--------------------------------------------------------------

Okay, maybe I play this game too much, but after 100+ games I managed to get my third win, but this time with no cateye.  The max TaN and ironman meant that arachnatrons did like 1 damage per hit, and cyber demon rockets did about 20% damage per hit with red armor.  I think TaN should be nerfed to lvl 2 max (it's extremely powerful vs multi-shotting enemies).

I have to mention that this was the most intense game I had, with no cateye I had to use other tricks to get a win (always move with coward, always switch to aggressive when shooting, when walking in open space have a rocketlauncher ready...).  But now atleast I know it is doable  (and fastload doubleshotgun must be the best gun in the game other than plasma for BFG)

Wow... no cateye. Very well done. I'm still trying to figure out how to get past LV 14...

Fastload dbl shotgun? Sweet find, I wish I had luck like that.

I have to say, I played 100+ games (it stops keeping track after 60 death), and only have seen TWO (maybe other times when it got destryoed before I found it) fastload dbl shotgun.

I have to mention fastload rocketlauncher is on my list of faves too.


Anyways, I found that tactics play a huge role if you make good use of it.  I'm going to try to finish the game without any talents (i'll stuff em all in son of a gun and brute... not like I'll melee or use pistol anyhow).
