More DOOM 3 [Aug 14, 2003, 11:09 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
With QuakeCon getting underway, there are some QuakeCon Doom
3 Multiplayer Impressions on HomeLAN Fed describing the multiplayer action
on tap at the show. Since some of the first comments on the story below concern
physics, here is what this update has to say on the subject: "Rag doll
physics was in evidence during the Doom III multiplayer demo, including objects
like boxes and barrels that could be moved by weapons fire and a dead body
hanging from the ceiling during one portion of the level that could also be
moved by weapons fire. Some glass windows could also be smash but unlike most
glass in games the window didn’t shatter all at once but rather in pieces."
Half Life was an awesome game back in the day! I loved it! Even the way they started you out on the tram riding into the base was something I didn't expect. But, from a tech view the game was average due to the limits of the Quake engine it was using.
I hated how you could see the helecopters fly and vanish through those cheesy skyboxes. Even Gabe mentioned how the outdoor levels were kind of an embarassment. I don't think he'll be feeling the same with HL2! That's for sure. One thing your dead on about, if Half Life didn't invent scripted sequences, they sure did show off the immersion value of what can be done with them. That and the Marine AI.
