 Before him 29 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:

With an inventory like that I'd have to be the absolute worst player on earth to be unable to take the Cyberdemon down! It probably helped at least a little bit that there was an invulnerability two tiles away from the stairs heading into the arena ^_^

Requests For Features / Episode 1 ASCII Maps
« on: December 30, 2005, 02:56 »
So I went ahead and drew renditions of E1M1 (Hangar) and E1M8 (Phobos Anamoly), given the 20x80 constraints. I think they turned out fairly well, but the star for E1M8 was a little tricky, and could probably be improved. Nevertheless, here are the links to the two of them:

E1M1_ASCII.txt

E1M8_ASCII.txt

I've only done these two so far to get feedback from everybody else as to how this should proceed. These are the smallest maps of the episode and both are relatively straightforward. I'd also like input as to how the bigger, more complicated maps (E1M2, E1M4, E1M5, E1M7) should be tackled:  trying to cram them down into 20x80 and probably cutting some sections; or creating separate sub-maps that would link in sequence, with the "exit" of one map being the location of a keycard or something, and continuing on the other side of the corresponding door with the next map until the exit is reached; or something else entirely.

Just for reference, the "<" on the map is the start point, and the ">" is obviously the exit. I haven't added barrels, enemies, or anything of the sort because I don't know if they would be randomly generated like the rest of DoomRL, or if they would be set monsters like the ones in the special levels.

Pre-0.9.9 / Pistol-Crazy Challenge
« on: December 28, 2005, 03:15 »
I wanted to do something less-crazy than a melee challenge but in the same spirit, so I decided to see how far I could get using just a pistol and maxing Son of a Gun before going onto other traits. Armor and other goodies are fair game; you just can't pick up or use any weapons but your trusty 10mm or variations thereof. This is what my first run got me:

Yes, I managed to kill hell knights with a pistol. They only take about a dozen shots each with maxed SoaG. It helped that I found a Blue Armor on level 3. I had also seen an advanced pistol on level 6, but a stupid shotgunner had to blow up a barrel adjacent to it. I'll give it another go in the near future and see if I can get any farther.

I got THIS close to taking him down. I got in 3 full BFG blasts before I was forced to switch to the double shotgun. He was in the "mortally wounded" state and if I had switched to the chaingun instead of the double shotgun I might have been able to do it because the reloads were what got me, I think.

I also had the (ill) luck of encountering only 3 commanders, so my plasma cells had been skimpy throughout, and I used all my rockets to kill bigger baddies, and I ended up having to double shotgun some of them as well. I ran into captains as far down as level 18, which explains the glut of 10mm ammo. I also ran into very little good armor; no red and two blue suits was the extent of my protection, not counting the greens.

Oh well. I'll take him down sooner or later.
