Bethesda’s Pete Hines has said that id’s “true potential” will be shown soon, thanks in part to Doom 4 and Rage.
Speaking with MCV, he said having the studio under the Bethesda family is a “tremendous advantage”.
Today, some new in-game footage from the prototype versions of the cancelled COD-like Doom 4 surfaced online.
What's cool is you can see some of the animations they kept and revised for 2016.
When you strip everything back you can really see how great the animation is.
It's amazing how far games have come.
For me its always interesting to see some prototype of a game of something else and see the final product on why they go another direction in the end
My favorite is the MGS:Rising vs MGR:Revengeance.(I preferred the Kojima's one)
Another interesting one is Splinter Cell Conviction Concept vs Retail
I don't see what is "COD-like" here? Just because there's 2 seconds footage with ironsight?
The devs were openly going for the cinematic shooter style that was popular in the years this was developed. COD-like Doom was pretty much the pitch.

Whilst the FPS genre has since had a tonne of fantastic franchises, such as Quake, Unreal and Serious Sam, Doom remains at the top of the pile, and has one of the best comeback stories in video game history. Doom is almost 30 years running, and has even bled into other mediums such as feature films and novels. As it has been going for so long, there have been a large number of entries in the series, and there are probably a few you never played. This is every Doom game ever.
If they're doing Doom 4, hopefully they make it better than Doom 3. Yeah Doom 3 was interesting, but it got predicable after about an hour. Amorm or in a dark corner, trap. Ammo in the middle of a room, trap.
Original Doom alway seemed like an impossible situation, not an endless number of enemies jumping at you from the shadows.
Rage looks sweet
Yeah I'm already sold on Rage. It's kind of strange that id has to show it's true potential when they kick butt already
