Forum / Hyperlink in sig?
« on: October 20, 2017, 03:09 »
Ever since I started video-recording my DRL games, I've had a link to my Youtube channel included in my sig like this: Check out my Youtube channel for videos of me playing DRL! :) Today, when I went to update my sig to include my new badges, it wouldn't let me hyperlink the text; I got an error message that said:
Did we make some changes to the forum recently or something? It wouldn't even let me save my sig as it already was! :o I was able to work around it by taking out the hyperlink, but it would be nice to be able to put the "URL" line back in there to make it look less cluttered.

Nightmare! / [N!|ArchAoHu|21%|YAVP] I DID IT! :D (Everyman Angelic)

"I'm working on N! AAoHu, and damn it's hard."
-2Deviationsout, 2012
That's right, I conquered the challenge that even 2Dev called hard! :D :D :D
It feels like I've been trying to do this forever! :o 173 recorded attempts, and that's just the ones that had videos; there were probably dozens of unrecorded attempts before that. Most of those videos are collecting dust on my hard drive, but you can see some of my previous attempts at this badge here, here, here, here, and here. My strategy has remained pretty consistent throughout, but this was the first time I truly pulled it off! :)
And click here for the video of my epic victory! :D
It's mostly a stairdive, taking advantage of the Scout's stair sense, with occasional deviations for valuable equipment and some tricky decisions based around gauging which enemies were necessary to kill and which ones I could just run past and/or avoid. The lucky find of a Combat Shotgun in a vault early on was a big help and the invulnerability/berserk combo going up against the Cyberdemon was a huge help! :) There were still some close calls here and there, but I was careful to not accidentally invoke the name of the RNG and He continued to favour me. ;)
I was growing increasingly excited about possible victory the further I got into hell, especially when I arrived at Dis berserk, looking forward to taking down the Mastermind with my Piercing Chainsaw, but then... disaster! My berserk ran out! O_o I briefly sank into despair, but I knew I didn't want to give up after coming this far, so what followed was 25 minutes of excruciatingly tense corner-shooting with my shotgun, knowing that at any time, it could possibly only take one barrage from the Mastermind to kill me. Her AI makes her somewhat unpredictable, but I've observed, in the past, that she tends to avoid positions where you can cornershoot her. Like, if she gets hit when she can't see you, she'll move to try to come at you from another direction, so that meant that any time I hit her, I would be forced to retreat, and come at her from another direction. There was a prolonged cat-and-mouse game, where I got her down to "lightly wounded" like this, but she managed to get a couple of barrages off at me, which I barely survived and made things all the tenser. :|
And then, the turning point in the battle came when I realized I could use the geography to my advantage; specifically, the pillars in the middle top and bottom are one square from the edge of the map, so I figured that if I could maneuver her into that gap, I could pound on her repeatedly without her being able to evade or return fire. It was tricky getting her into position and I still took another barrage on the way, but in the end, it worked out spectacularly well! It was still very, very tense, but I kept it up, one shell after another until I eventually managed to bring her down. (I considered delivering the coup de grace with my Rocket Launcher, but I didn't want to risk blowing up my cover and ruining the game) :)
WOOOO! :D

Century Lounge / [M|ArchAo666|YAAM] I am never doing this again
« on: October 19, 2017, 01:43 »
So, I recently got the (masochistic) urge to do a YAAM run of ArchAngel of 666. I don't know what I was thinking, especially since I'd done it before, but I forgot... I probably suppressed the memory because this challenge is so mind-numbingly boring! :|
Nevertheless, I wanted to one-up Sereg by doing it all with knives (for which a Malicious Blades build was the obvious choice) and I succeeded and I also picked up Dragonslayer along the way and confirmed a theory that probably no one ever thought of that DS isn't considered a knife for purposes of the Malicious Knives Cross medal. (Darn it! I really wanted to do ArchAo666 with MKC!) :| I can say that for sure because I used nothing but Combat Knives for the entire game up until I got DS, and the occasions that I nuked levels by overloading Nuclear BFG/Plasma Rifles, I was careful to do it right at the beginnings of levels before anything had a chance to die and made sure I had my knife back in hand when the nuke countdown finished.
So, I spent nearly 500 levels with a red screen with nothing able to touch me. Med packs were wholly unnecessary, because in all of the 500 levels, I never even went below 100% health, except for two occasions: One in the 400's where I used the Whirlwind ability while in the presence of a group of Arachnotrons and they got a whole bunch of extra volleys on me, and once somewhere in the 500's when there was a shortage of Supercharges and Megaspheres for several levels for some reason.
Incidentally, I still want to know how much time it takes to use the Whirlwind ability; the wiki says it's the time to do 8 attacks minus 5 seconds, but if that's the case, then with Finesse 3, I should have been doing it in almost no time, but it seemed to take about two seconds. (I tried doing it during a nuke countdown a few times and it consistently went down 2 seconds each time) Interestingly, the Hell Staff took almost zero time, (tested during nuke countdown) I think because I was a Technician. I've had other games as other classes where it noticeably took considerably more time. (Which I once found out the very, very hard way) :D
Anyway, towards the end, on level 660, I acted on information from Tavana and used a suggestion from ZicherCZ to run the Dragonslayer's berserk timer out and played the last 6 levels with DS, but not berserk! :D I just cranked up the run-wait limit, hit the run-wait buttons, and then switched to another window to watch Netflix while I waited for the DS berserk to run itself out. It didn't take as long as I thought it would; it was only in the 83 millions of turns! :)
So this means that I was able to confirm that, once that red junk is out of the way, the Apostle is indeed yellow in colour! :D
It made the last level uniquely challenging, because I was still trying to get YAAM, but Nightmare Demons kept teleporting in thanks to the Berserker Armour effect, and the Apostle kept raising every enemy as I killed them! :o Fortunately, there was a tracking map on that level, which was a very good thing, because I don't think I would've been able to find everyone otherwise, because the Apostle kept teleporting around, so the enemies he was reviving were all over the place! Removing corpses with a melee weapon was tricky; I was able to gib all the Formers that were there, but everything else had to be lured into doorways or lava and some of them got destroyed by the blasts of fire from the Apostle's attacks. I probably would not have survived if not for the fire protection from the Malicious Blades trait, (at one point he reduced me to 12% health!) as it took almost all of my med packs to pull through.
Nothing much else to say except that I'm glad it's all over! :)

Berserk! / [0.8.5|Endless|4|YASD] Best so far
« on: October 10, 2017, 01:28 »
Since somebody was nice enough to point out a link to BerserkRL, I decided to give it a good try and this was my best attempt at Endless mode so far, getting up to the end of day 4! :) At the end, the last enemy was a demon named TurAb and he was doing an awful lot of damage per hit, so I used the last of my energy to run as far away from him as I could before using a bomb on him. Unfortunately, he not only survived the blast but finished me off with a surprising burst of speed and damage. :o
I know I can do better than this; there's a nice variety of weapons and abilities and it's just a matter of figuring out how best to apply them. In this game, I tried heading straight for the special abilities like impale and jump attack, but I wasn't that impressed with them. My first time using the impale attack on a Mandagore left it "bruised." I get that the Mandagores are pretty tough enemies, but if I'm going to expend my hard earned levels and energy into that attack, I expect it to do more. (And if the attack misses, then I expended all the energy for nothing and I'd much rather have that energy for running) Also, I thought the description of the jump attack was misleading; I thought it was supposed to hit two enemies at a time, one that you pole-vault over (that gets impaled) and one on the other side of that enemy, but no, it only hits the one next to you (if it doesn't miss) and if there's another enemy beyond it, you can't do the attack. (There are a few other things I'd like reworded in the game too, but I'll save that for another time)
I think in my next game, I'll try building up the sweep attack; I keep getting swarmed by little enemies and I think that might be a better use of my upgrades.

AliensRL / [0.8.2|Tc|YAVP] First win as technician! (+Video)
« on: October 06, 2017, 00:46 »
So, I've been feeling like making another recording lately, but I'm in the middle of an ArchAo666 run in DRL, so I thought I'd bring some attention back to this old classic, AliensRL! :) I didn't expect to win; I was just kind of messing around with my new recording software and playing with putting an overlay of my face on the side of the recording, but somehow, despite some very harrowing battles and a lot of close calls, I prevailed! Yay! :D (Finding a Colt .44 on level 1 was a big help for that) :)
Here are the videos:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
I played as a Technician for no particular reason except that I haven't played as that character much and built up the tech skill right at the beginning to play to his strengths.
It's been a while since I played, but I remember the Combat Shotgun being quite overpowered and I seem to recall saying it's the only thing that made victory possible, but I never found one in this game, so I guess that disproves that! :) That being said, it took a while for me to build up enough supplies and courage to take on the Queen's chamber. (I didn't find a pulse rifle until quite late in the game)
I know everyone is busy with Jupiter Hell, but I still think this game is a lot of fun and would love to see it get some more development some day. :)

Nightmare! / [N!|ArchAoLT|93%|YAVP] Plenty doable :) (Lightfoot Angelic)
« on: September 19, 2017, 05:57 »
So, a while back, in February, Sereg challenged me to get Lightfoot Angelic without using melee to aid boss fights. (And he renewed that challenge again in June) :) It took me a while, but I finally did it! Yay! :D
I did it with a Sharpshooter build to maximize ammo efficiency, since that's what worked for me when I got Lightfoot Diamond before. The run was aided immensely by a nano mod from Hell's Armory which I eventually turned into a Nanomachic Pistol which permanently put an end to my ammo worries and made the rest of the game fairly simple. This makes it less of an effective demonstration than I wanted to, since Sereg insists that you need to weaken Cybie and SMM with melee attacks to save ammo, but I maintain that if I hadn't gotten the nano mod, it would've taken 57 bullets to kill Cybie and a similar number to kill the SMM and I had been entering practically every level with a full stack of bullets, (or in many cases an ammochain) so it should have been doable.
As is usual for me these days, I recorded it; here are the videos:
Part 1 Featuring: Hell's Arena, Chained Court (Plus!), Phobos Lab, Phobos Anomaly
Part 2 Featuring: Hell's Armory, Spider's Lair, Tower of Babel
Part 3 Featuring: Dis
I never intended to try for Conqueror, of course, since Unholy Cathedral would be an impossibility. I considered getting Explorer, but skipped Abyssal Plains because the prospect of being trapped in the ambush, surrounded by Pain Elementals, being able to shoot only one at a time, was very unappealing, and I just kind of didn't bother with special levels after that. (Except Spider's Lair where I almost died before giving up and fleeing for my life)
I made a point of taking things *very* slowly from beginning to end... (well not quite to end; I sped up later on, once I got the Nanomachine) :P I took the time to be careful every step of the way and took lots and lots of breaks so I wouldn't get bored or tired or do anything reckless. (It ended up being almost 7 solid hours of gameplay!) :o There were still some *very* harrowing battles, most notably in Phobos Lab and Phobos Anomaly where in both of which I got reduced below 10% health, without med packs, and surrounded by Nightmare Demons. Not gonna lie; I did not expect to survive those situations, but somehow, I pulled it off and it made my victory all the more epic! :D

Discussion / DRL: Xtreme Arena
« on: June 25, 2017, 00:28 »
Hi everyone! I'm not sure where to put this thread, so if a moderator wants to move it, that's okay. :)
Anyway, a while back, (about four years ago?) Maizure created a Beta version of a game based on DRL called Xtreme Arena. Maizure invited me to try it out back then, but due to technical difficulties, it remained untouched on my hard drive until recently... But now that I've tried it out, I must say that it's a pretty awesome creation that I can tell a lot of work went into, so I wanted to share some videos of me playing through it. (And winning for the first time!) :D Here they are, about an hour each:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
It ended with a crash which I guess is par for the course when you're playing a Beta game, but I think it's still a pretty good showcase of a great DRL spin-off. :)

Nightmare! / [N!|ArchAoHu|29%|18|YASD] Death by broken keyboard
« on: June 22, 2017, 17:31 »
My defeat in this run can be traced back to damage to the roof tiles of the house I'm living in... You see, there's a leak in the ceiling of my apartment and rainwater dripped on to my keyboard, which apparently shorted it out and made it nonfunctional. As a result, I've had to switch to a crummy old keyboard that has iffy keys that don't always register my key-presses. (Or, occasionally, add extra key-presses) With this in mind, I probably shouldn't have been playing this game at all, but despite these difficulties, I was doing quite well right up until it didn't register me pushing the F key to fire and I just walked up to a sergeant who killed me.
Anyway...
This was my best run of this challenge and my second time defeating the Cyberdemon in ArchAoHu! :D I had some really good luck throughout Deimos and some really good equipment and had a really good chance of finally beating this challenge and putting it behind me. This makes the way I died *really* frustrating, because it was completely avoidable and there was no reason for it at all. :|
Here's the video
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go sulk for a while...

Nightmare! / [N!|ArchAoHu|23%|16|YASD] Still trying...
« on: May 11, 2017, 12:28 »
I still try for that Everyman Angelic badge from time to time. I'm sure I'll get it some day, RNG willing...
This was yet another unsuccessful attempt, but I got to the Cyberdemon, so that makes it more successful than most! :) Unfortunately, the berserk pack that I was hoping to use against him ran out and I ended up spending the last minute of the video playing a hilarious cat-and-mouse game and damaged him all the way down to "Almost Unhurt!" :P Okay, so I didn't do much damage before he finally got a lucky shot and one-shotted me, but I certainly survived a lot longer than I expected. :)
Here's the video!
In fact... now, I find myself wondering if it could have been a viable strategy to just run him out of rockets... Just keep pillars between us until he has no ammo and has to chase me to try to melee me instead. With my agility-modded armour and HR 1, it might have been possible to keep ahead of him. Hmm...

Post Mortem / [U|AoHu|95%|11|YASD] Failed Everyman Diamond
« on: April 08, 2017, 04:07 »
I was debating whether or not it's worth even posting this, since I didn't win, but this board is quiet enough lately that I thought, why not?
I've made such an abundance of attempts at Everyman Angelic that I thought going for Everyman Diamond might be a refreshing change of pace. Well, it was refreshing in that I don't have to worry about my enemies respawning, but it was still full of lots of tense, harrowing, near-death moments (including getting hit by the Shambler three times!) :o that I'm glad I got it on video. Unfortunately, I failed to check the mic levels for much of the first video and I'm almost inaudible for most of it, so I don't know if they're worth posting, but I'll post them if someone requests it.
In the end, though, after lots of careful, slow plodding around, doing my best to avoid getting hit, (and lots and lots of radar shooting) I got taken out by a Revenant who one-shotted me, even though I was at full health and wearing power-modded red armour and I successfully dodged, meaning that he didn't hit me with the full impact. Such as it is with Angel of Humanity; I guess my luck just ran out. :| Oh well...

Post Mortem / [M|AoI|99%|YAFW] Got the last silver! :D
« on: March 29, 2017, 00:26 »
Just a quick game to grab the last silver I was missing. :) Vampyre build so I could heal when there were no med packs around with some Whizkid at the beginning to make sure I got the Cerberus boots.
This game marks the first time I actually used the medical armour! :o At one point, my health went down to 17% and I used the medical armour to heal myself up to 25% before walking over to a med pack, just in case. It didn't end up making any difference, but it was nice to have an alternative portable method of healing in a game that denies you from carrying med packs. :)
The 8 kills that I missed were the 8 guys in the centre room of the Vaults. Angel of Impatience makes it almost impossible to conquer the Vaults; you can't carry phase devices to teleport in there and you can't carry med packs to use the Azrael's Scythe trick and you can't carry the AMS to crack them open. You can't even carry a nuke in there to nuke them! The only way I can envision doing it is to find a lucky Nuclear Plasma Rifle and a lucky Invulnerability just before going in.
Oh well, Explorer badge is nice to have, I guess. :)

Post Mortem / [M|AoI+AoD|95%|17|YASD] One silver to go...
« on: March 06, 2017, 23:04 »
So, I've been short 2 silver badges for a while, Arachno silver which requires Angel of Darkness and Lava silver which requires Angel of Impatience, so naturally I tried to get them both in the same game! :)
I played at HNTR because I didn't feel like doing anything *too* difficult, but it turned out to be a lot more difficult than I expected. :| Nevertheless, after several tries, I succeeded at getting one of them. (And if I hadn't died, the Cerberus boots would have made it easy to get the other one; oh well...)
I thought my tech-modded Chainsaw and Finesse 2 would make my attacks fast enough that I could easily avoid getting hit back by the Angel of Death, (not to mention my anti-gravity boots) and I was mostly right, but he was able to hit me a few times, so I guess I miscalculated my moves? :S I think maybe my equipment made me a little overconfident and I didn't take enough time to observe the AoD's movement patterns.
Oh well, one silver is better than none! :)

Nightmare! / [N!|AoMC|95%|YAFW] Guaranteed DS is easier than you think
« on: February 03, 2017, 03:43 »
So, this game was supposed to be Destroyer Diamond, (win at N! while taking 50 damage or less) but ended up being Destroyer Platinum instead. (200 damage or less) I tracked my damage throughout to help me know where I was with my goal and still managed to get Conqueror! :)
My original goal was kind of setback from the beginning because I had already tried this a whole bunch of times in a row and was getting impatient and I took a whole lot of avoidable damage, first from a Former Human two steps into level 2 and then from carelessly going too close to a barrel when a Hell Knight was around on level 4. (26 damage! The biggest single hit of the game!) I officially lost the Diamond at Phobos Anomaly where I took a pounding from Nightmare creatures for a total of 58 damage just from that one level, (Ouch!) and the runner-up for most damage on one level was 44 in Deimos Lab. I thought, for a long time, that I was going to fail to get the Platinum too, but somehow, I managed to stay just barely under 200 for all of Hell. (6 damage total out of all Hell levels!)
The most interesting thing about this run for me was that I got the guaranteed Dragonslayer to spawn in Unholy Cathedral! (My second time to ever do that!) It's long been theorized that you have to play the game damageless to get it, or that you have to play the special levels damageless, or at least UC damageless, or that you have to have 100% killrate, but I think this run sucessfully proves all of that wrong. I had taken 191 damage up to that point, much of it during special levels including 6 damage in UC, and had a kill percentage in the 90s. (I also got the guaranteed Berserker Armor in the Mortuary!)
As is usual for me these days, I recorded the whole game. There were 5 and a half hours of actual gameplay. (Lots of slow, tedious, plodding around, trying to avoid damage) It says 14 hours in the mortem because I took *lots* of breaks. This is a really mind-numbing challenge for me, because I'm really not that great at avoiding damage, so I wanted to approach every couple of levels fresh. (That massive hit from the Hell Knight at the beginning in particular was due to tiredness) Anyway, here are the videos:
Part 1 Featuring: Hell's Arena, Chained Court (Plus!), Military Base, Phobos Anomaly
Part 2 Featuring: Deimos Lab, Containment Area, Abyssal Plains, Spider's Lair, Tower of Babel
Part 3 Featuring: Unholy Cathedral, The Vaults, The Mortuary, Lava Pits, Dis, Hell Fortress
And in case anyone's wondering what I was doing during those breaks, I was mostly working on a 3D jigsaw puzzle I got for Christmas. It's almost done and I'll post a picture of it later. :) (It's a pair of cats!) :D
The only other thing noteworthy in the run is that I took a massive risk at the end of Deimos Lab by invoking the name of the RNG. :P I couldn't resist, though; the lab cache had two sniper mods in it. Two freakin' sniper mods! mods that max out accuracy in a challenge that maxes out accuracy. *Facepalm* Of course, there's also the alternate use of making a plasmatic shotgun, but I had just picked up a plasma shotgun a few minutes earlier, so there was no point. Oh well... The plasma shotgun was unbelievably useful anyway, especially in Mortuary, for clearing away corpses, so no complaints. :)

I've been meaning to post about this for a while... For the past couple of months or so, every time I try to visit the Chaosforge forum page from my Android phone, I get taken to a white screen that says,
There's a link attached to the word "here" in the above text, but I'm reluctant to touch strange links unless I'm sure this is expected behaviour and not a virus or something. I can visit the forum fine from my home PC with no issues, so that's what I've been doing, but I was hoping someone from the admin team could let me know if this is something expected or something I should be worried about.
