Has anyone played the demo for this game yet?
Someone at Rage3D ran a benchmark with the demo, his average FPS was only 68.
His specs were:
P4 3ghz
1024MB DDR380 RAM
Radeon 9700PRO
The benchmark ran in 640x480.
This game is going to kill a lot of frames.ATI - Driving the chemical reaction revolution

That's exactly why I don't give a fuck.

I can play shitty survival horror Doom 3, or I can play UT2k3. Hmmm...one is a bastardized retelling, the other is a fast-paced action game that doesn't bogart every fucking resource in my computer....which do I want to play?

You know, iD should just include an infinite loop in the code for those who actually try to run the game, you know, screw their fans that much more.

Yeah sure. I'll send you a gig of files of an illegal leaked pre-release alpha from E3 over IM...
...sure...
EDIT: Actually, I'm tempted to email them to you (since you posted that). Heh, I can only imagine the reaction on by your ISP...

vidiot, get on IRC. I'll send it.
Seems like it crashes when you try to play single player.
Jim is right, this is barely alpha.
If you open the console, you can run commands that will let you do stuff with it. Check for a site with commands for Doom3. I know MadOnion and Rage3D fourms have a list of them.
If you want to run a benchmark, type "timedemo actvate_demo1.demo". But do not exspect to see anything... I had to overclock to 270/230 (from 198/19

to see any motion. And it was barely motion.

heh heh heh :P
Yea, dont worry I found it on irc. But im haveing troubles with it. During the first level I cant seem to enter the 2nd door without a werid error coming up.
Also, I cant seem to get on level 2-3, nor can I see the opening intro or the bathroom level ("map fred/e3bathroom5" in console)
The 2 rooms I can see play really solid on my computer thou. REALLY impressed. Is there anyway to make a zombie stay down thou? Once or twice falling down is cool but this is kinda werid after shooting one three times with the shotgun. And where the hell are you fists with the brass knuckles?! :P I want the stupid face at the bottom of the screen too! This aint Doom! Its fu***** Resident Evil on Mars. Whoo-ho :P At least it looks sweet.
