Doom 3, Lost!

[efthimios]

I am stuck. I am supposed to go through the administration office/command to go to the alpha something to meet team bravo. (not very far into the game...)
But I can't find my way there!!! No matter what way I follow I end up at the infirmary. Can anyone help?

:eeeeeh:

Check every way again. Look for switches that often get you clearance to go through. Look for PDA's (sometimes you can't go through an area without them)/
First time I ever see a person lost in Doom3 :blink: . It's so linear :whistle: ... You'll find your way, I'm sure of that 100%.

[efthimios]

Just did.
thanks.

Yeah It's kinda dumb when thy make stupid mazes in such simple games, where evrything looks the same and you get lost...

Never once got lost in Doom3. It is indeed very liniear just like Half Life 2.

in HL it's cool and logical cause they have lines on the wall so you know where you are going (at least in base). "bases" should be made in such a way that they are easy to walk arround. buildings usually have some signs (usually above your head).
in many games buildings are too complex and dont' have a single arrow pointing a way.
for example:
LAB --->
Amroury <----

[Kearnsy]

Or in most FPS situations
<--- Dead end (maybe a medikit down there)

---> Right way ( certainly more bad guys)

Well, in Doom 3 it´s: dead end = medkit or ammo = lots of enemies appearing just in the second, when you are about to grab it.
Everytime you find some goodies, you can be sure, that enemies attack you right before or after you take it. :angry:

well in doom 1&2 in some parts of the maps it was safer to walk backwards because thats where the enemies would apear :D

I've got to be the second guy in the world to ever get stuck in DOOM III. I haven't played in months but I got stuck on the teleporter level. I just kept bouncing back and forth between portals trying to find my way out of the level and I never found an exit.

If anyone remembers the level or has any tips I'd be very appreciative as I'd like to at least finish the game one day.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help at all.

Im' still waiting to buy that game. 30Euro is still to expensive for a game !

(oh! 12 euros on amazon.fr.. Maybe I'll think about it)

Is the game worth buying it ?

[troop18546]

Well you can download it without paying for it but you can also buy it. A great game indeed.

[gregor]

you know which game was really easy to get lost in? Turok 2! too much fog too similar textures... i remember was walking around for ages even with map on all the time. duh. :not_ok:

It is worth it. Just make sure you have a powerful machine.

I second that. I uninstalled the game and installed it again after one day, hoping that this time I'll find the way out. :D (damn switches hidden in ... hidden houses :ranting: )
