I just played the alpha leak of this game and I have to say it is nothing short of amazing! It runs perfectly on my system, no lag or nothing. The 9800 Pro does a nice job. I am trading away my 9800 Pro, I will miss this powerful guy :( But Im not going too far, trading it for a 9700 Pro :)

How many of you guys have played the leaked beta? What were your thoughts on it? LMK.

Hmmm, i think i remember playing it like 4 months ago or even longer ago..... We will see with the finished product.

Why on earth are you trading a 9800 Pro for a 9700 Pro? Someone put a gun to your head? Lose a bet? Owe someone money?

I hope you didnt have any lag. Since there is no networking involved what-so-ever.

yeah it runs ok on my system...
it runs surprisingly well for a geforce3
on my geforce3 i ran it at 1280x1024 with shadows off, and i got 25fps
with my radeon 9700pro... i run it at 1024x768 with 2xAA with shadows on... and i get 30fps
the game is a pretty slow game... so 25fps easily suffices

I'm hoping for a new leak soon ;)
That one is old and really in an early stage. A tech demo would be nice.

Isn't the Doom leak pointless though? Nothing is optimized for finalized and its buggy as hell. Which will explain why some people get below 20 FPS. Like what I said before, if they are making the game for x-box then I'm sure it will play fine with a GF4.

Just have to remain skeptical on what level of detail we can squeeze out of mid-range GPU's.

If I keep this up, I'll put in a request for "Official Stomp All Over Doom III Leak Threads Guy"

From another (locked) thread:

Actually, as long as we dont say where to get it from, we can discuss it as much as we want. Ive been warned before, and know the full details of do`s and donts regarding Doom3.

---

Actually, if you discuss it again, it will be on another forum, either because you were smart enough not to post it on ours, or because your account, here, is locked. Your choice.
