[E3 2015] New ‘Doom’ Trailer, Multiplayer Details
Forget what I said, an identity crisis isn’t the biggest problem id Software is facing with their upcoming reboot of the Doom franchise. The real issue is who’s going to clean up the bloody mess of severed limbs and demon giblets that a certain well-armed space marine is leaving in his wake. I almost feel bad for all those monsters.
If you missed it, Doom is coming Spring 2016 to PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Bethesda showed off about eight minutes of footage at their press conference earlier tonight, and now we have some more, starting with this new trailer.
As for those other details I promised, let’s start with some new revelations regarding the single-player campaign, which Bethesda has revealed will be at least partially set in Hell. Pinky, Cacodemon, Cyberdemon and Mancubus have all been confirmed, as have the double-barreled shotgun, chainsaw and rocket launcher that we’ll be using to mow them down.
Three of the game’s multiplayer modes have also been confirmed, including Domination, Freeze Tag and Clan Arena. The UAC facility will serve as the location for one of the maps.
Doom will also come with built-in modding tools with Snapmap, which they promise will be extensive enough for skilled modders while remaining accessible to the less technically inclined folks such as myself. Snapmap lets anyone build and instantly share their creations with the rest of the Doom community.
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that actress Daveigh Chase has passed away at just 35 years old. The news was first reported by TMZ this afternoon.
The outlet reports, “The actress’ boyfriend, Roy Hernandez, tells TMZ … Daveigh died Tuesday from meningitis and an infection in her blood, which caused her to have septic issues and led to her body shutting down.” The website’s report continues, “We’re told Daveigh had been admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles earlier this month because of malnutrition.”
Here in the horror world, a young Daveigh Chase memorably played Samara in Gore Verbinski’s 2002 horror movie The Ring, the American remake of the Japanese horror hit.
Far outside the horror world, Daveigh Chase voiced Lilo in the 2002 animated movie Lilo & Stitch, a character she continued to voice in various animated spinoff projects.
Chase also appeared as Samantha Darko in the 2001 classic Donnie Darko, later returning to play the sister of Donnie Darko in the 2009 spinoff movie titled S. Darko.
Daveigh Chase’s resume also includes roles on the TV shows “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” “Charmed,” “ER,” “Touched by an Angel,” “CSI,” “Cold Case,” and 32 episodes of “Big Love.”
Chase appeared in the films The Rats, Silence, Carolina, Beethoven’s 5th, Yellow, Little Red Wagon, Transference, Killer Crush, Jack Goes Home, and American Romance.
We send our deepest condolences to Daveigh Chase’s family, friends, and fans.
