DoomRL > Discussion
First time posting - I really hate to be that guy...
Captain Mac:
Hey there, people.
So let me break it down - I've had DoomRL for about 3 months now, and I'm playing the shit out of it. I still suck at it, though; only angel I've beat so far has been AoOC, and I've only beaten JC once, on HNTR. I have way too much fun with shotguns, and I'm kind of obsessive about killing every dude - I think that might be why, but who knows?
Anyway, that completionism I mentioned is a curse when I find stuff like the Dragonslayer. Cue exasperated groans, I know, I'm sorry. It just spawned again for me, in level 71 of Ao100 (which is a new personal best, but that's another story), and I've cracked. I can't leave the floor without it. I've tried to get this thing in the past, to no avail, and I know it has something to do with Berserk (maybe?), and I know it's super duper simple and I feel like an idiot but I can't leave this floor until I know for sure if I can get it. Still trying in real time, by the way.
Side note: this is NOT a request for someone to post the secret on the forums. I understand the history of the DS and I'm not asking anyone to break it. This is mostly here to let me vent. I'll let you know if I figure it out.
UPDATE: I couldn't deal. I didn't actually want to use the DS that badly, so I just moved on - I'll wield it someday, I suppose. Mortem to come soonish, I reckon.
LuckyDee:
Yeah, this game is a surefire cure for OCD and sore losership. Welcome :)
On a sidenote: how on earth have you been able to complete AoOC before something easy like AoSh, AoMC, AoMr, AoLT, Ao100 or even AoB? Pretty impressive if you ask me - I still have to complete my first AoCn ever, let alone try AoOC...
Captain Mac:
I actually found AoOC easier than the other ones. Having an assault shotty and minigun from the get-go really makes things easier for me; I cornerfire like a freak. AoS was easy when I started, but that was in Month 1, so the OCD kicked in when I went down to the Wall and realized I couldn't get the backpack. I actually quit on the spot...not my proudest moment, that. XD
Also, have a mortem!

-- General ---------------------------------------------------
393 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
346 of those were killed.
1 of those was killed by something unknown.
3 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
And 37 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.
6 souls destroyed the Mastermind...
1 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
4 killed the bitch and survived.
1 showed that it can outsmart Hell itself.
--------------------------------------------------------------
After I got momentum (think it was around level 17, when I got Fireangel), the run became pretty simple; it was kind of a joke after I got my nanoshotty, though. Those things are stupid powerful...
ZicherCZ:
Heh, I share your kill-em-all obsession (and I died countless times because of it) :). And DS still eludes me as well. Whatever, I can live without it :).
I also find it interesting that AoOC is the first challenge you won. LD already said it all, I would just repeat his words. Then again, due to the extra equipment, you do get a head start, so it is kinda easy as well.
And now an Ao100 win? Where did you leave the two monsters behind? Anyway, you have a future, Sir :).
Oh, one more thing - next time please enclose the mortem dump in "[ mortem]" - "[ /mortem]" tags (without the spaces). It's much more readable that way.
thelaptop:
Yet another case of AoOC ain't worth the difficulty we gave it.
It is, obviously, rebalanced slightly in repo. Heheh.
