Those hoping id Software would today reveal more information about the next Doom entry are bound to be disappointed, as CEO Todd Hollenshead used this year's QuakeCon press conference to promise more details at next year's event.

"When we show it to you, you're gonna love it," he promised the clamoring crowd.

Studio technical director John Carmack later added that the project represents "the most tightly managed approach" that the company has ever used, as, thanks to continuing work on the id Tech 5 engine and Rage, some of the development tools and technology for Doom 4 already exist and will not need to be crafted in tandem with the game.

I first played Doom 3 when I was 15..and it was pretty awesome and scary. I recently started it up again and I gotta say it's nothing what it used to be..It's not even scary anymore and it's actually pretty boring and linear. I was disappointed..and the video settings bug is really stupid as hell and only having a max res of 1600x1200 is just too lame.

I've played all the Doom games and like them, especially Doom 3. I'm looking forward to Doom 4 more so than Rage at this point.

Hollenshead is one of the few people in the industry I trust when he says "you're gonna love it"
