From watching on Youtube, it does look like the game could be easier in certain ways on PC. The ability to quick switch between numerous weapons isn't possible on console, but I was still able to manage. I think the difficulty level with this game is more based on gameplay styles. If you try to play it like a typical shooter we've all become accustomed to (Call of Duty, etc) where you stay in one area and try to pick off enemies, you're not going to be successful. You need to keep moving, keep alternating between best weapons for the situatin, and keep using your various forms of equipment to get ammo, armor, and health.
Heard they updated it, added a thing where demons that kill you will be transported into other games with buffs attached. Prepping for invasion mode where people can go into other peoples SP games and try to kill the slayer in the campaign.
Then I heard they forced some anti-cheat system. Weird and unnecessary since this is mostly a SP game and as far as I can tell, MP wasn't affected. People are apparently having issues after this update too. Some are experiencing slow downs in the framerate never before experienced. I suspect they may have to do what I did and download a game ready driver from Nvidia. After the update I couldn't even get the game started, but the updated game driver got it open, and playing one of the master levels, the experience felt smooth to me.

DooM 2016 was so easy to get the Dev Console and turn on God Mode this is bulls***.
It's my understanding this is another ring-0 anti-cheat like Valorant lmao. I'll be passing on this game until it's gone, but even then who's to say they won't just add it in afterwards?
Played it (not the DLC) last night for a couple of hours... This far it's not overly hard imo (playing on easiest difficulty) and there's extra lifes this time around too... Maybe it starts getting worse further into the game?
Wait till you hit the floor is lava gameplay sections where you’re also fighting a bunch of flying enemies...
Oh yes. It does hard to punish you. Even on the easiest difficulty.
We need that damn next gen patch so I can finally finish the first expansion and then play this one!
Tomorrow. I was hoping we'd get the next gen upgrade before this released, I guess the day isn't over yet!

oh hell yeah. Might have to take a peep and see the improvements. Game already looked really good, 4K is a nice addition
Geebus, that's a large one. I wonder if it'll replace some files and not significantly increase the overall file size. I've noticed something similar with the Cyberpunk updates.
I think its time I take on the forces of hell. It should be even more fun using the Wireless Headset to feel the bass in my bones and revel in the screams of demons.
You wouldn't think so just due to the way cloud saves and what not take place. Probably just need to force the update if it didn't update already.
Edit: Wait you're not on XBox anymore are you?
It does write over the existing file. Ray Tracing mode looks really nice, I prefer it to balanced at the moment. They even provided a free ray tracing skin for the Ballista so you can walk around with ray tracing in front of you at all times, haha.
