Bug Reports / Re: More info on the two-player glitch, and a possible cause.
« on: May 08, 2007, 19:00 »
You might be onto something. I didn't try to keep my old player data and I have yet to have this problem.

Most of those aren't very doom-ish and they'd throw off the balance.

I thought the BFG doesn't hurt you if you get caught in the blast. I do that just about everytime I fire it now that I think about it.

I'd just stick with those armor piercing frangible rounds they invented recently (I forget what their actual name is). The way the bullets are designed they get somehow pierce through armor like your typical AP bullets but burst inside the target doing more damage.

Pre-0.9.9 / Re: [E|85%] My first run through the game

It's generally not a good idea to hit switches that late in the game unless you are really, really desperate or you have Intuition.

Whoops. Well he's dead and that's all I care about. And I already know about the spoily stuff. Just haven't been lucky enough so far.

I came in to the arena with 2 fully loaded BFG's, 6 overcharged plasma rifles, 2 large health kits, and 100% red armor. Poor fellow didn't have a chance.
Also, the city of skulls is so easy with a shotgun build.

AliensRL / Re: Ideas!
« on: April 03, 2007, 15:51 »
There was a very impressive real world example of advanced combat armor on Future Weapons. It was a suit of armor made from individual ceramic metal alloy "scales" lined up in such a way to disperse the impact energy. It easily took multiple hits from a variety of weapons but the most impressive thing was when they detonated a grenade under it at point blank range. None of the shrapnel penetrated what so ever and, while the armor looked beat up and ugly, was still somewhat intact.
One thing: are you going to put in that man portable plasma cannon they mention in the colonial marine technology manual? They make it sound like a single rate of fire weapon with massive armor penetration. Sort of like a railgun I guess.

In any case the aliens in the movies just ripped or bashed or melted through all the sheet metal and welded doors in the movie. It just slowed them down.
Maybe you could get a welder item that works sort of like doorspikes in traditional roguelikes.

AliensRL / Re: AliensRL 7DRL PLUS released!
« on: March 23, 2007, 10:45 »
First off, this game is great, especially for a 7DRL. It captured the mood of the alien films and the alien breed games wonderfully. I really hope you keep working on this one.
Also, I noticed in a few of the other threads they were talking about putting a motion detector. I really hope you do this because it was one of the main things that upped the tension in the movies. In the game just imagine skulking down a cooridor, scared to death because your ammo and health are low, when that accursed sound starts in: Beep-eep... Beep-eep... You check your motion detector and shows multiple contacts in multiple directions. Oh crap...
My suggestion (which probably just echoes someone else's but still) is to only have the motion detector show the direction where there is some movement and even then only vaguely. In the movies they never were really sure where it was coming from so why should you in this? And of course motion detectors work by sensing changes in air pressure so anything could set them off... a fan in a duct, a rat, a civilian, etc.
Also, I can understand why you didn't put in the alien's acid blood with all the narrow cooridors. One thing I'm not so sure about is whether or not the aliens move between rooms. Do they? In the movies they used the duct work to get around and it would be nice to see something like that in this.
One last thing... if certain individuals who like to complain about every little thing start to get on your nerves I recommend reading this: http://www.somethingawful.com/d/news/warcraft-frontline.php
It'll cheer you right up.

You like to aim for the most painful areas on the monsters. Each level gives you a 10% chance of doing maximum damage on a hit.
