Dont know if anyone remembers the birdman from the Macworld vid way back in the day?

This guy looked amazing. I was upset he wasn't in the final game.

Any chance you might resurrect him id?

Doesn't look that different from existing monsters, really. But i remember seeing concept art for an Arachnotron, now there is a monster i'd like to see a modern version of.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/3djunior/2049260478/, wouldn't want to run into that in a dark alley. Nor a bright sunny field, for that matter.

And please, whatever you do, don't bring back http://doom.wikia.com/wiki/Pain_Elemental, i hate those things more than Revenants.

I personaly would prefer to never see the Birdman in any Doom game, please NO.

The Arachnotron, however, I can't wait for (Doom4).

Also, ToJKa, I don't like that Arachno model, looks reall funny to me, I preffer this one:

Lol, and actually I can't wait to fight the Pain Elemental again, I've always thought Doom was pretty easy, and then when the Pain Elementals came I got myself a challenge more

The deal with Birdman:
I think in fact the only reason some people like it is because of the eyes, yes. The beak looks ridiculous, and the whole shape of the head with "feathers" going back look really funny, not scary.
However, those huge yellow glowing eyes, 2, looking at the player, create that huge fear of a monster from Hell, as Marnetmar explained.

Basically, change the Doom3 monsters just a tiny bit and you can get the result you want. Just look at this Hellknight with eyes and horns (which the creators named "Baron of Hell"), and you get that "nostalgia" back of the classic Demons, which alot of people want back:

(Of course, it'd be cool if they had changed more of the body too, but oh well.)

Yep. Other than the face, Birdman looks really funny. Instead of asking for Birdman, you should just hope that Doom3 brings back the classic style demons with "more demonic faces."

Useless demands actually, if they add anything to D3 that would be something completely different from our desires)

Nice! What ever happened to the Phobos mod anway?


That nice too, looks closer to the original ones.

It still being worked on.
It's been almost 5 and a half years now I believe?

Basically, it's in a coma. Expect to play Doom4 before playing Doom3: Phobos

True, but I'm not demanding anything so I'm fine. I know Birdman won't be added, not because of my opinion on it, but because it was only meant as a tech demo monster.
Furthermore, I don't expect to see any arachnos or masterminds untill Doom4.

Basically, I'm happy just knowing what we ARE getting out of this BFG edition

Actually, Phobos is http://www.doomworld.com/vb/doomworld-news/60141-doom-3-phobos-releases-new-media/, the devs are just very silent about it.

As for Birdman, once again I think he'd look totally badass if you just took the beak out.

That looks pretty sweet

It is alive, but it is still doubtable that they'll be done any time soon, updates are extremely rare, and they've been working for five years.

It's funny, they give as much updates and news as id has these past few months
