Playing on an LG B6 Oled in Game mode, and haven't noticed it on other games. But I'll try out with different modes. Thx.
I'll check it out. Disabled the capture setting a long time ago, guess I'll have to activate it again to rule out the TV.
Yeah, I'm shocked this still hasn't been fixed. These ports are amazing otherwise, but the game crashing when waking the system from sleep mode is a huge bummer.
It does it on ps4 aswell, its not imediate but after rest mode the game begins to stutter and after a while it crashes
There is also Project Warlock, Hedon, the upcoming Prodeus, and Blood had a really excellent remaster this year with Fresh Supply (though it came in a little a hot, but it is in quite good shape now). These are currently all only available on PC (I believe), though some do have controller support.
It's super frustrating for sure.
Sigil is really brutal on Ultra Violence. There is a large jump in difficulty between that and the previous difficulty. I'd recommend playing TNT before Plutonia just for the difficulty curve, though I think Plutonia is better (not that TNT is bad by any means, just Plutonia is pretty damn fantastic).
I mean it's excellent on UV, but it is definitely pretty brutal. It can be quite clever. I absolutely love Sigil, and I've liked it more and more each time I play through it. I'd love to hear your thoughts when you're done.
I'm not. Sleep mode is the one thing you can't debug on the Switch, because activating sleep mode will of course disconnect any attached debugger.
The Doom ports are literally the only games on Switch I ever had this problem. And it's been present since the first release.
You say that as if it makes it easy but it actually makes it even more complicated. That means there's very likely little-to-no knowledge base to go on, they have an unknown bug that they can't debug via normal means that occurs only in their runtime loop and they have no one else's brain they can pick.
While Doom did support saving in network games (which splitscreen is, it just spins up multiple instances of the Doom object class to run multiple sessions for each screen), it only supports it in a very weird way that doesn't allow saves to be efficiently loaded as the whole game needs to be relaunched to load the save, and each player must have a valid copy of that save. Trying to support that in splitscreen, least of all with quicksaves, would be chaos.
Ahhh I see. Thank you for the info!
Maybe. But it is a bummer nonetheless. At least on Switch it keeps me from getting back. I am just too used to play a bit during commutes, put it in sleep, and continue on my lunch break etc. Doom would be that perfect in between action retro fest, but due to this crash I'd rather play something else. (which reminds me that I have to finish Turok as well haha)
Plutonia is very good and definitely worth a play. The last time I played through it was on the PS3 Doom Classic Complete release and found HMP to be really enjoyable on console. I wouldn't want to attempt UV Plutonia on a controller (not that I think playing on a controller is a bad way to play Doom, i'd just have some slight limits when I do). If you were put off by the difficulty, try dropping it until you find something you're comfortable with. If you can find a rhythm for the first few maps, you'll be good to go. There is really only one map in the whole lot that I dislike, and it might be my favourite officially released level set.
I know Doom is the bigger classic, but its strange how we havent gotten a rerelease of Quake on consoles, like we had Doom I and Ii. I would really like to replay Quake and Quake II on console.
Game occasionally stutters for me too. I'm playing on the Switch.
Stutter still happens for me even if I don't put it on sleep mode. Also, I just close the game instead of putting it on sleep mode because I've encountered issues like the main menu showing up which can't be closed or the game freezing after putting it on sleep.
