but why
that was hurt me plenty now the khan maykr fight is easy because of the bfg crusible strat in nightmare
thats what the game wants you to use
get close enjoy one shotting the khanybussy
quick switching is a thing
yes what about it?
even pb combat shotgun quick witch
it is
uhh yes?
dude the mud part in world spear is unbearable
they arent op tho unlike bfg
try it
Should i try horde mode before completing campaign?
i literally do it all the time
on console
you will suffer if you try
yeah but, UN is harder, i mean inweekly challenges it also works, when the mission says beat a map on nightmare
k
no play campaign
But I wanna try it so bad 
i have been getting good at pb rocket
trust us horde mode is hard
its hard if u havent even completed the campaign
and because of it im using remote detonate now
Then try it and you'll know.
Besides a playthtough is only 1.5 hours
okay
Horde is hard however the structure of horde means it gets harder as you progress while you also get stronger. So it evens out
cant wait to buy rip and tear pack for the cultist base master level
i dont understand how ppl survive at the last arena fights
they nerfed the hammer
maybe im not used to spirits and hammer since i dont even have the dlcs
Cant you pick the difficulty
i skipped all of the bonus bounty waves
They did? When
yes
doom eternal
it takes longer to get it back once you use it, you need more kills
Thought you knew about the whole horde mode hammer thing
indeed
its not like the dlc it has a fucking cooldown instead of weakpoints and glorykills
What
what
No it doesn't.
But you need 4 to charge it up instead of 2
4 glory kills or weakpoints can be done as quickly as sneezing. For how strong hammer is that’s how it shoulda been
void slayer moment
since when though? it's always been 4 wp/gk which does practically nothing as a "nerf"
in my first playthrough of horde mode was UV i got half of the achievements i died at the first arena on the holt but in my nightmare run i skipped the bounty waves and i didnt die i had 30 extra lives
You wanna clarify what you meant on there being a cooldown 
does anyone have an upgrade guide for ultra nightmare campaign?
feels like a nerf to me
( if you use the support rune you can have all your extra lives)
make unsubstantiated statement
refuse to elaborate further
leave
There isn't a cooldown of any kind tho
i use break blast for maximum funny and gameplay
but in my last save the uv one i didnt notice the support runes and runes
wat
dude does anyone have any tips for the shitty mud part in ws
what mud part
u struggle against zombies?
Loot magnet (armor then ammo iirc), then I personally just upgrade most of the armor before anything else. Rune wise, air control, equipment fiend, blood fueled. I max out heatblast during exultia - cultist
well idk but i recommend dblade
i thought ammo was more important
i do when 2 screechere‘d mancubuses are cyberbullying me while i can‘t jump and 1000 zombies are biting the shit out of me
and i walk slow as hell
meathook urself into the air
Not really, considering you can just chainsaw and get more. Then again everyone has different play styles, and I haven’t touched normal UN gameplay in months
Lock on + PB or whatever the first manc, chainsaw the second, ez pz
ammo and other things are more important
No dumb ridiculous weapon comboing for style points and all that
you can chainsaw basically whenever, but the crystal in exultia is a decent candidate for your first ammo upgrade if you wanna get a free heavy kill in the slayer gate (crystal refills chainsaw)
3 archies are decent but a spirit marauder is idk
So you’re telling me early game you wanna focus on ammo and stick with 100 health and 50 armor? 🤨
i focus in everything
that's not how focusing works
well idk my brain is smooth and outdated
I don’t think outdated is the right term but eh
smooth braon is good cuz bo thoughst
wrikle brain is bad cuz can think and feel sda
i tried 0.8 gamma with cinematic render mode it looks cool
I wonder what a smooth skinned baron looks like
if you insist on being inside the protected area the entire time because some chip damage from the fog is somehow worse than heavily restricted movement (and the mancs constantly being within sneezing range), then yea it's kinda annoying
google wont let me search it up
Me when parental controls are on my computer:
i dont have one

fuck
doom e ternal
hi
Alright i just got eternal now just wait for the installation
i tried to install doom eternal i think like a year or so ago and every tiem i booted it up it would crash instantly, i gave up on it for the longest time and i wanna play it now again, this happen to anyone else?
What platform
steam
Idk I’m on ps5
Yea driver problems were awful back then but it should be better now, the main trick is updating your drivers and OS - let the chat know if it works for you
ok
im not gonna try it very soon tho because it took 3 fucking hours and ton of space to download
The prime AAA gaming experience
Where downloading a game takes longer than finishing it
Haha I’m downloading it
Doom eternal doesn’t play around with extra life mode
Turn down the graphics settings so it runs ok?
Ive played 10 minutes and I already love this game
no no no, as soon as it got to the menu it would crash
Lock on rocket missiles make Doom Hunter so much easier
Only gets better!
Yeah I just completed the first mission and now I have to wait for the whole download
I died and now i have a choice to use sentinel armor. Should i use it?
if you want to take like 80% less damage yeah, bit cheaty-esque but if you really cant get past this boss
is there some sort of a consistent way to cheese the marauder? aside from just ssg + ballista quickswaps when he swings?
hey guys how would you rate both TAG campaigns? Since it's now on a nice sale it might be worth it for me to pick up, is it really worth it?
how the fuck is that cheesing the marauder?
SLOBing the marauder by the sides would be bit more cheesing it
i think tag1 is better then the main game for replaying, and maybe barely not equal to campaign?
bro idk i googled and thats literally the results i got LOL
it's just playing the game completely as intented
you are supposed to shoot the marauder when he flashes
swapping weapons is what they devs invisioned when making the game
yea thats what ive been doing, just wondering if theres a way to make the fight quicker
Shoot 2 grenades when you interrupt him
i missed the surprise sales coouple days ago, but i think its worth, tag 2 gets alot of heat but its still eternal no less
pb bal would probs be more consistant then bal-ssg-bal, and ofc slobs
considering you 2 cycle him either way, why would you waste nade
You can 1 cycle with 2 nades
sorry what are the pb slob abbreviations?
Precision Bolt/ Sylar Lock On Burst
then just lock on, lot better then throwing away 2 nades
yeah the steam reviews were really heated so wanted to ask here. Are most of those reviews valid?
Meh
If you're referring to the TAG 2 Steam reviews not really, at TAG 2's release it was review bombed because the DE community was having a fit over the lack of difficulty in the DLC - TAG 2 is fine and worth the purchase 
hmm, so ideally when marauder attacks i first lock on rockets into ballista and precision bolt swaps?
watch under the mayo video about it, its very comprehensive, its a gray area if the reviews are still valid, but i just think its worth it because simply its just more eternal, simple as
Neve Played The Dlc 

but then again, people kinda have the right to leave a negative review on something if its bad
true
Lock on doesn't work on Marauder unless he's already been stunned. And you don't have enough time to SSG then swap to lock on to get the burst UNLESS you also use at least one grenade to keep him stunned while firing the 3 rockets.
There's some nuance here and there but considering you only just discovered quick swapping to beat them, I don't think you'll be able to take advantage of the nuance for 1 cycles and what not.
so the year 1 pass for 15 bucks rn is fine to pick up?
I'd say so
alright thanks
Better than buying both DLCs full price 
lol
Fuck.
but first i have to complete this rerun of the base game campaign. Went up a notch (to ultra violence) and getting my ass handed to me
Sylar Lock On Burst
oh dont get me wrong i understand quickswapping, i never used the wep wheel on my whole playthrough. its just really figuring out how to make this one guy less annoying to deal with 😂
but the grenade tip to keep him busy for longer is a very nice tip
Interesting how his username sounds so good for this mechanic
tbh marauder isn't too difficult to deal with he isn't super tanky and his attacks are super predicatable
just know the timings and the 2 weapons you need and repeat a few times
i guess the most difficult thing is getting the distance right so he does his glowing eyes attack
The most difficult part is having him not bug out /s but not /s
yea i agree, hes not difficult on its own at all. its just annoying that the entire pace of the game slows down to a crawl because he exists
never encountered a bugged marauder, could you explain what you mean by this?
There's plenty that causes them to be bugged.
Originally in older patches, it was literally impossible to stun a Marauder if he was on sloped surfaces (most notably Taras Nabad stairs).
Friendly Fire causes him to bring shield up INCLUDING mid swing, which does 2 things: messes up your parry timing, and makes him spawn a wolf.
The devs confirmed this was a bugged interaction, but they "decided to keep it" despite most players considering it generally unfun and making it more frustrating rather than adding depth.
There's some other issues where their sideways dash can put them into weird locations, most notably in master levels where they aren't normally present in base levels (SGN 4 portal room is the weirdest example)
Also sometimes the Marauder will never actually flash green, just stare at you OR stare + shotgun you. Normally he'll throw an axe, then do a green flash, maybe a shotgun, but every so often he just gets "stuck in a loop" or something.
he's just contemplating his life's choices now that he saw the slayer
I keep getting stuck on objects

I fucking keep running into enemies and getting stuck on them, even the doom hunters
FUCK!!!
welp purchase has been made. My first sacrifice this summer sale
any news on the sountrack releasing still? been like 2 and a half years since the game came out
i feel like they have to say something at least about it lol
question: how do i get the red classic doomguy skin in eternal? I couldn't find anywhere in doom 3 bethesda button or anyting
Should i get the original doom slayer skin?
I still can't pet the dog
Should I use demonic slayer or no
Tip for Doom hunter:Follow Game Instruction No?


not even a week and uh i did it #screenshots
What did you do?
Doom eternal and it’s second dlc were review bombed 
Nearly all of them aren’t justified reviews
Hey guys I got Doom Eternal like a week ago
I didn't like TAG2 as much as TAG1 or Base Game, but it was still "more content/levels" that were generally fine, if a bit lackluster. I think there were things to dislike about it, but the hate it got was definitely exorbitant.
Also isn’t eternal still recovering from the Denuvo update review bombing
Such a petty way to get the Devs’ attention
I think I’m about to do a boss wish me luck 
Im stuck on a mission
There’s like this green laser at “infiltrate the cultist base” mission but it doesn’t reach the point where it has to go
Go down the hole and shoot the green target. Then immediately go punch the button when it lifts you to the upper level
That actually worked thanks
Which one?
A priest guardian the first one
Doom Hunter? Chainsaw, rocket launcher and flying on a sled?
Uhh idk I just got off I just unlocked the chain shotgun tho
Run around until it works. Or reload checkpoint
Ive tried everything
From making my resolution the lowest and ratio lowest to reloading the mission
You mean the meathook right? On Cultist Base?
Yeah the shotgun with the meathook
Its nice
I did skip one of the purple rooms you have to get the key for
Can I get back to them later?
It’s called the Super Shotgun or SSG
Super Hooker Shotgun*
Yeah it’s my favorite gun right now
Yeah, that
That never really changes
🆒️
I dont like the ssg much without quickswapping it doesnt fit the pacing of the game when it has to reload each time you shoot imo
Neither does ballista then 
Thats why i always quickswap between the ballista and the ssg lol
still slow
I barely use them without a 2nd weapon
You constantly shoot instead of reloading theres no waiting time
Im on controller its pain
About the same as ssg bal, just gotta practice more
Having to hold l2 while doing everything else just feels weird idk
Me tries to play Nightmare mode master mode gore nest The one Archvile 
Yea fuck that one in particular lol
true
Thankfully an ice bomb & 2 lock-on bursts takes care of him. But the fact that the fodder still spawn especially with the fucking revenant spawning in the building across from you makes it a bit of a nerve-wracking section to say the least.
Thanks for the tip
Why is the h not alined with the j
This is infuriating
After beating the game 3 times, twice on 100%, once on any%, once on nightmare, once on extra life and once on too young to die(up to taras nabad) and after messaging Bethesda i finally got the last achievement that i was missing and finished my platinum trophy
Told Bethesda that the achievement is bugged and sent them proof but they just replied with "well no clue what to do we added the milestone tho"
(they didn't add anything, not the milestone and not the reward either lmao)
Nope
As i said, i just got 100% again for the trophy so i got the milestone too
Wdym
Dont confuse me like that lmao
Same its almost 1am and i have nothing to do anyway
Might play some final fantasy or sumn
Smh my head
By achieving 100% a g a i n
It was bugged when i completed my nightmare playthrough
So i got 100% on tytd
Fuck this its late
I got it after getting 100% for the 2nd time(i got it myself, not by asking Bethesda)
Good idea
Nah the reviews are from ppl upset over 1) Denuvo anti cheat update which was reversed, or 2) tag 2 was actually too easy
hi doomers
god forbid a game has movement options beyond WASD and jumping
Game journalist review 
and yknow, GOD FORBID offering the player more interesting decisions to make than "do i press win button #1 or #2"
holy shit, they added win button #3
Does anybody want to play invaision mode mod

quick switching good
I gotta replay 2016 at some point, its been awhile.
I’d replay 2016 in a second if they allowed controller customization
i wont replay 2016
2016 imp scary than a baron in doom eternal
Every battle in 2016 is a boss battle in the first 3 missions lol
Like custom button bindings? They do have a few presets.
It blew my mind when someone mentioned that the baron of hell in doom eternal is a giant hell knight lol
Anyone got any advice for the cultist base on a ultra nightmare run? I’ve tried using two different save files, one being a nightmare and the other being ultra nightmare and I’d have my nightmare be my practice so I get the lay out and feel of the level while my ultra nightmare file is me playing the level but I haven’t gotten any luck so far.
I need custom though. I use a setup that Rodark recommended.
no i wont replay it cuz it takes up storage and i dont feel like deleting anything lmao
I think it’s a larger DreadKnight
The hell knight and baron were color swaps in doom 2, baron being tankier
To better represent the hierarchy, the hell knights were made smaller and barons were given more facial features
kinda lame that the buyable series events don't go on sale on steam
I had the game on my xbox since launch and I don't have all my old skins and now I just would probably buy some of the event sets if they were even like $6 instead of $9
More of a problem with how bethesda.net does not keep all your skins for some reason like come on man
It’s a problem that’s plagued the game since launch that they’re probably never going to fix
The game's basically done so yeah
I mean they never changed the swap equipment launch to become just fire ice bombs or frags
seriously it's so annoying that you have to do that
Eh, that’s a small issue
I rarely use grenades because of this it's one second too much for me
hey its you! the homophobic troll!
if you are wondering tho, it stands for bisexual
is it really that much though? instead of pressing 1-2 for frag & ice you press 1-2-1. that's one extra button press
It's more about like, oh shit I need to be on top of which grenade I currently have equipped
Doom eternal players avoiding googling like the plague
what the fuck is a google
It's a small thing but it messes me up
So true !
Imagine Bing but worse
what the fuck is a bing

Imagine AskJeeves but worse
Eternal chat when no eternal 
what the fuck is
True !
hi

nobody gives a shit about spoilers anymore right it's been 2 years
omg dont spoil
I don't talk in this server so I really dont give a shit about its rules of spoiling n shit
wtf man I wanted to watch that pentagon propaganda
what was bad incident ?
there was a incident but i forgot the story
I hope they put Blazkowicz in the next doom game
to be fair, i don't really feel any type of way about it, i just like how it feels to input. can see how the mental aspect gets in the way of streamlining though. on the other hand doom 2016 has three equipment types tied to one switch button so thank fuck they're all irrelevant
:catno:
debatably
I don't really know what changes now I havent played in a year and a half
I got nothin special about July
I am ready to change my profile picture back to mullet slayer for one day
I have had this profile picture since before the doom eternal delay and I've only changed it for 4th of july
No the american mullet slayer is funnier
Damn that’s crazy, anyways
Lovely eternal discussion 
You want doom eternal discuission? i want a fuckin uac atlantica master level
I'm probably gonna mod it in
There probably is one. Best level in the game
Blood Swamps is alright
The Holt is better. Except for hayden fuck you 5th phase
Immora is the least interesting level in tag 2 it resembles urdak a bit too much for my tastes
excluding the dark lord fight if you count that as a level
Wat
Nah not yet
bro
Maybe one day idk I can get through nightmare without too much difficulty
the other day i started my first ever nightmare run of the campaign. this is my second time playing this saveslot and im already on urdak..'
nitemair
I'm new to this server so ;-;
cool
Do you guys think doom is done? I'm honestly kinda split but I'm leaning to the fact we're not getting anything new anymore
image is close enough
anyone here use ESDF in their keybinds settings?
Tragic, indeed
Well I finished doom in 3 days so now what...?
?
well, im not using ESDF keybinds now, im just searching for a new setting of keys
lmao
I still think it's lame as shit that previous series events arent going on sale
I want my fucking lux shitgun
yeah for $9 which is like a lot for the fact I really only want the lux shitgun
Very inviting we are.
Welcome
yes you're getting banned
E
you gotta use a toaster oven beam now
😫
anyone ever see the video of the guy rating the ass of all the doom eternal demons
yes
No, orange names are mods. I’m a server booster
Have you fully upgraded it?
Imagine using the mbeam at all
Goddammit the fight in super gore nest master level ultra violence when 4 tyrants spawn and then 2 archviles. That has nearly broken me
I used all my BFG ammo there lol
I dropped everything and went for the archvilles immediately. I also saved my crucible blades for them
They really pissed me off
Ohh
then why are you in eternal chat
Saber would be a cool mod doe ngl 
There's 3 archviles i think
2 spawn in the middle and one by a building near the slayer gate
If you space your bfgs right you can still have one for the end of the level
With the timer going? I just hauled ass and not fired anything but the meat hook to use demons to go faster
Yea. It'll be a good idea to distract the double marauders at the very end
Though you can get by without it
I just speed boost and they didn’t even touch me
Wait until Nightmare lol
The threat to me was the marauder by the tryant.
And nah I finished all the master levels on ultra nightmare
It took me weeks tho lol
I'm still working on that. Mars core is long as hell
BRO FR. I just about cried beating that. I honestly died the most on the hallway with the cyber Mancubus with the hell knight and imps and the two pain elementals after the 2nd arena with the two archvilles
🥵
FUCK THAT HALLWAY
I'm gonna use a bfg there
DEADASS. I had to time my freeze bomb and used so much thinking bruh
It's right before the infinite bfg area so I should be safe
I only used the BFG on the mars core level in the unlimited BFG ammo arena and the final arena
Could always skip that hallway entirely 
How would you react Argo if I told you I did that level without guns on UN
Master level?
Wanted to try something different and do one of these videos with a bit more explanation. I feel like I should make videos with just the tricks used so people have quick references, but hopefully this helps people more than just the text normally does.
Make sure to check out my Twitch where I livestream!
Twitter: https://twitter.com/BloodShot9...
Okay what the actual fuck is that skip lmao
Yep
Funky skip lol
Think I'll just rip and tear my way out this one
No
okay🗿
Subscibed :)
mullet slayer or cosplay slayer ?
neither
welp im gonna buy the franchise again
omg hi revxiz
and also how do i play 2016 like eternal
hi tmg
They're both bad
should i buy doom franchise bundle again
why would you buy it again
i refunded it because i wanted a new one but im now thinking my life mistakes
buy it if you want to play the games
doom franchise is on sale
doom eternal bug vulkan
and what when am no having vulkan
why my amd is 2015 driver why why 2017 game working
the doomcubus
should i delete C:\temp so i can download doom 2016
the game im plating rn is very cool
i was playing the arc complex on extra life then the game crashed at the end of it 
nvm my data got corupted
I just did the first boss I ever did and it was tough since he multiplied twice 
Which difficulty
Im playing on “normal” mode and I got it first try but I was on the brink of death like 70% of the time
the bad thing is that my data got reseted
I was thinking the doom hunter was easy until two more spawned
i used auto combat shotgun mod on it and lock on burst after CRITICAL DAMAGE
r u guys new to game?
Yeah I used my energy weapon for the shield and then autoshotgun and rocketlancher
just do mobile turret chaingun and then get the overdrive powerup
Since yesterday
Is that ur max hp?
I have like 150 hp and 75 armor
Why does the ||dark lord look like doom slayer||
No reason, actually
They wanted to make a reason for it inlore but didnt cause of time constraints.... apperently
good question
wha
didn't the first doom take place 2022
Ive read he’s eons old
This is what it says on google: Here's where things get purely theoretical (but oh-so-fun): let's assume that the countless eons the DOOM Slayer waged war against Hell went for, well, as long as this particular universe can count. Our universe is widely considered to be about 13.8 billion years old, which we'll say is 13.8 eons
Idk I’ve read its stated somewhere in the games
Maybe there’s a big time skip when he got his powers?
Its confusing
That proves he’s not a human?
Google also says this: By this point, you should know what that massive number from earlier means. Assuming the DOOM Slayer never stopped slaying from the beginning of his rip and tear days to now, which lasted as long as the known universe, he would have dispatched over 96.7 quadrillion demons. And if this is true he can’t be that young
Yeah
That’s a lot of demons
Why you woldn't
Doom 1, 2, and 64 take place in a dofferent universe then 2016 and eternal
They literally do go out in an alternate universe, what's the evidence for it
The earth lores dont add up
Like?
whats temp files should i delete so i can download doom 2016 from the doom franchise pack
doom franchise bundle is on sale
sentinels are 6'8
🤯 almost as if it's steam summer sales
stasis more like taking a long nice nap
and got angry for to demons waking him up
did i say that he aged ?
Not the case, 64 ends with doomguy deciding to stay in hell forever.
Eternal sentinel lore shows that you somehow ended up on the planet, crazy and talking about demons
In 2016, it's said that he is in the coffin because the hell priests dropped a temple on him, knocking him out long enough for them to put him in stasis
stasis = sleep or nap
anyone knows how to avoid archvile/whiplash wave attacks?
whiplash blade wave can be dodged in a flat surface
I know
Stay in the air or probably dashing at the last moment
Chaingun shield if you want to just negate it instead of dodging it
alr
the whiplash wave can reach your toes
"Stay in the air" doesnt mean just double jump height
okay🗿
I'm playing rdr2 rn
Doom 64, 2016, ans eternal are all linked together
Fairly certain d64 was linked to doom1/2 too
Rdr2 the best game singleplayer with half life
No, different universes, same doomguy
Well
1,2, 64 happen in the same one, 2016-eternal in a different one
With all having the same hell cause that one is always there
Yeah
He somehow got teleported there
No that's already on the sentinel planet
Post dimensionhop
is there a ssg classin sound asmr ?
I think i need to do the same
0.8 gamma + cinematic render mode + 80 hud opacity looks so good
Show me
Yes I love rdr2
He was very hard because I followed the game’s advise and used Plasma Rifle
When does the alternate timeline split off?
i got doom 64 title and icon
But wasn’t the coffin in hell, where he decided to stay in 64? Seems like it could be same timeline
I keep getting stuck on purple goo shit lol
the reason why icon of sin keeps waking up because no crusible
Icon of Sin was resurrected using the Betrayer’s son. That part makes sense in the same timeline.
Not timeline, universe
And after 64
Same hell 
Only the earthy universes are different, hell is hell

Why do you think they’re different universes?
Eternal. That’s why the betrayer gives you the knife for the heart
Different earth lores, pretty sure hugo confirmed it, tag2 saying that there are different universes and that hell links them all up
I don’t remember TAG 2 talking about multiple universes. What conflicting lore requires two earths?
Also a cut khan makyr voiceline but i'm not really counting that since it's cut out of the story
Any news on future content?
God i clearly remember something that jekkad was the center world off which all other worlds sprang off of or something but i cant find it
No I agree with that, but not the idea of multiple universes. Earth is Earth. Doomguy is a US Marine on that Earth.
Well again, earth lore is different
Doomguy has his classic helmet in the sent. Prime cutscene, showing that it's the same person
If it's the exact same earth, why didnt the hell invasion kick off earlier? Assumimg the classic 202x date is correct
When does it make sense to you that there would be an invasion? If not after the UAC finds a hell portal in 2016?
Well if it's the same earth but doomguy wined up back in time, but on argent d'nur.... then earth shouldve gone the exact same route as it did in the classics. Cause doomguy couldnt have influenced earth's timeline
And if it's an "alternate" timeline with the same hell.... then it really is just a difference in naming cause they kinda function the same tbf
I don’t know what happened in the classics. Are you saying that because the Eternal Earth wasn’t already invaded that it’s not Classic Earth?
Well basically, cause how else could they not have found a portal to hell? Either it's a differenr earth, or it's an """alternate timeline""" earth which again, basically means the same if you can
Doomguy himself couldnt have had an impact on the research
It can't be the exact same universe/timeline because otherwiss the events would happen at the same time, in the relatively same way
Davoth/the dark lord?
There uhhh, actually is no real reason for why they look the same
Kinda yeah
How heavy is a sentinel armor and marauder axe and armor
Doom guy got powered by a crystal juice
His art in the tag1 codex entries look vaguelly like doomguy, and considering the throwaway line at the end of tag1, nahh
Davoth might have used hes body for doom guy so when he got powered up he can withstand the power surge
Huh
Well you do need a body that can withstand a massive power surge
Like the divinity machine killing people because of the power surge they cant withstand it
Doomguy was just born human though, and he looked like that in the classics
Davoth is a god tho
if only i had a capture card to record my ps4 gameplays
Maybe davoth and the time he was born a human he gave his physical form
My brain just shut down reading this
To doom guy
Yes my grammar is dying
Yeah and, he was reduced to just a whisper millions of years before the classics even happened
i dont understand how ppl who only do ssg ballista can complete mars core on un but when i use all my kit i just die and idk how
Monkey brain only understand single combo that work so monkey brain shall use the entire time
u can bypass reload by quickswitching
Cause he has a part of davoth inside of him
Also, by your logic of them borh being primeval=looking the same, then why dont all butchers look the same?
Yup
Doom guy is the primevel of earth
There is no reason, they just do
basically as far as we know
they wanted to give an explanation, but they couldn't cause they nuked the lore in tag2 cause of time constraints
cause slayer is the good side of davoth or something like this, they split after he was defeated
imo that was kind of silly but where they went with it. tag1 and tag2 is like real dirty cleanup fast written lore to tie it all up. He basically slayer is as davoth as davoth, but is all good things about davoth, and davoth is all bad things about what they both used to be when they were one being. Kind of like the good and bad version of himself.
So in a way, slayer is cleaning up his own mess and rebelling against himself, because he is davoth.
tfw even more fanfiction then tag2 lore
There are a couple of potential answers as to why they look the same. Some take it as confirmation Doomguy was always a Primeval and the Divinity Machine "unlocked" his powers rather than "gave" them to him.
I personally am of the opinion that it's essentially cosmic coincidence. Statistically people can always look the same as others simply because there are only so many different faces. I personally believe Doomguy just so happens to look like Davoth as a sign of his destiny to be the one to defeat him.
not really unless you think you have monopoly on thinking. It fits perfectly with why he is locked away in hell and it says 'do not open' essentially. And why the marauder calls him 'a false idol' cause he's basically davoth but davoth who doesn't like the demons. It's davoth's good side, the only one who can defeat davoth is himself.
The latter I find much more satisfying.
except that.... he literally is just a person who joined the military back in doom1 
Doomguy isn't literally Davoth; Doomguy was a human being with a family who was gifted Davoth's powers using the Divinity Machine.
Metaphorically I can see where you're going with that, though.
it's retcon lore i don't give a shit about the old lore back in doom, they retconned it massively for doom 2016 and it's all obvious unless you want to deretcon it to that he's a random dude that join military. doom 2016 and especially eternal lore make it very clear.
Metaphorically I can even agree. Doomguy and Davoth share a lot of qualities when it comes to their personalities.
Also no, that is objectively wrong. The Slayer has always been the original Doomguy, who was a space marine.
That was the way it was even in 2016. They didn't retcon anything.
look if you want doom eternal and doom 2016 to make sense then slayer is davoths good side. Otherwise you can throw away dlc and the doom eternal lore 😄
😄 just like ID did! /s
Bro, I wrote the longest Doom lore guide ever written. I've studied this story front to back many times over, to the point id Software read my guide. You are simply wrong.
They already make sense under the established plot point that the Slayer is Doomguy and he's the Slayer because Davoth's powers were gifted to him, which is outright stated in Eternal, same as him being Doomguy.
anywas in this case i reretcon wyrdsie's "explanation" because apparently they can just decide lore isnt relevant, so i can too
It's in the pins!!
Check it out! It's over 200 pages of pure Doom timeline and analysis!
If anyone can get the powers from that stupid machine then it's irellevant who doom guy is. Why doesn't literally anyone just use that machine and now they are as powerful as davoth is. It only make sense if he is the only one who specifically this machine has this particular effect on because he's technically davoth.
cause doomguy used the only dose
Nope, not anyone, you are wrong.
they also both after fall of davoth davoth is stored away in that red sphere, and doom guy appear in hell right?
Samur was blinded with newfound conviction as unbeknownst to him, the voice of the Dark Lord controlled and compelled him to free a stranger from his prison and bring him to the Divinity Machine. Samuel knew without knowing that if the machine could destroy a life it could also empower it with blinding ability. The one who would emerge from the Machine would stop the reckless Khan Maykr from leading his people to ruin.
codex entry The Seed of Doubt, tag2. kinda sounds like anyone could take it's power tbf
The Divinity Machine could only give someone those powers ONCE, and Samur was the only one who knew it could do so. Everyone else believed it was a purging device to destroy the Khan's Malicious One.
Samur only used it on Doomguy because Davoth touched his mind and manipulated him into doing it. He had become convinced the Khan's treachery would lead them to ruin; they needed a savior. A Slayer.
it's why it's stupid to go and use the old time lines to try and put it together because one kind of contradicts the other if you want it to make sense doom guy is not a random dude that join military but is davoths equivalent. Is why he can kick the ass of demons so much, why he ends up leading the army of the night sentinels in argent d'nur, he's basically exactly like davoth is the entire time is why he is so powerful.
doomguy passed out cause he has a piece of davoth's power, and that got taken away when davoth died
^^^
wdym "old time lines" that's literally tag2 lore.
hell you are even MAKING YOUR OWN LORE based off of nothing instead, which kinda is worse
The series literally explains this. Doomguy faced the demons three times over in the original games and was consumed by trauma and rage by the time he gets to Argent D'Nur
He hated the demons even before he became the Slayer.
if you want it to make sense doom guy is not a random dude that join military
except that that is stated in classic lore, which has never really been contradicted afaik
And classic lore is canon to this.
well the classic lore is really stupid if you want to say it's not retconned in doom 2016 and eternal, they make him into superman, supersayan slayer who lead armies of argent dnur even able to defeat the makers themselves, and OPENLY ADMIT that he can do this cause he has super powers equivalent to davoth, given to him by divinity machine. He is so much like davoth that they look identical be it davoths choice to do that or because they truly are the same.
Yep
let's not forget how stupid the classic doom lore is cause it's not meant to make sense just about here's a guy they kill his rabbit and now he kill demons
....but it's explained how he got to that level?
The new lore recontextualizes the old lore though lol.
so it's so stupid to say well he's just a regular dude and just total random marine can do that cause he got angry
Again, they explain all of this. And no, it's not just because of his rabbit. That's also wrong.
It's funny how you keep making up shit that is wrong and then getting mad at that shit you just made up.
the explanation is idiotic is the point 😄 and it's like the obvious part where they want to go, which the old lore keeps getting in way of, is that he's good side of davoth, is why the marauder calls him a false idol. Who do the marauder serve? davoth, what does slayer look like and have powers like? davoth.. So that little mini convo where he say you not like davoth you are false idol, i am not afraid of you or whatever.. and then he get his ass kicked. But that's because he realizes he is not davoth he's a false idol.. he's the slayer, the good side of davoth.
You are literally the only person making this up. So no, I don't think it's where they want to go.
Who do the marauder serve?
the khan, it's explained in the sentinel lore books after they saw that the makyrs are spanning together with hell there was a civil war between makyr supporters, and doomguy supporters
THAT TOO
I can’t wait for the next doom release to completely ruin every single message in this conversation
well i mean considering which you have said you wrote a 200 page thing trying to tie the old and new lore together to point of ID just defer to you cause they think yeah whatever that dude is saying. ID seemed to have retconned things and then just said whatever try tie it together to make it make sense anyways if you want to. Which is what you have then tried doing. But it's obvious where they were going with it.
You are WRONG about that too. The Marauders do not fucking serve Davoth, that is wrong, the Codex literally states that the Marauders are servants of the Khan Maykr and have been since the Argenta Civil War.
what does slayer look like and have powers like? davoth..
yeah cause of lore they had to cut out the game, leaving out the actual explanation that they wanted to put in....
So you literally are making up lame excuses to explain a story you haven't even researched.
you bet!!
so marauder is not demon? davoth not creator of the demons? The slayer didn't lead the sentinels against the demons in argent d'nur?
And no, id didn't retcon shit, them not going with your weird theory is not retconning. This plot point with the Slayer has always been the intention since 2016, whether you like it or not. 64 had always had this plot point set up, 2016 used it. It is canon whether you like it or not.
Marauders literally are not demons, no. They are resurrected Loyalist Night Sentinels.
They fight for the Khan. They are not demons.
you could argue they are demons because they are revived using hell energy, just like all other demons
they just remain more sentinel-like
IIRC the Khan never even used hell energy.
also, don't all demons technically not really serve davoth? cause like, he's dead for a loooong time
The Codex implies they were revived using Maykr "magic". I suspect they used the Divinity Machine in some way, or something analogous to it.
the divinity machine yeah
but tbf if doomguy has all of davoths power then it has new energy now anyways, nvm
UhM AChEwAllY if marauders aren’t demons then why are they under the demon classification in the codex 🤓
Lmao
🤓 why are makyr drones?
the father imprison davoth and then the maykrs use hell energy and that other energy to power urdak so they don't all die.
they use a mix of hell energy and sentinel/wraith energy yeah
or go through transfiguration or whatever, yeah the argent energy.
You can't even explain the motivations of the Maykrs but you'll talk down to us about what the story's ackshually about and why they retconned entire plot points.
I will leave that discussion to people who have researched this topic.
You got me there
mono you dont get it, the khan is actually davoth in disguise, the codex entires are lying to you!!!!
hell is flat!
RETCON.
the chemicals inside the argent are turning the makyrs gay!
The arrogance of you people
Ayo so he was whispering into his own cross dressed/specied- ears? 😳
It's very simple lore to begin with and is easily explained, and i know exactly what the maykrs are and how the father create them and how they imprisoned davoth and this. Stop making this lore into PHD level it's not that deep.
true, it's not that deep, yet you still get it wrong
It's not PHD level, you're right. Which is why it's so silly that you can't seem to get it.
yes
take a guess what the "tentacles" are under the khan makyr's dress
I'm just pointing out how it's stupid to be such a lore buff to try to and square peg round hole him into being normal guy when they clearly were going with the super hero vibe and of he was like a specific guy with very specific qualities etc.
It's not square peg round holing him into shit. It's literally the canon explanation.
the canon is shit is the point, and then they make him into super hero whilst still saying oh well he's normal guy btw.
The story blatantly confirms what we're saying. You are wrong, end of story, actually pay attention to it and thej vome back to us.
Heh he got square pegged alright
he was a normal guy untill he got put in the divinity machine
Yeah you blatantly do not understand what you're talking about. I advise you to go back and play the game, pay attention to the story and Codex, then come back to us.
like honestly idk if you're even trolling or just blatently refusing to read the codex entries
quite long though 
also tiny bit of fanfic to fill up the actual plotholes i thought
Nah it’s better to read the in game codices. After all what better way to put two and two together by starting with what everyone else had, instead of a literal textbook
TBF I think all of the speculation I make was made with relatively rational assumptions going off ingame content. And it's all color-coded!
I'm not trolling but both you and that guy is extreme arrogant. You not objective about it. I watch for instance making of doom eternal and it's very clear which hugo also talk about that the inspiration for slayer in the new games is that he's like a christlike figure, where they use robocob as example, who is like betrayed by his own guys and rises again from the ashes and goes and kicks their ass. It's very clear that is philosophy. And this does NOT jive with the old games. So that you go to old games and say well it says back in this 1994 game that he's a guy who joined marines, yeah well they departed from the old lore cause the old lore was shit. if you still want to put them together you can try but it would be stupid and make far less sense than if you stuck with the new philosophy of what the slayer is. Which you clearly don't like.
Considering it’s 200 pages though I meannnn I wouldn’t say there’s a “tiny” amount
I agree it's better to read the Codex files at the source. THEN, if you're interested in seeing an interpretation that puts it all together into a simpler, readable format with some neat flair to it, the guide will be great for you.
so slayer is a VERY specific person, hugo even says in that interview that he has personal strong feelings about what doom guy is and represents, but he won't say that because it make people upset (like this lore guy).. very clearly not a random guy or random marine in doom eternal. I can find interview for you if you like, and you can stay arrogant all you want.
You are still wrong. None of the Christlike, superhero-like characterizations of the Slayer contradict the old lore. He once was a normal guy, then he became a superhero. Done and over with.
yes he needs literal superpowers to not be this random marine dude but the slayer he becomes in doom eternal..
Yes. And?
He went from a normal guy to a superhero. What of it? None of this contradicts what Hugo says.
You not objective about it.
where are we not?? like honestly? we are literally going straight from the source, you are having this point with him always being a god
it's very clear which hugo also talk about that the inspiration for slayer in the new games is that he's like a christlike figure
keyword, new
And this does NOT jive with the old games
yeah because, again, he only got empowered AFTER the classics, then he arrived in a new dimension because of hell portal thing. it does not contradict the lore anywhere, and if it does please explain it to me then
newdoom and classic doom are not the exact same games, newdoom comes after classic doom, which i think your whole confusion lies in
It doesn't, I can promise you it doesn't contradict shit. Wyrdsie just has a very specific view of this story and he's butthurt that the story isn't going that way.
you threat newdoom and classicdoom as if they are the exact same story, which they are simply not
I would like to say that I tried very hard to be as accurate and objective as possible - all theories or headcanon I put forward to explain plot points were color-coded and usually followed by a footnote explaining my reasoning and other potential explanations.
I personally still think the guide is the best way to get a complete, satisfying report of the entire story.
In short: another universe, doesn’t take place in the universe eternal does
it doesnt, it's in an alternate world with lil connection to either worlds
Doom 3 takes place in an alternate universe and is relatively unrelated to the rest of the games except through Hell and the Martian lore.
It's a different Earth, but it's being invaded by the same Hell as always.
The Martian Hero in 3's lore is almost certainly the Doomguy though, and the Martians similarly appear to be Argenta, which would mean the Argenta have colonized multiple universes.
I personally feel the Martian lore offers a great explanation as to how Doomguy got to Argent D'Nur in the first place, being that after 64 he went from Hell to Doom 3's Mars to help the Martians (Argenta), and from there took a teleporter to Argent D'Nur.
Reaching into personal stuff there, doom 3 devs definitely didn’t think of the argenta race during d3’s development lmao
the Argenta have colonized multiple universes.
i think it's more likely that the argenta who colonize universes just have multiple alternate versions across the universes
kinda like spiderman, most universes have one (or more) but they arent all the same one
What was the whole drama with the lead developer during d3 anyways? I can’t remember what happened
If we go by this theory, the Martian lore takes place roughly after 64 from Doomguy's POV, and then Doom 3 itself happens during the Third Age of Hell.
Sure thing.
I do believe the Martians are the Argenta. The entire plot points of ancient martian aliens being the progenitors of demon conflict + the human race and a chief savior among them comes from Doom 3 and was expanded upon in 2016 and Eternal.
Doom 3 could be considered the progenitor of most modern Doom plot points.
doom3 playable doomguy isnt the doomguy
Yes.
None of the playable characters in 3 are the Doomguy, just heroes from 3's universe.
The Martian Hero is almost certainly Doomguy, though. He was the savior amongst the Martians who used the Soul Cube to kill the demons invading Mars, allowing the Martians to disperse and colonize Earth to eventually become the human race.
probs in comatose at that hell tomb
Doom 3 insinuates the Martian Hero may have died, yet we never see his body. Only a tomb meant for him.
Logically: game devs did it for a cut and clear “this is THE OG GUY”.
Lore wise: no it doesn’t make any sense lmao
Common headcanon wise: he found armor from other soldiers during his fight in hell, or basically went back up to whatever moon was teleported into hell to rearm himself, and found previous iterations of the armor
If you follow my theory, yes, but it's not confirmed.
Yeah. Some believe the Martian Hero is the Slayer, as in he has his powers. I think the Martian Hero is Doomguy post-64, pre-Argenta.
I think that is the most logical way to explain the Martian lore and the plothole of how Doomguy got to Sentinel Prime. That's just me though.
Look, here's what you don't get. The lore is not real it's fantasy for a computer game right. So the old lore sucked.. so they say why don't we make doom guy cooler so he's like nearly a god, and he fighting actual gods and stuff like this. So they do that for doom 2016 the reboot. And then they try and somewhat maybe tie in the old games, but it's not the intention. Cause we making something else. Then you write a 200 page manuscript to meticulously tie the old together with the new game which has a total different philosophy of how doom guy is, so much that they defer to you cause they don't really care to tie it perfectly together, they making doom guy entirely different, and so transitional steps are irellevant. So when you miss that part and you focus on oh what was doom guy in old games and was he married and blabla.. it's irellevant. The fact is he now has super powers and rival even davoth himself. That's what's important for the new games. That slayer is super hero, very special should not be seen as average man, both humans and demons fear and respect him.
So whilst it's incredible you manage to tie the old lore and new lore together so it actually somewhat fits, that's certainly a big feat and congratulations with that. But i mean ultimately for how doom guy is in eternal that's how they wanted him to be for the reboot with understanding that the old version of who doom guy was in the 1994 game is kind of shit. And so by not understanding that, you miss the conclusion that he's basically davoths twin and all those metaphors, because you keep going back to old lore which is irellevant since new philosophy of what slayer is is in play, and saying well he can't be associated with anything like that cause old lore say he was just normal guy
I don’t see your point. What does any of what you’re saying have to do with anything?
Yeah, I'm gonna ignore you now, dude. Not getting into a battle of text walls with you.
Then you write a 200 page manuscript to meticulously tie the old together
fyi it's all of the lore, not just tying it up together
that's fine, what i say is impressive you write 200 pages tying lore together, so congrats with that, but it's not the intention to do so the philosophy behind the new games
Anyway, yeah, that is what I think when it comes to 3. Though there are other things that tie it to the modern games, like the Maledict and Betruger
So blocked for the sake of my sanity.
i have no idea why you are posting this huge walls just to say "new doom and old doom treat doomguy different" which, yeah they do. cause in one of them he is empowered
The Maledict seems very similar to the concept of Dark Lords and Archdemons and I believe it was either the Dark Lord of the Third Age or an Archdemon.
Which is eerily similar to the Imperatrix, which was the Dark Lord of the Fourth Age. And, like the Maledict, it fused with a human to gain physical form.
And then in Eternal you've got a castle in the Blood Swamps named after Betruger.
Also each generation of Doom games have been made by different people so of course they treat the main character differently. That doesn’t necessarily mean that it isn’t the same character or that there can’t be a unifying lore
^^^
in classic doom he was threated like just a good marine, cause he was
in newdoom he is treated like a god, cause he is.
The writers wished to make Doom a saga, an epic about one man and his perpetual war against Hell, rather than a disconnected series of stories very similar to one another.
In that regard IMO they succeeded.
I like that the lore works either way
I have a generally more positive view on Doom's lore than most. I think it is genuinely really fucking good for what it is - a cheesy, testosterone-fueled saga about violence and demons, with an emphasis on cool shit happening and a surprising amount of thought put into it.
I admire the work the writers did in tying the whole series together in spite of how messy it sometimes is.
You can treat it as a bunch of separate stories or as one continuous story and either way it will mostly make sense
Yeah
That’s actually hard
When you marathon all the main Doom games the thought and effort put into the lore hits much harder.
Yeah. There is actual thematic depth here that is lost on most.
Would make sense.
Martian hero is og doomguy anyway, for sure
Yeah
@azure oriole hey since you here:
Doom 3 calls the excavation site "site 3"
Doom 2016 begins in a "site 03".
Coincidence?
Both in Mars
Probably. They definitely aren't the same UAC.
Doom 3 UAC successfully solved the energy crisis with HydroCon. 2016 UAC is still working on it and uses Argent.
Ah right.
Still, it's food for thought. I replayed Doom 3 and 2016 back to back and almost peed myself when I saw the Site 03, lols
Haha yeah. I bet it is a reference.
The final arena there is pretty fun! Imo it's a pretty well-balanced master level
Yea this one starts introducing respawning heavy demons with a super heavy needing to be taken out.
Your flame belch and a grenade with fodder with help you out a lot. Save two bfg for the final arena, as well as at least two crucibles.
Now the Nightmare Extra life mode is some bullshit lol
Yeah I like mars core ml too, barring the extraneously long final arena
It's a really long level. I'm dreading the UN run because of a few tough spots
https://youtu.be/9YOmb9yIORE?t=433 this would be a good idea for console
What can a DualShock 4 do that an Xbox One controller can't? Flick stick and gyro aiming. See how DOOM Eternal SHOULD play on PlayStation and Switch. And see how we can combine Steam and JoyShockMapper for controls truly worthy of this frenetic game.

A few easy to f up spots yeah but not too bad otherwise
That fucking buff totem in goo specifically can go to hell
can u meathook a buff totem?
Nope but you can use the enemies to meathook yourself towards to totem
huh cuz i remember someone meathooking it
Mars core, the corridor just before you climb to the bfg
Yea by the time I get there the hell knight is hitting me like he has sock em boppers and then the fucking cyber mancubus makes it worse
I meathooked to it (flinging from an enemy) and then just used chaingun shield until I was out of goo
You know I never use the chaingun shield lol
I probably should
Fuck that part too. World spear ML is the hardest of the bunch
There's a tyrant + riot soldiers in goo fountain, no mancubus or screechers.
Mancubi and screechers are in base level
Very highly recommended for master levels yeah.
Don't rely on it though but it's really useful in places
In base level there is screechers and 2 mancubi
In master level you have first 2 revenants and soldiers, then tyrant and riot soldiers and mecha zombies
HELLO
ure
3 to 5 tries per hard encounter is reasonable for a master level released late in the game's life cycle though
would be a nice quality of life feature to have a difficulty rating next to each one in the ML menu
x stars out of 5 or something
Highly doubt any fixes coming but that would be nice
you mean doom 6 
I finna beat Cultist base on UN
Naturally I forgot to heat record before the last fight
who do you usually wanna target first in a stage? Probably the projectile demons, right?
if there's no way to break line of sight, then yeah
okie
also the heck is doomslayer lore? All I know is bad things happening on earth and Doomslayer is sent from idk where to beat everybody up
anyone got one of those fun "xyz game in five minutes" summary videos?
projectile focused enemies (pains, cacos, spiders, tyrants, mancs etc) don't really pressure unless you go to them so in a lot of arenas you can lure all the pressure enemies (whatever actively chases you down) away so the projectiles can't get to you
then you get to kill the pressure enemies without getting peppered by a million fireballs at the same time
ye
Cacos will hunt you down like a lion chasing it’s prey they are ferocious, especially in ultra nightmare runs
I never realized how dangerous they were until I started my ultra nightmare run
yeah, at about... a relaxed walking pace
Yup. I tried to get away from one after it chomped me and then I fell in a pit and died. Good thing it was the first level
Do people tend to do the first slayer gate on UN? I think it's the worst one imo considering the dread knights and how little you have
You can skip all slayer gates and still have enough weapon points for important mods
I think the first one is easy wrt the enemy spawns you encounter but super difficult considering at best you have a stock PB and Microwave Beam
No, dread knights do appear in the very first slayer gate. They don't appear anywhere else in the level though
It is the worst one yeah in that sense.
Dreads appear in super gore nest naturally and by then you have strong weapons etc
And at that point they're manageable
I just lock on rocket dread knights. Free glory kill
at that point in the game i'd be more afraid of the revvies in said gate
Even with various arena skips, a player can get lock on burst fully upgraded by they time they get LoB, which is really the only "important" weapon to upgrade.
If you also do the secret encounters + fights that don't get skipped in a typical/casual playthrough, you can also probably upgrade SSG and maybe Stickies.
Then once you get Dblade you can upgrade that.
So typically the Slayer gates as a whole are superfluous since they don't really give any advantage in terms of what can get upgraded, except maaaaaybe upgrading stickies earlier than normal.
PB doesn't really benefit from any of the upgrades if you do even basic quick swaps (let alone PB rocket or punch swaps). Unupgraded PB also outperforms MM most of the time even if MM was fully upgraded, so really the best use of weapon points is either sticky bombs, or saving for Lock On (and then SSG to get the SSG mastery)
the scariest part about dredges is a slam hitting you directly (not the damaging pool the slams leave, though you can't really afford to stand in it that early in the game) which is consistently avoidable by just walking away.
revenant lunges get progressively scarier the more you go above 60fps since they gain insane magnetism. their swipes will follow you across an entire room. even without that factor, the missiles hit you much more reliably than anything the two dredges can do. the missile damage combined with revenant swipes still being kinda threatening at 60fps makes them a much more potent run ender there
pretty sure dredge has at least one move that can delta correct a stupid amount, but i'm serious. they do barely anything in that gate.
Never realized the gameplay shift depending on over 60 until recently. It really is night and day
i mastered pb as the very first gun in my playthrough, is its mastery dmg bonus that irrelevant that its not even worth considering?
what the mastery changes, is that killing anything with a pb headshot now deals 400 damage worth of splash in a small radius around what you just killed. most fodder enemies die to that amount of damage, but the radius isn't huge, so it's just kinda nice as a cleanup tool.
I see, so it doesnt do anything to actually help kill heavies faster so its not worth going for in an UN run. can even just leave it blank if comfrotable with melee quickscoping?
for comparison, sticky headshots deal 700 damage worth of splash in a much bigger radius. i can think of a bunch of scenarios where pb mastery could theoretically save a run, but none of them ever actually happen. i wouldn't grab it during UN.
pb headshots deal a flat 500 damage to the target, with or without any upgrades.
you can probably get away with getting the upgraded walk speed when scoped in, but it barely makes a difference. the upgrades don't affect things like punch cancels or quickswaps at all.
yea i feel like i have been underrating sticky a bit. never put any points into it on my nightmare run. PB just feels really good to have that instant gratification of a kill vs sticky where its a small delay
there's a small gimmick with stickies that's kinda nice early game: you can force a sticky to deal 700 splash instead of the normal 350 by flame belching or dashing into whatever you just shot a sticky at. so for example you can do something like this to hell knights: pb > blood punch > sticky > dash in, dash back out
a sticky headshot deals 800 because you also get doubled impact damage, but that's not really worth going for since you only lose out on 50 extra damage.
wait how does the double splash damage work. is a stagger or burn gonna amplify dmg?
also what do you think about plasma rifle early on into an UN run, before ballista. I feel like heat blast is quite important especially for the eventual double sled hunter fight, think its worth to upgrade it to have an easier time, or nah?
stickies deal damage in two parts: on impact and on explosion. the impact deals 50 damage while the explosion deals 350, for a total of 400. sticky headshots double both so you get 800 damage, but you can get a sticky bodyshot to deal 750 damage if you flame or dash into the enemy after the sticky has landed, because for whatever reason both of those options are allowed to double the splash damage.
idk how the splash is applied exactly but on hell knights, pb > blood punch > sticky > double dash into knight is a guaranteed stagger
oh thats really good to know, had no idea that was a mechanic to make stickies do more dmg
Is left where it belongs, locked up 
No I’m with Argonaut on this. While they are slow, they can take shortcuts everywhere so it’s difficult to create distance, compared with ground demons.
Meathook or ballista boost away.
The unmaykr should be unmayde
Still prefer it over the bfg
People have kinks, I get that

Without gates can I still get Flaming Meathook almost immediately?
Yes
You can easily have 9+ points by the time you get ssg
I need to spend more time on the roof etc to make that easier.
I always farm to get Flaming Meathook, how do you guys get it on UN?
I always take this route:
Do exultia secret encounters but not slayer gate
That gives me just enough points to unlock quick lock on (6) and both ssg upgrades (9)
Meaning immediately once I get them
It's easy to get in cultist base already even without the slayer gate, just focus on killing as much enemies as possible with meathook ssg
Hello
Some people say they farm the respawning fodder in doom hunter bossfight to get ssg mastery but I never have to go as far.
Unlock it early dhb at the latest
Not you nutmilk. Don't you hate on the mcmaker
Are the dlcs worth it?
However if you wanted to you could also farm respawning prowlers there to get lock.on mastery quickly (mainly so you can do double slobs)
I didn't want you to day that cause now I gotta save up for em😭
I just find more fun to use than press to delete bfg
Damage is cool
oh
Exactly it, bfg feels like a superweapon.
Unmaykr feels like a buffed plasma rifle that steals bfg ammo 
Yeah. Don't get me wrong. I love the bfg but I try to limit the use if I feel like doing a clean up myself. That's where I like to use the unmaker
In short yes, long answer buy them already
I'm broke
I farm the tunnel of fodder/falling blades to get it. On Cultist Base.
To each their own.
I either use bfg if needed or neither at all.
By reloading checkpoint?
That's a good spot though yeah
I always try to kill as many of the mechas there as possible.
They are pretty good at getting minced by the blades
get money lol
I'm 15 lol
Year 1 pass is 50 % off in Steam atm
Probably similar sales for consoles too ongoing
Both dlcs for abt 15 USD well worth it
I'll probably see if I can get it for my birthday or sum
I’m torn between feeling like the BFG is cheating and yet wanting to keep it just in case. So I don’t use Unmaykr
It is 10% off for xbox so I might get it
You nailed it with just in case. That's what I see it as haha
hmm i just read something interesting on a youtube comment. is it true that you can cheese an UN run by having the extra life rune and if you trigger it you just alt f4 which reloads the checkpoint. effectively giving infinite tries at any level?
It's true. And while it's typically frowned upon, as long as the person isn't "bragging" about completing UN that way, there's nothing inherently wrong with doing it per se.
There's many ways you can cheat but it would be stupid to do so, what's the point of an achievement if you didn't actually achieve it.
Shoot it
Easiest is to just sticky bomb the ground while running away from it, the splash damage will kill it.
Grenades for the dogs seems excessive compared to sticky bombs, but they'd also work
if you want to be safe of getting hit by try plasma or chaingun, it might run past the grenades and you might misfire with pb and not hit it
Ballista or SSG when he flashes green, then swap to the other weapon and shoot him with it. If you're fast you can do 3 shots, but at least 2 should be consistent
Do that 3-4 times and hell be dead
for the wolf plasma is very reliable and a quick shift weapon like the heavy cannon
The shotgun weapon mod
try and jump a little from side to side and keep a slight distance from him otherwise he will zoom around you like that. And don't use the shield chaingun much or he launches wolf
Sticky bomb doesn't stagger the Marauder, nor does full auto
Only base fire shotgun does.
(in terms of Shotgun specifically I mean)
there's two ways you can falter him without him going green, is micromissiles on ground next to him and stickies, then you can shoot ballista at his feet to stagger him assuming he has taken aoe damage
yes whilst he's falter yes, but he quickly recovers so you don't have much time for combos
you can one cycle him if you are really fast and very precise with combos, but it's quite difficult and requires very good timing and using various tactics. But really in general try and focus on just keeping a certain distance so he doesn't charge you or zip around you, and hit him when he's green with some combos, and take care of wolf with plasma or whatever you prefer
for the one cycle ones it's like you need to have perfect switching and drop grenades and do many things in perfect timing basically. You can do that using various combos like you can include punches and plasma bursts and grenades and other things like that.
so just focus on like killing him normally instead over several times of him going green.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyTZExBZAmU here you can see example of using micromissiles to falter him with feet ballista after doing so.
During a very fruitful conversation with Undeceiver https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpQYmbN9rtkkNb_4ZE1N7eg about the feet-ballista, we start to wonder what amount of damage was actually needed to trigger the falter on a Marauder. As it turns out (Undeceiver had the idea first: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9vQK6gK2y4), a sticky bomb splash ...
so my game is crashing at the start menu and i can't play at all
Can you unlock BATTLEMODE milestones in private matches?
Hello chat
Ice Bomb will instakill the Marauder Wolf.
Yes
Besides blood bath, I’d recommend doing them in private s for your own sanity’s sake
Have your Super Shotgun ready and stay far back. When he starts running towards you, that's when he'll probably do the green flash and swing at you. That's when you hit him with the Super Shotgun, which will stun him, and give you time to shoot him again or hit him with a Blood Punch.
He only ever summons his Wolf if he takes gunfire to his shield, so don't shoot him head on, he'll take no damage from it.
That's the idea.
You wouldn't help me out with them, would you? I have all but 4 done.
Thank Christ for that.
Once I've got them unlocked I can focus on the rest of the single player ones and not worry anymore.
If you like a challenge, play Part One.
If you like a power trip, play Part Two.
Both have annoying new enemies and badass music+lore+cutscenes.
Both are great.

tbh the father/vega is a big softy
Play both
Davoth is a big softy too
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJoyFx0ZpSU if you are having a hard time with the campaign sometimes, don't sweat it, Hugo Martin has a hard time with it too and he help make the game.
Hugo releasing Argent Energy xD
I will upload MSGN pt2 and his new DOOM 2016 livestream moments soon
Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLd7Y2_9l9hgzrPU7qdlru8zoOgxAUVZkL
Let me know in the comments shall I upload more Hugo & Josh fun moments from DLC 1 & Campaign Stream?
Doom Eternal Master lvl Super Gore Nest - Game Director o...
yes
'i want to say bad words josh' haha
yes
should i delete C:\AND
Retried super gore nest master level ultra violence after giving up after 5 & half hours. Tonight killed it in an hour and a half and even beasted the double marauders first try! So stoked!!
so i can get more storage for doom 2016
how big is it? i forgot, haven't played it in a long time.
68 gb
oh shit the entire franchise bundle is on sale right now. -78% discount
yes
Yeah it's got a lot of high res textures and stuff, huge files. You playing it for first time?
amd? no that sounds like driver files of sorts don't do that. Probably if you have that little space i'd really just uninstall eternal and play doom 2016 and then reinstall eternal again when you're satisfied with playing enough 2016
eternal took 1 day to download
oh i know it take a while, what i do is i just leave it turned on overnight if it's slow. But yeah, i guess you can delete some of the old driver files, but it's better not to just start deleting all kind of stuff you not sure of what does.
hi everyone sooo, i'm trying to get into doom eternal but i'm having the boot up "teleporting" issue where my game just doesn't want to load past that point and was wandering if anyone else here had this issue or smth similar and could help me out
i deleted the other lesser files and i reached 51 gb but i degraded it to 31 because i download a game
wat
hehe, you running out of space and then you download another game 😄
for some reason a game who is 21/19 gb wnt free up space
it only gave me 5 gb to the 50 gb
try and validate your files via steam, and also set in steam settings for game +com_skipIntroVideo 1
sometimes you need to delete some files manually after uninstall depending on the game. Try and find the folder and just delete it, if you are sure you have uninstalled correctly.
just completed doom eternal. feelin' good
ty for the response, i will try this once the game is reinstalled again and if i'm still having problems i'll let u know
how
i uninstalled the game but idk how to delete the files
nice
Bro why we have to take the easy way out of killing God? I wanted some epic battle with the father
you cant kill a god with there sphere you can only kill a god in its physical form thats the reason why doom guy destroyed the fathers sphere the father is just a presence
meaning the father could only watch talk whisper
I count it as killing God because it's fun to say that doom slayer killed God, Satan, Jesus, the holy spirit, and destroyed heaven
urdak aint heaven its a corrupted heaven
the devil is actually the creator of the father
I can barely beat the base campaign on ultra-violence. So that means I should play TaG 2 on nightmare.
plot twist the devil made the universe thats why hell is connected to all dimensions
I know, I've beaten every dlc and I know almost all the lore
Give me a question about the lore, I want to try to answer it. I wanna test my knowledge
davoth created the maykrs to find the secrets of immortality but got betrayed because the maykrs thought that the minds of people would be corrupted thats why davoth became the devil because of hes anger it corrupted hell/jakked
when was doom guy became doom slayer
