However, Kotaku says that the project has been doomed and 'plagued by mismanagement,' according to its sources. It's done when it's done and we don't want people reading more into it than they should.'
At QuakeCon last year, id's John Carmack said: 'Doom 4 is being done in 'Bethesda mode' where we're still not talking about it. When we’re ready to talk about the Doom 4 id is making, we will let folks know.'Īlthough the admission is odd, Bethesda's continued silence on the game continues the trend. 'As a result, id refocused its efforts on a new version of Doom 4 that promises to meet the very high expectations everyone has for this game and this franchise. 'An earlier version of Doom 4 did not exhibit the quality and excitement that id and Bethesda intend to deliver and that Doom fans worldwide expect,' Hines said.
It's been quite troubled-something that Bethesda VP of marketing and PR Pete Hines admitted. Hey, remember Doom 4? It was announced nearly five years ago, so we thought maybe Bethesda and id Software had forgotten about it.
