QuakeCon 2003 Coverage - More On Doom III

Posted by simoniker on from the in-the-mood-for-doom dept.

Thanks to GameSpy for their series of reports from this year's QuakeCon, currently being held in Dallas, Texas. As well as a general preview article and a set of pictorials on the massive LAN party, the first-day reports focus on in-depth multi-player impressions of Doom III. The preview talks of "'per-pixel hit accuracy' - it's now possible to watch a rocket pass under a player's arm" and singles out "the ragdoll effects produced when hitting players with the rocket launcher, sending them flying in every direction" for the up to four-player deathmatch modes set in a Martian industrial facility.

    There won't be, unfortunately. :(

    Check out Clive Barker's Undying. It's a First-Person horror game and it's in the bargain bin.
