Doom 1: Killing Zone - 3.7.1994 - Vanilla & Hard Doom - 100% on Ultra-Violence - (32)
1Doom Classic video #32
(3.7.1994)
(Links, secrets and more information at the bottom of the description)
Hello! Going back in time by a few days, as far as completion date of the wad is concerned.
And it's already been over a week from the last one too. I recorded vanilla playthrough of this 8 days ago, but only did Hard Doom today, so there's a good gap between the two.
Also, I might revisit the numbering for these later, but not sure, how I'm approaching that in these types of cases yet.
Did a bit of talking at the end of the video, so there's some extra length there for this video... Just a bit of an update and possibilities, what I could think of doing (or choose not to do in the end, heh)
In any case, this wad's a 1st one for Cos, which shows. The zip file comes with this map and also another one from Cos as well, which we'll be doing next, if I'm not mistaken with dates of levels. We'll see!
• It's really hard to think, what this whole level was suppose to be with it's theme: It's too random to make sense and you get that classic mapping move of 'author name built into layout of rooms' as well.
• Visuals aren't anything to praise for, placement for buttons is often weird and out of sight, few missing textures near ceiling, big red lined walls seen on automap (that aren't exits, thankfully) and so on. Still... could've been worse.
• For difficulty, start can possibly get a bit crowded, but after that it gets easier. Weaponry is actually decently handled, but most of the weapons you need to look for. Corners or secret-like areas.
... Ammunition is mostly ok. A tiny bit tight at start, but you'll have enough, as you progress.
... Health & Armor is more plentiful with progression.
• And no secrets marked, but definitely has secret areas. 1st key is basically a secret, I'd say.
It wasn't easy to find at all.
• Additionally, we have few lines, which over the monsters can't see the player, unless they're above certain height. There were at least 3 different spots with that problem.
So yeah... Far from perfect, but you do get your fill of Doom-action at least and you should be able to finish it without getting stuck (unless you can't find that 1st key!)
