DRL > Pre-0.9.9

[H|96%|11] My first time with DoomRL (2 hours). 'Very' sudden death..

(1/3) > >>

Daqin:
After many recommendations I've tried DoomRL. I find it very challenging, and it seems really polished/loved up.
I am proud/happy I made it quite good, for the first-time-playing.. :>. However I experienced VERY unexpected and sudden death :/ .. There was closed door and barrel next to it. Didn't want to blow it because level was almost done and I didn't want to lose any possible items behind the door. When I opened it there was former commando inside the room.. and another former commando appeared behind me  (ack..!) in that turn from area I already cleared out.. that's very strange.. I made one step back to get out of sight of the one inside the room.. and that was my last move: from 100% health to 0% in one turn: You open the door.
 The former commando fires! You are hit! You are hit! The barrel explodes!
 The barrel explodes! The former commando dies. Boom! You are hit! You
 are hit! You are hit! The former commando fires! You are hit! You are hit!
 You are hit! You are hit! You die!...

Comments welcome.. ;)

Well it was your first time. Everyone's having problems then, it's perfectly natural. The next time will be much more enjoyable, I'm sure.

Sounds like that one commando stepped in a teleporter and warped straight behind you. And well, yeah, you could've easily died from two plasma bursts and a couple of exploding barrels, with those stats.

Thanks for feedback. "Those stats" ? Do you mean health (no Ironman) ?Or mean something else. Anyway, that's the death I like ! Hah! :)

Silhar:
For a first time - awesome job !
Yeah, being attacked like that is a bad luck. Remember - when you see a barrel and you didn't get a message like "You sense something very valuable here !", blow it. You'll surely kill (or at least wound) a few enemies, and maybe cause a chain reaction. It's better to lose some good items and don't risk being killed by barrels and a former sarge hiding somewhere in the shadows, than have good stuff and die few seconds later...

Yeah, that makes sense. But I think blowing them too much can possibly destroy too many useful items. Good 'show', though.. heh. As, allways, balance is just the thing that fits everyewhere.
