>>2752056 >>2752098 this has interesting consequences for switching from <100% blue to 100% green
consider having 100% health, 99% blue, the 99% blue will absorb half incoming damage allowing you to take 198% damage leaving 1% health, allowing 199% damage in total
100% health 100% green, the green will absorb a third incoming damage, that is to say for 150% incoming damage it will absorb 50%.
this means by picking up the green armour you have essentially taken a damage of 49%. that's like being hit by a revenant missile. where was the huge red pain flash?!

>>2752348 right, i get you. but those are quite common, as traps for the unwary. DRLA demon weapons are rare (so rare in fact that i have yet to see one generated - where do you find them?); i find having something rare but awful to be rather silly.

Quoted By:
>>2752340 This is something that I think really keeps DRLA from feeling like a proper roguelike. The enemies are the only things out to get you, instead of the whole game. Even the equivalents to cursed armors are all really fucking good to offset their permanence. Crates only ever hold helpful items, even if they're just pistols or medikits. The only "bad" weapons are the standard ones, which are still adequate for killing the demons and can be easily disposed of as soon as anything better shows up. There's just none of the cruelty that anyone familiar with the genre would come to expect. It ends up just being Diablo with guns, which is why it's so popular. Casuals wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole if it were half as mean as even the most babby-tier actual roguelikes.
The original DoomRL brings its cruelty through what the levels can do to you (switches that turn the entire floor into lava and such), which obviously can't be recreated here. But I think DRLA takes enough liberty with the source material already that it wouldn't be heretical to introduce some other elements from Rogue and its spawn. Cursed weapons that you can't truly get rid of would require a manual pickup system, which I won't ask for, but they could still be implemented in another manner. Maybe make cursed weapons slower to select and deselect and when you drop them, they take some ammo with them. Or they seem like perfectly normal weapons until you attempt to mod them, at which point the mod has the opposite of its usual effect. Just...something to make it less "weapon and monster randomizer but with quality control this time" and more actual roguelike.

Okay. I think I might be onto something here.

>>2752363 The range attack looks really good now. The problem just lies in the melee, and why you would ever use it if you could avoid it. You needed three melee swings to wipe out that group of demons near the end, when you just previously demonstrated that you could do the same work in a single projectile swing. 60 cells and putting yourself in melee range as opposed to 30 cells to do the job from a safe distance, it's not even a choice.
Anonymous
>>2752376 Yeah, so I'm trying to think of a different, valid secondary fire.
I don't think melee is a good idea, you can whack shit with it as a melee weapon if you're out of cells, but when you're juiced up? I need something better.
Anonymous
>>2752382 I still think you need to swap the fires (Melee primary, ball flinging secondary) and swap the cell costs (Melee taking 30 cells, etc.)
Personally not smacking an enemy with a baseball bat all would be silly, but that's just me.
Anonymous
>>2752382 Maybe a rapid single shot swing? 3 cells a pop, just fires single balls in a straight line. Better for single targets you can't chance getting too close to, like cyberdemons.
Anonymous
>>2752385 Well as I said, you can still whack shit when you're out of cells, but I can't find a happy outcome for a powered swing because it's either gonna be EZ mode clobbering or too impractical for its own good
>>2752386 Well that's where the buster rifle comes into play, it's good for rapid fire attacks
Anonymous
>>2752382 >Different valid secondary fire It's a baseball bat
Smash their faces in.
Make the weapon do better at that by either
>Making it much faster with the same power and have it take less cells >Make it much much heavier and powerful for less cells Also make the range shot take a lot more cells.
I'm assuming it has infinite range.
Give it a downside.

>>2752390 Buster rifle doesn't rip, though, does it? Outside of that charged railgun shot, which is in no way rapid.
Anonymous
>>2752391 It doesn't have infinite range, actually, that big ball explodes after traveling a set distance, the smaller balls travel infinitely yeah but at long range they'll be spaced out too far to do anything worthwhile.
and right now the supermelee attack hits for 75 damage, and then explodes for either 220 damage with a radius of 250 or 380 damage and 350 radius if it's a SMAAAAASSHING hit.
Part of the problem I suppose is a player could just aim at the flower with the primary fire and do a shitload of damage, more than the melee can right now.
I could do what
>>2752392 this guy suggested and making the secondary fire a faster swinging/firing ripping ball and add an overlapping weaker melee attack at the same time, and combine the current supermelee with the new primary fire I've made, but maybe not as absurdly powerful. That way you can ALWAYS whack shit

Most of Plutonia just blends together for me since it's mostly "green jungle army base with green camo and vines" everywhere. In each level skeletons and chaingunners will pop out of various pillars/closets (typically behind you) after you grab the weapon, key, or flip a switch.
As the levels go on, add cacodemon, pain elemental, and archvile to the list of enemies that ambush you and that's the entirety of Plutonia. I still love Hunted though. So much fun.

If there's a Quake thread, people will occasionally bring up Q4, there's nothing wrong with that.
In a Diablo thread, people will talk about Diablo 2 as much as they'll talk about Diablo 1. Sometimes people will bring up how much of a disappointment Diablo 3 was, before going back to talking about the older games.
In Duke Nukem threads, people will mainly talk about Duke 3D, forget the old sidescrollers for the main part, and occasionally talk about how fucking embarrassing Forever was.
In Baldur's Gate threads, people will talk about Baldur's Gate II and how it was really good, how you can run a port of 1 in the engine of 2, or debate if EE is good or not depending on what you want.
Say that Powerslave/Exhumed of all games, got a reboot or a sequel, people would talk about that in Powerslave threads, how is that a bad thing?

Hi, does anyone here care about source port development? I want to know what people think about object oriented programming and C++ in ports. ZDoom and Eternity Engine have switched and are considered very moddable and quite well made, (less so on ZDoom,) but I would like to know if anyone else thinks it's necessary or otherwise a good choice.

>>2753654 Though Doom was written in the C language, which is not inherently object oriented, thinkers utilize a technique common in C programming called pseudo-inheritance. Every type of structure which behaves as a thinker contains as the first member in its definition a thinker_t instance. This allows pointers to any of the various descendant types, such as mobj_t, to be cast to and from a pointer to thinker_t. Each thinker contains a pointer to a function to be executed every tic that is specific to its derived type, such as P_MobjThinker for mobj_t. Testing the value of this function to determine the true type of a thinker_t instance is used as a rudimentary form of run-time type information.
As a result of the architectural similarity, most C++ source ports translate this idiom into a full class hierarchy - this is the case for both ZDoom and the Eternity Engine.
The type punning scheme used to cast structure pointers back to their true type from thinker_t * is illegal in the current C11 language standard. This means that modern C language compilers may not generate valid code given the Doom source code unless special command line switches are provided (such as -fno-strict-aliasing for GCC). This is true in particular when high levels of optimization are requested from the compiler.

Quoted By:
>>2753678 Huh. I think I now understand object oriented design a bit more. Been struggling to figure out how actor systems work, but this actually makes quite a bit of sense. In C++, I assume something like this would be implemented through virtual functions by either returning function pointers or by just outright doing the logic there, but somehow Doom's solution seems a bit more elegant.
Another way I can think of would be to have function pointers that are set by a constructor, which is slightly.. grotesque. Or just use Doom's solution.
Thanks. I might go through with making a port with chocolate doom or prboom-plus as a base. Though now I'm not quite sure about using C++, heh.

Though it does have the best chainsaw in the series, given that if you put your mind to it, you can take on almost any enemy in the game with it, if done right, because it's actually pretty powerful.
The same can't be said for the original chainsaw, it's got it's uses, but it's limited in what enemy you can use it on and not get buttfucked.
In Doom 3, there isn't anything actually stopping you from using the chainsaw on hellknights, pinkies, tentacle-commandos, cacos or arch-viles, if you know what to do, and Doom 3 really is the most fun when you play with the chainsaw (which is why I'm sour that it's not in the expansions).
If you get the urge to ever revisit Doom 3, try to play the game with the chainsaw as much as possible, it really makes the game a lot more fun.

Also even back then in the E3 demo you can really just expect good ol' texture streaming/pop-in to happen since it's pretty much inherent.

The chaingun there sounded really beefy and the fuckhuge BFG was fun shit. It was also fun clobbering people with flashlights. I'll keep that chainsaw run in mind next time I reinstall Doom 3.

not saying it's not a fucking god tier mod or anything, just drop the ratio for at least 2/4 times each time you play any new megawad or mapset, and get used to using per kristians sfx mod only instead (which is much more acceptable and does wonders to gameplay believe it or not). You'll learn to let go of it in time.
which can turn into a fucking godsend in many cases where smooth doom turns into a RAM hog for some fucking reason due to every single enemy having a gib animation and blood splatters everywhere Anonymous

Is it me or is Doom 4 basically Quake 3 Arena / Quake Live (given the loadout system) mixed with old-school Halo? The slower movement and no-bunnyhopping pace as well as two-main-weapons of Halo, the no-reloading and no-holds-barred hunting of other players of Quake.

I don't necessarily agree with your beliefs regarding "Doom babies", I'd like to think it's not nearly as bleak as you paint it. It is distressing how infrequently the community actually plays Doom around these parts, nothing like when the general was just starting and we'd pack a DM server all day long. People usually say it's because the community as a whole moved onto content creation, and I believed that for a while, but it's simply not true. There's still very little mapping output and our mod output is lower than it's ever been. All the lesser-known modders left. It's basically just Kegan, Term, and Spook now. Janrela, ProjectILE dude, Scroton, Vince, Ijon, they're all gone. Even Hexen Combat guy has only been in sparse contact. Marrub seems to have dropped the game he was doing for GLOOME. So I have to wonder, what is everybody doing? Are we all just playing stuff in singleplayer? The population of the threads hasn't decreased, but we aren't playing multiplayer and very few people are modding or mapping. So what are the rest of you doing?

>>2754371 Personally, just comfirming moving on to playing lots of singleplayer. Checking out new maps, mods, testing, tinkering. I've barely looked back at multiplayer, aside from shit like Hideous Destructor survival or something equally fun to work together on.
I think people not playing online is a compound problem. As cool as it is to play together it's hard to go past casual lone wolf get-each-other-killed level shit even with harder maps unless you're with a small team with voice comms or something. Even then you'd be better off beating it solo without lag or other players' unpredictability/taking resources, since maps are mostly made to be beaten alone (with exceptions that have mp-specific object placement).
I imagine deathmatch's shine wore off to most once it was clear that at least one or two people would be more or less untouchable over the course of a few months. Although, whose fault is that, really?
There's also been little new to play on Zandronum, its projects forum has been stagnant compared to when /vr/ started.
Above all, lack of organization, though that last game of Shotgun Frenzy went over well. Just need a guy to get things started.
Mods. Yeah, don't know what happened there. People have been asking a whole lot of questions, but actual releases have been pretty low. Maybe there's just stuff being worked on quietly, but I'm certain there's been less people working on things.

anyway doors go up to the lowest adjacent ceiling height, minus 4. in your case this is the lowest point of the slope. what you need to do is make an air gap between the door and the slope around it so the door is not sharing a linedef with the slope.
does that make sense?

serious question: has there ever been a game where the publicly shown gameplay experience changed significantly between the E3 demo / early alpha, and the final product released less than a year later?

>>2755941 i wouldn't know why precisely but the original Doom's alpha comes to mind for some reason
but then again that was probably an extremely rough draft that was almost entirely shunned when the devs decided it was going to be a gameplay-driven game at a later point, whereas they already have a full-on concept up and running for Doom 4 so it's probably an unfair comparison
the only two things they can do to appease to the majority at this point would be increasing player speed and making movement more fluid, then there's a chance people would look past the nitpicking and actually enjoy it for what it is

>>2755876 While I oppose regenerating health, admittedly the shield system worked kinda well, at least in Bioshock Infinite. You have your main life bar, which must be refilled, and your much smaller shield, which regenerates on it's own. Once the shield is down, you lose health, once your health is low enough, you can count on the shield for a narrow timeframe until you can heal yourself. Or so I would think in theory. The shield should only be a thin layer to protect you, not your entire health.

Okay, I really need to figure out how to upgrade my computer and then get a job for money for the parts. I need to play this at 1280x720 windowed to even hope to play it since the maps never load fully and I just lag until I lose connection to the host at full screen.

>>2756774 It's a valid point, not a meme. Doom's time to kill is really low compared to Quake's. Even if we don't count the SSG, rockets kill in one shot, plasma can kill in as few as three, and the BFG can score several kills with one well-placed shot. Even the regular shotgun is capable of oneshotting, although that's really rare (maybe even impossible with vanilla pRNG?). While soulspheres and megaarmors can slightly increase TTK, it's still nowhere Quake levels. You take two rockets to the face in Quake and you back the fuck off to rebuild your stack. You take two rockets to the face in Doom and you're dead, stack or no.

Doom 2 In Name Only
d2ino.zip (6513 KB, 2014-06-14) - Various, see below
https://www.doomworld.com/idgames/?id=17714 map24: this map's architecture and texturing is excellent, a variety of styles from cramped to wide open. but it is so annoying to play, you can't waste any ammo or health at all. no skill levels either. to reach the end i eventually gave up and turned on infinite ammo.
it's so much worse when a map looks like it should be great but plays awfully. you go through it constantly thinking, i should be loving this but it's constantly hurting me, like an abusive relationship. (with apologies to those stuck in, you know, actual abusive relationships.)

>>2757106 whether a perpetual floor goes up or down to begin with, is random. this means if your cylinders are all separate sectors (with the same tag number) there's no way to guarantee they'll move in sync.
what you need to do is join or merge the sectors. what this means is that you take two disjoint shapes and make them into the same sector. how you do this depends on the editor you're using. DB has a function for this, i believe; someone else here hopefully knows what it is called and how to access it.

So he gets it in his head that everyone in these threads can't possibly be a true Doom fan. No, they must be underage. They must be from /v/. They must like other games, like Halo and Call of Duty.

Could have used some sort of stock maybe.
I like how you reloaded two shells at a time, real time saver, more videogames and gameplay mods need to ape that.
What I hated about the Doom 3 shotgun was it's absolutely preposterous spread.
It would spread more than the original SSG would, it was absurd, in the original Doom you could hope to hit an enemy from 25ft away with most of a pattern, in 3 it would pattern all around him and you'd be EXTREMELY lucky to hit even one pellet on the guy.
It's also questionable from a lore standpoint, I mean, would you want your security personnel to be outfitted with a weapon that spreads like a blunderbuss on crack? It's a recipe for accidents and collateral damage.

>Given the close quarters environments that you were always in, it made sense to have it be an insanely close range weapon, and you could still kill an imp in 2 or 3 shots from 10 meters away. That's not a fucking good shotgun, Jesus, at that distance you would have reliably slain an imp with the original Doom shotgun with one shot most of the time.
If a shotgun in a First Person Shooter can't reliably drop a mook enemy in one shot at 10 meters, I'd say it's a pretty fucking SHIT shotgun.

While true for most games, 10-15 meters in Doom 3 was considered "medium" range, because of how cramped it was, most of the time. The Hell levels really opened up and gave you longer ranges of engagement, which made the shotguns weakness really stand out.
Doom 3's plasma gun is still my favorite incarnation of of the plasma gun though.

Chaingun was alright in terms of design, but it should have held 100rds per belt and shoot almost twice as fast.
Plasmagun was ok, but shot too slow.
Grenades were worthless, not only did you have to put away your weapon to use them, but they would seemingly always bounce the opposite way you wanted, they'd bounce out of holes you tried to throw them into, they'd bounce back from around doorways landing in front of your feet.

>>2758030 large mazes in general really. mazes that are invisible on the automap. open mazes where you're restricted to a path but the monsters can still see and shoot at you from afar. some of the worst examples:
- ndcp2 map17's reactor core, not so much a maze, but you have to find 12 switches in a giant set of tunnels made of multicolored strobelights and 20% damage. there are only just enough radsuits for if you know exactly where you're going to begin with. if you waste any time at all you're screwed.
- hellfire:reborn map07. there is a maze made from corn. the floor is not damaging, but it is made from masked middle textures: invisible on the automap, blocking your sight but not incoming enemy fire. so you're constantly taking damage from fireballs you have no chance to react to. then when you reach the middle, a spiderdemon is released at the edge.
- dickwad2 map04, the whole level is one giant maze of 32-high hedges, hitscanners, and invisible teleporter lines that put you back in the middle.

as for the map, well, it's short and simple, mostly rooms, halls, and doors. the red key room was probably the best part. there's a fair amount of floor detailing, such as borders on the halls, the time for which would probably have been better spent making a more interesting interconnected layout with some windows to glimpse between areas. nonetheless, it's a decent short map and i don't regret the time spent on it.

>>2758470 >Scythe 2 is way harder than Plutonia Hell no it's not. You might be retro remembering a later plutonia playthrough, but Scythe 2 doesn't have closets upon closets of chaingunners/revenants/archviles that open up everytime you grab a key, flip a switch, or pick up a weapon.
Plutonia is just attempting to kick you in the dick over and over by opening more and more nooks and crannies that are stuffed with the aformentioned monsters. If you really do believe that Scythe is harder than Plutonia then at least you can admit that Scythe usually puts its challenge in front of you rather than having it spawn/pop out behind you.

>>2759179 The fuck are you talking about, scrub. Scythe2 starts gently, but it utterly kicks Plutonia (and the player) in the balls in the latter ~20 maps. There's nothing in pl that would even remotely resemble the evil of s229.
The meme about PL being all cruel and evil is bullshit. TNT is much more unfair with its chaingunner ambushes and health drought - and they come in the first half of the game, making it one of the few megawads that get easier over time.

>>2759148 I'm not sure about what everyone else thinks of Bethsoft, but whoever thought it was a good idea to release a video showing *actual gameplay footage* from the closed alpha release BEFORE everyone else had the chance to get inside their MP servers must be mentally-ill and may have been fired already.
Don't get me wrong, it was a genuinely good surprise that the rest of people who couldn't (and may never) get inside the alpha tests could see what's going to be in it (me included), and I can see why they did that and why they planned a video beforehand, but you shouldn't do that as fucking early as they did. It devalues the concept of 'exclusive' closed alpha tests, and now the rest of the world that never bought Wolf:NO to get in the Beta is judging the game in its entirety because of that video.
Yes, even if it's just an alpha right now; that's what you get for doing such a risky move without actually thinking about it first.

>>2759353 At this point it's coming down to preference.
Scythe 2, imo, was actually pretty easy (for the most part) until the later levels where it got logically more difficult. Playing through Plutonia just feels like a boring slog where the player is ambushed on skinny walkways, in tight closets, and often with monsters like chaingunners, revenants, and more often pain elementals/cacos.
I, personally, find it to be an incredibly dickish move to do these things frequently through out each level; which is why I don't like Plutonia and think that it's more difficult than Scythe 2.
If plutonia being cruel is a meme then that means a lot more people think it's true than you; since that's how ideas spread and become memes.
