Hello there.

Any idea if there's any kind of a contest starting for the new version, something like what was done after the last release?

Huzzah!

The best i could manage for the competition. A standard H run, going the Scout+int(2)+whatever else feels kinky way.

Highlights:
- Arena Key screwed by a misclick. Decided to not restart and just roll with it.
- A pity The Wall did not load. Backpack would be so useful
- Mortuary and Spider's Lair were fun, as always. For both of them, a bit of invulnerability was available at the start. Wich allowed for a tactical placement of a nuclear charge within the graveyard. Huzzah!
- the most fun was definitely at Lava Pits. Upon entering lvl24, i noticed there are no envirosuits stored in my backpack. So, aiming at conqueror, i decided to enter Lava Pits with half of invulnerability running, 1 large and 1 small medkit, and brass balls. None of which failed me, including brass balls. At some point i was not-yet-in-the-spare-suits-room, without invulnerability, without medkits, with low ammo (just some stray shells) and on some 40% life. Huzzah! Turned out the zerk-on-hit did wonders, and allowed for a quick charge towards suits. Later on, the E popped just a few tiles away, allowing for a quick finish the melee way.
- The C itself was tossing me left and right, until i remembered to dress properly for the party, thus reducing the knockdown and allowing for a quick tet-a-tet.
- this game was incredibly low on mods. I waited with getting whizkid until i have enough mods for any advanced assembly (after getting basic tactical set), and failed horribly.

All in all - tons of fun!

Another easy-to-beat attempt. This time i did my first ever E game. It was... too easy.
Highlights include:
- getting whizkid, and then failing horribly at assembling any advance assembly
- loosing Hellgate no-damage quirk due to miscalculating distance between character and the wall (self-inflicted damage - after that i did not care about damage taken).


All in all - a small disappointment. I wont return to E without a specific need in mind. Too easy + too little special levels generated.

Now, this should not be hard to beat, but since noone else post anything, and since i'm not sure i will have time for any more games in next days...

Some highlights:
- decided to go the 100% conqueror path. Which might be tad too ambitious for my meager skillz. On the bright side - managed to keep the 100% until the very end.
- failed horribly at arena key - i suck like that.
- failed horribly at painless hellgate passage - got splashed once close to end.
- two moments that contributed most to the final failure in Vaults were:
    * On level 17 he stumbled into complex full of mancubi! - that did cost me good few large medkits and tactical armor. Whoops.
    * loosing another bunch of large medkits in the City of Skulls, which was simply incredible. Vampyre wielding Azrael's Scythe, and zerk cannot kick in... Then noticed i am bashing those poor skullz with combat shotgun instead. Whoops.
- Vaults themselves - i simply did not remember, and did not want to spoil myself, what/where are exact opponents/items inside. If given second chance, i'd maybe wait a bit after opening, and then nail the center with 4 BFG shots (had 2 pieces of them), before closing in for a mopup.
- was prepared for Morty with 3 skulls, and for Lava with 2 suit & enviroboots. Should be enough, given some leftover medkits would be still available. And yet, in my shortsightedness, i did not notice i have no spare armor when entering vaults. And in fact did not notice an armour breaking. Result = charging vaults naked (but not shoeless).

 7 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 4 of those were killed.
 And 2 couldn't handle the stress and committed a stupid suicide.

 1 souls destroyed the Cyberdemon...
 1 killed the bastard and survived.

--------------------------------------------------------------

"damn, i can't yet play Angel of Masochism. Let's unlock it by gaining one more bronze badge. Which would be easiest... oh, maybe getting to lvl7 in AoB. Cool, let's do it".

Result - almost total pwnage.

Highlights:
- is there any reason to use chainsword instead of chainsaw, except if you want to run for normal-melee-weapons-only badge? IMHO chainsaw + any mod > chainsword, or am i terribly mistaken?
- even a decked out vampyre with longinus spear needs to watch it out. Used up a few medkits in spider's lair. And then had to flee mortuary, even after using fire skull as my first action there, then phasing and using hatred skull. Now that i think about it, the reason was simple - crappy armor. It was mostly arachnotrons that were slashing through my meat like hungry chineese dock worker through chopped liver. Vs themselves weren't posing much of a problem, at least not directly - they were very efficiently running away from the zerking vampyre manace (did i mention i had low movement speed due to weaing nanofiber red armor?). After clearing one half of mortuary, I got overwhelmed by summonees in the second half, and hit the PANIC button in the form of homing device. Which was pity, as before that i had perfect kill ratio.

Also, there's a typo in mortem file :-D
See the second-to-last line of mortem text - should be case added for a single form, instead of always "X soulS destroyed the C".

I wonder - maybe mortem files could/should contain information on the movement/fire speed?

A really funny run, ending in a plain and boring yasd.

Some impressions:
- new AoLT ROCKS! My approach to this was "lets try something random and see if it work. AoLT? Sure, it's always easy. What's that new class? Scout? Lets see if it fits. Oh, it has some new shiny master traits. Hmm, what would work best for AoLT... lets see in few levels. Most probably everything, as usually. OH, AOLT HAS ONLY 5 SLOTS!"
- scout + hellrunner + intuition feels... scouty :-D Especially equipped with tactical suit set.
- acid-proof boots + acid spitter = owneage supreme, subduing enemies into withdrawal by the sheer force of its awesomeness
- shell boxes could use some explanation ingame, how to operate them, how to refill them, etc
- acid-proof boots do not increase their protection when treated with P mod.

All in all - an AWESOME update of the game!

 Before him 41 brave souls have ventured into Phobos:
 38 of those were killed.




 Some rumours though, say that the Cyberdemon was killed already!
 Is he immortal? 3 souls claim to have killed him...
 1 sacrificed itself for the good of mankind.
 2 killed the bastard and survived.

--------------------------------------------------------------

So close...

First try of AoH in this version, and straight on UV.
Was struggling a bit - did not manage to fully clear Chained Court, had to run from some levels, and was leading a miserable life in general, including running out of shells and depending on missile launcher for dispatching enemies... until level 6.

The idea for this character to test how i go along with shotguns - it seems i go along quite fine, apart from the wierd beast that's double shotty, which has one HUGE drawback of not hitting things that can see you. The disappointment in double shotty, and the possession of chainsaw, made me steer slightly towards the melee build. Then, on lvl 6 - Pancor Jackhammer!

"HA!" said the DoomGuy. "I shall OWN the universe". "I shall be the Vampyre, King of the Night, swapping swiftly between Pancor and a good melee weapon. Hmm... chainsaw is fine, but to gain +style i need something bigger..."

So at first occasion he jumped straight into the Unholy Cathedral, being confident that his 200% of health, 2 large medkits, and MVa would keep him alive...

What can i say... the zerk from demons wore off on the second round of boss-fight, and never kicked in. While on 44%, i decided to go "just this one round more" before using medkit... resulting in swift execution due to double hit from Angel.

--------------------------------------------------------------

A list of impressions, without any specific order:

- UV is sooo much fun. Especially when combined with AoMC.

- The plan for this character to not go into any master traits, and just live on the basic ones, after getting Int2. However, at some point, I noticed I can take MCE just now, without prior planning. "Why not?" said the almost-kickass marine, and bought himself some glasses.

- Was aiming at getting 100% kills - and was pretty sure i got that. Was so surprised when i noticed, while viewing mortem, that it's not the case. It seems i did halls of carnage so fast that the lava did not clear all serges.

- Was pretty disappointed by not having Spider's Lair pop, and by missing perfect-hellgate run due to 1 misclick when fighting last bruiser.

- First time a non-nuke mortuary slay-feast - mmm, was tons of fun.

- spot an enemy called "nightmare imp" - a commando-colored "i". The only thing i can say about him is he dies in 1 Railgum volley. Tried to lure V onto his corpse to have him reviewed and have the beast dissected/analyzed, but the last Vile commited an embarassing suicide involving some red barrels.

- plasma shotgun and assault shotgun were generated but not picked die to getting destroyed on the ground. Assault shotty then reappeared later on in Mortuary. 2 pairs of phaseshift boots were generated overall. Here goes my belief that each unique/exotic can be generated only once.

- on the final showdown dress-up. I know the official dress code requires angelic armor to be worn, but just could not resist showing up in red-hot glowing Lava Armor, and bracing a massive railgun instead of the wimpy BFG or whatnot.

- seeing how UV looks like - i just wonder HOW can one do non AoMC 100% on that difficulty. This is ceraintly something i'm gonna aim at. Just wonder what would be the best approach to such a feat.

First attempt at UV in the new version.

Hell Arena -> easy, especially with cshotgun & power mod a few steps from stairs into it.

Chained Court -> here the problem begins.

Any bright ideas on how to efficiently tackle Chained Court/Arena Master in UV mode? I decided to just pick saw+2 zerks, and run head-first towards predicted <A> position. Sure it worked, but costed me all medkits and health going down to really low values, which then got me killed on the next level (a few steps away from the intuition-detected zerk pack). Also,<A> was dying really slow from cshot[P], so finished him with chainsaw -> seemed to go faster.

Apart from that - do you think it's a valid tactic on UV to go for the SoG->SoG->EE->EE->Int->Int->Fin->Fin->Wiz and then assemble assault rifle? The plan was to go sniping for the rest of the game. Should i maybe drop the initial SoG, to reach Int2 earlier? Any thoughts on such build, in UV environment?

Second game in 9.9.3.

Notable moments:
- Trigun, ha!
- running out of bullets on Hell8. Plus Arachno cave on Hell9. Kiling spiders with ammo found on the level, using up a ton of large medkits in the meantime. Killing the last aracho by means of pistol whipping, then finding "that one last clip" before descending into Cybo-Cave
- the Cybo-Cave with just one clip. Once it was finished, attempting to pistol-whip him to death. Whoops, he hits hard... After getting him down to severaly wounded, and quickly calculating how far i can get him with leftover medkits, i decided to just nuke it. A kill is a kill, after all.

Some impressions:
- the "run for your life" that occured on lvl 21 did not seem to do anything. I cleared the level, waited a couple of turns, and seeing that nothing happens, just left there, filled with echoing cries of its past inhabitants.
- AoMr on this level of difficulty feels almost too easy.

12
Yeeehaw, first game in 9.9.3 and scored an (easy) win.

Wanted to go for a 100% kills, unfortunately had to hit the PANIC button in Vaults - ambushed by several Ms, escaped via homing phasing device, without medpacks, on 8%. Suffice to say, the next level of hell was rather interesting - felt a bit like Agent Smith on the rooftop from first Matrix, only this time i did not meet Trinity.

Notable moments:
- hell-ride on 8% in hell after the failed Vaults attempt
- first experience with new Halls of Carnage - tried to achieve 100% kills, managed to reach stairs 2 tiles ahead the flood, after making myself an extra opening with rockets
- testing the three City skulls at the beginning of Cyberdemon fight. They did... nothing.
- some interesting moments in the hell, explained below as they relate to new stuff.
- taking the Brute trait... by accident.

New version impressions:

- ammo chain tweak seems to be just right. No instant whizkid access, no automatic finesse - both are good things!

- the new Hall of Carnage is... omg, it's interesting!

- new Skull City boss - eventless. He managed to summon Paint Elementals once. Other than that, he did not even manage to approach to the melee distance.. Although i can imagine that he has a nice OOMPH potential.

- new SKull City drops - those skulls. Probably they would require some more explanatory text in their description. As it stands, I was unable to figure out what they do. Tried to use them during Cyberdemon fight - they did nothing.

- new "tracking map" powerups. It's incredible! Saved me on Hell9. Without that, i'd walk straight into the jaws of death.

- new "warehouse" rooms - very nice feature! ability to shape the fighting environment - priceless.

- rivers and bridges over them - excellent. The strange knot in the gut felt when suddently 2 Viles pop in one after another while i am crossing the bridge over lava chasm, plus a serge just peeked from behind a corner (positioned to push me off the bridge) - priceless.

- new medical powerarmor - i love it.

And here it goes:

Discussion / request for advice

So...

...which one would you choose to use for an ammochain character in the following scenarios:
1#
a) assault rifle
b) gatling

2#
a) assault rifle
b) gatling
c) unmodified plasma

3# What would change if i'd tag an A or T or B mod to the plasma?

4# For ammochainer, should I modify plasma with AA, or can I allow myself one P/T mod within?

5# Any thoughts on high-power plasma for ammochain?

Discussion / Couple of questions
« on: November 08, 2009, 14:10 »
Hello there (first post, yay).

So it's some time now that i picked this new and wonderful game in its latest incarnation, and there are some questions that continue to puzzle me:

1# What does it mean "win a standard game with basic malee weapons"? What's the difference between this and AoB? Does it mean i cannot get a single kill with weapon other than malee weapons? Or maybe have the majority of kills with them? Or does it mean i only need to kill Cyberdemon with those weapons?

2# There's a badge for completing The Wall on AoB/AoM - how on earth is one supposed to do it? AFAIK phasing devices are supposed to take you only to the place you can get on foot anyway, right?(*) And there are no stairs to home onto.

(*) last time i went down there on AoSh with 6 phasing devices and not a single one put me through the wall.

3# Isn't it a bug that one can use a chain weapon during AoM? I'm talking about the Grammaton Clerk Beretta.

4# Isn't AoB a bit too easy? I mean, c'mon, this was my first win (ok ok, just had to brag a little. now got to check higher difficulties)

All in all - keep up the work on this incredible game!
