[azure oriole]

who else is happy that the anbernic rg35xx sp will release tomorrow

[dreamy plume]

OH

HOLY FUCKING SHIT I FUCKING GOT THE AURUM SKIN

[gentle shale]

what the actual fuck is that

[azure oriole]

do you remember the gameboy advance sp?

[gentle shale]

yea

[azure oriole]

it's like a $60 version of that except it can play dreamcast, n64, ps1, psp, and ds games and much more.

ports like doom and flappy bird as well are playable

[gentle shale]

holy shit

awesome

[azure oriole]

search up "anbernic rg35xx sp" to find out more

[gentle shale]

alr bet

[rancid pawn]

Getting closer to Nekravol part 1. 3/4ths of the way through Taras Nabad. I took a day break from playing.

[serene stone]

Why do people seem to label 2016 and Eternal together like they're the same game?

[serene stone]

For example people will say "in the new DOOM games, the Cacodemons are a joke because they swallow grenades and insta die. Classic Cacos are so much better"

Bruv that's literally only an Eternal thing. Just because Eternal did it, doesn't mean 2016 did and vice versa.

[signal widget]

and they're pretty easy in classic doom

[serene stone]

Yeah. 2-3 rockets or 2-3 SSG shots.

BFG and Plasma also destroy them too.

They're kinda tanky to the Chaingun, but it stun locks the fuck out of them so it's barely an issue except when ammo's scarce of course

[gray kiln]

The icon of sin implies the icon of cos

[gray skiff]

youre just casually unlocking core parts of my brain in a doom discord wtf

[dreamy plume]

the marauder standing still with 3 birds flying around his head while i charge towards him about to turn his skull into a mushroom with a 12-gauge double barrel shotgun in my hands and a argent energy firing unmaykr (he got stunnedby the fucking grenade)

[azure oriole]

Why do you need to turn his head into a mushroom?

Oh yes and uh

Arbalest. Prowler. 400. 1200. 1000.

[austere bronze]

Because he's the marauder and deserves nothing less

[quiet token]

I can see died

Mmm cheeseburger

[hasty wolf]

day 3 of asking for some advice how to fix my doom

[burnt herald]

cursed knowledge increased

[ebon jacinth]

i was playing DooM Eternal (Nintendo Switch) Nightmare difficulty in The Ancient Gods, and then the game crashes.... i notice that the Load Screen takes forever, so i take off the Internet for a while, then i could enter in "Settings" and change a few things (Difficulty) Otherwise the Loading screen takes forever to Load.

[burnt herald]

doom on switch

[ebon jacinth]

yeah i know.

i like to take DooM Werever the place i like it. Portable.

i make a few Twitch gameplays, i finished Doom and DooM II Hell on earth (The first doom crashed, lucky i saved it, but i fisnished all missions in just 3 hours and a half.

i hate when DooM(2016) or Eternal crash, there you can´t autosave.

[rare flint]

My games don't crash plus you can watch my little brothers live stream were he plays on my xbox

Doom eternal by the way

He streams on my account twitch. Com/nomadboi2012

And I found a secret were you can play doom 1 and doom 2 in doom eternal

My brother just started streaming

Me when the Bois don't respawn

[azure oriole]

this reminded me of the time when I was playing Doom 2016 and for some reason, when some big jetpack skeleton killed me, my steam deck froze.
doom man was frozen, too, and in third person for some reason and I can't find any reason to why

I think the jetpack skeleton is a Revenant

[rare flint]

[rare flint]

This is me when the teacher hands out a pop quiz

[small helm]

I had like one crash and only in Eternal on switch

it was exultia and it crashed the moment pain elemental appeared on screen

never happened again after that

[rare flint]

https://tenor.com/view/doom-slayer-gif-25596918

Me and my little sister

[azure oriole]

did that by any chance happen on your first time playing?

[small helm]

Yeah, after that i didn't encounter any issues

[rare flint]

https://tenor.com/view/doomguy-gif-20038205

[azure oriole]

switch probably got scared of seeing pain elemental and froze up in fear

[wicked karma]

Hi everyone! I 'm looking for 1 more person to do the MP achievements on Steam.

[rare flint]

Me when my little cousin thought he was the king

[small helm]

I honestly really enjoyed playing game on switch, was a great excuse to blast blood swamps and immora on bus rides to work

[azure oriole]

I like Doom Eternal as well. One of the best games I've ever played
Never played it on switch cuz I don't got one, but I still have Yuzu...

[small helm]

It's ok, i graduated from switch to Steam Deck and ROG Ally now

[azure oriole]

and now rog ally X is coming

with reported better graphics, power, grips, and black color

[small helm]

We'll see about that when it comes out, I optimized current one to its limits

4 hours of eternal guaranteed

[azure oriole]

Just found out that Doom Eternal is (or was) playable on Android.

If you still have a good Switch emulator and an Android device, you can get the Doom Eternal Switch ROM and play it on your Android device.

[small helm]

playing games like this on phone isn't worth it, unless you got one of these gamepad thingies to make it playable

[austere bronze]

yeah, even playing it on PC is hard enough

[small helm]

not really

[austere bronze]

most people never even touch nightmare

and playing master levels on anything above HMP is a daunting task for many people

[silk python]

is it really

never really found that to be the case, not at least for me

[austere bronze]

yepp

the average difficulty on a normal campaign playthrough is probably ultra violence but many people are on hurt me plenty

[lyric lodge]

Remote play 🥶🥶

[small helm]

oh god, remote play is only good if your country has amazing infrastructure

I prefer having real thing hands on so i got said handheld PCs

[cyan sorrel]

Idk why tf my country recently banning steam , rip my doom eternal profile

Have to use vpn but it’s risky

[small helm]

let me guess, Vietnam? Cause i heard of bs going on there on another server

[cyan sorrel]

Yes

Reason still unclear though

[jolly kernel]

anyone here has a hard time avoiding these energy wave attacks that sometimes track you and push you back which some enemies use?

Whiplash, Carcass, Tyrant

what doesn't help is that they often fire those attacks in random directions, increasing the chance of them hitting you even more

[austere bronze]

yes, they are extremely hard to dodge since they track you

[silk python]

yeah its annoying, i use meathook and air control to stay in the air so that they dont hit me

[austere bronze]

and sometimes the tyrants ones will hit you way up in the air and/or deal a massive amount of damage

[lyric lodge]

Few days of an unwanted break on doom eternal and i died at least 8 times at the final arena of exultia

I have never been more cooked 😭🙏

[silk python]

ough

[austere bronze]

that arena aint even that hard

[silk python]

for me, when i reach doom hunter base thats when the game gets wayyy easier

[lyric lodge]

I fucked up the whole thing when i realised i went in with 8 sg ammo

[silk python]

gotta take advantage of onslaught powerup

i use it right when the cacodemon shows up

[austere bronze]

you may be in need of my banger eternal guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tul5d6LWJr8&t=40s

[lyric lodge]

I tried doing what mmafro did and that was the root of my deaths ☠️

[silk python]

you could see into the future with that fov

[lyric lodge]

I just gotta get back into the flow ngl i got new control binds too

[austere bronze]

you have no idea how hard it was to hit maykrs😭

[austere bronze]

yea, new binds might also explain some stuff, and this was obviously a joke tutorial

[silk python]

lmao im suprised you got the headshot in the first place

[silk python]

i set my key binds to doom 2016's keybinds, with a few adjustments

[austere bronze]

me too honestly

[silk python]

i played 2016 so fuckin long that it felt weird having certain weapons in different keybinds

since theres was no pistol i just put the bfg in its place lol

[austere bronze]

eternal was my first ever FPS so I had to make completely custom binds

[royal arch]

i got cooked on the doom 2016 tutorial nightmare difficulty

[lyric lodge]

Tutorial is crazy

[jolly kernel]

what doesn't help is that they tend to fire those attacks in random directions too

for example you might be strafing to left, but a Whiplash fires one to the right

[unreal flare]

imo there's no reason to use the pistol so I pretty much wouldn't bind it anywhere

I'd probably need it for the classic maps but you're NOT gonna catch me play the classic maps again I am not making that mistake again

[silk python]

2016 demons do not translate well in the classic maps

[royal arch]

especially pinkies

[silk python]

so true

[royal arch]

fuck pinkies i hate them so much

specters are tolerable

you will not catch me on those classic maps again

[rain bloom]

Anyone wanna help out with achievements

[slow sigil]

go onto battlemode and just grind em out against the players 👍

[rain bloom]

what a genius tip thanks

never thought of doing that

just go grind em out against other players 🤓

[royal arch]

one problem: aint nobody play battlemode

[slow sigil]

well yeah. They are achievments and that is how you achieve them

[rain bloom]

jesus christ

[silk python]

thats not entirely true, at least on pc

[austere bronze]

only 90% true

[silk python]

i havent played console version in a long time so maybe it is dead there

i wonder, do private matches count towards achievements in eternal? cuz i know 2016's mp didnt

[royal arch]

prolly not

[pearl viper]

Is there any reason why eternal takes forever to connect to the server? It's kinda annoying

[burnt herald]

its just today. Some issues with bethesda servers

I had random disconnects throughout the horde mode. Never happened before

[pearl viper]

Happens every time I play :<

[swift light]

Looking for 2 people to do the pvp trophy’s on ps5. Text me privat

[junior pasture]

So for the entirety of the game i have been using the chain saw wrong... ive been saving ALL my ammo and only using the chainsaw on big minions i thought worth it.... and infinitely spamming the grenade since it recharges since i thought the game had limited ammoo....... now im on DLC 2 highest difficulty... and just found out...

[steep whale]

Dumbass

I the hell am I talking

I died more times then i can count

[fossil bluff]

Tell me, the error appears "Could not save your game" how can I solve this?

[junior pasture]

I was with helding my shots of all my weapons.. micro managing my ammo... imagine that playthrough....

[steep whale]

Damn

[royal arch]

does it affect singleplayer?

[royal arch]

i didn’t use mods in 2016 up until spider mastermind

[silk python]

you mean to tell me you only used the weapons base fire up until the final battle

but why

was it to challange yourself

[unreal flare]

it's almost been 7 hours, here is your ping

[royal arch]

yay

[azure oriole]

<@&162901871168585728>

Yes, I'm playing dlc and when I die, it has to connect each time and it takes like a full minute.

[royal arch]

ruh roh

[lyric lodge]

Only save your chainsaw on earlier levels in the main game bro 😭😭

[regal walrus]

bro why is there 43 days left in the event thing???

last time i checked it was 14 💀

why tf did they increase the time

[signal widget]

I did that for most of the game and it was not fun, would only use it if I completely ran out of ammo. Till I learned gas cans are NOT rare

@young mango damn your older gameplay looks a lot less confident and not as skilled, it's incredible to see how you went from this to now being able to do this level without even taking health damage like it's a cakewalk, wish I was a god like you

[lyric lodge]

Dont wish, be

[umbral totem]

nah he has raw talent and I dont

[astral locust]

When is next doom game launching ?

[lyric lodge]

That is highly contradictive when your last message was talking about how unconfident tammie was a year ago

[proper wing]

A long ass time, either never or in the next generation

[umbral totem]

no i said b4 he was not as confident, but now he does it like it's easy af

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bre4lt4cyhU&t=816s watch this video to see his modernized talents that is who i aspire to be laik

[lyric lodge]

yeah, exactly. so that completely contradicts your idea of raw talent, knowing damn well he wasnt so good back then

[umbral totem]

ya but even after like 60-70 hours in this game i'm still too shitty

[lyric lodge]

Idk bro, plob has 1k. Its all a matter of time and progress

[umbral totem]

can you beat all master levels on UN?

[lyric lodge]

I only have 100 and yes no im on console

Clearly he obtained such power from his default pfp

Having 17x more hours than i do is CRAZYY 😭🙏

[austere bronze]

I need to catch up

(I'm not going to be able to)

[lyric lodge]

Yeah so get a life 😭🙏

[austere bronze]

No

Still need to beat unbalanced cbt atlantica with only pb🗣️

Or at least the balanced one

Cuz the unbalanced one is basically impossible

[lyric lodge]

Just spam punchswap frfr 🗣🗣

[austere bronze]

Yes

Did that with SGN ML and only died once

[umbral totem]

yea why is it that it's always the no subscriber accounts that are god at this game

[lyric lodge]

Luck or smth idk

[austere bronze]

Because those people just upload vids of them playin wihich doesn't generate a ton of followers

[umbral totem]

yea fuark i used to think zero master was rank 1 doom eternal

[austere bronze]

Ah, the good ol' days

[lyric lodge]

Smvr even more og frfr

[austere bronze]

I remember watching zeromaster do master levels on UN with no hud when I couldn't even get close to the end of taras nabad ml

Now I could do what he does

[umbral totem]

skylar is the tech god though because he discovered all the techniques that experts like tammie use

[lyric lodge]

My goat

[austere bronze]

Almost every eternal tech was a team effort I believe

[lyric lodge]

Yet they named double lock on after my glorious king

[austere bronze]

Tru

[proper wing]

Man I suck at managing my weapons

[lyric lodge]

Then start managing em

[junior pasture]

How so? ammo is limited and doesnt recharge also..?

[strange gale]

hammer is charged with glory kills, and you can use your dash to set up glory kills without spending any ammo

so in a sense it does make the chainsaw almost irrelevant

[mortal aspen]

Hey guys, small question if you don’t mind. I’m nearly finished with the base game, is there an NG+ or something similar? If not, and if I’m warning to go for 100%, which I am, can you replay levels afterwards or something to be able to closer achieve 100%?

[junior pasture]

dash ? how

[strange gale]

the dash deals damage, enough to stagger a zombie in 2 hits

[glossy warren]

dash deals more damage than fist 😢

[burnt herald]

The Year One Pass has been unlisted. So would I still be able to buy it from the Doom Eternal's page?

[acoustic lark]

Still there

Those are the different sub packages of the year one pass on steamdb. Should be available worldwide, in any country
https://store.steampowered.com/sub/370432/

[spring panther]

yeah

[young mango]

just some phrase

[burnt herald]

imagine speedrunners completing final sin in 3 minutes and one-shotting the IOS

[sturdy pasture]

is there a way i can buy skins for the slayer?

[novel vector]

check the dlcs

[serene stone]

How would that even work

Gameplay wise

[tardy pier]

I’m playing part 1 of the dlc, mission “resurrect the dark lord” (the part where you go back to urdak n stuff), is it normal for there to be an extremely loud windy noise even when I’m pausing the game?

[serene stone]

But imagine how Uber broken he'd be for players who take awhile to beat Urdak

[tacit aspen]

That would be horrible, I always take my time just looking at stuff haha

[knotty raptor]

Who is stronger night sentinels or Spartans from unsc?

[slow sigil]

if we account for the semi-magical siege weapons, the night sentinels

[knotty raptor]

And do you know how night sentinels train ? I wanna become one 😂

[glossy warren]

find sentinel prime

[knotty raptor]

I don't wanna die fighting the gladiator xd

[slow sigil]

tough luck

[finite elm]

What’s everyone’s favorite doom eternal level, not including dlcs? Mine has got to be sgn

[azure oriole]

Representing final sin fans over here

[young mango]

my personal favorite is probably immora

[glossy warren]

not including dlcs 🤓

for base game probably nekravol and for dlcs atlantica

[young mango]

sorry! TAG2 Is too goated!

[finite elm]

If I had to choose a different one it has to be either final sin or doom hunter base

[azure forum]

Final sin if not including dlcs

[dull herald]

do master levels count

umm tag 2 master level so funn..

[finite elm]

No tag

Just vanilla levels and the non dlc master levels

I really like final sim mainly because of the icon boss fight, but it still holds up without that

I LOVE the icon boss fight, with how you get essentially infinite crucible power, which means you use it’s true power constantly, and you have to deal damage to the icon

[halcyon remnant]

Gameplay-SGN, Design-Urdak

[finite elm]

Urdak is amazing looking but the combat is kinda meh

[halcyon remnant]

As i said Gameplay-SGN

[restive sapphire]

Anyone use the free scroll macro for bunny hopping?

[lyric lodge]

Hell on Earth because its the easiest

[finite elm]

It’s a little too easy for me tbh, cultist base is best end game when u have all weapons

[finite elm]

Sgn has some of the most fun gameplay in doom eternal, just the key collection and the master level final fight is amazing

[serene stone]

Doom Eternal crashed. Wtf

[serene stone]

Final Sin and Arc Complex have the best combat in the base game IMO

SGN feels a bit empty to me

[serene stone]

Overall I'd say:

1. Arc Complex
2. UAC Atlantica Facility
3. Nekravol Part 1 and 2
4. Final Sin
5. Reclaimed Earth or Mars Core (can't decide)

[real hound]

Bought Doom Eternal ultimate deluxe bundle adn Evil west on fanatical for 24 dollars, and here am, one of the best games.

[serene stone]

Honorable mentions go to:
Blood Swamps, Sentinel Prime (because Gladiator is awesome), and Cultist Base Master Level

I'm not a big fan of Super Gore Nest. It always surprises me how loved it gets. It's ugly, the pacing is whack, the interiors with the green goop remind me of Nickelodeon slime, and the fights feel easy and empty.

The music is pretty cool though.

[finite elm]

I love how gross it is

The creepy guts are peak doom level design

[serene stone]

It's not that it being "gross" that I dislike. It's that it looks like plastic toy gore and Nickelodeon slime and the color scheme is messy in a bad way.

[finite elm]

I understand the pacing problems, but still it’s fun for me

[serene stone]

The lighting is really washed out, flat, and cheap looking especially on the exteriors. Which bothers me

[finite elm]

I enjoy the colors personally, the pink ish just kinda hits that mark for me imo

[finite elm]

I really like how open some of the arenas are, and how packed it gets

[serene stone]

Arenas only really get packed on the Master Level. They feel empty on the base game

[serene stone]

It feels more orange and green to me if anything lol

[finite elm]

They feel like demon guts, like the slayer gate hearts,

I understand you though

[serene stone]

Shadow Warrior 3 did a Super Gore Nest type level and it looked a lot better to me aesthetically personally.

UAC Atlantica Facility is peak aesthetics.

Same for Nekravol.

Especially since the lighting on those two levels are phenomenal.

[finite elm]

Can we all agree tho, that the icon of sin fight is amazing

[serene stone]

I also really like Arc Complex aesthetically. It's got great atmosphere and world building to it, and the red skybox is badass

[restive sapphire]

Hey anyone using the free scroll macro rn?

[serene stone]

Arc Complex is also extremely detailed. It kinda feels realistic even .

[finite elm]

Like the tone of you fighting this thing David and the Goliath style, and the almost unlimited crucible pips that allow you to slash and stab with your sword while shooting everything you have at the icon, fighting for the human race, and eventually stabbing its head and taking it down, having it fall, while you walk away with no reaction. It’s badass and over the top and I love it

Also icon of sin got that GYATT

[serene stone]

I'm not really a big fan of Eternal's bosses outside of Gladiator personally.

The bosses definitely aren't the highlight of the game ngl lol

[finite elm]

I completely understand, but icon of sin vibe is great, can you agree

[serene stone]

First phase is sorta cool. Second phase loses me ... even vibe wise

Also he looks better in the armor than the skin

[finite elm]

Yeh I agree honestly

[finite elm]

Wish they didn’t break his skin to that extent

[serene stone]

What do you think of Gladiator? I think he's awesome.

[placid robin]

cant remember him

[rapid moat]

He's cool but the gameplay is ass

[serene stone]

Fr? He's the only boss gameplay that I liked.

[rapid moat]

All of them are kinda bad

Dont get me wrong i love eternal but the bosses could use some work

[serene stone]

https://tenor.com/view/mati-gif-22651933

[serene stone]

Agreed, except for Gladiator

[serene stone]

Especially Dork Lord lol

[rapid moat]

Fr

[young mango]

2 minute bossfight btw, 1 and a half minutes with hammer upgrades

[finite elm]

I enjoy gladiator, his first phase is the typical wait and counter, but I love that he eventually just goes nuts and you get an epic fight. Also his glory kill is amazing, and his boss theme is🔥🔥🔥

[serene stone]

Is this a reference to the Taras Nabad ML being drawnout convo?

[young mango]

no?

[restive sapphire]

Has anyone gotten the free scroll macro working?

It does not actually free scroll for me is there a setting to set the hertz at which to free scroll with

[regal walrus]

anyone know why they increased the event time???

last time i checked it was 14 days and then it went up to 40 days

[dull herald]

ummmmm perhaps u checked the event when it was almost done!!

[serene stone]

I love Gladiator because you can rain pain from above him with the meathook.... counteracting his shield.

So Doom Eternal crashed and it auto wiped my entire profile and I have to restart everything

1,400 hours wasted

Great fucking game sighs

[lyric lodge]

how the fuck

[austere bronze]

What?! That is really unlucky, didn't even know it could happen

Are you at least on PC so you can get back stuff easily?

[serene stone]

The game has always been really buggy for me, but nothing like this has ever happened

Xbox One S

[lyric lodge]

Bros making me fear for my ps5

How does a game even crash and then reset all your progress tho

Imagine if you bought skins

[serene stone]

Idk. The game crashed sometimes before but it never ruined my progress until now

Also I have a weird bug where the game crashes the vast majority of the time after the credits on The Holt, which is a big reason I very rarely try to finish The Holt

[serene stone]

Nope. But I unlocked various events skins that probably will never happen again

[lyric lodge]

Damn.

[serene stone]

Wait WTF

[lyric lodge]

Did bro get it back

[serene stone]

The game tricked me.

It reseted my menus and settings and the colors, and restored me back to default armor, icons, avatars, skins etc. It wanted me to set the brightness

It's telling me everything's new and shit like that.... giving me new player messages basically

But when I checked my skins and missions, everything's still there

How the fuck does that happen?

But my DOOM level is Reset

[jolly kernel]

I can't tell why but I like this glory kill so much

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/465235452148842518/1241678264678875186/blaster_soldier.mp4?ex=664b127f&is=6649c0ff&hm=6135bf3d4c03361ef334050f7fef331dd7c4a99083e0fd5b9057303e3ca6991c&

[lyric lodge]

The sound is sure satisfying

[serene stone]

I like the Arachnotron flip

Has anyone else had that happen where the game randomly resets everything to default and introduces you like you're a new player or it's a new account?

[jolly kernel]

no

[serene stone]

And resetted Doom Ranking too of course

Or Doom Level.

Or whatever it's called tbh

[jolly kernel]

now that I finished the main campaign, I completed all the campaigns of the game on ultra-nightmare!

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/465235452148842518/1241679387754238003/782330_20240518212706_1.png?ex=664b138b&is=6649c20b&hm=04065ff67214e0559048adb142ec85a053cae43c5d7f5bfb32769e975904a9e5&

[serene stone]

Nice

Sidenote; going on a Crucible spree on the Icon of Sin boss fight is really fun.

[jolly kernel]

the Icon Of Sin was definitely the hardest final boss to beat on ultra-nightmare with the endlessly respawning groups of strong enemies and the Icon itself using very strong attacks like meteors, beams from its head and the crushing punches that are basically one-hit kills

[serene stone]

I don't even like to use the Crucible. But that arena is like "fuck around with it" arena lpl

[serene stone]

He also pushes you around in jank ways, and his attacks can go through and even push you through walls and ceilings. Even without touching you because of the AoE lol.

He's whack

A bit of a janky fella

Also the game likes to auto target the fodder anyway, even if you're clearly looking at the big fat ass cannon dick right there lol

[jolly kernel]

the Icon frustrated me so much that I repeatedly cursed at him. constantly using op attacks and dealing what would be instakill crushing punches when I'm dealing with the endlessly respawning strong enemies and trying to get ammo if I didn't have saving throw

I definitely got frustrated, but I kept my anger in check and didn't became mad this bad that I screamed and cursed because I I repeatedly couldn't do something while playing a game lol

yeah... back then if I repeatedly couldn't do something in a game I got mad so bad that I screamed and cursed lol

[jolly kernel]

I also like the Tyrant kill where you repeatedly stab him in the brain then the eye

[serene stone]

I don't remember ever getting super mad at him, but he is spongey and tedious as hell

[jolly kernel]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/465235452148842518/1241680708850942025/tyrant.mp4?ex=664b14c6&is=6649c346&hm=c7b959596b45f0cab1adf87eb3b4296f91260df3a2bf9bd6ce2e1f6ac6ea98e1&

[serene stone]

Also I don't like his design when his armor is broken lol.

Though armored Icon looks pretty cool

[jolly kernel]

now with all the ultra-nightmare shit done and I got the rewards for beating each campaign on that difficulty, I never have to deal with that shit again and can go back to playing on ultra-violence

[serene stone]

I prefer the Berserk kills on the Tyrant

[jolly kernel]

ultra-violence is a perfect balance between challenge and fun

[serene stone]

That's a fair opinion

Wait what?

[jolly kernel]

tbh getting very mad at just a game is not healthy
yes, games are meant to be challenging and fun, but I should not get mad this bad that I repeatedly die/can't do something to the point that I scream and curse holy shit

[serene stone]

Lmao. Alright then

[serene stone]

Damn

[serene stone]

I think the most mad I got at a video game boss was Jingu from Yakuza Kiwami 1.

My reaction to him is probably very similar to your reaction with Eternal's Icon of Sin.

[serene stone]

It's funny because I didn't even die once to Jingu, I beat him the first try, yet I still got beyond angry

[jolly kernel]

though as I said I don't get mad so bad when things like that happen like I used to. often I just become slightly annoyed/disappointed

I just cursed at the Icon a lot (bruh) but I kept my anger in check and never started absolutely raging and screaming

[serene stone]

Lol

Have you seen Hugo Martin rage at IoS?

[lyric lodge]

Its just punch punch 🥶

[lyric lodge]

I would assume thats what doomguy felt when he fought him the first time

[jolly kernel]

bruh
when one of the developers of a game rages at a boss, that's something else

[serene stone]

The other one is just stab stab stab

[serene stone]

It's more of a goofy rage if anything:
https://youtu.be/3wvmt2gKzmI?si=9T1qJhEW2Rwt3k1e

[lyric lodge]

I oblige by hugo martin nerf everything 🙏🙏

[serene stone]

I just want him to nerf the purple goo in the sky

[lyric lodge]

I feel like there actually is purple goo in the sky but air control repels it 🤔🤔

[serene stone]

DOOM II Doomguy was wild

[lyric lodge]

Bro got a clean fade midst an apocalypse

[serene stone]

"the longer the Icon of Sin is on Earth the stronger he'll become"

Doomguy: "oh come on, no matter how strong he becomes he'll never be anywhere as hard as when I first fought Icon of Sin in DOOM II. Get out of here, drunk Hayden"

[lyric lodge]

How could hayden get drunk if hes a robot 🤔

[serene stone]

I didn't say that, Doomguy did. Ask Doomguy

[lyric lodge]

i mustve forgotten who that is

[serene stone]

Futurama

[lyric lodge]

Nvm its the robot from fortnite

[serene stone]

Yeee, Fortnite lul

[lyric lodge]

[serene stone]

Samuel Hayden is just Bender in serious mode

[lyric lodge]

But hes 7ft tall and has a badass voice

[serene stone]

John DiMaggio has one of the most badass voices ever

Yup Jake has a very badass voice indeed

Put John DiMaggio in DOOM External you cowards

The sequel to DOOM Internal

[serene stone]

Leaked new DOOM game art style

[proper wing]

Do I get the arbalest, micro beam, mobile turret or energy shield mod?

I’m thinking about these right now and I’m not sure
I’m worried about pain elementals, but at the same time all the other mods are good in my eyes

[normal urchin]

my friend and i both just stared multiplayer, we're both kinda noobs but we'd like to learn, if anybody wants to be our 3rd dm me 🙂

[neat mortar]

got the golden combat shotgun

[slow sigil]

shield is the best mod in the game

[serene stone]

No it's not, the ....uhhhh....ummm....the full auto against a Tyrant is the best mod. Uhh yeah

[serene stone]

Either Arbalest or Shield.

Mobile turret is straight up garbage tbh, and microwave beam is very situational

[neat mortar]

shield and precision bolt are the best

[neat mortar]

Microwave beam is only useful in tag

[slow sigil]

forced uses aren't real uses

[lyric lodge]

Microwave beam is fine for falters ig

[slow sigil]

It's finer to just damage and falter that way

[junior pasture]

Do marauders get damage when you stun them? i keep stunning them but not enough time for a 2nd shot...

[lyric lodge]

Quickswap.

[azure oriole]

quickswap

[junior pasture]

again same question

[azure oriole]

again same answer

[junior pasture]

is the stun itself damage?

first shot

[azure oriole]

yeah

[junior pasture]

so eventualy it would go in the finish state

[azure oriole]

wdym

also, marauders dont block grenades

use em

[slow sigil]

they do, but you should really have enough time to damage them again

[junior pasture]

nah im at the part where you face 2 of them at the same time, in a very short range corridor

only time to dodge

maybe if you got flick aim but im slow

[slow sigil]

Hold your mouse on 1

[junior pasture]

what?

[slow sigil]

dark souls is when arena FPS

[tiny hazel]

i have not played doom eternal in like a year are there new bugs like demons and slayer just being flung away? or is that a old bug?

like id glory kill demons and they fly away like team rocket its kinda funny

[junior pasture]

do maruaders get faster the more damaged they are?

[young mango]

no

[neat mortar]

they are only faster on higher difficulties

[junior pasture]

Im playing the higest

i get th feeling the more dmg they are they faster and more reponsivve they attakc

[mossy cargo]

Yo can anyon help me boost in battlemode to get the trophies

[serene stone]

The "connect to Bethesda servers" thing is so annoying. Always interrupting and making the game randomly pause, and there's an arena I keep trying to replay but the "connecting" makes it take six trillion years to load

I will never understand why this shit is mandatory for the campaign

[neat mortar]

that doesn't happen

[serene stone]

No, but their AI behavior and faltering can be very inconsistent, sporadic, and bugged.

[young mango]

just like play in offline mode, I mean personally I use DESRU’s firewall rule to block the games internet access, along with the fact I usually play on earlier versions so it can’t connect to the internet even if it wanted to

[serene stone]

I don't think you can play Eternal in offline mode on Xbox.

[young mango]

I mean theres not an offline mode but you can disable the connection to the internet

[serene stone]

Other people in the house use the Internet too lol

[young mango]

I mean specifically on the Xbox

[serene stone]

Anyway ever since the game reseted everything back to default yesterday and the game acted like it was a new account/profile, my brightness and gamma settings feel too bright and washed out compared to they used to.

I have been messing with the settings for atleast an hour and I just can't get it to look right anymore.

It's like it broke something in the game's graphics or something idk.

[novel vector]

i totally forgot that the seraphims being called ancient gods is actually wrong
https://youtu.be/vvR92UMjSfY?t=2039

[serene stone]

I don't really like messing with the Internet of Xbox, because it always tends to make things weird

But also I still like aiming for challenges and unlocking things

[junior pasture]

Can you kill marauder with bfG?

[serene stone]

Yeah. As he long as he's faltered or even staggered, or if you shoot at the sky and the tendrils catch him when he's not blocking

[serene stone]

Though the latter option is weird because it feels like it can take anywhere from 3 to 8 BFG shots to kill him if he's at full health.

[serene stone]

I messed around with that option with infinite ammo to see

But if you falter him with SSG or something then BFG him really fast while he's still faltered directly at him, he should die in one hit.

[trail ice]

Guys im haveing trouble with finding the mission of fighting the doom hunter

[storm eagle]

I'm having a really hard time beating the last portion of the Dark Lord in AG2. I'm using all the right weapons at the right time in the correct order but the heavies he's spawning are getting me. I make sure to keep the hell knight alive so he doesn't summon the rest as much but it's not working. I use the hammer then by the time I get new hammer ammo it's like a second too late. The regeneration is making me wanna break my computer lool

[storm eagle]

Taras Nabad?

[trail ice]

Yeah

[storm eagle]

It's at the end if I remember right

You're having trouble finding him or beating him?

[trail ice]

Finding him

[storm eagle]

I think it's at the end of the mission

[trail ice]

I need help finding the mission

[storm eagle]

one sec

[trail ice]

Because I beat the campaign

[junior pasture]

Is the BFG any use on the final boss in DLC 2?

[trail ice]

Bro when I beat ag2 I had no bullets for the bfg so I don’t know

[storm eagle]

may be Doom Hunter base

[trail ice]

K

[storm eagle]

Nope I tried, only does anything on the spawns

[storm eagle]

https://youtu.be/L6gOJ4hRyIQ?si=PrM_8S4hCorhFt6k

Doom Hunter base my bad

[trail ice]

Ok I found it ty

[storm eagle]

np! 🙂

[junior pasture]

what spawns does the final boss dlc 2 have?

[trail ice]

lol I’m on the train and I keep falling off😂😂😂

[storm eagle]

Mancubus, Pain Elemental, Tyrant, Baron of Hell

And those fuggin dogs/wolves

[trail ice]

At 2 do 3 of you guys wanna play battle mode with me

[austere bronze]

It's doom hunter base

Pretty self explanatory

[storm eagle]

damn I work but later tonight can

[trail ice]

Ok tell me when you can

[storm eagle]

I need more friends on here guys, feel free to add me. None of my female friends are gamers lol

[rich musk]

yo why does doom eternal go black on stream when i try to screenshare on discord

like i can see it and it runs fine but the other person can only see black

[junior pasture]

Those are only ghost versions right? or? ghost versions are gone with like 1 hit?

[storm eagle]

Yeah, I use the hammer of course. It's the regenerating Davoth that's making me rage out. I keep dashing away and he keeps getting me with his stupid shield

[torn mesa]

What do yall think of the marrauder...

[austere bronze]

kinda annoying

but I'm also bad at fighting him

[safe osprey]

You etiher hate him, or hate him even more

[storm eagle]

2nd this. Annoying, easier than other bosses imo. The dogs annoy me more than he does

[torn mesa]

He's so easy to kill, only i jumped when i had to fight 2 of em in UAC Atlantica Facility

[austere bronze]

it's so annoying how other demons can spawn his dog, that's the only thing that makes the dog annoying

they can also bring up his shield which has stopped his green eye flash so many times for me

[torn mesa]

Yea, shooting the shield activates the dog spawn, mancubusses and revenants can do that ttoo

[storm eagle]

Yo fighting multiple at once in the DLC made me boiling mad. Like that bridge part in Immora with the million screechers. Nope

[torn mesa]

RAHHH

[storm eagle]

1000%

[torn mesa]

I hate those screechers

[austere bronze]

every demon can do it

[torn mesa]

They add nothing, also i think all the ''New'' Enemies in teh DLCs should have their own skin, not a re-skin

[torn mesa]

I was saying an example

[storm eagle]

they are the worst

[austere bronze]

cursed prowlers are worse

[torn mesa]

Like, screechers add nothing

[storm eagle]

Omfg the cursed prowlers are ridiculous. Sometimes I think the devs just hate us lol

[torn mesa]

Prioritizing enemies is kinda nessecary

[austere bronze]

yes ofc

[austere bronze]

lmao fr tho

[torn mesa]

I always prioritize in this order; Baron, Hell knight, Revenant, Doom Hunter, Prowler, Mancubusses, and then fodder demons

Just use rockets to delete barons, easy as hell

[austere bronze]

I just kinda go into an arena and kill the some demons and later assess the situation

and depending on the arena and demons I'll decide what I'll kill

[trail ice]

I hate the marauder

[torn mesa]

Also, fighting archviles in TAG1 without crucible is so scary like wth

[austere bronze]

but since heavy demons die so quick if I enconter 1 I'll usually just kill it while moving

[young mango]

https://youtu.be/3fb99wQ-O5I?si=VdK1PWX0Wcl4RE6s

[storm eagle]

Bahaha I get that. Just freeze then either rockets or SSG+Ballista.

[torn mesa]

Wait what

[austere bronze]

I think dblade needs a buff tbh

[young mango]

no it does not😭😭

[austere bronze]

yuh uh, we need the quad-dblade

[young mango]

we already have that

[austere bronze]

wghatt

[young mango]

https://youtu.be/lxTmkA3Whdk?si=n8_jHuX0yq8EgvS4

[austere bronze]

huh, since when

[glossy warren]

do you just have a video for every scenario

[young mango]

perhaps

[glossy warren]

peculiar

[trail ice]

Do you guys think doom slayer would be a good skin in mortal combat

[austere bronze]

dude...
I think dblade needs a buff

like at least make it so us peasants can one shot a tyrant

otherwise I'll just use my fa and mwb combo to kill them

[young mango]

not to flex but I’m the one who discovered that doing it with the menu is possible

so that’s swag

it’s actually really jank, I’d say this strat is only viable for TAS

[junior pasture]

just wondering wether i should spend ALL BFG ammo before the finall boss fight, or save. im in the final area where you have to fight before the finall boss dlc 2

[storm eagle]

I don't think it really matters tbh. You only really need rockets, SSG, ballista, hammer, chaingun.

You use chainsaw for fodder and glory kill for hammer ammo, kill the dogs also for hammer ammo. Hammer for the Dark Lord and the spawns. BFG won't do anything on the boss, just the spawns if u wanna get them without hammer one cycle.

[opaque juniper]

Wish I had the dlcs

[junior pasture]

Hmm okay!

Does bfg work on the big armour units?

[storm eagle]

Pretty sure

[glossy warren]

the amored barons? not well, just heats up the armor near the point of breaking off

[serene stone]

What do you mean finding? There's no secret levels

[serene stone]

He's either too easy and lame....or too janky, inconsistent, and doesn't function properly or correctly at all in terms of faltering and AI behavior.

He just isn't a very good enemy.

I actually did used to like him awhile back though

[torn mesa]

Dayum

[serene stone]

Also he loves to get stuck on literally everything. LOL

So many times he gets stuck on random terrain and then he just dies lmfao

[torn mesa]

Eh

I feel like its harder to play on console tho

[serene stone]

Is that what you play on?

[torn mesa]

Yh

Why?

[serene stone]

Same. I play on Xbox One S.

[glossy warren]

he's supposed to be fun and challenging but falls down to red light green light

[neat mortar]

He can be annoying when he is possessed

[glossy warren]

maybe the 1st - 2nd time you fight him he's hard but after that, its a total pushover

[serene stone]

Not just that, but he's also just extremely buggy and dysfunctional. Lol.

[glossy warren]

that too

[serene stone]

Especially when possessed....or atleast when in groups of enemies

Sticky terrain and enemy groups completely sabotages his entire behavior and faltering lol

[serene stone]

He's definitely EXTRA buggy and dysfunctional when possessed....but he just doesn't work correctly in general

[neat mortar]

The only time it caused me a problem was in the super gore nest master level when two of them appear at once in the acid

[serene stone]

What do y'all think of the Armored Baron? I think he's pretty cool.

Fun fact: heat blast can falter Armored Barons, and after that, you can falter them in general after a heat blast.

It like glitches up their armor. I learned this from Sylar like a year or two ago.

[serene stone]

That was actually one of his least buggy moments for me, because it's flatter simpler terrain and there's not too many enemies and fodders fucking up his behavior and pathing.

[neat mortar]

I find armored barons easier to kill than regular ones

[serene stone]

What?

They're literally the same as regular Barons but with armor.

How does that work?

[strange gale]

that specifically has to do with yeetblast/multiblast, regular heatblast is a waste there

[neat mortar]

because armored barons are less aggressive than normal barons, they are easier to dodge attacks, and armored barons stop to attack, and this makes them very vulnerable, and armored barons spawn alone, normal ones appear more than one

[serene stone]

But it always works when I regular heat blast though

[serene stone]

When they lose the armor, don't they act like normal Barons until the armor comes back?

[neat mortar]

they remain less aggressive, and if I'm not mistaken they don't throw projectiles when the armor is broken

[serene stone]

Looks like even Sylar's video says regular heat blast works too, just that yeet blast is EXTRA effective

[serene stone]

Do they really not?

Guess I destroy Barons too fast to notice

[neat mortar]

im gonna test it

[serene stone]

Nice

[neat mortar]

yeah they dont throw projectiles

[mossy cargo]

yo is anyone open to helping me boost for the battlemode trophies

[strange gale]

sure, but regular heat blast does no damage considering the ammo investment

[young mango]

also considering how much base fire it takes to charge a heatblast I’m pretty sure you could just wittle him down normally atp

idk I don’t even use plasma rifle too much anymore

[azure forum]

Hey Tammie, I wanted to ask you something, remember the bug where the dead tyrant stands? Does it happen with other demons as well? I had it happen with a cybermanc too

[young mango]

it’s very much possible, considering that I’ve only had the dead tyrant glitch happen 3 times in my 1700+ hours, it’s not impossible to assume it could work for other enemies as well considering how uncommon it is

[serene stone]

Interesting. Guess I destroy them too fast to have noticed

Oh well they look badass though

[serene stone]

True though you can stun lock them for free with blood punches or chaingun shields for example after even the weakest heat blasts.

[young mango]

also if I had to theorize why this happens it’s probably something to do with enemy ragdolls getting confused for live enemies animations and creating a null enemy

[serene stone]

Reclaimed Earth is peak, because it's not only gorgeous as fuck, and has packed arenas and awesome music, but hammer combos combined with punch swap and blood punch chains and Ballista boosts go so fucking hard

[serene stone]

Idk I really love the colors and lighting of Reclaimed Earth. Reminds me a lot of CryEngine/Crysis games tbh.

Also the ending room with the portal literally looks like some Titanfall 2 shit like straight up.

Using hammer as a triple or quadruple jump (if you already count a meathook jump as a form of double jump I mean) to get get to an enemy higher than you >>>>>

[serene stone]

I'd go as far as to say Reclaimed Earth goes harder than most of Mick Gordon's tracks.

[proper wing]

I had a weird dream where I had the Gauss rifle and was encountering a tyrant in a doom 2016 looking level

[dim atlas]

did you circle strafe him

[serene stone]

That sounds pretty fucking awesome tbh

I feel like 3 or 4 siege modes would unironically destroy a Tyrant if they were in DOOM 2016.

Imagine if there was a boss fight where 2016 Cyberdemon returns but he summons Eternal Tyrants to aid him. That would be peaaaak.

[serene stone]

And yes I know 4 destroyer blades staggers a Tyrant, but 3 or 4 Siege modes would just blow him up or decapitate him lol

[young mango]

2 siege mode shots to gib a hellknight as opposed to a single dblade to stagger one in doom eternal, using that as a baseline, that means at maximum siege mode would deal the doom eternal equivalent of 2499 damage and at minimum would deal the doom eternal equivalent of 1250 damage so let’s do the average of 1874.5, meaning it’d take 6 siege mode shots to kill a tyrant in doom eternal using the hellknight ( and nothing else, so this might be inaccurate ) as a baseline

[serene stone]

1 siege mode kills a Hell Knight in 2016 doe

2 siege modes kill a Baron

[young mango]

really? damn it’s been a while

[serene stone]

2 Siege modes also kill a Cyber Mancubus

[young mango]

wtf

damn it’s op, well tbh I just wanted an excuse to bust out the math

but yea I guess you’re right

[serene stone]

I tested Eternal today, and it takes 3 destroyer Blades to kill a Baron.

[young mango]

makes sense, 2400 x 3 = 7200

[serene stone]

Eternal's Barons are also a bit tougher, so Destroyer Blade isn't that much weaker than 2016, but it's more balanced because it doesn't charge nearly as fast

[serene stone]

Also straight up slices him in 1 hit. Like not even a stagger. He just gets deleted lmao

[strange gale]

menu dblade tho

[dim atlas]

i dont even use destroyer blades

if i want crowd control i can just use combat shotgun grenade

[strange gale]

el no sabe

[serene stone]

Yeah double shot D blade more broken than Siege mode lol

[serene stone]

Blood punch chains >>>

[dim atlas]

but does it count as a chain if you can only do it twice

[serene stone]

You can do it way more than twice if you make a bunch of armor and/or health pickups

You can basically do it forever theoretically

[dim atlas]

oh i remember theres a crystal upgrade so armour and health pickups contribute to blood punch if they're full

[serene stone]

Yup.

[dim atlas]

makes sense now

[young mango]

armor for blood and health for blood gotta be some of the dumbest upgrades ever because it doesn’t work on an amount basis it works on a how many pickups basis so like 10 armor shards and 10 armor chest plates give the same amount

[dim atlas]

(my health is never full so i will never be able to infinity blood punch)

[serene stone]

Flame belch and flaming meathook with grenades especially combined with Arbalest and ice bomb is a fantastic way to get a bunch of health and armor pick ups

[serene stone]

Don't even need full health. Even just armor pick ups can do the trick

[dim atlas]

i rarely use arbalest for crowd clearance, i use combat shotgun grenade

[serene stone]

???, I like how you don't need to glory kill to get extra blood punches

[dim atlas]

do you not like glory kills???????

[young mango]

to be fair out of all the weapons that do major splash damage, arbalest is the only one with a charge up

[young mango]

I’m not saying the upgrade itself is dumb I’m saying the way it works is dumb

[dim atlas]

and also the only one to use more than one ammo

[serene stone]

They get so old and disrupt the combat flow, and you can't really do a fluid blood punch chain when you do them.

[urban plover]

the glory kills are alright, they just have that similiar glory kills from 2016

[serene stone]

I do like abusing i-frames and getting my speed boost from glory kills though

[dim atlas]

just take the rune that makes them go faster

[serene stone]

I already use that

[dim atlas]

this new blood punch chain meta is kinda silly ngl

[serene stone]

I think it's fun. Shrugs

[young mango]

refilling both bloodpunches by meathook super shotgun into a fodder as opposed to picking up like a dozen chest plates and NOT getting two

seems really counterintuitive and it seems to incentivize simpler solutions

[serene stone]

IMO Sticky Bombs don't work as well at refilling blood punches with flaming crowds, but it's still p gid

[dim atlas]

the only times i actually use blood punches intentionally is against cyber mancubuses and when i'm going postal on a super heavy

[serene stone]

Also I like Arbalest so I can auto charge a shield launch with my Chaingun to add for the peak crowd control

[dim atlas]

peak crowd control is bfg

[serene stone]

Ehh, that's just more like anti crowd control, because it makes it so crowds don't exist.

Laaame

[dim atlas]

it controls the crowds by destroying the crowds

[serene stone]

In Classic DOOM, the BFG was a cool and fun crowd control weapon that was surprisingly pretty skillful though

Also Eternal's BFG only has two shots and not very much refills, so it's barely useful anyway

Advance waves can also take awhile to spawn. So yeah

[dim atlas]

tbf if you could use bfg more often you could basically blow your way through every encounter in the game

[serene stone]

Eternal does reuse a good deal of 2016 glory kills. True

[serene stone]

Exactly, it just isn't a fun weapon.

They should have reworked it to work similar to Classic DOOM

[dim atlas]

uninitutively?

[serene stone]

Also Classic DOOM BFG can carry plenty of ammo without being completely unbalanced and super easy

[dim atlas]

at no point in classic doom does it mention that the bfg shoots 50 invisible projectiles when it connects

the bfg is MEANT to be unbalanced, it's the BFG

[serene stone]

There's a lot of weapon mechanics that the games don't explain in every DOOM game

[serene stone]

Ehhh. It can be super powerful (which the Classic DOOM one is) but deleting everything with just a single button is a bit too far.

You can two hit kill Cyberdemons with Classic DOOM's BFG, but it's very tricky and you have to be very close to him.

Making him a risk vs reward, but overpowered when used well

You feel like you EARN being overpowered AF when you use the Classic BFG well. If that makes sense.

Quake II BFG is probably my favorite though.

[dim atlas]

it helps that you get the bfg close to the end of the game so it can kind of afford to be overpowered

[serene stone]

Also New DOOM could have added that detail, just because Classic Doom didn't, doesn't mean New DOOM can't tell you

I mean Eternal even tells you quick swapping removes lag on the loading screen, but 2016 never told you that.

[serene stone]

For the classic one?

[dim atlas]

wait quickswapping removes loading screen lag

[dim atlas]

classic doom yeah. with new doom you get the bfg about 60% of the way through the game so it does have to be toned down a bit

[serene stone]

No the loading screen has a tip that tells you that quick swapping removes cool down on your weapons

[dim atlas]

oh right

i thought you meant it sped up the loading screen lol

[serene stone]

How would that work lol

[dim atlas]

i do think that the unmaykr fufills a similar purpose to the classic bfg being used up close

i feel like i heard somewhere that the unmaykr does more damage per unit of ammo but im not sure

either way, it's better against single targets and it's better at ammo conservation than the bfg

the crucible is sort of in a similar situation as well, since it can one shot any enemy (bar doom hunters) but you only have three blades that can only be filled by very rare pickups around the map

[serene stone]

Crucible is basically 2016 Chainsaw

[dim atlas]

the unmaykr and the crucible are both unlocked further into the game than the bfg as well

considering the sheer damage the bfg can do and the very limited ammo supply, i feel like it's intended to be used as a get out of jail free card, in a sense

if you're in a tight spot (or up against a boss) the bfg can and will wipe the floor with nearly every enemy around you

but using it too often, or at times where it'd be better to use less OP weapons punishes you for wasting ammo

it has its niche like literally every other weapon in the game, it's not a "i can use this all the time and it's fun" weapon

[strange gale]

the rate at which bfg tendrils deal damage is tied to your fps, so at high fps it's still better for single target damage

[dim atlas]

true, but that's if your not close to the target, which considering the speed at which the projectile travels could be necessary for some super heavies

[strange gale]

the tendrils have practically infinite range, that's irrelevant

[dim atlas]

you still miss the shot and miss out on a pretty big chunk of damage

the unmaykr has less burst damage but doesn't screw you as hard if you miss a few shots

and the crucible is just impossible to miss anyway

[strange gale]

you really don't miss that much damage

the projectile itself does 4000, tendrils can do 5000+ easily

for reference that's enough to kill a marauder with just tendril damage

[dim atlas]

yes but why would you be using a bfg against a marauder

[strange gale]

it's an example, that's not relevant

5000 is the 4th highest health pool out of base game enemies

[dim atlas]

5000+ damage is probably an ideal situation, in practice you're probably not going to get that much

and if you are, it's either A overkill for fodders or heavies or B helpful for super heavies but usually wont kill them in one go

the additional 4000 damage from the actual ball isn't the be all end all but it will absolutely help you out when you're against, say, a tyrant

if you want something that can deal maximum damage get a crucible blade

[strange gale]

no, they deal 1500 damage per second on average

at reasonably high fps, you can even kill a tyrant with just tendril damage

[dim atlas]

how long would the ball have to be flying for that to be possible

[novel vector]

wait bfg's damage is based on fps?

on a game made in 2020

[young mango]

EVERYTHING is based on FPS in doom eternal

[strange gale]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/504714848194527236/984566960320827392/bfj.mp4

sometimes it'll live at like 200 health

[glossy warren]

yep

[novel vector]

dang i have a 200fps monitor

i should take advantage of this

[strange gale]

refresh rate is irrelevant here

[young mango]

don’t even worry about refresh rate, crank that shit up

[novel vector]

my computer usually does 200 fps on nightmare level graphics

so on the lowest settings....

[dim atlas]

you did have to go specifically out of your way to get that shot. not all tyrants show up in open air arenas, and that's not counting if another enemy blocks your shot

[young mango]

so now we’re just changing the goalpost

[dim atlas]

i'm saying that, in theory, yes you can one shot a tyrant, but in practice you'd need to specifically set that up

[strange gale]

we're ignoring the massive elephant in the room, that's still 10k tendril damage

tendrils ignore collision so the projectile just has to not hit anything

[dim atlas]

you could also just use the crucible

[strange gale]

3 kills and then you're out

[dim atlas]

blade pickups

and not using the crucible on an imp or smth

[young mango]

I mean how often are those really? why not just make the excuse of “bfg pickups” atp

[strange gale]

consider this: 10k damage applied to everything in the arena

the game does have an enemy cap so the tendrils will always be able to hit everything, and let me remind you, while ignoring all collision in the way

[neat mortar]

I don't really like the crucible, the sentinel hammer is far superior

[dim atlas]

10k damage is nasty but you have two shots, the projectile needs to not hit anything (easier said than done), and once you run out, you cant do it again

and there's most likely more enemies to spawn if you do it in an encounter

basically:
BFG: ridiculous damage to everything in the vicinity, but should only be used when absolutely necessary
unmaykr: single target, but a more conservative ammo usage
crucible: instantaneous death but very very rare ammo

it's basically a sliding scale of damage vs ammo conservation

sentinel hammer is a secret third thing, it's basically a blood punch that trades raw power for a longer stun time

[serene stone]

Definitely. Reclaimed Earth and WS ML hammer combos are peak

[neat mortar]

the crucible just can't kill the marauder, the doom hunter takes 2 hits to die.

[serene stone]

Sentinel Hammer also basically gives you free blood punches if you know what to do

[dim atlas]

you can actually kill the marauder with a crucible, it's just not worth the time and ammo to set up

[serene stone]

Only when staggered

[dim atlas]

exactly

at which point it'd be better to just SSG ballista combo him

[serene stone]

You can't even kill him when faltering, only glory kill lol

Though there was a mod that made it so you can crucible him during falter

[neat mortar]

You can kill him with the heavy cannon and the ssg in 2 cycles

[serene stone]

Sylar Lock on burst to his back to turn him him around to PB Punch swap him from behind>>>>>

[dim atlas]

why are you so ethusiastic about blood punches

[young mango]

slash cancelling

[serene stone]

Who said blood punch?

[dim atlas]

is a pb punch not a blood punch

[serene stone]

???

[young mango]

just instantly deplete the doom hunters first phase then lock on burst then boom dead

[neat mortar]

its precision bolt

[gray skiff]

yo we talkin about blood punch??

[dim atlas]

precision bolt???????

[gray skiff]

[serene stone]

I said PB Punch swap as in Precision Bolt punch swapping

[neat mortar]

the heavy cannon mod

you can punch to cancel the animation

[dim atlas]

precision bolt on a marauder is actual blasphemy

[serene stone]

You also have to swap to the same weapon while punching

[serene stone]

You have no idea the power of punch swapping haha

[dim atlas]

i'm too busy playing doom eternal like a normal person lol

[serene stone]

Okay?

[neat mortar]

I tested it and the precision bolt with the ssg was more effective than the ballista and the ssg

[dim atlas]

at least with ssg ballista my ballista actually sees some use that isn't arbalest

[dim atlas]

if that's so why have i never heard people say to use ssg pb

[young mango]

people have, it’s just that a lot of people are so inexperienced they don’t know that it’s a good combo

[neat mortar]

with the pb and ssg you can kill the marauder in 2 cycles, with the ballista it takes 3 cycles

[dim atlas]

the difference between 2 cycles and 3 cycles is not that much

just slightly more ammo and time

[young mango]

kinda silly logic, like why get better at the game ever? why do more effective strategies? if you don’t it’s just more ammo and more time

[dim atlas]

well yes but getting bent out of shape about maybe a few seconds of time or a few points of damage is kind of ridiculous

[neat mortar]

This helps if you are at a master level, or when 2 marauders come at once

[serene stone]

Ballista, SSG, Precision Bolt, buffed micro missiles to the ground, lock on burst from behind or lock on burst during one cycles, frag grenades, and Sticky Bombs are all very useful against the Marauder.

Also Sticky Bomb and rocket splash damage to the ground are also pretty good

[dim atlas]

if you're in the ideal range, 1 cycle is like 2-3 seconds

[serene stone]

Blood punch also good when he's faltered, and chaingun shield bashing is broken when he's not blocking

[young mango]

[serene stone]

His name is also whack because he's called Doom Hunter. That sounds like he'd be on the Doom Slayer's side because it's a very similar title.

[neat mortar]

they are much stronger in the boss fight

[dim atlas]

if someones job was 'deer hunter' i don't think you'd assume they're on the deer's side

[serene stone]

If someone's called Doom Slayer, you don't think they'd be on DOOM's side.

If someone's called Doom Hunter, you don't think they'd be on DOOM's side

You're proving my point here lol

Doom Slayer and Doom Hunter both sound like they stop and kill the Doom

[dim atlas]

yes it's just which doom they're referring to

because you've got doomguy, and you've got eternal damnation

[serene stone]

That's exactly why it's a confusing title

I kinda feel like Doom Bringer would have been a better title tbh

[dim atlas]

well yes but it wouldnt be referential to the doom hunter's history

because they used to be an entire species created specificaly to hunt doomguy

it could also be that the name 'doom hunter' is used in reference to the demon's point of view, because doom guy is literally the grim reaper to them

[serene stone]

Ehhh, still not the best title IMO.

[neat mortar]

hell was so desperate to try to stop him that they sent paraplegics to try to stop him

[dim atlas]

lmao

[serene stone]

Also they used to be called Aggadon Hunters, which was already a better name

[dim atlas]

so what the hell are aggadons then

[serene stone]

I think Hunter Reconstructs could have been a dope name

[dim atlas]

doom hunters are more personal because doom is in the name of the protagonist and also the name of the game

[serene stone]

Or Reconstructed Hunters

[dim atlas]

that is actually a really good name holy hell

either way, it's kind of funny in how in the first level they appear in the doom hunter is built up to be this one dude specifically built to kill you (considering you see his construction throughout the level), and then when you defeat him you immediately fight two more lmao

[neat mortar]

Infernal Hunters

[dim atlas]

slayer hunters

[serene stone]

Better than my name IMO

[serene stone]

That could have worked pretty well

[dim atlas]

eternal hunters

[serene stone]

Ehhh

[serene stone]

Tru

[gray skiff]

just rename him GuySlayer, easy fix

[serene stone]

SlayerSlayer

[gray skiff]

what even is this "DOOM" thats being slain/hunted/guyed

cuz his canonical name is Doom Slayer, but the voice memos from the doctor say "He is... DOOM"

how can he be doom but also the slayer of it? does Doom guy have self worth issues or something?

[serene stone]

Exactly. ALL of it is so confusing and whack lol

[inland kite]

ning kovik fr

[proper wing]

Or what if we just put it together and figured:
None of it matters and it’s just a badass name

[regal walrus]

this game is broken

why tf isnt one of the teleporters working in super gore nest

[dim atlas]

wdym

send a video or a screenshot or smth

[regal walrus]

#videos

idk if i got dementia or something, where i need to activate something

but iirc that thing jus opens up

[dim atlas]

yeah you need to go into an open door somewhere in the room, i cant remember where exactly but that should raise the flesh pillar thingies

[young mango]

after killing a few fodder, heavy demons spawn, after killing one heavy demon, the pillars open, either that or you’re softlocked, idk

[serene stone]

Damn. I never actually took the time to admire the aesthetics on the escape part of Super Gore Nest until now

My favorite part is fast traveling to the exit area, than fast traveling to other parts of SGN to see the electricity, green mist, and darkness everywhere

I love seeing the heart squirt blood while the blender spins, and the electricity volting everywhere , and the room is shaking

It's like the coolest thing ever wtf

[serene stone]

Escape sequence in SGN now the best part in DOOM history for this

I take back me saying SGN aesthetics are some of the weakest in the game now

Every time I played the escape sequence, I never fast traveled or took the time to appreciate the views, I would just run to the exit lol

Until now

[dim atlas]

what about the sea lab blowing up in ancient gods 1

that looked fantastic

[serene stone]

Hell yeah. Agreed. I prefer SGN escape though when everything starts having a blue and green mist, darkness, and electricity shooting everywhere with the bleeding heart, blender spinning etc.

But UAC Atlantica Facility is also peak top tier aesthetics

[finite elm]

What’s everyone’s favorite enemy

[serene stone]

Armored Barons are fucking awesome. I love fighting Barons and Tyrants in general

[finite elm]

Idk why but I really like archvile, fun thing to fight and looks amazing imo

Marauder is still one of my favs tho, just his look is all I need, and his gameplay is fun as well

[dim atlas]

what i find neat about the archvile is that the noises it makes sound almost exactly like a higher quality version of the original archvile

but yeah marauder is fun as hell

[regal walrus]

How do people play those arena games?

It's like horde mode but diff in a way

🤔

[dim atlas]

What, you mean battle mode?

[regal walrus]

No

https://youtu.be/Kq4drQf_WlU?si=BF_OPyqHVYdwDY6X

[serene stone]

Do you mean the new DOOM games as opposed to Classic DOOM?

[regal walrus]

Like this dude

[serene stone]

He can be really cool. Though I prefer DOOM II Archvile for some reason

[regal walrus]

At like 0:25

[serene stone]

He's missing the creepy laugh IMO

[regal walrus]

How do u quick switch faster

[violet zealot]

set your weapon wheel delay all the way down if you haven't already
can't give you much more than that because I suck at Eternal and I don't really quick switch that much

at least on console that helps a ton

[young mango]

I also have an unholy amount of hours in this game

[serene stone]

How many hours do y'all have anyway?

For me 1,400 hours in Eternal and 300 hours in 2016

Maybe 200-300 hours in Classic DOOM (1993, II, 64, and custom WADs combined)

[serene stone]

Talking about in every DOOM game that you know or remember your play time with, not just Eternal

Also I have 120 hours into DOOM 3 and the expansions

[young mango]

1716.1 hours in doom eternal
23 hours in doom 2016
7.6 hours in doom 1993
5.8 hours in doom 2
60 minutes in doom 3
13 minutes in doom 64

all of those numbers could be a bit larger, offline mode and whatnot

I think I put a good few hundred hours in doom eternal in offline mode because of speedrunning shenanigans because my DESRU firewall wasn’t working correctly

[cinder pilot]

Hey guys. So I have a question about the Night Sentinels. What's their ranking system like? Is it the same as the Marine Corps?

[austere bronze]

Is is pretty fun to punch swap tho https://youtu.be/UqmHw5_KYyU?si=JKxT1ZaPgHyy2sNY

[lyric lodge]

Clearly youve never seen a pb sticky feet ballista combo on a marauder

[strange gale]

think that's more or less patched out now though, because of the 5.1 pb change where they made it hard falter marauders

[strange gale]

that time stacks up real fast, you'd be surprised

let's say you spend an extra 5 seconds on each heavy/superheavy kill

multiply that by like 30 enemies in said categories

that's an extra 2.5 minutes spent per level, not even considering movement

then multiply that by the number of levels in the base game and oops, that's half an hour you could've spent doing other things

if you include the dlcs and master levels, that's a solid hour in total lost on just being slow with killing enemies

[serene stone]

I think you're talking about the modded Slaughtermaps

It's just mods

[proper wing]

I probably made a bad decision escaping the SGN with 32 seconds left

Maybe coulda killed the 2 Mancubi but ultra violence coulda took more than 32 seconds off me for that

[austere bronze]

Ngl, that vid kinda made me wanna start using lob again, just being able to kill superheavies super quick is quite nice

[proper wing]

lob?

Lock On Burst?

[austere bronze]

Yes

[serene stone]

No, lobster

[proper wing]

Lob uses rockets as ammo, hurling himself at demons like a boomerang at the cost of 5 rockets(I’ve no idea what the maximum amount of rockets is with 4 ammo upgrades) per use
Mods are Damned in Particular and Conserved Explosions

So basically the equivalent of the BFG and Unmaykr

[hasty wolf]

day 3 of asking help how to fix my doom

[silver jewel]

what

[pearl viper]

Open task manager and monitor what happens when it crashes.

btw you're on day 10, not day 3

[hasty wolf]

how do i monitor

i am actually stupid

[pearl viper]

Monitor just means watch the performance tab and screenshot it when the game crashes.

ugh, forgot that I can't upload images here

[hasty wolf]

well uh

gpu 3d is max

[pearl viper]

If you're on windows 11, you'll want the tab that shows all the graphs

[hasty wolf]

when it crashes

[pearl viper]

you just need to watch the overall stuff and take note of what happens during. Like are there any sudden drop-offs in a certain graph first or spikes before a crash.

[hasty wolf]

disk 0 (c) is max when it crashes

no other drop offs or smth

[pearl viper]

Then it just drops to nothing?

[hasty wolf]

yes

[pearl viper]

Can you get into video settings?

[hasty wolf]

no

[pearl viper]

It crashes before then?

[hasty wolf]

it crashes randomly. now it crashed when i clicked

usually it crashes when i get into video settings

[pearl viper]

Would you happen to have a new GPU?

Also, what are the specs of your computer?

[hasty wolf]

it is AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor

[pearl viper]

how much ram?

[hasty wolf]

16 gb

if problem was in my pc then why it doesn't happen to doom 2016

[pearl viper]

Just making sure it wasn't something like that

I'm guessing also you have an AMD GPU.

[hasty wolf]

yep

[pearl viper]

So I think you can try 2 things here:

1. Find the game files and the config file that you can open up in notepad and change the game's window mode to full screen, borderless, or windowed mode and see if the crashing happens on any of those
2. Reinstall the game
   on the first one, I managed to fix Doom 3BFG by opening up it's config files because it crashes on full screen on my laptop but oddly works in windowed mode.

[hasty wolf]

thank you i will tell if this helps

[pearl viper]

Glad to help ^^

[hasty wolf]

btw reinstalling didn't help

[pearl viper]

I'll be here, but I might be slow responding

[loud geyser]

who can give me tips on how to bat the heart radiation

beat

[pearl viper]

Super Gore Nest?

[loud geyser]

yea when you activate the heart am stuck at the part where 2 mancubases are

[pearl viper]

Just run past them

[loud geyser]

dash?

[pearl viper]

They won't follow

[loud geyser]

ok

selestial wanna friend and call

[pearl viper]

I'm sorry, I don't allow friend requests :p

[azure oriole]

Step 1: Take a 3 month break

Step 2: clutch the whole level

That’s what I did 🙂

[pearl viper]

I found something that might help and you can undo it if it doesn't work. someone posted this for the Steam version:
``Yes, go to your library, right click on the game, go to properties, set launch options, and type "-safe" without the quotations.

That should start the game up with everything turned to low and or disabled.``

[hasty wolf]

alr

Didn't help

[pearl viper]

What kind of monitor are you using and what resolution is it?

[hasty wolf]

idk it is some samsung monitor it is 1920x1080

[pearl viper]

Right click on your desktop and go to display settings and make sure that you're running in 1080p there.

[hasty wolf]

yep

[pearl viper]

I'm looking for a code you can paste into the steam startup field

Do you have AMD app?

[knotty raptor]

Can you edit the console and play left handed like in CS go?
