Doom Series V2 - Knee Deep in the Thread - Games

Too bad we don't have a Blood thread, I'm playing it and it's so silly.

[QUOTE=thisispain;47848855]Too bad we don't have a Blood thread, I'm playing it and it's so silly.[/QUOTE] I think what is really silly is that the source code for it is effectively [B]GONE FOREVER[/B]

Same goes for Blood 2 and Shogo:MAD, they need source ports badly. It seems every good Monolith game disappears into nothing, sad considering they were one of the most creative FPS people around. The rights to No-One Lives Forever sits somewhere neglected in an abandoned desk they now only use to reach the breaker-box in the basement; at least we have the source code for that.

Hideous model rips aside, I think real guns advanced is really good and I find myself playing it multiplayer frequently with others

[QUOTE=Kegan;47849239]Hideous model rips aside, I think real guns advanced is really good and I find myself playing it multiplayer frequently with others[/QUOTE] I just wish it was based off of Black Ops 1/2, although failing that I suppose Modern Warfare 2 is a good choice. At least it doesnt use the weak-sounding guns from Ghosts. Ghosts is a terrible game.

Very unlikely to happen but I would love to see the new doom game have an option for old school weapon position and reload animations, so that the weapon is centered and the reload is only four frames of choppy animation.

When your aiming a weapon, you do tend to hold it to the center of your vision then again, I only played with nerf guns which have no weight or recoil

Actually holding guns in the center Doom-style would be implausible or very.. awkward. Especially with the kick of things like shotguns.

[QUOTE=Xubs;47849587]The real problem with the way FPS protagonists hold guns is that they just have arms which are able to hold shit still for way longer without getting tired than any normal person should, but that's totally justifiable since, you know, it's a video game.[/QUOTE] Not to mention everyone in modern shooters seems to have fish eye tunnelvision and hold their guns and hands really fucking close to their faces.

[QUOTE=Biohazard99;47849529]I actually dont know why right-sided weapons is the goto.[/QUOTE]Because it lets you see more of the cool gun graphics without obscuring your vision too much.

I wonder if Doomguy holding the pistol left-handed was a mistake or if he's meant to be ambidextrous. He does fire all other weapons with his right hand and only supports them with the left after all.

A lot of them are terrible and don't have enough "oomph." The later games got a little better about it, but CoD gun sounds have never sounded very good.

They'll kill it otherwise. Even though many aren't great at making 3D compared to sprites so is there still tons of other things people can mod.

Ok this is a pretty great mod. It adds weapons and enemies from Star Wars Dark Forces 1 The latest downloads are on page 4 [url]http://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=46173[/url]

Thermal Detonators need to push enemies back though like in DF, they don't feel nearly as fun without that. And somebody needs to make a star wars texture pack for doom right now.

I'd be tempted to make a full recording of Map01-32 in it, but even that bullrushed Map01 run took me about 20 tries. Most of the time, I got slaughtered in the first bend. :v: Taking even one bit of damage in HD can be a death sentence and the occasional respawn-capable monsters really make it hell. Also, hitscanners in open areas.

I'm thinking about making some sort of top down Doom remake in Gamemaker just for the hell of it. Has anybody ever made anything similar before? The idea just sort of struck me as I was taking a shower.

The idea just sort of struck me as I was taking a shower.[/QUOTE] I've goofed around and flirted with such ideas but never really done much. I think it shouldn't be *too* hard to create, depending on the level of complexity you'd want to do, even the inventory would be fairly simple because its a persistent one that is simply "If you have this weapon, you can select it"

With HD you need like lowest difficulty spawns just to get through some of the later maps.

[QUOTE=Ghost101;47855112]With HD you need like lowest difficulty spawns just to get through some of the later maps.[/QUOTE] I tried to do Map 01 and 02. 2:15 and 6:something respectively. But then a shotgun guy in the exit room of Map 02 killed me and I about ragequit right there. Maybe another day. HD is just so devilishly hard without abusing quicksaves. Going to upload the 10x speed reel of fuckups if it turns out ok. :v: And here it is: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oaJHhWiDk4[/media] HD - Not even once.

It's extremely surreal to play the PSX Doom total conversion with Doom 64 weapons, monsters and items. Like an unholy hybrid that somehow makes sense.

apparently supernatural got a small and quiet update some time ago and i gave it another play was fun and the boss encounter is still rather impressive despite how lag inducing it is

I've finished the map that I was working on. Went back and forth play-testing and adjusting the ammo count when necessary and I think I'll try and make another map to follow up this one. This map doesn't dive straight into the difficulty unless you count high numbers of enemies and slightly cramped corridors. If you're interested in playing then just PM me. Vertices: 1228 Sides: 2454 Lines: 1534 Sectors: 321 No errors in the map analysis mode either.

[QUOTE=Sonic Fan;47859789][t]http://i.imgur.com/tePYNjw.png[/t][t]http://i.imgur.com/qMdQCOR.png[/t][/QUOTE] I'm no map maker, but I sure play a lot of maps - so I'm not sure how much that validates my opinion when I say that the corridor is a bit off. Highlighting/detailing the rims of walls isn't always a bad thing, but here, it's very blocked out and sort of out-of-place looking. That texture clash really just doesn't seem needed. Other than that, it's quite nice looking.
