I don't see any justification for stealing his work and distributing it before he says it's time. In this case, one of those people is John Carmack, someone whose work has given me countless hours of fun, so it seems slightly worse to me.

I know Slashdot is really heavily slanted toward the open source/free software crowd, but one shouldn't take lightly the fact that this is someone's property and work and that it was distributed without that person's permission. So stealing someone's work and distributing on the Internet is okay as long as it's not completely functional. This isn't a complete software, it's a three level demo

Yeah, why should I buy the full version of Doom III now, when I have a bug-ridden alpha demo that runs at a crappy frame rate?ġ. I do think that this is news, and I'm glad it made it onto slashdot, but I DON'T think that slashdot should be posting mirrors to the leaked alpha (I know they'd show up in the comments but still.) So when it DOES come out, alot of these people have already made up their minds. People play it, it's got lots of problems (it's an internal alpha, what do you expect) and so they say it's terrible, etc when the work on it is no where near complete. If this doesn't happen, then the other extreme does, and that one seems a bit common to me. When people get to play something like this, they seem to think that it's their game.Īnother possibility is that people play it and think it's the best game ever (and when it changes, complain, as above). Then when it's taken out/changed, they complain, when they never would have seen it (or missed it) otherwise. People play it, and they like/dislike a certain feature. One possibility of what will happen is what seems common to me when things are leaked. Let's take this program for example (I'll point out I haven't played it, I have a GeForce 2 Go and I'm not a masochist). Instead of going out and trying to get your hands on it, you'd be better off to just wait for the real game to come out. This alpha is more of a spoiler than anything else. But anyone can see that just by looking at the screenshots that have been around forever. From playing it, I learned that it's a beautiful game and awesome engine, and it's going to be fun as hell. There are only 3 levels, and you can tell that even those aren't polished yet. So I loaded it up, and played it for a few minutes.

Like A lot of people, I even forked over the money for a total system upgrade just so I'll be able to get decent framerates (Althon2000, Geforce4 Ti4400, 512mb ddr2700)Īnyway, of course I was really excited when people on efnet started mentioning an alpha being leaked, and I managed to get ahold of it that night. I was wondering when this was finally gunna show up on slashdot.ĭoom 2 is probably my favorite game EVER in terms of hours spent enjoying it, and I've been looking forward to Doom 3 ever since John Carmack mentioned the idea in his.
