* BrokenBase: The Alpha and Beta of the multiplayer opened up a can of worms, with players complaining about the multiplayer feeling like ''VideoGame\Halo'' or ''VideoGame\Call of Duty''. Some players have pointed out that the multiplayer is just enjoyable, maybe underwhelming, but during the open beta test Steam was heavily bombed with negative reviews that led to the game's rating bottoming out at 36%. Reactions to the final game have been much more positive thanks to a high-quality single player campaign, but multiplayer and to a lesser extent [=SnapMap=] are still a source of this.

** In the multiplayer (beta) for ''Doom (2016)'', it's the Sniper Rifle. While it doesn't one-shot normally and actually does pitiful base damage, it can one shot a player, if they're less than 60 health (out of 100). Which, considering its a game with health pickups and no regenerating health, can often happen after a simple gunfight.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: A number of things were changed after the E3 2015 presentation to address the biggest complaints. The main ones being the yellow color filter and Glory Kill animations being too slow. The finished game has a much more diverse color pallet and the Glory Kills were sped up (and can be made even faster through upgrades).
** After the official box-art for the 2016 game was [[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/doom-2016-cover-art-parodies widely mocked and parodied online]] for being an incredibly generic "man with gun" pose, id ran a poll on Twitter to decide the reversible cover, with a tribute to the original games box-art winning by a landslide.

** The Revenant Demon Rune, to a degree. Most projectiles that the Revenant shoots, can one-shot most players, unless they are stocked on armor and health.
* HilariousInHindsight: Creator/BenCroshaw once wished that someone would make a classic-style FPS with modern technology. which this game is set to be exactly that.
* InternetBackdraft:
** The information about the game at Quakecon 2014 was intended to be convention exclusive, and id Software turned off their livestreams during the presentation. As you can imagine, the 50,000 people who were watching the streams were ''pissed''.
*** Even worse was the reception of the season pass, which had most of the forum pages on Steam filled with complaints about the season pass and its terrible timing.
* SpiritualLicensee: The [=SnapMap=] feature enabling players to not only create new levels from scratch but also new game modes, this could very well be the closest we'll ever get to ''VideoGame/TimeSplitters 4'', and to ''VideoGame/GarrysMod 2''.
