Seems in an attempt to compete with Half-Life 2 Doom3 is getting its own grav gun in the expansion.

seems to me to be just another example of a trend i've noticed on some games; ship the game, then ship the expansion that finishes it off to the standard it was planned to be originally. to people who liked D3, RoE should be on their shopping list. i think it should be an ok-ish expansion, especially with threewave working on multiplayer, but it won't rescue D3 from being the one hit wonder of 2004, as it lacked playability compared to other games around today. mod teams are grinding to a hault ( http://www.planetdoom.com/d3f/index.html ), which is a shame, as it's a good engine. noone is playing D3, i count a whole 38 players online in ASE, and it doesn't appear in http://archive.gamespy.com/stats/ . i guess we'll see a load of D3 engine licencees making WW2 FPSes, again, and doing well.

there was so much potential but the expansion will flop imo
