So MAD on N! is pretty much futile?

Anomaly in N!. Went there during AoSh. Full of death.

Assistance please. I managed to scrape through after using all my healthpacks, run, and a lucky few turns of berserk I had. The N! enemies in it are just too fast.

Does this mean no more DoomRL? :(

I doubt it. Even when it was just Kornel, he managed to keep not only DoomRL going, but BerserkRL and AliensRL, and still managed to keep interfacing with the community fairly often.

Now the development team is much bigger and even though Jupiter Hell might be commercial-quality, I dare-say that they'll still find some time to work on DoomRL ;)

The worst case scenario that I can see happening is that releases to version 1 get either postponed indefinitely or version 1 gets fast-tracked and the community takes over management of it - but these are extreme.

Please tell me that DBZRL is actually a possibility and not just a joke.

Jupiter Hell looks amazing though, may actually be my first kickstarter backing.

* Aki :)

I'm really interested in the whole "Spiritual successor to DoomRL" thing. I wonder what that entails?

It's not an incentive, nor a "possibility". We're PROMISING AA-quality graphics and a top-notch GFX/Audio layer here :). Nothing of the community/friends DoomRL level, but serious commercial stuff.

This teaser was meant to show that we've got the skills to deliver what we promise. If you guys will follow us in this journey.

I break to get ready for exams, come back, and then this.

I am so looking forward to this I don't even. This looks incredible.

Although, Thomas told me it was DBZRL so.... Nope, this is even better. I can't wait to learn more about this!

So finally won on N! after many many years and a little bit of coaching on IRC from Thomas/White/Laptop.

Who all said something to the effect of "Be a bigass pussy."

And that's what I did.

I was a pussy, and won.

Now that that's a few platinums down, I need to go and try and work out a better way to play on N! then rely on RNG a little and being a pussy. If you'll excuse me...

I wouldn't do city of skulls/Planes on AoMr unless I was sharpshooter with at least 20 damage and low firing time. Skulls have 50% bullet resistance which makes their 10 hp 20 for pistol purposes. And given that they have...220%? speed? It's just too overwhelming unless you can one-shot them.

So I gave MSc a whirl. It was quite disappointing, actually. Even with a bunch of exotics the only nice thing I really got was the BFG10k - which was hardly an asskicker, I ended up disassembling it to get the guaranteed Nano pack on the next level. And that was the only thing that came from MSc, everything else was pretty much picked up off the floor. Disappointing but probably useful for AAo666. :\

At first I found a nano pack and made the mother in law on dlev 14. I thought I was pretty much set - but it found little use and It ended up in the back seat after my Nanomanufacture plasma rifle (F) hit the stage. Ended up blasting through most of the game like that.

Everything was pretty much easy vile packs up until dlev 74 (relativly speaking - nanomanufacture rocket launcher and plasma rifle easy) - then I got jumped by 3 cyberdemons and 2 shamblers. OH GOODNESS WHY. My Cerebus armor saved my butt that level but yeah, it wasn't pretty.

The next few times I got jumped by cyberdemons I instantly jumped on IRC spamming thomas going "THOMAS SAVE ME PLS". Once he pointed out a berserk pack that I missed because I was too busy panicing about being cornered by 2 cyberdemons with minimal hp, and another time he told me to just suck it up. He saved me twice. That's what those saves were.

Apart from that, pretty unremarkable because I didn't get anything awesome. Nanofibre P probably broke the game - and as you can see towards the end, I pretty much ended up taking random traits.

So another non-N! platinum down.

That's assuming the Hellwave pack works in the Unholy Cathedral. I haven't tried it.

As for running past the demons, you'd need to be either lucky or have some antigrav boots or something crazy like that - they swarm up against the door.

20d10 is 20 dice with 10 sides - so it would do 20-200 damage, averaging at 110.

Probably best used when you come across a harder vile pack/the mortuary.

Well, that was an interesting experience. Took me a few tries to get past the Chained Court Hard but once I was past that it was pretty clean sailing - minus 1 stupid death due to 98% accurate brute 3 missing 4 times in a row and consuming all of my resources and another where I spawned on level 6 next to a few commandos. That was not fun.

Cleared vaults with Azarel's Scythe Altfire - for some reason, despite doing 20 plasma damage to everything on the level it actually took 5 shots to clear it, one monster was left alive after 4 bursts. There was a unique in there but I didn't get to see it. (can't open the middle one without staff/phases...) Was probably the Dragonslayer taunting me.

The level straight after that was a bit of a struggle - I had just taken Finesse before the vaults and using 1 more altfire then expected put me at odds with what to expect so I crawled out of that level with about 10% hp surrounded by viles and mancubi in a maze. A little bit of patience and cover got me through it, killing them one at a time (And plus, with red armor P and zerk, there wasn't much I had to worry about 1 vs 1, even on that low hp).

I paniced a little bit right at the end deciding on whether to go for another full win, because 1) I'm scared of JC (sshhh) and 2) I wasn't totally sure about the nuclear BFG's overcharge - whether it was instant or 10 seconds. I checked the wiki and barely reassured, went with my gut and overloaded it to be rewarded with one joke of a JC fight. I think I poked him like 5 times or something and he was dead, I didn't even see any other minions apart from the few lost souls.

The run was so long because I left my computer going all day - only to find out that when i'd come back my graphics card had gone berko while I was gone and everything was messed up. Luckily I left my doomguy 1 tile north of the stairs after the Armoury and saved (then fixed it). Ideally I would have liked to have done it with no saves...

Anyway, first diamond and yet another non-N! platinum down. I feel like I accomplished something today. Apart from lack of sleep.

Oh thank you RNG, giving me a free BFG like that. As if the one I netted from HoC wasn't bad enough.



Oh yes.

Wow. I looked at Limbo in the wiki... Yeah, not headed there any time soon...

Think I'm done for the night. Maybe I'll go back to MAD runs after this :/ It just takes so long or a pistol run to get up to speed.

Limbo is easier (on lower difficulties at least) because there's less possible monsters and the starting area has more options available to you - you also have to release the sections to get to other arch-viles. You also should have a general idea of dealing with lava at that point, or at least a spare envirosuit if you get knocked back too far into it.

The Mortuary. Now that's pure evil.
