The main problem with the Doom 3 flashlight is that it doesn't behave like a real flashlight at all. Reflected light should fall off in apparent brightness with the sqare of the distance from the source. At 20 feet, a flashlight should appear only one-fourth as bright as it does at 10 feet. But the D3 flashlight doesn't appear to get dimmer with distance at all, so there's never any sense of peering into the gloom. It's like carrying around one of <a href="http://www.forestry-suppliers.com/product_pages/view_catalog_page.asp?id=6215">these</a>, only even better, because it doesn't totally blind you up close.[/quote] The flashlight does actually does get dimmer over (Pretty Large) distances, there's just many areas in the game you can actually this happen.
