DOOM 3 Deathmatch Playable at QuakeCon 2003 is the press release announcing that id Software's upcoming shooter will be on display at the upcoming LAN extravaganza (thanks Tim Kraemer). Here are a couple of bits:

Prepare for DOOM 3(TM)! id Software(TM) and Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI - News) are bringing DOOM 3 to QuakeCon 2003. The world's most legendary multiplayer gaming event will host the first-ever opportunity for fans to play DOOM 3 multiplayer. In Dallas at the Adam's Mark Hotel from Aug. 14 - 17, QuakeCon attendees will go toe-to-toe at the Activision/id Software booth in the ultimate sneak preview of the most anticipated game ever.
...
QuakeCon attendees will have the chance to play DOOM 3's four-player Deathmatch on a level co-developed by id Software and U.K.-based developer Splash Damage, Ltd. Splash Damage has most recently worked with id Software on Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, and will be co-developing DOOM 3's multiplayer levels.

Aw, damnit. There's not enough whining about "4 player only!?" deathmatch in this thread. Maybe people are starting to realize, that first they bitch and moan about id never doing anything different, then suddenly when id DOES do something different, they bitch about the change?

Four player DM (in Doom3) could work out nicely, quite nicely. More detailed environs, light and shadow, slower pace, etc. The atmosphere could be (read: COULD BE) perfect for it. I just hope there are good bots (out of the box). There will of course be other games out there that still offer large scale team play.
