COMBAT INSTINCT 3

[@AdamChristensen]

I think this is a good move for the channel and part of a larger exodus in the DoomTuber scene. Clippy Clippington is also switching things up and will be a Minesweeper channel now. Good times!

[@BeefGeeTV]

Doom was good for it's time but there were better games made since, Combat Instinct being but one example.

[@ryans5615]

Finally! I was wondering when you were going to get over your Doom streak!

[@BeefGeeTV]

I got pigeonholed as a Doomtuber but I always wanted to be an FPS flash games tuber :)

[@CIinbox]

Thanks for another entertaining playthrough. I was giggling like a madman every time the slasher guys got to you 😂. I admire your shotgun-only attempt. I couldn't win that either. You're supposed to hold down the mouse for the plasma cannon. It's like a full auto rocket launcher with smaller splash damage.

I really like the cool random shit you bring out! Never knew this was a thing but it looks kinda cool!

[@EuryBartleby]

What I remember most when I see these, is that they felt like they were next gen. Like this was Flash 2.

[@BeefGeeTV]

yeah, totally! I remember Combat Instinct 3 felt like a quantum leap for flash games. But then funnily enough some of Tom Fulp's games started to feel like an even bigger leap, like alien hominid and dad n' me.

@@BeefGeeTV Tom Fulp was an amazing action script programmer. Unlike myself ;)

[@drPeidos]

@@CIinbox I really don't know and I'm just curious. Was flash programming like a hobbie that you did on your free time, or was it like your job at that time? You may not be amazing, but you don't seem to be bad. The game looks pretty good.

[@hrnekbezucha]

Nice end of the saga. It's really well made, especially considering how restrictive flash is/was to work with.

[@BeefGeeTV]

flash could do quite a lot of complicated stuff because actionscript was pretty powerful IIRC. But still, I agree much harder than modern gamemakers like unity/unreal etc.

[@CIinbox]

@@BeefGeeTV I was terrible at action script. Almost all the 'programming' was done in keyframes themselves, almost all of it being 'goto' and 'telltarget' commands. Did you think your health % is a variable? Nope, keyframes :D. With CI3 being a more randomized experience every time you play, it resulted in a lot of jank that I just couldn't work around.

[@Darkrune365]

And that's the trilogy done and dusted. I always did like that combination gatling gun/rocket launcher design.

[@BeefGeeTV]

definitely a cool idea. Makes for some gnarly moments in the cutscenes.

[@walden6347]

Lol I didn't even know there was a third one. Happy to see the flash game playthrough return on April 1st, as is tradition. Just curious, but when can we expect to see the next Doom II RPG video?

[@BeefGeeTV]

Hopefully soon :)

[@ikagura]

Feels so nostalgic!!!

[@drPeidos]

It does look like Halo, very cool. Hope you get better soon.

[@CIinbox]

I do remember being hyped by Halo when I made this. That game was still in development back then. The promotional material they put out had definitely influenced the look and feel of combat instinct 3.

[@drPeidos]

@@CIinbox This is great to know. Thank you for telling it. I do love the aesthetics.
