Doom Eternal finally is here, BUT has INPUT LAG

I've been waiting for this day for a long time, finally Doom Eternal comes out. And unfortunately I have to say with great disappointment that it has input lag, in chromecast it is playable but it is appreciated, with keyboard and mouse it is horrible. I will be forced to request a refund, it is something that I did not want to say but it is so.

 

Is there any hope that google (or Bethesda) will fix it?

But in controller and chromecast is playable?

60fps?

Noticed that when watching someone play, probably down to not having a keyboard and mouse which connects via WiFi yet.

@Whito Yes, it's playable and 60fps

In chrome with keyboard and mouse also but not ideal. So if you configure some options (like disable vsync and disable mouse acceleration) the input lag is solved in the most of cases

Look to my post: https://community.stadia.com/t5/Stadia-on-Chrome/I-certainly-think-chrome-should-disable-Vsync-for-S...

I was about to pull the trigger but you said lag...?

One guy who live streamed said he has no lag

Lag is not a disaster but it can be appreciated and for a game like Doom it is very important. There is a lot of difference between the latency of Destiny 2 and Doom

For me I tried it for like 2 minutes (the first run) and I had 0 lag... I will play again when I come back from the store and post any feedback here

I will wait for more feedback. The division with mouse and keyboard absolutely no lag... If doom has lag..   I already returned assassin's Creed Odyssey and breakpoint because they had latency and no fps

I saw on reddit a while back that stadia had a no quibble refund policy something like within 14 days and played less that 2 hours, if true and would strongly advise to confirm yourselves you could always "try" it out.

@ARGAH that’s true, I’ve taken that opportunity a few times when trying a game and finding I don’t like it. Never an issue if less than 2 hours play. Not sure what max period of days is for certain but 14 sounds reasonable.

@ARGAH  Good advice, but I never return anything ... even physical things, it is more comfortable for me to make a second purchase than to deal with any customer service that will make you dizzy for days.

I just assume I was unlucky and it is better to throw the faulty product in the trash.

And with a game 2 hours they don't give me time to analyze the performance  :disappointed_face:

@TekoRaiK 

I am afraid to say, it could be an issue on your end. I played Doom Eternal on Chrome (also streamed it) and did not experience any input lag. 

In the Stadia app, it could be because of the performance you selected. I experience input lag in Chrome (on Destiny 2) when I have my settings on "Best Visual Quality", so now I always play either on "Balanced" or "Limited Data Usage" while using Chrome.

So, try making that change. Perhaps, it could resolve your issue.

I I appreciate the advice, but I want (and I think it should be) to play 4K (rescaled from 1800) / 60fps. If you have to reduce the resolution to play well, it doesn't make sense. I don't think that is in my end because In other games I have not had major problems (Destiny 2 perfect, Borderlands 3 very acceptable after its update), in Rage 2 the control was horrible and I refund it

Ok, after playing further, there is no more lag nor latency than The division 2... Those who said there is lag are either badmouthing Stadia or have a bad internet

I have The division 2 AND Doom and on division the lag is very less noticiable than doom, may be because the gameplay of doom is more intense.

Not sure if i request a refund ... with medium quality and a little ajuste of mouse sensibly, it's OK.

I dunno if it is lag or what, but the game feels like I'm playing on ice.. has no feel, and the sound has just been super annoying, i bought it last night, i have played it twice, both for about 3 minutes before choosing to quit...  I am on PC with keyboard/mouse. This game is more on the genre of not being hard, just annoying... I have no desire to try to defeat annoying. I guess, I'm no longer interested in this title.. I say pass on it... A stinkerrrrrrrr.

 

For the record, I thought Doom 2016 was boring. I played it, I finished it, I played multiplayer 2016 until I realized there is nothing more to the game and left.. I really thought the engine would be polished and the new Doom would re-dominate the genre.. But its now 100% obvious.. there is no game designers left in the world who know what makes a game good or care too, everything is about catering to casuals for amounting mass sales... Just dumb artists trying to show off with no clues on game design. I will probably try to refund.

@DrCentz Division for me works perfectly, maybe your internet connection is bad.

@DrCentz Well, this is doom... It is not like modern FPS with aiming, crouching, running... Doom is just move, shoot and move more... Not made for everybody. I play it, kind of enjoy it but not a fan. I prefer Destiny or even Halo 5 guardian. It is the perfect game for the casual, just shoot and shoot. Forget strategy, just run blazing... I tried rage 2 on xbox and feel like better since there is more than just shooting

Using your controller on chromecast there is no lag, but unfortunately on PC the input lag is horrible.

I compared the gameplay to a copy played through steam and the difference is as clear as night and day.

Doom is a fast paced precision game, and with input lag it makes it impossible to play on harder difficulty settings. 
I do hope Google can fix this issue in the future, but for now I requested a refund. :crying_face:

@Veritas Thanks for sharing your experience, I plan to play on the controller.

Since you have the Steam version and you will be used to optimizing games on PC How about the graphics in Stadia, framerate, resolution, model LOD, TRAM, anisotropic filtering, geomapping, lighting, shadows, ambient occlusion, Anti-aliasing, motion blur, filtering,.

What quality can I expect a lot of clipping and popping.?

I'll see the sunny background or have a high level?

I have similar issues with the ID-tech Games, Doom and Rage 2. There ist eine noticeable  Input delay while aiming. All ihrer Games work fine. I am using Chromecast 4k, excellent Connection Status.

Stadia says AAA games 4K 60 FPS I don't care about the devices I don't care about no downloads I want the future, THE POWER OF TERABLUFFS

So I assumed it was the future more powerful than a PC because it was a data center.
