Bestheda Game Days Stream of Doom Eternal

Crucible basically seems to function like a portable berserk attack on 3 charges.  I wonder how scarce the charges for them are, since it seems it just one-shots any demon. It does seem to replace the BFG as the "fuck you" weapon, hence why the BFG got moved to the weapon wheel with the Crucible taking up a primary bind instead.

 

The animation looks really fast but I think it's because Hugo has the glory-kill speed rune maxed out.

It's pretty normal to find last-minute tiny bugs like those popping up towards the end of development, like sudden zits on your face. It seems like an older build of the game since they said the BFG was fixed already.

All I know is berserk better still be in this game!

it is! along with quad damage and haste, although the quad and haste are now called onslaught and overdrive respectively. =)

but why would they rename quad damage onslaught? the name of quad damage is iconic and does exactly what it says. also, for overdrive it is justified because i remember hearing somewhere that not only does it make you faster, it also gives infinite ammo while in use.

What bothers me more is why did they put Quad Damage, a QUAKE idea, into Doom, in the first place? Quake came AFTER Doom, and yet they nicked ideas from their own games to put into sequels. AND, if I remember rightly, Doom 2016 still had Berserk as well!! WTH??

Same house holders IP (iD software) so they can have same ideas bettwn frachise.

The BFG it's on Quake 2 and nobody say it's a bad thing, even Doom and Quake have this idea for multiple dimensions, they can share the name of the powerup lol.

But they just want to change the name because it's not actually Quad Damage, but triple damage ( duh)

Good point, I forgot about that. It's also technically in Quake 3 Arena, but it works differently there.

Yeah, I've seen people complaining about Quad Damage in Doom 2016 before, and it always confused me. Quake and Doom have been swapping ideas for ages, because, yes, same devs (mostly). I mean, long as we're going to complain about Quad Damage in Doom, let's fuss about the following too: 

 

- Doom 2016 has a railgun (Gauss rifle)

- Quake 1 (expansions onward) has cyborg demonic entities. 

- Quake 1 is about human portal tech backfiring horribly. 

- All Quake's have SSG's. In fact, Quake 2's arsenal is basically the Doom arsenal, with the exception of the Rail gun and grenade launcher/ solo grenades. 

- Quake 2 and 3, as noted, have BFG's. 

- Quake 3 has a chainsaw (well, buzz saw, but basically, the gauntlet).

Wonderful, you found another reason to be "disappointed" Doom 2016 is such a bad game right??

The Maykr building in that Hell levels looks more "ancient" and close to some of the stuff seen in Empyrian from 2016 than the tech heavy stuff we've seen from Eternal.

Making me hope their world and theme has more variety.

Spoiler

The art book even showed what appeared to be a Maykr themed room/area in what may be the top of the Tower of Babel.

edit: also speaking of taking stuff from Quake, i hope Crash and Phobos are actual characters and if Quake can have Jesus, so should Doom.

Any watch the Battlemode stream?  I wasn't too interested but after watching, some of the strategies were pretty cool, so I might have to give it a go.

With all the customisation options they have I'd say proper/real(?) DM's are coming.

This game is going to be packed with an insane amount of content.
