There isn't any artwork showing the UAC logo on any of the new original wall textures, though the new explode-able barrels, box of rockets, and the BFG ammo packs do have "U.A.C." listed on them. As such there isn't a whole lot of new details concerning the UAC in it, and seems to deal more with Marine Military bases before going to hell, other than Hell is back, and its Marine's job to prevent another incursion.
Using an updated version of the original engine but with new textures and sprites. The UAC in Doom 64ĭoom 64 is more or less a continuation of Doom II/ Final Doom materials.
Note: This classic UAC Logo also appears in Doom 3 and DOOM (2016) on various containers and wall outfittings/pipes/computers as well. There are two different color version for the UAC delivery symbol printed depending on if they are cardboard or metal boxes. The size of the arrow/triangle appears differently on different versions of the logo as well. Some say UAC BASE under the logo, rather than just UAC. There are some variants though such as UAC spelled out with stylized U sort of like a fat animal with horns, A is Triangle, and C with a crescent moon. The initials are often written beneath the shapes using the customary rounded font of the games. The UAC logo is composed of two flattened spherical shapes with a smaller triangular space between them. A clear sign that the UAC develops military technology is the "UAC rockets" label on the boxes of rockets the player may pick up as ammunition for the rocket launcher. In Doom II, which takes place on Earth, there are occasional UAC logos throughout the levels, indicating that the protagonist enters various areas owned by, operated by, or associated to the UAC on Earth.īoth games include crates of various sizes containing unknown materials which are marked with the UAC logo. Not much detail is given about the UAC's activities given the sketchy nature of the plot of the games, but it's made clear that before the invasion took place the UAC had been researching technology used for teleportation as a major contractor to an unknown military, which may explain why their facilities were guarded by Military personnel, and why a Marine team would be sent there in case of a major issue (such as the player character, a marine).Īs is evident during progress in the games, the populations of the UAC facilities are either killed or possessed by the hellish invaders unleashed by the teleportation experiments. The backstory for Doom II states the hero from the game is a survivor of a demonic invasion of the UAC Mars Base itself (which apparently occured parallel to events of Doom), having stopped the monsters from the Outside, before taking leave and landing on Earth in a drop ship (which is a seperate background to the marine from Doom I who reached earth through 'gateways/teleportation'). The story of the games begins after distress messages sent from the moons reach Mars, where the original protagonist was stationed. This project grew unstable, and project "volunteers" began to suffer from a violent form of progressive homicidal insanity culminating in a sudden, explosive death.
The facilities on the two moons were used to conduct various classified projects, including experimental inter-dimensional travel through teleporters (called "gateways"). Additional details indicate a base on Tei Tenga and other offworld sites as shown in the Phobos Hangerbay, and data being transmitted on various screens. Mars is the home of the Union Aerospace Corporation. The UAC is a multi-planetary conglomerate with radioactive waste facilities on Mars and its two moons, Phobos and Deimos.
