DOOM 3 question
I just made the transition to Mars City at the beginning of the game. When I left the previous area, I had a pistol and a shotgun and I think I had just picked up a machinegun as well. When I arrived, I had a flashlight. Period. What's up with that? Is this normal? No explanation was given for my sudden loss of firepower, and there doesn't seem to be any way for me to advance since there's a shotgun-toting sergeant in my way who blows me back ten feet every time I try to wallop him with the flashlight. Did I hit a bug or what?

Me, either, especially after this crap. I played the demo and didn't like it much, but somebody insisted that I'd like the full game if I just gave it a chance. So I've played it now and given it a chance and I still don't like it.Valael wrote:Sounds like a bug. I never had that happen to me...Doom 3 was good, but it didn't hold my interest after about 5 - 10 hours of play.

I think you should try and make a go of it with the flashlight. I mean, it's got a SWITCH.

SWITCHING was exactly my problem. Omigod, I'm such an idiot. Many mea culpas to id. I'll have to go play a little more of the game now as penance. I was hitting "F" to switch from my flashlight to my last used weapon instead of choosing the weapon with the number keys. Apparently, your "last used weapon" resets to "none" when you change levels.
