Dead multiplayer

Does anyone know how many we need to make these trophies quickly? I should get started in the coming weeks and anticipate a server shutdown.

 

 

Minimum 4 players to start a match, maybe consider creating a Boosting Session HERE to get some players together and boost the levels required.

So after looking it's definitely dead, so boosting this is going to be needed. I just hate how you cannot create a gaming session on here because it says you don't own the game. Maybe some people don't want to start the game till they have their boosters, and then they start it up. It's always a risk having to earn a trophy just so you can set up a session, always hated this rule. Well, guess I'm on the hunt for boosters now to get this done and dusted.

If it helps, to "own" the game all you have to do is boot it up once and get the trophy list registered to your PSN account, then earn a trophy in any game after that and it'll appear on your list. Not ideal, but you can preserve the 0% that way.

Yeah, somebody told me about that, and I've got the games online done pretty quickly, thanks.

This is strange. I jumped on recently to grab the plat and found plenty of people still playing. Either the American or European servers always had a match going on.

They’re usually dead after a certain hour. 
 

It’s pretty standard multiplayer which is the classic variant. I’m not sure if boosting amounts to more than just exchanging kills for a long period, since I did something similar to this in Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood.

If you're going for the DLCs it might be faster to complete some challenges to get the armor pieces. So instead of going to Prestige 10 to unlock a certain piece, you can just kill the match leader once you're Prestige 8. If there are people still on during the weekend I highly encourage everyone to just play, the MP is a lot of fun.

I made 3 guides showing how to unlock the cosmetic items and some of the easier challenges to get them.

 

If you boost, you can play sector. Get A and B close to eachother and swap captures without allowing for complete captures. Some people say you can get this done in 8 hours but that's not entirely true.

Hey AJ, 

I did it just after update 6.66. back on xbox. 

 

the cyber-demonic armor requires that you be a certain prestige level to unlock the ability to do an ingame challenge to earn, the other way to get it is get more prestige levels, 8th prestige iirc and your given it. 

 

if your not boosting I found the plasma rifle to work exceptionally well, it's alt fire lobs a large energy grenade and it completely blinds, disorients enemies when hit giving you a pretty insane edge, it also aoes, so if you pair it with the lightning gun you can keep mobile and wipe out whole rooms. after getting the trophies you need with the demons, stick to pinky demon thing, it's fast and it cleans house reliably, and you may find yourself at prestige 8 whilst still attempting one of the challenges from the armor set. if you boost it's much quicker.

I’m also just getting back into this game. Haven’t done much multiplayer myself. I was playing the og Quake on switch and thought to come back and play some more of this

I've also encountered situations where there were more than enough people to start a match, but for some reason the countdown just kept resetting over and over again. I'm guessing that's just Bethesda's servers having issues.

Same. I also noticed that NA/EU servers are completely dead after a certain hour, since I live in the Pacific Standard Timezone. 
 

I have to use AS servers for a chance of finding people, but I imagine most people in Asia couldn’t care less for DOOM, since I regard it as a mostly western gaming franchise. If I do find people it’s probably people from America and Europe trying to play a match.

Yeah, I have yet to see a single game on the Asian servers. Guess they'd rather play StarCraft.

I don't think they were ever into first person shooters. Japan was still making 2-D side scrollers long after the western industry moved on to first person shooters like Quake and RPGs like Diablo.
