Discussion / Removing movement delay?
« on: April 06, 2012, 21:38 »
Is there any way to remove the approximate one second delay before moving when holding a movement key?

Discussion / Most versatile weaponry and trait build?
« on: July 10, 2010, 17:20 »
I was wondering what weapon classes were considered to be the "best" when it comes to versatility and what traits help further compliment that versatility? I was thinking something like EE -> EE -> Int -> Int -> SoaB -> SoaB etc. combined with automatics like the Chaingun and Plasma Rifle, carrying cells for your plasma rifle also ensures that if you run into a BFG9K or BFG10K you'll have plenty of ammo for it to make the rest of the game smooth sailing. I played awhile back before the most recent update, back around 0.9.9 or before that I believe. So I just started playing again but I'm pretty bad... I try to get a build going like the one mentioned above but can never manage to find the Chaingun in Hell's Arena (after beating round 1) before getting wrecked by the 2nd wave's Cacodemons. However, when I finally get lucky enough to have the Chaingun spawn right next to me, shit gets really crazy really fast. Tips are extremely welcome, thanks in advance.

I had approximately 10 ~ 12 large medkits until near the end when I had to deal with not one, not two, not three, but four Archviles on the same map.

Discussion / Can I get some pointers for shotguns?
« on: July 25, 2009, 02:12 »
I'd like to try a shotgun build, which means I cannot use a chaingun whatsoever like I always do. Here's the traits I've been using: Rel->Rel->SM->HR->HR->HR->TaN->TaN->TaN->Iro->Iro->Iro. It seems like the best possible setup for shotguns unless SoaB gives bonus damage to every BB from the shotgun's spread (it doesn't seem like that's the case though).
Also, what's the easiest and earliest way to get a double shotgun?

It blends in with Pistols way too easily. How about orange?

Pre-0.9.9 / [M|99%|YAVP] Introduction as well as my first victory!
« on: July 24, 2009, 06:27 »
-- Intro ---------------------------------------------------
Hello everyone, I'm new here, I started playing DoomRL about a week ago and this is my first time reaching Cybie as well as my first time killing him. It's also my first time ever beating a roguelike.
-- Game summary ----------------------------------------
I used the chaingun for the majority of this run. I found the double shotgun on level 3 or 4 which I had in my readied slot for quite a while which helped with pesky Demons and Pain Elementals that got too close, I could just switch to my double shotgun and blast them at point blank range for a one-hit-kill. When I acquired a nice amount of rockets (2 or 3 stacks) I started using those to kill the bigger baddies instead of the chaingun (although the chaingun was dropping Barons in 3 shots (rarely 4)). I carried around a plasma rifle and 2 or 3 stacks of power cells for quite a while, but I never felt that it was necessary to use it. I ditched the plasma rifle when I stumbled upon the BFG. I fired 2 or 3 shots from the BFG due to panic before reaching Cybie's arena because I've been really wanting to beat this game and there's no way I was going to die to some random Arachnotron or Baron again. I never used any thermonuclear bombs or any kind of phase devices. I made it a habit to carry around an extra set of red armor, just in case my current one was destroyed, equipping the more damaged set of red armor and repairing it with an armor shard whenever I came across one. My heart was racing on the last 3 levels because I knew that this run had the potential to be completed. I entered Cybie's arena and I had immediately heard him moving about, I knew he was nearby, I took several steps to the right to get a better view since a pillar was in my way (I was hoping to get the drop on him with level 2 Cat Eye) and I met him right around the corner of that very pillar, which scared me a lot because I wasn't sure if I had enough power cells to BFG him to death and if he was up close I couldn't rocket him without it being detrimental to my health and armor. If I recall correctly... he dropped in two BFG shots and one rocket, leaving me victorious.
Overall, I'm proud of myself for completing this game in under a week with my minimal amount of knowledge for it. I am naturally very bad at turn based strategy games due to my aggressiveness and lack of patience (I'm an FPS kind of guy -- Quake speedrunner and Quake 3 Arena CPMA veteran). I dislike the fact that I got 99% kills instead of 100%. I always completely clear out a level before proceeding to the next, making sure not to miss out on any experience. I swear I killed them all because I always wait for the level title to turn blue, but hey... apparently I missed a few.
-- Questions ----------------------------------------------
Can anyone give me some pointers? Not on any particular subject, but anything that you think would be helpful to someone who's completed the game for their first time. What should I do next? Any specific challenges? Or simply try the next difficulty?
How do I change my tactics from cautious to aggressive and coward? I see this being mentioned on the wiki a lot but I can only switch from cautious to running (and then, of course, tired).
Most importantly though... I would like to beat the game as a shotgun specialist, without relying on the chaingun for the whole game like I always do. My talent build would be something like this: Rel->Rel->SM->HR->HR->HR->TaN->TaN->TaN->Iro->Iro->Iro. Any input on behalf of this subject from people with experience on shotguns would be fantastic.
One last thing... I always have trouble with Hell's Arena. I have not once successfully gone through Hell's Arena, I always seem to die on the second wave.
-- Outro ---------------------------------------------------
If the developer(s) is/are reading this, I'd like to say that this game is incredible and you've done an awesome job on it. It stays true to the Doom series and it's very fun to play. I have more fun playing DoomRL than I do playing the putrid garbage that companies like EA barfs all over store shelves every other weekend. I'm looking very forward to any updates you have for this game and I'm definitely going to try the harder difficulties and challenges. id Software would be proud.
