Requests For Features / Re: Reward for the Hell Arena on AoMr is...
« on: September 07, 2009, 17:29 »
I'll compromise - advanced pistol on UV and N!
Mods on HMP and lower
Shouldn't difficulty play in to the risk/reward factor?

« on: September 06, 2009, 17:51 »You mean the Skulltag BFG10K? It was essentially an extremely sped up, hitscan rocket launcher. There is no BFG10K in vanilla Doom.
I meant to slip a Doom 3, in there. Sorry

In Doom 1 and 2 when you fire the BFG9000, the green ball flies out and no matter where it hits, a green explosion surrounds the enemies where they stand. The big key was: If you couldn't see it, you couldnt hurt it with the BFG. The damage done by the BFG was inversely proportional to the distance from the shooter, not the projectile
In DoomRL, it would be similar to how it launches a projectile right now, but instead of a huge blast radius at impact, all the enemies within visual (+2?) would get a green Vile-type explosion around them, and that would be the damage + destructive radius.

0.9.9 / [U|91%|YAVP|Beta] First UV Win - Defensive Shotgun build
« on: September 04, 2009, 07:25 »
So the only way I would ever win on UV is play 100% defensive. TaN & Ironman all the way. I chose shotguns because ammo management is much easier and I don't have to worry about accuracy. Great for shooting off in to darkness. I did not go the shottyman/reloader route though.
What really made this run work was the Jackhammer. The Necroarmor on one of the very last levels was nice too.
I had to save and quit 3 times due to distractions at work...damn those customers. The game was slow at well over an hour of total play time

Before him 45 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
38 of those were killed.
1 didn't read the thermonuclear bomb manual.
And 2 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.
Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
Is he immortal? 4 souls claim to have killed him...
1 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
3 killed the bastard and survived.

These baddies know where you are at all times (just like Cybie). No more sneaking around the outside of the level to avoid trouble because it will find you and fast!

Angel of the Arena.
Yes that's the entrance to the arena on Phobos Surface level 1, and this time there aren't only 3 rounds. Can you survive 25 rounds of the arena?
Key difference is you get one minute between rounds to loot the bodies of that last wave.
Difficulty: Medium to Blade
(depending on if you want some healing thrown in or make Cybie come out for the last round)

Requests For Features / Re: Change of skill rank requirements idea.
« on: August 30, 2009, 16:24 »Eh, not really sure about that - it looks like would either disolve into "a rank once few years" for people that rarely win or turn into "spam ITYTD until desired rank" for others.
Plus it seems a bit... boring?.. compared to current requirements.
Agreed. The system Gargulec proposed sounds an awful lot like how the "score" at the end of every run is probably calculated. Going off of "Total Scores" for advancement is a bit tedious.
So Malek, I take it you were trying to keep the current system but add more flexibility for players to get to the top. How about a system where each rank depends on three objectives but you only need two of them to advance. When you do advance, the one you skipped remains on the list but the other two are more difficult versions of the last. For instance rank two:
reach level 10
finish a challenge
kill 1000 enemies
You do the first and last objective and level up but now you see:
win the game
finish a challenge
kill 5000 enemies
Two of three objectives could allow players to advance but they would eventually have to face the challenge they tend to skip. It could go something like this
reach level 10 -> win the game -> win on HMP -> win on UV -> reach level 20 on N! -> beat N!
finish 2 challenges -> 3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 6
kill 1000 -> 5000 -> 25000 -> 50000 -> right....
I know the "kill monsters" threshhold is weak, but it illustrates the idea well.

« on: August 30, 2009, 08:00 »My idea on redefining skill rank requirements is to ditch predefined requirements. Instead of them put in sort of pseudo-achievements grouped by difficulty (such as: easy skill achievement: go to level 5 in Aob, medium: go to level 15 in Aob, ..., blade: beat AoB on N! etc.) and have the ranks require some number of achievements of difficulty X or lover (i.e. captain: get 2 easy achievements and 1 hard or something like that). The benefit of such thing would be avoiding the old "I can't beat AoB to get more goodies" problem.
This is a very interesting idea. One thing that jumps out right away is a skilled player that starts a fresh game beats the game on UV or N! on AoWhatever...does that mean they will be able to jump right to General within a few games? Maybe a few achievements should require both game time and total kills to ensure that you have to 'grind' a bit regardless of skill.
Some achievements could incorporate the new Awards and Unique weapons tracking criteria as well.
I'll throw in more thoughts in a bit

0.9.9 / Re: [M|85%|AoB|Win|BetaVer] Quite an interesting run.
« on: August 29, 2009, 02:21 »Aurora Medallion is probably for clearing the mort.
Good run - I think the Aurora Medallion was for finding a certain number of uniques in one run.

I'd like to claim that title!
Been playing DoomRL for 3 years and I can't do this.
One thing that would help me out immensely is actually getting a non-laptop keyboard with a keypad that lets me move in diagnols. All I can do is up, down, left, and right. The lousy numberpad replacement on laptops only use number codes for weapon changing and not directional movement :( Hint: keybind changing feature needed!

Zi's idea seems sound. How about if it were more doom-ish or more military like rather than material based. Same concept and requirements except have it go something like: Green, Rookie, Experienced, Veteran, Elite...etc

Discussion / Re: HOT TOPIC : New Rank requirements!
« on: August 02, 2009, 19:32 »
I don't have a concrete suggest but...should we incorporate a few of the new dimensions we have such as finding half or all of the uniques to achieve a new rank. Maybe add a few medals or badge requirements?
