i remember seeing wolfenstein for the first time. My uncle (an it guy) came around and for the first and only time ever I heard him swear "PLAY THIS FUCKING GAME". It was wolfenstein and it utterly blew our minds. It was mindbogglingly good looking. It looks arcane now, but back then it looked amazing.
@AlexFrost9 so cod aint an fps? Plus, I rather play cod 2,4,5 AND wolfenstein, its sad that they havent made any stealth wolf3D's, being its actual roots, starting 2 genres, DAAAAMN, wolfebstein is the most innivative franchise ever, no wolf, no cod halo or bf, no wolf, no sc or mgs.
love how the video goes from a documentary of complete saturated CLASS and un-thinkable creativity.. then ends with an idiot dancing around in a halo suit to garbage mainstream-commercial dubstep.
seriously wtf?
great documentary, but Machinima is completely fucking stupid. they're truely the first step in bringing the retardation of cable television to the wonderful land of the internetz
Make small low budget games with INNOVATIVE features. Big companies get their money from investors, so they cant take risks. YOU on the other hand, CAN. Take advantage of that, make the next minecraft.
That's what I do.. I make very small but unique games and am having quite a bit of success with them :).
I don´t understand why people keep yelling here which fps will win once MW3, Battlefield 3 and Halo 4 come out. I think they can all be great, and with that competition gamers are bound to win.
Unfortunately, ID will NEVER regain their supremacy. Every kid is used to COD and halo these days. And if it's not either one, the kiddies won't buy it. I love Operation Flashpoint, and ARMA, Project Reality, the BATTLEFIELD franchise, Medal Of Honor franchise, I hate Counter Strike(too fast/arcadey, just like the COD franchise) The kids these days have no idea what real games are.
@haters123 yeah kids love black ops because its cod and has blood and is l33t meanwhile portal 2 is great story, original and smart. bassicly kids like black ops cos they can teabag in it and theres loads of n00bs and ur mom jokes. thank god portal 2 is only 2 player
Also with the Impending release of RAGE And DOOM 4 Coming next year.....I Think iD Has it all.....kinda funny how Treyarch/Infinity Ward and iD Are both owned by Activision
@ocarinag33k Actualy yes. ID has planned a sequel to Doom 3 since before its release. They also released a statement around a week ago saying that as soon as they get Doom 4 out the door, that the will get to work on a sequel to rage. So yes, Doom 4 is coming. Where is your god now, CoD?
@george2p Doom 3 was ahead of it's time, but it wouldn't surpass any other games in this time. I hope they make it like the original doom too. Hell, I would pay 60 dollars for a fully redone HD remake of Doom 1 & 2 in one epic package of 1337ness.
this is what doom 4 needs: the original doomguy (stan blazcowiczs, and a dark personality with a touch of hope)
the original badass music with some orchestra moments, the whole universe in danger, not just mars or earth, to follow the story of the original dooms as well their gameplay, lucifer as final boss. i want them show halo or cod like primitive games. =) thats how doom 4 must be
@george2p If any games need to be shown a primitive it's CoD. Halo didnt do anything. CoD on the other hand did something very terrible. It's called Bobby Cotech. And also, I would like them to revive the old, fast moving "Shotgun To The Face" gameplay that alot of games tend to frown upon in the current years CoughCoDCough. lolwut?
halo is cool but its getting overrated =) of course i will get the anniversary edition XD but halo 4???
anyways, imagine what would happed if halo and doom were in the same universe, something like this: that master chief real name was, john blazcowicz, and that doomguy was his father ( it would tie perfectly, the demons almost destroy earth, making all its population to run to different galaxies and planets, colonizing them, in one of those they encounter thecovenant
@george2p I am one of the biggest fucking halo nerds in existence and am the proude owner of six halo novels. I even own the halo encylopedia. I even know the halo storyline down to the second. So sir, all I have to say to you is: ._.
@prokentsful i played fallout 3 and couldnt finish it, it got too depressing to play, but before that it was cool. just dont think thyre as deserving as valve or id and people like that, founders of video games, i think thry should do a non fps develiper, like square enix. srry im typing on a phone
This days its nearly impossible to go same path as id or valve did - the bar is to high. 2-3 guys still can make their cool game, but I don't see any other way than to make it on UDK or CryEngine.

Though I would suggest to start modding existing games and try to brake in the game industry. Yeah yeah, you will develope someone else's game, but its still fun. Trust me.
@dimwalker at least it gives hope that there is still place for originality and its sold wery well it already sold something like 2.5 million copies far as i know and portal 2 is also a good seller i know its from valve who is already big company but im talking about originality right now
My point was - without money the world may never know about some neat games.
Oh and as for the shooters... I love FPS games, but they seem to turn to crap too nowadays. You just press and tap your "use" key and game character does the rest for you 8(
10 years ago it took days to complete 1 level, now you lucky if it holds for hour.
@dimwalker but the idea wasn't stolen from them.All of them were hired in the creation of Portal and may have worked in Portal 2.They practically got triple of what they would get if their game ever had become a success...
@dimwalker Your forgetting the exploding market that is mobile gaming.
heck, I hope by the time I'm graduating, Iphones and Ipads will be powerful enough so I could do a port job of a gaming like Morrowind. Which isn't too much of a stretch of the imagination considering how fast technology is improving
@dimwalker It's perfectly possible look at Mojang all Markus Persson (Notch) the founder and a later co-developer known as Jeb had to do was create a simple engine that could support huge amounts of content then add that content as it was developed then poof a multi-million dollar company. Its all about innovation
@dimwalker Limits can still be broken , the bar can only be raised more and more until the end of time . But only true creative and genious minds can do that ... we just have to wait for the new breed to do this .
Come to think about it, there were those dark ages without ID, valve, looking glass, epic etc its time for some new blood. It was time a few years ago actually 8)
Though I would love to see ID rise again and happily developing masterpieces ever after.
You know minecraft? Terraria? They are indie games made by one or few developers and they are HUGE success...
There are tons of indie games that are success, and you can publish your games even on steam or on any other publisher's site.
Game development > Game modding
And I think game development is more fun than modding... because you are creating EVERYTHING by your self... and then you are done...GOD...There's no better feeling than that...
Participating in mods is a bonus at interview. Also its obvious one should mod his favorite game. Since one already having fun playing it, it would be easier and more pleasant to create custom or modify original content.
You creating EVERYTHING by yourself only if working on small indi project.
In big company you would do something more specific. Conceptart, models, textures, rigs, animation. And its only char stuff.
Developing games feels good, though you should get experience 1st.
@pufixas Practically, when you're done developing a game, you are a GOD in that world, you are free to do as you please and no one will complain, not to mention the feeling to see your game work, your characters move around freely and the way you always imagined. By modding you don't even get close to game development, you are just altering someone's game, when you DEVELOP a game it's your baby and you have infinite possibilities that you can make into reality as you please.
@pufixas Not to mention putting together your game engine, which you can either make it top-class like Unreal or Cry, or you could make it something mediocre like Minecraft, which isn't a bad option considering how good it sells.
But I still think that money are ruining the gaming industry, too much focus is put on the money that no one cares about making an original game when scouted by some big-shot publisher.
That's why Valve and id stand as symbols in the gaming world. They were original.
Tim Willits began his career in gaming as a mod maker and created several Doom levels in his spare time and distributed them over the Internet. id Software was so impressed with his work that he was hired in 1995.
Well, for now I only use one programming language.
I just know that you can use assembly with MSVC++ IDE.
But I don't really know how you can involve any other programming language into your game... I'm just learning for now. But I know the basics, and I know how hard there is to make a good game or even bad game
@pufixas you can use multiple languages in development by using certain languages' embedding capabilities. Most scripting languages allow you to do that :)
Python, Perl, Lua.. you can even create your own language in C++
@pufixas Hello! would you mind telling me what the question you answered was :D ? I'm getting into programming, and I'm trying to obtain as much info as possible :) .
@pufixas since you seem experienced,could great games that might be success material be created with the basic coding language of a program like game maker?Because that's the only one I know to use and just moved to learning C++
OK, so the thing is why people use C++ instead of game maker is because C++ is more powerful and you can make games not only for PC, but for MAC, Linux, and many more platforms. If you will use game maker you probably will be making only for PC.
But if game maker is not powerful that doesn't mean that you can't make good games with it.
So my answer is yes, you could make successful material with GM.
I would've posted longer answer but youtube comments can't let me do that :(
@Gameshunter3012 You could also go halfway and use a language like BlitzMax or GLBasic (Free for windows Development) They're not drag and drop like gamemaker but the language is easy to learn and your compiled program will run faster. They both compile to Windows, Linux and Mac but GLBasic also compiles to IOS, Android, GP2X and HP Touchpad.
@Gameshunter3012 It's basically down to what your objective is, if it's to write small games and sell them yourself then i'd use Blitz or GLB if you want to write the next quake engine or want a job in the games industry then use c++
There have been some pretty big success stories from groups who started with modding, then got picked up by major companies. The main example are the guys who did Team Fortress. Modding is still a decent way to break into the industry without having to learn every single nuance of programming.
Either way one goes, it can be a rewarding experience to see your work in motion when you're done.
I agree, but what if I WANT to do programming, and I want to make not only games, but maybe some hacks, or trainers, or application, or games for iOS and Android?...
I don't know... Modding is not for me... And programming is more exciting for me...
I wasn't saying anything bad about programming. I enjoy it myself and have taken classes in general programming and game programming, though since no one else I know is into it, I've had a hard time sticking with it.
I was mainly saying there's nothing wrong with doing the mod scene instead of programming. Some of the most popular games are simply modified engines from other games.
I've learned a few languages. Most of them are dead languages though like Basic, Qbasic, and Visual Basic. I've also learned a bit of C, C++, and C#. I wish I was fluent in them and a bit more self motivated. I've got some ideas I want to make into games, but at this rate, they'll never get made.
really? Counter-strike is free? Garry's mod is Free? I don't think so... And if modded products would be free then no one would make them because there would be very little or even no profit...
@ProjectEOS nope its true, europe 1200 is free, the nameless mod is free, the trap is free, and i cant mention another hundred's of mods that are free
@ProjectEOS but most games arent free while most mods are, modders usually do their mods for fun not because they need money or some major company order's them to do it
At first I learned little bit of Blitz3D, this is very simple programming language to learn meant only for games and it is based on BASIC programming language. After that I made few games and I realized that by using Blitz3D I wouldn't got far so I started learning C++ from online tutorials but they didn't explain everything and how it REALLY works, so I brought a C++ book. It explains much better. After that I found that I can combine Blitz3D SDK and C++ together to make awesome games:)
@pufixas its harder to make everything youreself and nowdays only few devs make their own engines so its not all from scratch also so of the most popular "games" of all time have been mods to begin with
Heh, didn't play castle crasher, but meatboy and limbo are awesome. GL with your game and post a link here in the comments if/when you have something playable.
@dimwalker It's far less fun than programming your own game, the bar may be high, but put in enough hard work, don't just focus on graphics, give it more focus to the story and even decent graphics will do, what the gaming world now needs is something that will change it, too many big guys in tuxedos appeared there, and since that the gaming world is becoming less and less innovative.
Withe the right idea and a whole lot of time, you can do something like id and Valve did at their time.
incredible.... just can't stop watching these videos, well made and so informative!

Oh and as for the shooters... I love FPS games, but they seem to turn to crap too nowadays. You just press and tap your "use" key and game character does the rest for you 8(
10 years ago it took days to complete 1 level, now you lucky if it holds for hour.

heck, I hope by the time I'm graduating, Iphones and Ipads will be powerful enough so I could do a port job of a gaming like Morrowind. Which isn't too much of a stretch of the imagination considering how fast technology is improving

@dimwalker It's perfectly possible look at Mojang all Markus Persson (Notch) the founder and a later co-developer known as Jeb had to do was create a simple engine that could support huge amounts of content then add that content as it was developed then poof a multi-million dollar company. Its all about innovation

Modding?... Hell no!
You know minecraft? Terraria? They are indie games made by one or few developers and they are HUGE success...
There are tons of indie games that are success, and you can publish your games even on steam or on any other publisher's site.
Game development > Game modding
And I think game development is more fun than modding... because you are creating EVERYTHING by your self... and then you are done...GOD...There's no better feeling than that...

Participating in mods is a bonus at interview. Also its obvious one should mod his favorite game. Since one already having fun playing it, it would be easier and more pleasant to create custom or modify original content.
You creating EVERYTHING by yourself only if working on small indi project.
In big company you would do something more specific. Conceptart, models, textures, rigs, animation. And its only char stuff.
Developing games feels good, though you should get experience 1st.

@pufixas Practically, when you're done developing a game, you are a GOD in that world, you are free to do as you please and no one will complain, not to mention the feeling to see your game work, your characters move around freely and the way you always imagined. By modding you don't even get close to game development, you are just altering someone's game, when you DEVELOP a game it's your baby and you have infinite possibilities that you can make into reality as you please.

@pufixas Not to mention putting together your game engine, which you can either make it top-class like Unreal or Cry, or you could make it something mediocre like Minecraft, which isn't a bad option considering how good it sells.
But I still think that money are ruining the gaming industry, too much focus is put on the money that no one cares about making an original game when scouted by some big-shot publisher.
That's why Valve and id stand as symbols in the gaming world. They were original.

Zaxkcy 4 months ago
@Zaxkcy
Well, for now I only use one programming language.
I just know that you can use assembly with MSVC++ IDE.
But I don't really know how you can involve any other programming language into your game... I'm just learning for now. But I know the basics, and I know how hard there is to make a good game or even bad game
pufixas 4 months ago
@pufixas you can use multiple languages in development by using certain languages' embedding capabilities. Most scripting languages allow you to do that :)
Python, Perl, Lua.. you can even create your own language in C++

@pufixas since you seem experienced,could great games that might be success material be created with the basic coding language of a program like game maker?Because that's the only one I know to use and just moved to learning C++
Gameshunter3012 4 weeks ago
@Gameshunter3012
OK, so the thing is why people use C++ instead of game maker is because C++ is more powerful and you can make games not only for PC, but for MAC, Linux, and many more platforms. If you will use game maker you probably will be making only for PC.
But if game maker is not powerful that doesn't mean that you can't make good games with it.
So my answer is yes, you could make successful material with GM.
I would've posted longer answer but youtube comments can't let me do that :(

@pufixas Indeed youtube tends to be shitty.Thx for the reply.I guess I have to learn C++ after all...lol
Gameshunter3012 3 weeks ago
@Gameshunter3012 You could also go halfway and use a language like BlitzMax or GLBasic (Free for windows Development) They're not drag and drop like gamemaker but the language is easy to learn and your compiled program will run faster. They both compile to Windows, Linux and Mac but GLBasic also compiles to IOS, Android, GP2X and HP Touchpad.
okee9 2 weeks ago
@Gameshunter3012 It's basically down to what your objective is, if it's to write small games and sell them yourself then i'd use Blitz or GLB if you want to write the next quake engine or want a job in the games industry then use c++

There have been some pretty big success stories from groups who started with modding, then got picked up by major companies. The main example are the guys who did Team Fortress. Modding is still a decent way to break into the industry without having to learn every single nuance of programming.
Either way one goes, it can be a rewarding experience to see your work in motion when you're done.

I agree, but what if I WANT to do programming, and I want to make not only games, but maybe some hacks, or trainers, or application, or games for iOS and Android?...
I don't know... Modding is not for me... And programming is more exciting for me...
pufixas 5 months ago
@pufixas
I wasn't saying anything bad about programming. I enjoy it myself and have taken classes in general programming and game programming, though since no one else I know is into it, I've had a hard time sticking with it.
I was mainly saying there's nothing wrong with doing the mod scene instead of programming. Some of the most popular games are simply modified engines from other games.
So either way one goes, they can do great things.

I've learned a few languages. Most of them are dead languages though like Basic, Qbasic, and Visual Basic. I've also learned a bit of C, C++, and C#. I wish I was fluent in them and a bit more self motivated. I've got some ideas I want to make into games, but at this rate, they'll never get made.

@50yer
At first I learned little bit of Blitz3D, this is very simple programming language to learn meant only for games and it is based on BASIC programming language. After that I made few games and I realized that by using Blitz3D I wouldn't got far so I started learning C++ from online tutorials but they didn't explain everything and how it REALLY works, so I brought a C++ book. It explains much better. After that I found that I can combine Blitz3D SDK and C++ together to make awesome games:)

@pufixas its harder to make everything youreself and nowdays only few devs make their own engines so its not all from scratch also so of the most popular "games" of all time have been mods to begin with

@dimwalker It's far less fun than programming your own game, the bar may be high, but put in enough hard work, don't just focus on graphics, give it more focus to the story and even decent graphics will do, what the gaming world now needs is something that will change it, too many big guys in tuxedos appeared there, and since that the gaming world is becoming less and less innovative.
Withe the right idea and a whole lot of time, you can do something like id and Valve did at their time.
