What difficulty do you play on?
Difficulty
UV, course. Though that means you spend a couple of levels with noammo.
Doom is pretty fair in difficulty, it's no Wolf3D where enemies have a chance to randomly take off 2/3rds of your health. Fucking undead officers.
Hey, Not Too Rough. I want an enjoyable trip through Doom please. But I've never actually finished a Doom game before.
Hello game journalist
When I was a kid I played on "Hey, not too rough" because that one sounded the most reasonable. When you're playing with people you don't want them to be too rough, do you? That's just not fun for anyone involved. IIRC it felt like an appropriate level of difficulty, I don't think I got beyond the second chapter but it was still one of the first videogames I can remember actually somewhat understanding, rather than just interacting with the controls randomly and looking at what the colors on the screen did. Also I switched between mouselook and keyboard because I wasn't sure which was better, the mouse was complicated when I was like 6 and they were relatively new.
And I haven't really played an FPS since I was 12, other than occasionally fumbling around in console shooters at friends houses and things in highschool
UV is obviously the intended difficulty for when you get the hang of the game. Nightmare is a meme but is mostly pretty easy if you know what you're doing, outside of E1 because of hitscanners.
UV. In fact I was shocked to know many /vr/ dudes play below UV. UV is piss easy, and knowing that many people play on HMP which contributed to the group consciousness that Doom is this slaughter game is fucking embarrassing.
>which contributed to the group consciousness that Doom is this slaughter game
I never ever got this meme. Do normalfags just run everywhere trying to kill everyhting with the plasma gun or something?
The "never mind, I'll play another game" difficulty. I am not doomed, after all like the rest of you.
lol
That's the thing. On lower difficulties, and even on UV, you can. Because Doom's AI is pretty fucking dumb.
>Shoot
>Let me just walk in a circle, or walk slightly towards the player, and THEN shoot again
UV is pretty easy if we are talking doom 1 or 2
now UV for final doom or custom .wads is a different matter entirely
Im too young to die.
I play games for the story and to have fun not to die and have to restart and not have fun.
im actually surprised i managed to get to the last few maps in scythe2, AV and speed of doom on UV tbdesu, then again i do play with mouselook and autoaim off
UV-fast, nightmare is just obnoxious
UV for doom
other games generally just normal unless it's obviously too easy
If you use mouselook, you are a faggot for not playing on UV. You are already giving yourself a massive advantage over the original controls and can't handle the hardest (non-joke) difficulty? But for boomer purists that play exclusively with the original fixed view controls, or even keyboard-only, they are allowed to play on easier difficulties. Doom was designed to be playable on this configuration.
>try to play desu EX: HR on hard
>cant even finish the first mission because i chose lethal like a fucking retard and guns dont fucking work even when aiming straight at the head with ADS
give me some fucking revolver ammo you cunts the pistol is useless
>Playing a Deus Ex game on Hard
You have to be insane, this difficulty turns enemies into massive bullet sponges while you are made of glass. This difficulty is solely for Ghost players, that avoid all combat and are never detected. This applies to all games of the series.
Better question, what engine?
UV, but it's kinda stupid that there's nothing between the mild challenge of UV and the absolute bullshit of Nightmare.
uv fast
Whatever is the hardest at the start of the game.
If there's a unlockable harder, I'll play that after.
But I'm in my 30s now so it's getting harder to focus and play.
Brutal doom on ultra violence in VR, of course
No. UV -fast is fucking nuts. Nearly 100% of maps are not designed around UV -fast, so it's less a "challenge" and more "total bullshit."
t. FPS veteran
i should always pick one down from the hardest but my autism makes me pick the hardest and I have to slog through it
no youre just bad
Nah eat shit you fucking toad. Post your 100% UV -fast of Caged.
>no ammo
>on UV
Are you missing shots?
I wasn't stocked, but i wasn't dead out of ammo fucktard
Hurt Me Plenty, usually, but I play vanilla Doom 1 on UV.
Dead ran out of ammo.on Ep3's start, ended up punching pinkies to death. Don't know what to tell you, bud.
>>no ammo
>>on UV
This only really happens in plutonia when pistol starting
In Doom or in general?
Personally, I play on Hurt Me Plenty because I'm obsessed with symmetry. That, and I just feel like normal difficulty is the best way to play the game.
>Implying Doom's AI isn't god tier for 1993
kys kid
So you couldnt even kill the fucking shotgunner right in front of you to kill the pinkies?
Hurt Me Plenty or on my first run through so I can get a feel for it, then Ultra-Violence to Nightmare when I want to hurt myself on the nextgo around,
But UV is the normal difficulty
You... did. And then lost souls.
What's your fucking problem, faggot? I beat the game on UV. Lay off and shove it up your fucking ass.
Watch out kid or I'll fuck your ass.
