New screenshots of Doom [pissfilter is gone]
- Thread starter DieH@rd
- Start date
oh man, that sounds great.
Well I didn't say public, I was referring to the closed Beta using the code that came with the first run of Wolfenstein. Granted I think those codes stretched longer than the first print of the game, but still it won't be an open Beta.

Super bummed they didn't get him back for Season 3 of Killer Instinct, he does excellent work.
how about those bright blue rooms?
I still think it's environmental. The "filter" in the industrial level seems to be only apparent when the yellow smelting lava (?) is seen in the room. If you look at the rooms where it isn't present, the coloring is way more like the new pictures:
The third and ninth pics in the OP aren't really too different from the filtered shots that everybody points to.
I could be wrong though.

New screen from Gameinformer's coverage, another update on Jan. 11:
this looks like those ATI cards cgi boxart circa 2001
I hope it curses and sounds like a demon from some heavy metal fantasy. Curses in english.

Holy shit it looks SO much better now. It's amazing what removing sepia tones does for it. I dig it.

Kinda wish they'd retained the fatness of the original.

I dont like the normal Shotgun too much, I would have prefered something more like the one in Rage:

I hope we get a new demo soon.
There will probably be one more alpha test and then beta. Though the "beta" will be more of a connection thing most likely since the alpha is pretty damn good for an alpha lol

I always forget this is coming out and then get excited when I remember about it. Looking forward to it with or without the pissfilter.

To be honest if it did I'd sure as hell be looking to turn it off as soon as possible. I can't see that level of DOF being anything but an intrusion during gameplay. I just thought that was done in post anyway.

That screenshot was taken in a source port with an incorrect aspect ratio, they're meant to be spherical. I get a sense from the screenshots that the new cacos are meant to be smaller, but the proportions line up with the original.
Only fools.

lmao at piss filter - am I missing something here?
So what engine are you using?
Unreal 4.1 - it's a newer version that comes with a piss filter
So what pre-order bonuses can we expect?
If you pre-order you get exclusive access to the piss filter
Is Doom the official title of the game?
No that's just the code name - the official title is Doom 4: Piss Filter

They look fat enough to me. The original was perfectly round. That screenshot at the top is stretched. Aside from the added arms, they look perfect to me. Red enough. Green eye with blue glow in the mouth. That's what a Cacodemon should be.

A company being excited for their new game is a huge slap in the face to all the fans that liked their old games.
I can't fucking wait.
I hope it runs well on consoles.

The "piss filter" (overbearing lighting) is probably still in the game, just in the hell level shown at E3 and the ones in the new shots.

Is this a Doom 3 mod?

But from the E3 video, we already know that that DOF effect is in the game... although admittedly, only when you bring up the weapon select.

Agreed. It seems most people here aren't familiar with color grading, which often differs in games per level/area. The "piss filter" may very well still exist in the levels we were shown previously.
I do hope we're wrong, though, because these new screenshots look fantastic!

those dof shots are most likely cutscene stills

Yes, I would prefer much more color variety as well.
Jazzkokehead

Disagree completely - I'm pretty sure the new shots show more than just just a difference in color grading. If you compare the Cacodemons in the old and new screenshots, they're practically brown in the original, but other elements - like the blood and lighting in the background - are still bright red. If it was a post-process effect or simple color grading, everything would be equally desaturated, not just the enemies.

The designs are lacking something. They certainly look cool, but they don't come off as scary, frightening, or intimidating, like I think they ought to.

They need a more classic look. I would run as far from the Doom 3 art style as possible.
