each level has 2, I wondered if it was the doll since you hadn’t gotten the cell yet
Yeah right at the end when you speak to Vega & Samuel
There's a pair of crates
and a vent
room with the Argent Cell, to the left of it
in that area?
Yep see that platform that's alone
facing the argent cell door from the entrance, go left. Climb boxes into a vent
yeah
To the left of the yellow marker?
Awesome! Thanks guys! <3
trying to do a 100% savegame :D
Codices too?
you’ll want 11 weapon points before GKing the spider with everything maxed
Like 16? If you load a file to go back
Why 11?
can u go back and do stuff u forgot later?
Yeah
Yep, you can go back to previous levels
11 weapon points is how many you have left over if you do everything in game and spend them all on weapons @dusky raptor , pre spider (is when UN 100% checks since it can’t load the file after the GK), though she gives another 5-6 upon death
So if you go back, you have more
Depends. I like a mix of health and ammo. Also note later on if you decide to save ammo cells, they also refill your BFG
welcome! Though it’s nice early on to have ammo too
Oh nice nice
Is it worth the 100% run? I've been trying to but I find myself in super risky situations when grabbing quests like "To Be Knighted"
For UN this is
i rly want to try 100% UN before eternal comes out ^^
It's a lot easier said than done, I'm just trying to finish UN normally and I can't get passed Argent Tower

Woot!
I’d say do regular UN first. And yeah to be knighted can be troll when you have the short stagger knight bug.
But what’s nice is the rune glitch where you can wear any slot whenever 👀
Ahhh yeah, this is the shit. Falling right back into the groove.
Also you wanna talk about short stagger knight? How about Drop Dead Stagger Knight?
I had to happen while working on that challenge. One of the staggered HK's just dropped dead for no reason.
Awww shied, Equipment Power rune.
Oh here we go bois.
Yeah I’d say do a more pure run first
You can make one in theory with snap maps
I hope they add an endless mode in eternal
Have I got news for you

Hey guys! Nice seeing this community! Just got the game on PS4, it is nice but I heard of the glitches and bugs related to the trophies and I'm kinda bummed. It is possible to get the Platinum?
I believe I found a glitch in the 2nd mission where I had all the secrets completed but I didn't find them all
you can do platinum
only the multiplayer part can be tricky if you live in a area where not many players are playing the MP
where can i post vids about doom 2016
showroom @elder meadow
ty
no problem
ok i posted what i found funny
is it normal to play doom eternal music while playing doom 2016
yes cuz all of mick gordons music sounds the same
Paddlefruit#5339 yeah the demon prison in the fortress of doom is an endless mode from what I can tell
would prefer something else myself
like a horde mode where you can upgrade between waves
I want that
@stark lintel it’s not endless sadly. Unless it has an extra endless feature it does end
We need massive endless killrooms in Eternal
The gameplay footage seen so far makes it look like an ideal fit
@noble moat oh ok that sucks
i like to do no highlight on glory kills
Doom 2016 was great but the glory kills got more and more repetitive
gotta aim at the body part for glory kills
Half the glory kills were the same but directional
Punch punch in front
Punch punch on side
Punch punch diagonal
Punch punch behind etc
Granted sum were cool
Eternal, on the other hand like 90% of these look 
legs tho
id say double what you said, and then include the top down one
there might be two top down ones for back and front
Anyone notice the scrapped Doom 4 game
The shotgun is the same as the stock shotgun in 2016?
mhm. Ye supershotgun actually surprised me from the original concept
yup, I noticed that
those are just the only weapon models we know of that were reused
I suspect all of them are
the plasma gun looks similar to Doom 3's, after all
there's also the reload animations
which in the case of the gauss cannon, indicate that it was a rifle at first
Oof yeah based on the video trailer I saw I am glad Doom 4 got canceled
It looked like it would be a generic COD type game
Thankfully they turned it into a god-tier game
Indeed
Indeed!
Indeed
Indeed!
yeah it would probably have ended up similar to Wolfenstein 2009 mechanically
a few, yeah
in fact, there's other homages in other tracks
one of them even has Doom 3's theme in it
I never played the original Doom games (yet) but I know the iconic one...I'll try and find a video
IMO PSX Doom's theme works way better as a main theme
The first song that plays here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cixW6rogZ48
Doom (1993) was developed and published by id Software. Doom II: Hell on Earth (1994) was developed by id Software and published by GT Interactive. The soundtracks were composed by Bobby Prince.
Tracklists:
[Doom]
- At Doom's Gate (0:00)
- The Imp's Song (1:51)
- Dark H...
if you mean the E1M1 theme (At Doom's Gate), then yes
At Doom's Gate is meant to get you pumped up, but I feel PSX Doom's theme represents Doom as a whole rather than just the action part
Oh great :D
Music from the PSX port of Doom.
I had to put this here, because the video title isn't enough for some.
Yes, this is the opening track, with the logo and the flames and whatnot.
it even has the same name: https://youtu.be/j05hzwQf8pA

That grinds my gears, I'm kinda triggered now
@stone matrix In the game’s options
I’ve heard it be called New Doom. Never have I heard it be called Doom 1.
I was born 2003 before i even knew about the other 3 DOOMs and even I know to call it doom 2016 it's just commen sense doom 1 like are you crazy my man
Wait how do you not know about doom 1993 it’s like one of the most popular games ever
It’s like super famous and there’s a ton of memes about it
Um achtually Wolfenstein was first
Wasn't that just a reskin of DOOM?
Like it had the same things as doom but you fought a robo hitler at the end
Wolfenstein came out before doom i believe
Yep, by 1 year
Or less
But they were both by ID
Wolfensteins og release was 1992, but didnt come out on arcade until 93
It was only on DOS
@harsh relic wolfenstein wasn't a reskin
it used early idtech 1
it had no support for vertical stuff
or shadows
or stairs
or slopes
etc
Then it went through consoles and even gameboy until 2016 when it was released on android
@elder meadow it's not a reskin reskin, but very similar.
Like they're almost the same game
thanks for paraphrasing what i just said
Wolfenstein wasn’t the very first (catacombs 3d etc was earlier) but it started the wave and doom exploded it
Even back then, a mere year between game releases brought a lot of upgrades
Google “catacombs 3D”
I don’t even think it was the first, but it was earlier
Windows 3D maze hype 👀
Hehe doom (2016)
Earliest one traces back to 1973
https://www.geek.com/games/the-complete-history-of-first-person-shooters-1713135/
I REMEMBER THAT TANK GAME ON THE ARTICLE!
Ok I’m starting to keep off topic of doom 2016 heh
There's a console in DooM 2016, right?
it even resets your FOV aggressively if u go over 130 -.-
I was just gonna ask if I could toggle collision but I fixed my issue the long way by replaying the level before continuing, via mission select.
I hadn’t played 3 so when I found super turbo turkey puncher 3 I was slightly confused
Super turbo turkey puncher is also in 2016 as a secrect arcade machine
I know that’s what i was referring too
so uh. how do i get good at this game 
i want to do a Nightmare run but i'm struggling with Hurt Me Plenty
@ebon forge for me 'keep moving' isnt that great if a strat. Know where every health, ammo, and secret is because you're going to need every upgrade point you can get. Also know what can kill an enemy the fastest and what's effective at what
keep moving but don't make your movement predictable
^
And I highly reccomend getting hazard predator upgrades max asap so you donnt get instantly game ended by your own bullets
Strafing is also great for enemy projectiles, melees, and environments
Pinkies and mancubus rockets are great examples
And if you're on PC keep your crosshair on am enemy at all times or in the direction of an enemy and move with your fingers more. This can be hard so dont worry about being bad
Learning the environment is needed for this^
But if your on console your best bet is to keep moving and shoot enemies when theres enough distance.
And take advantage of verticality, as some enemies cannot use or are poor at it
I know that's alot but having to restart if you die on un makes it almost impossible for me without this stuff

Theres also multiple secrets and 'tricks' to skip or quickly advance in un
im probably not going to grind for UN tbh i just want to do a run on Nightmare
Grinding demons to paste 

Work on your aim and reflexes
They are crucial to surviving and taking out enemies
And remember that combat only gets easier as you kill demons
Don’t push yourself too hard to be good. Once you can beat the game on Ultra Violence you are playing the game on normal mode
But there’s nothing wrong with being better 
I thought I was steamrolling on UV but now I just beat Tower and am in Kadinger rn and it's whooo boy I am sweating
I feel myself getting better and reaction times are better so that's good
The Big Red Horned boi that I forgot his damn name
Baron
ahh yes Baron
I forgot it too 
xd
But kadinger isnt too bad once you get passed the big demons
oh yeah well i can beat Resource Operations on hurt me plenty 
Whomever wants to play on ps4 via part. Holler at me later on
anyone else playing online ever play with a guy named aimbot killer?
Kadinger UN is hardcore... the level is plagued with arenas full of demons
Its fun tho
fav map of them all... and maybe argent d'nur
it took me like 20 attempts to get the Kadinger UN run
mostly because of crappy keyboard bindings
Question: is there photo mode on Playstation 4?
for which game
Doom 2016
yes
on ps4?
There is?
Okay thank you very much!
this is news to me
Welp, another day, another dose of Doom 2016. Time for a-hinger-diner-kadinger sanctum
does anyone else constantly gauss cannon the hell razer out of spite?
U wanna see a REAL LAZER
yes
Siege point blank
i use siege mode every shot i take with that gun
a man of culture I see
I hate the Sweep The Leg challenge. I swear half the time that I go for the leg it ends up being the back glorykill instead. The hitbox is fucked for that.
i have an opinion but i'm not sure i should say it
So much hype in your name it almost made me scream
you're welcome
eh, i rounded down
ik
just let the hype flow through you
oh it is
Anyone have advice with getting the Sweep the Leg challenge?
i am going to say something true yet unwanted
you have been warned
2 weeks and 3 days 
since you've decided to muddy the hype with your lack of rounding, i will say it without remorse
samuel hayden is thicc and nobody is talking about it
Why are you guys talking about this here when #doom-eternal exists : x
exactly
Hayden: i only made it clap for the good of humanity
^^^
That wasn't a statement that was a question
that's it, i'm grabbing my sketch book

Actually its 100 days until eternal ;-;
So quick question for anyone who can answer. For some reason when I am playing now whenever I go to reload after a death or load a new level the game will freeze. This can be solved every time by ctrl + alt + del and then going back into the game. Idk why this happens and I can't find much to help. I've reinstalled twice, completely emptied the folder after uninstalling. I'm not using Vulkan cause I thought that may be a problem. I'm at a loss.
Halp pls, I can't do leg sweep on hell razer for 'Sweep the Leg' challenge. I hate this.
Aiming at the leg just makes him push the HR onto his back and then stomp head.
Which doesn't count.
U aiming at the right leg?
Yes I am aiming at the right leg. Most of the time his right leg is fucking tucked in so it's not possible to do it
aim at the right leg and come at him from the right side
@old onyx for the sweep the leg challenge, the best thing to do is think “is he facing right”, and if so, look at the leg and GK from his side. Any video of attempts?
Don’t think left leg right leg. Gets confusing. Just think “he’s looking to the right”
right is right
he has to be looking to your left tho
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UklXB8z4-H8
oh shit you can do it from either side
Perform 4 ''sweep the leg'' glory kills on the Hell Razer (attack right leg).
This challenge can be quite tricky but I found the easiest way to do it is to kill off all demons in an area except for the Hell Razer and then with the Assault Rifle, chip down the Hell Razer's hea...
i dont think i've ever done it from the left
Lol no way
i stand in from of him and aim for the left one
If it’s right leg he would need to be looking to your right
yep! That’s his right leg. Your left
just done it a few minutes ago
but I haven’t done from the front
i have only ever swept the razer's left leg
your left, his right
from your POV at the front it looks like left, but from his POV it’s his right
Actually its 100 days until eternal ;-;
@noble moat
100 days? o.0
for switch maybe but we don’t know yet
ohh
its actually forever because doom is eternal
Argent Facility atm :3
I may run a Legacy Nightmare run if I have time before Eternal, it has some fun skips. And nice!
legacy = no major glitches. But there’s still some big skips
*i meant his left
https://i.imgur.com/DFSvTOA.jpg
Kadingir a few seconds ago :3
yeees 
no what im saying is apparently you can do it from either side
are you doin codices too?
And are you sure? I’ve not seen much if any footage from the other side
i'm 100% certain you can do it from the razer's left
How easy is it to one hundred percent doom 2016
You can go back if so. And sonic just depends
UN 100% is a lot easier than 0% or PONE
Aight
you can see it in the quakecon eternal gameplay too, same glory kill but with the blade
NM 0% and PONE is hard enough. Only one man has done those on UN. And that’s Byte
I was there for Quakecon last year funny enough
Bet that was fun
It was
I’d have to fly there
I live close to it
Lucky!! That’s sick
Ikr
Did you play DE
That is really cool
It was
tokyopunchout hugged me at Bethesda Game Days
I’d love to go to a doom based event and meet people and play stuff
yea its hard
And sometimes I’m sketch about flying. It’s the takeoff, depending where you leave from, that feeling yeeeeeesh
The doom eternal devs where super nice
And the cosplayers where not bad apart from a 30 year old guy with a beer gut dressed in a cheerleader outfit
Ok yeah the trick is to try for the side of the leg, not from behind like the game suggests.
Side is what I’ve always done
I was recently playing doom 2016 again and when you meet Samuel Haden for the first time if you stay outside of the doorway and shoot him he says something
indeed
Indeed!
You can get your gun back out (but can’t switch) by mantling outside. Also with photo mode you can be outside the office and skip a small part of the cutscene
There, Kadingir Sanctum complete 100%. I am most of the way towards Double Trouble, so 
can someone help me boost my xp per match in doom 2016 mp? i just need 2 achievements to 100% doom 2016
am i just stupid or is this a dopefish rune thingy?
https://i.imgur.com/j1T1Kbg.png
Loading screen from hell btw
Lmao, actually kinda does
Muhahahaha, Doubletrouble! It begins...!
That really does look similar. Teeth and all!
And there's Ultimate Cooling. The two really broken masteries are all mine.
Welp I just finished playing Doom 2016 and boy was it fun
Gr8
You watched GmanLives latest video I see, he points out that symbol is dopefish
Well, there's today's dose of Doom 2016. I did not exactly enjoy myself, between annoying rune trials, Kadingir Sanctum making a hard argument for being the worst level in 2016 with it's challenges and several exploration-related cheap deaths at Destroyed Argent Facility.
I am very glad Eternal is not going to force more Rune Trials on me.
They're definitely optional
I skip em all the time 👍
got my first slayer medal ayyy

I didn't know!! XD
Yes but 100%
somebody know where this guy got this footage from?
scenes of Doom 2016 at the developmental stage.
nope but ive seen it elsewhere
i only found doom 4 1.0 prototypes
this guy's the only one that made this footage public on youtube as far as i can find
and im pretty sure its not "deleted". It wes definitely a concept save
No
I've seen it before in other videos, but not like, directly this in the title
Like development talks
honestly i kinda wanted to play call of doom (scrapped doom 4) just to see how it plays
same
probably really bad 👀
even then
i wanted to have a taste of it
or get my hands on some developer test builds of doom 2016 heheheheh
the ones from the video i sent earlier
some of those things are in the normal version?
How much do you hate when the doors to backtrack a bit close without a warning? I've resetted Advanced Research Complex four times in a row right now, cause I need those trophies about runes and praetor suit upgrades.
I've never had a problem hmm
Never missed a praetor token? Or an upgrade?
it's pretty annoying yeah
Oh fuck off Vega...
Not everyone has your skill level though. You can stop flexing now.
hmm?
I backtrack often in doom levels to get the stuff I missed
It's a little BS imo to come in here and be like "well i never backtrack dood"
As if you're supposed to instantly just know where everything is.
but its true. I always go forward and never look back. If I missed something, I know I missed it and thats it. But actually yes, I know where most stuff is
That's not acceptable for some people though.
It's not skill, its just memorization
Alastor is one of those people too
I'm sure it isn't, but d16 is built so that you go forwards and cant come back, thats all
Me too, just a little.
I somehow missed like 1 battle in level 3...
Not all the time. There's plenty of points where you can backtrack to find stuff, especially in Argent Facility(Destroyed)
Foundry let's you crawl all over it until you get to the very end
i think resource ops lets you explore the entire level even after hayden has talked to you and given you the argent cache
mhm, theres like 3 levels I can think of right now that are full of just crossroads
Yeah, Resource Ops lets you backtrack all the way back and get anything you might have missed. Adv Research does not. If you forgot it, start over.
should i try battle mode
yes
Campaign comes first.
Battle Mode would essentially be Doom's equivalent of Quake Champions, thanks to the fact that the alternative skins are essentially Canon now.
working on a snapmap which is based on battle-mode but your just facing 2 bots with more health, but i will make a multiplayer one where its actually player vs player
Nightmare Legacy is a tough category to speedrun, just tried it tonight
there’s a lot of big skips, but you basically do the run with minimal upgrades
just a couple handfuls of weapon points, 3 field drones (explosive shot, micro missiles, siege in laz), handful of praetor tokens, no runes
Here's the thing about 'Call of DooM'.
Even if it might've been a bad game because it had the DooM title.
There's always the chance it still would've been a good game under another.
It's like how DooM 3 isn't considered a 'good' game.
By all accounts, it is a good game, but it's not what people wanted in a DooM title.
2016 is.
how the hell do i pronounce "Argent D'nur"
do i say it like
Ourgehnt DehNour
or Ourgehnt Danir
or Ourgehnt Duhnerr
etc
R-gent De Nur
Kadingur Sanctum is latin so it's easy to know how to pronounce it (i can speak latin)
I have a friend that is a huge fan of Doom (and also loves the soundtrack) yet he didn't know who Mick Gordon was until I told him about a week ago
Random but crazy imo
you guys think i can beat it again but on nightmare before eternal arrives?
while managing hw at the same time?
Maybe.
just depends how much time you can put to it
Is beating the game again on ultra nightmare worth it?
Or is it a mode only if i truly hate myself
||I'm really glad that Doom guy backed up vega before killing him||
||I'm really glad that Doom guy backed up vega before killing him||
@elder meadow
He is always angry but not heartless
Very true
Doom Slayer has so much character and he didn’t even make a noise in D16
So I heard a theory for this somewhere but I have no idea if it's true
But is the Doom Marine from Doom 3 the Doom Slayer?
As in, is Doom 2016 technically a sequel to Doom 3
Despite ID software saying it's a reboot
I doubt it since the doom marine from 3 is back on Mars at the end
But what if something happened between the games
That’s a bit of a reach, you could say that for all the doom games arguably
But it can't be the doom marine because the slayer is over a thousand years old
the marine and slayer are different i think
The characters that show less character are the best characters
Question of the day who would win a fight doom slayer or kratios
yes
the marine and slayer are different i think
whistles casually
DS got range advantage
Well kratos has his axe
but, gun
Anyone who completed the campaign on "normal" difficulty or did a casual playthrough
Go for the Nightmare 100% run. I can assure you it is a hell lot of fun! (no pun intended)
It is like a complete new game or at least experience, challenging and rewarding.
And you will be very proud of yourself for every level you completed by doing every challenge and found every secret, token etc.
And its not just that, then all the rune challenges
it just feels so good mastering all that stuff ❤️
So guys and girls if you are not sure if this is something u wanna try, i can say: Go for it! Its amazing! 
I've tried it, and I just got angry.
I didn't feel accomplished when I cleared a level, I just felt tired.
UN isn’t for everyone, I usually quicksave like crazy in classic doom so I never thought I’d try it
Once you clear NM with a low death count you think “on a good day, it could happen”, that’s what I waited on before I started
Nightmare is never something I will clear on a low death count. Or clear period. I completed Foundry and decided it was not for me.
I'm never gonna go up to people and say "You must do Nightmare, it's fun!™️"
Because there's plenty of people who are not gonna be able to deal with NM.
nightmare is fun if you enjoy that kind of thing. Personally I'll only ever go up to Ultra Violence unless a trophy says otherwise.
Ooohh Woohh
What’s this
A key advantage the console versions of Doom 2016 enjoy over the PC version is the implementation of dynamic resolution scaling - the ability to adapt resolution on the fly to tap out GPU resources at all times, delivering the highest pixel counts possible. But the code does...
This is a weird omission from pc ver
dynamic res scaling is a nice thing
Indeed
Indeed!
NM gets easier after the first few levels, but it just depends what ya want outta the game
Ok so anyone have suggestions on when to try for the Thread the Needle challenge in lazarus labs?
which one is that again?
Lazarus labs, kill 8 enemies in one shot.
that's when you get the bfg right?
This is the level after getting the BFG.
I already tried it in the first arena and somehow I didn't get the challenge even though I absolutely meatshotted a shitload of enemies
oh. Wait how did i manage that challenge? I know I did it but how is another question entirely
There’s a room a bit later on with an open flat space and a LOT of unwilling
Use the railgun
Pinkies join the fun later on
siege mode.
ah i remember now after looking it up you kite a bunch of possessed at the bottom of an elevator into the right spot and then fire a bfg shot
@old onyx when you drop down the first elevator at the start of the level, I jump and shoot it down that hallway
final arena could also work with the million imps around!
Yeah i'll have to go with the final arena
Have you tried that first hallway
Too late
How far in are ya now
Approaching the second arena I think
Where is the classic level secret in here tho?
My memory is a little bad
After the cathedral
you pull the lever before riding up that elevator that requires a switch. Drop down
echoes? 👀 I must have missed those
I remember now
you could try that room before the final drop down
In the 'cathedral' the UAC employee echoes are doing hell rituals
if it’s NM and final arena doesn’t work you can load checkpoint
Ohh yea that
There we go. Thread the Needle is check.
Time to play some Demon Destruction.
I.....think I just fucked myself out of the classic map
oof
I hate backtracking blockers.
I rode the elevator and don't see a way to send it back down now that I see where the classic map is
Ah wait no there it is. Phew.
i accidentally did a glory kill door clip at the end of argent tower
pro skills
So ah where are the two rune trials? I only see one on the map, even with the third exploration upgrade unlocked for the automap, where it auto-fills.
Yeah there's the saving throw trial
.....I didn't miss my chance to get Rich get Richer did I.....oh fuck...
I did. 

That's going to be a replay.
!Vega
You can go back and grab it @old onyx , then just dip outta the map I believe
so just play up to that point
you can even skip the first arena with a gauss boost
Eugh no, much much too late.
Time to break the game over my knee now tho
There it is. Now to do the final step, so I can break the rest of this game over my knee.
it will break you back
Got it. Rich get Richer 2.
electric chainsaw boogaloo
Electric Chaingun Boogalo, more like.
Very nice. What way did you master it? There’s a cool trick in the slime pits of TR to do it
Yea you can use siphon and the acid pools to quickly top it off
Naw, I just went back into Lazarus labs and did the ol' cheesy Micromissile self-harm.
The first arena has more than enough armor shards to do the job.
I was 2 short of the goal for powerup, then I noticed the one at the end of Argent tower and wasn't fast enough to kill 2 and finish it 
😔
What's everyone's favorite level?
Advanced Research Facility.
Foundry feels really dynamic
yeah
VEGA Centeral Processing.
It's down and dirty combat with a gorgeous backdrop
ARF is my favorite. VEGA Complex is great, but this thing has a solid structured plot, and culminates in you acquiring the BFG, which is excellent.
I love that one too
Kadingir for me, I like the desolate style, the music, and the Cacos and Barons appearing for the first time
Too bad I don’t know how to clip out of samuels lecture
Somehow I know someone was gonna bring up Kadingir. I hate Kadingir.
It's fine if you're not trying to 100%.
But in terms of gameplay, probably Argent Facility and Foundry a bit more, since you have some flexibility in objective orders
Makes it feel a bit more like a classic level where you have to backtrack sometimes
My least favourite is probably Lazarus, too tight with so many damned Imps 
And very linear
That damn imp room
The actual layout of the whole level is really cool when you look at it, but it's just arena connected by hallway in terms of gameplay
Yeah
So like a design point of view it looks cool, I just don't like the way it plays as much
And the unskippable cruicible cutscene that screams in your ear
I like the crucible cutscene. What I did not like, was the cutscene when you are going from upper Lazarus to lower Lazarus.
That one never bothered me, but only because I have a decent PC so loading times are good
I fucking hated the area after the train in VCP
When I see it on console, it's annoying though since it repeats like three times 
it'd probably what I'd go to for an example on 2016's bad sound mixing
Cutscenese are just extra time to grab some food
how the fuck was I supposed to know a Baron was coming up behind me?
Oh yeah the elevator scene is even worse for lazarus
Dude the train part is honestly a great example of why eternal mechanics were so needed lol
I don't think Barons even have footstep sounds
Demons warping in spontaneously would make it so that all of your positioning was bad no matter what
A lot of the fight relies on you using BFG instead of just good movement
And yeah the barons are strangely quiet
the only sounds I know from the barons are the loud thumps when a fireball hits something/they pounce and hit the ground
Foundry is my favorite layout
but VEGA or D'Nur has my favorite fights
I hate the layout of foundry
Their fireballs sound like giant rubber balls it’s actually kinda comical
VEGA train has rhyme and reason to it
kill 2 barons, 2 cyber manc spawn in, when the 2nd is staggered, summoner comes in, when she’s dead, the final trail mix assortment comes in
It’s a cereal box of “Oops! All Demons” cause it’s Variety is the Spice of Death out there.
Just redownloading doom 2016, so hyped to play it again in the lead up to eternal!!!
I've been playing the MP a lot recently, actually kind of like it tbh
I'm mostly doing it to get the two achievements I have left at this point though
I've been wanting to play the MP on stream
A key advantage the console versions of Doom 2016 enjoy over the PC version is the implementation of dynamic resolution scaling - the ability to adapt resolution on the fly to tap out GPU resources at all times, delivering the highest pixel counts possible. But the code does...
This mod works fairly well
Why would you uninstall doom in the first place
Increases screen tearing tho
I keep Doom 2016 uninstalled because even though I love the game, it’s like 90gbs
And I almost never play MP or SnapMaps
On pc and consoles except switch. It’s a level editor creation tool
player made creations, using tools made by id
You can make and play player created MPs
allows people to make whole new gamemodes and game logic
this has happened to me twice
1st time the mastermind glitched out and did a 180 after it was on like one health so i couldnt do any damage, second time an imp charge shotted me from behind on the last arena out of nowhere
Damn not seen that glitch before. It does have a weird invulnerability stage just before it becomes fully crippled, but after that I never saw such a thing 
i'd literally never seen it turn around on the final stage like that, it caught me completely off guard and then i died in all those random undodgeable lasers from its ass 
Yeah they can be pretty hard to dodge since it spins around, but usually it doesn't spin that crazy
I basically take the cutscenes as time to do my taxes
thanks ID for not getting me in trouble with the IRS
The spider glitch? Where if you kill the pillar as she picks it up or somethin
doomguy (2016) is a simp
change my mind
if he were a simp he wouldn't have killed olivia
true true
This is coming from a generic halflife 1 player spawn token
maybe sam is a simp
Doomslayer literally spent billions of years in hell murdering demons
he is the biggest thing AWAY from a simp
he's only a simp when compared to doom eternal slayer
but they're the same guy
doom 2016 on a controller without aim assist is tough! With it on it’s such a crazy difference.
I’m over at my in laws on their Xbox, they have game pass, turns out it’s free now on game pass? It wasn’t a few weeks ago
they are the same guy but two years apart
You're just here to shitpost ain'tcha
Nah cuz possessed loud af
Not you, info_player_start I mean
Their agility makes them real nasty to deal with, for sure.
I was playing on nightmare with a bud on a call, i go in to play, and it feels off, turns out the difficulty went down to hurt me plenty, on the 7th level on our first go at the game. So im back at the second gore nest.
been playing doom 2016 on nightmare for practice before doom eternal
Im on the argent tower level, that arena in the center before you start climbing it where the mancubus is introduced is so hard holy shit
There is an invuln artifact iirc....?
In the one above it, that ones a quad arena
Don’t kill off the first manc right away, it’ll spawn in more. Stun him or just run off to the side, grab the quad his jumppad . Then a manc will spawn in beside you on that platform. wreck him and keep going
Grabbing powerups in arenas at the end or when you’ve taken hits is beneficial for the full heal, but this one is good at the start. Also to consider if you can nearly finish the arena by the time the powerup is finished, depending if you have the suit upgrade, which you basically can by then even if you fill up environment
@fickle dew hope that helps! ^^^
I did itttt I saved the mancubus for last
Been practicing on ultra nightmare for doom eternal its easy but just fuck pinkys always assholes
They give ya da boop
Anyone with the switch version? I've read switch doesn't get snapmap builder but can download from other creators. Can anyone confirm?
switch is ass. $300 to play at 30fps? no thanks especially when I got my xbox one x for 250 and it can run 4k 60fps
Controller play is HARD especially without aim assist
i mean, xbox one x was realeased at 500 no?
@elder meadow It's not true 4K and it can only do 60fps on some titles, not all.
@frigid pecan the switch does 30fps on all titles with low-med graphics settings
That's beside the point. Nintendo has never claimed to be cutting edge in terms of graphical fidelity. They have their own style and shtick that works for their branding.
oh hi hex
Hello Aera.
not surprised to see you here
Hahaha. 😛
i came to see for doom emojis
Lots of classic doom ones. :3
When you have to grind out 5 levels in an hour on nightmare
I am speeeeeeed
ez
i'm playing on nightmare and i keep forgetting the powerups exist
i just walk by them after i finish the arena and think "oh that would have made it a little easier"
I can't find a single multiplayer lobby 😦
People dont buy switch for the graphics my guy
People play nintendo because they have better first party games
Anyone here play on xbox one? I can't find games and need someone to play with
@tribal rivet you play on xbox one?
Mancubus are fairly easy to deal with, and i feel like they'll be easier to deal with in eternal
In what world is controller play hard?
I find it harder with aim assist than without
How
I feel like joycons were mainly made for arcade experiences
get a switch pro controller man
Literally any console player will disagree with you
joycons are meh
Right stick is at awkward position but their travel is also pretty cramped compared to DS4
I've played with joycons and other consoles
Even with a grip its still painful
That’s just the shitty Nintendo design
I would def get the third party joycon redesigns that closely resemble 360/One or DS4
imo the 360 controller is the comfiest, but YMMV
I don’t like Xbox controllers
Ha ha ha
ha
Don’t fuss about it
Its not a problem
Can’t even be a problem
Because there are no snapmaps on switch
I thought I read one could still download maps just not make them.
Considering its multiplatform but has some maps with insane amount of logic they took the safe route
That’s a weird exploit
I'm trying to see if it's actually so.
Any tips how to kill barons quick?
Chainsaw or BFG
Okay, real answer - keep firing either rockets or gauss
And grenades
If you can time it right 2 guass charges
Stun shot them
stun is also good and if your good enough at strafing around his attacks super shotgun works but not as quickly as the other 2
I typically just spam super shotgun and gauss cannon, nothing that duo cant handle
Easy way for me is to land a grenade, empty some micro rockets, another grenade then precision gauss to the head, that get a glory kill
I also have a question, which does more damage for gauss: Precision Bolt or Siege Mode
Precision does more damage with a higher stopping power. Siege will still do a lot of damage but will instead pierce enemies
The main reason is that it's more direct, so if you place it right, it's damage output is extremely high. And since its quicker, it has a higher dps anyway
No problem
@amber cairn I’m on pc sorry! I tried DOOM on Xbox at someone’s house
Just shoot it till it dies
Yeah that typically works
Siege mode also has a larger area of effect. Precision is just a thin bolt while Siege has an entire tunnel
I may have encountered a bug on switch when playing Arcade mode
Sometimes the siege mode didn’t seem to do any aoe damage
It only damaged what it hit.
Small but annoying glitch
Usually swapping to a different weapon fixed the aoe bug, but when u expect to kill a horde and kill 1 imp it hurts, literally
im still on my 100% Nightmare run @flat pecan
Just dont have the time to finish it 
I an not good enough for nightmare
If i can do nightmare on a switch handheld with no gyro. You can too. Practice makes for a good player
Doom on the switch sounds like a nightmare ngl
I’m gonna do nightmare eventually
Never ultra nightmare
I think I’m getting better though I’m breezing through ultra violence
Yeah u need hella patience to do UN
Being used to pc, I played Xbox doom demo at someone’s house and MAN is it weird without aim assist. With it on feels like cheating.
Curious how the switch feels in relation! No gyro meaning you can’t tilt the switch to aim it seems?
Yeah. Gyro is motion aiming, I keep motion aiming off
For the challenge?
As for the aim assist. If you are playing right, you are never close enough for aim assist to do all the work. At mid to far range its only a slight assist. So you still do most of the aiming yourself
Actually I just dont like gyro. I dont like tilting my siwtch
I only played UAC but it felt so much easier with it
Difficulty?
I’m not used to controllers for fps. About the tilt I gotcha
Was on NM, it was the demo I downloaded on their Xbox
I usually do UN/challenge runs on PC
aim assist off was tough to get through that first arena outside the elevator. Then I replayed with it on and didn’t die.
Ohhh yeah 🤘 wish you could stream it
Yeah people keep asking if i had footage or such, but since i only play handheld there is no way to record it
Unless I like mount a go pro on my forehead or something
You’d probably need a capture card
And some special external usb-c special cables and set ups. And those are not entirely safe
Not safe??
@noble moat I play doom on switch do you want to play?
I dont do onlin e
Ok
No Nintendo online
Gyro > sticks but I dunno I’m too used to sticks for controllers
Can someone explain me this thing and how i should master it? :x
https://i.imgur.com/EqmRyeM.png
how long is this thing active?
a couple of seconds i think. Reload the save at a high difficulty. Maybe the area where 4 barons spawn?
So purrty much. You play DnD in doom.
Demons and Doom slayers
@fossil island Basically you want to find an area with lots of demons, get killed / kill yourself, then use BFG to clear them out
yeah i watched a video a moment ago, how long is the slowmo?
bcause i need this in ONE run
and i dont want to screw up :D
Not sure precisely, something like 5 seconds, but I think if you have vacuum on it's shorter since you absorb the health
So make sure you get the kills, then put vacuum on
Anyone still plays MP?
after i finished my 100% Nightmare run i will play MP again ^^
MP on ps4 was pretty active last night
Hmm, Im on PC. I can't find matchs.
pc might not be as populated.
idk tho. But I forgot how fun infernal run could be
you tried the teamplay playlist?
trying it now
it's normally got more people in it, mainly for soul harvest
Hm, got it. Thanks.
Titan Realm on Nightmare boyz and girlz...
Wish me luck :D
-various chanting-
and i still have to master the saving throw rune, on that level 
You'll get the hang of it in about 3 tries.
Just think about being Max Payne in first person.

max payne in first person but death fears you
Doom 2016 multiplayer still gets my pp hard. Love killin' and taunting
https://i.imgur.com/Ac7jKTX.jpg
ohh yeeees 
Is anyone evan playing multiplayer?
On PC? yes
Rich get Richer is Extreme dumb.
Those where the last 3 i had to master, so thats not that dumb :D
oh and btw. even if i use it. Its my first 100% nightmare run
Made it to VEGA Processing. What's the best place to get Gore Pinata challenge?
Which difficulty you on?
Ultra-Violence
Fuck. Looks like i'm not 100%-ing Vega core.
I forgot the second praetor chip
Okay so I got hit by a cacodemon's ball, and it legit tilted itself back and laughed at me.
They do be like that sometimes
so i played a bit of the multiplayer
and good lord double shotties is nutty
with the way weapon switching/comboing works in doom 2016, i can kinda see why loadouts are a thing in the multiplayer. If you had access to the doom 2016 equivalent of the unholy trinity, SSG, Gauss, and Rockets, people would die very quick in multiplayer, faster than they already do
Transistor Fist is literally my fav one of them all!
VEGA Processing, easily.
My ultimate goal is to buy this one day and beat doom on nightmare with it
It is THE most uncomfortable controller in the planet
Only issue is
1: it’s $100
2: see reason 1
Okay I need help. I cannot seem to get the "Hold Still" challenge, which is basically to kill the barons at the third arena in one hit
For whatever reason, the BFG seems to not be an acceptable answer to that?
This is on Argent D'Nur, obviously.
Yeah BFG doesn't work, use the quad with siege gauss @old onyx
Y'know I just realized that there's an artifact in Hayden's office that reveals the crucible as a sword
It is DONE.
Now to take care of spoder
And there it is. Doom 2016, done and done. Now I gotta just...somehow, keep myself entertained until the 20th. Oof...
I want to make a note that I’d prob be done with switch UN by now if my left Joycon wasn’t fucked up
@old onyx it actually ended one of Byte's WR pace UN 100% runs a few weeks ago lol
RIP. I got very salty just doing it on UV. I'm never doing Nightmare.
nightmare is where the fun is
I have to put my UN run on hold =/
I need to somehow send in my joycon to get it replaced
3 years and the cons are still the biggest con of the switch
No, not fun Zexxy. """""fun™️"""""
the fun zone
pain and pleasure are the same
nightmare is where an imp slaps you for all of your armor and half a health bar, after you just picked up a megasphere
nah but that's fine, play whatever difficulty you have fun with
Nightmare is most fun imo. At least for me anyways
even being super reckless with your ammo doesn't guarantee an imp won't just stuff his hand in your pants
the jank with enemy attacks really comes to life there
nnnnno?
I tend to allocate specific weapons for each demon as well
It takes more than 'just move forehead'
but I do just move forehead
that one room with the haste and quad before the cyberdemon
i was dodging an imp projectile, and a pinky charged below me and flung me across the map
Ultraviolence and above for teens. Below for preadolescent growth stages.
I try that and I die Broodles
So obviously there is more involved than 'just move forehead'
then you aren't moving fast enough

it's even worse when you super shotty an imp that's stuck to a wall charging a fireball
and he doesn't die. He doesn't even fall off. He just hurls the big fireball at you and kills you instantly
I glue the movement keys all the way down, don't you tell me I ain't movin' fast enough
it's not just moving fast enough, but knowing when and where to move
And yes that can just eat dicc.
oh if you see an imp crawling on a wall either get out of sight or just instagib it
Yes Durp, I suppose that is it.
I just move at random
timing health and armor and powerup pickups
i usually save the powerups for when i'm below 100 health
and then grab them for a quick restore
however, i will say, i sometimes screw myself over by forgetting i can BFG or Chainsaw, or I forget I can use siege mode, or I switch to the wrong weapon and either don't fire OR i rocket myself at super close range
I generally focus on and prioritise enemies and zone out the others, making quick work of them or just unconsciously dodging them. When you're able to dodge 5 imps all firing from different places at different times without so much as even looking to see that they're there in the first place, while simultaneously duelling 3 hell knights then you're gootchi
I know but one thing I found was hard was duelling them with the artillery I didn't know was there
what keeps getting me really tilted is the enemy that plagues us all since the og games
I had to learn to basically expect everything all at once and dodge
damned revenants
which I found the best way was to just move at random and never stop in the first place
revenants are ez
i burn all my ammo or chainsaw the summoner, but not before an extra hell knight shows up and divides my attention
well, they can't summon summoners but what I mean is increasing the size of the enemies numbers
I just super shotgun them and stalk them
gauss cannon or rocket burst
they don't usually summon when they're in constant danger
I don't risk it with super shotty
I usually go super shotty on everything
if i'm close enough for a super shotty, there's likely another enemy getting ready to light me up
except mancubus, they soak damage too much
imps can get the whole shotgun though
i lane enemies and then just weave around the room to kill off stragglers
mancubi, it depends on how far away they are
if I see them spawn a good ways off, i mobile turret and burn them down
The cybermancubus teeters on the edge of "Too tanky to be remotely fun to kill"
I make sure to take out the mancubi quickly or from a distance
FUCK the cyber mancubus holy shit
I can't deal with that firepower on top of everything else
if they're too close, I use the unholy trinity on them until they die
gauss/ssg/rocket+burst
usually dies in a rep and a half
I just take out the siege gauss or the sentry gattelling gun
3 hits from siege and they're dead
Mobile turret rips and tears
the mancubi usually make me breathe a sigh of relief. Idk why but they're easier for me to deal with
it's the small and fast shits like imps and revenants and spectres that drive me up the wall
see I'm the opposite
Yeah mancubus are no issue. Even cyber ones attack less often
those guys for me are real easy to deal with but I yeet out once the mancubus arrives
I'd take 5 barons over 5 mancubi any day
If anything line up enemies and siege them towards mancubus for collat damage
I've been fucked over by the cybermancubus's charge-up floor bile shit too many times, cannot agree.
i rarely have problems with the mancubus but the cyber-mancubus just fucks me idk
and it's not even the acid that covers the floors that's fucking me up
if I have quad damage or berserk, I usually target the mancubi first
get the heavy hitters out
I can brawl with the brawlers easily
and the range enemies I can dodge
mancubi are slow enough that i can ignore them and kill the faster moving enemies before i go chew them up
also I don't think I've ever had problems with revenants unless I'm playing really stupidly
just those damn mancubi
it's less of the revenants killing me
and more of them dividing my attention and opening me up to stupid enemies like imps or spectres
and the occasional hell knight that i forget to clap
is everyone here enjoying 2016
obv
i stopped my nightmare run at the hell guardians
the bosses on nightmare are great
i have an assignment that's due tomorrow and also i just have to actually dedicate a session to dealing with these goons
I think the main reason I can move around so easily and easily deal with the enemies is due to my awareness in every area
Trying to 100% nightmare now
the cyberdemon was easy as expected
I am constantly listening and flicking my head around for little glimpses
so I already know the battlefield
one thing I love about nightmare
is that your forced to constantly update your combat situation
even so I usually stick to the same stuff
like if your not up to date on whats going on at all times your going to die.
^
you don't need everything up to date
just make sure you have at least one thing for each situation
at all times
this is why i have issues with imps/spectres
you look away for one second and suddenly all the imps have changed positions
ultra-nightmare amplifies that by like four times and that's why I enjoy it so much
and there's like two or three pinkies or spectres looking for you
it's thrilling imo
I stay away from trying to complete ultra nightmare, I just play for fun since I know I can't beat it
with the amount of times I die in nightmare despite my boasting at how simple I can deal with things, ultra nightmare is practically impossible
since despite how I say these things are easy, you can safely bet the only reason I know is because I've died in those exact areas 20 times over
ultra nightmare would be keyboard smashingly difficult
I got as far as the end of Foundry before I gave up on Nightmare
I just got back from hell
I died six times or so on the one section with the barrels.
And realized this was not for me.
each time I usually progress further so I always see me making progress with my deaths
i thought plutonia was annoying but imps in this game might actually be worse than chaingunners
When I hit a rough spot, it's always me being horribly stuck on the exact same spot over and over until I clear it. It's soul-crushing.
I either power through it entirely or I get NOWHERE. It's the kind of thing that's bound to make someone give up.
Honestly I would say that 'watch your back' is the most important thing.
Because the thing that causes cheap deaths is the imp chargeup kame hame ha slapping you on the booty.
i don't think i've hated imps more than the last couple of days tbh
i know i said revenants and spectres
but if i'm being honest, most of my deaths are imps
Yup.
i glory kill some fool, and as i'm coming out of it, who grabs my ass and asks me what's good? an imp, for all of my armor and half my health bar
when i fully upgraded the mobile turret, i did not regret wasting a roomful of them with it
Another tip for attempting Nightmare, is to know when to, and when not to GK.
For that very reason alone.
wat's RgR
rich get richer
What does that even mean
I mean the game is probably harder cuz you won’t hit shit. That’s pretty much it
Got some forbidden doom 2016 lore
The HAR is semi-auto but fires like an automatic because that's how fast doomguy can pull the trigger
@south junco think about this way
the game became easy because you had to essentially do the levels over and over again
you became better than the level.
