doom-2016

[burnt badger]

Half of those you blast with BFG or beserk though

[hoary shell]

Not as rare as certain Doom 3 enemies at least

I berserked like 5 Summoners so I probably just didn't notice

[burnt badger]

You mean ticks?

[hoary shell]

I enjoyed fighting all 10 Mancubi in the game, especially when 3-5 are in the first encounter

[dusky raptor]

@tribal rivet how does one accomplish insta siege?

[burnt badger]

yeah there's like 4 in the first encounter, then a few in hell

[native grove]

There's a few 4-5 in the tram arena

[burnt badger]

@dusky raptor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtPt_URCw6M

[dusky raptor]

Ty

[tribal rivet]

It’s a game changer

[dusky raptor]

For sure, I noticed

Been watching the current world record UN Speedrun & noticed him abusing the hell out of it

[edgy sinew]

can they put 2016 with doom 64 classic map im sorry my english is not so good

[noble moat]

What? Why would they add stuff to a 4 year old game?

[woven pecan]

Thinking about doing an uv speed run to see how fast i can do it

Im debating that and playing mc

[elder meadow]

This is a dumb question but are the demons really from hell or are they aliens because my friend is dumb

[worldly magnet]

hell

[long hazel]

both
hell is an alien dimension

[worldly magnet]

in the lore its the real hell

[elder meadow]

@noble moat slowly getting the hand of your control scheme.

But not biblically right? @long hazel @worldly magnet

[long hazel]

well 2016 doesn't specify
I guess we'll see in Eternal

[grim heron]

I mean, the idea is just that, in the Doom universe, the biblical story of Hell came about because of the Hell dimension in the games

So yes it is the biblical Hell. call it an alternate dimension or world or planet or whatever - it is Hell
but it is not exactly as the bible would describe, obviously.

[long hazel]

that's a strong possibility
reminds me of Childhood's End, where the appearance of devils is based on aliens, through some vague non-linear racial memory type thing

[grim heron]

yeah that's another way to think about it

[noble moat]

@elder meadow I actually wouldn’t recomend Knuckles

[elder meadow]

You tell me this now.

[noble moat]

I only do it because I really don’t like the idea of clicking the joycons

[elder meadow]

Neither do I

[noble moat]

Oh then u should be fine

[elder meadow]

It's hard playing a fast paced FPS handheld. lol

[noble moat]

It takes a bit to get used to. But I like it purely because no clicking of the cons

[elder meadow]

Like my accuracy is shit

[noble moat]

Yeah it is crazy, what difficulty u on?

[elder meadow]

Uhm. I'm Too Young to Die

[noble moat]

That’s ok. Switch is definitely not an easy platform for doom

No point going higher if you can’t get a hang of the switch

[elder meadow]

Think I'm gonna give it a try with the Pro controller.

[noble moat]

Got secret gauss

[elder meadow]

?

[noble moat]

Have u played doom 2016 b4?

[elder meadow]

On PS4, yah?

[noble moat]

U know about the early secret weapons?

[elder meadow]

Nope lol

[noble moat]

So In pretty much the first 5 missions besides
The mars level.

1 secret in each level lets you find a weapon earlier than usual

2nd level plasma rifle
3rd rpg
4th super shotgun
5th gauss cannon

Rn I’m doing switch handheld no gyro UN. And in UN you kinda have to get these guns early to help

Hello kadingir sactum, I’m fucking back

The
“He is Here”
Always makes me feel so badass. The demons can sense ive arrived

[elder meadow]

Jesus

How can you play this game handheld It's painful

I had to switch to pro controller

And even then, the controls are still tight.

[noble moat]

🤷‍♂️ I’m just me

[elder meadow]

lol

[noble moat]

Although I did just die so have to restart my run

Hopefully eternal fixes the issue of the game taking too long to get good, after a few runs I find the first 3 levels quite boring =/

[elder meadow]

How so?

[noble moat]

It’s boring. You fight like 3 different demons, and it’s slow and you don’t have many guns or stuff

Once you get to Argent facility is when it starts picking up the pace a bit and feeling more like doom

[violet hinge]

well by the third level of eternal you have access to most of the weapons. it definitely picks up faster in terms of arsenal and demons.

(not sure how i posted that in the sc channel before) 🤔

[noble moat]

Good.

[worldly magnet]

Kadingir has a secret chaingun

[flint dune]

Yeah with the other ID game Easter egg right, of...I forget what the game’s called

[worldly magnet]

In lazarus?

[west wraith]

which song from the OST is the one with the jumpscare in it

[gleaming wolf]

@flint dune is that the commander keen Easter egg?

[worldly magnet]

Yup

[flint dune]

Yes! that’s what it was called

[storm pawn]

Can I just say the DOOM 2016 Cyberdemon is the most badass design of all the new DOOM games

[pastel token]

soon i feel this place will become a desolate waste land

[storm pawn]

Yeah

I mean, they did say once you play Eternal there's no looking back

[hoary shell]

Finally got 100% in 2016

Those multiplayer achievements are a bit of a nightmare

[storm pawn]

After playing ultraviolence in eternal ultra nightmare will be a breeze in 2016

Lmao

[hoary shell]

Until you slip on some geometry

[storm pawn]

Also nice @hoary shell

TRUUUE @hoary shell

[hoary shell]

At this rate I'll probably go for max mp rank

True 2016 100%

[storm pawn]

I died falling into the void more than from the demons ffs

[hoary shell]

Just in time for Eternal before the mp dies

[pastel token]

lmao

[tribal rivet]

speedrunning may be different in eternal mechanics wise or the way it feels, at least for any%

[crystal orbit]

Guessing railboost won't be a thing anymore for one

Only time I managed to pull off a railboost it was accidentally and ended the UN run lol

[elder meadow]

Think I got to level 3.

I'm obviously doing something wrong if I'm not finding all the secrets.

Maybe I'll do that on a second playthrough down the line.

I found the game too difficult to play w/ motion controls

So I am sticking to pro controller. It's fun!

[noble moat]

Ya know there is a reason why they are called secrets

Secret hunting, even while knowing where they are. Can easily add another 5+ min to the level

Also yeah I never used motion controls. Found them horrendous. I’ll stick to sticks

[dapper ferry]

So I just completed the Doom 2016 story for the first time. It's pretty cool. I got spoiled by the literal last scene though, by a meme on some other discord server unrelated to Doom as I was opening the game to play the last level
But other than that, I still loved the game, just satisfying killing a bunch of demons and has made me super hyped for Doom Eternal!

So seeing how secrets was just the topic. Classic Doom maps, does every level in the game have one and they are just incredibly hard to find as time goes on? Or just the few? Since I found ones relatively quickly in the early levels but then suddenly couldn't find one after looking for ages and looked thoroughly in the following level as well, didn't find one. And then I just kinda gave up on looking for them since I wanted to progress the story.

[flint dune]

There’s one hidden in every level, you can go back and play through all of the ones you’ve unlocked in your Campaign menu too @dapper ferry

[harsh relic]

There is one fact about all levers

They are always in the same room/area with the door. Some even make you face the door

[flint dune]

Yeah any door that looks kind of retro-y or out of place is a classic map door. Some levers are hidden really well though. Plenty of videos on how to find em’

[harsh relic]

I could never find the 1st or 2nd lever without a guide. Literally camoflauged .

[flint dune]

Lol, I found most of them by accident but yeah I needed help with a few

[harsh relic]

Wakt no the 3rd lever not the 2nd

Kadinger is the easiest

[flint dune]

Ikr

[harsh relic]

And necrpplosis

[flint dune]

Legit right in front of you

[harsh relic]

Or was it titans realm?

[flint dune]

The hardest was the Argent Tower one for me

[hoary shell]

Argent Tower is dum dum

[harsh relic]

Argent Tower is bad. You gotta go up then back down and be on the right platform

[hoary shell]

The rest just like to camouflage

[flint dune]

It’s annoying. My first play through I was almost at the top but I decided to experiment which resulted in death 👍

[hoary shell]

The Foundry lever took me way longer to find than it should've

[harsh relic]

Except kandinger and it's obvious cave

[hoary shell]

The argent lever was also when I realized fall damage exists in 2016

[flint dune]

Yep same here xD

[harsh relic]

Argent facility is better for fall damage

Or enviro damage

[flint dune]

I fell out of the map once and it didn’t kill me, so I had to willingly jump into the black abyss below

[hoary shell]

Rip

[harsh relic]

I've gotten out of bound in UAC multiple times and out of bounds in foundary with the camera mode

[flint dune]

Lol nice. I saw a speed run where this guy glitches out of every map with the Gauss Canon. It was insane

[hoary shell]

Gauss Cannon boost is wack

[flint dune]

Yeah. You should see how it looks from a 3rd person angle when the Slayer is holding it

[dapper ferry]

@flint dune @harsh relic Thanks for the info/tips about the Classic Doom levels. I knew I must've missed something.

[flint dune]

Yeah np, happy to help

[dapper ferry]

So, for it to count, do I have to play all of the level again? Or can I just go find it and then exit and it will count?

[flint dune]

All you have to do to unlock one of them, is find the lever and step inside the lovely classic textured room. So yes, find, exit and it’ll unlock.

After that the entire level unlocks for you and you can go play it underneath the “Classic Levels” tab in your Campaign menu.

[dapper ferry]

Okay thanks. I didn't wanna practically play the whole campaign again to unlock them.

[tribal rivet]

@flint dune was it an any% run or something of the like? Legacy New Game+?

[elder meadow]

I understand why there aren't really any mods for doom 2016 but i still wish there was

[tribal rivet]

theres a community for it, small but there @elder meadow

[elder meadow]

Oh cool

[tribal rivet]

There’s a discord if you’d like an invite. A subreddit too but it’s dead

[native heath]

any one wot to voice chat yes/no

[soft crest]

The subreddit also has a snapmap competition every two months so if you make snapmaps you can test your making skills.

[lapis hare]

Guys! I am upset. :c

I died several times in the tutorial room thingie. And now I keep dying at the first place to fight stuff.

How to play this game xd

[elder meadow]

Glory Kill everything

[lapis hare]

those

imp thingies 1 hit me its insane :c

im trying to play on nightmare because i've read its good experience.

[elder meadow]

Ah

[lapis hare]

but im not sure how im supposed to do this..

I am not that great at shooters...

[elder meadow]

Run like hell and never stop.

[lapis hare]

and kill them while running?

[elder meadow]

Yup!

[lapis hare]

mh..

lemme try qq third attempt now

[rustic horizon]

If you're not that great it's okay to lower the difficulty

[elder meadow]

Imps are the worst on nightmare until you can start upgrading. Later in the level you can get the underbarrel grenade for the shotgun and it instantly becomes easier, a little

[rustic horizon]

Is the Burst shot any good though?

[elder meadow]

I have no idea, I never use it

[lapis hare]

AHHH

It's so difficult..

I thought I was gonna kill them this time, but suddenly died.

[rustic horizon]

Don't worry, just keep on the move

[elder meadow]

It took me an hour my first time just to get up to the surface LMFAO

[lapis hare]

I am at the surface right now!

But I am stuck here.. xd

[rustic horizon]

First, good work

[lapis hare]

Also I am 2 dumb, I always look at the ground when I glory kill stuff xd

[elder meadow]

That's a tough arena, use barrels too!

[rustic horizon]

Second, use the terrain to your advantage

[lapis hare]

my game is not workign anymor eand im really upset now

[rustic horizon]

Oh dear

[lapis hare]

its just all black

[elder meadow]

Time for a break

[lapis hare]

i've just started...

[elder meadow]

Then never give up! :D

[lapis hare]

ok im restarting it and giving it another try!

Um, I've played counter strike before! I probably wanna use a slightly higher sens for doom right?

[rustic horizon]

Oh...oh dear...

[lapis hare]

Wha-

[rustic horizon]

Yeah, first thing you might want to do is increase sens

[lapis hare]

oh..

um it's 400 dpi with 1.9 right now!

[rustic horizon]

CS is vastly different from Doom

[lapis hare]

Maybe change it up to 2.5?

[rustic horizon]

Just make sure you can turn to your back on a whim

[lapis hare]

Mh.

Also um, do I want 144 fps for 144 hz?

[rustic horizon]

These imps move like they're on steroids

[lapis hare]

I could lower my settings a bit o. o

[rustic horizon]

Uh...I'm not a tech guy...could someone help?

[lapis hare]

Nobody but you and me here~

[rustic horizon]

Well shite

...I guess does it crash on you a lot?

If so lower your graphics and you should be good

[lapis hare]

Oh, no no~ Nevermind it. It's about the smoothness of the screen, since I use a higher hz than 60.

Dw abt it~

Also changing the sens helped a bit! I've beaten the first surface thingie!

[rustic horizon]

Excellent, move on and find the blue key.

[lapis hare]

cute doll~

how do i throw grenades...?

[soft crest]

Control

Also the middle wheel mouse button. F1 switch between grenade types.

[dawn pike]

Oof I haven't played on PC but those binds sound like they were made for people to want to change them

[slate spindle]

I think the PS4 controls are way better

[soft crest]

I never used different grenade types and like grenades on control

If I was to change something get that grenade switch button from F1 to Caps.

[dawn pike]

what's mapped to G in D16

[soft crest]

BFG I believe

[elder meadow]

chainsaw

[soft crest]

^

[elder meadow]

bfg is t

[dawn pike]

O

Does D16 still have the ability to use numkeys to select weapons

[soft crest]

It wouldnt make sense to put it on 9 and 10

1-8 are weapons

But 9-10 are too far imo

[dawn pike]

Right, so that's still there even tho the weapon wheel got added, good

And yea i know

I'd probs map grenade switching to alt or something
Yknow
If any grenade that wasn't frags were useful

cough

[rustic horizon]

R is the chainsaw, right?

[soft crest]

Oh, you mean numlock? I dont think you can use it

R is switch weapon mods

[dawn pike]

Maybe I don't understand the true usefulness of it but I feel like R could be used for something that isn't an action people will barely use

[soft crest]

I think its fine, for example in the case of Rifle.

I believe the syphon grenades can be useful, dont know how helpful us the hologram

Once again, completelly missed something like this exists.

[dawn pike]

Hologram is kinda more than a little useless

Siphon grenade is ok in concept but kinda feels useless when you can just glory kill for health

[soft crest]

In my first run I completelly missed that there are more grenade types and the SSG in Argent, I still dont know how I missed that one.

*Argent Tower

[dawn pike]

The SSG is obtainable in the argent facility my chum

[soft crest]

I know, but its a secret there

[elder meadow]

not very well hidden because I accidentally found itin my first playthrough

[soft crest]

Aftertge 2nd level I decided I dont wanna secret hunt and just rushed through the game

[dawn pike]

The SSG secret is just a "you'll miss it if you're not paying attention" secret rather than a proper secret

[soft crest]

I spent a couple hours trying to find the secrets in 2, wasnt fun to me

[dawn pike]

Oh secrets in classic doom are fucked

"Ok so what you have to do is interact with this normal-looking wall with nothing odd about it, run across the entire map in 3 seconds, and you'll get 3 armour bonuses"

[soft crest]

Did accidentaly discover that one in Necrocity

Until then I didnt know about tge throwback levels

[lapis hare]

Ummm. Silly question!

How do I motivate myself to play doom? ;;

[dawn pike]

...

Good question

[soft crest]

Your first play through? Personally for me the action did it.

[lapis hare]

I mean.. I generally struggle to play singleplayers.. but doom is really a game I wanna finish and go through.

[dawn pike]

think about ruthless demon slaughter

[lapis hare]

I've just started. It's really difficult..

[elder meadow]

why?

[soft crest]

Which difficulty?

[lapis hare]

Um. I am playing Nightmare, because people said the experience is better!

[dawn pike]

wh

[lapis hare]

But I die a lot. ;; Adjust my sens helped me a bit though!

It's just such a struggle to tryhard so much ;u;

[dawn pike]

Wh...
Who said to play on nightmare first...?

[lapis hare]

But.. that's how the game is supposed to be?

[soft crest]

I played on Hurt Me Plenty the first run, I wasnt used to the way you play a Doom game back then.

[dawn pike]

@lapis hare whoever told you the game is meant to played on nightmare
On a first run
Is a fucking liar

[elder meadow]

or a masochist

[lapis hare]

aah--.. xd lots of people said they are glad they did it..

because it's really difficult and such an awesome experience qwq

[dawn pike]

Lots of people are also demented

[lapis hare]

but ya.. its more frustrating for me :c

[soft crest]

I heard UltraViolence is the purest difficulty, but you should choose a difficulty that suits you

[dawn pike]

Hurt me plenty is the first ideal difficulty

[lapis hare]

Mh ;;

I am so lazy to play it to be honest. urgh xd

[south junco]

First run I'd say play hurt me plenty or ultra violence, I'm too young to die being there if this is your first fps game or 1 of the first ones you've played

[lapis hare]

I need motivation! How do I hype myself up?

[south junco]

nightmare I usually recommend for second run at the earliest

[lapis hare]

Um. I played fps before!

But mostly competitive stuff like cs or apex x:

[south junco]

I started on hurt me plenty and just went straight to nightmare after that

wasn't too bad

[dawn pike]

See doom is more savage to play than the other more boring as fuck strategic FPS games

[soft crest]

Which rank are you in those games, how much skilled you are?

I recommend you do Hurt Me Plenty or UV, Nightmare is too much

[south junco]

it's also you need to get used to the type of shooter doom is

[dawn pike]

Hurt me plenty is the ideal doom baby mode
Trust me id know
im doom baby uwu

[soft crest]

Depends on how well you adapt to the game in the first level, but its not meant to be frustrating

[south junco]

most shooters these days you take cover and sit tight

[lapis hare]

Ummm. I went gold in Apex! And am gold 3 in cs within 150 hours ;;

[south junco]

Doom its literally move or die

[lapis hare]

Ya!

I figured. It's really fun to jump over enemies for example and shot them as they are below you uwu. It's movement I am not used to at all.

I also adjusted my sens from 400 dpi and 1.9 (like I use it in cs) to 2.5

[south junco]

exactly since most modern FPS games don't do that

[soft crest]

I think try out UV, if you feel its frustrating go back to Hurt Me Plenty

[lapis hare]

And um.. do I wanna get 144 fps? I have 144 hz.

I would have to lower settings a lot I think..

[south junco]

up to you

[lapis hare]

I get around 70 to 120 fps, in 2560x1440

wait does doom have 21:9?

[soft crest]

I think yes, not sure

[lapis hare]

I could play windowed with 21:9

that would be cool too. Mhh. Also thank you! I'll try out Hurt Me Plenty or UV!

[soft crest]

No problem. Enjoy the game!

[lapis hare]

Mhh!! ♡

AHHH. I have to restart.. if I don't wanna play nightmare?

Gosh. ;; Okay, I think I should really play UV first and then try nightmare. quq

[elder meadow]

just start a new game in another slot

or restart

[dawn pike]

@lapis hare
Hurt me plenty
Ultra Violence is only moderately easier than Nightmare

[lapis hare]

UV is oki!~

[dawn pike]

enjoy spritual CBT

[glossy kindle]

So yesterday I got toes into the madness achievement

[hoary shell]

UV is ez

Or so I thought, until I got my bro to play

[lapis hare]

It's really okay! I enjoy it. Nightmare was so difficult, if I focus on UV I don't die at all.

[elder meadow]

Help the doom slayer stole my child VEGA

[lapis hare]

And damage is much less. I finished the second mission, it was really fun!

[hoary shell]

awesome

[lapis hare]

@hoary shell Also oh my fricking gosh I love your pfp!!

Where did you find it?!

[hoary shell]

Twitter artist I know drew a small sticker pack and I thought it was very cute

[lapis hare]

Ohh.

Sticker pack for um.. what messenger? Telegram?

[hoary shell]

For anything ig

I just thought they made good pfps too

[lapis hare]

Can you maybe link me stuff in dms?~

[hoary shell]

Yeah, give me a bit to find it

[lapis hare]

Sure!

[elder meadow]

does the game preform better on openGL or vulkan? (nvidia 1660ti)

[worthy sun]

advanced research completed. 1 level per day till release!!

[exotic cave]

@elder meadow Vulkan

[elder meadow]

i've been doing that too

[glass sail]

crazy question... but have we heard ANYTHING about Orion Doom since it was announced?

[noble moat]

Hmmm, no? Good question

[winter folio]

110 fov really feels fast

And more accurate, since crosshairs become smaller too

[royal elm]

just used rich get richer with the fully upgraded and mastered micro missiles on the cyberdemon boss battle, and there was little to no chance of dying for both phases

i completely decimated the poor cyberboi and i almost felt bad for him

[noble moat]

Or use the weapon wheel glitch with BFG

[royal elm]

i did that too along with the infinite missiles

hence why i regret my decisions

i feel unstopable and evil and i dunno if that is a good or a bad thing

[noble moat]

Lol

[tribal rivet]

I use Vulkan

BFG double tap is cooler

[little crater]

Playing through nightmare why is Khadingir sactum such a ramp up in diffuculty

[flint dune]

Why not? Challenges are fun. Tbh Nightmare got easier for me the farther I progressed

Some of the Runes and upgrades make you a bit Op

[little crater]

I dont mind it but seriously i breezed through the last levels but suddenly you get slapped across the face

[flint dune]

Well it is the first Hell level in the campaign, that’s probably why

[little crater]

Ughugug

[little crater]

Beat it

[flint dune]

Noice, good job

[little crater]

i havemt played Doom 2016 in like 2 years maybe i shouldnt have started on nightmare

[winter folio]

Damn, getting a slayer rating in arcade mode is HARD

How do people get it when there’s such little tension between fights?

If you’re slow, your score goes down quick

[jade sundial]

How many people are on the DOOM 2016 Arcade leaderboard? is there a way to check?

[flint dune]

I’ve only gotten one Slayer Rating in the Arcade mode, rest are golds. Also I don’t think there’s a way to check how many people are on the leaderboard, it just shows you the top contenders

[jade sundial]

I'm 9,000 something on UAC Ultra-Nightmare.

have no idea out of how many.

or Ultra-Violence, or naightmare I dunno whatever the hardest difficulty is.. But I cant guage "how good" that is when I can only see "where I am" and who the top 10 are... It's kinda silly.

[soft crest]

Im working on a snapmap and there is an artificial intelligence character named TR3ZO (insisting on that name), I just cant figure out what (if anything) it should stand for. Its supposed to exist in the same universe as Doom, I though the explanation could be that this AI is for Deimos UAC

[little crater]

Temporary Remanant of 3 Zones Operator

[soft crest]

what does remanant mean? Im not a native

But I like it

[little crater]

Leftover, remains

[soft crest]

ohhh, thanks

[little crater]

So you could say that since Vega was destoryed this is what is leftover

[soft crest]

Ill replace the 3 with E and it can be Extreterrestrial, I think it fits

Thanks, better than I could possibly think

[little crater]

Your welcome:)

[merry wren]

so how much does the rocket launchers AoE hurt vs a direct hit?
cause i've been basically treating them like cannonball launchers for the past 10 years

[sinful beacon]

I think the aoe hurts more if you use the upgraded remote detonation because of the shrapnel

[night ice]

thank god 2016's multiplayer is alive

im level 25 beating max level people in deathmatch

[forest yoke]

I found a guy by the username Viper who was using an autofire hack

Playing on PC

[silent meteor]

Can’t wait until I finish the final MP achievement so I can stop playing this game’s bullshit multiplayer with broken hit boxes (if that’s what I think I’m referring to)

[hoary shell]

Some annoying hackers about

Bounty in tdm is a good xp boost, I get an extra level every 2-4 games

[silent meteor]

Problem is that the demons are broken as fuck with their attacks being capable of killing you before even touching you and the demons can glory kill you from a farther distance than you can glory kill them

Be sure to get the rune for infinite ammo on that level (IIRC)

[noble moat]

Yeah, definitely didn’t come back in eternal that’s for sure

[hoary shell]

Demons are beaten via teamwork

Though, Harvester is just flat out broken

[silent meteor]

And the Prowler

And the Spectre

[hoary shell]

I would've said Spectre

[silent meteor]

And the Baron’s “ranged” attack

[hoary shell]

The rest are give or take

They're also broken, but you can counter then by overwhelming them

[silent meteor]

The main issue with them is how they kill you before they even touch you 99% of the time

[hoary shell]

In 1v1 yes

But if they're attacked from multiple angles, or you get them outside their effective range, they can be beaten

[silent meteor]

Yeah, but the issue is that they’re swarming with teammates so in practice this is rarely the case

[hoary shell]

I find it around 50/50, sometimes my team can swarm a demon and take it out quickly

They're a powerful trump card, but not unstoppable (usually)

My main gripe is the harvester since their attack is instant and they're pretty mobile

Idk how the Revenant and Mancubus are supposed to compete

[silent meteor]

I don’t understand why the fuck they added challenges for wearing certain armor pieces when they take an eternity to grind and were originally DLC items that you obtained from buying DLCs

[hoary shell]

Mp achievements are stupid yeah

It just forces you to grind the game for like 20 hours

[last stirrup]

So i've been stuck in Cyberdemon's Phase 2 and ran out of BFG-900 bullets because i used them in Phase 1, nor the Chainsaw seems to work, any tips?

[worldly magnet]

Do you have mobile turret mastered?

And do you have siege mode on the gauss cannon?

[last stirrup]

I don't think so.

Mobile Turret was for Gatling, right?

[worldly magnet]

Yes

[last stirrup]

I chose the first mod, to charge my Gatling with ZL.

[worldly magnet]

Mobile turret is infinitly better

But anyway

[last stirrup]

Ah.

[worldly magnet]

Do you have siege mode

[last stirrup]

I think, it's in Spanish so let me search it.

[worldly magnet]

Switch between that and the rocket launcher

Make sure you are always moving to the left or right i case he decides to charge up his lazer shot

[last stirrup]

Yeah, i do.

[worldly magnet]

Ok before you charge it up, make sure you jump so you are moving while charging it up since your movement is stopped while charging siege mode

[last stirrup]

Any Runes i can use? I have Armored Offensive, Seek and Destroy and Stunned and Confused mastered rn.

[worldly magnet]

All of those will not help you here

Turn on vaccume, ammo boost, and if you have it, saving throw

[last stirrup]

I have none of them, oof.

[worldly magnet]

Rip, vaccume is literally the first rune you get

In argent facility

[last stirrup]

Wait nvm, i have Vaccume Mastered.

The names are confusing.

[worldly magnet]

Ah

[last stirrup]

I have all the Runes but Ammo Boost, can i get those Runes in the next playthrough or...?

[silent meteor]

You can replay missions

However in replays you’ll have to do the rune trials after finishing the mission rather than doing them in the mission

[worldly magnet]

Use any rune that does not activate upon a glory kill

Glory kill runes are absolutely useless in boss fights

[last stirrup]

So the strat is to shoot it until it dies?

[elder meadow]

yes

[last stirrup]

Well, the laser attack...oof.

This feels like a Bloodborne Boss.

[tribal rivet]

the charged shot cyberdemon laser, all you do (one way to handle it) is move in one direction as it follows you, when you hear beep beep, go the other way @last stirrup
he's not so bad once you get used to him! if you have any footage of an attempt send it my way and i can see what i could advise.

It's valuable to get in there and dance around with the bosses to learn their moves

what kinda sucks is when he pairs that up with the air missile/minefield looking attack, less room to mess around

[last stirrup]

Yeah, i discovered it after dying multiple times.

[tribal rivet]

just takes time to learn his moves

[last stirrup]

I wanted to send a ss, rip.

[tribal rivet]

aww bummer, you made it past tho?

[last stirrup]

Yeah.

He's dead now.

[tribal rivet]

is this your first run, what mode you playin on?

[sonic rune]

i recently discovered that you can kill demons much faster if you keep switching your weapon and shooting every time you switch

[last stirrup]

The uhh...medium difficulty?

[tribal rivet]

yes @sonic rune theres a certain rotation that works best, remote detonation rocket (dont actually detonate, still get bonus damage), SSG, Gauss. can toss in an explosive shot from the shotgun.
Bonus points for throwing in instant siege trick

[last stirrup]

And yep, first run.

The game is fun.

[sonic rune]

oh boy im bout to get jump boots on my ultra-violence run, already completed on hurt me plenty

[last stirrup]

Can you do smth like NG+?

[sonic rune]

fuck yeah super shotgun

fuck i missed a collectible

[elder meadow]

Anybody know where my child VEGA is. He was last seen with a mute guy in a green power armor suit with a double barrel shotgun

[sonic rune]

and fuck the mancubus

fuck the mancubus, aka the fat fire boi

@elder meadow nope

[ornate basin]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=98dMs-kElKc#

How does this guy still have arms

[sonic rune]

i dont know

i only play expert on oculus quest

expert is my normal difficulty

[ornate basin]

Also that got a c rank
What the hell is an a rank

[flint dune]

Seriously? I thought he got an A rank

[ornate basin]

No that got a c apparently

[sonic rune]

time to go flying on a drone boi

goodbye drone boi

FUCK YEAH, early gauss cannon!

[south junco]

pshhh that expert+ is easy

compared to the other community created levels

[dusky raptor]

@tribal rivet hey my man, how does one go about doing the Rune Glitch?

[little crater]

Im suprised Doom multiplayer is still alive... Well probably not on Xbox

[dusky raptor]

If I remember correctly

More people were playing Console multiplayer than PC

[tribal rivet]

super easy! lemme explain one sec:

[flint dune]

It is strange...I’ve played old games and somehow people would still be queuing for multiplayer

[tribal rivet]

Mouse over rune slot 1.
KEYBOARD down to the desired slot, either 2 or 3.
Don't move the mouse, left click. this will open your rune wheel.
Select the desired rune.

WIN!

@dusky raptor ^^^ and anyone else curious, Byte found this

[flint dune]

Huh interesting

[tribal rivet]

it means you can unlock all slots from the get go, so basically you have Vacuum, Dazed, and Ammo Boost ALLLLL ONNN by the start of Tower!

there's no known way to enable runes you haven't unlocked yet. now THAT would be scary!

[flint dune]

Speaking of runes, I had to make an entirely new campaign file and play through it because one of the achievements got bugged, even when I went back and got all the runes it wouldn’t give it to me. Annoying as hell

[tribal rivet]

heard of that one yuck

[dusky raptor]

Ty

[tribal rivet]

no prob, its pretty cool cause you get both the effect and mastery benefit!

[flint dune]

It was worth it though because it was the last achievement I needed to get the Platinum Trophy

[dusky raptor]

Mastery benefit too?

[tribal rivet]

yeah you get everything just like its on normally, you can get the ticks to master it, the benefit of the rune itself

except without actually needing to unlock the slot

[dusky raptor]

That's siiick

[flint dune]

Wait so what does that glitch actually do?

[dusky raptor]

So I can level up the rune without the slot being unlocked is what you're saying

[tribal rivet]

yeah you can wear it like the slot was already unlocked, absolutely 0 difference

[flint dune]

Oh, huh didn’t know that glitch existed

[tribal rivet]

it was recently discovered at AGDQ in practice by Byte, he found a way to replicate it after that

he has a video showing it off, its super duper easy though

[flint dune]

Doom 2016 has a lot of bugs, but considering Bethesda published it, it’s not that bad

[tribal rivet]

its going down as an all time favorite. i absolutely love talking strategy and seeing other people push for their goals in it

[tribal rivet]

i cant think of this OST track name!

its played in argent facility destroyed between arenas, goes back n forth between a couple notes, da na da na

[flint dune]

Is it like ambient music or combat?

[tribal rivet]

not the main AFD ambient music

[flint dune]

Ah

[tribal rivet]

but not combat

i know we all have heard it

[flint dune]

Hmmm, let me think...

[tribal rivet]

im goin through the ost now too

got it!

authorization olivia pierce duh! lol

[flint dune]

Ohhh I was thinking about that one but I wasn’t sure what you meant by “Da na da na” lol

[tribal rivet]

it goes da na, na, na!

kinda hard to hear over text though!

[flint dune]

Wait- Yeah I’m listening to it rn, you right

[tribal rivet]

it fits so well with the barren, morose.. desolate scene of AFD between battles though

[flint dune]

Truly the music of Doom 2016 is masterful, fits so well

I hate autocorrect I have to keep editing what I say

[elder meadow]

yooooooo I just realized something, there are multiple titan corpses in titans realm

[tribal rivet]

we will find out more on march 20!

[crystal orbit]

Why did I think it would be a good idea to play soccer with an explosive barrel with a possessed soldier in UN lol

[tribal rivet]

oh no no no, you didnt have environment suit mastered did you

RIP (and tear), because it is done 😦

[crystal orbit]

No I was still in the early part of Res Ops

[tribal rivet]

whats your PB on un?

[crystal orbit]

Kadingir I think

[tribal rivet]

if you can just get past that mid point you can clear it

ive never died in UN past AFD, not to say it cant happen (well, not counting when i missed a secret in dnur and i tried to go jumping back for it heh)

[crystal orbit]

yeah its getting to the second half of the game thats the hard part

[tribal rivet]

what do you run into most as issues? do you make heavy use of stun and holo? those are game changers

hows situational awareness, as in not developing tunnel vision, and keeping up with whats going on/ tracking around you?

[crystal orbit]

I'll be honest I have never used the hologram ever

[tribal rivet]

it will change your life. no clickbait lol. its that OP

i'd make a habit of incorporating both stun and holo copiously into your rotation. when you do, youll notice a BIG change. i promise. money back guarantee.

i legit cant stress enough how much those 2 things help - and they're often underused

[crystal orbit]

Almost every time I die its a brief moment of tunnel vision yeah. That or the environment lol

[tribal rivet]

awww man :\ yeah keeping tabs of whats going on around you goes a long way

without sounding like a shill (ok it does, but it helps answer your question!) i have videos on each of these topics. but i like discussing them!

knowing whats coming next by memorization is super helpful as well. as is having a strategy for each arena, as opposed to winging it. world of difference

[flint dune]

I always wing it lol, but yeah you need strats if you’re on UN

[crystal orbit]

Honestly I dont focus much on the first three levels I sort of just go into autopilot

[sonic rune]

Dude, how did i not notice that possesed soldiers are the uac gaurds

[crystal orbit]

I mean, where else would they come from

[sonic rune]

i dont know

Kinda wish there was a 50/50 chance to have it be red

[sonic rune]

what if there was a multiplayer campaign except its 2 uac gaurds that are cleaning up the remaining demons for doom 2016

[opaque palm]

currently working on making doom 2016 my first platinum
whats left
Finish all challenges
Master all weapons
Master all runes
complete both snapmap tutorials

[elder meadow]

You got this, those are easy!

[south junco]

oh right playstation has that bronze, silver, gold and platinum achievements thing

I still haven't gotten all the ratchet and clank trilogy achievements on my vita

[vale elk]

The multiplayer achievements still bug me tbh, wish they'd made the MP a separate Steam listing with isolated achievements

[meager pendant]

anyone got advice for the spider demon? Specifically the attacks with the legs? I feel like no matter what I do the leg attacks always hit and always do a shit ton of damage

[devout ibex]

don't stand near them.

[elder meadow]

yo is there a way to stop the autopause when we alt tab out

[soft crest]

tbh I dont really understand your problem, can you clarify it more?

I dont think you can get rid of the autopause

[elder meadow]

youre ingame, you alt tab and the game pauses automatically

like you do with the esc key

@soft crest

[elder meadow]

I'm starting fresh, and I'm gonna beat Nightmare before Eternal comes out. I've only made it to Foundry before, this time I beat it

dude sameee

im at level 5

thurst boots and revenants lol, making sure to unlock everything

i missed 2 challenges tho, so rip

[hollow oracle]

Nice. My Doom uninstalled itself so I’m having to reinstall it lol

[winter folio]

How does a game uninstall itself

[elder meadow]

ask fallout 76's beta

[elder meadow]

OOF!

yo chill out homie, bethesda gonna ban hammer ur ass, no where is safe

[dusky raptor]

YO I just made it passed Kadingir last night

I'm so ridiculously hyped, I've been grinding UN for about 3 weeks now

I think this is gonna be the run, holo is so op

I also feel like the biggest threat are summoners & lost souls, I've had 0 trouble with any others so far

Barons are just meat shields, stun bomb + holo with maxed equipment suit slots

[hoary shell]

That's the greatest hurdle, just don't let your nerves get to you now

[dusky raptor]

I've had more troubles with Facility & Tower than Kadingir in all honesty

Those two levels are generally where my run ended

[royal elm]

Has anyone else had the problem where they cant tab out while playin doom?
I tried with windowed mode anf fullscreen, but cant exit the tab or fullscreen
Fully, to access other tabs

I jusy wanna alt tab and access discors while i play doom or access my playlist on youtube or spotify

[lapis hare]

@royal elm ya game goes black sometimes when i tab out and in

[royal elm]

Sounds similar to my problem, except it just wont let me alt tab at all

[dusky raptor]

Do you have any other tabs open?

If it's not fully open, like not a background process it has to be a tab open and available on your taskbar

It won't work

[royal elm]

I did try with no tabs open and tabs open in the background and it wouldnt work in either scenario

[dusky raptor]

Weird, you know how to full screen and unfullscreen right?

alt + enter

Also check if it's in windowed full screen or not, that might be a reason why

[royal elm]

Ill try to alt enter trick along with jt being windowed and actual full screen and check back with you

[sinful beacon]

honestly i just take it as a weird computer thing since some games really dislike being tabbed out of and others are fine

TF2 borderline crashes if i tab out and other games struggle to either go out or back in

[royal elm]

@sinful beacon same dude, tf2 tabs out fine but garrys mod will get all messy if i try to tab out

some computers and some games handle alt tabbing in tons of weird and different ways

[sinful beacon]

its weird too because it usually has nothing to do with how demanding it is

Black mesa is one of the more demanding games I have and it tabs in and out perfectly

[royal elm]

oh yay i can tab out whilst in doom now

thnx Tyr

[dusky raptor]

Np man

[daring quartz]

Hey guys, I could use some help with something in 2016

I’m stuck and idk where to go

[noble moat]

Argent facility?

[elder meadow]

Follow the markers too

[daring quartz]

Yea it was argent, I figured it out

I’m stupid

[real hawk]

Is there a place to find people to boost/grind achievements in multiplayer?

[royal elm]

just beat doom again

gay spider is finally become kill

[flint dune]

Yes it become kill

[weary willow]

This is gonna sound dumb, but I've gone back to doom to finish it off again before friday and all my guns etc are missing? Which is fine, but how do I get my challange points back when I've already done them all?

[wintry wolf]

Just beat doom on ultra nightmare lets gooooooo

[tribal rivet]

Alt enter before alt Tab yes

And grats @wintry wolf !! Feels awesome doesn’t it

[elder meadow]

i'll have finished ultra-nightmare for the third time on thursday, i think

been playing one level per day since the 7th

[wintry wolf]

yeah but i just really wanted to beat it before eternal comes out lol

thats really cool though that you beat it 3x already tho

[elder meadow]

by comparison i have no idea how many times I've failed at completing it

[wintry wolf]

haha same here man

[dusky raptor]

Finishing Kadingir Sanctum on UN felt euphoric

It's insane how useful maxed hologram is

[flint dune]

I didn’t die a lot through my run on Nightmare, but the anxiety when playing UN got to me. I still haven’t finished it, not really willing to put myself through that stress again lol

[dusky raptor]

Yeah it's definitely an experience

To get to where I am now, I've probably died 80+ times in UN

[flint dune]

Rip

[dusky raptor]

Aye it's all good though

Each time I learned something

[flint dune]

How far have you gotten? Have you finished it?

[dusky raptor]

No, I just got to destroyed argent facility, my furthest yet; but I think this is the finishing run

I know exactly what I'm doing now

[flint dune]

Ah well you’ll eventually get it. Good luck

[dusky raptor]

Thank you brother, right back at ya

[tribal rivet]

It’s the mental game when you know you’re on UN, even though practicing is very good to do, just getting in there and getting that perma-death experience is something. Practice NM a lot though!

holo is insane. Max EQ suit and even the EQ power rune, which I believe takes the holo from 5-8 seconds if it doesn’t die, is nuts. Plus there’s a trick for basically instant and free mastery

[timber wadi]

Does anyone know why I haven't gotten the achievement after getting all the runes? I have them all unlocked but I don't have the achievement

[tribal rivet]

There’s some glitch with that

[timber wadi]

Is there any way around it?

Because I don't know of it

[sonic rune]

finally passed those 4 or 5 fucking barons

fuck all those barons

[timber wadi]

Anyone know how to go around the glitch?

[elder meadow]

Get em all again

[timber wadi]

So just redo all the trials?

Or make a new campaign?

[tribal rivet]

Which barons @sonic rune

[sonic rune]

kadingr sanctum
is that how its spelled i forgot

i was on ultra nightmare too

[tribal rivet]

Kadingir Sanctum! I’m diving into that one today no double jump 😄

one of my favorite maps. AFD and D’Nur rock, too. It’s funny how we have so much freedom in that map, but we don’t take it. Cause cheese. Same way with dnur. You can cheese all wraith arenas

plus running to other arenas may cause enemies to despawn which may affect combat rating

[elder meadow]

i just wish d'nur had original music instead of just reusing music from the previous levels

[lusty nova]

How do I do nightmare difficulty? I've done ultra violence but I don't see the option for nightmare in the settings menu

[real hawk]

You need to select it when making a new game. You can't change difficulty to Nightmare or go from Nightmare to a lower difficulty.

[lusty nova]

That's what I'm trying to do, I just don't see where I put it to that difficulty

[real hawk]

Just choose start game and select difficulty from there maybe? Instead of via settings

[lusty nova]

I click on campaign, click on new slot, then I have start campaign and settings avalible

[real hawk]

click start campaign

[lusty nova]

Oh there it is. Wow I'm dumb. Thanks

[real hawk]

Have fun being 2 shot and always having no armor =p lol

[lusty nova]

Wahoo

[weary willow]

First argent cell didnt appear for me at samuel? Wtf

[tribal rivet]

weird, got pics / video?

[surreal sinew]

My game crashes when I load into levels when I am connected to tv, I play on a gaming laptop. Know any solutions?

[weary willow]

I think ita cause the game has deleted all my weapon upgrades etc. Cant even earn weapon upgrade points lol

[hidden aurora]

Is doom 2016 meant to look like it has tv static?

[tardy forge]

you can turn it off in the options

[elder meadow]

the setting is called film grain if you want to turn it down

[stoic crest]

Doom 2016 is just the extended tutorial for Doom Eternal - change my mind

[violet hinge]

https://i.imgur.com/mHbSPWi.png

I'm getting awfully close

once I hit 666 I'm not going to play it again

[fresh hearth]

It is law you do this with all DOOM games

[urban moon]

so guys and galls, does anyone know in what level SkullHacker is in the game?

[elder meadow]

lazarus labs

[south junco]

I'm sorry I will not follow that law

[crystal orbit]

Doom Eternal you will go over 666 hours.... And have to make it 666,666

[violet hinge]

Indeed

[scarlet gorge]

Indeed!

[real hawk]

Indeed?

[elder meadow]

Vega, can I beat Resource Operations on Nightmare?

[scarlet gorge]

Indeed!

[elder meadow]

Thanks buddy

[tribal rivet]

Vega, hello, are you VEGA? The sentient intelligence assigned to Mars?

[silent meteor]

Yo I finally got all the achievements in Doom 2016

[timber wadi]

I'm still working on that, mine has a bit of a bug where I don't get the achievement for getting all the runes unlocked even though I've gotten them all

[sinful beacon]

I have a bug where its not registering one of the secrets in argent facility

[flint dune]

@timber wadi it’s a common bug, happened to me too. You need to make an entirely new campaign and play through it and get all the runes on the first run, going back to find one you missed will mess it up so just make sure you find all of them the first time.

@sinful beacon Same thing basically, instead restart the level from the beginning.

Sucks but that’s really the only way to fix it

[sinful beacon]

wait so it wont work from a fresh start and i just have to restart the level

or restart until it registers

[flint dune]

Yeah just restart the level

[night ice]

thank god doom 2016 multiplayers alive

[timber wadi]

Ah damn it! Well I guess I'll need to get a few other achievements while I'm at it as well

I am not the villian of this story

I do what i do because there is no choice

[sage patio]

Just preodered eternal deluxe

Me too!

[timber wadi]

I've had the standard edition pre-ordered since August and I'm so fed up with waiting

[main dagger]

Couple more days

[timber wadi]

I've been repeating that in my head for the whole week, and it can't be Friday soon enough

[main dagger]

🤣

[timber wadi]

If only I could sleep for more than 7 hours

[sage patio]

Doom Eternal and Animal Crossing come out the day before my 18th bday

Best gift

Matt McMuscles (@MattMcMuscles)

Finished up the script for the next What Happened, and it's currently being edited. Very pleased with this one, as it chronicles a game that had a myriad of long developmental issues, but wound up being one of the more successful titles of 2016!

[sweet solar]

did you guys see that someone ported the mp weapons to campaign?

[devout ibex]

did these MP weapons come with another kind of mod, or just the one we got in MP?

[sweet solar]

https://www.reddit.com/r/DOOM2016Mods/comments/fj44i5/doom_2016_multiplayer_weapons_in_singleplayer/

[tribal rivet]

Yep! There’s a doom 2016 modding discord where it was posted, but I haven’t used it myself

[fierce wasp]

Hey, in the second mission, on the first "big arena" right before getting the chainsaw there are some elevators speeding down in the left side. How do i stop them to get plataforms? Ive seen people do it

but im losing my mind cuz i cannot figure it out

found it

im a dumb dumb

[harsh relic]

@fierce wasp theres a control panel with a big red button, press it and they'll stop

Its to the left of the door and the right of the elevators

[tough moon]

Hey, does anyone know, is it possible to complete each "level" 100% before going to the next one?

[grim heron]

is it possible yes

but if you do miss anything it's okay, you can go back to previous levels at any time

[tribal rivet]

You can also jump onto the fence in res ops crane room to get on top
And yes you can 100%, load checkpoint or go back to the mission to work on it more. Unless it’s ultra nightmare!! That 100% is trickier!

[stoic shell]

I have beaten Doom like a boss!

[flint dune]

Yeah but if you’re trying to get the “Circle is complete” trophy, going back and doing all the runes you missed will screw it up and you’ll have to start a new campaign to get the achievement. So make sure you find every rune through your first run.

[rare lagoon]

not had that issue

[flint dune]

Lucky you, it’s pretty common...imagine making an entirely new campaign and having to play through the whole thing for one achievement .-.

I thought they’d fix the bug in time, never happened. There’s also this part in Advanced Research Complex, if you die in the arena right afterwards you’ll be locked from reentering after you respawn and you gotta play the entire level again...

[elder meadow]

does anybody wanna play Doom multiplayer?

[arctic shard]

does anybody wanna play Doom multiplayer?
@elder meadow i play multi often

[lyric ermine]

I remember why I stopped playing when I got to Hell

I fuckin hated it

Why is there a flying meatball head

Memories are returning

[tribal rivet]

@flint dune which ARC arena I’ve never heard of that bug

[flint dune]

@lyric ermine there’s another meatball in Doom Eternal so have fun

[elder meadow]

Just lob rockets into it's mouth till it goes nuts. If it swallows one it's an insta-kill

[flint dune]

Big green orbs, they’re scarce though, so use your BFG wisely

You can only hold up to 3 as well

[timid citrus]

i told myself last night im not going to play doom anymore till eternal comes out to increase my hype and let me refresh myself after playing almost nothing but 2016 for the past month, but its all i can think about

[spark heron]

after countless deaths, i have finally beaten doom on nightmare, and i will not be attempting ultra-nightmare, lol

[rain gazelle]

I got the game working, but after a few hours of play... the game just freezes

I might have a lack of RAM for it to run well

[worthy depot]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lr2JybwCjP8

[mystic ivy]

Ohhhh thats what those are

[flint dune]

@tribal rivet Also it’s the arena where the elevator locks and you fight two Barons at the end. Sorry I meant to answer your question earlier.

[elder meadow]

Currently trying to pistol the Spider mastermind to death on UV

[flint dune]

Hah good luck

[elder meadow]

Thanks! I’ve been able to get a quarter of its health down

[tribal rivet]

Softlocked you there?

@elder meadow that’s a good tactic although a bit tedious! PONE really teaches you, try without equipment and it’s nuts

[lyric ermine]

So they have a name

Cacodemon wasnt what I'd think of for a first name

[flint dune]

@tribal rivet So if you died within that arena, respawning to the area right before you enter would be locked with no way of opening the door. This only occurs if you don’t press the button on the panel to display that weird hologram of people running before entering first try. Idk it’s weird I’ve tested it three times and yeah.

[tribal rivet]

i havent seen that...
time to finish the last run before eternal 💔

[shadow hinge]

Well I beat the first level on UN

I wonder if I could actually complete the whole game on UN before Eternal releases

[crystal falcon]

@everyone me and another player are looking for players who want to boost XP on DOOM.

[worldly magnet]

1. @ everyone dosent work here for obvious reasons
2. you can ask people in #doom-eternal

[crystal falcon]

Xbox One BTW!

[worldly magnet]

@crystal falcon wait, doom 2016 xp?

i got that mixed up, sorry

[crystal falcon]

Yes.

[worldly magnet]

ok then this is the correct chat

[crystal falcon]

Sorry for tagging everyone, just trying to finish up the achievements before Eternal. 🙂

[worldly magnet]

we have that tag disables since we have 23.6 thousand members here

[crystal falcon]

Makes sense.

Glad to be here though!

[worldly magnet]

👍

[hot ocean]

do demons have more HP in nightmare, or is their AI just better

or both

[grim heron]

they do more damage, and attack more often

[hot ocean]

oh

thats pretty good to hear, so weapons all do the same damage and the same combos work

[grim heron]

yep

[hot ocean]

nice, thanks

[grim heron]

watch out for those Imps. charged fireballs do 75 damage on Nightmare

[hot ocean]

sure

i played UV a few times, planning to do a nightmare run this week

[little crater]

One thing i dont like about Doom 2016 is that armor is just a second health bar unlike og Doom where it was a damage reducer like actual armor until you didnt have any left

[flint dune]

Yeah but it gets ripped away a lot faster than Hp. I’m pretty sure the damage done to armor is greater than to your health bar. It’s better than Doom 3’s method though. Armor in that game is practically useless

[little crater]

Still need to play that one, after i get doom eternal with Doom 64 i will have them all

[flint dune]

Nice

[little crater]

Nearly done with my nightmare run near the end of Lazarus Labs

[flint dune]

Good luck with the Cyberdemon then. He isn’t hard but his Laser is basically a one shot on Nightmare

[elder meadow]

@crystal falcon I’ve got Doom on my switch, hmu and I can give you my friend code and we can boost

[raven parrot]

Restarted yesterday on hurt me plenty to try that difficulty

[crystal falcon]

@elder meadow that’s a thing? Sounds good to me brother. I appreciate it. I hate to boost it but I want to solely focus on Eternal when it comes out.

[tribal rivet]

imps have slightly more hp from my understanding, but its not noticeable very much. i cant remember exactly, but something like instead of x amount of HAR bullets to stagger, its a hair more, or add a melee in

[flint dune]

I’m pretty sure enemies just have higher resistance to damage

[little crater]

I mean that's effectively health

[flint dune]

I suppose

[sudden swallow]

I tried nightmare and died on the first mission

[flint dune]

You’ll get better as you progress

[tribal rivet]

Early game is the toughest

[barren ravine]

man i can't even touch 2016 anymore

[elder meadow]

is anyone up for some doom multiplayer (2016)

[elder meadow]

alright i just 100% doom 2016 on ultra violence

^ nice one mate

[hot ocean]

Earlygame is always hard since you don't have double jump, infinite ammo and guess siege mode cancels

I am dying a lot, but each fight is really really fun

[elder meadow]

if you are good at dodging they are easy

[winged wigeon]

Oh man. The multiplayer community is not gonna be happy when they read this. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/doom-eternal-doesnt-have-deathmatch-because-the-mo/1100-6474831/

[elder meadow]

How long is the 2016 doom campaign

[tribal rivet]

Depends really, for a first run? Levels can take upwards of an hour if you explore. Depending on the map really. And if you get stuck. Follow the green lights! @elder meadow

[elder meadow]

So how many hours you would say if you just rip and teared without exploring and on easiest mode

I'd say 3-4 hours if you're killing everything not really exploring

[west remnant]

usually 11 to 18 i think

[grim heron]

i think it took me 12 hours my first run
that was on normal with a medium amount of exploring

[exotic cave]

3-4 is definitely near-speedrun level

[west remnant]

could easily do it in <10

3-4 would probably involve some skipping

[elder meadow]

Wtf now i dont know who to trust

Just play the game man

Ill just go with its a pretty short game

[west remnant]

https://howlongtobeat.com/game.php?id=2708

[elder meadow]

If you're on the easiest difficulty, it's really short

You already know i go for that normal difficulty

[rustic horizon]

If you're on Ultra-Nightmare though?

[elder meadow]

Dont say that name

[west remnant]

id give you 11 hours if its ur first playthrough on normal

[grim heron]

same

[elder meadow]

Thats a lot

[grim heron]

well that's definitely what the data shows

[elder meadow]

For a non story game

[grim heron]

if it's your first time playing you still have to explore a bit to find out what to do and where to go

[burnt badger]

Well it depends a lot on whether you got for many secrets and upgrades

[west remnant]

plenty of time in between now and eternal release

[elder meadow]

I explore in every game

But you said no exploring

You gotta choose one

[west remnant]

just play the game and take as long as you want then

[elder meadow]

Gotta show the creators some respect

[burnt badger]

You can just smash your way through everything, but there's a lot of stuff to find, and some of it is well hidden which can take a long time

[elder meadow]

Want to finish it before eternal

[grim heron]

go for it

[west remnant]

if you play non stop then you should be good there about 13 levels i think so just keep that in mind and youll be good

[elder meadow]

Thx for the feedback guys, and yes i guess i will spare you all

[west remnant]

have fun

[elder meadow]

No u

Lol ok bye

[rustic horizon]

Good luck mate, get it done and kill everything

If you don't know what to do shoot it till it dies

[elder meadow]

[hot ocean]

hrmm, are imp fireballs scripted? also is there a way to "properly" dodge enemy projectiles

i dont want to memorize spawns for each level but i also feel like i randomly get hit a lot

[elder meadow]

Enemies shoot projectiles so that if you're running left, they'll throw a fireball in the exact spot where you're heading so it will collide, just keep running and dodge everything. Also glory killing is invulnerable time so utilise that

[hot ocean]

ah

thats interesting

i thought they always aimed "at" me

thats good to know

[elder meadow]

i have a problem guys

on DOOM 2016 on the level you get the bfg there is a challenge where you have to interact with both runes

At first I passed the mission with only one rune, when trying to replay it, the challenge doesn't get completed even if I interact with the rune without doing the challenge

If somebody would help me, I don't want to restart my nightmare run, and I'm tired of this tedius mission

[winter sequoia]

Guys, do you think it's possible to farm all multiplayer achievements for the multiplayer before Eternal is released?

[pearl light]

You can certainly try. Tell me how it goes

[hoary shell]

It takes about 25 hours of grinding to get them

12 if you boost

So technically yeah

[winter sequoia]

Jesus fucking Christ, fuck me

[hoary shell]

I'm at echelon 9, might go for it

[blissful parrot]

Does anyone know where's astroguy?

[flint dune]

@elder meadow Not sure what you mean. Is the rune challenge not processing as achieved even when you complete it? Or are you trying to get the achievement “The circle is complete” and it won’t give it to you?

@blissful parrot It’s to the right of the first big door you open in hell with a skull switch

[blissful parrot]

Thx

[flint dune]

Np

[elder meadow]

it looks like the game registered the challenge as completed, I got the achievement and everyhting. It's just that when I go into mission select it still shows it as incompleted.

[flint dune]

The only way it could be Incompleted is if you didn’t finish the challenge. If you did then it’s just another overlooked bug :/

[sinful canyon]

If you guys like Doom 2016 Multiplayer Gameplay go check out my video i would appreciate it thank you

[winter sequoia]

no

[old onyx]

https://imgur.com/NzAnu2j

YES! My first Slayer rank in arcade mode

[elder meadow]

Nice!

[old onyx]

Granted that was merely Resource Operations but still

I even placed #2 among my friends list.

[exotic cave]

Resource ops is nasty. I couldnt even get halfway on UN in arcade, yet I did titan's realm in one go, getting nearly top 500 global score

[old onyx]

I made it to foundry on nightmare before I gave up.

[noble moat]

Switch UN handheld run

I can now pretty reliably almost guaranteed make it to Argent energy tower

[elder meadow]

You got this!!

[noble moat]

I wouldn’t have had to restart if it wasn’t for that bs in Kadinger last week =/

[elder meadow]

I finally got all campaign achievements

Not going for multiplayer

[flint dune]

^

[primal bronze]

I probably broke game, help

[flint dune]

I’m missing about three achievements all of three are from the Multiplayer, I don’t feel like getting them so whatever

How so?

[noble moat]

Climbing this damn tower gives me anxiety

[flint dune]

Ikr

One slip and UN campaign is over

[noble moat]

Nothing is more stupid or disappointing, then ending UN cuz of fall damage

I praise eternal for no falling deaths

[primal bronze]

I collected every little Doom Marines and somehow challenge doesn't want to accomplish

[flint dune]

Yeah don’t you just respawn or something?

Wdym @primal bronze ?

[noble moat]

Yep. U take a bit of damage to health and shields but teleport back up

[ornate basin]

Like jedi fallen order

[flint dune]

Thank goodness

[elder meadow]

jedi fallen order sucked

mediocre campaign in my opinion

[flint dune]

Never played it

[ornate basin]

I thought it was great

Fun star wars souls game

[primal bronze]

I mean @flint dune that I collected everything and challenge for weapon point doesn't want to accomplish
,,Collect 2 collectibles on the level"

I've got them and challenge just...glitched ?

[flint dune]

Oh, yep. Just restart the level

Idk the Campaign has a lot of progression bugs, they’ve seem to have become way more prominent in the last year

[primal bronze]

And one little thing
3rd mission, all things collected, original DOOM map found but one secret is not reveald. Any ideas ?

[ornate basin]

I hope there is a lot more collectibles in eternal

[noble moat]

WHAT the fuck bullshit is this

[flint dune]

??

[noble moat]

I’m riding the fucking robot thing up, and it flings me off

[flint dune]

Bruh. That’s some BS right there

[noble moat]

That’s fucking stupid. This is the most stupid level ever made

No lack of skill here nothing, just whoops u fell hope u like those 2-3 hours to get here again

[flint dune]

Yeah I always thought the Argent Tower was kind of a weird level

Sorry that happened

[noble moat]

I hate it more because the first 1-4 levels are so boring too

[flint dune]

Yeah, kind of slow too. Like there’s a lot of “Press a button, watch the hologram” stuff in the beginning and you can’t progress until it’s over

[old onyx]

Wraith is streaming Doom 2016 to hype up towards Doom Eternal's launch.

[kindred trench]

there...finished the campaign 100% on ultra-violence

[ivory marsh]

I just breached the beginners only playlist for multiplayer

and now I can't find anyone

[last stirrup]

So i just fought an ugly Spider and died, may i have some tips?

[elder meadow]

Shoot lots of bullets

[last stirrup]

[kindred trench]

dipping my toe into the multiplayer

[echo drum]

Can you replay the missions before without losing any progress?

[kindred trench]

some of them

actually yeah you can

for all of them

dunno why i said "some"

anyway multiplayer is actually good except for the performance slowdowns getting me killed

[echo drum]

All right then, time to explore the stuff I've missed

[last stirrup]

Almost killed that Spider, oof.

[hot cosmos]

i wish the doom 2016 classic maps didn't feel so weird

[last stirrup]

I DID IT

What a great game tbh.

[kindred trench]

yeah

the multiplayer is honestly okay too

like, when you're doing deathmatch with a rocket launcher it feels a lot like an old arena shooter

[last stirrup]

Is it ok to spoil here?

[kindred trench]

the challenges are neat too

[noble moat]

U mean spoil 2016? I mean game has been out for 4 years now

[last stirrup]

You damn Samuel.

What's the lore of this Doom, btw? I thought it was just slaying demons endlessly, but now i'm intrigued.

[warped moss]

Essentially, you wake up from a tomb that has been taken over to the UAC mars base, which you find has now been overrun by demons. The head of the facility seeks out your help because member of his staff had been plotting behind his back to unleash the demons. You're his nuclear option that he's trying to aggressively railroad so that you become a bandaid solution.
A lot of the lore outside of this is delivered by encountering a character or map for the first time or by finding tablets (both the technology kind and the stone manuscript kind) scattered around.

[feral minnow]

Hey, for maximum damage to a mancubus- should I be aiming for the head or exposed stomache?

[warped moss]

The head is good for high damage per shot, the stomach is good for consistent damage.
It all depends on how close you wanna get to one.

[kindred trench]

welp i made my first snapmap

[last stirrup]

But, how did Doom Guy/Slayer/Marine (Idk which one) ended in a tomb? Did he wanted to sleep?

[feral minnow]

So the head is best, sweet. Does this change for the cyber-mancubus is it called? The one with the green oculus rift?

[kindred trench]

and it's a remake of this classic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-_-HeKxQhg

[warped moss]

||He was locked there by the demons after they dropped an entire temple on him just to knock him unconscious. The UAC then found him and dragged him back to the base after an excursion into hell||

As for the mancubus, yeah that still stands for the most part; The main difference is health and them having a different attack

[feral minnow]

Awesome! Thanks

[elder meadow]

Gauss Rifle a Mancubus face for extra death

[warped moss]

Cyber-Mancubi lay down puddles of damaging slime instead of fireballs and can aim farther out.
-Yesssss, the gauss rifle is great for taking down a lot of heavyweight enemies.

[last stirrup]

Wasn't a better option to kill him tho? Even if that means no more Doom.

[warped moss]

They tried that in the very first Doom game at the end of Episode 1.
Episode 2 is him establishing that dying is not gonna be enough.

[last stirrup]

What Doom is this? First one?

[warped moss]

Yep!

[last stirrup]

O

Is Doom Eternal like Doom 2 then?

[warped moss]

It's unclear if he's that exact same guy, but a lot of the same beats to the original doom story seem to apply to the Doom Slayer.
-And yeah, Doom Eternal is kind of like a reboot of Doom 2 since they reintroduced a lot of the monsters that got added in that game to the new Doom 2016 formula.

[kindred trench]

waiting for doom 3 3

[last stirrup]

Doom 3 Part II

[warped moss]

Personally I always called Doom 2016 "Doom 4 2"

Or rather, Doom Eternal

[last stirrup]

I guess i'll play Eternal in PS4, i finished 2016 in Switch.

The graphics are ok, but blood doesn't look like blood.

[warped moss]

Yeah, the Switch is more of an amazing port in the sense that it's a miracle of dark science that it runs as smoothly as it does.
That being said I heard Eternal was made with the switch in mind to start with, so hopefully that and the delay do it more justice.

[last stirrup]

What's the difficulty gap between Hurt Me Plenty and Ultraviolence? I finished the game in the former.

[warped moss]

Hurt Me Plenty is the "normal" mode. Ultra-Violence is "hard" The main difference tends to be enemies doing more damage and having slightly different layouts.

[last stirrup]

I can't imagine the last zone before Spider in Ultraviolence or Nightmare, big oof.

[warped moss]

I am not a badass enough babe to consider Ultra-Violence, but thankfully you can at least adjust the difficulty as you go to either tone it down or get a taste of pain.

[noble moat]

It’s actually pretty easy, each zone gives u 1-2 BFG cells

And I think the third one gives quad damage which u save for the hard stuff

[warped moss]

Runes definitely help though since they give you perks like "Enemies drop ammo when glory killed", and you can upgrade those runes with challenges.

[elder meadow]

Runes for sure, infinite ammo is a game changer

[warped moss]

One upgraded perk even lets you find BFG ammo out of glory kills.

[last stirrup]

Infinite Ammo?

[noble moat]

Rich get richer. Broken af

[flint dune]

Hm should I do another Nightmare run before Eternal?

[warped moss]

If you have more than a certain amount of armor, your ammo is infinite until you get knocked below it.

[noble moat]

Sure why not. Get yourself ready for eternal if you are getting it this weeek

[flint dune]

Yep I am, can’t wait

Also yeah Rich get Richer makes the game extremely easy if you’re good at dodging

[warped moss]

Rich Get Richer is trivial to upgrade too provided you recognize the area it's in.

[last stirrup]

I'm more at going face to face than dodging, Mancubus/Cybermancubus or Revenants are 2hard2dodge for me.

[upbeat forge]

whats the best level to pop some imps for the explosive shotty?

[elder meadow]

Early levels since it's mostly imps

[noble moat]

Lowkey level 4

You should have maxed shotgun by foundry
