doom-eternal

[austere bronze]

and had a lot to say lmao

[azure oriole]

I have like 1000+ hours in the game and I couldnt beat 100 barons vs 1 slayer buffed mode

im still trash at this game

cultist base second secret encounter was the bane of my existence

Honestly that one is a godsend for un 100% because of the pain elemental gk challenge

[burnt moss]

The other more accurate ways to determine credibility are harder to apply objectively. For example, I agree that overall experience with gaming gives one credibility but how could we measure that? Odds are I haven’t played the other games so I can’t determine whether they adequately negate the “skill issue” and lack of experience that would devalidate a lot of game design complaints.

[young mango]

Ghost chainsaw….

[austere bronze]

it is completely useless to quantify some arbitrary credibility

judge the opinion; not the character

[worn terrace]

Atlantica today, blood swamps tommorrow, holt on sunday

one level/day till tda. Getting close

World Spear mon, Reclaimed Earth tues, Immora wed.

[twin gale]

5 more days until the game comes out

and the weekends gonna go by in the blink of an eye so its really 3

[alpine mortar]

New trailer out letsgo

[woven moth]

Doomz

[placid pumice]

All on UN?

[brittle silo]

Hey everyone with the new doom game coming out i decided to play eternal and realized I never finished getting all the achievements and right now I’m trying to get the multiplayer one was I was wondering if some can help with that?

[twin gale]

fr?

[alpine mortar]

Yes it's amazing

Even the IGN review came out but spoiler warning tho

[stone spear]

What are some good and niche strategies that you’ve made or found?

[lethal ibex]

Super shotgun.
Combat shotgun.
Chainsaw.

[stone spear]

I’ll have to try, thanks

[worn terrace]

no, this is one level a day thing ive been doing since jan 23

[austere bronze]

some strategies i rarely see implemented (while not being super hard to pull off) is:
silent mod swapping, this is a way to swap mods without watching the animation. it's on the same level as mod swap cancelling, but much less used
full auto as a finisher on demons for free shells
using the meathook multiple times before touching the ground
dashing into certain fodder demons with the shield to gain immense speed
remote detonation as a means of crowd control

[strange gale]

i wonder if there's a way to interrupt the tda shield lunge

the dash could just be a sync anim in which case i'm not sure that would be useful

[young mango]

I will dissect that game instantly after my first playthrough

But lunges also probably mean punch boost - esque mechanics

[strange gale]

true

yeah i was thinking it could be a pboost equivalent

lurch hopping might've made it in

calling it now, shield dash can be interrupted by weird geo just like de's melee lunge

[stone spear]

I’ll keep this in mind, you sound like Under The Mayo, with the full auto finisher

[young mango]

both 2016 and eternal had some form of BATS so TDA might have it as well

[strange gale]

block canceling maybe?

there's also a bind later on for switching between variants of the same weapon class

assuming there's some interruptable flags for that to synergize with

[young mango]

It’s interesting playing bingo with the possible TDA speed tech, but I’m really curious about the stuff that we’ve yet to see

There’s most definitely going to be glitches here that didn’t exist in any form in 2016 or eternal and that’s another can of worms

[strange gale]

75 or so hours until ea launch

[young mango]

I didn’t get ea I got standard edition

but it’ll still be interesting

[strange gale]

😢

if blocking/parrying is built on the quick melee logic in de and it technically switches you to another weapon, there could be a punchswap equivalent in tda

[night rock]

@azure oriole I keep thinking : how is it the same hell for all DOOM games ? I mean, we kill the icon of sin at the end of DOOM II but it was already dead in 2016 and if I'm not wrong, it says it died before it got killed in DOOM II, then killed again in DOOM II, then killed again in Eternal ?

[strange gale]

shoot -> hold block -> switch variant or to another weapon to cancel block animation -> repeat?

[young mango]

Imagine if they forgot to put a limit on jump extensions again

[azure oriole]

We kill the Icon in DOOM II, it is resurrected via Valen's son in the Argenta lore, then we kill it again in Eternal.

[strange gale]

i'm guessing they removed lurching entirely in favor of the landing shockwave

🫡 if so

[young mango]

Rip

[night rock]

Oh so the icon already existed ? I though it was the son himself ?

[azure oriole]

No, the Icon was a demon given life by Valen's son. We effectively kill the son by stabbing the heart in the Urdak level, and as we see, it does not kill the Icon but instead sets it loose.

[night rock]

But you said we first killed it in DOOM II. So the icon already exist, then died, then got revived with Valen's son, then killed again before 2016 then revived again by the Maykrs, then killed again ?

[azure oriole]

According to the Codex in 2016, the Icon in Necropolis would be dormant rather than dead.

The Codex says it will wake up during some cataclysm I forget the name of.

[lethal ibex]

Controversial opinion:
"Fifty shades of slay" is the best book that every existed.

[pseudo forge]

Hey guys is it just me or does the dlc actually kinda suck

im playing through part 1 for the first time and its so frustrating and long

[gritty mica]

The second part is a little better

[pseudo forge]

alr thats good

hope dark age missions arent this long lol. I heard they found the best length for mission lengths

[gritty mica]

I think it's supposed to be longer than eternal

[pseudo forge]

the mission lengths or game itself

[gritty mica]

I think the game

[pseudo forge]

im fine if the game is long just not have it drag out the missions

[graceful current]

It’s dormant during Eternal too isn’t it?

Like it only wakes up after Doomguy stabs the heart

At least that was the vibe I sort of got

[azure oriole]

It's not really clear. 2016 presents the Icon like it's genuinely dormant, like sleeping, but the way it depicts it in Eternal gives me the vibe that it's "awake," but restrained by the Maykrs somehow.

I wish they'd elaborate on how long the Maykrs had the Icon and how they got it to begin with.

Did Hell just hand it over? "Hey I know he's your mega-nuke but we'll give him some fancy armor"?

[graceful current]

I imagine they stole it near the beginning of the invasion?

They built armour for it right

[azure oriole]

Yeah, it's definitely Maykr armor.

[graceful current]

Wait at what point does the Khan say she’s gonna resurrect it

[azure oriole]

When you kill Deag Grav.

[graceful current]

uuuhhh that’s the gladiator Feller right

the dude after that fight

i forget those 3’s names often

[azure oriole]

Yes.

[night rock]

Well his face looks kinda dead + it can just be a prophesy to what will happen in Eternal

[azure oriole]

The Khan is outright commanding Hell's armies during Eternal. She's acting as, like, a substitute Dark Lord or something. Eternal never makes reference to a Dark Lord during its events (beyond Davoth), and the Khan clearly has authority over them.
So maybe she just was like, gimme the big dude, and they said sure.

[graceful current]

I suppoooose they probably just grabbed him then?

[graceful current]

Eternal is kind of weird about the dark lord

Idk following on from 2016’s insistence there are multiple and then having The Dark Lord I get that it still makes sense it just feels weird

[azure oriole]

With the implication that the death of a Dark Lord means a new age begins, Eternal would naturally have a Dark Lord of the Fifth Age. But they never reference one, and I suspect the reason is that the Aranea Imperatrix was supposed to lead Hell's armies to invade Earth, and when it died, Hell had to scramble for a new leader and the Khan stepped in.

[graceful current]

also would the other demonic life spheres be like. The Dread Widow and stuff. In TAG

[graceful current]

Yeah that makes sense

[azure oriole]

I fucking hate GIFs being blocked. That was a good one too.

[graceful current]

:(

If that one 2016 prerelease tumblr post wasn’t cap I wish some of that codex stuff was left in

The Chimera stuff

Then we’d have a Dark Lord for each age

otherwise rn we just have to assume the grand serpent and guardian are dark lords right?

[twin gale]

i know this is a stupid question but is there a lore reason why marauders cant walk up stairs

[azure oriole]

Can't even assume that, really. The Grand Serpent definitely wasn't, because it was revolting, implying there was a Dark Lord to revolt against.

As far as the Guardian goes, uh, maybe? 2016 calling it the Guardian gave me the impression they were referencing the boss of the same name in Doom 3.

[graceful current]

I thought that myself

Though weirdly there’s actually two Guardians in Doom 3

[graceful current]

Are you aware of the “Chimera” stuff btw

[azure oriole]

Ugh, don't remind me.

[azure oriole]

Vaguely, read it a long time ago but haven't revisited the older 2016 stuff since.

It was interesting and I agree that I wish some of it had stayed.

[graceful current]

In my opinion it would’ve basically confirmed “Doom 3” is the Third Age

Like… CHIMERA is the dark Lord of it??? You mean a hybrid fire breathing beast???? The Maledict????

[azure oriole]

Yeah lol.

[graceful current]

Chimera was the first Dark Lord to have sent out the new Hell Knights??!??

[azure oriole]

I would kill to find the Codex entries they had for the Cultist Zombies and Kalibas, BTW. Super irritating, those.

A fucked up thing is the whole Deagic Talisman thing. An unused Codex entry is what expands on these, and you can find a transcript of it online if you dig, but what I can't find is the actual source that this was, in fact, a real Codex entry.

[graceful current]

I think they just didn’t write one for Kalibas

Or it’s the segment that’s in another entry

[graceful current]

😭 ugh

why wouldn’t you leave that in the gameee

[placid pumice]

Ah okay

But one level a day meaning what?

Like just finish it or try to finish it on a specific hard difficulty?

[worn terrace]

One doom level per day until dark ages releases, ive been doing it since classic (but had to do more than one because release window) Classic Doom, Doom 64, doom 3 ect

so soundtrack, how do i get it? Ive found some MP3s but I want to know if there is a official non official list. I own the CE edition and I am not sure how to get it off this cassette

But, it seems the Mars Core mp3 is missing the second half

[woven moth]

Howdy

[tardy pier]

Is the faster glory kills(savagery) used for just aura farming and looking cool rather than being practical

I feel like shortening your only grace period in a chaotic fight with a stuffed animation is odd

[burnt moss]

I could be wrong but I think it helps you not get surrounded mid-gk

[graceful current]

you wont be surrounded by enemies

[tardy pier]

Wouldn’t you just use glory kill speed bonus instead

I feel like it does the same thing but better if that’s its use

[graceful current]

the enemies will still surround you while you're doing it with that

[tardy pier]

Yeah but you’ll be able to dart out

It’s not even a problem anymore

The speed bonus it gives is unironically comical

That plus the dashes you naturally get from gk’s, if you have awareness on the weakest target surrounding you then I don’t see a stand out use for it

[burnt moss]

Well you’ve identified why it’s not the best use of a slot. But not getting surrounded in the first place does have a use.

[azure oriole]

health + 20 armor if you hook into a staggered demon with the savagery rune

also it gets boring to see the same gk animation again and again

[young mango]

Airborne tyrant GK:

[azure oriole]

yeah except for some gk that take too long

[young mango]

Shits sooo long man, without savagery the normal GK with last longer than the flame belch duration

[azure oriole]

same for the pain elemental front gk

I wish savagery worked with chainsaw kills

So funny that it's a thing in battlemode but not the campaign

[azure oriole]

dread knight berserk makes that upgrade useless

it also used to give you more ammo

[minor ridge]

Speaking of battlemode, I am once again asking for help getting That Escalated Quickly on PS5.

[red bluff]

I've been going through Battlemode trying to get the trophies on PS5

[austere bronze]

savagery has great practical applications and utility outside of easing the annoyance of GKs

glory killing is bad for your positioning relative to enemies. not only do you give enemies the time to surround you, but they're also allowed to repositioning to new areas without you knowing it. savagery alleviates this.

meathook->GK is a very good restacking method as it grants you health and armor, it also shortens the flame belch cooldown if you use equipment fiend (very good rune). savagery makes this much more consistent, as without it you'll often not get armor and reduce the flame belch cooldown.

blood fueled (speed bonus rune) isn't that good if you actively use many of the movement tools. if you're on the ground, you should either be single dashing where base walking speed isn't that relevant, or you'll be ballista boosting where it's even less relevant. in the air it got no utility at all

[polar osprey]

"yo dave, you go behind him, ill go to the side, then we start blasting once he stops killing that tyrant"

[austere bronze]

lol, exactly

[alpine mortar]

@azure oriole why does the praitor suit receive so many changes over the games ? Is it a lore thing or just game design ?

[polar osprey]

the doom tda suit is a different one from the praetor suit we have now

the 2016 suit is the one given by the wretch

but its because doomguy makes changes to it when he can

[alpine mortar]

Big brain

[solar bane]

Hi guys does anyone wanna help me with doom eternal multiplayer trophy’s on ps5? I got everything apart from them! Let me know if you can and dm me

[foggy shoal]

Yo I need the trophies too

[carmine cypress]

yeah im pretty hardstuck on final room in reclaimed earth on nightmare

way harder than any of the other dlc rooms tbh

[silent sapphire]

I finally learned to quick swap

Its a bit hard to do cause my hands are small but im learning

[ionic marsh]

hello there, is this the right chat to ask for help with my crash while starting doom eternal with mods?

[placid pumice]

So you just play a level and after that’s it?

By level you mean a mission or something more interesting?

Like you’re trying to beat a level of every doom game that’s all?

[polar osprey]

mission

[tardy pier]

So player convenience(subjective), a problem that both runes solve and an esoteric situation. The surrounding issue still isn’t convincing me. If you initiate a glory kill where you know you’re going to get surrounded, I believe you could have prevented it by just not using the gk OR by using the million other things that get you out of the situation (freeze nade, blood punch, shield, literally knowing the weakest target next to you and one tapping them ect).

[placid pumice]

Ah okay

[tardy pier]

And blood fuel is useful, even if you’re not in the ground. Blood fueled is only really useless if you literally don’t move whatsoever, it’s active in the air, the millisecond after your dash and everywhere else. Most movement options don’t take that long regardless (longest one I’d debate is a meat hook, which usually you use to get a gk as you just said. So it’s 30 armor or a great boost of speed)

[tame topaz]

I run Savagery so I can get the armor bonus after a meathook.

[austere bronze]

the surrounding factor is admittedly one of the weaker points, more importan is the demon's repositioning

but what truly makes it shine is meathook->GK for free armor and shortened flame belch cooldown

[static goblet]

what are some good keybinds for quick swapping techs and punch swapping?

[austere bronze]

these are all my binds:
rocket launcher: Q
heavy cannon: E
plasma rifle: 2
combat shotgun: V
SSG: T
ballista: TAB
chaingun: 1
BFG: 4

melee: F
swap weapon mod: G/CAPS
launch grenade: LCTRL
switch grenade: unbound
dash: LSHIFT
jump: space/mouse down
chainsaw: X
crucible/hammer: unbound

if you have mouse side buttons, it's probably a good idea to use them

i have them, but don't wanna use them

nup

nah, only frags for me

i also don't use the bfg

but i got it bound iirc

[burnt moss]

Not even in TAG2? It’s OP against Davoth

[austere bronze]

i only played the davoth bossfight once

[twin gale]

why skip 3 and go to 4

[austere bronze]

less chance of equipping it

[gentle idol]

Can I unlock battlemode achievements by playing Private matches?

[azure oriole]

Probably both. And what Richter said. 2016's suit is separate from TDA's. Eternal's was made from 2016's parts.

[visual hornet]

Do any of yall also own most of the doom mini figures irl?

@everyone

[twin gale]

i dont think ive ever gotten any physical merch for a game

besides minecraft lego sets if you count those

[visual hornet]

Haha, that's fair

I haven't either except doom and halo

[digital flare]

I really HATE the dark lord boss fight

[burnt moss]

Too many phases

[digital flare]

Yes

And the mother***** never gets green for me to attack

He invokes that huge demons, throws millions of wolves on me, but NEVER gets green

And when he finally does, it's when I already used the hammer to survive the huge demons...

Do you have any tip for me?

[subtle idol]

They should add Doom 64, Doom 3, and Doom dark ages skins to doom eternal

[twin gale]

as s

i didnt come close to pressing the send button

as soon as you use a hammer charge quit focusing on the dark lord and go get glory kills to refill it and your health and armor as well and your ammo if needed but remember to listen for when he does his shield charge attack

if you ever get close to low health then feel free to go around and glory kill zombies because his turret attack isnt that accurate as long as you stay moveing

if he sends dogs while you're glory killing zombies then just pb+ballista those and the hell knight

[digital flare]

I got to the final stage and the game crashed...

[digital flare]

I'll try

[digital flare]

Now I have to redo the penultimate phase

Finally I did it

Nice ending, didn't get it though

What happened to Slayer?

[gentle idol]

I need help with getting 100% trophies on Eternal. I need help with the battlemode achievements

[round peak]

Me too

[gentle idol]

Which platform are you on?

[round peak]

Ps5

[gentle idol]

Damnn, I am on steam. If only this game had cross platform

[round peak]

Oh... 😩

Im to hyped for the dark agesssss

I have platinum om eternal

[hardy nova]

I have a problem, I did every single Slayer Gates but didn't get the Empyrean Key from the first 2 now I can't do them again and I'm missing 2 what do I do?

[twin gale]

he lost davoth's power since davoth is no more and now he's back to himself from the classic games and is being stored in a coffin until he is once again needed

[lilac garden]

yall got any tips for DE ultra nightmare after the earlygame i just beat doom hunter base

[tawdry glacier]

please help me push my last achievemnt on battlemode on pc doom eternal i need one player

[brittle silo]

Do you have cheats on

[tawdry glacier]

please guys i try for so long

[trim plaza]

Is Doom Eternal?

[twin gale]

i'd say doom is quake 3 arena

[minor ridge]

Anyone on ps5 want to help with mp?

[tardy pier]

I’m supprised infinite ammo was added but not blood punch

[azure oriole]

they removed the ability of infinite crucible with the cheat

[young mango]

That got removed pretty early on

[minor ridge]

What'd they do that for? You're only allowed to cheat on missions you already beat, and you're not allowed to do slayer gates with cheats on.

[azure oriole]

ids dumb decisions

[minor ridge]

Ooo...fair enough.

[ashen moss]

been playing since 2020 and im gonna do my first ever 100% nightmare run before TDA

[west thorn]

black screen in discord on stream -_-

[sinful cliff]

It’s crazy how bad I used to be at this game… still not good but I’ve improved a lot

Ran through TAG first level and didn’t have much of a problem and I remember getting bodied

[worn terrace]

playing through Doom Eternal for the first time on console ... now i know why some players hate fps platforming

[silent sapphire]

Guys any tips for quick swapping on keyboard

[violet zealot]

just move all your weapon binds close to WASD

maybe some on your mouse

[calm pulsar]

Gng can someone help me get all trophies on battle mode? I’ll help u if u want. This the last trophies for plantinum. I’m tryna clean all of eternal up before dark ages. Anyways, have a great day. Ur goated g

[minor ridge]

Rigger, are you on PS5?

[viral ridge]

Yo am at the mars core, how far am i

[minor ridge]

I'd say about halfway.

[viral ridge]

Mkay

BTW If I missed a collectible, that means I have to redo the full mission or what???

I guess that is why I didn't play it for 5 years ...

[silent sapphire]

I mean the numbers are neae

[minor ridge]

You only have to redo the mission up to the point you missed it. Once you collect it you can exit.

If you're still on the mission, near the emd of the mission, you'll get a fast travel option to go to other parts of the stage so you can pick up stuff you missed.

Also, on mission select, you can activate cheats you've collected to make replaying a mission faster and easier.

[viral ridge]

Well shiet, so missing something near the end really does mean I have to redo it full

I remember it correctly then somehow

I hate that :/

[viral ridge]

Cheat = your progess with collectibles doesn't save

[minor ridge]

No, it does.

Only thing you can't do with cheats is the Slayer gates.

[viral ridge]

[minor ridge]

Rverything else you can get with cheats on.

[viral ridge]

Why they didn't make fast travel unlock from the start man ...

These should not make collectibles tedious :/

[minor ridge]

Because some levels have you revisit parts at different times.

Fast travel would mess things up on playthrough.

They have to make sure you get to an area when you're supposed to.

[viral ridge]

So multiple checkpoints where you can start the mission would've fixed it, anyways its fine amma speedrun them I guess ...

[minor ridge]

Or else hub area won't know whether to act like you're visiting it for the first or second or third time.

[viral ridge]

Why This Matters:
Using cheats (like Infinite Lives or All Runes) makes the mission easier, but the game disables progress tracking for balance.
If you're just exploring or practicing, cheats are fine.
But if you're trying to complete for Platinum Trophy / 100% or unlock skins/upgrades: no cheats allowed for that run.

This is what GPT tells me also

[minor ridge]

GPT is wrong.

[viral ridge]

[young mango]

Dude do you use GPT for everything

[viral ridge]

I actually trust you more lmao

[minor ridge]

Only thing cheats block you out of is slayer gates.

[viral ridge]

Yes, it makes my life much easier

[young mango]

It’s an unreliable source for any information beyond broad strokes, and even then has its faults

[viral ridge]

Oh shiet, even if I 100% the main game I forgot there is also the DLCs ...

Man it'll probably take 2 long to do all that

I guess I really won't be playing the dark ages any time soon :(

[minor ridge]

You can just play through them without collecting everything.

[viral ridge]

I did the online achievements at least

Nah if I did that then the chances of me getting back to 100% will be very low

[minor ridge]

You wouldn't be able to git gud enough to beat Ultra Nightmare within the next couple of days anyway, and that's necessary for platinum.

[viral ridge]

WAIT WHAT

I don't think I need to do that

[minor ridge]

For platinum you do.

[young mango]

That doesn’t count towards achievements, it does towards eternals in-game achievements though

[viral ridge]

Good

Good, all the guides online say you don't

[minor ridge]

Oh, wait, you're right.

Weird. I platinumed and I could have sworn that was one of the things I had to do for it.

I paid more attention to milestones than trophies.

Speaking of, anybody on ps5 wanna help me get that escalated quickly on mp? That doesnt seem like something that will ever happen without boosting.

[viral ridge]

Hmmm, anyways I will go back to playing Khazan for now I guess, I'll miss out on The dark ages for a while ...

[minor ridge]

Dark Ages is a prequel anyway. You don't need to know Eternal's story.

[viral ridge]

80$ is 2 high as well, I will get with the next big discount I believe

Unless there is an insane amount of online achievements which IK I need to get ASAP

[minor ridge]

Someone told me Dark Ages doesn't have online trophies.

[azure oriole]

Well it doesn't have multiplayer

[viral ridge]

So good :)

Am lucky then lmao

[bitter delta]

Hi im new

[novel token]

Hi new, Im Larry

[bitter delta]

Why'd you name me this way? Why why

why

[wide merlin]

That's because ID Software wants to focus on making Doom The Dark Ages the best single-player experience.

If not, one of the best single-player experiences.

No need to shoehorn in a multiplayer mode.

[azure oriole]

Thank you game man

[twin gale]

quake is the true id multiplayer series

always been their most popular game series deathmatch wise

[wide merlin]

Understandable, but id Software will then have to constantly keep updating the multiplayer with new content. And I bet Bethesda will shoehorn in microstransactions.

Meaning that they wouldn't be able to spend their time and effort on the single-player campaign.

[twin gale]

2016 remaster

it already looks amazing why would it need that

i dont think i will

[minor ridge]

Qneed one more guy on ps5 to help me with multiplayer stuff.

[arctic cobalt]

sup everyone. does anyone know how to fix black screen issue after the intro ends in eternal?

im on pc i hear the menu music but i get black screen

[bleak shadow]

Im ready for the dark ages with gamepass in wednesday greetings for Mexico

[minor ridge]

By intro do you mean like, the Bethesda logo and such, or the opening cytscene?

[arctic cobalt]

yes porken

bethesda logo

id etc..

[bleak shadow]

Saben hablar español

???

[minor ridge]

Aiden, Google "black screen doom eternal pc" and you should get a link to Bethesda tech support about it.

I tried to post links myself, but Vega won't let me.

[gentle idol]

That's amazing

[gentle idol]

Hey I am up for it. Which achievement do you need

[arctic cobalt]

tried all of those,didnt work

[twin gale]

i thought you was talkin to me for a second bruh i was boutta be like "whn did i say anything about a black screen"

[hard garnet]

I just got Eternal and finished the first couple Missions, is there something like a training mode ?

Similar to that Room down that elevator in the Man cave

[hard garnet]

Unfortunately you cannot use that room infinitely

[polar osprey]

nope, you train along the way!

[hard garnet]

I already kinda struggle with medium (or whatever it's called in doom language) that's why i was asking. But i found a build i'll be sticking with, already getting better

[polar osprey]

ultra violence?

[hard garnet]

im a** in general when it comes to shooter

[polar osprey]

theres easy (im too young to die)
normal (hurt me plenty)
hard (ultra violence)
expert (nightmare)
hardcore (ultra nightmare)

[hard garnet]

ah ok, im on hurt me plenty

[polar osprey]

hurt me plenty has enemies dealing 70% of their damage

intended doom experience afaik

[hard garnet]

oh ok, so i'll switch to hard then probably

[polar osprey]

you can and will feel the difference

extra damage isnt the only difference

[hard garnet]

so i guess hp and maybe enemy movement ?

[polar osprey]

enemies are more aggressive, their attacks are more accurate, more enemies can attack you at once

[hard garnet]

oof

i'll see

[polar osprey]

on expert some attacks are practically fucking hitscan

[hard garnet]

I love how doom slayer just has doom mp.3s on his desktop

[polar osprey]

hes got doom 1 and 2 on that old computer

you can play doom 1 and 2 on eternal

whole thing

[next adder]

Nothing is more fun than using the infinite ammo cheat code and going ham with the full auto shotgun

[bold phoenix]

I am going to start tweaking because of the destroy the father’s life sphere second trial thing

I hate this arena. I hate tyrants. I hate this stupid ghost and I hate that no matter how far I get into this fight if I die, even once it’s straight back to square one.

[bold phoenix]

I will persist after a much needed break

[azure oriole]

single player is aids

play svs instead

[alpine mortar]

Why does nekravol ambience sound so fucking good

[torn copper]

Why does the music gets muffled while you're in Low Health state?

[polar osprey]

when you are on the brink of death, you will not feel good at all

would be the same irl too tbh, so its like "oh shit the slayer is nearly dead" or something, feels more immersive

gives you more mental clarity since you hear less and can lock in harder

[strange gale]

idk about that

your screen gets borderline covered in blood and a low health notification, and your ears get blasted by a low health siren

[polar osprey]

but after it

not the instant it happens bro

[strange gale]

not dying is already enough of an incentive to fix my shit

all the other stuff makes it harder to tell wtf is happening

[austere bronze]

low health DeCrapifier mod❤️

[azure oriole]

but there's a pinky charging right behind you

[strange gale]

same thing with the low ammo notif & sound, they're unnecessary audiovisual noise

so are the dash lines

there's so much shit on screen that doesn't need to be

[azure oriole]

ac noise

[strange gale]

true

tda needs a decrapifier mod stat ‼️

[flint warren]

does the big ass hammer interact with grenade falter?

(currently trying world spear ML UN)

[austere bronze]

what do you mean?

every demon hit by the hammer will be stunned

[polar osprey]

i think he thinks that using the grenade during hammer falter or vice versa will make the falter longer

[flint warren]

yea it says that it extends/boosts equipment and only mentions flame belch and ice grenade

[strange gale]

hammer stun is in a somewhat unique category, it overrides any falter that wasn't triggered by a beam (mwb, bfg)

beam stuns are always the highest priority

it also can't be overridden by anything other than a beam stun, so you need to wait out the hammer before using other falter options

remote detonate/blood punch -> hammer works but hammer -> remote detonate/blood punch doesn't

[lone igloo]

or hammer -> frag grenade -> ice bomb -> blood punch/wth health drops rune

[strange gale]

at that point you might as well not use the hammer or frag

if you do things in that order the stun and frag falter get completely wasted

[lone igloo]

ok I get it

[strange gale]

it takes me like 200ms glance at the bottom right of my screen and read what's there

this isn't a tac shooter

looking away for 1/5 of a second will never kill you

measure 200ms on a stopwatch and think about that for a bit

it's really not

[polar osprey]

hammer frag ice flame belch bp

[strange gale]

here's an example: both of the marauder's melee attacks have 35 frames (60fps frame data) or 560ms of startup

[polar osprey]

you destroy everything, you do multiple bps, and you recharge hp and armor

[strange gale]

you could glance at your ammo on the first frame of a marauder's swing and still have 360ms left over to react

[lone igloo]

i just realised

there's no point killing heavy demons for ammo

Just kill zombies, and you'll get the same amount

with 1/3 of the price

[uneven garnet]

I want to see a fan-art of Doom Slayer swimming underwater in the first level of Ancient Gods Part 1 with Isabelle on his head, puffing her cheeks out as she holds her breath underwater.

[polar osprey]

"fuck that guy in particular"

[silent sapphire]

Guys i might get the dark ages on steam on launch wish me luck cuz i wanna get it so i hope my dad says yes

[rose sparrow]

How do people get so fast in doom eternal like I see people run faster than normal speeds

[twin gale]

you cant run faster than the normal speed without a mod or the overdrive powerup its probably just an illusion since they swing around in the air

or they might ballista boost and then bhop

[wanton atlas]

This ^ plus it’s the wider FOV that makes it seem faster than it is.

[pseudo forge]

Are all levels in part 2 as long as the first mission? Cuz god damn that was a long mission

[young mango]

Blood fueled

[azure oriole]

Not really

[young mango]

Reclaimed is short asf

[tardy pier]

Dread knight is so busted in battlemode dude

[pseudo forge]

Ik right he’s always been my main

[austere bronze]

probably bhops

[narrow epoch]

Yall what's your favorite slayer skin?

[austere bronze]

patriot

[keen torrent]

Need help for achievement online

[narrow epoch]

For me, the D64 skin

[carmine cypress]

holy shit

i finally did it
i beat reclaimed earth on nightmare
that last room was easily the hardest in the game

even with using the unmakyr that shit was tough

finally i can do immora

never actually played this level

[flint warren]

as in it overrides grenade falter without extra benefits? just grenade falter>hammer stun?

[strange gale]

that sounds right yeah

it cancels the grenade falter and puts the target into hammer stun instead so it would make sense to delay hammering until the end of the grenade falter

but this is theoretical minmaxing and i'm reluctant to believe that would be anything other than diminishing returns

[terse solar]

i wonder if the slayer plays his own soundtracks in his helmet while killing

[winter fern]

Probably

The Fortress of Doom is such funny characterization for the Slayer

[terse solar]

yeah, he has guitars so its possible

[winter fern]

When he emotes with the toys? Peak.

[terse solar]

and hes a gamer too

[winter fern]

I saw a TDA clip of him flying the toy dragon through the air

[terse solar]

he just like us fr

[winter fern]

There's a blurry line between silent protagonist that is interesting and one who's just a boring piece of wood

[polar osprey]

yeah, and in this game they show us his normal fucking eyes a bunch, like maykr control vs no maykr control, and he has them human puppy eyes that make him look, human

he just feels relatable instead of just being "rip and tear kill demons rahh"

[twin gale]

the slayer being a guitarist is so tuff

he probably couldve played at lightning speed with the divinity machine powers

[carmine cypress]

i did it just in time for dark ages
i beat dlc 2 on nightmare

wow yeah what a shitty final boss
'

its literally just
awkwardly stay close to him and pray he does the green attack

then hammer
repeat

[young mango]

Yeah

[carmine cypress]

and getting the green attack feels totally rng

the marauder is pretty consistent

dark lord aint so

[somber canopy]

Kinda regretting putting off these battle mode achievements.

[idle crypt]

Anyone wanna do mp on 2016 for achievements?

[digital flare]

Best skin for Slayer in your opinion?

[frail timber]

Zombie slayer

I'm on mars core in the campaign right now

[digital flare]

Cool

I'm starting a new save right now

[frail timber]

Nice

Whats your least favorite demon

[idle crypt]

Doom 2016 mp anyone?

[twin gale]

i know you didnt ask me but the worst demon is the carcass

it does nothing but ruin your day

[frail timber]

In my opinion it's pinky

Its just annoying to kill

[sinful cliff]

Carcass

Pinky is super annoying though I agree

[azure oriole]

wrong channel

[frail timber]

I just got to sentinel prime

[azure oriole]

@twin gale The worst demon is obviously mancubus

[twin gale]

why do you say that

[azure oriole]

High health, close and long range attack, and they're fast

[twin gale]

there are quite a bit of easy ways to take them out but yeah their damage output is pretty high

[azure oriole]

Yeah

Plasma rifle works

[twin gale]

im boutta start a new nightmare playthrough of the base campaign

[azure oriole]

Bro I'm on hmp

I suck

[twin gale]

if i can do tag2 with only 6 deaths then surely i can do the campaign

surely…

[twin gale]

well imagine hurt me plenty but demons are a lot more accurate and deal 2.3x more damage

[azure oriole]

Bro idk anything about stats and shortcuts

I js play cause it's fun to rip and tear

[twin gale]

shortcuts are only for speedruns

[azure oriole]

Ik

[twin gale]

welp one day you'll be able to play nightmare just gotta give it practice

[azure oriole]

Yeah

[woven moth]

Wraiths

[digital flare]

Forgot it's name, it's that one who gives shield to the others

[frail timber]

Its called a carcess

[digital flare]

Not hard to kill, it's just annoying how sometimes that stupid demon can really get in the way

[frail timber]

Yea

[digital flare]

I just finished mission 2 while collecting all the collectables

[woven moth]

Hot

[digital flare]

I noticed the music in the main campaign is louder and heavier than in Ancient Gods

I could barely hear something in AG

[minor ridge]

Main campaign was done by Mick Gordon.

Someone at Bethesda treated Mick like shit or something, though, so he quit and the Docs were done by someone else.

[digital flare]

Damn, that sucks

[graceful current]

thats not the issue tho

the issue is that the sound mixing for tag is so ass and theres numerous sound glitches

[digital flare]

I know Mick Gordon from other games, he always makes awesome tracks

[digital flare]

That actually explains a lot of things as well

[graceful current]

like for example the maligog boxes are inexplicably at max volume and you cant change that

and also the maligog fight starts a constant popping droning noise that lowers the volume of the music that will happen INFINITELY unless you close and reopen the game once you reach The Holt

i have literally 0 clue how either of these bugs occurred

for tag i put the sfx at 30 and the music at 100 lol

[minor ridge]

Anybody on PS5 wanna boost multiplayer milestones?

[pearl viper]

Was there an update for Doom Eternal? I have my grenade switch key as TAB and it frequently stops working now so I have to restart the game

Trying to go through hoard mode and I've had to restart the game like 12 times now

Definitely something wrong. Halfway through the first hoard round, the input just stopped switching and I was stuck with ice bombs

[minor ridge]

Maybe it's your tab key?

[graceful current]

Do you alt tab frequently?

I find that breaks my tab input on Eternal quite often.

[pearl viper]

I do but I've never had that make an issue before

Just today

I have been playing for 270 hours and all of a sudden, the switch button is just bugging out

[pearl viper]

Works just fine otherwise

I'll try my other computer later and see if this is a problem there too

[dreamy viper]

i have a question

once I make my bethesda account on doom eternal I can't change it or log out?

[digital flare]

lol that's really weird

Almost like the game doesn't want you to listen to the musics

[twin gale]

hopefully the music is loud by default in tda

[pearl viper]

Think I figured it out. If I alt+tab to reply to Discord to reply to someone and then alt+tab back into the game, it works just fine. If I do it fast and click before I let go of atl+tab, it disables tab in game.

[dreamy viper]

someone?

[pearl viper]

Somehow alt+tab+click breaks it now

[pearl viper]

Update, I can fix it consistently just by spamming left alt

[queen crag]

Hell yeah, I am down

[teal lintel]

Does anyone know why my slayer is invisible?

[pulsar slate]

my doom eternal is stuck at 12 - 20+ fps

it resched 30 fps at 1 time

[pulsar slate]

im having intense lag spikes

[steady vortex]

He's shy

[wet kraken]

Cant get the balloon easter egg in SGN, I’ve tried shooting the balloons with everything, any tips?

[steady vortex]

Oh a bday party gone wrong? Sometimes the balloons just bug out, for some reason. Try dying. Or reloading the last checkpoint if youre keeping extra lives.

[wet kraken]

Works now

Thank you

[fresh aurora]

how long did it take you to beat doom eternal

[steady vortex]

2-4 days casual play, with work and all.
Beaten DLCs a lot sooner.

Then continued playing cuz its just a blast.

[torn copper]

Is extra life a one-time pickup ?

[steady vortex]

No

You can reload the level anytime. The lives will always be there.

[tiny cloud]

hi i have a question its weird but i want to ask

i see on youtube a video for ultranightmare that "save" the game when the rune activated and you quit by "alt + f4" and re open the game you have the ultranightmare and i try it on ps5 it work but sometimes it doesnt

its a glitch by the way

[steady vortex]

How old is the vid? Maybe it was fixed? I never saw that tho.

[tiny cloud]

5 years and never fixed i tried yesterday

[steady vortex]

So you can get UN completed, and the skin, with a bug?

[tiny cloud]

yes

also work on TAG1 and TAG 2

[tribal lantern]

I need some tips on beating the super gore nest master level on nightmare, the five arachnotrons, (five or four) revenants, five tyrants and three archviles 🙏

[torn copper]

You mean. when re-entering a mission we can pick them up again?

[twin gale]

yes

[austere bronze]

does more harm than good

[tiny cloud]

can we just reload checkpoint for having the lives here ?

[alpine mortar]

@azure oriole Who gave the slayers mark on his helmet or did the slayer do it ?

[azure oriole]

This is unclear. I like to think the Sentinels or himself did it.

[sinful cliff]

Good if you wanna cheese lock-on rockets on the Khan Makyr

[strong oracle]

Does anyone want to play battlemode 2.0?

[gentle idol]

Me too, But I am almost done, just need 110 kills

[gentle idol]

Will Just 2 players be able to do it?

[gentle idol]

I am up, But I am on PC

[strange rock]

sup beautiful people… @austere bronze how you doing? wanted to ask what’s your take on the dark ages, are you going to game it on day1 ? or nah?

[strong oracle]

I am on switch does it matter?

[fresh aurora]

@steady vortexthe game was always bugged for me to where it would crash on the final level and one random day i was playing while the wifi was out and i beat it so it took me like 4 years

[gentle idol]

Yeah, Doom eternal doesn't have cross play

Afaik

[strong oracle]

Oh : (

[gentle idol]

@everyone PC Doom Eternal battlemode anyone?

[woven moth]

Doomz eternum

[azure oriole]

y do you pinged the whole server

[azure oriole]

I finished a Doom Eternal level tierlist, but I can't post images.

In text form:

S: Urdak, UAC Atlantica, Holt, Final Sin, Super Gore Nest, Immora
A: Nekravol, ARC Complex, Taras Nabad, World Spear, Cultist Base, Mars Core
B: Blood Swamps, Doom Hunter Base, Sentinel Prime, Hell on Earth
C: Reclaimed Earth, Exultia

[polar osprey]

i agree with most, yeha

holt was peak for sure

[oblique topaz]

Reclaimed earth disrespect

Combat lowkey fun

[azure oriole]

I don't really care for its visuals or its place in the story.

[strange rock]

interesting how you found certain levels not S tier… i think i disliked only super gore nest, i would rate it C, the rest are solid A minimum

[azure oriole]

sgn > everything else

[austere bronze]

wait who are you? i recognize your name but can't quite place you
i'm doing good though, and i'm absolutely hopping on TDA day one

15th may, not 13th though :c

[strange rock]

yeah alright, i was hoping so... are you streaming by the way? or at least YT vids?

i am just a fan of your gameplay lmao

[austere bronze]

oh cool

[austere bronze]

if i enjoy the game, which i imagine i will, i'll upload videos on it once i'm a bit familiad with the game at least

[strange rock]

fair enough... well i guess i would have to just watch someone who is good at the game, cuz i myself will have to upgrade my rig first, that's shame

[austere bronze]

will probably make like a montage as the first thing

as those can be interesting indepent of the skill of the player

[polar osprey]

a 2060 can play tda if thats what concerns you

[strange rock]

will see about that… well that’s actually my main concern cuz it’s a suckin’ laptop gpu and outdated 3050 lmao

[polar osprey]

possibly might be able to play it, whats your vram?

[strange rock]

uhh 16gb, afraid that would be a bottleneck too

[polar osprey]

vram not actual ram

[strange rock]

my bad, that’s ram 16gb, vram is 4

[polar osprey]

ah, welp, yep, gotta upgrade for tda

a 4050 laptop plays tda, kinda well, even with 6gb vram, but 4gb, no chance

[strange rock]

yep, so imma sit tight and watch professional do the gaming

[polar osprey]

a 2060 can also play it surrpisingly

[gentle idol]

I have the same specs

[austere bronze]

it will honestly be very interesting to be here from the start with TDA
in eternal i came in quite late, so i could just copy the strats and tech other people were already using. but now i'll actually have to come up with my own stuff and see the community develop

although, on my more recent time with eternal, i have started doing stuff i don't see anyone else doing in combat, which has been fun

[woven moth]

It's almost here

I need it

[strange rock]

that’s why im here, hehe, the goat m1

[woven moth]

That's why he's da goat. DA GOAT

[strange rock]

what difficulty are you guys planning to start TDA on? assuming you beat eternal on nightmare ofc

[austere bronze]

i'm thinking nightmare

although i might go UV with some extra modified sliders

[azure oriole]

uv

[austere bronze]

it all just depends on how the game feels, nightmare might be too hard for me on a first playthrough

[strange rock]

it’s funny how it is not mentioned in eternal, that nightmare is how the game should be played, but i think everyone agrees on that. sort of “standard difficulty” with UN being the actual challenge

[young mango]

I’m gonna do nightmare on my first run, because from what I’ve seen the games built for going higher than that

[austere bronze]

game might just be built for being able to much higher than that because they know how good eternal's playerbase got post-launch

[young mango]

Maybe, I’m saying this under the assumption that the gameplay will be easy to adapt to

Which it might not be, who knows, I’ll find out this afternoon

[austere bronze]

you got the premium edition?

[young mango]

yeah

[austere bronze]

oh awesome

[high wadi]

Did anyone ever use the level editor to make fascimile master missions for the ones the dev's missed?

[austere bronze]

there are custom master levels for all the levels in the game

there are multiple for each one even

[high wadi]

I should get back onto Eternal and look for those... I was a huge Master map lover. Did they let people put the Hammer in them by chance?

[azure oriole]

wrong

[austere bronze]

in some, yes

there is a mod to get the hammer in all levels iirc

[high wadi]

Hammer was a all around improvement over the crucible.

[austere bronze]

but if you're on the official mod preview you can get a mod to replace it with the sentinel axe

which doesn't break the gameplay loop of eternal, is more interactive, and generally much better

[high wadi]

Also the DLC enemies were so great. The armored knight is a blast, but the idea of using the plasma gun to do literal ghost busting was goddamn brilliant.

[azure oriole]

cursed prowler is brilliant

[high wadi]

That was one of the two times I died while playing Part 2 😄

[azure oriole]

and how can we forget about stone imps???

[austere bronze]

tag1 demons are really nice... tag2 however.... mehhh

[high wadi]

Stone Imps were great. Honestly I thought it was genius that they put in enemies specifically weak to the more underused weapon mods.

Auto Shotgun and Microwave beam are underrated.

[azure oriole]

Weird way to spell boring

[azure oriole]

proof??

[austere bronze]

true, but making demons specifically weak to a single weapon mod is kinda bad as it "forces" the player into a very narrow path, removing much of the expression in eternal's combat

exception is the spirit though

[azure oriole]

Spirit actually feels like a natural addition

[high wadi]

To a degree yeah, but all the same there are so many weapons and so many enemies. Somes times I was fighting the stone imps and I ran out of ammo and had to use the hammer 😄 Against the ghost I just think its fun. The microwave beam really is underrated. It locks super heavy demons in place as you fry them. The amount of ray needed is alligned with health remaining. So even against a tyrant, you can blast them down with a mini gun or something, then pull out the microwave beam to hold them in place. When they pop they make a huge ass AOE.

[jolly sedge]

CAN SOME1 HELP ME WITH DOOM ETERNAL MP ACHIEVEMENTSP LSSSS???

[gentle idol]

Are you on PC?

[jolly sedge]

yeees

[gentle idol]

Alright I am up

[jolly sedge]

i need kills on demons with all weapons :)

NICE thx <3 ly

[gentle idol]

Okay, I need more 85 kills

Steam?

[jolly sedge]

uhm okay 85 damn

[gentle idol]

Yeah, But can be done super quick

Just need 1 more then?

[jolly sedge]

i need kills with all 8 weapons

thats it

[gentle idol]

Alright

Let's do it

[jolly sedge]

ok add me what to do?

[gentle idol]

Dm me your steam ID

I will add you on steam

[jolly sedge]

i did

[gentle idol]

Yup, just a min

[alpine mortar]

@azure oriole why out of all the places hebeth is in Mars's core ?

[azure oriole]

Hebeth seems to be tying into Doom 3's depictions of the Martians, which portrayed them as having colonized not just the Mars surface but underground caverns as well.

[jolly sedge]

need a 3rd for private lobby anyone join plsss

someone anyone pLEASE

[keen kayak]

tell me about all the tech in doom eternal

@austere bronze

i thought it just has deep intended game mechanics not player-discovered tech

[austere bronze]

i got to go right now, i can go over it in a moment

[young mango]

The WR for DE is less than 18 minutes, deep intended game mechanics is a crazy assumption

[keen kayak]

ok

[azure oriole]

go fuck yourself vega

[shut adder]

What did Vega do?

[polar osprey]

keeps deleting links like a little bitch

[shut adder]

Ah ok.

[austere bronze]

it's not really reasonable to go over all the tech, but i can say some of the more usable things

weapon tech:
FSE (fast swap effect) — makes it so you can swap the rocket launcher/combat shotgun much faster. technically the ballista too, but that's frame perfect, and the ssg but you can't maintain it in any way.
Punch Canceling — makes you able to fire your weapon after a punch. if you apply FSE to the CSG/rocket launcher before doing so it'll be very fast.
MSC (mod swap cancel) — let's you cancel the bring down animation of weapons.
SMS (silent mod swapping) — let's you swap mods without any animation.
SLOB (sylar lock-on burst) — reduces the time to lock-on with the LOB
BATS (bring up animation transfer swap) — the ability to transfer the bring up speed of one weapon to another.
Silent BATS — combines MSC and SMS, making you swap weapon mod and cancel the bring down animation.
DDB (double destroyer blade) — makes you fire 2 destroyer blades. it works for the arbalest too, but that's less commonly used, albeit very useful against pain elementals.
FDB (fast destroyer blade) — halves the dblade charge time by making it inherit the charge time of the arbalest.
Wack Swapping — alternate way to activate FSE.

movement tech:
bhopping — allows you to maintain speeds above what's normally allowed after hitting the ground. done by jumping as soon as you land.
ballista boosting — gives you great momentum. done by having forward momentum, jumping, letting go of all movement keys (not needed if you don't use air control), turning around and firing the ballista, turn back around and then you can use movement keys.
yeethooking — by holding down A/D while yeethooking and detaching by swapping weapon, looking away, or punching you gain immense speed.
shield dashing — dashing into an enemy with the cs so it dies will allow you to maintain the speed of the dash, or by dashing into an enemy so only the cs hitbox hits the enemy (it has a larger hitbox than the slayer.

punch boosting — bit more complicated and niche, but can give you insane momentum in practically any direction.

there are many side effects of these things (like combo swap chains, commonly abbreviated as CSC), and just tons of things to go over for almost all the individual things

that's why i didn't explain any of the weapon tech, but if anything looks appealing, i'll be happy to go over how to do it :P

[noble totem]

trying to punch cancel on console is like trying to bang ur head against a steel fence

[austere bronze]

not really hard with the right binds

i'd say it's easier than on kbm

although harder if you wanna move well while doing it

[noble totem]

with my binds i have to put melee on circle/B no other way

kbm doom eternal is crazy better i can tell

[austere bronze]

i think you're vastly underestimating how good you can be at controller

would send a vid, but links aren't allowed in here currently

[azure oriole]

Is DOOM Eternal a sequel to DOOM: The Dark Ages?

[noble totem]

oh no trust me i know some controller players who are fucking insane, i think im only decent really but ive seen crazy ass controller players

it’s just personally kbm has more benefits to it

[noble totem]

dark ages is the prequel to everything even 2016

[austere bronze]

that's true

but i think the discrepancy is often overstated

[polar osprey]

tda is a prequel, its after doom 1 and 2, and maybe 64 but idk that

[twin gale]

i dont think a sequel would take place billions of years after the game it is sequeling

[azure oriole]

It is after 64

[wild salmon]

How did u get the profil decoration

[azure oriole]

The discord quest in #announcements

[calm knot]

when is Ted going to show up to the Ted talks

[worn terrace]

world spear today, reclaimed earth tommorrow, immora wed

then Horde Mode

THen ill be ready for TDA

[azure oriole]

🥱

[oblique topaz]

Ion rlly think skills from doom eternal transfer over bc it’s kinda like its own thing

[worn terrace]

well that isn't the point of my play through, just a countdown

its going to feel weird not dashing though

[mellow creek]

goon eternal

[fresh aurora]

thats wild

[mellow creek]

goon sprayer

[strange gale]

a large part of playing de is just fps fundamentals tho

[pseudo forge]

Just beat ancient gods part 2 and...damn. Is there anywhere we can realistically go from here? Is DOOM just over? (obvi we have dark ages coming but thats a prequel)

[fringe torrent]

The writers removed his demon-caused PTSD with no explanation for 9 years, they can do some tricks here to make a sequel

[sinful pike]

i mean the title of the game is a reference lol.

[pseudo forge]

ig but it would have to be a whole new era like classic doom and modern. Which sucks cus i like modern and i dont want it to end

[fringe torrent]

Eras are reliant on time, it's a matter of when, not if

[young mango]

they wrote themselves into a corner IMO. The DLC was rushed, TAG1&2 weren’t even the original plan, they could’ve very easily squeezed out another games worth of plot with that but ended the franchises timeline on a dlc

[strange gale]

just write an alt timeline or something

[fringe torrent]

They gave him a giant space castle out of nowhere, I really think with some bullshittery they can do this

[pseudo forge]

ig but idk

itll feel a bit cheap

[fringe torrent]

The original DOOM games had the opening story in the manual, I personally really do not care what they do here

[young mango]

Yeah 2016 set itself up for a sequel with that sort of cliffhanger ending, TAG2 straight up concluded

[pseudo forge]

well modern is more story based than classic anyway

[pseudo forge]

yea id rather it did a cliffhanger after dlc then a conclusion

then again it wouldve been painful to have a cliffhanger then 4 years later a prequel comes out

[keen kayak]

godamn, thanks

[civic thistle]

can 2 people help boost the 6 achievements for battlemode? would greatly appreciate it

[calm folio]

gang not gonna lie i have doom eternal deluxe edition on my oled switch

[boreal sand]

Is the dope fish an Easter egg?

[calm folio]

idk but probably

[boreal sand]

K thanks

[calm folio]

np

[noble ocean]

Mars Core Master level is stupid hard. What do you mean Hell Knights will continuously spawn while there's a marauder?

[spark moss]

dope fish does a archvile sound

[elder quest]

it took me like 50 attempts for the ultra nightmare

is the most difficult one

well, the dlc master level is way worse

[cedar laurel]

taras nabad for me

[nova widget]

I've been replaying doom eternal because excited for DA and return of the grind for the master levels

I only have to beat world spear on UN then I get the cool balista skin 😭

since I've done the other 3
i also dont have the cultist base ML since i didnt get the deluxe or whatev

[noble ocean]

Too many enemies makes the marauder insufferable.

[nova widget]

Mhm

[burnt moss]

If TDA has you playing more like a tank, I hope we can break marauders shields (yes I know they won’t exist in that time frame but I just really want to shatter marauder shields)

[twin gale]

just gotta get away from all the other demons

[noble ocean]

Very hard with continuously spawning hell knights

[twin gale]

fair

[fresh aurora]

@everyone how long did it take you to beat doom eternal?

[twin gale]

my first playthrough i dont remember it was probably a week or so maybe less

but it was on the easiest difficulty

[fresh aurora]

@twin gale honestly thats not bad ut took me a while to get used to the game

[twin gale]

i could probably beat the campaign in one run these days but it depends on how long i want to play it at a time

usually thats only 1-3 levels

[nova widget]

i take ~30 minutes per level

since i play on nightmare and like to get everything

[surreal elbow]

any update on pc nvidia cards working?

[tranquil nest]

Where does the doom hunter spawn in Nekravol part 1?

[noble ocean]

The last encounter in Mars Core Master Level is just... no... too long for tonight. My fingers hurt enough for now.

[odd horizon]

me with taras nabad master level

(god forsaken level that is)

[opal raptor]

its near the end

[tranquil nest]

Thanks. Getting it's left glory kill is the 2nd to last thing I need for my 100% nightmare, thanks!

[opal raptor]

One of my biggest issues with it is that its the demon's left side not your left side. So approach it on the doom hunters left

[tranquil nest]

Yeah, it's really freakin annoying

[bitter delta]

Hi

[tropic jewel]

1 lock on burst from rocket launcher kills hell knights from full health even, I usually kill em every time this way

[tropic jewel]

I also have trouble with this one I even got to the final big arena and then got into it then my game crashed on one of the runs. I'm glad I'm not the only one though.

Reddit apparently has that level lower in lists in terms of difficult master levels though and I don't see how

[austere bronze]

it's harder than SGN, but easier than TN/TWS

arc and cultist are the easiest ofc

[tropic jewel]

Yes that's pretty much the order that reddit has TN and TWS are top 2 for sure I've only done TN and haven't completed yet. Arc complex is one of if not my fav level I like the pace and the music I play the ML for funsies it's just a good time and a good warm up minus archivile.

[burnt moss]

Arc is a disappointment tbh, iirc

I used to be skilled and TN ML was too hard, and Arc ML was way too easy

[azure oriole]

Arc complex ML was there at launch when they didn't really know how to balance them for true high level play

[noble ocean]

Arc felt refreshing tbh

Maybe because my adhd brain can only take so much

[azure oriole]

its also a very long level

[chrome prawn]

When u die does a empowered demon spawn in another players campaign?

[noble ocean]

Which is? Arc or Mars Core?

[nova widget]

They're long levels?

[wanton moat]

I have a question what is better? To play the games in order or play them backwards from Doom Enternal to Doom 1?

[wise stream]

I Just died on ultranightmare again cause demons blocked me in very small space without exit

Super gore nest

Where you collect sentinel coin after jumping on platform that hides in floor and it opens

So yeah, i feel its unfair

[burnt moss]

I didn’t know that. Makes sense. In the beginning, quickswapping wasn’t even part of intended gameplay right?

[karmic otter]

Hello

[austere bronze]

quick switching was always intended

but not the more extreme player found quick switching

[radiant stirrup]

What do you prefer eternal or dark ages

[azure oriole]

holy shit its zero master!!

[rigid owl]

I'm stuck at the end of the level of the first DLC where we have to destroy the father's sphere. Do you have a way to get back to the final platform? The bump is disabled and I can't access it. I've restarted the level 3 times because of bugs.

[sturdy cosmos]

Eternal

[wise stream]

Eternal

[young mango]

Idk man tda just came out yesterday give it a chance

[austere bronze]

[vagrant falcon]

[tardy pier]

Is the chainguns shield a 360 shield or is it only in front?

[austere bronze]

[sinful cliff]

Where can I buy the Doom Eternal OST?

[twin gale]

no where you're gonna have to listen on youtube or download it somewhere else

[ancient kettle]

I’ve been trying to do UN and damn I remember why I stopped initially

But I bet I can do it eventually; just hate those first 3 levels

[jolly cedar]

was this game good?

[ancient kettle]

I think so

[polar osprey]

it was indeed awesome

[burnt moss]

Wait it’s out already?

[young mango]

Yeah, advanced access anyways

[polar osprey]

yeah, it runs pretty well

[frigid root]

Does anyone else get a feeling of discomfort when listening to the Doom Eternal OST nowdays? I don't know, after the whole controversy surrounding Mick and ID I just feel so turned off from it

I used to enjoy all the time lisening to the soundtrack, but now it doesn't hit the same anymore

I just lisent to fan-made/inspired music than the ost itself, and this genuinely upsets me

[azure oriole]

thats why I turn off music and listen to my own playlist

[normal haven]

Not any more than I feel bad for the workers who made my computer parts for low wages in another country when I play a video game.

[azure oriole]

so i dont have to listen the mid ost of eternal

[frigid root]

Agree to disagree

I think, even without the whole Mick thing, that the Soundtrack is really great despite everything

[azure oriole]

i disagree

[frigid root]

K

[normal haven]

It's a matter of taste, art is subjective

[ancient kettle]

but doom is eternal

[true heath]

Not at all

Only track I have a problem with is meathook

[azure oriole]

doomy turnal

[sweet hemlock]

Anybody know how to get rid of PB zoom?

[twin gale]

same

all the other tracks are top tier but meat hook specifically for some reason got old fast

[twin gale]

theres no way to get rid of zooming in but you can get rid of the scope hud that appears when zoomed in by setting your crosshair to just a dot

[sweet hemlock]

Is there a mod or cc?

[young mango]

Just quick scope

There’s zero delay between activating alt fire and pressing primary fire, you can press one immediately after the other and you won’t zoom

[tardy pier]

Can we all agree the slayer had demons he simply hated more in this game

Average imp gk: punch, stab.
Average prowler gk: split down the middle

Has the whole chest cavity exposed bro

[twin gale]

i hate them all

except pinkies they're so cute

[void ridge]

Hey does anyone have any tips for the final boss in TAG 2

[twin gale]

are you having trouble with any specific aspects of the fight

[tardy pier]

Just died to the end countdown of un sgn master level

I JUST WANT THE GOLD WEAPON MANNNNN AUGHHHHH

[void ridge]

The second phase

I wish they didn't have it to where it refills all of his health just up to a portion of it

[twin gale]

make sure you're paying extra attention to when he does his green eye attack because sometimes he might go to swing his sword and his eyes wont flash and you'll want to shoot him but dont because that heals him

also dash away whenever he's about to do a non green eye attack

to stun him make sure you use the ballista then switch to the chaingun with mobile turret equipped and just plunge bullets into his chest and also use 1 or 2 grenades depending on how many you have recharged

but thats only when his eyes flash greenp

[void ridge]

I'm on phase 3

[twin gale]

you also have to have good reaction time because he'll dash at you with his shield

when you see the cue wait about half a second then double dash away

also when you're glory killing zombies to refill your hammer or health/armor or whatever make sure you listen for the audio cue because he will not hesitate to dash at you with your back turned

[void ridge]

I got to the next cutscene

I have one more phase I think

Two bars left

[twin gale]

he'll start to spawn in weak super heavies in the last part of the fight just hammer them and then glory kill to refill it

[graceful hedge]

every time i launch this game i have to wait for the menu theme to end because its just that peak

[twin gale]

dark ages is gonna be the same way

[graceful hedge]

tried my hardest not to spoil myself for the dark ages

[real gust]

Y'all I messed up can I get sum help

[twin gale]

same but i was looking thorugh my youtube feed and someone straight up dropped the name of the first level in the title

[graceful hedge]

i didnt get early access because i wanted collectors and for that i had to buy the xbox verison of the collectors and THEN buy the steam version

[twin gale]

like why do people do that shit

[graceful hedge]

oof

[real gust]

I messed up I tried to play made a account and missed spelled my email n it still let me play but I can't verify my account what do I do

[twin gale]

it didnt make you put in a password?

[void ridge]

I DID IT NOW IM READY FOR THE DARK AGES

[livid python]

Gonna be at least a few weeks until I can get the Dark Ages so taking advantage by finally playing through Eternal for the first time on my PS5. Wow does this game feel amazing, feels just like the first time. Excited to run through the DLC for the first time too!

[balmy sable]

Hi need one persons help to go into a custom match for the 200 kills achievement. Pls dm me if you are willing 🙏

[royal arch]

hot take: the first half of exultia is better than the second half

[twin gale]

that certainly is a hot take but i respect it

[gray rivet]

Yea I like the encounter with the electrified floor after you get dash

But nah I do prefer the hell section

[oblique topaz]

is this bc the purple goo

[heady sluice]

Hey everyone, I'm coming here because I'm looking for a specific piece of gameplay that I think is from doom eternal, but it might be from 2016.

It sa scene where you're playing as I think the demon with the 2 rockets and a jetpack, and you find a tiny little dancing doom slayer, then just tear him in half. Does anyone know what that might be? I tried looking for it everywhere, but couldn't find it.

https://tenor.com/view/doom-slayer-jig-dancing-guy-gif-22807135

I managed to find a clip of the dance, but not the full clip itself

Migthve been a mod for all I know.

[nocturne lynx]

Sounds like a 2016 MP animation.

[azure oriole]

chat i need help w battlemode trophies

want to get them out of the way since i'm going for platinum

hmu if anyone's willing to help

[torn copper]

Today, while playing, the game kept crashing at the point where I was jumping into a portal and pop out towards the turret in the mission A.R.C. complex. How do I get through.

[pallid cypress]

i found smth like this and liked it. now its my pfp

[royal arch]

partially

[torn copper]

Well, the game keeps crashing in ARC complex.

[exotic gust]

got a question about loadign times

i get a black screen for like 5 mins when trying to get into a mission. i end up quitting out of the game as i cant do anythign else, is there a way to fix this or are the loading times just this long?

[polar osprey]

it should be like a minute at most if ur pc is really slow

mostly dependent on your hard drive

verify integrity of game files

[exotic gust]

it isnt thats what is confusing

[rugged bay]

low textures + 1.5gb texture pool + dlss x2 + 900p = 140fps+

[polar osprey]

on a 3050 laptop?

i was talking about a 3050 laptop in that scenario

[rugged bay]

oh.

[rugged bay]

on a 4050*

[polar osprey]

which their version has 4gb vram

[polar osprey]

yeah i saw benchmarks even before tda released

[rugged bay]

i got 150fps with it on the first 10 levels

[rugged bay]

me2

[rugged bay]

gg

6gb is already like the BARE BARE minimum

[polar osprey]

at first i was disappointed i wouldnt be able to play since the 2060 listed got like 28 fps

but then someone recorded 1080p quality dlss and it was 60 fps

and now im on ultra perf dlss 1.5gb text pool size at 90 fps

[rugged bay]

wtf

[rugged bay]

thats super good wth

[polar osprey]

yeah especially since the 2060 is outdated in a whole lot of ways

[rugged bay]

on a 2060 too thats unbelieveable

i was worried when the minimum vram was 6gb but my worries IMMEDIATELY disappeared when i searched up the benchmarks

[polar osprey]

like the cores not being nearly as powerful, vram slower, alot of other shit

[rugged bay]

good thing id kept their optimization game on bar

(i think most of the fps ur getting is from the frame gen)

[polar osprey]

nah im not using framegen :3

[rugged bay]

WHAT

deadass?

what the fuck

[polar osprey]

i dont think the framegen was even shown for me as a usable setting

[rugged bay]

oh w8

i forgot framegen was like 30 n 40 exclusive

[polar osprey]

yea lol

[exotic gust]

I've done this but the problem doesn't hasn't been solved. You got any more tips.

[polar osprey]

weird

[exotic gust]

Yeah it's really odd as my pc can run games like elden ring but struggles with doom

[pulsar comet]

Hii

Can anyone help with online trophys?

I need kill 200 times

Mi id is miguelsm_16

[azure oriole]

Doom is ternal

[twin gale]

i'd argue that it is 64

[weary osprey]

Terminal

[topaz wigeon]

I finally beat doom eternal

[twin gale]

gg

now beat it on ultra nightmare with only the combat shotgun

[topaz wigeon]

Oh hell nah

[twin gale]

thats too easy right

i'll throw on no damage

[topaz wigeon]

Even worse😭

[twin gale]

even easier? damn you must be good

turn your monitor off

use only audio

but also no damage un and combat shotgun only

[pulsar comet]

Need help with online trophys

[edgy creek]

Does anyone know why my game is capped at 72 fps? (my monitor is 144hz) ik that immediately sounds like a vsync issue but i've disabled it ingame, on nvidia control panel and even put the max framerate at 144fps on nvidia control panel, yet my game is STILL capped at 72 fps no matter what i do

[native mulch]

Have you tried to put your rig on the roof, toss it to the ground and buy a new one? 🤔

[edgy creek]

have you tried being useful?

[coarse pulsar]

That's mean

[wraith scarab]

Before entering a mastery level you must select a save file so the game can use the slayer tied to that save. Right now the only save I have with an upgraded slayer is a UN save and I'm worried if using that save would incur risk of deleting it upon dying. Say I were to select my UN file and then load up SGN mastery level on I'm Too Young To Die difficulty; if I were to somehow die in that attempt would that delete my UN save?

I'm on a new account btw so that's why my only save is a UN run

[coarse pulsar]

I don't understand any of that, the only thing I understand is killing demons and collecting all trophies

I have all of campaign trophies now I'm just working on battlemode 2.0 trophies

[twin gale]

can you even enter master levels from ultra nightmare saves

if you dont pick ultra nightmare for that then it shouldnt delete your save

maybe you should try to get to cultist base or super gore nest on another un save to see if it does delete it

[wraith scarab]

Never mind I risked losing my save for science to see what happens and looks like there's no risk. So it doesn't matter whether you use a UN save or not

[coarse pulsar]

I think we can all agree everyone's least favorited demon is the marauder

[paper merlin]

I’m almost done with doom eternal I’m on urdak

[coarse pulsar]

Urdak

[paper merlin]

It said lirdak

[coarse pulsar]

And no, no you're not

[coarse pulsar]

I'm telling you it's not

It's Urdak

[paper merlin]

Oh

I thought it was an L

[coarse pulsar]

I've been playing doom for years
