Discussion / The More You Know...

According to the latest version notes:

[mod] -- TR#---: Difficult medals give you easier medals of the same series if you haven't already received them (game_hunter)

I beat Strongman Platinum yesterday and realized today I did not receive the Strongman Gold badge. Not a big deal, but should be fixed for the next version if someone else can confirm. Thanks.

Discussion / Assembly Combination Spreadsheet:
« on: January 12, 2012, 17:09 »
Having been away from the game a bit, I've returned and found myself having just as much fun as ever. In many runs, I've been overwhelmed by the different assembly combinations that I could piece together with the mods that I have in my bags, and I decided I would make keeping track of them easier on myself.

I created this spreadsheet that will alert you to the different assemblies that you can create given the combination of mods in your inventory. Simply plug what you're carrying into the right-side table, and it will do the rest. I've left some of the values populated just so that you can get an idea.

I'm aware that there were some changes to assemblies with 0.9.9.5, but I haven't yet found any difference in the actual combinations required. However, I've started fresh with this version with a new player file, so it may be that I just haven't come upon them yet. In any case, I plan to update this spreadsheet with any misinformation that needs to be fixed and with any other suggestions or requests that I receive. At the very least, I hope someone else finds this useful.

By request, when you first run the spreadsheet, it will be blank.

Depending upon your security settings, you will most likely be required to click the big "Enable Content" button at the top of the sheet to do the following step.

Go to the Options sheet and either click the Spoiler Mode button to populate all of the assemblies currently in game, or click the buttons for the individual assemblies that you have discovered thus far.

This will allow you to keep an eye out for assemblies that you already know without cluing you in on ones you haven't yet unlocked.

Thanks for reading.

Updates:
1.0.0 -- Original version.
1.0.1 -- Corrected terminology per thelaptop, thanks.
2.0.0 -- Major overhaul allowing both spoiler-happy and spoiler-averse marines to make use of the spreadsheet.

*New naming/versioning system. Names now reflect the latest version of the game they support and then a single-digit version number reflecting any changes I've had to make.

0.9.9.6 Beta 1 - v1 -- Supports both the latest beta and the most recent public version.

Bug Reports / Extra Compet-n Platinum Cross Conditions?
« on: January 06, 2010, 09:45 »
Greetings!

It's very possible that this isn't a bug, in which case a moderator can happily lock the thread. However, I recently completed an Angel of Haste game in under eight minutes and was wondering why the badge wasn't rewarded. The game had the following extra conditions:

- It was on HNTR.
- Again, it was an Angel of Haste game.
- I nuked the Cyberdemon with the Trigun's Angel Arm ability to defeat him.

Mortem is attached. Any ideas why this didn't qualify?

Thanks for any reply. Wish there was a "possible bug[/b]" forum so I didn't have to post here on something that's most likely intended and that I'm simply overlooking =P

I've been trying off and on for weeks to get this one, and it finally came together. I originally aimed at getting the Platinum Pacifist badge, but decided I didn't ever want to have to do it twice on Nightmare!, so I decided to learn how to do it without Hellrunner =P

Onyx Armor helped a lot, I found that around level 2 or 3 of Hell. I'm glad I went for Fireangel as soon as possible, I laughed at Viles, Revenants, and Mancubi. A few lucky Supercharges along the way and a Megasphere once helped a ton.

The game time is off because I was on level 7 of Hell when our office holiday party started and I had to walk away for a bit. Came back to finish it after the party.

Oh, I needed 4 Viles to rank up, and made sure to stand next to a few of them long enough on this run to get them toasted. I'm an Arch Vile now =)

Century Lounge / [M/Ao100/100%/YAAM] in 0.9.9.1 BETA 1
« on: December 08, 2009, 18:49 »
I'll say right off that I was originally going to edit this mortem a bit to block out things from the beta so that it isn't too spoiler heavy, but I see a lot of the more mechanical stuff has already been released by others in theirs. I will, however, keep the wraps on one new feature... =)

Anyway, I finally beat the damn Ao100 challenge! I had a few previous attempts where I died on the 90th levels, but persistence paid off. I originally had a plasma rifle with two Accuracy mods and two Damage mods on it, but I found two Firestorm modifications one after another and had to then wait nine levels before another plasma rifle came around for me to mod. From there, I dropped both Firestorm mods and two Accuracy mods on, and nothing stood a chance. It seemed like I was playing Angel of Max Carnage.

I didn't hit too many unique exotic items, but the ones I did sure came in handy. The Onyx Armor is a favorite, even more now that it can be modified. I found a Railgun on level 90 (my second ever, the other being in an Ao100 that ended on level 32), and it replaced the rocket launcer I'd kept on hand until then for knocking out pesky walls.

All in all, I love the new features, and felt it made things a lot more interesting trying to make it through all 100 levels. Now onward to two more gold medals or another few dozen Viles so I can rank up again =)

Greetings.

I finally have a good run going on Angel of Max Carnage under Ultraviolence difficulty, I'm currently in Hell's Armory. I'm character level 7 with Ammochain, so that tells you my build thus far. I've had two shots fired at me by revenants so far in this dungeon level, and they've both reported hits in the chat log and knocked me backwards, but I've taken no damage either time, and my armor hasn't degraded any from the hits. All other enemies in the stage seem to be working properly.

I'm wearing a red armor with 64% durability and I was at 100% health both of the times I've been 'hit' by the revenants, if that makes any difference. I'm using a modified plasma rifle with two agility mods slapped on. Steel boots on my feet, no mods. That's everything I can think to include.

If there's anything further I can offer, please do ask. I'll repost if I find this behavior repeated on other levels, but these are the first revenants I've run across so far.

Discussion / Baron of Hell + Cybernetic Armor = ARGH
« on: November 20, 2009, 12:54 »
The bastard just took about two dozen shotgun blasts from around a corner to kill, and I felt like someone else needed to hear about it. My reward was a Cybernetic Armor with 0% durability left on it. At least he wasn't packing a large medkit as well.

Thanks for reading =P

Bug Reports / Phase Devices Not Used Up On Angel of Impatience:
« on: October 30, 2009, 14:45 »
It seems that while playing Angel of Impatience, normal phase devices can be activated immediately (as intended, they aren't picked up) but that they aren't consumed in the process. Playing version 0.9.9. Thank you.

Greetings! Long time player, first time poster, heh.

I just finished an Angel of Pacifism game where I was lucky enough to find an Invulnerability Globe next to the stairs on Phobos Hell 9. I grabbed it, dropped down the steps, and nuked the Cybie. This revealed the steps to John Carmack (a first for me), and then I was stuck with no way to beat him. But that's fine, I was just happy to see him finally =)

The possible bug comes in the fact that even though I beat the Cybie, I wasn't awarded with the gold badge for completing Angel of Pacifism. If this is intended (because I attempted a full win rather than settling for a standard), then this can be locked/deleted/ignored. If, however, I should've been given credit, then it seems this would be a valid bug.

Thanks for any reply or consideration that can be given to this. It's really a non-issue, as I have a ton of fun playing Pacifist, and I'm sure I'll wind up doing it again just for fun. Great game, keep it up!

(Mortem attached, but not really necessary, I don't think.)
