#

Because ammo placement

#

They give you a million assault rifle rounds and rockets but the rest are really rare

#

And I ended up using the same 2-3 guns

#

This is just me but I find the weapon balancing and how they place ammo in maps very wonky

latent oxide
#

yeah, weapon balancing in Doom is clunky

#

basically, the first half of weapons is outclassed by the second half

#

and RL is just awful

blissful imp
#

just like ssg in doom 2

drowsy solstice
#

in doom 2 the pump shotgun is much more efficient against small groups

#

sorry what is RL? @latent oxide

latent oxide
#

Rocket Launcher

#

it sucks in Doom 16 and it sucks even harder in multiplayer

#

used to do 55 dmg on direct hit, that's just pathetic

drowsy solstice
#

maybe that's why they just flood you with ammo

#

making the grenade shot utterly useless while turning the RL into a glorified grenade launcher

latent oxide
#

thankfully, they buffed RL in Doom Eternal

#

that's one thing I like about its rebalances

drowsy solstice
#

mmhmm

#

it is quite jarring how the guns feel

#

it's like there are too many guns

latent oxide
#

I still don't like them nerfing ammo capacity

#

they said it's encourage people to switch games, resolving the issue where people ran through the entirety of Doom 16 with just Super Shotgun

#

maybe they should have fixed the weapon balance instead of artificially forcing the player to use different weapons

#

Super Shotgun is actually alright in Doom 16 in its stock form, it just gets stupidly OP when fully upgraded

#

they nerfed SSG in Doom Eternal by removing reload speed and "two shots before reloading" upgrades which was good enough

#

plus a lot of the higher-tier demos cannot be approached at close range

blissful imp
#

The only thing i hate with the Plasma rifle, he shoot really little blue balls

latent oxide
#

Plasma Rifle particles were different in E3 2015 demo and Closed Alpha, BTW

blissful imp
#

Timecode ?

harsh smelt
#

6:30

latent oxide
#

it's in the link

blissful imp
#

Lmao okay i'm dumb

#

Wtf, it look so much better, and the absolute Long SSG

latent oxide
#

what are you talking about, SSG looks same

blissful imp
#

Yeah

But i love E3 Demo of Doom, it never show how to play the game lmao

latent oxide
#

some differences from the final game

#

HUD is monochrome, different imp design, different pickup designs

#

glory kills are slower

blissful imp
#

The Super chainsaw tho

latent oxide
#

Chainsaw is weird here

#

it does not consume fuel when used for some reason

blissful imp
#

Yeah, maybe it was for the demo

And the name "Super" chainsaw

latent oxide
#

I have three theories for why it is:

  1. it did not consume fuel when used on small demons
  2. they simply did not implement fuel consumption yet
  3. they cheated and gave Chainsaw unlimited fuel for the demo
#

also, it has 6 fuel units right off the bat, in the final game you start with 3 and it goes up to 7

#

here's an interesting thing, in 2015 Closed Alpha, there's no Pistol

#

slot 1 is just Chainsaw

#

this suggests that Chainsaw was your original emergency weapon which would explain why it does not consume fuel in the demo

#

Pistol was apparently added quite late in development

hushed vault
#

I feel like they were originally gonna go with the old space marine storyline too considering the Slayer's Mark isn't on the helmet and 2016's story was apparently written really, really late into development

latent oxide
#

there were at least one iteration of the story before the final one, too

hushed vault
#

so late that Hugo refused to specify because it would make him look irresponsible

latent oxide
#

the earlier story featured more characters

#

your mission control was a more humorous character named Spencer

#

there was no Samuel Hayden but there was a character that appears to be his prototype named Jack

hushed vault
#

chair Hayden

latent oxide
#

Olivia Pierce was there, though

#

so was VEGA

#

you would also find audio logs throughout the game like in Doom 3

blissful imp
#

Weird, Grenade launcher

#

Because i am a terrorist i'm gonna to do a NM run with

-no HUD
-Doom classic weapon
-no ammo upgrade
-no reticule or simple reticule

#

Its bassicaly the Bobthebob5 challenge with extra-step

#

I'm gonna to be in pain

#

And all that on Handled mode of nintendo switch

#

I love how possesed soldier take ~5 shotgun shell just to be staggered

elder meadow
#

What’s NM stand for?

flint dune
#

Nightmare

drowsy solstice
#

@latent oxide yeah I agree with all that

#

it gets even worse in eternal when they keep forcing you to use chainsaw

tight bay
#

Anyone down for some tdm on ps4? (2016)

drowsy solstice
#

@blissful imp I feel like the pump shotgun should always deal exactly half damage as super shotgun

#

the point of super shotgun is that you get to have one very high damage blast

#

at the expense of more ammo consumption and less versatility

still rune
#

i prefer doom 2016 over eternal

#

like dont get me wrong eternal is super fluid and stuff but 2016 did the atmosphere and stuff better

drowsy solstice
#

if only I could just tweak the pump shotgun to my liking

#

But the design is also very odd

#

Why is the pump travel so short?

#

It's too short to travel all the way to fit the shell

elder meadow
#

Doom 2016 was my first official experience with the franchise

blissful imp
#

Me doom 2016 its my second favorite doom

drowsy solstice
#

according to doom wiki

#

super shotgun deals 960 damage per shot

#

pump shotgun deals 240

#

what the fuck is this

blissful imp
#

Wtf, 960 damage lmao

drowsy solstice
#

with double trouble it deals 1920 damage per 2 shots

#

hence why it is so broken

elder meadow
#

Huh explains why the pathetic imp that's been sniping me from across the map evaporates and melts when I shoot it with it

drowsy solstice
#

yes

#

also why the base shotgun is so useless

elder meadow
#

I felt a little guilty only using the super shotgun after getting it but at like the last quarter of the game I started only using it for pinkys,hell knights,and revenants until the last few missions where I was like FUCK IT and used it like the pump

#

Which means all the time

drowsy solstice
#

i just use the SSG

#

i have the double shot uprade

#

so it just makes the regular shotgun redundant

latent oxide
#

WTF

#

it does 4 times more damage

#

that's ridiculous

drowsy solstice
#

3 times more

elder meadow
#

Yeah but the pump does have the explosive shot which is very help for sniping

latent oxide
#

960 / 240 = 4

drowsy solstice
#

it does 4 times the damage

#

100% + 300% = 400%

latent oxide
#

oh

#

didn't realize my phrasing was incorrect

drowsy solstice
#

it's common dw

latent oxide
#

Yeah but the pump does have the explosive shot which is very help for sniping
@elder meadow made redundant by Rocket Launcher and Gauss Cannon

elder meadow
#

Yeah but when you first get it and say to the imp's who've been shooting fireballs at you "I can do that too now"

drowsy solstice
#

yeah the RL makes the explosive shot redundant

#

and you're better off using the buckshot on the SSG

latent oxide
#

in Doom Eternal, they buffed it and made it destroy weak points so it's more useful there

drowsy solstice
#

imo having the weakspots in the first place constricts gameplay but it's just me

latent oxide
#

probably one of the reasons they made the demons more aggressive

noble moat
#

Maxed explosive shot is hella good

#

It does high damage and staggers

latent oxide
#

e.g. Arachnotron is a pain in the ass until you shoot off its cannon

elder meadow
#

Maurauders aren't bad enemies

blissful imp
#

Hey Bob, i'm doin' the NM run without ammo upgrade

#

With extra step

noble moat
#

Nice

blissful imp
#

With No HUD basically lmao

noble moat
#

Eh No HUD is just to add a handicap doesn’t add any skill

#

Now No HUD no button prompts in Metro Last light is amazing. Makes the game immersive af

blissful imp
#

Yeah i know

But no HUD Doom is so good to not stressed out and concentrate

noble moat
#

If not knowing when you run out of ammo doesnt stress you out go for it. Especially since you said no ammo upgrades means that’s gunna happen a bunch

blissful imp
#

Yeah i know

#

This is why i make no hud run

#

I never use both

#

But yeah, explosive shot is better

latent oxide
#

Summoners were originally named Archviles

#

I guess they renamed it when they realized it has little in common with the original Archvile

blissful imp
#

Summoner are Imps tho lmao

ornate basin
#

Everything are imps

#

Prowlers are teleporting imps
Gargoyles are flying imps
Summoners are squid imps
Barrons are musley imps
Cacodemons are round imps

noble moat
#

Cacodemon are fat imps

elder meadow
#

Cacodemon is lazy pinky who FLLLLOOOOOAAATTTS

noble moat
#

There are no mods worth using

elder meadow
#

Well what system you playin

#

Oh try right click but idk I play ps4

noble moat
#

My guy just said try right clicking

elder meadow
#

I thought that's what you did cause you don't aim in doom

#

You're weapon mods

#

That's it

#

Hm

ornate basin
#

Press the glory kill button

flint dune
#

In Snapmap you can use fists if you take the player’s weapons away. In the campaign you can only jab with your gun

noble moat
#

And you already want mods

blissful imp
#

I love Doom 2016 MP, its not dead lmao

Idk why and how

#

I always found game in (French) ~6p.m (On NA server)

covert marsh
#

Yes

#

Oh, no there’s no multiplayer in the campaign

blissful imp
#

No there is no coop

covert marsh
#

There is a multiplayer however, it’s not great but it’s playable

#

I preferred to play snapmap in DOOM 2016(kinda wish we could use ALL the demons though.)

flint dune
#

There’s a way to get the summoner in Snapmap actually

#

Wish Snapmap was in Eternal, really enjoyed playing it in 2016 too

noble moat
#

Something something too much work for the time to create/ wanted to spend most of dev time on the single player experience which is what doom is Truly about

#

I believe they said something along these lines

flint dune
#

I know, although they did spend much more time on the MP for Eternal than with 2016

blissful imp
#

Doom Eternal Switch Info or consequence doomguy_god_hd

blissful imp
#

Why i saw a people with a grey name

elder meadow
#

I mean, they're making Eternal have modding support so we'll likely get something more complex than snapmap(I hope)

flint dune
#

Well only one platform (PC) can use mods, which is unfortunate :/

elder meadow
#

Custom BSP/Level design creation would be great.

#

Something like the Unreal Editor maybe. That would be fantastic.

#

I wish more games had something like that. Hammer editor, Unreal editor, etc...

flint dune
#

Yeah agreed

noble moat
#

No they are not making eternal have modding support @elder meadow

#

They said they don’t know how well id tech 7 will work with mods/ are unsure if eternal will have mod support by the time they figure it out,
However they did say the next id tech 7 game should definitely have mod support by then

hushed crypt
#

I just got 2016 so I could catch up on lore

#

It plays nicely hut I'm also on console

#

I just started a nightmare run so if anyone could give me some controller tips or tips in general that'd be appreciated

flint dune
#

Turn up your sensitivity if you haven’t already and never stop moving, never. The Imps in this game deal 75 damage per hit on NM and sometimes they can hitscan

#

Also, there’s a lot of cheese in this game. If you want I can tell you some good combos with runes and stuff but it kind of makes the game too easy.

noble moat
#

^

#

Make your sensitivity super high, but manageable,
High sensitivity is useless if you miss everything

drowsy solstice
#

yep

wide stirrup
#

does anyone else have toooooo much trouble getting past the two first stages of ultra nightmare lol

#

something tells me that the first levels are the hardest in UN

open shell
#

yeah, they totally are
those possessed soldiers and imps are pretty mean when you don't have frags or the nade mod

spiral cloud
#

hOw do i beat the cyberdemon??

blissful imp
#

Shoot until it die

#

And BFG to stun him

red flume
#

Foundry is easily the hardest level in the game imo. Especially the bottom gore nest fight that one always wrecks me.

noble moat
#

I find foundry quite easy tbh

blissful imp
#

Foundry=easy but

The yellow key respawn with no ammo=death

The gore nest corner=death

elder meadow
#

Worst demon in the game

slender cypress
#

Doom 2016 wow

drowsy solstice
#

@spiral cloud use BFG to nuke him when he makes those walls

#

and then slap him with buckshot

tight bay
#

Anyone wanna play some tdm?

spiral cloud
#

i acc beat the mf already

red flume
#

does super turbo turkey puncher count as a secret? I forget.

#

did you grab the mega health above the air vent hatch thing?

#

it comes with a surprise 😉

blissful imp
#

The last secret ?

#

What secret?

#

And what secret did you found ?

#

Hah yes

#

That secret

#

Its not that important, Because you always need even to restart level for 100% mastery completion

#

Sorry i mispelled my message

lethal yarrow
#

Gotta say, having returned to Doom (2016) from Doom Eternal replay burnout, after a long absence, and having made up my mind that it was inferior and fearing it'd be hard to return to...
It's fine, it's still excellent, and it's different enough that its combat system seems fresh again despite having the same enemies as Eternal.
Eternal is a lot less derivative from 2016 than I had remembered, it's much closer to a rework than an enhancement.

red flume
#

Fully agreed. Combat wise they're 2 different games and I play one or the other depending on my mood.

On the whole I prefer 2016 for it's methodical combat and more grounded narrative, but they're both excellent games.

#

it's weird since mega healths are sometimes secrets, sometimes not

blissful imp
#

Hah with a Horrible Face

blissful imp
#

The Barrel on Nightmare

blissful imp
#

Yeah

lethal yarrow
#

I remember thinking barrels in Eternal were a little underwhelming.
But in 2016 it's more like: "oh cool, I can kill this imp across the arena with a careful barrel explosion. oh, what's this chain rea--<<explodes>>

elder meadow
#

For some reason Samuel Hayden's in-game/in-files model is called Spencer in doom 2016

ornate basin
#

Welcome I’m Spencer I believe we can work together to resolve this problem in a way that benefits us both

#

Mick got screwed with the official soundtrack

#

Which is just really sad

noble moat
#

Now if whoever it was gives him more time to fix it Then he should be fine. But as of yet the next doom game won’t have Mick music.

ornate basin
#

Perfect time to do a more doom 64 or 3 like game I guess

noble moat
#

That won’t happen

#

64 and 3 and 2016 multiplayer were shit on by the community/ majority,
A smart company will decide that’s it and not go back. Which sucks, but that’s what happens

#

Although in 64 case it was more so lack of clarity/ communication than anything else

#

Since everyone thought it was just a 64 port of 93

ornate basin
#

It’s original title was doom the absolution if they kept that maybe doom 64 wouldn’t have been so forgotten

noble moat
#

Oh 100% if it had a different name It woulda been better distinguished

ornate basin
#

Nintendo had a put 64 in the title fetish

blissful imp
#

Eternal plasma rifle>Doom original plasma rifle

elder meadow
#

i personally prefer the 2016 model, it looks better imo

#

eternal's is the one from the original but now in full 3d

#

2016 plasma didn't sound good to me.

red flume
#

2016 plasma sounds like slapping raw meat together

elder meadow
#

i cant relate to that

#

more like electricity bullets

flint dune
#

I think any of the trash cans have it, could be wrong though

tribal rivet
#

ill check res ops first

#

thats it res ops trash cans

#

thank you!

vernal bolt
#

i bought doom 2016 last summer for my friend's birthday, did i accidentally told him to go to hell?

blissful imp
#

Why lmao ?

#

I mean, Doom 2016 on NM without ammo upgrade, with the SGG is gonna to be interesting

#

Litteraly 10 shot

#

I can kill only 2 hell knight with these

#

But its the challenge to be trained at Doom Eternal

noble moat
#

If I did it on a switch you can do it

#

Don’t rely too heavily on SSG

#

Get used to it, because flaming hook for eternal seems essential. But get used to grenade launcher more on combat shotgun

#

Sticky grenades seem like the go to for crowd control/ weak point breakage

blissful imp
#

Yeah, i can do it, its not that hard

#

Its just not the same gameplay

#

I feel more the "Doom" Original about ammo

#

And because of that i use the Assault rifle

#

And RL

golden cosmos
#

@fair cedar do you play Doom 2016 deathmatch?

fair cedar
#

Used to, haven't played since Eternal came out

golden cosmos
#

Love the Reaper gun

#

and the Hellshot

drowsy solstice
#

Samuel Hayden is such a badass in doom 2016

gusty onyx
#

He is? What'd he do? Besides talk

lethal yarrow
#

The longer Samuel Hayden remains on Mars, the more loquacious he becomes.

drowsy solstice
#

@gusty onyx having a badass voice and a towering design

viral dune
#

So I'm planning on getting all the secret classic maps. Can I obtain all of them through mission select and without completing a level?

flint dune
#

Once you pull the lever and find the area and enter it, yes

blissful imp
#

Doom 2016 without HUD is not that hard

nimble bone
#

Doom 2016, is it available in Steam?

blissful imp
#

Normaly, yes

#

Doom without HUD is very simple if you don't mind your Armor/HP

blissful imp
#

I never played Eternal so, i can't help you for getting Doom 2016

I think you should buy it

#

Cool, better gameplay with Mouse

#

Yeah, try it

Some people think 2016 is better than eternal

But 2016 is not really balanced and you don't move like Eternal

late scroll
#

Samuel Hayden is my favourite character from these new games. His line deliveries are just excellent

blissful imp
#

The only thing is Double jump, there are not other thing

late scroll
#

No monkey bars, no dash, no flame belch, grenades you actually throw so you can't shoot while using them....

#

no ice grenades

#

no enemy weak points

#

there's a hologram item though which acts as a decoy (kind of like Duke Nukem 3D's holoduke)

#

Yes but that doesn't make it un-fun. It's just different

#

Weapons don't have a strategic purpose in 16 like they do in Eternal so you can just fight with whatever weapons you want

#

Plasma Canon doesn't blow up enemy shields

#

oh yes way more

#

and when you upgrade you get bigger boosts

#

Shotgun ammo starts with 20 and when you upgrade it goes up to 30 or something

#

and up and up

#

After playing Eternal it may feel like kid gloves, but if I may say I just started playing it recently and I've been dying a lot so....

#

it's different.

viral dune
#

@elder meadow You played Eternal before 2016?

blissful imp
#

Yeah on full level you can Carry 60 shell lmao

viral dune
#

Well, it is the best if you play 2016 first

late scroll
#

In Eternal they nerfed ammo because they wanted you to use more weapons and to use different weapons to achieve different goals

blissful imp
#

And i'm currently Playing NM with no ammo upgrade

For Eternal

viral dune
#

Doom 2016 might feel too easy and boring for you if you finish Eternal first

late scroll
#

In 2016 it doesn't matter as much. Still has dual weapon upgrades for every gun though

blissful imp
#

Easy, Ultranightmare with no lives

late scroll
#

@elder meadow Hey, original Doom let you have 50. And Doom II let you have 100

viral dune
#

I'm planning on another 2016 walkthrough just to collect all secrets

blissful imp
#

You can have 100 in Doom 1 via Backpack

late scroll
#

I can't do a first run without getting all secrets lol. And secret hunting is so easy in Eternal. That's one thing I like better about 2016 actually

#

@blissful imp Right I forgot that

viral dune
#

I shoot supershotgun to imps all the time, even I know it is wasting of ammo

#

But like, it's satisfied and 100 ammo, so come on

#

I'm so lazy to replay Doom rn Dx

blissful imp
#

And Doom 2016 SSG is so powerfull

viral dune
#

Yes

blissful imp
#

And the Secret give you classic levels and 3d model

viral dune
#

When I switch weapons, the weapons usually looks low quality for a few seconds then goes high quality again

#

Does anyone know how to make weapon textures load faster?

late scroll
#

@blissful imp Eternal secrets give you 3D models too.

#

@gray mango AFAIK there isn't a way as it scales to your system doesn't it? So it loads as fast as your system can handle?

viral dune
#

I have 18 costing things

#

Should I use all of them to my doom weapons upgrade lol

#

Should I turn motion blur on??

blissful imp
#

If you want

#

Motion Blur is for lag tho

viral dune
#

Well I found out that I have mouse input lag in Doom 2016

#

There is no way to fix it

late scroll
#

That's the worst

blissful imp
#

During slow motion.

#

Found a zone with possesed, and let them kill you, and use the Miracle time to explose them

#

I think

burnt badger
#

Yep only during slow-motion, and I recommend turning vacuum off since picking up health seems to actually reduce that slow-mo time

#

As soon as you see the challenge complete, you can put it back on to get all that tasty health your BFG kills got.

blissful imp
#

Yeah

#

Like i said its pretty weird to clip and to be stuck, even if you retry it to escape

blissful imp
#

On ?

red flume
#

same shit on necropolis. went to back track for a secret and had to redo the level.

#

the multiplayer stuff?

blissful imp
#

Yeah

red flume
#

short answer: yes.
longer answer: for the final update they made all past DLC free and integrated it into multiplayer progression.

arctic shard
#

i just play a multiplayer match and i got killed (almost always) immediately by lightning gun (hp 100 armour 15+)

#

is that possible with that gun? iirc, the lightning gun is not that strong

thick heart
#

How fast did you die

#

They might have just been using the alt fire on the floor

arctic shard
#

1v1 within 2 secs

#

alt fire on the floor with lightning gun? ok? may i ask why?

noble moat
#

If you alt fire thr floor it kinda turns into a lightning shotgun

#

That’s the only way I can describe it

blissful imp
#

Alt fire do ~14/20 damage per second

arctic shard
#

that's the thing. i tested it with the bot. I couldnt kill them fast enough.

#

i might try the trick shooting to the floor to see how it ends

noble moat
#

Most likely you have been shot and killed by tons of other things at the exact same time

#

Sniped, Mine. Grenade from behind. Snipers etc

blissful imp
#

Mine, are horrible

elder meadow
#

I play that game on xbox

#

Game pass

blissful imp
#

I play on handled Switch

#

Yeah, but for me its impossible to play on TV

#

Every game i'm bad on tv

flint dune
#

Console is fun to play on, but I agree that PC is just a much better experience

#

Especially for games like Doom...even with high sensitivity on my controller, turn speed still feels a bit slow

blissful imp
#

I don't play with a lot of sensibility

noble moat
#

Subjective

blissful imp
#

Lot of sensibility=/=Skill

noble moat
#

Not u

#

The pc is a better experience.
The better experience is whatever you enjoy most

#

I guarantee even with some miracle $10k rig I won’t have the same experience I get playing in my hands in bed

blissful imp
#

Yeah

noble moat
#

My guy wants Sao

#

I assume 15 on pc is a lot?

#

I don’t believe massive sensitivity makes you better tho

#

I mean yeah you need high sensitivity to turn and such, but are you even hitting your shots?

#

Difficulty?

#

Har?

#

Oh why are you even using that?

#

It’s terrible tbh in 2016. Not even the micro missiles are worth it once u get mini gun

#

I don’t think you know how to use half the guns well in doom,

#

This is the second time you’ve said a gun is incredibly immobile,
Gauss and Minigun

ornate basin
#

The mobile turret is game breaking

noble moat
#

^

ornate basin
#

So is the guass cannon

#

Once you get the guass cannon the game becomes piss easy

noble moat
#

You only ever use Mobile turret when you KNOW, you will kill something, then you swap out right away,

#

Gauss is op for artificial dashing, one shooting low level mobs, Sieging medium mobs etc

ornate basin
#

You could beat the game with nothing but siege mode

#

And you would never die

noble moat
#

True but not fun imo

ornate basin
#

It’s completely busted

noble moat
#

Bro I literally ended that sentence with imo

#

2016 gives you hella ways to cheese the game

ornate basin
#

For some reason when I first got the guass cannon I didn’t get siege mode because I thought It would be bad

blissful imp
#

Because of no ammo upgrade, i never use the SSG

It hurt

ornate basin
#

Oh yeah another game breaking gun

#

The ssg

noble moat
#

Oh flat You can use SSG just can’t cheese it

blissful imp
#

Yeah

#

But 10 shot

ornate basin
#

Which is what it’s designed for

ionic geyser
#

I love doom 2017

noble moat
#

I use it for Razers, hellknights*, revenants

ornate basin
#

Especially when you get the double shot

noble moat
#

Oh I didn’t give it double shot

ionic geyser
#

Hell knight is really strong

noble moat
#

You are not supposed to use it to fully kill any medium monster

#

Ssg is a finisher weapon

ornate basin
#

How long have you been playing 2016

blissful imp
#

No, juste like doom 2 i thinks its more ~4 shot to kill a Hell Knight

ornate basin
#

I think most people would’ve found out how busted the ssg is by now

noble moat
#

I suggest playing on Hurt me plenty One more time before doing UV like u are now

#

Like u said you are having trouble on necropolis and it only gets more intense from there

blissful imp
#

Now i think UV is Boring and easy, weird

noble moat
#

I only ever did nightmare so idk hw it is

#

Oh speaking of it, Amnesia you have siphon grenades yet?

ornate basin
#

I never did UV I went straight to nightmare after HMP

#

You’ll wanna use siphon grenades

noble moat
#

Siphon Grenades with equipment rune is necessity for doom 2016

#

Especially as practice for eternal

2016 is so easy with all the cheese weapons they give you

#

Ssg guass mini gun and siphon grenades

noble moat

That’s why I balanced it out by doing a nightmare no ammo upgrade run

I hated rune trials with a burning passion

Siphon grenade like hologram can be skipped easily

You can’t compare original doom to new doom

YoU cAn OnLy MoVe FoR 3 SeCoNdS

noble moat
#

Then good for you. Don’t

#

But that causes half your problems

#

Game design is fine, you just need to learn it

#

2016 isn’t a focus on one enemy game, it’s a non stop focus this guy switch weapon switch new weapon switch again, grenade siphon GK, rpg this guy mobile turret this gauss dash this guy repeat ever 10 seconds

ornate basin
#

Maybe your just bad...

noble moat
#

Then the game isn’t for you

ornate basin
#

Doom is pretty different from most other modern fps

noble moat
#

And by “most fps” you mean hide behind cover and wait to recharge health right

ornate basin
#

Yeah

arctic shard
#

@noble moat no i looked at the dmg i took. 100+ from lightning gun

ornate basin
#

Regen health games are usually bad

arctic shard
#

if there were other dmgs, i would not ask. It's pretty strange though

noble moat
#

He could have had haste or quad damage on

arctic shard
#

nope

ornate basin
#

Sometimes regen health games can be the worst games of all time

noble moat
#

Headshots
Or just a hacker 2016 multiplayer is riddled with those especially for pc

ornate basin
#

Like postal 3 or duke nukem forever

arctic shard
#

it is the only time i dealt with lightning gun and fell so fast

ornate basin
#

Never play postal 3

noble moat
#

Amnesia I’m not calling you bad. And I’m not ridiculing you in anyway. But you both refuse to learn to play the game how it’s meant to be played. And complain about it

ornate basin
#

It’s the worst game ever

noble moat
#

It’s like me hating dark souls because I have to roll every 3 seconds

#

I just hate games involving rolling every freaking action

arctic shard
#

i usually dont play fps, esp. fps multiplayer. but i really like doom 2016.
perhaps, it depends on your taste

ornate basin
#

Lots of games tell you how to play

noble moat
#

So if it’s a stealth game but you want to play guns ablazing, It’s the devs fault?

ornate basin
#

It’s not 2016s fault if you don’t like the stlye of game don’t play

noble moat
#

That’s not how it works

ornate basin
#

But that’s what doom has always been

noble moat
#

From the sounds of it you would much prefer open world games

ornate basin
#

Play postal 2 if you like open world games

noble moat
#

Can’t say I enjoy glorified just kill people games fluffy

ornate basin
#

Postal 2 isn’t just about killing people

arctic shard
#

or soldat. that game is fun though :))

ornate basin
#

You can be as murdery or not murdery as you want

arctic shard
#

doom 2016 multi matchmaking is broken

noble moat
#

I believe thye mixed all ranks together purely for faster loading times,

ornate basin
#

But isn’t doom a kill everyone game bob

arctic shard
#

yeup. but after a game one side domintating the other, they should shuffle teams. but then the system decides to do a rematch

noble moat
#

No doom is a kill demons with purpose

ornate basin
#

Also 2016 mp is aids

arctic shard
#

it was not fun for the other side when they have to fight top players 2nd time

noble moat
#

Postal is a I’m bored lemme kill humans for no reason game, can’t say I like those kinds of games

arctic shard
#

yeup

ornate basin
#

It’s not for everyone

#

and postal 3 is for nobody

noble moat
#

Like there’s that one game coming to switch, I think it’s called Hatred. Holy shit that game looks aweful

ornate basin
#

Because it’s the worst game ever

arctic shard
#

game is just game guys. who cares if you enjoy it

#

just play. why fight :?

noble moat
#

Gunna question your morales a bit if you play a Hatred

ornate basin
#

Try doom 3 amnesia it’s more slow

noble moat
#

Stick with doom 3 then

arctic shard
#

i think doom eternal tries to bring more story to the game. (it is good but i feel the flow is somehow broken

noble moat
#

Jinx

ornate basin
#

Seems to be what your wanting

arctic shard
#

i dont like eternal

noble moat
#

From now on all dooms will be in the style of eternal and 2016.

ornate basin
#

Doom 3 is great

noble moat
#

U play doom 3 BFG?

ornate basin
#

Play classic unless you have a vr headset

noble moat
#

You play Youngblood?

arctic shard
#

doom 3 is awesome

ornate basin
#

Bfg editions only purpose is vr

arctic shard
#

i still remembered when it came out. the graphics, the sound, the feeling ... wow!

ornate basin
#

And roe is perfect

noble moat
#

Can confirm

ornate basin
#

I agree on that completely

noble moat
#

No I don’t play Youngblood for the story. I play it for the action

ornate basin
#

Wolfenstein has always been a bit bad

noble moat
#

It’s a somewhat open type game where you just shoot things.

ornate basin
#

Plus youngblood dialogue is ummm

#

Special

noble moat
#

You don’t notice the dialogue most of the time tbh

ornate basin
#

It might have the worst written characters in any game since denstiny 1

noble moat
#

Oh yeah like i said I don’t play it for the characters or story.

#

But as a shooter, especially on the switch. It’s solid af

ornate basin
#

From what I’ve seen from the gameplay it’s look moderately ok

#

Not my style of game

noble moat
#

It has a story, it’s just not a good one

#

Now Metro, THATS a story

ornate basin
#

2016 and eternal are probably my favorite games

noble moat
#

Still waiting for eternal for switch ;-;

arctic shard
#

for me, doom 3, unreal 3, doom 2016 for fps

ornate basin
#

Up there with the bioshock trilogy

arctic shard
#

dont like eternal though

ornate basin
#

That is amazing game with an amazing story

noble moat
#

2016 is my favorite FPS of all time. I’ve replayed it 16 Times

ornate basin
#

Amnesia have you played bioshock

arctic shard
#

bioshock infinite is also awesome

#

havent tried the other ones

noble moat
#

Haven’t played bioshock. But the collection is coming to switch so might pick it up later

ornate basin
#

2 is my favorite

#

Then infinite

#

You need to play all 3

arctic shard
#

delete system32

ornate basin
#

They are complete classics

#

Infinite is a little weird

arctic shard
#

game nowadays are too heavy. eternal 80gb, tomb raider 50 gb, witcher 3 80gb+

#

Hey on Witcher 3 defense it’s a massive ass game

ornate basin

I haven’t played any of the whichers

Me neither

arctic shard
#

idk. my friends are really into witcher 3. i tried but i cant play it through

ornate basin
#

Or god of war even though I have a ps4

noble moat
#

Modern warfare is a case of shit ass compression

arctic shard
#

among fps games, i think unreal 3 ages pretty well

Zero reason it should be almost 200gb
And zero reason every patch is like 20gb

I still remember the day I bought the new plants vs zombies game and preordered doom eternal

recently i played plants vs zombies 2 again. there was a challenge when you had to shoot as many chickens as you could.

it was the first time when i see my new tablet lags when playing games

ornate basin

I fucking hate pvz2

arctic shard

i cant judge bc i play it when working (and cant play pc games)

ornate basin

It’s awful

The original was about one third of my childhood

arctic shard

i cant defense bc there was time i played azur lane whole time

That and this kickass godzilla game

arctic shard

it was a really dark time :))

ornate basin

Ironically it was the doom movie that got me into the games

noble moat

Pvz2 more like pay to win bullshet

#

Half the levels were almost impossible unless you were lucky, Or bought the good stuff

arctic shard
#

that's true though. but i havent paid anything

noble moat

The fact of even had half the plants buyable was stupid

ornate basin

Heroes is cool

arctic shard

or grind some special maps to level up your plants

And pvz3 looks even worse

arctic shard

there is pvz3?

I wish there wasn’t

I freaking love metro

blissful imp

and why he doesn't use the crucible too

blissful imp
#

I think he doesn't use because he was not charged

noble moat
#

Hmmmmm

#

Actually yes I got that wrong

#

I assume the return was purely because he couldn’t walk to argent dnur then. Woulda needed a portal from mars

#

Maybe lore has an answer

blissful imp
#

Nah i'm talking about the crucible

viral dune
#

Hayden is a character that I don't know if I should treat him as an ally or a villain

elder meadow
#

He is an ally

#

i hate hayden

#

He used it to solve an energy crisis. Olivia Pierce is what caused the hell invasion

#

He does see things from a utilitarian perspective. Which does mean he has vices.

late scroll
#

I love Hayden. Best character in the games

#

I'd love him to narrate my GPS

#

Step aside, GlaDOS

elder meadow
#

He was reduced to a mcguffin in eternal though. Not very cool.

viral dune
#

Glados is old

#

Hayden voice, badass af

elder meadow
#

Vega was always support. I feel he more useful in this game, like Doom guy best friend

#

Cept Doom guy don't have friends. More like a business partner

late scroll
#

I never understood how VEGA needed that whole facility to power him and yet Slayer just backs him up on an SD card and takes him along

blissful imp
#

Hayden is not immoral, he desagree with Olivia about sacrifice and thing like that

late scroll
#

What does that have to do with him being immortal or not

elder meadow

Immoral=/= immortal

#

oh I misread don't mind me

blissful imp
#

At the end of Doom 2016, he is angry because you destroyed ~100 years of his work

#

I'll be angry too

#

And also, he doesn't kill you

late scroll
#

Wasn't the frozen area the VEGA compound that powered him and allowed him to even exist and function?

#

VEGA Central Processing

#

Where VEGA's plasma-based neural net is and requires the extreme cold temperatures because the temperatures were extremely high

#

I'm reading the wiki right now

blissful imp
#

And Doom Guy is very intelligent tho, he his just a little naive and "brute"

late scroll
#

So how can VEGA's plasma-based neural net survive in an SD card

#

because VEGA has "miles of circuitry"

#

VEGA needed a cooling facility not the compound

blissful imp
#

I think Doom Guy made something for VEGA, remember, he "lived" at Argent Dnur

#

So he maybe do something that he see

late scroll
#

He just unplugged something just as he was overloading the facility.

#

And Hayden said "Thank you, VEGA" as if it were a sacrifice

#

That link I just posted cites "in-game description"

#

And I remember reading it in 2016

noble moat
#

All it’s saying is that vega cannot run without the cooling unit which slayer shot down

blissful imp
#

The fact that he need so much thing it because he worked at a Facility of ~300 per 300 miles

late scroll
#

So how is he running in Eternal then?

noble moat
#

He is in space using argent and sentinel technology

blissful imp
#

In Eternal he just talk and help you in a voice

late scroll
#

Ah...so he wasn't "alive" on the SD card...just being transported to be run again sometime in the future

#

It's not in the codex entry for the VEGA Central Processing level specifically?

blissful imp
#

Fortress Of Doom was made by or For doom guy ?

late scroll
#

I'm telling you it's in the game somewhere

The wiki says ingame descrption and I definitely remember reading it ingame

Not the personnel

the actual level description

Re-asking the question:
Fortress of Doom was made by Doom guy ?

Made by sentinels with Maykr tech

@formal bobcat https://doom.fandom.com/wiki/Codex/Environments scroll down to VEGA Central Processing

Doom Wiki

Despite the discovery of liquid water on Mars in the early 21st century, the colonization of Mars had little appeal beyond exploration for the next century. With the discovery of the Argent...

blissful imp
#

I love how the name Maykr came just only for Doom eternal

Even if Sentinels existed Before Eternal, weird

late scroll
#

That's not how I understood it. It specifically said it was located AWAY from the compound to keep all info on VEGA secret.

#

AI requires it to function

#

Not complex enough. As far as human tech is concerned, it required an entire facility in the frozen pole of Mars dedicated to making VEGA "go"

winged hearth
#

Hey guys I just got doom 2016 I’m in love

late scroll
#

Anyway, I just couldn't understand why VEGA survived when he needed all that but my confusion is now allayed because he wasn't running when he was backed up

blissful imp
#

UAC is pretty big

#

showroom

late scroll
#

Anything of Sentinel or Maykr design is way beyond Earth tech

#

Besides, the VEGA Central Processing facility utilized a plasma-based neural net which exhibits so much heat. That's not to say that some other more advanced type of neural net wouldn't be better or not require cooling at all.

#

It's just the best Earth had

#

And not be huge

elder meadow
#

So has anyone calculated how many points you need to get every cosmetic in snapmap mode?

blissful imp
#

And because, Solar system doesn't have Argent energy too

elder meadow
#

Im guessing not

blissful imp
#

No sorry, i'm playing switch so snapmap....

#

Weird that, Nobody know Doom Slayer, because he is a human from earth

#

And he his not "that" old

#

He "can't" he stuck at 35, he is invincible but no immortal

#

Compared to Samuel Hayden

#

As soon his brain don't die like a sh*t

#

Weird

#

You know, its hell legends

#

Like irl Religion/Legend

#

Yeah because the Tecnology of Doom Guy, even before spoily thing yeah, maybe your right

#

He was always immortal into his sarcophagus

#

i love how hell has a Society, not the same as ours, with Hierarchy and Legends

#

And Hell talk our language tho

#

And hell his more Powerfull than human, because they use litteraly Meaty-bio-weapon

Even if human can litteraly kill demons in a second with good weapon

#

Look at doom guy, just with a Shotgun he can litteraly kill thousand of demon

#

Yeah, and Vega litteraly prefer you than Samuel

#

Because VEGA Was made to help Human and Humanity,

And, he participated to kill more than 60k human

And listen to Samuel.

Doom Guy REALLY help human

#

You litteraly said that i want to said, Because yknow, i'm not bilingual

I like the cutscenes

Just catching up on chat. Someone said earlier that the cutscenes in Eternal were not good

ah it was you lol

I love me my first person "cutscenes" like Half-Life, but Eternal's cutscenes didn't take me out of it at all. And much of it was still first person (the memories sequences for instance, among others)

So it’s just called shotgun? Interesting

blissful imp
#

Yeah, sorry for the spam, connection

Yeah, if i Translated Shotgun to French and French to english it will be

Pump Shotgun,Or Hunting rifle

#

Even the SSG

#

And Shotgun, is not possible grammatically in french

Because
Its

Gun Who Shot=Shotgun in France

#

And there is not only one "Gun who shot"

So, Shotgun even in France is grammatically correct

#

BFG is not translated too

#

if it was, BFG become=GPP

elder meadow
#

The slight demon design changes from the reboot actually make sense because the demons would’ve probably evolved to have harder skin to be able to take on more physical trauma from the slayer over thousands of years

blissful imp
#

Maybe, or just design change

#

And, The no ammo upgrade + no HUD challenge is so cool, the first time i use all weapon

#

Weirdly, i found NM easier

elder meadow
#

I think its hilarious u demons talking about doom slayer. u wouldnt say this stuff to him at lan, hes jacked. not only that but he wears the freshest clothes, eats at the chillest restaurants and hangs out with the hottest dudes. yall are pathetic lol

late scroll
#

Oh wait this is 2016. I glory kill every single time.

flint dune

Sort of a habit to glory kill almost every glowy guy I see in 2016, on UN I have to restrain myself.

late scroll
#

What's the strategy in that?

flint dune
late scroll
#

...okay then.

flint dune
#

I didn’t use any strategy for Nightmare and almost never died, so truly, it’s just practice. Glory killing is a bad idea on any difficulty above UV though, as the reward is never really worth the risk.

#

At least that’s the advice I’ve been given.

#

Berserk feels so good in 2016, yeah

late scroll
#

I just don't understand the point in not glory killing....

flint dune
#

Well, for example, you go in for an Imp glory kill. Time doesn’t stop around you. Although you are invulnerable during the animation, this gives time for all the other enemies around you to lock on and catch up. You could end up getting cornered or an enemy could throw a projectile at you right when you come out of the animation.

#

Basically what you said

#

Eh, ledge grabbing really is a problem I agree

#

Doom Eternal does something smart with glory kills though. Instead of instant death when you come out of a badly timed glory kill, HP goes down to 5. Also falling through the map still happens in both games lol

#

Yeah

blissful imp
#

I only glory-kill when my screen is red

#

Even with a glory kill on NM you can die one-shot, they didn't give you much health

#

Glory kill is just for fun on NM

@formal bobcat somewhere between every demon and on occasion

wow ok so rich get richer really turns the game into a complete fucking joke huh

I only bothered with the Multiplayer so I could use Demon runes

Pretty fun to play as the Pinky ngl

Mines were the definition of bullshet

It’s a free guaranteed kill pretty much no matter what

Toss it on the ceiling of a small hallway or top of doorway

i have a question whats the difference between vulkan and opengl?

shadow crescent

Vulkan is faster i think

viral dune

Vulkan seems like a next-gen API of OpenGL from what I've read on the internet. But Vulkan is still a new thing and quite unstable.
Some pc might experience lag issues when switching to Vulkan. My game performance, however, I gain more fps after using it.

The only people that didnt like 2016 mp were people who were trash at the game

#

same people that complain about the marauder

ornate basin
#

That’s not true 2016 had genuine problems to it

#

Like having loadouts with everything else being a traditional deathmacth design

#

Or having completely broken demons and powerups relegated to complete rng

#

And how the demon spotter rune was completely busted

#

And how the specter was so completely op and it hitboxes were completely broken on the charge attacks

#

And how doom the series that breed deathmacth didn’t have it on launch

#

And how weapon balance was shit

#

And the glory kills hardly worked

#

And it was laggy

noble moat
#

And the mines

flint dune
#

Such BS those are

ornate basin
#

Thanks for the Vietnam flashbacks asshole

Feel free to pitch changes for me to make.

elder meadow
#

The weapon balance was great lol

#

Update 6.66 made a really balanced game set that required an immense amount of skill. It was a blast to play. The loadout limitation ended up inspiring creativity and making some pretty sick combinations

#

There was so many viable weapon setups.

SSG+ Combat shotgun
Reaper plus SSG
Plasma rifle plus combat shot gun or SSG.

Reaper plus vortex

Assault rifle plus ssg

Now the three burst rifle was trash and so was the plasma pistol, but they was the only trash guns.

#

The power seeker rune helped with power control and power indentification. Gave so much map control. Killing demons that spawned became easy with equipment plus weapon combos. Just don't do it on spawn as they got significant DR

#

The issue was people sucked ass and so they blamed the game, not themselves. It was a good gameplay mode that very much inspired arena style play as you run around the map nabbing all the health picks while simultaneously jumping back into the fight. 1v6 freeze tag was so easy once you get the gameplay rythm down as it was so heavily skilled.

noble moat
#

Close but no cigar

elder meadow
#

The biggest issue people was booty

noble moat
#

Yeah agreed

#

The problem was people want cod team death match
So when it came to a tdm that actually required skill people shit themselves

golden cosmos
#

Reaper + Hellshot was such a beast Soul Harvest loadout

#

@elder meadow the pistol and plasma gun are so good though.

elder meadow
#

The pistol is terrible because its role is done so much better by repear

#

Plasma gun yeets shit though it is good.

#

Hellshot for aim bot bois. With aim bot, it probably the strongest gun in the entire game. DPS potentially at any range is incredible.

@golden cosmos

Anybody got tips for defeating the hell guards? They are a pain

Single one

But i just completed the game lol

flint dune
#

@mortal reef When the Hell Guard goes up to charge that big energy orb, shoot it right before he throws it at you. If you time it right, the orb will explode and stun him.

#

That’s really the only tip I know of.

torpid swallow
#

The plasma rifle will continuously stun the hell guards, even on Nightmare. Easy way to cheese the fight.

#

fuck nightmare mode

#

*ultra

noble moat
#

You mean fuck the mode that was literally added as a joke

elder meadow
#

I got through the first two levels and got clapped by a fucking fireball

#

Ultra nightmare looks like fun

noble moat
#

Yeah well, Ultranightmare is supposed to be stupid
You can find an interview, they were like Lol let’s add a mode where you die and restart the game

elder meadow
#

I don't think I can finish it though.

noble moat
#

It’s just nightmare difficulty, but death = restart,
So if you can’t do Nightmare without dying you can’t do UN

elder meadow
#

kinda funny, cause you should try to 100% ultra nightmare since that levels you up fastest

noble moat
#

There’s no levels in Doom 2016

elder meadow
#

yeah there are????

#

I mean, the levels are still here, but not the ones he means.

#

like the upgrades and such are level ups

noble moat
#

No?

#

Every difficulty gives you upgrades and such the exact same

#

Praetor tokens. Elite guard tokens, drones, all the same

elder meadow
#

theyre like the exact same tho, each time you find something it levels up that part of the Doom Slayer

noble moat
#

You just said UN “levels” you up fastest, it doesn’t

elder meadow
#

No lmao

#

I said 100% in UN is the best way since it levels you up fastest

noble moat
#

The term is Maxes out or Upgrades you fastest.

elder meadow
#

I believe that at any other level of difficulty these bonuses/upgrades/stuff are optional but at UN you will have anyway to search for them and collect them if you want to beat it.

red flume
#

there is no set term lmao

noble moat
#

Because eternal actually has levels, and doing UN in eternal DOES level you up faster

elder meadow
#

plus you get cool gold armor

red flume
#

luckily for us we're in the 2016 channel, which isn't Eternal

elder meadow
#

I dont have eternal tho

noble moat
#

You’d be surprised how many idiots come here talking eternal without context confusing everyone

elder meadow
#

I am waiting for sales

noble moat
#

At least eternal gives you something for UN
2016 gives you a pat on the back and a thumbs up

elder meadow
#

you get self respect and the ability to rant on forums about it

red flume
#

I usually get the thumbs up in Foundry when I die in lava trying to platform

elder meadow
#

that annoys me

#

Why are there no ways to get out of the lava

noble moat
#

Dying in foundry tho 😬

red flume
#

idk why it's so tough for me specifically on that level. always has been

elder meadow
#

you get 5-10 seconds why are there no ladders or stuff to climb out with

red flume
#

Dude I die in Foundry so much. It's easily the hardest level for me.

elder meadow
#

I swear, everytime I play foundry, I kill the first 2 gore nests and get stuck looking for the key card for 20 minutes

noble moat
#

You get the rpg?

red flume
#

Yea I usually 100% the level. It's the combination of somewhat difficult fights and a limited arsenal (plus dumb platforming mistakes) that make it hard.

noble moat
#

Trick for foundry is get RPG and give it lock on. Makes the hell knights a joke

elder meadow
#

or just get good at running backwards using the shotgun

noble moat
#

Rpg is the fastest way to remove them with no issues

elder meadow
#

I want to see someone 100% UN with only the pistol

noble moat
#

Google it, they have done it

red flume
#

...that's such a smart idea Bob. I always instinctively grab the stun bomb because I never thought to save the mod bot for the RL.

#

makes me feel worse since I do save the mod bot in the previous level for micromissles

noble moat
#

Ok so in the2nd level, skip the drone the first time, get plasma rifle, give it heat wave

Then in foundry give rpg lock on

#

Heat wave helps a shit ton for removing all imps on screen,
Lock on kills all Hellknights

Also don’t use HAR at all, it’s shet tbh until the level after foundry

#

Also on foundry, get Maxed our grenade shotgun as fast as possible, then start working on mastery, once mastered it helps kill pretty much any big enemy in game and almost always stuns them

#

You won’t need Stun grenade for plasma until much later, as only the pinkies really need to be stunned at that point

red flume
#

CS mastery is always the first thing I do. I probably use that as my main gun until like Titan's Realm.

#

(just explosive shot, not both of them)

noble moat
#

I use it as my main gun always, The grenade launcher does roughly more than an rpg hit, And stuns enemies

red flume
#

I use it all the way through, just less once I have siege mode and a maxed SSG.

#

Taking precision bolt on my next play through though because I'm finally getting kinda bored by siege.

noble moat
#

I don’t even use the ssg

red flume
#

I only started to recently

noble moat
#

You have to get close, and if you dont kill them with that blast you are stuck there reloading in front of enemies

#

As for gauss, I mostly use its standard fire, siege for pinkies / area clearing

#

I’m doing UN rn
If I die I blame my drift

#

Leftcon drifts left right and up
Also doesn’t always register up movement
And right con randomly drifts down,

So my movement is hindered and aiming is shot

But I still managed a Nightmare run with only 2 deaths

golden cosmos
#

@elder meadow you're partially right about the Reaper overshadowing the Handgun like that, it's the same role, it's more damage and better at close range.
But the Handgun alt fire doesn't lower my DPI like the Reaper does. It does an excellent job of being a no-scope sniper. My wife got Clan Leader with it in a full game. That's something easier said than done, especially in this game.

Plasma Gun isn't as good as some combos, but it's just the highest DPS single-gun. People who don't want to learn to quick switch can still compete with it. The Assault loadout is so good to start with, though I didn't appreciate that until later.

Honestly I can't believe how much fun the multiplayer is in Doom. I should have had the three medals, I bought the game at launch and just, didn't check the stuff out until last year. : (

elder meadow
#

lmfao im replaying doom 2016 just to see how it personally compares to eternal and my first death is due to falling out of the map

flint dune
#

lol rip

elder meadow
#

aand second death is due to forgetting that a charged imp fireball does 75 damage

ornate basin
#

Not dying to falling off the map is so a QOL improvement in eternal

elder meadow
#

yeah and rune trials being massively streamlined too

red flume
#

streamlined removed

elder meadow
#

eh, most of them were really tedious to do

#

what I really like is that runes aren't locked to the level they're found in and you can just pick any one of them

red flume
#

I like not having to do the trials but I do kinda miss the masteries. Those were fun imo

elder meadow
#

oh yeah they were cool, even though some of them were absolutely broken like ammo boost

ornate basin
#

Rich get richer
More like a really easy game to cheese becomes even more easy to cheese

elder meadow
#

i really do feel bad for the demons in doom 2016, they were having a hard enough time as is dealing with the slayer but then he can fire the super shotgun twice

ornate basin
#

And then gets a rune that lets him have infinite ammo for it

golden cosmos
#

@elder meadow Have your friends also complained to you about footsteps and shot sounds being muted in the multiplayer?

elder meadow
#

Nah, no one played it sadly but me

#

I never had that problem though. 5.0 KD. What got me the most was just getting jumped or sloppy play. Also mines

golden cosmos
#

"but it's not overwatch" - "I can't get through a match without dying" - "you can't hear footsteps, you can't hear when you get shot, but if they miss their gun sounds loud then" are the complaints I always get told.

#

I'm probably just a 0.8 ratio on average xD

elder meadow
#

I mean, the gun shots are quiet tbh, but you see your health get chunked. People with bad situational awareness gonna complain. You could just look around instead

tropic token
#

the virgin doom 2016 versus the chad doom 4

mortal reef
#

After getting the super shotgun the normal one is forgotten

cursive ingot
#

Especially with the mastery

golden cosmos
#

Pop rocket definitely used in quick switch combos...

shrewd helm
#

Am I the only one here thinking that Doom 2016 enemy were looking way better than they are in Doom Eternal ?

#

Like the Mancubus

late scroll
#

I can't stand the crustacean denon designs personally. Mancubus with natural guns on the arms is dumb to me.

elder meadow
#

Lobster cyberdemon > tyler1 head cyberdemon

late scroll
#

Ugh never liked the Cyberdemon as soon as I saw it in the first Doom 2016 teaser trailer

#

Eternal demon designs are much better

flint dune
#

Really? I thought the design looked cool.

#

Although, besides from the Baron and Revenant I agree

late scroll
#

Actually yeah. Baron I like better in 2016

#

And Hell Knight

#

No Eyes Hell Knight ftw

elder meadow
#

i prefer demon designs in 2016

#

designs in general pretty much, eternal is a lot more cartoony looking

#

and sound effects are pretty weak in comparison

late scroll
#

Not even. Both shotguns in Eternal sound way better than 2016

ornate basin
#

Actually doom 3 has the best sound effects mortally_challenged

late scroll
#

Although I will say that the dynamic music implementation was done better and slicker in 2016

#

But Eternal's soundtrack is overall better

elder meadow
#

hey thats my view on it

#

they dont sound as better as 2016 to me

#

especially the heavy cannon

#

compared to 2016 it has no impact

late scroll
#

The double barreled shotgun in 2016 sounds like a hollow thunk. And the reg shotgun is just so weak

kind pebble
#

Does anyone else confuse the Prowler with the Imp and end up trying to chainsaw it with one charge and getting murdered right away?

red flume
#

I never got the CS sound complaints for 2016. It sounds perfectly fine to me. A simple "thud" for a simple weapon.

noble moat
#

It sounds eh, and performs eh

elder meadow
#

super shotgun performs eh?

#

now thats just farce

noble moat
#

It definitely would be if the sentence prior to mine wasn’t referring to the combat shotgun

errant bloom
#

I dislike 2016 demon designs after Eternal. (I especially hated the ugly ass alien looking mancubus design) Demons in 2016 had like no personality or expressions. Especially Zombies, Cacodemons or Mancubus.
...
But yeah fuck Eternals Revenant design doomcry

ornate basin
#

The toy vs the model in game of the revenant

#

It’s like the man she told you not to worry about meme

late scroll
#

I didn't like how half the demons were sightless in 2016. But then in Eternal EVERYTHING had eyes including the Hell Knight which was the only demon I didn't want to have eyes

#

There should be classic skins for demons too. 2016 Revenant, Doom II Revenant, etc

#

Doom 3 Revenant!

errant bloom
#

You know... if eternal would be an id tech 6 game this would be so easy to do for ID software.

#

But im no game dev but if they can do it id be VERY happy

shadow crescent
#

Too bad the engine isnt mod friendly.
Classic enemy skins would've been great

blissful imp
#

Yeah

shadow crescent
#

I hope so.

noble moat
#

Doubt

elder meadow
#

the starting room doesent have anything

#

just a tutorial

#

Big doubt unfortunately. Snapmap is so badass

noble moat
#

Snapmap is dead
No way id goes back while thye have so much planned for eternal

#

Jump, that’s it

#

It’s definitely weird how it gets you stuck

elder igloo
#

hey

#

guess what

#

the cacodemons be vibe'n

candid dagger
#

Man, pinky demons are annoying in this game!

flint dune
#

They get more annoying in Eternal lol

gusty onyx
#

What? Nah, other way around. Pinkies were the worst thing in 2016, now they're pushovers in eternal

noble moat
#

Pinkies are easy in 2016
Stun bomb, gauss dash, easy

elder meadow
#

Y'all are crazy with these tactics

#

I just use guns

#

You can just freeze him in this game.

#

Whoops wrong game

#

You just jump over them and ssg

#

They was more annoying as you couldn't lock them down as effectively

gusty onyx
#

Same

elder meadow
#

I play Switch so I disagree

#

Tracking is boss with motion control

gusty onyx
#

Only really needa know which gun for what enemy in 2016

elder meadow
#

I played switch as well. Motion control is wonky

#

Especially with the shitty joy cons

#

Joycons? No

#

Pro controller yes

#

Joycons are a gimmick, pro controller changes it all

#

I'm not buying an $80 accessory

#

But again, y'all allowed an opinion <3

gusty onyx
#

Nah, joy-cons all the way, bro

elder meadow
#

You can get a console without joy cons on eBay for cheap, but you do you, y'all

#

Well, you could

#

Scalpers now messed that up

#

Pro Controller or not you’re still playing a fuckin Switch LOL

#

Yeah it runs fine

#

The best version

#

I’m aware I own DOOM 2016 on Switch

#

Yeah, it was solid.

#

Best part was shitting on people in multiplayer

#

I love it, it's so fun. If I can beat it on Nightmare with motion controls, I believe in all of you dealguy

flint dune
#

Nah I’m saying they’re more annoying in Eternal because they turn around a lot quicker, and can turn corners more accurately, sorry late response

noble moat
#

I beat nightmare, Handheld, JOYCONS, no motion controls. No ammo upgrades. And didn’t use SSG or any runes that cheese the game. What’s y’all excuse
And both my joycons drift.

late scroll
#

^ The real hardcore

#

@noble moat small screen or docked?

noble moat
#

I said handheld

#

I don’t play games on the big screen except for monster hunter.

I bought a switch because it’s a handheld so I use it as such

#

The campaign is only 10-11ish hours tho

#

Probably less since I’m wayy better than when I first started

#

I only die 1-2 times now during a Nightmare run,

#

And that’s not during boss fights,
The last 4 runs I didn’t die during them

I found out how to properly avoid Cyberdemon laser.
And guards as well

#

I just wish my joycons didn’t drift, it’s quite annoying playing doom with drift

#

I don’t think you are using the phrase “having so much time correctly”

#

Well I kinda know what you mean tho, some of the UN players have put their souls into practice

#

Memorizing EVERY demon spawn is madness

#

I just can’t wait to play eternal on switch, I’m told it’s an even faster game and I’m hyped

#

I’m starting with nightmare for sure.

#

So I’m told. But eternal should technically be easier than 2016.
Much more ways to gain health and shields compared to 2016

#

Well I say that but I hope I’m wrong, I hope eternal truly is faster and harder than 2016.
Nightmare is fun but seems a bit easy at times

#

I’m really excited for master levels.

They fix the problem I have with doom 2016

#

Once u beat 2016” there’s no point going back to earlier levels, it’s wayyyy too easy.

Master levels fix that and for that I am grateful

#

More enemies, and stronger spawns

#

So cultist base for example in eternal.
Instead of normal gameplay spawn with 3 imps and a revenant,

It now has 2 cyberdemons, a pain elemental, cyber mancubus, etc

#

It makes more demons, and much stronger ones appear, and much more often.

I didn’t check it fully, but normally cultist base has no cyber demons,
And master level version Has at least 5

#

True, but it’s never just 1 mini boss. It’s always a horde of demons at once. Man I’m so excited for master levels

#

Hey let’s make the normal levels much harder, like fuck yess

#

Still sad I have to wait x amount more months, but it’s understandable,

Putting it on a switch even with a better engine must be a nightmare

#

I hope so too. The last time I was this excited for a game It was doom 2016

#

And doom 2016 is my favorite FPS of all time

Is it possible to play Doom VFR with mouse and keyboard?
