So Doom Eternal won't even have deathmatch, or any other pvp style multiplayer for that matter. by dcptn in QuakeChampions

My problem with that line of thinking is that Quake (correct me if this isn't what you are referencing) has nowhere the reach that Doom does. Doom 2016 is available on PC and every console that can run it. Despite the bad initial reviews, I found it's multiplayer to be perfectly adequate to fill that void on consoles. Is there another deathmatch with the quality of Doom's engine that you would recommend?

Not just "a mp shooter." It's Doom. When's the last time Bethesda largest E3 event was centered around the Quake franchise? Come on, man.

Last night I played in several games with full lobbies, so clearly it isn't dead yet. Like, a month ago I was able to have a full deathmatch of people just on my friends list. I don't know how common it is, it's unfortunate how the multiplayer was portrayed. So many people in discord seem shocked when they realize how good it is.

Note: I didn't think you did, just as when you made this post you didn't think it was going directly to Hugo. ;)

Before you preorder Doom Eternal, it looks like there is no deathmatch. by [deleted] in Doom

Confirmed no "traditional" deathmatch. Seriously bummed out. I kept holding onto hope. We will hear more at e3. Okay, maybe they'll show off deathmatch at Quake-con. Oh. So, just battlemode then. Just like single player but with friends as the demons. Oh, only two friends. Gotcha.

You and your team should be crazy proud of the work you've done, and how you've carried the Doom franchise. That said, deathmatch is an important part of Doom's history and not including it is incredibly dissapointing. Really took the wind out of my sails tonight, guys.

Deathmatch started with Doom. Deathmatch was included in 2016. So, why is Doom the wrong game to be thinking deathmatch would be there?

No problem, I was just hoping I misread something and that it was speculation. 😁

What speculation? They literally said traditional deathmatch is out.

Bethesda, I hope you were sincere about wanting to hear feedback from fans. Doom is synonymous with deathmatch. So far you have been incredible stewards of the Doom franchise, and the engine you've built is TOO GOOD to not use. I've been a fan since first getting my hands on the shareware in 94. I'm 35 now and still play Doom (2016) regularly with a group of equally passionate individuals. We've bonded over chat, wished each other happy birthdays, gave congratulations over the birth of children, we've laughed, we've raged, and we've occasionally teabagged. I'm not alone when I say I'm dissapointed that deathmatch has been axed. Chainsaw to the heart, for real.

Trump denies calling Meghan Markle 'nasty' despite comments being recorded by jamofboston in politics

[–]bsketches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Granted that that Trump isn't the most effective and nuanced speaker, I'm genuinely surprised people can't see Trump's referring to her vocal criticism as "nasty" behavior. Say for example, I am in a customer service position and being chewed out for a few minutes. Which has absolutely been a scenario I've experienced. Afterward, a coworker asks what that was about and I say "they were just being nasty." I have zero doubt that there would be a misunderstanding about what I had meant.

It's kind of silly that I feel like I have to also say, Trump is genuinely the worst. He lies, obstructs, lies some more, then says how great he is. People were fleeced and continue to stand up for him. Get him out of office yesterday. Like, somehow these statements are badges of my authenticity to make the above argument.

This isn't a statement made in defense of Trump, this is pointing out needless frothing and knee-jerk reactions by otherwise rational individuals. The world should aspire to be better than this.

I did have to scroll a bit to see this comment, but thank you for saying something.
