This was my first game of the new Beta 0.9.8.10 RC1. I played Angel of Marksmanship because that is the game type I am best at and Medium so I could play around a little without worrying too much.
First, the mortem and then some comments...

4 of those were killed by something unknown.
And 2 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.
Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
Is he immortal? 9 souls claim to have killed him...
7 killed the bastard and survived.
2 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

Ha ha! This game was fun! I loved having the extra inventory slots, but it made me too greedy. I ended up carrying piles of Large Medi-Packs and didn't have enough ammo. I still carried quite a bit of ammo, of course (perhaps 800 rounds) but I did not run into very many 100mm users in the last half of my descent.
I actually ran out of ammo fighting the Cyberdemon. If you read the last few messages in the mortem you will see that I had to finish of CD by punching him. :D
It's a good thing I found the Berserk globe or I never would have damaged him enough with my pistol to finish him off.
Anyway, the new damage from acid and lava was terrifying! It will make me think twice about finishing the Chained Court. And the Lava Pit was absolutely brutal! I started with one Enviropack, but that didn't even get me 1/4 of the way across. I was determined to see what was on the other side, so I toughed it out (using up about 5 Large Medi-Packs in the process). I had a Homing Phase device as a last resort if I ever got to the point of having to give up. Otherwise I probably would not have attempted it. Most of the time, though, I will be avoiding that level.
I liked being able to do the Halls of Carnage in an AoM game. I attempted the Wall, because I had read that everything has damage points now, but I am guessing you still cannot shoot through walls. I unloaded about 100 rounds into one wall space and it never was destroyed.
I also tried the Vaults, but had a similar problem. I used a phase device to get inside one of the vaults and cleared it, and then used a homing device to get back out.
I liked only having to put one point into Dualgunner. Since it is only for a specific purpose I think it is a good idea to reduce it to one level. That frees up points for different traits and makes trait choice more interesting (more options is always better and adds variety).
I also really liked the info in the inventory screen. All the inventory improvements are terrific!
