Marketing destroys everything. I bet we only have a bunch of dumb MP DLC because they thought that MP would carry the game and were wrong so now we're stuck with no new SP content other than Arcade Mode, which is great but still.

Jack Trades posted:Marketing destroys everything. I think this is the reason. The fact that all of the season pass DLC would be multiplayer only was known prior to the game release, and I think when the game released and everyone loved the single player but not the multiplayer, they had already invested too much time/money to change things, not to mention potentially angering the people that did enjoy the multiplayer. It seems like the arcade mode/snapmap campaign stuff is there attempt to create more single player content with the limited amount of resources that aren't devoted to creating the already promised Season Pass DLC.

Good luck.

I like the idea of arcade mode, I just wish they had modified the maps to remove all the key hunting and switch throwing. I never want to not be ripping and tearing demon guts.Jack Trades posted:Marketing destroys everything. Doom came out right before Overwatch hit. MP Doom was Doomed from the start.

The Kins posted:The exact wording was "We currently don’t have any plans to create additional campaign content directly". Which probably leaves some back-doors open for them to release exactly that in some form, but for now it's just kinda disappointing. I would happily give them $15 for a single-player mission pack. I though publishers liked money?

holy gently caress ultra nightmare in arcade is so satisfying I cannot beat the second map because I am absolutely loving poo poo at fps but it KINDA feels like less horribly difficult devil daggers but with more rip and tear. I need to become less poo poo at fps

Was Carmack involved in this? Because it runs so good, I have to believe he waved his magic dick all over this.

Oh god. There's Bronze, Silver, and Gold rankings. If you cross a hidden threshold (likely only possible by getting all Gold relics and the Doomguys bonuses), they combine into Slayer ranking. Slayer ranking. S-Rank. EDIT: Confirmed that you don't need all the bonuses, but they certainly help with crossing the threshold. No, I still haven't found the second Doomguy in Foundry

I guess co-op campaign/arcade is still a pipe dream but arcade mode seems like a step in the right direction.

So do the extra lives actually work or is saving throw still the best bet? With saving throw on I dont feel like I get an additional chance. Or maybe I am just getting punked more than I notice.

Or maybe I am just getting punked more than I notice. Extra lives let you restart from checkpoint. If you don't have any you have to start the whole level over. Of course there are no checkpoints on ultra nightmare and extra lives are just for points.

Anyway just played my first ever map on Ultra Nightmare and got Slayer Rank. Pretty happy about that. Not happy anout placing only 501, might need a second try. Goddamn was it fun though. Doom is so good.

That Cyberdemon is not a very nice fellow. Almost has as much tricks up my sleeve as I do. If anyone is bored, here's a guy fighting the Cyberdemon on an Ultra-Nightmare run using only the pistol and grenades. Also makes clever use of his other weapons and runes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyVVc0FcS4E&t=13431s

Arcade is fantastic! Got into the top 10 on one of the levels, hell yeah. I never really used runes when I was playing before. Discovering the magic of long range glory kill + fast glory kill + berserk was an experience. It's like moving through a tunnel made of gibs.

Another thing that I liked about Doom was that in most games where there is a change in setting to a new world, you cross over and then you're there. It's an often criticized part of a game, like the Xen levels of Half-Life, the Trigens in FarCry, etc. Here however you're hopping back and forth which helps keep things fresh and moderates any potential (I didn't have any) problems a player might have with the 2nd setting. Doom owns.

It's sort of implied to be the end goal in a way that your other two examples weren't. The big improvement they made in that department was having four huge hell levels instead of just one. They really learned on that score after Doom 3.

HOLY FUCKIN poo poo ARGENT ENERGY TOWER IS SO INTENSE ON ULTRA NIGHTMARE. I'm honestly in love with this pacing though, I think that whole level took all of 5 minutes. The last bit is truly a score attack, as you can survive without killing anything until you get teleported to hell, ending the level.  Where's the 2nd barbie doll at? Didn't see it anywhere obvious. The relics are kind of annoying, multiple times I've had the orb shoot right through me, w/ or w/o vacuum. They do so little damage that there's almost always something more important to shoot until everything is dead FPS Skillpro tips: Crank your sens up and set FOV to 110. Air Movement rune is critical, even if you'll kill yourself a ton off boosters from forgetting that you have it.

I'm a big fan of the long range glory kills, but I feel like finishing them faster would only get me killed more, because I often use the invuln from the animation to eat incoming damage heh

Good luck. I found a fix. DOOM launches and plays by adding this command to the launch settings via Steam. It's seems the problem is something to do with Vulkan. -gl -w 1280 +sys_lang english +sys_langPlatform english +com_gameMode 2 +com_restarted 1 +r_renderAPI -2

Noticing that a LOT of waypoints are outright wrong/broken in the later stages. They'll point you towards where you need to go while totally ignoring the item(s) and screens you need to interact with before you can access them. I'm also not very interested in looking around for the barbie dolls/relics. Starts to feel a lot less like Arcade and a lot more like a chore, which is the opposite of fun.

It's not a great strategy since you can still get pwned by a hit landing a millisecond after the fatality animation ends. No I'm not bitter

No I'm not bitter Pro strat is to mash jump and a direction (assuming you have air control), I haven't been killed post-glory kill once since I started doing this Also, I'm happy there are several additional barons on the later maps on UN. They seemed too easy on just UV/Nightmare. New Zealand can eat me fucked around with this message at 16:46 on Oct 27, 2016 |
