-- General ---------------------------------------------------
Before him 83 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
75 of those were killed.
1 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
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? 5 souls claim to have killed him...
5 killed the bastard and survived.

So I've struggled mightily and managed to make it to floor 25 with the BFG, ample cells, and intuition to boot. With the old BFG behavior - guaranteed win. Except to my horror, the BFG is just a bigger rocket launcher now...what the heck? If I had known the BFG no longer hit where you aimed, I would have managed my experience points more carefully to come to cybie with 200% health, not 84%.
One of the unique useful features that set the BFG apart from other weapons - gone. I probably wouldn't have risked the Halls of Carnage if I had known the BFG couldn't be aimed this way anymore. On AoMs/AoP, unlike other modes, the Halls of Carnage are a risk without envirosuits. This missing BFG ability also made it very useful against crowds, since you could aim anywhere, such as in the middle of a monster pack even if there was no monster there, rather than having to rely on a wall, or hoping to succeed on your accuracy roll while aiming at a creature which might not actually be in the ideal spot to begin with.
