Doom 3 on my puny system

[Xen]

Wow. Just 5 mins ago I installed D3 on my system:
1.2 GhZ
256 RAM
Geforce 2 MX-400
Win 98

I have 11.2 FPS. [img]tongue.gif[/img] I wonder how long will I play it. It runs pretty good if you ask me.

I can't believe it runs on that system, i also have a crappy G-force 2MX, and also 256 MB RAM, and i dare not even consider to give it a try. Same with Far Cry, it's simply not made for low class systems like that. I keep promising myself time and time again i'll do an upgrade, preferably the G-Force 5 and add 512 RAM to it as well, but i keep spending my money on other things, mostly useless crap.

Xen...11.2 FPS? That is unplayable! 30 FPS or thereabouts is considered playable. And I've also heard the game isn't worth playing without high graphics, since you don't get the full effect. I played on full graphics and it rocks!

I'm thinking it's time for an upgrade Xen [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

And Johnny, are you reforming??? Calling Beer and Hash useless crap? OMG someone take him to the doctor

Well, reforming no, but it is useless crap. You buy it, and the next morning it's gone, consumed. A G-Force 5 will still be there the next day.

Yeah, my friend doesnt like the game because it looks too crappy and it isnt scary, but I play it on full.

Yeh Geforce 6800 is a nice toy!

Ross, Doom3 is an exception, due to rather unique frame transition tech, pacing, and all that crap. At 11.2 frames a second, it's more like getting a camera and filming it at that rate, than getting a sort of stop *frame smash* stop *frame smash* stop effect. It transitions at 11.2 as smoothly as one can fathom.

Well, I played this swill and I hate it, I have pretty good graphics but this game just proves once again that good graphics don't make a good game.

Whats with all the darkness... okey it's scary we get it but it's also very annoying... why can't the guy you play hold the flashlight in one hand and the gun in the other, it's 2223 (or something) ever heard of flashlights that can be mounted on weapons? Monsters who jump suddenly out of the shoadows is only scary the first time you know.


Also how about a storyline that isn't so obviously ripped from Halflife... our hero comes to work, all hell breaks loose, frontier fun. Yey...

I'm just hoping Halflife 2 will be less disapointing

Well I still have to intstall some tweaks to turn off some special effects.
