Yes, Doom 3 is special and gets its own release thread. Its fucking Doom 3 afterall.

Hell, when I re-played Doom 1 (4th Episode included) and Doom 2 several months ago (Nightmare difficulty 
), it still managed to make me jump several times 
God I love those games

...oww If thats true they are losing major cash. I remember something like over a thousand bucks fined per copy of lord of the rings tapes or DVD sold before the release date.
But the press it generates for them offsets it, especially since people will come in hoping to get it early, and likely buy something else. They may also expect Best Buy to do the same thing with other big releases, like Half Life 2.
I so wish I had some money to upgrade for this game, it looks sooo purty.

Yup, been on Usenet since yesterday night and Overnet/Emule since this morning. Fully cracked and working, with a key generator for possible online play. Pirates are swarming the damn thing.

I'm somewhat concerned about this, mainly because I plan on buying the retail version, and I hope nobody else gets my CD Key via their keygens =/
At least, I don't care if they do, if they play single-player, I just want to make sure nobody takes mine for online play. I won't claim to have never pirated a game in my life, but I will say the only ones I've ever downloaded were single-player.
Plus, I'm hoping that CRC checking will fuck over people trying to play online with cracked copies. Khyron fucked around with this message on 08-01-2004 at 05:35 PM.

Do you consider Deathmatch to be interesting?

For right now... I dunno.

Wait for the demo They've stated they're going to get a Demo of the game out soon after the game's actual release. They'd have had one out already but they wanted to finish the game before working on anything else, Demo or not.

Actually, there's no ETA on the demo. And the game went gold awhile back, so there was really enough time to put something together unless they're doing something along the lines of the HL demo.

Not sure about that. Last I heard was 'We're going to put together a demo once Doom 3 is completely done.'
I'm betting they're going to be CLOSELY monitoring the forums and watching for any serious issues to hit, and work on patches for any major issues that crop up, for the next week or two after it hits shelves.
It's not something people hear about.

Did they keep Cyberdemon in Doom 3?
I remember that boss fight scared the living crap outta me.

Maybe.
I can usually find exceptional rates on KaZaA, but I really don't like using that for games because they get so bug-ridden.

Ports 6881-6999 are open right? A lot of trackers moved off 6881-6889 because ISPs started blocking them on their side.

Find out what ports the tracker uses. Those are just the most common. It may be that your ISP is blocking ports that the tracker uses, which means you're pretty much screwed anyway.
Personally, I use Overnet for my P2P needs. Can change the ports to whatever I feel like, which means no ISP firewall. Also, you can tell exactly what you're downloading because every file is CRC checked. You can check what the file is called the same thing for everyone who's downloading it, which probably means that its the right thing.

The chance of someone getting your CD key via a keygen is about one in eleventy billion.
I'm getting the game tommarow evening.

In my experience actual download speeds aren't really the problem any more with the exceptions of servers in Australia which suck for some reason, I can download things from the US or Asia at whatever the server allows without much trouble. Latency however still sucks for any server not in Austria, Germany the Netherlands or Scandinavia.
