Meh. rage did it. Doom 2 did it. Getting kinda old, actually.

So don't pull those levers if you come across them I guess? The beauty of options.

You guys are literally complaining about a texture being flipped upside down, that's some turbo-charged autism there.

Welcome to Doomworld, enjoy your stay

It looks unfinished and amateur.
Would you shop at a store with half the product upside down on the shelves?
The rest of the game looks great and polished, that easter egg looks last minute.

I hope the actual unlocked full levels have lighting because the full brightness really detracts from the level structure, in my opinion. If they're just going to slap on old Doom design without any enhancements or modifications, at least bother to make it look accurate.

[Jaxxoon R]

Can we get randomly-flipped startan for the next Comfy Doom update?

[Nineball]

And just like that i re-ordered my collectors edition.

[Trycon]

The complaining about the texture and lighting is both funny and stupid.

Chill guys. It's only an easter egg....

[VGamingJunkie]

It's still part of a commercial product and, thus, open to criticism. It shows a lack of effort on their part, in my opinion, like a Classic Doom easter-egg is just an afterthought, something they don't care enough to actually do well. When you can get something like this from a modder absolutely free:

When time and care are taken to tweak the original design to be more modern and believable without sacrificing the actual design on a free mod and a commercial company is just copying and pasting walls and flats without any changes, I at least expect faithfulness to the original. The fully bright environments really do detract from those levels in my opinion, considering part of the drive of Doom back in the day was being able to have moody darkly lit environments, something Wolf 3D couldn't. The whole point of the copy and paste Classic Doom levels is to enjoy the original design and having such glaring visual errors makes that slightly difficult. That's just my opinion.

Is there a full video of the Foundry level? I really liked it when they showed it at E3 but that only seems to be a portion of a much larger video.

I guess it shows people like you often ignore details and also Red Flag for ablest shit here.

[Silverforte]

The texture is upside down. Oh no.

Anyways, looks cool, the full versions of the levels may be more "correct" anyways. Really cool they are adding this.

[Caffeine Freak]

STARTAN is flipped? How badly could they fuck this up? Cancelling my pre-order now.

[ShadesMaster]

... Unless they PURPOSELY flipped the 'tan to cause the 'talk, LOL!!!! :)

[DoomzRules]

I just hope and wish that they include the entire original Doom remade within Doom 2016.... and you can play through all the levels of the original Doom in Doom 2016... that'd be a nice homage IMHO. Forget about Doom 2. It's all about the original! =3

No offense Doom 2 fans, maybe when DOOM 2 comes out you'll get your remade levels! ;)

You should make a post on Tumblr about it, sounds like you've been "triggered" by it.

Welcome to autism world! Make sure those textures are aligned properly, otherwise you'll never hear the end of it.

Cool easter egg BTW.

[DooM_RO]

Now you can see Romero's misalignments in a brand new game, complete with upside down, STARGR!

[DooM_RO]

I knew there was something wrong with the light texture!!!

Texture misalingments aside, they really need to add lighting to it. It looks so off without it.

[Almonds]

just noticed how the wall lights in the easter egg look a lot different from the vanilla ones.

[Doomkid]

Does anyone else find it strange that they aren't 1:1 recreations? A cool easter egg but that is a little odd.

They should make entryway a secret deathmatch map :)

Yeah, I wonder if the light source isn't working correctly in those areas.

It was probably way down on the to-do list, likely inspired by Machine Game's thingy in Wolfenstein TNO and Old Blood.

[Spectre01]

It's 2016 and people still can't align textures or implement proper lighting. smh

Maybe they didn't look up tutorials on how to correctly align textures in a classic doom map.

[Chezza]

Awesome! I was hoping for classic Doom levels after playing Wolfenstein.

[Jaxxoon R]

I wouldn't be surprised if some level designer threw these together in secret, and the only reason they're even in the game is they were already all done by the time they were presented/discovered. It has that kind of hasty feel to it.

[The Civ]

God damn did they fuck that up bad.
How can they mess up texture scale so bad, let alone putting it on upside down?
And where the fuck did that light texture even come from? Is the original one just lost in time somehow?

[VGamingJunkie]

Doesn't Doom Builder allow you to literally take a Doom wad and spit out an obj? They could have taken seconds and produced something better than what we've got.
