Doom 3 Q&As

[SAS]

Feast your eyes on these three Doom 3 Q&As from Gamespot, Gamespy and IGN.

GS: Will there eventually be a way for more than just four players to engage in a Doom 3 multiplayer game?

TH: That's just an artificial limit that we set. You are going to have to have a powerful server to have more than just four people playing on it. People's network connections are going to matter. Doom 3 is basically a broadband-only game. When you start adding clients, you're going to start adding traffic, and you're going to add latency and performance hits on the server. I have no doubt that one of the first mods for Doom 3 to come out will be eight-player Doom 3. But it's my guess that eight-player Doom 3 will be most effectively played on LAN servers.

Hopefully someone will make some good co-op mods.

aye. Would very much like to see a co-op mod for D3 as the game itself seem focused on single player.
