Espeically so in Demonsteele when your movement is so fast that you can get in on anything shooting at you with just one jump dash. Not to mention dem sword waves.

And in TSP you have guns and melee doesn't hurt enough to focus on it
And in GMOTA? More fun to arc axes while closing the distance. Or lances.

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong with it but it feels so forced when I try to pull enemies in general.

I will say TSP does have melee stun states and a quick switch. What could I do to make melee more of a focus? The mod will always have fancy guns and what not, but I do like punching things.

I actually want Imps and Hell Knights to be able to whiff melee attacks, so that'll probably be getting added in. Nothing like punching an Imp, dodging, then getting a fireball to the face.

>> No.2270353

>>2270343
I'm not judging the quality of the grappling hooks.
I just don't really feel natural using them and since they aren't instant like the Mag Grapple it feels even more awkward.

It's just everyone has quite a lot of ways to get in to deal their killing moves.
And pulling an enemy just feels really awkward to me.

Like out of everything I've used in gameplay mods the pulling stuff is the one that feels janky.

>> No.2270361

>>2270353

Yeah. I can see that, I don't use the grappler often in GMOTA either, and I LOVE hookshots, I think overhauling it or replacing it would be a real bad idea because Christ almighty I need to show a little self control there.

I guess I don't really find Melee as a focus too much in TSP because something like say.. Buckshot hurts way more than the fists ever feel like they can.

Maybe make finishing moves for combos hurt more and have some special properties? I also don't feel too much incentive to do combos out of doing the PPPKPPPK loop since finishers are kind of pointless.
PPPKK, PPPP, PPKPPK.. all take the same number of hits to kill a Hellknight. This really needs to be worked on.

You can also make each hit feel stronger as you go further along in a combo.
Or like.. I don't know maybe gauntlets with charge attacks or something.

I am assuming the sword will basically become the definitive melee choice since ideally it should hurt more and have combos.

Just to clarify it's not the combo system itself that's the issue.
Everything just feels like a series of 1 though, so all that really matters is what racks up the number of hits faster.

It's not like DMC1(As an example) where the standard three hit combo did a sequence of 1-2-3 with the third hit having knockback, or the standard five hit combo was a 1-2(Pause) 3-3(Pause) 4.

Using GMOTA as an example, the punch combo is very basic(Only a 1-2-3-4) but each hit feels different from one another outside of visuals due to how it works(2 hits harder, 3 has a pause at the start and hits even harder, 4 has an AoE and large knockback)
And you really really feel the difference if you just drain your stamina and do only 1s.

The big problem with this is how much of Loreshot is native behavior. It's not fastprojectile, so at higher speeds it moves [speed] amount of units every tic, which sometimes allows it to just bypass enemies completely.
It's not really feasible to rewrite the Loreshot attack, and it's not really customizable, so it's really kind of...for lack of a better word, squishy.

So would combo enders dealing stronger push back and damage be the best way to go about making it feel better?

Anything to make punching dudes feel better.

Do not nerf enemies too much if at all.
Standard Doom demons have a pretty noticeable pause and rhythm to their attacks and if you're fighting a horde of enemies then chances are you're probably going to want to bust out some heavy firepower(Unless the sword is going to be THAT good)

You could toss in new enemies like what GMOTA guy is doing though, or you can remix enemies like what Demonsteele does with it's enemies.

The important thing is to make them fun to fight.

>> No.2270398

>>2270387
>>2270372
>>2270350

Imo the biggest problem holding TSP back is that you're trying to have your cake and eat it, too.
GMOTA and Demonsteele work because they focus emphatically on melee, and all of the enemy behaviors, encounters, and etc are adjusted around accommodating that. Demonsteele's enemies all have indicators saying they're gonna attack and you need to dodge. GMOTA's enemies focus on getting in close to you.

TSP, though, uh...well, you're trying to make guns super fun. And then you're trying to make melee super intricate. And both of them are at the complete opposite spectrum of gameplay styles, especially in first-person, and the enemies aren't really designed around either. You've got shitscanners, long-range enemies, fast enemies, all designed for traditional gunfights, and then you've got this super-intricate melee system that isn't really designed for handling them. But if you adjust the enemies to accommodate a melee focus, then the gunplay is going to suffer quite a bit for it.

Basically, TSP doesn't seem like a melee mod at all, it's just got an extremely in-depth system that's maybe inspired by Tekken? But there's not a whole lot of reason to actually use it.
And that's not even getting into how much I hate dial-a-combo melee.

>> No.2270409

>>2270387
>So would combo enders dealing stronger push back and damage be the best way to go about making it feel better?
This would help a lot and add substance to the combo system.
Like I said right now(As of latest test version) there's not much of a reason to not do the looping infinite combo.
The player does not really miss anything by not doing finishers and since every hit hurts the same amount(Even though I see two blood splatters on some attacks) it doesn't feel like I have a reason to branch out.

By taking say.. The standard three kick combo and making the last hit have some pushback and extra damage(Maybe a heavier sound for it too) suddenly it sticks out as a move for crowd control and enemies getting pushed back makes it feel stronger.
Things like that really adds a lot.
Maybe PPPKK can cause a slightly longer flinch to lead to more damage and have a snappy sound to it to let the knee into kick feel better.
These are just examples though but the idea is that finishers have a practical use and there is more incentive to go for them.
You could also turn the PPPKPPPP into a proper sort of rapidfire punch deal.

Bringing up GMOTA again, I use fists over the sword entirely because the punches feel great. Punches 3 and 4? Favorite things.
The sword is good too and the sounds are as well but I really like the punch sounds and how it feels to knock enemies back with them.

I got the latest version on Github and I have to say, it's pretty hard to melee zombies and imps.

But Hell Knights/Barons are kind of easy to melee when isolated.

Well that guy that replaces two zombies once in awhile is pretty tough.
He could at least drop some slight healing here and there to make up for his fighting power.

But for Barons and Hell Knights they do not really get much of a chance to fight back if isolated.
They're pretty slow and vulnerable to being punched and kicked all day.

I just figure if melee is kind of made to be a focus then lighter enemies should be reasonably meleeable with tougher enemies requiring more firepower.

But I am only viewing it from a melee perspective.
The guns and stuff feel fine and work pretty well for gunning enemies down.

Okay well I decided to test it on Whitemare 2 map 28. Where it gets pretty slaughtery.
Then I just skipped to the hordes of enemies.

This is what I found.
>Beam is very inconsistent with damage(One shotted a Cyberdemon at one point. Took 8 full charges on another. Sometimes Revenants and Cacodemons will survive direct hits but other times it can 2-3 of them)
>Beam is inconsistent with tracking enemies between one another(Tends to bump into walls which dissipates the beam instantly or just stops after a certain amount of enemies at what feels like random)
>Plasma takes 2 cells but it feels like it's weaker than the plasma rifle's single shot
>Sometimes it just flies off into the air and never hits anything but 1-2 enemies.
>Sometimes it just rams into walls for no reason
For the most part it feels random.

I like the concept of the beam but maybe you could make it so it bounces off walls instead of breaking right then and there?
The tracking needs work.

In very large open areas it works a little better but if there's any sort of wall or cramped space it quickly stops being worth the 40 cell investment.

>> No.2270621

>>2270593
>>2270606 again
I also play on all sorts of level sets so really I was just asking to see how well it should be performing.

I tested another level with really really cramped packs of enemies in an open space and it can kill around 18-21 Imps per 40 cells.
Which seems fine.
Kills 2-3 barons at a time per 40 cells if they're packed together.

How does the beam work exactly? It's hard to point out what's wrong with it besides obvious glaring faults like ramming into walls

>Beam is very inconsistent with damage(One shotted a Cyberdemon at one point.
That's actually a bug, it shouldn't be able to one shot the cyberdemon or spidermastermind, I think I forgot to adjust the amount of time they stay ghosts after a shot when I last changed some stuff around. The idea behind it is lots of damage to groups of enemies or even groups of toughies so long as it has more than one enemy to jump between. Deals massive damage at higher charges in the explosion, so if you want to one shot an archie you can aim it near the archie and hit it that way, but the radius damage won't affect bosses.

>Beam is inconsistent with tracking enemies between one another(Tends to bump into walls which dissipates the beam instantly or just stops after a certain amount of enemies at what feels like random)
>Sometimes it just flies off into the air and never hits anything but 1-2 enemies.
>Sometimes it just rams into walls for no reason
>The tracking needs work.
The way it works is the amount of "jumps" the beam can do is dependent upon the charges it has. At the max charge it can jump 20 times. At the last charge it has (or if it doesn't have any enemies in sight) it veers off in a random direction and hits a wall. The damage it deals per jump does not increase when charged, but the explosion does.
I'll improve the tracking--give the shooter a couple more tics to find stuff and maybe make what it shoots a hitscan like the one fired by the player.

Should I remove the last shot veering off in a random direction? The idea behind it was that it doesn't get stopped by enemies and only dies on map architecture, and also if the shot dies right when it hits something it's probably wasted since whatever it hit should've died or isn't eligible to be targeted again, but I can make it explode where it last hit rather than how it behaves now if it would be better and/or make more sense to the player.

>Plasma takes 2 cells but it feels like it's weaker than the plasma rifle's single shot
It's actually dealing 1 point of damage less than twice the damage of a plasma shot. The idea behind it was that since it's a secondary fire on the bfg weapon it shouldn't replace the plasma gun tier weapon entirely in all circumstances, but still be useful. So it's slightly less cell efficient than the plasma and also slightly inaccurate so it's not great for hitting enemies at a distance, but quicker/easier to switch to mid-fire than another weapon and has higher DPS than the plasma.
Did it go too far in nerfing it? Should I remove the cell inefficiency or the inaccuracy? Is it a problem with the sound or the laser graphic or otherwise just with the feel of it?

>I like the concept of the beam but maybe you could make it so it bounces off walls instead of breaking right then and there?

The reason I didn't give it the ability to bounce off of walls was fear of players being able to clear out entire rooms sight-unseen by shooting full charges around corners. Is the fear inaccurate/not worth gimping it over? The other thing is the hitting walls randomly was an intentional thing, so it shouldn't actually do that if has any enemies it can see or still has charge left.

>> No.2270670

>>2270621
>How does the beam work exactly? It's hard to point out what's wrong with it besides obvious glaring faults like ramming into walls

The charges equate to amount of times it can jump and the damage doesn't increase with charge, only the # of jumps, except for the explosion at the end. When it doesn't have any charge left or it doesn't find a target it veers off into a random direction, usually hitting a wall.

When the beam hits, it spawns a friendly monster that quickly looks around (has +LOOKALLAROUND and +ALWAYSFAST) for a target to shoot and fires a projectile at it. It prioritizes targets closer to it (so if you shoot it into a group it doesn't veer off and aim at a guy way far away before hitting the rest of the targets in the group) but if it can't find any close to it will shoot at anything it can see.

The beam itself is not the projectile; that's actually spawned by a script after the projectile(or, in the case of the player, the hitscan) hits something. It's a Bezier curve that curves between the last location a beam actor was spawned at (approximately where the firer is) and where the projectile hit something. In the case of the player it starts from a dummy item spawned at firing so it looks like it's originating from the gun.

It's really inconsistent for some reason.

>Should I remove the last shot veering off in a random direction?
This would be good. Having it explode at the end would also prevent any confusion as to why it hits walls.

>>2270656
>Should I remove the cell inefficiency or the inaccuracy? Is it a problem with the sound or the laser graphic or otherwise just with the feel of it?
Remove the inaccuracy or at least tone it down so it isn't a point blank weapon. It felt like it was less efficient because I wasn't thinking it was 2 cells for 2 plasma balls value and just saw it enemies at what felt like inefficiency.
The sounds are alright and the lasers look nice.

>The other thing is the hitting walls randomly was an intentional thing, so it shouldn't actually do that if has any enemies it can see or still has charge left.
This happens regardless at many times.

Since the beam apparently has a set number of jumps anyways and it takes 40 cells it doesn't seem too unreasonable for corner shots to be allowed. Would it be possible to make a wall bounce take a jump? That would balance it out a bit wouldn't it?

The only community project that this place made was 200 minutes with /vr/ which was a cool thing because there were no rules besides making things playable [Gee now i wonder why Term gets lots of Push maps, there are no rules special rules about fitting a style or whatever that limits creativity.] and using vanilla stuff.

>But sometimes it won't kill Revenants on direct hits.
>It's really inconsistent for some reason.
The reason is that only the giant ball it spawns as an explosion gets any increase in damage from the charge; so you have to aim it near but not hit them to get an explosion if you want to single shot a single target vs using it on groups. The idea was to make it work well on groups but not be able to cheese single targets. Is this too counter-intuitive? Should it work better on single targets?

>Remove the inaccuracy or at least tone it down so it isn't a point blank weapon.
I'll go ahead and make it like 1/2 or even 1/3 as inaccurate.

>This happens regardless at many times.
If there's still targets for it to hit it's either not seeing them in time or it can't actually see them from it's position. I'll give it some more tics to look around and I'll also play around with the size of the firing actor to see if it can see around stuff better.

>Since the beam apparently has a set number of jumps anyways and it takes 40 cells it doesn't seem too unreasonable for corner shots to be allowed. Would it be possible to make a wall bounce take a jump? That would balance it out a bit wouldn't it?
Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. I'll go ahead and make the first shot able to fire around walls if it sees something. It'll pretend to bounce if it doesn't. I'll probably make it just "bounce" and remove the "always dies on walls" too. The only thing is that it then doesn't have a way to deal high damage to a single target.

>Having it with at least a wall bounce or two would prevent it from being wasted because the laser chose to go after something and miss it entirely.
>It happens pretty often from what I'm testing right now.
>But maybe I have bad luck, no idea.
I'll go ahead and change the things fired by the beam to hitscans rather than projectiles so they'll be 100% accurate always.

I don't feel that's a bad thing but maybe in the Help it could specify that it's better for groups than lone targets.
However this issue mostly comes up with first targets so there's that too.
Maybe the first direct hit could hurt a bit more. Not a lot more but enough to at least make it feel more consistent.

3)No overdetailing, old Push10 [i miss that map, it was cool] had lots of cool detail but that could make people lag and if i know Terminus very well, he makes everything to be playable by any user, even those who play in >Software mode[this is why 3D Slopes are ded] so avoid making a laggy map.

and as for failed projects, the board wads were not really a /vr/-only thing, the people inside other boards were the ones that should have made maps yet they never delivered.

Doom 2 overall is harder than the original 3 doom episodes, because of its emphasis on bigger mobs, and new monsters with more hitpoints than most of doom's enemies.

i imagine it is the most well known wad having a map with >32 spawn spots. it's better justification for a change if there's an existing broken case, even if said case is one the engine can't run directly, it allows you to say "someone has broken this already, i had better be prepared" rather than "well someone might break it in future". and he probably feels he needs to justify changes when his many of his published design goals are based around conservative compatibility.

I'm a billion years late, but someone asked me
>I tried that a while ago. What do you like about it? It seemed rather lackluster to me.
@ QStyleZX

I don't honestly know why I'm addicted to it. I think it's actually because it brings so very little to the table. It feels like a simple expansion, Doom+, or something. Plus, the footstep sounds and damageable decorations really add to gameplay in some weird way, to me. Other than that, the randomization mixes it up as vanilla Doom I find just a bit boring and slow (due to years and years of playing.)

The Annihilator Replacement for the Cyberdemon is a 110% bitch on any level designed around Cyberdemons being strafed/easy to kill. I actually edited it out a few versions ago, but have been too lazy to do it again.

Brutal Doom got boring kind of fast for me, in terms of long play sessions. A lot of other gameplay mods change the dynamic way too far for me to keep interest. That said, I made some huge progress on a few Megawads with Hideous Destructor because I hate myself.

Okay, maybe if you're playing a fucking slaughtermap this will be a problem. But in maps with monster distribution like Doom 1's, or like Doom 2's for that matter, there's no real issue. The monsters are a bit more powerful, and can flush you out if you're hiding behind something, but you're more powerful, and you can attack them indirectly with the shotgun just like they can.

A recent build added the option to have inventory handled by magazines instead of by magic bag o' bullets.

What happens is, ammo is stored in individual magazines instead of as a giant pile of bullets, and the game automatically chooses the largest remaining magazine to reload for you.
Like three or four people couldn't figure this out, and one of them even asked to have it work like it does in Brutal DUUUUUM. So Marty decided to move that new feature into the options menu, and have it disabled by default.

And now that faggot's trying to complain about it some more, so I'm assuming he just wants to screw with the mod until it's Brutal Doom with a hot chick.

There's stuff that's good about Brutal Doom, and stuff that only works within a Brutal Doom style mod.

AtM uses a similar magazine-based reloading thing, except that it doesn't track half-empty magazines (instead throwing them away, much like in Diaz, and to the annoyance of anyone who understands how useful those bullets would have been).
I'm pretty damn sure they asked specifically for the magic bullet bag.

The main reason why a lot of modern Arena Shooters die quickly is because they go with shitty business models putting off players, or the devs dont make the effort to advertise and/or keep things alive through content updates.

Tribes Ascend actually could've potentially been a popular game, if it weren't for the shitty micro-transactions model, developers doing the opposite of what the community wants in gameplay mechanics, and the developers simply abandoning it over the fact that people stopped playing for not taking their shit any longer.

My point was that zdoom Maps/TCs tend to become obscure after they've had their 15 minutes of fame, since the novelty behind them wears thin.

Vanilla/Boom maps tend not to do the same if proven good enough, since traditional gameplay never gets old for most Doomers.

It's not going to be anything approaching Hideous Destructor levels of hard, and the worst of those are only going to be implemented on Purest, Darkest Hell and Lone Survivor. Mags have never ever been forced, except on LS, as Marty pointed out.

Feel free not to play it if it's not to your liking, though.

>>2272761
You're both sorta right and wrong about some things.
It always defaulted to magic bullet pool, with mags under a cvar, but the mags when first introduced only had the bulletinmag tracking and an option to have mags picked up be full. Then someone asked for AtM mags, so I added a cvar, then people continued to complain so I finally switched the default mag mode (only applicable if you turn mags on via cvars to begin with!) to be AtM mags.

This sounds like an issue with GZDoom and models. Please let us know if it happens again and if it happens for things that aren't models or outside of GZDoom. You can also turn models off or use an older version of GZDoom if the newer one is giving you issues with models.

I did fix it, the fix is in the Zombieman or Imp (I forget which) torso corpse where it checks momentum to continue spinning and otherwise drops to the floor. Term was supposed to apply the fixes to the other midair spinny corpses later on. It also wasn't my bug to fix .

While I don't disagree that there are doom/boom stuff that have become obscure over time, the examples you used aren't very good ones.

Especially in regards to Kama Sutra. Its still among the more popular megawads in the demo recording community, and is even part of the top 20 on DSDA. DWmegawad club played through it back in 2013. Some people at doomworld even brought up Kama Sutra 2 in 2014 in hopes to push Gusta into finishing it. It is downright ridiculous to claim that no one cares for it any more, just because its not brought up nearly as much as Hell Revealed, Alien Vendetta, and the Scythes.

Hi! Glad you enjoy it.

Like >>2274896 said, it's so every weapon has its own unique slot. It's just my personal autism showing through, since I like everything to be in little neat categories.
I understand this isn't a layout everyone cares for, and combined with how people have been wanting the Sabbath to be after the Exodus, I've been investigating the use of setslot or Zandro's weapon priority settings to be able to have people customize their own weapon layout.
I'll admit it's a little over my head and I'm a bit worried about if it's even possible, but ideally I'd like for everyone to be able to get their own weapon layout as they please.

There aren't really any long sprites in DemonSteele, precisely because that would be incredibly difficult to gauge. Probably the closest thing are projectiles with trails behind them--if you freeze when a Zombieman fires a laser at you, you can look at it and see it's just a series of small red balls one after the other.
The hitbox is always in the same place, though, it's the first part coming at you.

The enemy replacements work on an extremely exaggerated difficulty curve compared to the original Doom. The low-tier enemies are almost laughable, the mid-tier enemies are difficult, and the higher-tier enemies are guaranteed to irritate you. The Blackened is right square in the center, taking what I think are the core concepts of the Pain Elemental and exaggerating them--spamming you with useless mook enemies, very frustrating, generally require higher-tier weapons to kill right away.
Likewise, the Blackened spam you with unbelievably weak mook enemies (half HP, lower speed, -SOLID now, etc), but do so quickly enough that it makes them a priority. While they have less HP than Pain Elementals, they require the use of a (relatively) high-tier weapon to dispatch quickly--a single side special or forward special will do them in quickly, or failing that the Sabbath (plasma rifle replacement) will crush them as well.

Problem with this, is that most levels would have to be almost completely redone. Mancubi and Arachnotrons are too big for most levels, due to Doom 1's tendency for tight corridor-based maps.

I guess the E4 maps could work fine, though, since they generally weren't quite as tight, sans a couple levels.

I always loved the dark and crude, rustic sci-fi feeling of TNT, it's a lot like the original Doom, but it has kind of a dark spacey feeling to it that I'm enamored with. The dark night/space sky does a lot to help with this I think.

Parts of all the tech feel modern, but others feel like they're dated, except in the future, like they'd be new now, but by the time of TNT it'd be dated, worn and cheap.
I feel like the installations and bases would field a lot of simple and low cost gear, like maybe a standard patrol rifle would be a modern variant of something like the Leader T2, because of how cheap and easy it is to make.

So I'm trying to figure a solution for a small problem I've been having with the diablo style spawning; sometimes the lackeys teleport instead of the boss when maps use one time teleport lines for monsters.

so far I have two ideas;
1. Make the whole "egg" move and then go to the enemy spawn when the egg sees the player, might cause some akward "OUT OF NOWHERE" situations.
2. The lackeys dont activate any lines ever and generally don't count in the monster kill count. But then they can stay haunt in the background with their yells and stuff, unless its possible to give them a some sort of "teleport to monster" thing.
3. All lackeys no clip (horrifying)

I'm not sure which to go with.

I voice all the clown monsters myself. Will be structured as a traditional 32 map megawad, and use a modified version of Accessories to Murder.

Hey doomers, I was thinking about weapon and gameplay mods for a bit and I was wondering.

What do you look for in a gameplay mod?
Do you like it when it's drastic overhauls that change how everything plays entirely? If so, do you like it being faster or slower? Tougher? Easier? Silly?
Examples would be like Hideous Destructor, GMOTA, Demonsteele, Project MSX and whatnot.

Do you prefer remixes of vanilla weaponry?
Like Weapons of Saturn and the like.

And of course Vanilla is always good.
With vanilla weaponry have you ever done anything more to them?
Like how some mods make them have smoother animations or particle effects and whatnot but they still function like vanilla stats and whatnot.

For vanilla weaponry I use a slightly modified Eriguns with changed fist sprites to play as Doomgirl
And if I go completely vanilla sprites I use a couple of PSX sounds for the standard pistol sound and standard shotgun.

I actually feel that it doesn't have too much of a use once you grab a Chaingun while having the SSG.

It has more accuracy and.. DPS I guess.
There's almost always a whole lot of extra bullets too so even if it's not as efficient as a shotgun it tends to be pretty loaded.

I also don't really like how some mods address this by toning the SSG down to having the same efficiency as the standard SG.

Zeke will be probably the only shotgun (for right now), so it'll start with normal buckshot and then upgrade to eventually be able to use all four types.

I just almost hit character limit with some explanations and then my browser backtracked and forgot it. Fucks sake.

Basically, everyone's different. If you are making it for others and not yourself, either exploit a niche, or do something better than others have. Compatibility and longevity are king, with balance and pacing coming in second.

Personally, I like mods that just improve/expand the base game without fucking up the monster/weapon progression. Those often sit in my autoload when I play new maps. Little immersion things, like footsteps, breakable decorations, lighting, better sounds etc - those go a long way too.

Stuff that's too drastic, weird, or wacky - I don't play for more than a romp or two. There's nothing wrong with replacing Monsters too, if it's done right. The issue is, there are a ton of really /good/ weapon mods, but highly compatible mix-and-match monster mods are kinda far and between.

The game is ok.

It has some really cool things going for it, but it's all brought down by an overhanging sense of mediocrity.

I had fun with it, I've played it through, multiple times, but there's definitively standout flaws which bring down the overall quality of the game. I kind of wish it would get a sequel which would remedy all of it's flaws.

I like the atmosphere, the guns, scavenging for items, the inventory and crafting system, I honestly liked the car part, something fiercely enjoyable about ramming your armored wasteland musclecar at full speed into an enemy Mad Max Mobile to punt them at maximum velocity into a cliff wall and behold the big fireball.

I liked the AK-74, I liked the modified flaregun pistol (I would load nothing but Fat Boy ammo which would actually make it a rather solid performer at close quarters, just sell the regular ammo and buy as many Fat Boy loads as you can), as well as the self-loading shotgun (I would load basically nothing but Pop Rockets in this, turning it into a small, rapid, grenade-launcher, practically never using buckshot, stock up on C4 and then convert as many shotgun shells as you can.

If they have it for cheap, and with the added DLC items, you can have kind of a fun time, I'd recommend at least giving it a go.

As for flaws, the graphics, while incredibly beautiful, do have bugs, especially on PC, also, there's a fundamental lack of any substantial boss battles, the final battle WILL disappoint you.
