Impressions of the DOOM Beta (Doom (2016))
Pure Halo, well, clean. Only the scenery is slightly different, the maps are closer. And there are much fewer weapons, of course, there is no technology. Pumping is stupid for the appearance of a character that everyone has no time to look at anyway. The colors of the weapon are like from Paint, with a non-default form, many details disappear and the color is very uniform (the only thing that saves us is the ability to add dust and scratches to the weapon). And in general it is not necessary. Close combat works interestingly - it "attracts" opponents with low HP from three meters, cancels the reloading of the shotgun - in narrow places it turns out a hellish mixture - shot-blow-shot-blow. Although there are no imposing tactics, combinations and weapons at all.It seems to me that multiplayer will quickly get bored - adrenaline-pumping, but very crowded. I played the beta in two sessions, after an hour I get bored wildly.
Spoiler
Doom 3 on Xbox was pretty much the same. Only much darker and without newfangled things.

This is not Doom, this is some kind of Bulitsstorm. It would be better if they released a classic remake, with Dirt a ride.
