DOOM3 has multiplayer

[BCan]

A leaked alpha is all you people want to base this game upon. A leaked Beta would be a better one to try and make up your mind as to what the game is really like....


If id are up to their usual tricks, it will be very good.

My impressions of the Alpha have been nothing but good. Same with everyone here who has played the Alpha. Ofcourse a leaked Beta would be better, but I don't think we should expect one for maybe two more months.

Another very good hands on rundown of the multiplayer in DOOM III while at Quakecon 2003.

Some very cool parts:

When you grab the Berserk power-up, you teleport through this tunnel, like a hellish sort of tunnel, and you pop out in another part of the level. And when you pop out of there, you're just a skeleton and all of a sudden your body rebuilds around you. Also, when you die you dissemble down to a skeleton, and the skeleton rag-dolls onto the ground.

There are other cools things, for example when you shoot someone who's in front of glass they'll fly back and smash the glass. Nice.

And on the topic of gamemodes:

Looking beyond deathmatch, can we expect any other modes? Well, as yet id Software hasn't confirmed any other modes, but we think there will be team deathmatch. A bind for a "Team Chat" key certainly appears in the controls menu. And, Robert Duffy was overheard mumbling about this very feature. What did he mean? No doubt we'll know soon...

Wow, sound they don't just really focus on graphics.
