You're right, I can't sit idly by while weird fuckers are getting weirder so I will take action and tell you to calm down anon. It's quite okay that people play how they want to.

>>7121624
Very agreeable and thoughtful post.

Assuming all goes well, HUH will finally come out by the end of next week.
Haven't received any maps from stragglers in the meantime, which is unfortunate but not completely unexpected.

Yes its going to be one of those
I was trying to come up with an alternate title since this one wont be based on an existing "SO YOU WANT TO PLAY SOME" chart, but maybe its for the best to leave it at that.

>>5421469
As much as I think Swatting demons would be a cool idea for a mod they completely fucked it up by not even trying to make them look like UAC marines, hell all it takes is green armor and a spacey looking helmet.
Any generic space marine design would have been better than this, Its the first movie all over again.

But then again I had no expectations to begin with.

you mean this?

thanks anons
Im going to bed now, see what comes up in the morning, its pretty late here

>>5000705
>It would make sense to actually show footage of sourceports as you talk about them.
I did show footage of each sourceport as they came up, maybe you mean the menus and such?
also as the other anon said the brutal doom plug was a bait & swtich

>>5000715
yeah I should have figured that out, I will replace that with some more HND in Ancient Aliens

>>5000718
Im sorry but Im a sucker for Term and his Zscript devil magicks

>>5000720
>seeing that almost made me want to work on it again

I remember when you shared some ideas you had for possible new playable classes here, I was pretty stoked back then, Im glad I helped rekindle that, even if just by a little bit.

Also the links in the Zdoom post are dead, we cant deprive possible new players off their dose of BURL TUMD, can't we?

I started with some snippets of gameplay to set up the video, but so far I only did a quick rundown on source ports, Chocolate, Crispy, GZDOOM and PRBOOM+ and a quick shoutout to zandronum, the real meat is going to be rather simple showcase of gameplay mods and maps

the whole thing is basically a ripoff of the prodoomer monster strats style wise, so you wont hear my horrible accent on a cheapass mic
so far I featured clips from:
HND+AA
Mutiny+CA
FinalDoomer+ JPCP
Demonsteele+Sythe 2
GMOTA

besides expanding on those I plan to cover Pillow mods, HND+Strange Aeons, LTG, D4T/D4D, Doom Incarnate/kriegsland, colorful hell, champions, HD, Space Hunter, BURL TUMD, MSX, GMOTA Im sure Im forgetting some


>>4995064
nice, still the more time you take the more excuses I have to give this shit some spit and polish, I never edited video in my life so its really gonna show here

how would your list of "must play maps" look like?

You got your scythes, Vendetta, memento mori, hell revealed, but do you also consider modern stuff like AA and GD?
do you go by historical importance or prioritize whats fun to play?
do you think old stuff still holds up compared to newer offerings?

who did it better?
>D44M
D4D or D4T?

>nu Wolfenstein
Doom incarnate or Kriegsland?

>you are Conan now
>arm blade
>shoulder flamethrower
>climb walls
>you can dash now
>Grappling hook
>a crossbow?
>flaregun
>daemonic launcher
>dark souls invasion?
>oh look the old plasma rifle is back

smells like scripted gameplay, but Im casually optmistic
>Doom universe
pfffffff ahahaha

>seems they dialed back the arenas in favor of more open levels
>HUEG DAEMONIC LIGHSABER

Im honestly more exited by the gameplay mods this is going to inspire

I have this little dumb idea for a community project:
I would call it "In the realms of vanilla" it would be a collection of maps specifically designed for gameplay mods, yeah it would be a bit annoying to have to change wads every time you finish a level, but you would have a hub area like in compendium so you don't have use the console to jump around levels

sadly Im just learning to map so I still dont have the technical knowhow to put all that shit together

Gimme something to listen to while I map
I dont care if its a podcast or music, I'm open to anything, right now Im listening to the Good Doom Music playlist on YT

Just played Hideous Destructor with Diabolus Ex, a surprisingly good fit, I still have no idea how the Cyberdemon on the cyber bridge suicided himself however.
And the final battle in the roof would have been fucking impossible if not for me finding a backpack with two of those ghost marine summons.

>giving the archvile a teleport
why
>the caco deals spash damage
why
>you can waste a revenant with 3 shotgun shots
man this shotgun is almost too useful, I love it
>cant get the hang of the grenade tripwire trick no matter how many times I try
for a mod that prides itself on realism it sounds kinda silly to arm a grenade with string and some bubblegum, maybe its actually a thing, I dunno
>enemies resurrect randomly
I wasn't playing on nightmare
>tiny pinkies
its funny but why
>the big pinkies have improved cloack
why

It was quite fun all in all, as punishing as expected and then some, what else should I try this thing on?
