Re: Wired's DOOM 3 article
[quote name="Ray, of Light"][quote name="laudablepuss"][quote] . . . a multiplayer expansion add-on . . . [/quote] Does that mean it won't ship with any multiplayer at all? Or that it will have MP and they are talking about something else?[/quote] The <a href=http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/22124/>Shack</a> might put your mind at ease:[quote name="Shack"]Carmack mentioned in his speech they were looking at a 4 player limited peer to peer system for DOOM3 currently. That is just what is currently working on DOOM3, however it has been clearly stated in the past, and again to me while at QuakeCon by a couple of employees that there are vague plans for a multiplayer follow-up patch or product for DOOM3 that have not been fully decided on. So dont panic! [/quote] So it'll ship with 1993 technology, but don't worry about that, because it's very clear that there are vague plans to bring it up to par via an add-on, which will be easy to buy. Do you hear me? Vague plans! Ray! [/quote]
