doom-eternal

[wintry bluff]

lol agreed

[azure oriole]

this reminds me
you can get a prowler stuck behind a wall of the next area and he wont teleport to you so youll be stuck in the previous arena

[tropic crane]

can you kill it with splash damage?

also reloading a checkpoint would fix that so its not our guy's issue

[wintry bluff]

I think the wall would stop the splash damage

but reloading the last checkpoint is definitley easier

[tropic crane]

@echo mountain read our replies to your message and give us an update on the situation once you can :DDDD

[wintry bluff]

I never really had any bugs on my playthroughs

Once in a while I accedentaly clip through the floor by glory killing

[azure oriole]

yep thats the only thing you can do

[azure oriole]

doesnt work
even tried the hammer but it doesnt kill heavies so

[echo mountain]

wow, destroying the buff totem worked...

how come in the previous demonic corruptions i never needed to destroy the totem to clear the level?

man the amount of time i spent replaying that mission thinking its a bug smh

[tropic crane]

hahaha happens to the best of us mate, next time you stumble upon a problem just brute force it, usually works out fine

[void remnant]

do u guys have tips for ultra nightmarr

[primal estuary]

Yeah, don't do it

[void remnant]

ok

[tropic crane]

you cant hit alt+f4 when you know ur about to die and once you restart the game you get to replay the mission without losing the whole run 👍

[slow sigil]

Then you're not really doing UN though

[tropic crane]

well some people just want the achievement

[slow sigil]

Then go and actuall achieve it?

What's the point of an achievment if you didn't actually achieve it???

[tropic crane]

uhhhhhh dude its a game if someone just wants a cool skin or something why wouldnt they cheese it

[slow sigil]

Thing is, the skin isn't cool

It's solid gold completely void of any texture

Looks like ass in all levels but UACA

In which it is just meh

[tropic crane]

personal preference i guess, it gives some satisfaction for new players for sure

[slow sigil]

Satisfaction that they didn't actually achieve it yeah

[tropic crane]

brooooo what point are you trying to prove you seem to be on a warpath all the time

[slow sigil]

No i just can't stand dumb comments

And those get made the most often

"How do i do UN?"
"Just don't lmfao and cheat on it"

[tropic crane]

how is wanting to get a cosmetic item in a game dumb?

[slow sigil]

That didn't ask that even though

And in that case, just get a skinunlocker and get ALL the skins, not just 1

[tropic crane]

my brother in christ i just gave a tip that i personally used in my 1st UN run which i completed just to get the achievement

[slow sigil]

"Un run"
You did nightmare

[tropic crane]

i am not saying that you HAVE to do it its just a neat trick that can save you from the pain of redoing the whole thing again

[slow sigil]

It's an exploit not a mere "trick"

[slow sigil]

The "pain of redoing it" IS un
Don't like it? Then just don't play it

[tropic crane]

nah im not going to argue with you, its pointless you just want to argue for the sake of it 😅

[slow sigil]

Just like all those people in y1 that wanted doom eternal to just be doom 2016 but with a new lick of paint
Don't like it? Simply don't play it

[void remnant]

I just want tips

[slow sigil]

It's NM, but with more stress cause it's permadeath
Any tips for NM just apply, except probably play even more boring more safely by relying extremely much on the shield and trying to have even more armor then usually

[void remnant]

ok

[tropic crane]

its usefull to learn the spawn locations, id complete like an extra life run before to remind yourself how everything works etc also maybe practice a more difficult level like icon of sin/urdak in a nightmare save slot before 👍 good luck on your run mate

[void remnant]

alright thank you

[slow sigil]

Ehh for UN the more dangerous levels are earlier on, urdak is quite peacefull all in all

[ember void]

me when the "ok" response

[tropic crane]

some people say cultist base is hard too idk

[ember void]

its the hardest level xd...

[void remnant]

alright

[ember void]

you're weak and mancubi hurt, it needs the most practicing i thinkk

[void remnant]

ok

[tropic crane]

maybe but pb+rocket combo rips

[void remnant]

it does

[ember void]

yeah buuuut before rhat!!

[strange gale]

you're not really that weak

[ember void]

also macub pit ouch

that could rlly hurt if you mess up buuut you have cueballs fortunatelyy..

[void remnant]

alright

[daring osprey]

so throughout the DOOM games is the slayer/doomguy aware of his purpose in everything? like aware of the sacrifices he has to make? or is he purley guided by rage

[tired pilot]

No. he does not give a shit

[azure forum]

Nothing better than using the gold skin but sucking at the game

[random vault]

“why do i have to give effort to get the thing that requires effort”

[azure oriole]

Nah taking away the permadeath by cheesing takes the entire purpose away from UN

[flint flame]

Boooo

[burnt moss]

Some people just want to check the block

[jaunty vapor]

Guys I got the gold skin by beating UN all I had to do was use noclip and God in the console

[azure oriole]

Holy shit. Bloodshot!!

[jaunty dew]

Base game, no fucks given. In base game it's basically "Big guy shoots demons across dimensions" instead of "Big guy shoots demons in Mars"

DLC maybe he knows shit. ||There the plot gets nonsensically whack because both your former Machine mission control guys (VEGA/Samuel) are now Gods and the Dark Lord is literally yourself in a Gundam||

[azure oriole]

its good that master level fucks up your progress if you try to alt f4

[jaunty dew]

Wym

Wait because it doesn't have a separate option to load?

And all your retries (if below UN) must be done while the game is running?

[azure oriole]

yes you need to complete the level in one sitting
no saving checkpoints

[jaunty dew]

TIL that Flame Belch has a deceptively long range

As opposed to how far the fire that is shot actually travels

[jaunty dew]

It's the difficulty that tells you how much you suck at the game. If you don't suck at UN then congo, you're past being intermediate

[fleet loom]

[random vault]

wow thats so impressive your so good omg

[burnt moss]

me who bought the Goldskin on the darkweb

[burnt moss]

They were always targets wym

I wasn’t taking them out to lunch or nothin

Yeah but what did you mean makes everyone a target

Yeah it’s cuz qs gets me in a rhythm

[jaunty dew]

Taras Nabad fucking loves infinite spawning Prowlers for some reason

[burnt moss]

My aim isn’t great anymore so it’s mixed feelings

[burnt moss]

Means a demon is hiding from you

Which arena

[jaunty dew]

Double Tyrant + Marauder into Double Marauder

[burnt moss]

ML?

[jaunty dew]

Yes

[burnt moss]

Any invisible demons in that fight?

Or maybe a pain elemental outside the red wall?

[jaunty dew]

Nope, just two Marauders

[jaunty dew]

I mean I can't really do shit about pain elementals outside the boundary

[burnt moss]

Wait so did you beat them all and the prowlers are still spawning?

[burnt moss]

If you can see them you can shoot them I think

[jaunty dew]

No no, they keep spawning while the Marauders are alive

Wait are you thinking I'm having an actual spawning bug or smth because if you are then no it's not the case

[burnt moss]

Oh yeah. Of course they do. Because fuck you for playing Master Levels, now you will regret your existence hahaha

iirc TN ML NM remains undefeated by me

[north oxide]

upgrade points

[elder skiff]

finally finished doom eternal and man im blown away

now i gotta try the dlc when i get the chance

[compact ledge]

The dlc are bonkers definitely check them out when you can

[elder skiff]

alr

gonna go through all the levels with infinite ammo cheat and get everything i missed dw i got all slayer gates already

[slow cosmos]

Any tips on bunnyhopping consistently? I know how to do a bunnyhop, just cant get it multiple times very consistently

[elder skiff]

dont know hw to bunnyhop at all honestly

[compact ledge]

Timing is really the main thing

[slow cosmos]

You just build up momentum, go forward, jump, then jump again at the split second timing you hit the ground

[naive ferry]

I just got doom eternal today and I'm playing on ultra-violence difficulty and I got to the snow area and can't get past the double mancubus encounter near the beggining of the area, Anyone got tips??

[compact ledge]

Lower the difficulty to hurt me plenty if you really want to get past them

[slow cosmos]

Are you using your shoulder thingies?

Like flame belch or ice bomb? (Ice bomb got me through that lol)

[naive ferry]

I'm using ice bomb, and also I don't wanna lower difficulty

[compact ledge]

Weak points

[naive ferry]

I don't have rocket launcher yet

[slow cosmos]

Although I don't think they get the rocket launcher at the beginning of the cultist base (I think thats the level)

For me, I used ice bomb when they were both together, plopped down a grenade, then used full auto on one of them

[compact ledge]

Utilise taking out their weak points if you haven’t been before

[slow cosmos]

Yea that too

[naive ferry]

By the time I hit the weak points on one or do any damage they just kill me because massive damage

[slow cosmos]

Maybe try going up high, bc the fodders are gonna do some damage too

Use the platforms hung by the chains

[naive ferry]

Hmm, mabey but it's a small area with not much wiggle room

[slow cosmos]

Yea farm glory kills off of them

[naive ferry]

Yeah that does work a little but there's only a few

I'll try these out. Thanks for advice/tips

[slow cosmos]

Ight

Meanwhile I'm still tryna get bhopping down 🗿

Yes

If only I could do it consistently I'd be zooming

[naive ferry]

Also the first slayer gate was Hella hard, so many revenants and TWO dread knights goddamn

[slow cosmos]

Well, of course its gonna be hard, you are very limited at that time

[slow sigil]

Would be a bit pointless if they where cakewalks

[naive ferry]

My solution was run plasma beam blood punch grenade and glory kills and chainsaw

[slow cosmos]

Same

[naive ferry]

It's really good for getting fodder to flash to charge blood punch

[slow cosmos]

Whats a good place to practice bhops? And also yea heavy cannon is a pretty easy alternative

[compact ledge]

Sentinel prime

[naive ferry]

I didn't know what to use for dread knights or revenants so I just blast with pb

[slow cosmos]

Any specific areas for any of those levels? Or the map itself lol

[compact ledge]

gladiator arena at sentinel prime

[naive ferry]

I'm so glad I purchased doom eternal its so worth

[compact ledge]

You can practice quick swaps on the gladiator too while also practicing b hops

[naive ferry]

Hardest doom game I have played tho is definitely doom 64

[slow cosmos]

Oh hey speaking of the gladiator arena, how tf do I beat that thing of a boss consistently? I keep having to get hit so many times and the glory kills are my life support 🗿

[naive ferry]

Ehhh it will be fine once I get rocket launcher

[compact ledge]

You can easily exploit him by meathooking over him and hitting him behind his shield while airborne above him

[slow cosmos]

Huh, alright thanks

Gonna try that

[naive ferry]

Also is there any reason for doom levels and stuff besides cosmetics?

[compact ledge]

No

[naive ferry]

Hm?

Lmao I mean your not wrong

[compact ledge]

Yeah other then that there is really no reason to grind doom level other then personal goals

[naive ferry]

Sounds about right

Do you unlock master levels through campaign?

Good to know

[slow sigil]

No reason to grind it personally either since it's 12500 tiers in total

[naive ferry]

WHAT 12500 TEIRS?!?!?

DAMN ID THATS A LITTLE EXCESSIVE

[compact ledge]

There are alot of people that have too much free time on their hands

[slow sigil]

People whined there werent enough levels at launch so ID made it practically infinite

[slow sigil]

Even then, it would take such a long timr you just have to get tired of eternal

[naive ferry]

I mean, that's fair, it makes logical sense

[slow sigil]

I'm not sure the day1 speedrunners even get there

[compact ledge]

Eternal is that one game that you really can’t get tired of even if you tried

[slow sigil]

Yes you can

[naive ferry]

I feel like eternal is ment for some to remove rage but I feel like it does the opposite and induces it quite a bit

[compact ledge]

Nuh uh

[naive ferry]

For who

[slow sigil]

Getting 12500 hours requires a monstrous time investment big enough that it will get old

[naive ferry]

Oh, I'm just chillin right now I might pick it back up tommorow

[slow sigil]

Assuming you're not just farming 1 level the quickest, you will still end up repeating so much

This isn't a thing you reach in 1000 hours

It'd take 10k+ hours at the least

[naive ferry]

Is the online for eternal good? Iv heard mixed opinions

[compact ledge]

Yeah didn’t really comprehend it as such until you put it into perspective

[slow cosmos]

Ok so I got done with gladiator then I see this, what the hell are y'all talking about lol

[slow sigil]

I meant levels not hours

[compact ledge]

It might be for you but on the other hand it might not be try giving it a shot and see how it goes

[slow cosmos]

In what?

[slow sigil]

What?

[slow cosmos]

Doom levels?

[naive ferry]

How does it work if you don't mind me asking I don't really understand it

[slow sigil]

Yeah?

[slow cosmos]

Oh

[compact ledge]

The multiplayer?

[naive ferry]

Ye

Oh I'm sorry I didn't know that, mb

[slow cosmos]

Also why is it that I can't use the ripatorium anymore?

[azure oriole]

i recently played a few matches
it was fun but started to become boring

[slow cosmos]

Yes

[compact ledge]

There are 2 demons and 1 slayer each playable demon has their own set of abilities and can pick an amp after each round same for the slayer

[jaunty sun]

Hey everyone playing the game on PS5 for the 1st time , haven’t played in over like 2 years & im finally gonna play TAG 1 & 2 any tips or heads ups or whatever

[slow cosmos]

New enemies

[compact ledge]

don’t stop moving

[azure oriole]

best dlcs

[jaunty sun]

Dash always dash right

[slow cosmos]

Very annoying new enemies too

[compact ledge]

I hate the turrets

[slow cosmos]

Same

[lusty pendant]

idk get a condom cuz tag1 is gonna fck you

[naive ferry]

Welp ima head out and get some rest thanks and cya

[azure oriole]

nah the most annoying enemy is still carcass

[compact ledge]

Bye bye

[jaunty sun]

I can respect it

[azure oriole]

real

[slow cosmos]

Tbh, I never played the dlc, I just found the enemies when I played and eventually beat horde mode

[jaunty sun]

Also did anyone else feel the icon of sin was kinda meh in his fight

[compact ledge]

Would you ever want to check them out?

[slow cosmos]

If I ever get the chance, yea

[lusty pendant]

bossfights aren't dooms strength

[compact ledge]

the first one dlc is really good

[jaunty sun]

Like the damage cycle looked great but I don’t remember super loving him

[slow cosmos]

Is it? I haven't really been spoiled about it

[jaunty sun]

I hope the dlc fights are good

[azure oriole]

First dlc is better yea

[azure oriole]

First dlc boss fight gonna kick you a lot

[slow cosmos]

Is the second dlc worse than the first or smth???

[compact ledge]

Try keeping it like that if you can

[azure oriole]

Both are good, first one is more enjoyable

[slow cosmos]

Oh

[compact ledge]

Not necessarily

[slow cosmos]

Shoot its sled a LOT

[azure oriole]

Blood punch x 2

[jaunty sun]

Like I knew some of the dlc plot but I forgot it so there is that

[slow cosmos]

I'm fine lol

[compact ledge]

Energy shield bashes to the sled + blood punches then finish it with a lock on and some ssg shots

[slow cosmos]

Wait what? Energy shield bashes?

[jaunty sun]

Thoughts on the Unmaker vs the BFG

[compact ledge]

Dashing with the energy shield on enemies deals huge damage and can two/three shot pinkies without wasting ammo

Really op for barons

[slow cosmos]

Personally I like the Unmaykr more because its more suited for actual combat/combos

[lusty pendant]

like the boss or normal enemy version?

I usually go remote det falter, bloodpunch, ssg and then lock on rockets

[slow cosmos]

WHAT

[compact ledge]

Unmaykr>bfg

[jaunty sun]

You can’t shoot a hole into the surface of mars

[slow cosmos]

Fr

[slow cosmos]

"Activating the portal now"

[compact ledge]

Yeah more ammo efficient and deals more damage

[lusty pendant]

I never use superweapons lol

[compact ledge]

Although more useful to singular larger enemies

[jaunty sun]

Ah a being of pure chaos I like it

[slow cosmos]

Plus its more enjoyable, other than the bfg being just a petty room clear lol

[lusty pendant]

for the boss I throw a nade and use that window and go dullauto on the sled, in the time between I shoot rockets

[jaunty sun]

They could laugh at you that’s pretty cool actually

[lusty pendant]

If you're good enough you don't need/want to nuke a room, but maybe blow up a single enemy

[compact ledge]

Yeah that’s why I just stray from using any of them really but the unmaykr is really helpful for spirit possessed enemies

[slow sigil]

Only more usefull against singular targets

[slow cosmos]

Build up air in your lungs, then exert that air out of you partially, multiple times, while having a smile on your face

[slow sigil]

And you shouldnt be struggling against just 1 non boss enemy

[slow cosmos]

Oh yea those things

[slow sigil]

Usually it's the entire arena in which case bfg is vastly superior

[slow cosmos]

Too bad I don't get the Unmaykr in horde mode 🗿

[compact ledge]

They are both situational and dependent on play style really

[slow cosmos]

Idk I never played 2016, my friend just recommended me DE so I didn't really play the other games

[slow sigil]

Play style doesn't magically change stats

[lusty pendant]

I don't have problems with a single enemy I just wanna get rid of them sooner and don't want to repeat all the sick combos I just did

[slow cosmos]

Wait they do laugh?

[compact ledge]

Ummm ok?

[slow sigil]

Then BFG so you falter the problematic demon + destroy the entire arena so that 1 demon isn't an problem anymore

[slow cosmos]

I don't really pay much attention to the sounds they make other than their goofy screech and funny look lol

[compact ledge]

Factual

[slow cosmos]

What if its horde mode 😎

kk

[lusty pendant]

but I don't want tonuke the room, I want to dance the doom dance with them

[compact ledge]

Horde mode could’ve been so good if they kept updating it

[slow cosmos]

Then just learn to use your arsenal more

[slow sigil]

Well if you refuse to use it then ok, but bfg is still just better for the situation

[slow cosmos]

Yes

[lusty pendant]

only use for bfg is ballista a maurader then switch and obliterate him opint blank

[slow sigil]

You can not use something and still acknowledge it's better....

[compact ledge]

Well fun fact but one lock on burst puts the dread knight in glory kill state

So the more you know ig

[lusty pendant]

ik, I have memorizes a dozen combos on demons to put them into glory kill state

[slow sigil]

Dont have to always put them in stagger state

[jaunty sun]

I’m just lurking here to get new facts

Tacts*

[compact ledge]

True but in situations if you need health it’s always good to know how to get some without killing the enemy

[lusty pendant]

ofc but when I need them in a pinch it's good to know

[compact ledge]

And invulnerability frames are busted

So knowing things like that is revolutionary for gameplay

[slow sigil]

Not that much

[compact ledge]

How so?

[slow sigil]

Your stuff gets 2 seconds off cooldown whilst you're stuck in animation is the only benefit
That is by no means "busted"

[slow cosmos]

Wish I could upload images, because then I'd be able to send a picture of a very funny skin mod of a blue lobster replacing the ssg, which I downloaded from nexus, but thats for eternal modding so idc lol

[slow sigil]

It's not likr the chaingun shield where you can still move and do damage

[compact ledge]

Well being immune to damage for 2 second can also be used as a breather for gameplay repositioning your mouse, wiping your eyes it’s all very useful and if abused correctly, it can really help you in combat

[jaunty sun]

Is that an Optimus Prime pfp

[compact ledge]

Yes it is :))

[slow sigil]

You can lift your mouse and reposition it withing half a second whilst in the air
Or just.... press pause if you NEED a breather

[jaunty sun]

Total respect

[compact ledge]

Thanks man

[slow cosmos]

What are y'all talking about with this "2 second immunity" stuff lol

[compact ledge]

But that breaks up the flow of combat

[slow sigil]

It's the same pause

[compact ledge]

When In an animation like a glory kill you are immune to damage for the duration of it

[slow cosmos]

Oh

[compact ledge]

Not really

[slow cosmos]

I don't need that immunity, I got the speedy glory kill rune 😎

[jaunty sun]

Anytime , What I’ve done starts blaring

[slow cosmos]

Oh my god thank you for the song name

[slow sigil]

Feels more fluid that way, is a tad weaker but eh

[slow cosmos]

Fluidity is what I roll with tbh, think of ULTRAKILL, if you even know what that is lol

[azure oriole]

fast glory kill matches the fast combat

[slow cosmos]

Exactly

[jaunty sun]

Yep

[compact ledge]

Directed by micheal bay 😎

[slow sigil]

It's the most popular indie shooter who doesnt know it

[slow cosmos]

Meh, true

But you get the point I'm tryna make with that right?

[azure oriole]

Like how ultrakill mimics doom eternal and dusk mimics quake

[jaunty sun]

Went to go watch Rise of the Beasts funniest Cinema Experience I’ve had in a while

[compact ledge]

Did you enjoy it?

[slow sigil]

I wouldnt really say UK "mimics" eternal

[slow cosmos]

And it also mimics DMC

[azure oriole]

It does
dash, the weapons, fast gameplay

[jaunty sun]

Yeh it was fun , a lil stupid but I liked it

[slow cosmos]

Rather "references" it in some way

[azure oriole]

devil may cry? haven't played that

[lusty pendant]

ultrkill came out before eternal

[azure oriole]

what no way really

[slow sigil]

That isn't mimicing that's taking inspiration at best

[slow cosmos]

Awesome game, would recommend you play it

[compact ledge]

I haven’t seen the film yet but hopefully soon I’ll be able to go watch it

[azure oriole]

same thing

[slow cosmos]

Yes, it did, it came out early access in what, 2018?

[jaunty sun]

I’m just gonna pretend I know what Ultrakill is

[azure oriole]

but ultrakill is way harder than doom eternal

[slow sigil]

It has a dash (quite common in faster games) weapons! (.....it's an fps) and is fast paced! (Yeah....)

[azure oriole]

name another game with dash

[jaunty sun]

The atmosphere in my cinema was hilarious

[slow cosmos]

DMC5

[slow sigil]

Hollow knight

[slow cosmos]

Trickster dash from Dante

[azure oriole]

bruh that's metroidvania

[compact ledge]

I hope i have a same experience

[slow sigil]

And?

[azure oriole]

not fps lol.

[lusty pendant]

a indie retro fps with ps1 style graphic with crazy fast movement and a style meter as well as funky easter eggs

[slow sigil]

Didn't specify that

[azure oriole]

ok

[compact ledge]

Eternal copied parkour from super Mario therefor it is a bad game

[slow cosmos]

A game does not need to be fps to have a dash, nor does it have to be metrovania, dashes are like, widely used in a variety of games

[jaunty sun]

I love DMC ( the franchise ) though I do love the visual style & design of the reboot , in my Top 3 franchises sandwiched between God of War & Doom

[azure oriole]

yes but the only fps game that has dash that i can think of is ultrakill
aside from eternal

[lusty pendant]

no not the firepoles discourse again

[slow sigil]

Can we count deathloop

[jaunty sun]

That sounds super cool

[slow sigil]

It has all the FPS mechanics and a dash

[lusty pendant]

shadow warrior 3?

[slow cosmos]

The reboot's visuals look cool, but the way the game itself is displayed is really bad, and kinda drifts it off from every other dmc game lol

[compact ledge]

Fortnite probably idk

[slow cosmos]

Thats why most people dont count it in the headcanon for dmc

[slow sigil]

I mean if a game in the same genre has a dash still kinda harsh to say they "mimic" the other game

[azure oriole]

bro what

[compact ledge]

What

[azure oriole]

fortnite has dash?

[compact ledge]

I think it does

[jaunty sun]

Bunch a kids sitting behind me & my friend screaming Bumblebee the whole time he was on screen & my other friend fell asleep

[azure oriole]

E.

[slow cosmos]

Grrrr, its not a laugh!!!

[compact ledge]

Kids are strange critters

[slow cosmos]

Depression 😠

[slow cosmos]

We've all been one

[compact ledge]

Hope 😃

[jaunty sun]

Yeh but I still enjoy some elements of it and for what it is the combat is pretty fun , I’m working on platinuming the DMC & Doom games

[compact ledge]

Nuh uh

[slow cosmos]

"You took...EVERYTHING from me!"

[lusty pendant]

was optimus prime ever a kid?

[compact ledge]

Nuh uh

[slow cosmos]

By what I think, yes, but what I think is probably wrong, bc I never watched or read a THING about transformers lol

[compact ledge]

You are wrong 😎

[slow cosmos]

Grrrrrrrr

[jaunty sun]

Yep , I was looking at friend & we were dying of laughter cuz they were just screaming Bumblebee in excitement for the last 20 minutes & the second they stop Optimus Prime said LET THEM COME

[compact ledge]

Hehehe🦗

[jaunty sun]

Ripped of COD

[compact ledge]

Plasma rifle

[slow cosmos]

Quick question, did optimus get built by like, anything? Or did he just, appear or smth lol

[compact ledge]

He got built

[jaunty sun]

No Anakin you have done that to yourself

I know that isn’t the quote but shush

[slow cosmos]

Oh, well then I might be on to something lol

[slow cosmos]

GRRRR YOU DIDN'T SAY IT!!!

[jaunty sun]

Hello There

[slow cosmos]

What

[compact ledge]

I love Star Trek(I’m sorry)

[slow cosmos]

I'm going to kill you

[jaunty sun]

It’s okay I’m trying to be on both sides

[compact ledge]

One of violence one of piece

[jaunty sun]

Like I am with comic books , I live Marvel & DC

[slow cosmos]

Google vs bing

[jaunty sun]

Speaking of Across the Spider-Verse was beautiful

[compact ledge]

Forgive me ♿️

[jaunty sun]

*Internet Explorer enters the chat *

[slow cosmos]

Did you know that Goku was actually featured in across the spiderverse? Its like, unseeable, but he's there

[jaunty sun]

Oh yeh I did see that

[slow cosmos]

I literally died when I saw him bro lol

[compact ledge]

Everywhere I go I see his face

[slow cosmos]

Prowler plays

[jaunty sun]

Where was he went the Multiversal madness was happening

[slow cosmos]

Idk man lol

[jaunty sun]

Lazy bastard Goku

[compact ledge]

Optimus prime is my favourite war criminal

[slow cosmos]

Kirby is my favorite war criminal and terrorist

[jaunty sun]

You got any Star Trek things to ease a newbie into the franchise , side note I need to watch the Clone Wars for the 1st time

[jaunty sun]

I agree

[random vault]

doom eternal

[jaunty sun]

I also agree

[compact ledge]

I have never seen Star Trek but I would recommend watching from the start to the end

[jaunty sun]

Clifford the Big Red Dog is mine

[lusty pendant]

not a war criminal but an absolute mad lad
Sir adrian Carton de Wiart

[random vault]

5 second cooldown is less then ten

[random vault]

what?

[compact ledge]

You spelt war criminal wrong

[slow cosmos]

Erm do not care 🤓

Tbh I'm fine with it

[jaunty sun]

Do u guys like Doctor Who I only just started the Hartnell era so I have so much to look forward too

[slow cosmos]

But holon Ima do smth rq

[jaunty sun]

Like 12 Doctors and counting

[random vault]

whatever, but do note this is doom chat not uh… war… criminal chat?

[slow cosmos]

You guys should check #eternal-modding

[compact ledge]

Doom guy is war criminal now

[slow cosmos]

Doomguy is technically a war criminal

[compact ledge]

By hell laws

[jaunty sun]

He wasn’t already?

[slow cosmos]

Yes

[compact ledge]

Yeah fair point

[random vault]

its not a crime if nobody’s alive to enforce it

[compact ledge]

Even in human laws he assaulted his commanding officer which is how this whole mess started

[slow cosmos]

But...but what about the Maykr's?

[jaunty sun]

I guess he unalived all those that thought they could stop him

[compact ledge]

Chain gun

[jaunty sun]

Don’t forget his Rabbit

[random vault]

dead

[random vault]

assault is not a war crime

[slow cosmos]

I mean, they were alive when trying to enforce it, but died trying lol

[compact ledge]

Nuh uh

[compact ledge]

Show me the law

[jaunty sun]

A commanding Officer thou

[slow cosmos]

Besides, I'm foreshadowing some are still alive during dlc1 and dlc2

[jaunty sun]

Feels like a war crime when it’s someone of that status

[random vault]

you can.. read the Geneva conventions if you… want ig?

[slow cosmos]

If you at least consider the sociality and lawful status of that, it could probably make sense

[woven cedar]

Hm.... super shotgun fires

[compact ledge]

I ain’t readin allat

[slow cosmos]

Fake, its just a suggestion

[jaunty sun]

Oh btw what do you guys play on ?

[woven cedar]

Xbox

[slow cosmos]

PC

[random vault]

unless the assault was with chlorine gas or a serrated weapon it’s not war crime eligible

[jaunty sun]

A guideline if you will

[compact ledge]

Ps5 station

[slow cosmos]

What does serrated mean?

[jaunty sun]

Same

[woven cedar]

Do any of my weapons count as serrated?

[slow cosmos]

Did your phone explode yet

[random vault]

google it

[woven cedar]

i play on potatoes

[slow cosmos]

Chainsaw

[random vault]

i dont know, i dont think so

[jaunty sun]

Shoots a hole into mars ( it’s a casual Friday )

[slow cosmos]

A chainsaw can be considered a serrated weapon

[jaunty sun]

Bing it

[compact ledge]

Crucible

[woven cedar]

yeah everything but my chainsaw doesnt count

[slow cosmos]

Its gonna tell you to use it for other purposes

[random vault]

yes thats one

[slow cosmos]

Well, its not "saw" like

[jaunty sun]

A being of true morale

[compact ledge]

Oh mb

[slow cosmos]

Plus Doomguy uses it a LOT of the time during the journey for ammo pickups, so its safe to say that he's war crime eligible from my knowledge lol

[woven cedar]

I hate super gore nest

[slow cosmos]

Super gore nest imo

[random vault]

but, do demons count

[jaunty sun]

Thoughts of Doom 3 ( I wanna do a Doom series play through I haven’t beaten the others except 2016 & Eternal )

[slow cosmos]

Maykrs count

[random vault]

how so

[compact ledge]

Underrated deserves more love and respect

[slow cosmos]

They're not considered demon, nor lack a soul from my knowledge, they're its own conscious being

Yes they do

[compact ledge]

Love it for what it is not what it isn’t

[random vault]

war crimes are meant to be between human’s fighting humans, how does that apply to aliens, we have no guidelines for demon or alien warfare

[jaunty sun]

Always also the title theme is beautiful

[woven cedar]

U mean the priests?

Loads shotgun

[jaunty sun]

I brought all of the games just gotta get around to you know playing them all

[woven cedar]

There can not be any witnesses.

[compact ledge]

Yes truly majestic for what it is

[jaunty sun]

Anyone ever actually played Quake ( I haven’t )

[woven cedar]

Why

[compact ledge]

Doom 2 sucks prove me wrong

[jaunty sun]

Why did that seem so menacing

[woven cedar]

Oh yeah, its because i have to speak (o no lord)

[random vault]

gotta love the 20th weekly “im the doom slayer” roleplayer

[slow cosmos]

It could be considered when humanity and otherworldly species do ally with eachother with their own socieites (clearly the maykr's intentions when the maykrs were trying to bring "salvation" to earth"), and besides, you probably could've brought that up earlier lol

[woven cedar]

Not exactly, though

[compact ledge]

Aren’t some demons humans

[slow cosmos]

Mb for the paragraph btw

[slow cosmos]

Maybe? Idk

[random vault]

no no thats what your doing

[compact ledge]

Well most of them are

[jaunty sun]

Olivia Pierce & the UAC crew from 2016

[compact ledge]

She wasn’t a demon tho

[slow cosmos]

Could you name some? Genuine question, idk

[woven cedar]

they WERE humans, such as the zombie soldier and the zombies (did u know that the zombie soldiers are from the original doom and so are arachnotrons?)

[slow cosmos]

Yes

[jaunty sun]

She turned into a fucking spider brainster dude

[compact ledge]

Zombies the mechanic zombies pretty sure the revenants maybe idk but that’s really it

[woven cedar]

ah shit

[jaunty sun]

Don’t get a lot more turning into a demon then that

[slow cosmos]

Well they WERE human, thats the thing

[compact ledge]

I interpreted as her being sacrificed to summon the mastermind from doom 1

[woven cedar]

Ah yes, the mastermind

[slow cosmos]

😎

[slow cosmos]

Also, those are demons, not maykr kind

[woven cedar]

Please, it's DOOM 98

[jaunty sun]

I don’t remember the spider mastermind being in Doom 1

Wasn’t it 64 ?

[compact ledge]

Well the spider demon was in the first game

[jaunty sun]

Ah

[compact ledge]

I saw Olivia being a sacrifice to resurrect an old evil from doom guys past

[woven cedar]

64 does NOT denote year.

[jaunty sun]

I gtg guys it’s been fun

[compact ledge]

Doom 1 or eternal

[jaunty sun]

Personally so far Eternal

[compact ledge]

Bye bye

[woven cedar]

BE LOST, DEMON

[jaunty sun]

Best DMC game ?

[slow cosmos]

3

[woven cedar]

idk eternal?

[jaunty sun]

A man of truth

[slow cosmos]

That game was PEAK

[jaunty sun]

Worst Doom Demon

Archvile FUCK THAT GUY

[slow cosmos]

Archvile

[compact ledge]

Take that back

Depends which archvile tho

[jaunty sun]

No he’s a monster

Eternals

[compact ledge]

Fair enough

[slow cosmos]

Buff totems you just need to find and break

Archviles on the other hand, are buff totems but are not one-shotable, can move and attack, and are beefy

You cannot tell me thats NOT annoying as hell lol

Plus, you need to find them too!!!

And for me, they hide in the most ridiculous spots

Yes

Plus they're easy to counter (unless they're possessed by the blue soul guys, in which they run at mach 4)

[compact ledge]

Pinkies got the short end of the stick

[woven cedar]

hell knights suck, who's with me

[slow cosmos]

Meh, they're fine with me, but at some times they're annoying lol

[woven cedar]

u mean lost souls

[slow cosmos]

Yea those things

[compact ledge]

Lost souls are stinky

[slow cosmos]

Yes

Especially in horde mode when you dont have the fucking plasma rifle early game 💀💀💀

[strange gale]

lost souls are the flying skulls though

[slow cosmos]

Oh

Well whats the name of the blue soul guy that possesses a demon

[random vault]

haha epik fail

[strange gale]

[slow cosmos]

Oh

I am never going to remember the names of the demons, ever

Ayeee a being of culture!

Now for hearing "Against all the evil hell can conjure" for the 903546th time

[slow cosmos]

Is your name a pfp a parody of that one YT show where there's just talking llamas lol

The one where the one with a hat goes "caaaaarl"

[stuck saffron]

No but I do love llamas with hats - it was an emoji from "yahoo messenger", which I adopted

[slow cosmos]

Oh god now that I clicked on your profile and looked at it up close it looks weird

[slow cosmos]

And yea, llamas with hats was awesome lol

[stuck saffron]

defs!

[slow cosmos]

Even though I don't remember much, my favorite line was "Caaaaarl, that kills people!"

Like in the first episode lol

[ember void]

no

[stuck saffron]

buffed double mauraders sucks

[ember void]

[slow cosmos]

Grrrrr, I hate it when they say "aLl ThE wIcKeDnEsS tHaT mAnKiNd CaN pRoDuCe"

I was making a Max0r reference

[slow cosmos]

Yes, I know

[jaunty dew]

Yes because the Arena was open and the only things that spawned were fodder

mini dark lord

[lusty pendant]

what skin is that?
Is it from battlemode?

[azure oriole]

its a mod lol

[lusty pendant]

ah, makes sense then that I didn't recognise it

[azure oriole]

im bored of this game so imma mod the shit outta it

[lusty pendant]

fair

[azure oriole]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1083430967311605833/1123928679798546493/image.png?width=628&height=463

why does this pop up every time i launch the game
I mean the game works but i wanna get rid of this error

[strange gale]

it's because of reshade, like it says right there

[azure oriole]

oh

[tacit orchid]

Your GPU?

[slow cosmos]

Give

[azure oriole]

not gpu its reshade

[tacit orchid]

But what is your GPU model

[azure oriole]

https://www.nexusmods.com/doometernal/mods/1331

[azure oriole]

1650

[slow cosmos]

Oh wait I don't have Viridian Empyrean ;-;

How do you even get the skin lol

[tacit orchid]

Latest driver?

[slow cosmos]

Yay you just shot a hole into the surface of mars

[azure oriole]

latest yep

[azure oriole]

latest*

[azure oriole]

milestones i think

[slow cosmos]

Uh

Remember which one? Or no?

[azure oriole]

the game works fine but tjis reshade gives the error everytime

[azure oriole]

might need to check there are a lot of skins

[slow cosmos]

Gah, lemme check

[azure oriole]

it should be easy

[tacit orchid]

As long as the game works fine, just outclick the option

It's just some specific technology that the game doesn't support alongside your GPU

[azure oriole]

yep i do but would like it to not be there

[azure oriole]

probably

[tacit orchid]

Sometimes it's uneffectable + ReShade is something you would have to have some tech knowledge for

[azure oriole]

i checked the local files and there is no reshade.ini file which is strange

[tacit orchid]

Well there isn't if it says "unsupported" ofc, you have latest .NET Framework?

[azure oriole]

yep

or wait let me check

[tacit orchid]

4.8

[azure oriole]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1083430967311605833/1123931909790122074/image.png?width=615&height=93

it's the latest

[tacit orchid]

Then the game sometimes can act weird on compatibility with these techs, I do remember also having something a patch did, than next released and it fixed, but unfortunate that here it's not most likely happening

[slow cosmos]

Cant find it, is it like a skin obtained in dlc?

[strange gale]

vulkan only supports a global reshade installation, meaning it affects every vulkan game you might have and that's why there's no config for it in your DE folder

[jaunty dew]

Have you ever thought "Damn this buffed demon strong, I wish I could kill it with high damage from range" then you realise Lock-on Burst exists

[azure oriole]

oh

[azure oriole]

i see

[azure oriole]

did you check the milestones?

[slow cosmos]

I checked every single one except tag1 and tag2

[azure oriole]

let me check tag 1 and 2 maybe it's in the dlc

[slow cosmos]

k

[tacit orchid]

Viridian Empyrean was the part of TAG1 I believe

As it's a recolor of Maykr Slayer

[slow cosmos]

NOOO-

[jaunty dew]

Wait so is Gold Slayer or Gold Pedestal unlocked on beating the whole game in UNM

[azure oriole]

Nope it's not a part of tag 1 or 2

[slow cosmos]

Wait it isn't?

[tacit orchid]

It is. It was a part of Maykr Slayer set.

[slow cosmos]

Man I'm getting mixed signals here

[azure oriole]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1083430967311605833/1123933350168629338/20230629163928_1.jpg?width=891&height=501

[tacit orchid]

There were 3, Fallen Angel, Maykr Slayer and Viridian Empyrean.

[azure oriole]

It is a part of maykr collection but idk how it's rewarded

[tacit orchid]

By getting TAG1.

[azure oriole]

@slow cosmos do you have tag 1

[slow cosmos]

Fuck I don't

[tacit orchid]

There you go

[azure oriole]

ah now i see

[slow cosmos]

How much does both tag1 and tag2 cost altogether anyway?

[azure oriole]

the sale will start in a few hours
check the prices then

[slow cosmos]

Define a few

[tacit orchid]

30€ if you get the Pass including both, but there will be a Summer Sale

Should start since around 7 PM CET

[azure oriole]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1083430967311605833/1123933952462299166/image.png?width=891&height=335

about 6 hours you can say

[slow cosmos]

From now?

[azure oriole]

yes

[tacit orchid]

Ye

[slow cosmos]

Oh

[tacit orchid]

Pass is bit cheaper and gets you both TAGs, so see that one

[slow cosmos]

How...coincidental lol

[azure oriole]

one year pass is a deal yea

[slow cosmos]

Where do I get the pass? Like on the Doom Eternal page on steam?

[azure oriole]

it is on steam

[tacit orchid]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1098291/DOOM_Eternal_Year_One_Pass/

[azure oriole]

I think it's cheaper on gamepass
not sure tho

[tacit orchid]

Well if they own the base game on Steam, might as well complete the collection there

[azure oriole]

right

[slow cosmos]

Damnit I just changed my steam language to whatever language it is now, somehow lol

Whatever the hell "实验室" is

[azure oriole]

korean maybe

[slow cosmos]

How must thy changeth thy lingo back

[tacit orchid]

Chinese, if Google Translate recognition doesn't lie lol

[lusty pendant]

nah, korean has more circle and curves

[azure oriole]

how did you even change it in the first place lol

[slow cosmos]

I clicked on a banner on the front page of the store that looked chinese, and it suddenly changed the language

I think I got it sorted out holon

Ok we're good

[slow cosmos]

Now, how do I exactly get to there on the actual steam client, instead of a website?

[azure oriole]

search for it

[slow cosmos]

Nevermind I found it

The one that says 30 dollars right?

[tacit orchid]

Well if it says Y1Pass, then yes lol

[azure oriole]

yes

[slow cosmos]

Ight just making sure lol, thanks a bunch

[azure oriole]

actually it should cost him both tag 1 and 2 less when the sale's on
less than the y1 pass

[tacit orchid]

Of course, separate it would be 40 together

Oh, well this depends if the pass will get that sale, not everything does

[azure oriole]

yea

[tacit orchid]

If the DLCs separately will get the sales, than get them separately

[slow cosmos]

Well I don't need the extra "BATTLEMODE" feature in the Y1 pass, so it doesnt matter which one comes out to be less money

Tbh I'm excited lol

[tacit orchid]

1 is great. 2...is ok, I won't say exactly bad, just...you'll probably notice, won't spoil

[slow cosmos]

Thank you for the heads up, and thanks for not spoiling lol

[azure oriole]

both are great yea but tag 1 is more enjoyable

[slow cosmos]

Mk, I'll keep that in mind

Is tag1 just gonna leave you at like, a cliffhanger or smth?

[azure oriole]

not really

[slow cosmos]

Meh, alright, I wont go further lol

[azure oriole]

tag 2 continues where tag 1 ends

[tacit orchid]

If you played 1 at the time where 2 wasn't a thing, it actually would, but yeah not now really

[slow cosmos]

Expected

[slow sigil]

Yeah it does

[azure oriole]

well you can just boot up tag 2 right after no need to wait for a cliffhanger curiosity phase

[slow cosmos]

Well now that tag2 is out it doesnt really give off the "feel" of a cliffhanger

[slow sigil]

If you look at just tag1 it does

[slow cosmos]

True

[slow cosmos]

Yea

[tacit orchid]

It rather just is...the outcome of it. You'll see for yourself

[slow cosmos]

That I will lol

[tacit orchid]

They both still are enjoyable times regardless, my favorite level actually is in TAG2 despite the controversies

[slow cosmos]

Wait why are there controversies?

[azure oriole]

cuz tag 2 is easier
a lot easier

[slow cosmos]

Doom eternal of all things has controversy???

[slow sigil]

Tag2 went too easy and the story is.... bad

[tacit orchid]

Difficulty spiking + where the story went

[slow cosmos]

Oh

Now I see why tag1 is considered "more enjoyable" lol

[azure oriole]

let me guess ||reclaimed earth||

[tacit orchid]

Difficulty does have reasonable explanation as to why it happened, the story part, not so much lol

[slow sigil]

Tag2 had time constraints so they kinda retconned parts of the story which makes it very muddled

[slow cosmos]

What kind of constraints? Like missed deadline or smth?

[slow sigil]

Story does, time constraints
I'd say the difficulty doesnt have an excuse, they could overtune it

[azure oriole]

covid 19

[tacit orchid]

Well, actually it competes with ||TWS||, depending

[slow cosmos]

Ohhhhhhh

[slow sigil]

It had 33% less time then tag1 during covid

[lusty pendant]

you could preorder the year 1 pass so they had to release both dlc in one year

[slow cosmos]

Huh, so covid just, backed everything up?

[azure oriole]

I dont really like the base level
but the ML is definitely the best one

[tacit orchid]

Depends, if you wanna please other audience than those that invested too much to the game

[tacit orchid]

For sure. Completed it on UN.

[lusty pendant]

yaeh and due to the deadline they couldn't delay it and it was noticeable

[slow sigil]

Tbf they could delay it definitely

[slow cosmos]

And then people got mad about it?

[slow sigil]

Considering it was extremely dissapointing at release, yes

[azure oriole]

They could've extended the year pass time and worked on tag 2 a bit longer

[slow cosmos]

Yowch

[lusty pendant]

well they were disapointed the thing that madde them mad was that they also changed tag1, which people payed for, to be easier

[tacit orchid]

The fanbase that wanted a difficulty spike that TAG1 already provided certainly did. I would also have no problems with extending the pass to have more work at TAG2

[azure oriole]

Well tag 1 was also in controvery cuz some people thought it was too hard

[slow cosmos]

They made tag1 easier???

[azure oriole]

some arena fights are easier now

[lusty pendant]

it is brutal and not for everyone

[tacit orchid]

Yes, there even is a mod that restores the original layout on release.

[slow cosmos]

Give. Right. Now

[lusty pendant]

removed some demons like a couple right at the start

[azure oriole]

you should first get accustomed to the levels we have now

[tacit orchid]

Not in modding servers anymore, gotta search or someone else that happens to have it

[slow cosmos]

Ugh, fine

[azure oriole]

It's on nexus mods

[tacit orchid]

Can be

[lusty pendant]

they returned a lot of the stuff they removed, some things are still missing but I found that one section rather annoying than challenging anyways

[slow cosmos]

Main reason I play these types of games is for the challenge, and story ofc lol

[slow cosmos]

Mind giving me a hint on which section?

[azure oriole]

I hate that they didnt replace the possessed hell knight with the possessed baron back in level 2

[lusty pendant]

"It might sound insane to you but I play doom eternal for the plot"

[slow cosmos]

Fr

[lusty pendant]

yeah, but tbh I don't miss ||the tentacles in the fog||

[azure oriole]

right lmao

[slow sigil]

Yeah but wayyy less

With tag2 everyone that didnt like a skillbased game being hard already left

[azure oriole]

and funi ||hammer||

[slow cosmos]

No need to censor that, I already know of the funni hammer

[azure oriole]

lol

[tacit orchid]

That trivializes stuff, challenges like no hammer

[slow cosmos]

Horde mode got me fucked up 💀

[azure oriole]

have you tried proteh's horde mode

[slow sigil]

If anything the hammer is the perfect excuse to make tag2 balls to the wall hard

[slow cosmos]

No, is it a mod?

[azure oriole]

yes

[tacit orchid]

Yes, there are 2 parts

[slow sigil]

But that would still be quite dumb cause a dlc shouldnt be that hard

[azure oriole]

it's much better than the base horde mode

[slow cosmos]

Please don't tell me you get hammer in tag2 please don't tell me you get hammer in tag2 please don't tell me you get hammer in tag2

[slow sigil]

ok, i wont tell you

[azure oriole]

not to spoil or anything but you'll see for yourself

[slow cosmos]

BHVHILFGYOLVBGFGBO

[tacit orchid]

The "official" Horde I kinda consider Arcade, just not in the sense of Arcade like 2016 was

[azure oriole]

yea

[slow cosmos]

Anyway, back to proteh horde mode

[tacit orchid]

• hints like coin hunting? "Arcade"y too much

[azure oriole]

i hate the coins

[slow cosmos]

Two parts, right? Whaddya mean by two parts tho

[tacit orchid]

There is a "base game" one and an "after-TAG1" one

[slow cosmos]

Huh

[azure oriole]

the slayer gate arena
is used for part 1

[slow cosmos]

Base game is just regular horde mode, but after-tag1 is where it gets different?

[azure oriole]

I don't remember but i think it takes place in tag 1's slayer gate arena

[slow sigil]

No proteh's mod

[slow cosmos]

Wait there's slayer gates in tag1

[azure oriole]

yes

[tacit orchid]

Mhm

[slow cosmos]

I'm gonna shoot someone

The slayer gates for the unmaykr took me long enough

How many slayer gates are in tag1

[azure oriole]

you sure you wanna know?

[tacit orchid]

Currently one of them also has quite a surprise for you, I hope you love Marauders :P

[slow cosmos]

...

[azure oriole]

yea fuck that one

[slow sigil]

2

[tacit orchid]

It can be easily spoiled when you learn how

[slow cosmos]

Thank, GOD

[slow sigil]

Wished i had 1 more in blood swamps ngl

[tacit orchid]

Spoiled as in how to beat that specific Marauder

Exploit rather being the right word

[slow sigil]

Dont have to

[slow cosmos]

Please don't tell me there are more than 2 marauders in a slayer gate

[azure oriole]

||mobile turret||

[azure oriole]

nah but there is a surprise like that

[slow cosmos]

Idnc if its a surprise, I'm fine with 2

[slow sigil]

3 would still be better

[azure oriole]

Yeah your pfp scared the fuck out of me

[slow cosmos]

4 or 5? I'm quitting the game

[azure oriole]

oh that reminds me

[slow cosmos]

No...

[azure oriole]

||ya'll know the world spear 5 marauders easter egg||

New 3ds xl

[tacit orchid]

One of the pleasant surprises of TAG2 for sure

[slow cosmos]

I'm not clicking this because I'm scared for however many marauders there will be

[azure oriole]

trust me you dont wanna know

[azure oriole]

Oh I already knew that

[slow cosmos]

Fuck man

[slow sigil]

It'w a secret optional

[azure oriole]

That's old news

[slow cosmos]

Man I gotta 100% it thoooo!!!!!

[tacit orchid]

But, I do highly anyway recommend to give those Proteh mods a shot as well, lots of room to improve on your mechanics and sometimes use those that you usually don't use

[azure oriole]

It's all about what's currently happening with eternal

[slow cosmos]

I'll check them out after I'm done with the dlcs

[slow sigil]

It's not required for 100%

[tacit orchid]

Yes, MM are actually useful somewhere haha

[azure oriole]

Zzz

[slow cosmos]

Thank you for this information, I am going to get some celebratory koolaid because of this fact

[azure oriole]

Nvm I'll just go now. Sorry

[azure oriole]

But for the lols you gotta try it

Never see me again

[slow cosmos]

I am trying my hardest to hold back my silliness

[azure oriole]

Goodbye 👋

Never forget me

[slow cosmos]

Mhm

Wait, if its not required for a 100% run, is it an easter egg?

@azure oriole

@slow sigil

[azure oriole]

yes

[tacit orchid]

It is

[slow cosmos]

Then I fear it may be the thing I dread

Give me advanced ways to deal with marauders

Ima need it bro lol

[tacit orchid]

Lock-on exploit

Deletes in a few seconds :P

[slow cosmos]

Elaborate 😎

[slow cosmos]

k lemme watch

What in the actual fuck

I am just rewatching this shit over and over lol

[slow sigil]

The power of SLOBS

[slow cosmos]

Guh

[tacit orchid]

But well also, in TAG2 you just simply have the bonker which trivilializes them to oblivion

[azure oriole]

it is so satisfying one cycling them

[slow cosmos]

Yea I found that out accidentally

Horde mode tripping

Ima just...play with my display sheathed katana in the living room while I question this video bro lol

[tacit orchid]

There used to be more exploits, but some were patched

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iwVGm7Jha8
Like this...

[slow sigil]

That one was just actually stupid, glad it was patched

[azure oriole]

this is funi

and then there's this

[tacit orchid]

Indeed. And we remember complaints how the Marauder was "hard"

[slow sigil]

I think tag1 had only like 2 forced marauder fights before their exploits got patched

[slow cosmos]

Now apparently he's easy

[tacit orchid]

Already was in the base game, you just had to use your brain.

[toxic leaf]

He was always easy

[slow sigil]

Literally ALL marauders in uaca where cheesable, blood swamps had just the fog fight, and urdak had 1 in your first arena i thought

[azure oriole]

people just didn't knew how to use the green eye flash window to do max damage

[tacit orchid]

And your eyes, as you could just literally watch the tutorial prompt shooting him with SSG. Than gaining knowledge about weapon swapping => oh, ya already have the now "classic" SSG Ballista combo to deal with him. Than expand on it.

[slow sigil]

Marauder was never hard, at launch many people just liked wining

The marauder is still annoying but he's not hard

[azure oriole]

After doing so many slob combos it feels super slow

[tacit orchid]

He rather just now can be, or becomes an annoyance

[lusty pendant]

I'm sorry 😭

[tacit orchid]

Sometimes buggy time windows, hitting you despite traffic light - yes, that still sometimes happens

[azure oriole]

sometime flashing green but not moving the shield away

that is especially noticable with possessed marauders

[tacit orchid]

So, he's not hard as in difficulty rather than just in the annoyances that can happen

[slow sigil]

Bal-ssg-bal is usually good enough, reliable 2 cycle with not much trouble

[azure oriole]

more like 2 and a half cycle

[slow sigil]

No, just 2

[azure oriole]

no what

[slow sigil]

Unless you count hin staggering as a "half"

[azure oriole]

[slow sigil]

Which i dont, getting him to stagger is enough

[tacit orchid]

Ah yeah I see how you mean it

[slow sigil]

You didn't do that, you did ssg-bal-ssg

The spread of the ssg makes it unreliable to start with

[azure oriole]

which does more damage
cuz ssg does more single hit damage than ballista

[tacit orchid]

Depends how you hit

[slow sigil]

Ssg has reduced damage against the marauder

[azure oriole]

ill try this

[slow sigil]

Both do about the same against him

[tacit orchid]

You actually can mess up a stagger with the SSG

[slow sigil]

You can always check the spreadsheet

[azure oriole]

hm

my keybinds are set in a way that ssg-ball-ssg is easier

but ill try doing the alternate

[tacit orchid]

Even better would be doing PB combos, but not everyone can master it

[slow sigil]

Pb bal is also a 2 cycle but is tighter but you can do it from a range

[azure oriole]

I have learned slob combos now so that combo is old for me

and then there's the really easy mobile turret thing

[slow sigil]

Isn't that more just for pos mara

[azure oriole]

haven't tried against regular ones

but if it works for possessed why shouldnt it work for the normal ones

[slow sigil]

Cause pos mara is more aggressive so they will attack whilst shield is raised that quickly

[azure oriole]

https://youtu.be/DRmdfGlzq5s

I saw the mobile turret combo against a regular marauder in this vid

nvm he uses grenades to achieve it

[jaunty dew]

So uh I just beat TAG2 and... yeah now I know why people trashed on it for being easy

[strange gale]

you only need to hit 4 out of 16 pellets to get a falter there so it'd be impressive to mess up that bad

[slow sigil]

Used to be even easier

[azure oriole]

the possessed marauder most of the time does not stagger with the ssg

is it something to do with pellet spread

[lusty pendant]

possesed demons can't stagger

not even from grenades

[azure oriole]

no im talking about marauders
they do stagger but it's so unreliable

also i meant falter

[jaunty dew]

How?

Don't tell me Hammer filled on one glory kill instead of two

[azure oriole]

no the arenas were a lot easier

[jaunty dew]

Oh enemy spread

Which update made TAG2 less easy

6.66?

[lusty pendant]

my bad

[azure oriole]

dont know but it's a bit harder now
just a tiny bit

[lusty pendant]

now I get it, the falter from the ssg depends on how much damage you deal (ballista and rockets can falter too)
so since possesed demons have dr it is easier to mess up

[azure oriole]

exactly

[jaunty dew]

Hammer makes TAG2 a breeze

[azure oriole]

cant say that for the WS ML

[lusty pendant]

like most super weapons I never used it but it was still rather easy

[azure oriole]

ballista is consistent so i guess getting a falter is guaranteed on the possessed marauder

[jaunty dew]

I'll try a playthrough without the Hammer, but it will be kinda tough because a lot of encounter zones are balanced around it

[azure oriole]

not really

[lusty pendant]

it doesn't have spread so it deals enough damage

[azure oriole]

yea

[slow sigil]

In tag2 eh you can get through it with hammer
Except davoth

[jaunty dew]

I mean there's one in TWS where you're stuck in a small space with 4 Spectre Pinkies

[azure oriole]

you can beat davoth without the hammer if you have 25 minutes to spare

[slow sigil]

Spectre pinkies dont have their armor so you can just point blank ssg them

[azure oriole]

you can just blood punch

[jaunty dew]

WTFFFFFFFF

[azure oriole]

yea i found that out the hard way in 2016

[jaunty dew]

Bruh

[azure oriole]

they get staggered to one pb and one ssg shot

[jaunty dew]

And here I was, jumping about and Freezing them

Damn, what about spectre whiplashes

[lusty pendant]

and I always did cool air movement to get behind and/or blood punch

[slow sigil]

Just a whiplash you can't lock on

[azure oriole]

the shield bash also works well
If you dont have bp available

it also works wonders on regular pinkies

[lusty pendant]

or I just remote det falter + ssg from behind

[azure oriole]

hmm remote det

it's easier to pb rocket with remote det but i dont like the mod
sure it provides a soft falter but lock on is superior

[lusty pendant]

I use both

[slow sigil]

Having to first modswap is quite tedious

And then modswap back
It's just ok if you know you are gonna have a specific encounter that is better with that 1 mod but even then

Better to just do something else like microwave-ssg in back

[azure oriole]

I've never used remote det and i can say it's not needed anywhere

[lusty pendant]

I move around quite a lot I just modswap whenever I once again yeet myself across the entire arena with the meathook

[azure oriole]

you can mod swap switch
like it's a tech where you press mod swap button and then switch to another weapon
