Doom 3 vs Far Cry

[user1234]

In this battle of giants, only one can be declared the ultimate winner

 

[Czar]

both have a great engine but farcry has a gameplay while doom3 does not

 

[BFG10K]

I probably prefer Far Cry.

 

[Whitecloak]

farcry

 

[Modeps]

Dont you have anything better to do than post thread upon thread about Doom3?

 

[Schadenfroh]

see how i have never played farcry and i love doom3, i vote doom3

 

[blurredvision]

I chose FarCry by a nose. FarCry is MUCH more fun to play, but Doom 3 looks simply amazing. Seeing as to how Far Cry also looks great, I chose it.

 

[SpunkyJones]

Doom looks great, and I can't wait for games based on this engine, but Far Cry was much more fun to play.

 

[JackBurton]

Doom3!

 

[skace]

Farcry had some cool vehicles. But I got so bored that I ended up taking a break from the game twice simply because of lack of any direction. In fact, I didn't even expect the ending when it hit. Had to vote Doom3 for a more solid game, albeit criticized more by the general ATOT population.

Farcry! The Doom3 engine looks a bit better in my opinion but Farcry has this neat thing called "ai".

I only finished the first level of Doom3, it's simply too repetitive to enjoy. Every room is a "I wonder what panel will fly open next" event... not much fun to be honest. In Farcry you can replay a save point and get different engagements each and every time.

Now here's a thread I like from you user1234!

BTW... how often do you change your sig? Almost every time I see you post it's different.....

I voted D3... I just like the arcadey feel, and I love the darkness, as well as the sound combined with my Klipsch Promedia Ultra 5.1's... they create an awesome atmosphere.

(I'm one of those who actually likes the style of gameplay that Doom3 offers)

for nostalgic reasons i vote for doom3.

from sprites/dulltexturedlowpolyenv to bump-mapped/textured/polygonenvironmentncharacters.

I like outdoors games with occaisional indoors stuff so Far Cry was ideal for me. Not a fan of overly dark games cuz my comp is in a bright room and I simply can't play dark games until it's dark out here .

I also like scenery that I can use for wallpaper .

 

[CTho9305]

I have much more fun playing a game where I can see. Half Life managed to be fairly scary sometimes and you could still see stuff... Morrowind tombs are really creepy and you can see just fine. Mars has the power to sustain life and run all those computers, but not turn the lights up? :roll:

I agree, even in far cry I preferred the outdoor levesl to the indoor ones, and especially the ones where you ride boats on the water (boat and river levels) because you have so much firepower on these patrol boats it's a blast !!!

 

[legatech]

Farcry is more fun that Doom3.
I would say both of them looks good in their own way

wow, cool !!!! that must be better than any doom character models.
I wonder if the votes for doom where from people that did not play far cry.....

 

[Slogun]

I enjoy both games, but for me, Far Cry was more impressive overall so I gave it a lead by a nose.

 

[Megatomic]

I tried Far Cry, I didn't like it. I had to vote for Doom 3.

 

[Fern]

I voted for Far Cry, and that may not be entirely fair. I finished far cry but am only about one hr into Doom3 (so far have spent more time just twealking it, trying to get rid of sound problem).

EDIT: Played some more last night. I'm liking it. Reminds me of System Shock 2. Easy fix for sound problem:

Sound Problems:
If you have an nforce2 motherboard and you get sound crackling or cutout every once in awhile then type this in the console (ctrl-alt-~ for console): s_restart
or type this to bind it to a key: bind "q" "s_restart"

 

[Todd33]

Doom 3 is repetitive and boring. I paid $50 and can hardly make myself play it.

 

[HostVisions]

another vote for FC.

 

[bunnyfubbles]

neither both games are sub par except for their graphics
