The second phase was actually pretty piss easy because I holo-swapped(albiet very inconsistently LMAO
) through it with RL, Gauss, and SSG as well as explosive shot
also, PB or SM?
Seige Mode all the way. I always save up 9 upgrade tokens so I can instantly start working on the mastery
Took me until my second playthrough to realize how broken that mod is
Basically a mini BFG
Should call it the BFG-8000
It's always Siege Mode with people I find ;-;
seems as if no one appreciates PB these days
Don't get me wrong, I actually love precision bolt, but I can't deny that I usually find seige mode to be more effective. I wish I could have two Gauss Cannons just so I could use both
Seige mode melts if you know how to time it
@untold stirrup so I did a thing with the Cyberdemon track
And ran it through a spectrogram
Towards the portion that plays in-game at the UAC Facility before you rip out the Argent Accelerator in its chest and go to hell, I played the song and it shows 666 and a pentagram as far as 4, maybe 8 times in counting.
that's interesting
I have the screenshot as proof
Ever hear of Slad3?
I was gonna say this the second I found someone talking about DOOM mixes
If I'm not mistaken this isn't new. This has already been discovered before. Not saying that it isn't cool but it's not new
nope
I like how doom 2016 mancubis has obesity and in eternal he completed a weight loss program
Anyone knows the fastest way to find players in multiplayer ?
well...
I completed DOOM 2016
Ultra-Violence
I probably will go back to get all secrets
before starting a Nightmare run
and then after a few NM runs, then UN
Nice
such a thing doesnt exist
🧐
Should be good after 2 or 3 I want to do a third first
now that's a channel i gotta add to my list, i like SLAD3 and SPC
which song in particular makes you feel that way?
Go on
Ah ok
I'm basic as hell. I love BFG division, or if we're talking Eternal then I fucking love Meathook
Oh, and The Only Thing They Fear as well as Harbinger
Cant go wrong with harbinger
How do i get the blue skull
You’re going to have to be more specific. A few levels have skull keys.
How do I play online? I have the switch.
I dont know man, I just dont like how he puts multiple stems in at the same time
sounds weird
Sometimes I feel like some parts are gragged on for a bit too long, but Koma is good
I'll listen to metro's mixes rn
Can you help me
So in mission 6, that area where you first encounter the Baron of hell
There is a part of the map hidden behind a wall i can't get to
Do you know how to get their
You could try looking at a yt guide
I do in fact know how to get there
There's a little dark cave nearby with a lever. Pull it
Already did that
Then it's open lmao
Like i said i already did all that
Is there anyone else who has sucessfully finished UN No HUD besides ChocolateVanille and Byte Me?
No crosshairs too
Probably many who aren't like on YT or whatever
Go through all that for your own personal glory. I dig it
Most likely
Seems like an interesting challenge
But to actually do that you need to do a few NM no hud runs first
I'll do that for my third practice. See what it's like
I did it with wolfenstein for the engima unlock. It's bascailly 100 times more cinematic
Probably gonna start my first proper NM run tonight
Or should I first get all secrets on my UV run first
I think I skipped a secret in VCP and all secrets in ADN
That last train room in VCP is pretty hard tbh
Not UN but NM personally
It was interesting for sure
lol don't worry about being "too basic" in tastes
it saddens me that there are people out there who look down on that side of doom music fans and gatekeep anyone who doesn't listen to the more electronic+experimental side
I cant aim to begin with and having no crosshair didnt help
lol true, it works sometimes but sometimes its just...noise
for me it never really sounded good
Go for all secrets NM
Sure
If I wanted to spice it up I could also do No HUD
100% NM doesn't seem too hard
I know all the secrets in the first 3 levels I think
Just gotta commit to memorizing pretty much the rest
Love how I remember every secret once Im in a level, but I cant remember anything said on a math lesson
Oh yeah there are people who have done UN No HUD, I just asked because I could only find 2 people on YT who did it
I could try doing that as my ultimate goal for 2016, buuuut i do want to see if I can get Eternal to run on my default MacBook settings, and if I can, play through that and get through UN
Maybe UN on TAG 1 and 2 as well
Because of the fact that I havent really been able to play Eternal, Im just gonna begin my first actual playthrough on Nightmare
hopefully I get there in the next 50 years
I'm not totally sure if I can actually even get eternal to run
Because I've seen errors about drivers with Eternal
And the first time I booted up 2016, I was in the 10-20 FPS range
But I mean I had to go into game to adjust the settings
While eternal just has em on the starting menu
Id get the secrets then focus on nightmare and your strategy
Alright then
Since I didn't get any secrets in Argent D'Nur I can retouch up my skills and actually not kill the Spider Mastermind using the BFG Cheese
Actually, I might master MM and use Siege when I reload a checkpoint to see how much of a difference it makes against the mastermind
Since well...
Sylar did manage to delete a cyberdemon in 7 seconds with double tap BFg tech, RL + Siege and SSG
Alright wtf... ByteMe's FPS Academy strats are so cheese
I love it tbh
Campaign > Any game slot > Settings
You don't have to make a game first. It's just in a weird place
I wish I could go full cheese but since I'm recording I'll have to do it with some honor
double bfg is legit imo since it's utilizing intended mechanics. quickswap exploits and such are the true cheese
double bfg is an easy tactic that makes a lot of boss fights trivial, for sure though
using the weapon wheel after firing the bfg on the other hand is so shameful you could never come back from that, lol
Absolutely shameful. Quickswap takes some skill at least
I finally got all my runes and all weapons. Rich get richer and Gauss Cannon are just fucking Op
pair that with equipment power
Now I understand why people talked so much about the Gauss Cannon. Such a cool and powerful weapon
and probably vacuum, the range of health it caan absorb is frankly pretty good
Ammo Boost is obsolete with RGR
unless you have the mastery rune
which gives BFG ammo
Seek And Destroy is also a busted rune
need to get away from a baron and you see an imp across the room? pull out the chainsaw and chainsaw it lmao
its range is actually busted
well then, time to grind the spider mastermind fight or just get the final secret in VCP and the secrets in ADN to complete DOOM 2016 UV 100%
I just feel like 3-4 weapons are really good and the rest are ok. Maybe I just like too much the micromissiles, SSG, rockets and gauss
Explosive shot
Stun bomb
Mobile turret
Stun bomb + Siege is busted
Also, BFG increases damage factor against demons for a short time
For those that survive the bfg impact
Like boss monsters
I'm glad you like it 
There's so much i still have to learn to be honest. First playthrough right now. I just finished Titans Realm 😊
Especially when you pair it with DKSMS...
Sigh
DKSMS, so good yet so bad
It's a love hate relationship
yeah that shit happened to me
I just finished doom 2016 trying to get as much secret stuff as i could
Now I will move on to Doom Eternal
Tried to take down the spider mastermind as fast as possible with maximum cheese
took me 1:14 :/
if only I abused the double tap and bfg cheese properly
oh shit i just realized im missing all secrets in necropolis
is anyone else really bad at navigating
No
Well done, now beat it on a harder difficulty
Guess so lol
Had an absolute blast though, so once my adrenalin levels return from the dangerously high state they're in now I'll start a harder run
I think I’m gonna start a DOOM 2016 Brawler Mode run for the hell of it. A new challenge should be fun
I have a question for any and all who have the answer
what is the question, heh
what's the question?
So I’ve been revisiting DOOM 2016 and I was trying to access the photo mode
I looked in the settings where it should be but it’s not there
My question is how do I get it?
I uh neven messed around with photo mode so I can't really help you, sorry
Gotta replay a mission to do photo mode
Alright that makes sense thanks
Albeit the photo mode in 2016 is super primitive so don't expect much cool stuff, or any slayer shots as it hide the player model.
Oh
I thought it got removed or something
hello
is there anyone who still plays doom 2016 multiplayer? If so how do I get invited to a server? I tried the "find match" thing but it just rang out.
there's basically no one on the multiplayer servers
and for those that are, they're hardcore sweats
I remember when I first got 2016 it was on my Switch so the multiplayer has felt dead to me for a long time
it’s a shame, fun multiplayer
Do people still use snapmap at least? I'm shocked that didn't come back for eternal
Anyway, I finished 2016's campaign yesterday. Just need three more weapon masters (Gauss cannon and the remote detonator for the rocket launcher) and finish the challenges and secrets for the last level
Yeah, but it’s not very lively either. Still fun checking out the cool maps people make, or making your own either way.
It wasn’t included in Eternal because the Developers wanted to put more focus into additional campaign content. Such as the DLCs and Master Levels.
remote detonation op

but lock on is better for burst combos
Yeah, I used lock on more often.
Just gotta find a good level to grind the masters out. Im having trouble finding a good place tonget three monsters to one shot with it and the gauss cannon
Mid game levels have lots of low level enemies
Otherwise I think there are 3 zombies in a row in the second level, you might need to coax them a bit
Yeah. Honestly, this is when the challenges got annoying, you have to wait and line up shots to get them to count
you know you can reload checkpoints right
you can cheese the masteries because it's saved there individually
it's not part of the level
so just find a good place like in advanced research complex last arena
and then cheese it
that's how I got both the double shot and increased payload masteries
I could've also easily gotten Siege mastery but I don't like Siege
I might make exceptions on either NM or UN though
srsly...
I'll try PB first out on NM
I like it better anyway, I just have to get used to implementing it in combos
it's funny how you can get it in argent tower which is the 4th mission iirc
If you want perfect vr then 3 is where its at
I heard that didn't adapt well either but it is on my list as well
I don't have oculus because fuck FB but they say you can mod it to work with the Index
Its perfect with the aim controller
idk what that is
Its basically a gun
Yeah
I've been playing that shit every day since I got it
Like 3 weeks ago
The fist time I literally just looked out windows and looked at pipes and stuff 
It’s the little things in VR that can fuck over a game or make it better
Oh very much so. Phasmophobia's VR hands are terrible. They are fully static, and the fingers never ever move, and the hands very often do not align with your real hands
Still a fun game but wow it needs a QoL overhaul
Recently tried VR for the first time I played 2 games one of which was Half-Life Alyx. The level of immersion man…
Alyx is the best VR experience, full stop
I love throwing bottles at source 2 pigeon
Have you ever hit it
or Doom 3
I haven't played Doom 3 VR but I am willing to bet a whole dollar that a game specifically designed for a specific headset specifically for VR that has no nonVR option is gonna beat a port of a 2004 game
A nonVR Alyx would be a thoroughly mediocre game
And the player would be wildly OP, because you can move MUCH faster with a mouse and keyboard than you can with VR controllers
And because with mouse and keyboard you can aim way way better
No crosshairs in VR
I've played it non stop and like is said I've gone to a few vr arcades. It's better than those
a whole dollar I will bet on this
I'm almost done doom 2. then doom 64 and then doom 3 vr
The pc version has mods and visual upgrades but the ps version is all around designed in a way that keeps me coming back. I doubt I'll be able to play normal doom 3 again
Anways doom 2016 is my baby
Sadly no
made it back to Kadingir on UN. Let's see if things go better this time
nice
Don't forget to take a break or 2 if needed
just beat kadingir. furthest I've made it in an UN run. Got here three times before and lost the run. Def time for a breather
you quickswapping?
Oh yes
What's holo swapping?
the fastest swapping method in DOOM
People have deleted first phase cyberdemon in 7 seconds with it
Is that the thing with getting the instant charge on siege mode?
it's so fast that the internal weapon cooldown hardcoded into the game is surpassed by the weapon swapping speed
that's DKSMS, or Instant Siege Mode
I am finally ready to reveal my secret power in DOOM 2016: the Holo Swap. This quick switching technique is enabled by a subtle use of the hologram itself, one of DOOM's equipment pieces. As I show in my guide, the sequence of inputs hologram - swap cancels the recovery animations of weapons and mods, most noticeable in the case of explosive sho...
here's the video
Thanks! I'll take a look at it and give it a try while I'm practicing the next level
practice in an empty level or field
and make your you have proper ammo too or have Ammo Boost to chainsaw a foder next time
with the swapping speed, it can chew through ammo
baron of hell deleted in like 2 seconds with holo and mod swapping
at 3:56
it woudl be great to play a multiplayer where everyone is a player, i tried the demon matches in eternal but they require too much extra learning
Doom 2016 honestly took my controller skills to new levels
Need to start that un recording soon. Keep getting distracted with classic
have you heard of our lord and savior the DKSMS?
Where do I self promote?
he knows about it
#artwork #videos
thanks
hello im new to this game
cool
Nice
Bro i keep coming up a few points short for gold no matter how many combos i pull off. Any tips for arcade?
Like literally i came up by 100 points short of gold yesterday
Ive tried everything i can think of.
gold? wdym? like in Arcade Mode?
oh yeah I see now, in arcade
I've never actually fiddled with arcade before, but are you supposed to kill demons as fast as possible?
If you pull off string combos you get more points
holoswapping out of dksms provides amazing linking potential
holoswapping is too much for me. I'm not THAT into doom lol
it's just one extra input
Yeah its not that complicated
1 extra input and you get to do this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/504714848194527236/900046210436571226/hs.mp4
Melt
been a while since i did arcade, but i know you can get slayer (hidden rank higher than gold) without any cheese, and with simple normal quickswapping
don't use bfg since you won't get more than one bonus medal from all those kills, and if you kill everything at once it'll stop new stuff from spawning i think
and if you're about to finish a section before moving on to the next one, try to leave something alive near the exit and then stack the speed runes before glory killing it, then you'll have more time to speed to the next section to continue the chain bonus on the next smallfry you see
i did my slayer run on UN and without any exploits, so it's certainly possible
you get more points on higher difficulties, you want to get as many medals as possible for each kill (which usually means stunning and headshotting them, iirc), you want to get the relic bonuses immediately for max points (there's a glitch where they can pass through walls/floors at max fps, so limit your fps to 180 at the most via rtss or something), and you def want to keep your chain bonus going
Actually haven't tried it on UN. Smart though. I think I'll give it a go in a bit
So, I've been playing doom 2016 for a while, and I wanna check how long I've been playing, but, not only xbox doesnt track the playtime of this game, but I checked in the save file and it only says at what date I last played, but it doesnt say how many hours ive been playing this (and exophase doesnt track that, either). What can I do to check the playtime of doom 2016? 🤔
Honestly for console I kept personal track. I'm sure I'm still off a 100 hours or so when I forgot. I think the new consoles tell you though. Other than that I think you're out of luck. Maybe try to remember how many playthroughs you've done
I have about 100, maybe 150 hours in doom 16. Fuckin love that game. But I'm coming up on 300 in Eternal now lmao
Nice ! Love to see it
I think I have about 24 hours into the game
The combat loop in eternal is just nearly perfect
Last time I remember it was maybe 1800 but I'm off by alot either for or against because I did a binge with my cousin one weekend
it's not too complicated but on UN it could make a really big difference, it's just getting it consistent
It took me a solid year just to figure out weapon swap at all
I've been playing 2016 since 2016. I played once a week since then except this little while with my classic stuff getting in the way
First time I started playing I barely switched at all
My first playthrough I got the mastery for mobile turret and said "ok cool I'm done"
Now I never even touch mobile turret, I hate it lol
Actually I never use the chaingun in '16 at all
There's a few things in 2016 you don't really need to use but are pretty fun. Chaingun is one of them
Yeah, honestly I will never care to minmax how I play
I just want to play to have fun
I was so embarrassed. I was playing Eternal on nightmare and died twice in cultist base. Deleted the save file and restarting that run lol
I’ll beat ultra nightmare having fun, not gaming the system
When I started eternal I wasn’t having fun with the ammo stuff so I just bumped down the difficulty, which I think actually made it less enjoyable rather than fix any of my problems
One of the biggest issues transitioning from 16 to Eternal is that in 16 the chainsaw is the Crucible and not an ammo source, because ammo pickups are so plentiful
But if you just forget the idea of chainsawing Heavy Demons and only do like imps and stuff, you'll be fine
Yeah I figured that out, I just don’t really like it
But eh, not much we can do about it now
One real strength of Eternal though is that you get all the weapons and mods by Taras Nabad
So you have nekravol, nekravol 2, urdak, and final sin all as a god tier slayer with like, only 1 or 2 masteries you haven't finished
In 16 I felt like I was still grinding runes and weapon masteries right up until the last level
That’s an RPG argument lmao
Specialization for the whole game vs jack of all trades by the end
Hey I really wanted to try the multiplayer. Whats the best way to actually find a match?
Buy a time machine
Damn rip
lmfao
Truth
that is indeed the truth
So, tried UAC Nightmare today
Apparently imp fireballs can do 80+ damage
Lmao
Had like 87 health 3 armor
1 shotted by a fireball
Yeah, this really is the "i fucking hate imps" difficulty
I beat the game on Nightmare with only the pistol. Took hundreds of deaths and over a year lmao.
Also, I'm trying to get the last of the mp achievements and I need a fourth. If anyone's up for it sometime this week, @ me.
Congrats
Thank you. The worst enemies were cacodemons and cyber-mancubi. Everything else you get used to dealing with pretty easily.
I hope you got a caco spin death or 2
speaking of cacodemons...
when you drop down the skull in necropolis, if you don't double jump to cushion your landing, you'll play the impact compensation animation while the cacodemons are still shooting at you, so there is a high chance you might die
happened to me the first time
I was so annoyed
Pin that message for UN playthroughs hahah
I hate archvile
Most hated enemy
Wait this is the 2016 chat
I'm pre-ordered 2016
I don't remember anything from 2016
You have guns. Kill demons
Oh that's right
ye
or for a totally accurate summary, a robot named sussmuel gayden starts experimenting with hell, it fucks him over, you have guns and you kill invading demons until sussmuel gayden betrays you and takes the weird red lightsaber which is apparently an infinite source of hell energy
Unpopular Opinion: I prefer Doom 2016's praetor suit to Doom Eternal's praetor suit
eh not really unpopular
I think everyone likes the 2016 suit better
ok then
here's a slightly more unpopular opinion
Doom 2016 soundtrack > Doom Eternal soundtrack
what level are you guys I am only 24 in multiplayer
not really, there are some who like the eternal suit
that may be pushing it a bit but understandable
but keep in mind, its only a smidge better cause both are incredible
Both suits are great
Classic 64 2016 eternal. They all are amazing suits
Eternal suit is 2016 mixed with predator. Can't go wrong with 2 things I love
and also some elements from the classic suit
i just prefer the shade of green from the 2016 suit
Oh it's a great green color for sure
Always prefer darker shades of green
Never happened to me personally
They were always just starting to peek out from behind the rocks
Rip and tear is the best music in video james
Ill have to disagree ngl
so i reinstalled doom 2016 to play its multiplayer but im running into problems and would like to know if anyone can help,
- If I use Vulkan my screen flashes white but i have constant 200FPS
- If I use OpenGL the performance is more than just poor around 40FPS
- If I use either one and then pick up the Demonrune my game goes down to 5FPS
Go for the 2nd option
...o
1 with vulkan 2 with opengl and 3 with either one
and as you can imagine none of those are good for the multiplayer
DDU your GPU and install the latest driver maybe?
i mean there is no doom eternal soundtrack so
;-;
we dont talk about that
updating my driver didnt work sadly
do you have other ideas how i can fix it?
not real
"lossless" 😭 we lost more than music quality
How is it not real. And the quality is amazing. Trust me. Me and my speakers know
Would have been better as a USB like sigil though
mixing
yes
i like the eternal suit more cuz it looks more cocky and '90 i guess
spikes are cool
But you know what nobody likes about doom eternal?
The beggining speech
Y'know king novik 'n' stuff
But really it was so boring
The doom 2016 was simple and short, and that made it so menacing and savage.
"They are rage... Brutal... Without mercy... But you... You will be worse"
Are words that make you fall from your chair
Followed up by rip and tear until its done
Doom eternal may be the better game, but I like aspects of doom 2016 a little bit more
Such as the way secrets are spread in the levels. They feel more part of the world as opposed to doom eternal’s more cartoony question mark secrets
Overall they scratched the whole horror from eternal
There is nothing scary about it
Doom 2016 had still some horror aspects
Ain’t necessarily a bad thing, cause doom is more known for its action than its horror
Yeah
Can be scary sometimes tho
Like i played doom 3 today and i see exacly what they were mainly going for
Which is horror and not action
Vice versa for doom '16 and eternal
Tho secrets are kinda dum in '16
Yea, but they feel more like a part of the world
True
I also find the animations in doom 2016 a little bit better than eternal
In what sense? Do you mean glory kills or cutscenes? Or both?
Glory kills and death animations
Especially the berserk animations, my god
Ohhoho yeah don't even get me started on this
The only thing that eternal does better then 2016 is the gameplay
And that an important thing
The most important thing in a game is gameplay offcourse
Yeah skins are in eternal now lol
But they are not stupid dumb shid like in fortnite where you buy cosmetics for real money
Well you can now, but those were old skins that couldn’t be accessed again after the season ended
Plus, it’s optional and purely cosmetic, so it’s fine
@late olive
Mhm i guess ur right
I’d like to inform you that there is a discord using your games logo as their logo
ok, but why would you ping an admin?
Idk
- They're allowed to do that? 2) I don't even have any ownership of Doom?

...o
Please don't ping me for that
Sorry boss
hm well that was interesting
Whaat

flashes back to doomguy dabbing in doom 2016

genuinely saddens me that this is real
lord

A sad fate for such a fun multiplayer
Lol
A few days ago, I started playing Doom 2016.
god
It's not too hard, but it's a really good reimagining of Doom!
have you played eternal yet?
I ran it just to see how it looks and runs on my new computer.
lots of people complained about 2016 being easy on release
I think I'm about halfway through 2016.
I decided to start on nightmare difficulty.
presumably john carmack's soul possessed hugo martin at that point to make eternal harder than sandy petersen when he sees a squid
I've just been doing a level or two a day. It's fun.
guys can anyone give me tips to increase fps in doom 2016 ?
What are you running it on?
integrated graphics (dont judge)
Well, what kind of processor?
gotta work with what you got after all
every setting on low is an easy way to get fps
Intel?
ye , I have already done that stuff like lowest settings , vulkan , 720p
oh
ye intel uhd graphics
720p not low enough
isn't vulkan more graphically intensive than open gl
you'll probably need to force it lower than 720
NOPE!
I had read vulkan gives more fps
Vulkan is a much better processor than OpenGL
oh wait im on drugs my bad
hmm ik but the problem is the black bars
then get used to em, oh well 
lmao
also is it just me or does doom eternal run better than 2016
is borderless windowed mode a thing on eternal
no not for the ppl using intel lmao
ye ig
I run Eternal with RTX, so I can't comment. Runs worse on that front.
it has a purely vulkan processor from the start
no OpenGL
i've noticed it makes my pc heat up a lot less than 2016 which is the universal measurement for graphical intensity
and to give yall a bit on insight, this is my game, run on all default mac settings, everything on low, + a few console commands and vsync disabled
if it is you maybe able to force the game to fill the screen if the res js still 16 by 9
worth it
ohhh yes I forgor there is an option to keep the aspect ratio the same 💀
also, use these console commands
vt_filter 0
vt_maxaniso 1
jobs_numthreads 4(or 2, it depends on how many cores you have)
r_shadowAtlasWidth 32
r_imageAtlasMaxAniso 1
for that much fps I'd sell my soul to the super shot gun when I get eternal
ok thank you
decreasing the shadows can really help
which is what r_shadowAtlasWidth 32 does
it gets rid of most shadows
and it doesn't affect the game much at all aesthetic wise
How did you send an image?
send it as a discord link, which then embeds it as a message
hm, destroyed facility, correct?
Yeah

The giga chad way of playing
I am probably the only person that uses demo
yes
just installed 2016 on xbox one. here we go
Anybody else on PC/Steam had issues with screenshotting in the game? When I pressed the F12 button the game just went weird and its like all the lighting in the scene went off lol
Just beat ARC on UN. Think this may actually be the run
I'm taking it nice and slow. Gonna practice the rest of the levels a lot before I make a real attempt on each of them
Great idea. You got this
anyone still play the multiplayer of 2016?
If I still had 2016, I would be
well, I was trying to get all the achievements recently. got lv 200 in 6h today. (and enough for almost all mp achievements, except that 2 that need a lot of xp grind)
there were some people on the european server, also after a while (like, 2 hours ago) i found some guys on the american server
Doom 2016 is on gamepass should I get?
yes
doom
happened to me
@brave gate
Not sure if this belongs more in this channel or eternal’s channel but if I am correct 2016’s last update was 6.66?
So does that mean 6.66 may be the last update for eternal too or was that just a coincidence or sumn
Sorry if it’s a stupid question or already been disclosed by Bethesda because I don’t really keep up to date on development a lot
Eternal is much much more popular than 16 was, and it's much more replayable. As long as id is making money, they'll keep updating
the next doom game is gonna be in a super-duper long time anyways so i expect the service for it to last significantly longer
Then there's me who can keep playing 2016 like it came out yesterday
Me too
we dont even know if their next game will be doom or not
Tbh Id rather have a Quake remake right now than another Doom game
Id put money on that
I really want to see what id would come up with for it
I agree, I’d like to see iD shift focus to another IP for a bit. As much as I love the Doom franchise.
Yeah it would be cool if id shifted its focus on Sonic
yes 🗿
catacombs 3D 2 WHEN id???
Maybe work on the next doom take your time but have the next release quake reboot
Yeah, that’d be nice.
Got the Cyberdemon glory kill bug earlier practicing Lazarus Labs. I swear if that happens during my UN run...
so it wouldn't glory kill?
My bad
@unborn glacier I’ve never gotten to play with real people
I don’t have a eternal I’ve Beaten the campaign and I don’t know what to do I really enjoy 2016 but no one plays the multiplayer anymore
Then wanna friend up on steam to play?
Yes
I don’t have a mic that works though
So i cant vc in Anything
Even the mic on my phone doesn’t work
But yes
@unborn glacier What is your user name you can DM me
Um ok
sorry was in a game
same name
Ok
Yeah, it's leg flashes and when change color when I'm close enough, but I never get the action prompt nor does using the actual key do anything, so you can never kill it. I've seen clips of it happening on the Mastermind but never experienced it before.
Yeah, after about 10 or so seconds
breh
And staggering it again didn't fix
that's so annoying
Thankfully it was just a practice run on a different save file
can you reload checkpoints on UN? I'm pretty sure not
smh
@unborn glacier oh it was you 
i was playing with you like 10 min ago
I rejected your friend request sorry
Luckily by the time you're doing un the game won't take you to long anyways
@unborn glacier are You still up to play
Kinda tired but Ill send you a message later or tomorrow
Yep, happened to me with the Spider-Mastermind on UN. I just force closed the game. I’d say that tactic is justifiable when the game unavoidably screws you over. Any other time I’d be against it.
If you didn’t know. Force closing on UN acts as a crash, so your game will be saved to the last checkpoint.
Again I wouldn’t use this unless you get softlocked or something. It’s better to do UN legit, cheesing it brings no satisfaction.
cheesing
holo-swapping?
Well, if you consider that cheesing.
I’m mostly talking about game breaking glitches and bypasses.
If the game fucks you I don't see a cheese as a bad thing in that circumstance
Does anyone have any idea how to equip the bfg9000? I managed to kill the spider mastermind without the bfg but now it won't let me do the glory kill because it won't let me equip the weapon.
...you don't need to equip the weapon
It's scripted that Doomguy gets the bfg out and kills the Mastermind
But he won't let me kill him !!
I mean, it's stuck there and I hit the e and it doesn't kill it, it doesn't do anything
Oh god it's resolved, restart the game and it's unlocked
God made me sweat for a moment
🤣
Thanks also
One time I had to kill it like 5 or 6 times because I was a dumbass and kept pressing E instead of F
didnt die though pog
You do realize that E is not the glory kill button right?
It's F
Unless your rebound it to the E key
And the BFG 9000 cutscene happens automatically
You don't need to equip the BFG for it
Idk where you got that idea from
that's honestly weird
I must have a blessed copy of 2016
the only bugs that I encountered throughout the game were:
- Imp firing balls from behind a wall
- Wicked Cyberdemon - Pretending to be in the idle animation until I get real close to him
- Confused Imp - Stuck in the middle of the battlefield for no reason and can't reach you
Number 2 is my favorite scenario. I've got my own head canon for that
lmfaooo you don't know the disappointment I felt when it happened, but at the same time it was incredibly funny
I would love to see the second lmao
What, with alt f4?
aside from the railing boost bug killing me a few times before i realized to stay away from railings, and clipping through the floor once while going too fast (glory kill speed/distance runes) on arcade (i managed to save the run by glory killing a new target to clip back through to solid ground), the main bug i recall is a specific hell knight in the last level often having absurdly high health in like 1/3 of my runs
would take like 3 minutes to kill. i was worried it would happen during my 100% UN run, but it's not really dangerous, just time-consuming
Any way of force closing. So yes.
only used it once lol
its better to try to not get yourself into shitty situations
dying is like one of the things that lets you know you just got into one
Yeah I really just wanted it for security during the boss fights
Four more levels and the torment will finally be over
Think I've spent the last 100 in game hours attempting UN
I'm so tired 😩
I have around 48 minutes to go until I get to 100
Yeah, it's been rough
But the drive has been strong lately
I feel good about this run, but it's still stressful
yeah I get why you would want saving throw there lmao
what other runes do you use normally?
Don't forget about those breaks super important
Equipment Power, Ammo Boost, and In Flight Mobility
Also Rich Get Richer
Will swap out In Flight Mobility for it for certain fights
Oh no doubt. I had taken about a month long break from Doom at one point
Also important to get mastery for all of them
Since you get BFG ammo from demons with the Ammo Boost mastery
And the siphon grenade combined with equipment Power makes it easy to get full health and Ammo quickly to exploit rich get richer
I usually use like almost the same set, I dont remember what I usually use instead of Equipment Power though
In my current run I started trying out more runes and got a more health oriented set down. (Equipment Power/Savagery/Seek and Destory) Kinda want to make it my full time set now ngl
Seek and Destroy is just straight up OP
I really like the rune that gives you a speed boost on glory kill, but I just don't glory kill enough in UN to make it worth it
Can be great otherwise. Basically perma-haste
Definitely not worth it on un. If I do glory kill its when I know I have the arena secure anyways
Yep
Rich is cheese for sure. That's a good plan if you're just trying to smash un
Yeah I still find myself preferring in flight mobility over rich get richer
my main issue with RGR is that I just cant keep myself above 100 armour
even with siphon
although I just started using that
It's pretty easy to get the mastery shortly after getting it though. Can use a single possessed soldier and let it clip you, then siphon until full
Rinse and repeat 12 times
Seek and destroy is literally broken
You need to get away from a baron? Chainsaw that imp in the distance lmao
I feel like doom 2016 as a whole is
Thats were target finding is super important at the start of a fight especially on nightmare. You want to clear those easy targets fast with rich and get those pick ups before you take any damage
I'll finally be able to play some more tmr and continue my NM run from UAC
Niiiiice
Imp are literally super heavies with the amount of damage they deal
Nice! Yeah I finally have free time again too
They're like the revenants of D2, absolute fucking glass cannons
Dev rounds man. They have a actual purpose when it comes to imps
Its not a popular choice I know
So many UN runs lost to sniping imps
The achievements are killing me
where the fuck are those 1 or 2 codex entries I missed
lets not even talk about the challenges, ugh
At least in Eternal they only lead shots when the movement becomes predictable after a while but in 2016, no
They literally take the player's next position immediately and automatically throw their fireballs
1 or 2 seconds of moving left? Fireball thrown to the left
If you stop you're fucked. You need to keep moving and have the arena movement planned. You'll get snipped so fast if you stop to think of a plan
Yeah
I might just cheese NM the way I'll cheese UN
Or maybe not, since I do have checkpoints
Well I mean you're not recording it or anything so why not
Or maybe I am 👀
oh yes I want to see that juicy low quality 4:3 gameplay
If you are make sure to post it when you're done. Love to see runs and how they're different from me
More of that coming lol
Like that first cyberdemon fight that I posted
Died to an overextension of melee attack LMAO
oh god I actually cant remember it
gotta love random deaths
I subbed to you already right?
Think so
Lots of explosive barrels, still only have your Shotgun. So many fireballs and soldier charged shots flying around
I might actually try to practice UAC several times over and post a no death run of the full level
Once I get it down
Nah, I'll just jump on this rail and climb up to the next area
Explosive barrels...
The one with the elevator after? yeah....
I take Barrels O' Fun upgrade for serious granted
Yep
I stood just barely 1 foot outside of the blast range
Always upgrade that first
Died due to barrel explosion
Yeah i spent my first token into environment upgrades
Environment damage is NO JOKE
Chaos blitz?
The Lost Soul's charge sound is literally one of the scariest things in a game for me
Yep
Gotcha
I hate lost losts but they aren't as annoying than in classic to me
Yeah but man I love 2016 lost souls so much more than classic haha
At least you can blow em away eith a single shotgun blast
Im just having my fun then boom
an exploding skull in my face killing me/taking 3/4ths of my health
And they're basically mobile barrels
Launch em into a group of fodder, explosion
Lost souls in classic though, absolute assholes
I can rant about them all day
Truth
thats a thing? wow
But D2016 lost souls? Nah, they're pretty fine
From what Ive seen, in Eternal its like Lost Souls dont even exist
Yeah, you remember that challenge where you have to kill another lost soul with a lost soul
always hated that
That's bc explosions
never understood how I managed to get it
I think even using blast damage from a lost soul to kill another lost soul is possible
To achieve that challenge
They definitely do and pain elementals too
Since the blast is part of the lost souls's physiology
From what Ive seen they get spawned in by them and do... nothing?
They explode as well
Anyone else kinda feel bad for killing Pinkies in 2016? There like little puppies that just wanna play? Probably my favorite demon
The pain elemental actually throws em from what i remember
One of the PE's attacks is throwing lost souls onto the ground to act as landmines
Get near one and boom, like 50 damage
Love their design but enjoy killing them. And specs
I dont know, probably the fact that I havent really played Eternal in ages
definitely not on anything higher than HMP too
Yeah it's definitely fun to out maneuver them
I could see Slayer keeping one as a pet
Pinkies are easy to take care of using remote detonation
I love remote det better than Lock On but lock on has its use in rapid dps combos
Shoot a rocket, lock on, shoot 3 more rockets, then 1 last rocket
Yup
5 rocket barrage
Lock On is just more satisfying to use for me
I wonder, how would playing the first arena in eternal like 2016 be
No mods at all, no double jump
especially because of those rapid fire combos, my god
Rocket hit shotgun Nad hit troll with the dev rounds for fun fuck the glory kill
Remote Detonation is better in terms of pure damage though, since lock on is actually weaker than standard unmodded rockets
Remote definitely is superior
love my RL mod journey
lock on -> remote det -> situational
The two mods are definitely situational
I'd equip remote detonation most of the time
Against a single tanky enemy like a baron i might use lock on for a rapid combo
Are there any mod swap animation skips?
Remote i use more frequently
Yes, with mod swapping
Shoot a weapon, press the mod switch button, then immeditaly switch over to another weapon
The weapon you mod swapped on will have the next mod in line equipped
Yeah I've learned the way of the remote detonation
Like a CSG and plasma rifle combo
Really?
Bleed definitely helps and if it stacks you're in business
Mhm
Wow
iirc Eternal has this thing where you can swap mods from the Weapon Wheel
is that not present here?
Imma be honest I have never used remote detonation in both 2016 and Eternal
It takes 6 locked on rockets to kill a hell knight
Lol
With remote detonation and fully upgraded, it takes 2 to kill one
1 even if you have "External Payload" mastery
Which fires an extra rocket for the cost of 1
I tested this in foundry since I knew there were a lot of hell knights in that level
I was going to say one should do it and even with out that a switch to shotgun can do the trick
for combos i always do triple shot from shotgun and ssg shot
i do that on revenants
Micro missiles are best for finishers
You can just spam em on a demon and then focus on another one
Because it'll eventually kill it
Mastered micro missiles plus rich get richer makes for a fun time
True
For revenants, I remember doing heat blast + ssg
Or explosive shot + SSG
Or rocket launcher + ssg
Oh my god why does the Snapmap feature take so long to looaaddd
Micro Missiles + SSG + Guass Canon
with some Overdrive mixed in(or whatever the power up's name is)
Or even just DKSMS lmao
The Baron combo for me was always Micro Missiles + Guass + Rockets
Automatically kills a revenant
tf is a DKSMS
Hmm grenades as well
Donkey kong SMS?
That takes em out? I always just do double SSG + ballista
Named after Dreamer-King, who was the one who brought it up to attention to the doom community
You hold down the alt fore button on another weapon
it works for me at least
Switch over to gauss cannon equipped with siege mode
Right before the gauss cannon finishes swapping, press the fire key
Automatically fires a fully charged Siege Mode shot
Without the movement penalty
holy shid
I have examples of it's usage in one of my videos
man Revenants in modern doom are fucking pathetic
truth 100
Too overpowered. Mastery or full upgrades isn't even needed due to DKSMS(Instant Siege Mode Shot) and it trivializes everything in the game when paired with double-shot SSG. DKSMS isn't even extremely hard to pull off and can be used in swaps for even higher DPS output. It's actually insane. When paired with RGR(Rich get Richer) your DPS output ...
mmm dat gameplay doe
I use DKSMS nearly everytime I pull out the gauss cannon
tf
op
doom 2016 does not have any glitches
at all
And that stun
.
good
doom 2016 but balanced wen?
i find myself dying more in doot 2016 then in doot eternal
idk what do people mean when they say "eTeRnAl Is HaRd"
if that's hard play '16 dude
at least before you get siege mode
and double ssg shot
but even then
glory killing is so fricking dumb
its not really hard doe
whn i glory kill for health instantly after the glory kill someone thorws a fireball at me and i fricking die
unable to defend myself
like me with my shitty aim and muscle memory can get along on NM with the worse mods fine
Yeah ikr
Blood fueled or savagery, my man
Run away fast enough or not give them enough time to charge a fireball
huh
that works?
Yeah
My rune getup is usually Savagery, SAD, and Ammo Boost
Since I play aggressively and with no RGR(I dont like it) i chainsaw regularly or to get out of a stick situation for IFs
Mine is Seek and destroy, Dazed and confused and Rich get Richer
Yeah, Seek And Destroy or SAD as i like to call it for short
SAD is wack with its reach
You can chainsaw stuff like half an arena away
Blood Fueled also activates on a chainsaw kill
So if you have SAD and Blood Fueled, you can get some IFs to take a break, then get out fast enough to not get hit
I was thinking about the plasma rifle stun bomb being able to be combo'd when doing ssg + guass
like you ssg guass a baron and when he jumps at you you stun bomb him so you don't get hit
Stun a seige is a great combo
Stun a seige is a great combo
very
we know
siege headshotting Hell Knights is very poggers
Thats hot
e
Seige makes me pog my pants
Funny thing
Using the plasma rifle's rate of fire + stun bomb you can holo swap into DKSMS for huge damage
Then proceed to holo swap out of DKSMS
And absolutely destroy anything
This is why I have a love/hate relationship with Siege Mode
Holo swapping is great tho
I am finally ready to reveal my secret power in DOOM 2016: the Holo Swap. This quick switching technique is enabled by a subtle use of the hologram itself, one of DOOM's equipment pieces. As I show in my guide, the sequence of inputs hologram - swap cancels the recovery animations of weapons and mods, most noticeable in the case of explosive sho...
Yeah I gave holo swapping a try. The only issue for me is the key bindings I have set up aren't optimal for that. Gotta stretch my pinky to get the equipment button, so don't that constantly would probably start to hurt after a while
And I'm worried about trying to mess with my bindings and then muscle memory taking over at the wrong spot
your issue is not with siege mode
it is with manipulating an unintended exploit for instant-siege fire
there's a difference
it's bizarre you complain about one such technique while worshipping the other
Its all love love here. The issue is not knowing when to use it
Even then I still don't like siege mode
Enemies are not physically mobile or fast enough to catch you if you stand far away and charge siege
It's easiest if you have a mouse with side buttons
Very true
I'm not so much about worshipping holo swapping either
I'm not like "it's the only way to play"
Regular swapping is still completely fine and holo swapping has its downsides compared to regular swapping that's interrupted by CSG or HAR
Like for example holo swapping doesn't take into account for internal weapon cooldown becausebof how fast it is
projectiles are pretty fast, as are the demons. the tradeoff to siege is that you're largely immobile while charging it in a game that's all about demons getting up in one's grill. siege is meant as a reward for powering it up and unlocking its mastery for at least a bit of mobility (not that you even need the limited mobility if you know when to use it and safely create some time and/or distance), and using it in place of a constant barrage of whatever else you have (or regular quick-swapping). that's intended design
With holo swapping the gauss cannon is in cooldown so much of the time due to how fast it is
insta-siege isn't intended, but that's not a problem with siege, that's a problem with the dev team being unaware of the quick-swapping exploits found
holo-swapping is just as game-breaking
It is if you really master it
But it is hard to get really consistent unless you're a god like sylar or fatmetro
It's just... idk there's something about siege that I don't necessarily like too much
dksms, heh
Exactly. Using it right requires you have situational awareness
Kinda
That not is not supposed to be there
holo-swapping seems pretty easy, if you have the nade-whatever key on an ergonomic key, like side mouse buttons
Meanwhile In controller world
It's easy to perform but it takes time to get consistent and you need to have some understanding of interal weapon cooldowns
Especially if you mix it with mods
And in combat
It's still quite broken though
definitely
No excuse for that
You can delete barons in 2 seconds when combined with mod swapping too
Ok
it's a bit of a silly debate to be had anyway, what's cheaper than what, in a game where you can just infinitely bfg everything in sight most of the time
or stun/quickswap everything in general
Soft faltering exists in 2016 pretty sure
Exactly and than can be said for swapping in general. It really is personal preference
2016 is unique like that
You have enough ammo to run through the game with the SSG
So if you wanna play like that, go for it
Jeezus christ my keyboard is faulty
And i don't mean that message in an offensive way
i never understood that. like the ssg is great and all, but mostly in conjunction with other weapons. i can't imagine why anyone would go through the game solely using it as their only weapon (outside of like, an intentional challenge or whatever)
Anyway... i meant to say swapping seems to add more to the gameplay(just swapping in general) and make it more interesting so i like it
I hate those runs I'm sorry. I don't see the joy in it
Some people did that for ease of gameplay 
When DE released a lot of people complained about running out of ammo all the time
Ssg can be made to be a beast I get it but I would never just use that alone
Which I assume they're using the SSG a lot
Because you can cycle between weapons
So "running out of ammo" is kinda funny
You're not running out of ammo, you're running out of shells from using the SSG so much
Me neither tbh, seems boring
it's a bit ironic, for most games i avoid glitches and try to play as close to the way the devs intended. otherwise it just feels cheesy, and if i were to exploit holo-swapping i feel i'd may as well just rail-boost through half the game's levels. but one game i still play 20 years later is Team Fortress Classic, which is a game where the entire meta has been defined by exploiting unintended features, like bunnyhopping, ramp-sliding, hh conc jumping, etc. so when we discovered something similar to doom's faster swapping methods (was probably before doom 2016, though it was still a late discovery in the game's lifespan), it kinda breathed new life into the possibilities. but even for tfc it was deemed too powerful, and the community banned it
I see the argument often. Doom 2016 isn't as good as eternal because you CAN use just the ssg. But truth is on high level play no not really at all and 2.. why would you
you won't really appreciate the context of how broken the technique in this video can be, and i imagine most ppl in this chan won't get over the dated graphics (though i use my own ultra-minimalistic textures and such), but this is similar in concept and execution
boring video since i don't include a showcase of dominating with it, heh
Graphics mean nothing to me. Atheistic and gameplay
. I'll check it out
