War has broken out between two sides and no one is close to victory. Countless lives have been lost. It is a time of brutality and despair. No one is certain how or why the war began. The Resistance claims that the massive, world-spanning, obscenely rich United Aerospace Corporation is to blame. They assert that UAC's obsessive research into paranormal activity, and their manipulation of the political class, is driving this conflict. Rumor has it that UAC has found a way into a parallel dimension and that it requires a massive amount of money and most importantly energy to keep the gate open, energy that the Resistance is fighting to deny them. Spies from both sides of the conflict have been fed false intel from UAC agents and lobbyists. Believing these lies, they started to fight each other and in the midst of all the chaos, UAC quietly continued work on their project. Their ambitions and goals are unclear; they guard their secrets well. The Resistance is trying their best to discover the truth, but they lack sufficient resources and manpower. The UAC is simply too powerful. But a way must be found. Uncovering the truth is the only path to world peace. The problem is that the UAC complex is so massive - the size of Manhattan - and no one knows exactly where the gateway is. It must be found. Rumors persist that hideous beings are coming through the portal and being enslaved by UAC scientists, or are the beings enslaving the scientists instead? If so, what is their agenda for our world? Being a part of the Resistance - and most importantly - your past as a decorated soldier once sent to many conflicts around the world, it falls upon you to gain access to the UAC and find the gateway. There is no doubt that it will be very difficult, perhaps impossible. You will have to work your way through massive and dangerous complexes crawling with what has been described as zombies and demonic beasts. You see, the odd thing is that the Resistance has up until now been very good at intercepting intel and communication from within the corporation, but our spies have been very silent lately. Something is going on in there and we cannot say for sure what it is. The conflict must end. Your mission is clear. No more fallen soldiers, no refugees and no poverty. The stakes are real and responsibility falls on you. Find the gateway and uncover the truth. It is the only way to convince the world that they have been played and this conflict can come to an end. If you fail, the future is too terrible to contemplate. ================================================================ Additional Credits to : ID Software for making DOOM.
