a dick than I thought. Though it does seem like some people are dicks towards him as well. Still even despite him being a major dickhead I still have enjoyment from his mod, though I can understand perfectly why a lot of people dislike it and there are mods out there that are much better. Nor am I one of those people who think Doom should have been Brutal Doom from the beginning. Vanilla Doom is amazing and it saddens me that people will just brush it aside for Brutal Doom.[/QUOTE] As someone who's done three TCs amongst other things, this simply demonstrates why you simply need to achieve balance when set out to do a project, and you allow only sane people to sway any design decisions.
[QUOTE=Durrsly;43139339]I don't get it, how is saying "Don't buy or support Fez, Phil Fish is a dick." okay, but "Don't download or support Brutal Doom, Sergeant Mark IV is a dick." dumb? This is no better than Fish.

I don't know where you got otherwise lol
better than cod ill give it that
It's a shame I only got into Doom about a year or two ago. Don't know what took me so long. 18 years late...
There was a big race on SpeedRunsLive for this event. 40 people participated. 7 forfeited. It was a speedrun of Ultimate Doom
[QUOTE=robotman5;43135735]I am the same age as the game, wow![/QUOTE] Me too!

I mean, I met a lot of people in my life who were much more rude, and if I had to count every holocaust joke that I heard from my friends...
[QUOTE=Dracon;43137541]Guys. Don't download or support Brutal Doom. The creator of that mod is a Neo Nazi, like. seriously a neonazi. He also tells depressed and suicidal people how to kill themselves. Like, instructions. He is an all around HUGE asshole. Also in my respects the mod ruins aspects of doom, makes you too powerful, and pussifies many of the demons. Also he's been banned on several doom forums, one of which I think was the official Zandronum forums. EDIT: The thread where he was telling some guy to kill themselves, seriously. Sergeant_Mark_IV is him.

If you want to celebrate doom, do it with some good megawads or the original game. Not a mediocre mod made by a fucked up neo nazi. To those who rated this post "funny" or "dumb", You should probably reevaluate your views, as it's a pretty serious subject to be very seriously telling someone to kill themselves.[/QUOTE] It's a serious subject is it? How serious should we seriously be taking this serious subject? Because I think we're all pretty serious when we're seriously rating you dumb. Because seriously, you're dumb.
Aaah, remember redrawing maps from that game when I was like 4, my mom who was playing was pretty impressed.
GameFront posted a two-part introspective about Doom back in October, now is probably a great day to read up on it. [URL="http://www.gamefront.com/halloween-special-doom-part-1/"]Part 1[/URL] is all about the game, while [URL="http://www.gamefront.com/halloween-special-doom-part-2-mods/"]Part 2[/URL] is about the community (ie: mods). Also worth reading/watching: Bioshock level designer JP LeBreton's "[URL="http://vectorpoem.com/news/?p=74"]Lessons from Doom[/URL]" (related: [URL="http://vectorpoem.com/news/?p=68"]Arcadia Demade[/URL]), Wired's [URL="http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2013/12/john-carmack-doom/"]Q&A with John Carmack about Doom[/URL], and this video where Bill Gates materializes inside Doom 95 to promote Windows as a gaming platform. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KN0K58EfJSg[/media] I first encountered Doom about nineteen/twenty years ago, watching my dad play the shareware episode of Doom. I had a good fill of nightmares afterwards. I was seven. [I]Worth it[/I].

I got a picture of me sitting on my dad's lap watching him play Doom when I was 1. Doom is the greatest.

Because seriously, you're dumb.[/QUOTE] You don't fucking give instructions on how to kill yourself to a person who is suicidal and asking for help. It's just not right. And you're condoning it. Congratulations.
I do not feel this topic is proper for this kind of thread. Yes he meant it as a "dark dark joke" and yes he said he did not care if the man killed himself, however the guy is alright, I personally talked to him and made sure he was fine. The entire event is over, Sargent_MarkIV might be a great doom modder but he is an awful person and lets leave it at that.
I enjoyed Brutal Doom up until around version 0.10. After that it got too bloated for me.
[QUOTE=Dracon;43143701]You don't fucking give instructions on how to kill yourself to a person who is suicidal and asking for help. It's just not right. And you're condoning it. Congratulations.[/QUOTE] How is downloading a free mod condoning something completely unrelated to it? Does reading Lord of the Rings condone Tolkein's sexism? Does reading Ender's Game condone Orson Scott Card's homophobia? Does watching anything with Tom Cruise condone Scientology? If you answered yes to any of these, you are the one who needs to reevaluate your views.
I played this game yesterday and it still holds up gameplay wise. I remember playing it on my parents computer quite a bit when I was a kid and I was amazed by how great the graphics were. I wish more games allowed for keyboard only play.

Is people really inciting that kind bullshit? It's not like the internet can help or it will actually care about any suicidal tendencies you may have. Of course, there's a chance but save your sermons to people you actually trust, not posting how emo you are and is almost suiciding. This shit is just like screaming for attention. I tell it's good riddance for that Binary guy that Mark said such thing, he fucking deserved it. Nobody want to knowhow fucked up your life is.
Christ, video games really have come a long way in 20 years! I wonder what things will look like 20 years from now... Woah.
[QUOTE=sltungle;43144990]Christ, video games really have come a long way in 20 years! I wonder what things will look like 20 years from now... Woah.[/QUOTE] One wonders if we will look back at the games of today in the same way we look back at Doom today.

I share birthday with Doom, two years after it came but yeh, dunno if that's a good sign or not :v:

Too fun. I love the game. Two decades and many more to come.
You can never have a Doom thread without someone bringing up Brutal Doom/Mark can you [editline]11th December 2013[/editline] Project MSX is better anyway
I truly recommend SAMSARA to everyone who still plays Doom.
