Woot, 2nd Lieutenant!

This run taught me that a HR->HR->DM build is very helpful (if not essential) for AoRA, but trying to get EE->EE->Int->Int was a mistake. I'm not sure what build would've been better though, perhaps Rel->Rel->SM->MFA makes more sense. On HNTR, a quick dive usually doesn't get me enough experience to get a master trait, but two levels of Rel make a big difference if you're reloading shotguns all the time.

I've done several quick dives lately. This seems to work out fine on HNTR if a partial win is all you need. I took pretty much every staircase as soon as it came into view, and didn't bother to hunt for experience if there was time left. I'm afraid I'm going to have to unlearn that for HMP and up.

With two levels of HR and DM, Hellgate becomes laughably easy if there's no need to clear it. You can just dart past everything and make a beeline for the exit. The cacodemons will take care of most flying skulls, and after that their missiles are mostly blocked by pink gorillas that are too slow to get you. The Beastie Boys seemed too drunk to aim straight.

After that I ran through two consecutive arachnotron caves relatively easy, with a little help from a berserk pack and a supercharge. I evaded most mancubi and revenants, and blindly killed one of each. Somewhere around level 22 I entered a level with huge rooms, which was crawling with arch-viles and mancubi. An extremely lucky phase sent me to the far end of the map, two tiles away from the staircase.

Once I made it to Phobos Arena, I was dangerously short on, well, everything, except shells. Some tattered rags for armor, an empty rocket launcher, a half loaded plasma rifle and a chain gun with no spare ammo. My 300 shotgun shells were useless, as I never seem to find a way to evade Cybie's rockets long enough to down him with buck shots. No BFG, no rockets, no hellwave pack, and above all, no nuke for a partial win.

So, after a short but tedious pillar-dance with Cybie, my futile attempt to take him down with my unimpressive arsenal was interrupted by a "Warning! Explosion in 4 minutes!" And only then did it hit me: the most basic and obvious principle of AoRA...

Going for Strongman Silver, this meticulously levelled Vampyre, carrying a chainsword and two nukes, had a perfect kill rate when I got to level 24. Running into a mancubus and an arch-vile at the edge of my view, I decided to run for the stairs, leave a little present, and descend to face Cybie. (Why the kill count doesn't reflect the nuking is beyond me.)

With two red armors at 100%, a dozen big med packs, and a nuke, the worst that could happen was a partial win. As soon as I saw Cybie, I ran into melee range, and proceeded to carefully take him down. When he tore my red armor to shreds, I took a med pack, slipped into another red armor, and continued, keeping an eye on my health at all times. I was certain I could take another whack, when Cybie hit me, ruined my second red armor, hit me again in the same turn, and helped himself to my intestines.

Why, oh head-desking why, hadn't I set off that nuke?



Then, another run, in which another meticulously levelled near-Vampyre on unnecessarily low health daintily skipped 'round a corner on level 18, and was greeted by two imps' fireballs and a mancubi rocket.

Fuck this game.



Then, the third run, in which an absolutely unprepared and utterly careless foot-slogger, decided to just bash into everything on the shortest path to the down stairs...

...and found a lucky computer map which revealed a nuke, and invulnerability globes scattered all over the lower levels. Which lasted long enough to pick Cybie apart with an unmodded combat knife.

This was absolutely the most undeserving attempt at Strongman Silver ever. I never even got a knife until level 9. I waltzed through the Halls of Carnage just to get the Supercharge, and leave. I accidentally entered the Lava Pits because I was invulnerable and didn't read the stairs' description. I could've gotten another Compet-n Silver Cross with ease, and I might've used those homing phases to get a Major Icarus Cross. Had I cared.

But I'll take that Strongman Silver, thank you.

Finally I'm getting the slightest idea of how to play on HMP, and made it to Sergeant Major. I was going for UAC Silver and Veteran Silver, but died in the attempt and got Gatekeeper Silver instead. And a Gold Cluster UAC Star! I usually don't care much for medals, but 100 kills without taking damage has always seemed impossible to me, so I take a little pride in this one.

The one thing I've learned from this run is that it pays off to just wait around for some suckers to enter your FOV, and to fire blindly into suspicipous areas. Also, this is the first time I got Ammochain, and I have to admit I never had as much fun with a plasma rifle before.

I had a perfect kill rate until I met the charming couple of mancubi pictured above, accompanied by an arch-vile who just wouldn't go down. The three of them ate away all of my medkits. I did get that Arch-vile, but the third reincarnation of those mancubi did me in. Note to self: take off the Necroarmor before taking a beating; and don't forget you're carrying a High Power BFG and an assload of power cells, next time you're down to 6% health and scouting for mancubi.

So, with 18 Bronze, 3 Silver, and 1 Gold under my belt, I'll finally be able to experience the joys of Ao100! Playing at the same blinding speed as this run, it should only take me about 17 hours to complete...

Bug Reports / Another self-reference bug

This happened on version 0.9.8.7 Win+Sound. I was playing AoI on Medium, and found a large med-pack on Lev4 (a normal Phobos base level). When I walked over the med-pack and picked it up, I got the following messages:

There is a large med-pack lying here.
You use Ilya Bely immediately.
You feel fully healed.

'Ilya Bely' was the name of my character. I've noticed this only once during the game. Other pickup messages (including other large med-packs) were as they should be, before and after this occurred.

This situation appears similar to the 'You hit You' bug, except this time it's an item that bears the player's name. I don't know if the fact that I was playing AoI is important, but it could be (instant med-pack usage). Has anyone else seen this?

Bug Reports / Something hidden is revealed...

First of all, great job on the new version, Kornel. I did a couple of runs in 0.9.8.7/Win+Sound and I'm really enjoying the new features. I started a new player.dat - seems like a wise decision now ;) - and so played my first new games on easy. I made it to the Phobos Arena, but for lack of a nuke I got killed by Cybie. Tough luck. But guess what...

Requests For Features / Key to repeat level feeling
« on: March 25, 2007, 12:50 »
This one's so straightforward someone must've requested it before. How about adding a keystroke to repeat the level feeling, or whatever it is you call the message "you feel relatively safe now". I often overlook the message saying I just cleared the level, and I'd like to be sure before I go downstairs. Having a key assigned to display a message such as "you feel safe/uneasy" would be great.

Bug Reports / Persistent challenge game settings in New Game
« on: March 24, 2007, 00:51 »
I haven't found this bug reported anywhere, so here goes. In v.0.9.8.5 Win+sound, if you select Challenge Game from the main menu, then pick a challenge, then escape out of the Choose Difficulty screen, then select New Game from the main menu, pick a difficulty and start playing, you'll be playing with the settings of the challenge you selected (but didn't start) earlier. I've reproduced this for AoLT, AoB, and AoDr, so my guess is this is the same for all challenges. The challenge mode is reported in mortem.

This means that, once you've selected a challenge game and changed your mind, the only way to play a normal game is to restart DoomRL.

(In one such game, which I started as New Game but which was effectively an AoLT challenge, I'm pretty positive that the cave level on lv3 didn't have any down stairs - at least I couldn't find it despite Computer Map. I was stupid enough not to dump the screen, so please ignore this unless you can confirm it.)

Pre-0.9.9 / [E|97%|Win] YAFVP - My first Cybie
« on: March 21, 2007, 14:17 »
I'd never have made my first win if I hadn't found a chainsaw and the LS to beat the Arachnotrons in all these cave levels. I was lucky enough to find an Inv globe just before the UC so I could hack my way to AoD and kill him before invulnerability had worn off. Also, the Mortuary was ridiculously easy (hail the RNG, just two Archviles and a couple of respawned corpses) - I got the AA from the Mortuary but some Arachnotrons ripped it off me before I got to the Phobos Arena. Of course, I was stupid to throw away my spare armour once I found the AA. Thanks to nice defensive traits and the LS I managed to beat Cybie after all. In melee. :) Never even got to fire a shot from that shiny BFG, though. :(
