Requests For Features / Balance: Megasphere is way too rare
« on: August 20, 2008, 06:59 »
That rhymes, BTW =)

Seriously, the megasphere is too rare for what it only does; In fact it's just a combination between a supercharge and a buffed up armor shard. That's all! And you only find one of them in a game, if you're very lucky maybe two. If it would be a combination between a supercharge that sets your health to 300%, an armor shard with 2 instant durability mods, a  computer map that displays every level you enter from then and a backpack, OK. But geez, let's not make it that powerful, just make it spawn a little more. Maybe like (2/5 * The chance of a supercharge).

OH MY HOLY GODNESS... I finally did it!
Wow I really thought I still was an ITYTD N00b but appearantly I am NOT. =D
I was hard though, but I fought myself through it. There was one point where I was almost dead, where I had like 10% HP and I was facing a revenant. Luckily, just before he was about to fire, a lost soul flew before me, so the rocket hit the lost soul and I wasn't hit. I think I never had that much luck before!
That save isn't a scum, only an interval between yesterday evening and today =)

Oh and one more thing: Am I now... officially a member of the elite players? VO_O

It may seem nothing special to you elite guys, but for me it's already quite an achievement! =)
Normally I always end up around Dlvl 5. This time I did it amazingly good!
Once I met my first former commando and got a hold of a plasma rifle, the fun started (I never knew that UV even COULD be fun)!
The arachno's that came a little later on in the game took care of all my ammo needs.

A *big* mistake I made was that I had a small injury and wanted to take a small medpack, I accidently took a large one >=(

Finally, on level 14 I got spawned at that stairs at the bottom right corner, and my intuition was already saying something was wrong about this level. I was just too quiet...
Though I had the chance to leave, I didn't wanna be a coward and explored the level. I went to the Northmost room. I still didn't face any enemies yet!
And all of the sudden, surprise surprise, the wall South of me exploded and I saw a bunch of Revenants, in the company of 2 Arch-Viles. Yep, I knew I was dead =)

Anyway, I really enjoyed this run! Please comment! (or give me some hints for future UV/N! games)

After normal screenshot and BB screenshot, there should also be a super-detail screenshot. This does not only include a screen, but also information on the player and his situation. Practically like a post-mortem, but in a not-dead situation. Good idea?

Discussion / Pistols: Best weapon ever?
« on: August 15, 2008, 05:59 »
For example: AoMr is much easier than a normal game. Sometimes I even decide to start normal game, and use nothing but pistols and choose SoG+Dualgunner because with the right traits, pistols can be the best primary weapon there is.

Why? Well, with a combat shottie you have to shoot about five times to kill a cacodemon (plus pumping shells and after that, loose a lot of time reloading the whole thing). Double shotgun deals very good damage but the reload time and range is shameful. It also eats shells like crazy. Chaingun can't hit the broad side of a barn. Rocket launcher is good due to it's kickback, but you only find/use it in later levels and you could get hit by its splash damage. Plasma rifle, heh, I don't even bother wasting a whole inventory slot for such a piece of trash; bad accuracy and it EATS those rather rare cells and it really misses that kickback. BFG is only useful in very crappy situations and to kill Cybie.

Now, what's left? Ah-hah! The pistol! Good accuracy, short reload time, with the right traits you can dual wield them and deal very good damage (You kill a Cacodemon in 3 dual shots), it uses its ammo right so no waste of bullets etc etc...

So people, look no further. The best weapon in the whole game is already included in your starting equipment!

At the other hand, I can call DoomRL unique AGAIN. Because in other games the pistol is the most useless weapon there is.


... And now I'm gonna play an AoMr game.

Well, this was a really crappy run. Especially my accuracy was shameful, I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn! I missed like 30% of all rockets I shot. And if you ask me to shoot at the ground with my chaingun, I would probably have missed it. Yes, even with that accuracy mod >=[

I also stepped into 'hidden' lavapools A LOT (There were items lying on them).

There were almost no special levels, hells arena and chained court were skipped by the game so I missed much, much useful stuff.

Further on I also learned that the player, together with lots of imps and HK's at the one side of a lava river, and 2 Arch-Viles at the other side is @$$. =)
Luckily I had a Holy Homing Phase Device.

And I also did some painful things simply because I wasn't concentrated. Like for example I shot a revenant in a tight corridor, thinking I was holding my combat shottie but it turned out to be... my rocket launcher.
I assume you guys know the feeling. =D

Umm... what did I also encounter?... Oh wait, I know. In the last Phobos Base level I was spawned in an arena between 2 pain elementals, 1 caco, 1 BoH, some rather annoying enemies like former humans and imps, and last but not least... An Arch-Vile! Ta-daaa! *Puts tongue in cheeks* Damn I hate those little...


And finally at the end I killed Cyberdemon. Yes, even after all that trouble I could accomplish it! I was really like "WOO! TAKE THAT, YOU LITTLE @#$+§&!!!!" (Well OK, not literally, but sure mentally)

And to the Random Number God: You're owned, buddy!!!

Discussion / The time a human needs to destroy Hell...
« on: July 25, 2008, 16:36 »
OK, so let's say that an average DoomRL YAVP costs 80000 turns.
1 second = 10 turns, so you need 8000 seconds.
Which is 8000/60 = 133 minutes (rounded)
Which is 133/60 = 2.2 hours (rounded)

So what did we just learn? It only takes a stupid human 2 hours and 12 minutes to destroy Hell, the core of all evil!

2 HOURS AND 12 MINUTES.

Really, WTF.

54
The stacks for the plasma cells is at the moment 50/slot. But the fact that both plasma rifle and BFG use the ammo, the ammo seems to drain with the minute when you use the plasma rifle and that takes a tasty bite out of the game's balance. Making the cells require less inventory space would already do a lot. What about 75/stack or something around that?

Requests For Features / About Arch-Viles
« on: July 09, 2008, 13:06 »
They should really be made a little weaker. I noticed that they can resurrect any enemy every turn! So I suggest the following: The stronger the resurrected enemies, the longer it takes to resurrect them.

I must notice that they are really pissing me off, as they always spoil the cake when I'm about to plant the flag of victory. My death reason in 75% of all cases a Vile. And yes I know, they actually ARE meant to be powerful, but now they're really TOO powerful. Please change that... thanks =)

-- General ---------------------------------------------------

 Before him 71 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 56 of those were killed.
 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? 13 souls claim to have killed him...
 1 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 10 killed the bastard and survived.
 2 showed that it can outsmart hell itself.

Yeah, yeah, I used a bomb, I know... but I simply didn't want to take any risk =) And I don't see myself battling Cybie with only pistols =)

Pretty easy run, sometimes I even think AoMr on M is easier than a normal game on E, seriously! It went very fast, I was in Phobos Hell before I knew it.

It was especially very fun! The feeling of slaughtering BoH's with only a dual pistol clip (so 2 clips) was awesome!

On level 7 I encountered a big combination of Caco's, Mancubi and... 2 Archviles XD... I thought of using my homing phase device but I felt too heroic for that. I noticed that 2 maximally modded pistols and SoG*3 actually makes you powerful =)


Very fun game. I wish I could do it again =D

Discussion / They tried to flank me!

I think it's commonly known that DoomRL has a pretty stupid AI code (Sorry Kornel) but definately not this time! I was just trying to own 4 Arachnotrons my my RL from pretty far, I had Intuition*3 so I could constantly "track" their position. The situation was sorta like this (hand made screenshot):

Code: [Select]
############################
#...............#..........#
#...............#..........#
#...........................
#.............-.-.-.-A.A....
#......@..-.-.-.-.-.-.-.A.A.
######/##################...
#..........................#
#..........................#
#..........................#

...Until suddenly 1 of them stayed in position, probably for surpressive fire, and the rest went like this:

Code: [Select]
############################
#...............#..........#
#...............#..........#
#...WTF?....................
#.....\......*.*.*.*.A......
#......@.*.*................
######/##################...
#.................A.A..A...#
#..........................#
#..........................#

Then those frickin' smart arachno's reached that door, and of course I still had the rocket launcher in my hands and I had no plasma rifle yet so as they were only 2 spaces away the rocket launcher would be a stupid idea... yep, now they really got me pinned...

Code: [Select]
############################
#...............#..........#
#...............#..........#
#...-_-.....................
#.....\......*.*.*.*.A......
#......@.*.*................
######/##################...
#....AA....................#
#......A...................#
#..........................#

You could almost see them thinking "Checkmate, buddy!" but then I finally managed to kill the surpressing arachno while I was taking heavy fire from the rest and then, while keeping them away with my shotty, I ran East for some cover and to clear some space for my RL.

Code: [Select]
############################
#...............#..........#
#...............#..........#
#...........................
#....................%......
#.....%%-.-.@...............
###...%..################...
#..........................#
#..........................#
#..........................#

Their plan had failed. But I must confess they almost got me!

Yeah, DoomRL will always keep surprising me =)

Pre-0.9.9 / What does this mean?
« on: July 05, 2008, 15:07 »
What does this mean (you can find it in the "Statistics" part of a Mortem)?

ToHit +#  ToDmg Ranged +#  ToDmg Melee +#

... and why is it in most cases respectively 0,0,0 or 4,3,3?
