Title: I want my wall!
Post by: Angle of Death on January 27, 2009, 00:29

In the past 4 games or so I've played on ITYTD, the stairs to the Wall have not appeared. It's unlikely that I missed them every time, as I was not rushed and explored each level with extreme thoroughness. Are the special levels guaranteed to appear?

Some special levels, such as The Wall and Hell's Armory, aren't always generated. The Wall, however, has a very good chance of appearing, and most of my characters have it generated. You probably just got unlucky four times in a row.

Interesting...not all of the special levels appear on the ITYTD difficulty (Like the Mortuary), but I'm fairly sure that didn't apply to The Wall

I usually get it on that difficulty. To add insult to injury, I had two levels of whizkids and had a dozen reload and damage mods I was saving for the advanced rocket launcher there.
