Dad works at id software, ask me anything

ask anything about bethesda, wolfenstein, quake, id software, or doom. wont leak too much because I'm not a faggot, but I can tease or give hints.

How much longer until all these projects finally get canned?

my dad works at Nintendo

prove it, what is the name of the mexican restaurant the Bethesda crew likes to drink at in a near-by town center?

Can id Software go back to maing Wolfenstein games. I really hope MachineGames doesn't make another Wolfenstein game where it's 50% story 30% walking around and 20% actually shooting something.

Tell him the different characters with different abilities is the EXACT opposite of what real quake players wanted.

what projects specifically?

this shit right here though

Ask him what it's like to destroy my childhood

cant say I know that, since I don't live in maryland. idk how else to prove it, but uhhhhh maybe with something more id related I can

Is the game any fun?

OK, maybe you can clear this up for all of us. Is Slash really a girl?

machine games is going to continue making wolfenstein games. sorry m8. it'll be a long time till id makes a wolf game

you prolly haven't played quake champions yet, but they really dont make a huge different. the champions thing was originally planned for q3 but it got scrapped. it's pretty much the only way for them to get players lmao

hell yeah, its not as bad as the community makes it out to be, honestly.

yes, slash is female. dick would make it better tho :^)

This girl is super cute. I hope when they make the next Quake that they make it more of a long involved single player thing like DOOM and use all the Champions from in the story.

singleplayer quake game is likely to come after quake champions, but the decision hasn't been fully made. may be a few years before ones made, or even started. will probably involve some of the characters from champions (definitely ranger). likely wouldn't have slash (the girl in the picture), but who knows.

So Bethesda shit, huh?
What's up with Arkane? I heard Dishonored II and PREY sold like shit. Are they going to be alright?

I don't get much info from arkane since they're prolly the furthest related company to id, but from what I've heard the games didn't sell excellently. I think they sold enough to keep running tho, and with big daddy zenimax holding them through it, I'm sure they'll do fine. I don't know if we'll see more dishonored games, I'd say its 50/50.

sorry for the lack of solid info on that, I rarely hear from arkane.

How about Tango? Does Mikami have any projects in development? He wasn't the director on Evil Within 2

id hasn't made a Wolfenstein game since 1992. Give the series back to Grey Matter or Raven.

sorry man, I got nothing on tango, evil within, or mikami. I didn't even hear about when evil within 2 was in development.

ain't gonna happen, unfortunately. machine games has wolfenstein for now, and I dont think thats gonna change anytime soon.

When is Hunter in QC?

too problematic

How about this?

why did bethesda make a evil within sequel?.

2018 :)

I can answer almost anything on quake btw, if you guys have more questions about it

she will have that skin

>2018
Which quarter?

Whats the plan to rollout a sustainable esport landscape for qc?

I believe 3rd quarter around quakecon, but it might be 2nd, memory is a little iffy. Tons of other good champs coming out tho, I don't think anyone will be disappointed at any of the releases.

esports are currently being supported at full throttle, with tournaments almost always happening. constant balance helps with a flowing esport scene, and periodic champion releases helps with that too. Additionally, lots of gamemodes are being prototyped to see what might better fit esports, like 2v2 tdm and classic duel. other than that, plans pretty much just keep pumping out tournaments and updates afaik.

will dishonored 3 get released

probably. wont be about corvo or emily, their story already finished. if they do end up making it, I'm fairly certain it'll be the last dishonored game. there may be a different game from arkane between now and dishonored 3 tho. either a new title or a second prey, but I've heard nothing about prey so I can't say.

Commander Keen when?
>Inb4 they add a Bethesda character
Let an actual id crossover exist for once, damn it.

report and sage larper threads

Crash from Quake 3 when?
Since QC has an official render of Doomguy's face, can it appear in Doom 5/DOOM 2, since its confirmed that both the Slayer and classic DG are the same person?

About the December update for Quake Champions - what does it include? It has to have new maps as the existing 4 maps are shit, too small and just small cross-sections joined together. I like the game because it's Quake and way better than Doom 2016's multiplayer etc but if the December update is relatively poor I'm not sure how much I'm going to play the game.
Please tell me that they are still working on the game because it's been VERY quiet. They need to get more players. I don't understand what the fuck they are doing about it.

hey, give me key to play qc on steam rather than bethesda launcher please.

commander keen is planned, but not for a long time.

crash isn't coming :[
technically, doom slayer's face is rendered in doom 4, it's just under the visor and really hard to see. I dont think they have any plans on showing doomslayer without the helmet on in doom 5/2, its kinda part of his character.

new duel map, lots of verticality, acid theme like lockbox. I've played it, its pretty damn good, really fast paced but you can slow it down if you want/are good enough. new champion, dont wanna spoil since its so soon anyways. crosshairs. lightning gun fix I think. hitboxes not fixed yet, was a problem with saber not doing as they said.
they're still working, and they're working hard. they really do care about the community and their desires, it just takes time, and saber can be hard to work with.

no xd

>I dont think they have any plans on showing doomslayer without the helmet on in doom 5/2, its kinda part of his character.
Kinda sucks, since the face is something that is part of Doomguy.
Maybe add it in the HUD, just for fun?
Yes, he's a self insert, but at the same time, he can still be his own character.
Besides he aint Master Chief.

grenade launcher when?

>no xd
but you guys said that you will be giving steam keys for those who got into close beta so that we didn't have to redownload the entire game every time for updates using the bethesda launcher. you fucking lie. you don't actually have a dad, do you?

Is daddy a janny or does he have anywhere close to some actual influence in things?

who is the next champion from the december update?

grenade launcher never. new champion in december will have grenade launcher ability. maybe eventually there will be a grenade launcher skin for the tribolt, but I doubt it. tribolt is being reworked to function more like a proximity mine that'll work way better for area control but still not too spammy.

Bitterman from Quake 2 when?
Also, single player Quake (Q5?) when?

New Q1 and D1+2 weapon skins when

How much of lazy assholes are Saber?

do anyone at id like the theory that bj, keen and doomguy are related?
also, if keen will be added, will he been an adult or a kid, who dies with pixels and ms dos sounds, instead of actual gore?

So only one map? But I guess if it's good and totally different than what we have now, maybe that's fine.
Because thing is that I want Quake to be alive and it's good to have a modern version. Quake Live is still pretty popular but I don't want to play some fan made shit maps etc it's outdated.
Tell your dad they should advertise the game more. But of course they are waiting for the right time frame. Now that PUBG etc are so popular it's hard to advertise arena shooter. Only hardcore Doom/Quake fans play it.

I'd get your information and help you out here, but if I did that and if this thread gets bigger I'd be exposed, and my dad could get fired. sorry m8, make a post on the forums or something, or in the discord, or on the subreddit. I dont think they said they'd give steam keys to those who were in the beta anyways. if you buy it on bethesda you should get a steam key. if you're a f2p player on bethesda, then you're lucky because you get to play it without paying.

hes got influence. dont wanna say specific position, but hes on qc team.

grenade launcher guy, good personality, from q3, won't spoil since its so soon but you can prolly guess.

I dont think bitterman is coming, actually. athena is tho. singleplayer quake is a posibility after quake champions, but the decision on it isn't final. may be a few years, but I'm sure it'll happen.

Nobody plays duel though. What it needs is more normal multiplayer maps.

when is the update dropping

Bots/offline mode when?
Will at some point, this game become able to get community made content?

it's sarge isn't it

when is machinegames making dopa2

how do you guys feel about doom mods like d4d or metadoom?

idk about q1 and doom skins, but quake 4 railgun is soon.

they're lazy assholes.

yes. adult afaik, there isn't much talk about him yet, hes far out. ms dos sounds and pixels would be amazing.

lots of maps are in the works, but I'm pretty sure december update just has this one. the map roster will slowly grow over time, don't worry, we in beta.

I actually dont know the exact date, but I think it's earlyish december.

bots are being worked on, dont have a date. they'll be good, if the plans for them remain as I know. offline mode isn't coming, legitimate security reasons. community made content is a ways out, donno if it'll happen. if the singleplayer quake happens, I'm sure it'll have good support for community content.

its not sarge, they dont wanna add sarge because hes too similar to ranger (he was basically a fork off of ranger for q3, but then they decided to make ranger in q3 anyways)

whats dopa2

they're awesome. always love for community content.

keel then

>ask me about quake
>doesn't know about the only relevant quake content since 3 launched

Will Doomguy be in Smash?

hey I dont work there myself, but I'm still giving some info. not like my dad walks in like "hey bud, heres your daily dump of exact information on all quake and bethesda publisher content!"

at least I'm givin you something

no

>no
Fuck, the dream is over

Can Q3 Crash be at least an alt skin for Doomguy?

>likely wouldn't have slash

;_; B-but my waifu is the best thing to happen to Quake since Quake Wars!

>it's pretty much the only way for them to get players lmao
it sure did a bang up job at getting all 400 of them

Did they fire the guy that leaked all the Starfield and GoT video game info?

Where is nudoom 2

I'd like to know this as well

my wifes son works at id software ask me nothing

highly doubt it. they want to keep the characters very much as themselves, which I think is why we dont have a phobos skin for doom or a wrack and sarge skin for ranger.

sorry man, slash is my favorite too.

yeah, the player amount is an issue. december update gives a couple champs a new passive that makes it a bit easier for newbies to move with them, but actually knowing the movement would still give an advantage. hopefully that'll bring in some more. ranked play by the end of the year should bring a ton as well, letting the casuals play against casuals.

that shit was fake. he had some stuff right though, may have been a lower employee that heard some and made up the rest. most of what he said was straight wrong, like the whole fallout and skyrim being in the same universe shit. starfield is real though, idk if thats its name though.

I don't have a date for doom 2/5. they're reusing a lot of assets to get it done quick, but some of the environments in this one are way different so they're making new shit for it too. its coming tho, and its gonna be damned good. may be different than exactly what you'd expect, but still great. I wont spoil much on this one.

xDDDD

will wolfenstein get good? also say your daddy hi for me, he´s done a good job

that episode was shit.Not like Quake has as many quality levels as Doom, but still

Will hell in Doom 5 be more than just rocks and lack of colors?
Hell in the older Dooms was more colorful and had stuff like eyeball switches, souls trapped in walls and the evil eyes over the candles.

Machine games makes Wolfenstein, kill yourself.

When is multiplayer Fallout announced? What about the rumored first person horror game directed by Mikami about necromancers in neotokyo?

>machine games is going to continue making wolfenstein games. sorry m8.

bullshit. after TNO tanking bethesda will not let them fuck up again.

what happened to that mystery game (Game of Thrones) they promise to release this year.

to me nu-doom just feels like devs saying to you "look guys its getting old we just dont give a shit anymore and we have no creative freedom, i´d rather be home playing with my kids"

Would Doom 5 bring back something from other Doom games, like the Arachnotrons or a special hellish weapon, like D64's Unmaker?

can you elaborate on this ability?

some footage of wolfenstein 2, after a while it was revealed at e3, had a song that played before the wheelchair section ended and a nazi jumped on top of bj.
in the final game, the song was replaced with one that is more calm and intense.
will mick gordon release unused or cut tracks for wolf 2?

Prove it.
|What is the name of the third studio that helped ID with dooms 4 environmental assets and map production, not counting the 2 helping with dlc and multiplayer.

Give me the news doc, are Bones and Orbb coming to QC? Also Klesk got leaked a while back but he's still not announced yet, whats going on with him?

anyone at id ever watched death battle, where doomguy fought master chief?

considering wolf 2 just released, I don't have much on wolf 3. I know they're going to make a wolf 3 (but anyone can figure that out by beating wolf 2). maybe they'll learn to make the gameplay a bit more fun, and maybe they'll handle story as they did in the first one. I wouldn't expect it to get much better than the first. it'll probably stop as a trilogy.

will hell be more than rocks and lack of colors? probably not. will the game have more color overall than doom 4? yes.

read the posts headass

they're not working on multiplayer fallout. no info on mikami.

right, and after fallout 4, bethesda will hand fallout back over to obsidian, right? right?

no idea. that leak had a lot of false information, and I haven't heard about any GoT game. starfield is real though.

doom 5 has a lot of creative freedom, keep your chin up user

I don't know about doom 5's weapons unfortunately.

once every 40 seconds, nyx can use her ability to become 150% more thicc. she gains access to milk spraying weapons of mass destruction that make the target it hits want to wake up from the dreamlands.

I don't hear about the music side of any of the game development.

I don't have specific information from the doom team. I'm with quake team.

bones is not, theres someone similar though. I won't say whether or not orbb or klesk are.

I imagine so, but no one really tells me that. that death battle was retarded though and doomguy would've won easy.

Does he know he's working for a loot box supporting company? Why isn't he protesting it?

quake champions is going to be f2p at release. lootboxes are currently in anyways to test drop rates. because of such, in the december update they're improving drop rates to give players better shit. the lootboxes only give cosmetics. you can also get lootboxes at a good rate just by playing the game. if theres a way to handle lootboxes correctly I'd say quakechampions does it.

tell your dad that i am going to rape him anally and give him AIDS for making such a pile of garbage

Tell your dad that the lore system is one of the worst design choices I've seen in a long time.

yessir

they're working on revamping it

Will netcode and synchronisation ever be equal for any hardware spec?

can anyone at id contact sony to make ape escape 4?
