To forestall an obvious response, we acknowledge it is appropriate to forcibly prevent people from driving drunk, even though it is not the case that each drunk driver causes mayhem, because it produces a situation in which it is highly likely that mayhem will ensue. This is why suppressing non-mari...

Re:
The problem here is that this only seems good as long as they are pushing rules that you agree with.

Meh. As long as 3dof remains a dungeon crawler, as it has through all iterations, it will be of questionable benefit to produce one, since there already exists a vibrant FPS genre which does dungeon crawling quite well.

All of them. It appears particularly badly when a door opens or closes in view, and when more than one enemy is on screen. If you use dxxx and view any of the demos on my system, it stutters noticeably - and it's not framerate. The same effect is noticed during gameplay. I am using the latest driver...
