15 anos de Doom
Por Vexille || 09:11 || 10 de dez. de 2008
É, minha gente, hoje é aniversário dessa obra prima! :festa:
Hoje fazem 15 anos que Carmack e Romero fizeram um pacto com o capeta, como diziam as lendas nerds. Na época que 486 era máquina do futuro e eu pensava que o shareware era o jogo todo. Na época que FPS bom tinha um 3x4 do protagonista no HUD e que se podia copiar músicas de metal pra colocar de trilha sonora. Na época que podia botar um jogo cheio de boneco empalado e os bichos que tu matava se desmanchavam em sangue e ficavam lá em vez de sumir. Dava pra fazer uma parede de cadáver. Bons tempos que não voltam mais.
Doom, você foi um verdadeiro patriota. Que todos tenham em mente sua superioridade. Que John Carmack perceba os caminhos errados que tomou na sua vida. Que Doom 4 limpe o nome da franquia, da ID e do próprio Carmack. Que Doom 4 também tenha fotinha 3x4 e que a história só venha no manual. Que os FPS's de hoje em dia aprendam suas lições com o verdadeiro mestre.
Em comemoração a este dia mais do que importante, copypasta Doom, fatos sobre o Doom Guy, vídeos saborosos, informações divertidas sobre a trilha sonora e uma promessa minha de terminar o Dossiê John Carmack muito em breve.
Basically DOOM 1 was "Oh shit we're invaded" then everyone dies except you. Since you can't fly the shuttle back to Earth to save yourself, you decide to try to clear out the base.
You kinda do, except you get ambushed and die. Because the base on Deimos is actually a part of hell now, that's where you "respawn" in hell.
You clear out THAT base and its new commander and actually go to the outer levels of old school hell. Again, you clear THAT shit out, holy shit, and kill the guy leading the invasion on mars. The guy leading Hell basically gives you a teleporter to earth so that you'll stop messing shit up. That's right, HELL BROUGHT YOU BACK TO LIFE BECAUSE YOU KICKED ITS ASS.
Then you teleport to earth and OH SHIT DEMONS ARE HERE TOO! Apparently you meet the last few survivors and get them onto a space ship so they can get the fuck out of dodge. The problem is, the base where the launch button is? Overrun by demons.
You clear THOSE demons out, launch the ship and save humanity. You're such a stone cold badass holy shit. Because you're tired as fuck, you decide to lie down and rest. Then some douche commander says "So yeah, thanks and all. Oh yeah, we found out where they're coming from. Its your hometown." So you get the fuck back up.
THEN you fight your way to your hometown and find where the demons are coming from. Do you go through the portal? Shit yeah you do, holy shit there are still demons to kill motherfucker.
So you fight your way through the SERIOUS part of hell, then kill SATAN. Unless Plutonia/TnT are considered canon. Then its just some bigass guy that's like Satan's best friend, and you never kill Satan.
And that is why the Doomguy is the single most powerful human in the history of all games everywhere. Even fucking jrpg faggots need a group of 3 people to kill God. By himself. Doomguy does it without magic or friends and kills Satan + whoever the fuck is close to Satan at the time.
Here's something you DIDN'T know about the Doomguy:
His maximum run speed is 819.52 map units / second.
Approximately 32 map units is equal to one meter (based on the guy's height in terms of map units)
Therefore he runs at 25.61 meters per second, this is equal to about 57.2879 MPH.
The current world record for the 100 meter dash is held by Usain Bolt: 9.69 seconds. The Doomguy can run this in 3.905 seconds, 148% FASTER than Usain Bolt.
The DOOMGUY is capable of outrunning a Lion, and maintaining that speed indefinitely.
Bear in mind that the DOOMGUY can do this with, in all probability, 200 pounds of equipment.
Also:
DOOM uses two bytes to measure sector height, allowing for a maximum value of 65536 units, or a height value between -32768 and 32768. Assuming that Doomguy jumps from one sector at maximum height minus his own player height (56 units) to an adjacent sector at minimum height, he would fall 65480 units. Now, Doomguy takes no falling damage, at least not from any distance the DOOM engine can generate, so this means that he can take a fall of at least two kilometers and not sustain any damage whatsoever.
The Doomguy is the strongest video game character ever.
You know that sound effect that plays at the beginning of Icon of Sin (Baphomet level)? Reverse it and you get
"to win the game you must kill me, John Romero."
Cheat your way behind the face on the wall and you find John Romero's head. IIRC he has 250HP. This is what you have to kill to win the game, by shooting explosives through the hole in Baphomet's forehead.
Several of the music tracks are covers of songs by famous heavy metal bands. Although the covers were done without permission, none of the bands has attempted to bring legal action against id Software. According to Romero, Prince, who was previously a lawyer, "knew the legal amount of sampling that he could do without getting into trouble". Users of the Doomworld forum have compiled the following list:

Doomguy matando um Cyberdemon no murro
Repercussions of Evil!
Se tu for um viado que não aprecia os gráficos belos de Doom ou se tiver medo de motion sickness, baixe o source port do Doomsday. Dá pra mudar umas frescuras como poder pular e deixa o jogo bem belo. Pode usar os sprites do jogo mesmo ou os modelos 3D feios do port.
Veja fotos aqui porque eu to com preguiça de dar resize pra poder colocar aqui.
