I know how to kill a guy quicker in doom3 :)

Robert McClelland · Aug 9, 2004, 03:58 AM

Shoot the guy in the nuts three times and you take him down very quick instead shooting him in the chest. lol

digerati · Aug 9, 2004, 04:12 AM

Is it just me or do head shots not do anything in terms of extra damage? lol

just use "give all" and give the BFG or rocket launcher whirl

MythicaL · Aug 9, 2004, 04:23 AM

I don't really like BFG that much for some reason... maybe because there is no explosion

Did you charge it? all the way up? you have to hold the fire buttion down (but not to long) watch your guns indicator

Lchevy79 · Aug 9, 2004, 05:03 AM

well i noticed head shots doing more damage

They do a little bit more damage, same with torso shot compared to a limb shot. Depends on the creature as well.

That happens when a monster shoots your projectile, try firing out of a monster's line of fire (but still at the monster), like at an imp's left arm...kinda lead him...you know?

MythicaL · Aug 9, 2004, 05:08 AM

Yeah I know but by explosion I meant an actual explosion like you get from barrels or something.

Geminiwave · Aug 9, 2004, 05:44 AM

I like big booms too. I have to say that the rocket launcher is an awesome weapon.

The only other weapon that I find okay is the shotgun...the macheine guns feel like toys when I play...

MSX · Aug 9, 2004, 09:04 AM

<- Likes to shoot enemies projectiles.

Though in D3 the best strategy is to get in close so they try and bite you and dodge and pump em with the shottie or the chainsaw.

Hehe, same here, and with the zombies and the chainsaw, you can just walk right through them with it and not even slow down

Ferret_Style · Aug 9, 2004, 07:38 PM

head shot with shotty is a nice short quick killer!

Nacht · Aug 10, 2004, 01:45 AM

no way, the best way to go is a chainsaw spree...you will actually kill people alot faster than you think, and if you learn how to use it, take way less damage.

reno · Aug 10, 2004, 03:45 AM

Chainsaw doesn't work well against:

Revenants,
Cacodemons,
Archviles,
Bosses,
Chaingun commando,
Players,
Mancubii.

But man, the plasma rifle, chaingun and shotgun are my faves...mmm...mmm...

The BFG makes a huge, green explosion. Just like it always has, what more do you want?

Nacht · Aug 10, 2004, 04:49 AM

i like the way the plasma rifle looks

Robert McClelland · Aug 10, 2004, 05:04 AM

Maybe I should change thread to Doom3 what guns you get or your favor

lol.....I haven't gotten that far compared to some of you guys i guess. But so far my fav. gun is the shotgun.

well, the easiest way to kill monsters is by the up close and personal way i think. But still gotta be careful not to get too friendly w/the monsters

.

Ronin | Eru · Aug 11, 2004, 04:23 PM

How to kill quickly? Just wait until they're too close...and pump your shotgun into their head!

OMG...are you insane? Have you played Doom 1 or 2? How much more Doom can you get than the BFG? That gun was killer in those two games.

Neon, you disappoint me!

I've played them both .. I don't remember the BFG

classic_leon · Aug 12, 2004, 06:08 AM

flagellate the corpse.

reno · Aug 12, 2004, 03:41 PM

Well, gee Neon, didn't get too far...did ya?

If you can somehow procure a copy of Doom 1 or Doom 2 (the full games, not demoes) just type in IDKFA and press "7." You'll be graced with a giant BFG.

But don't take my word for it:

This was taken from Ultimate Doom using Doomsday and the high quality packs (really HQ aint it? heh...). Doomsday doesn't modify the original game wads except give everything a facelift using the Quake 2 engine. And here is the BFG after IDKFA in level 1 of Doom. Just for demonstration purposes

.

Nacht · Aug 12, 2004, 09:45 PM

dude, that doesnt look like doom at all...doom had all flat char and gun sprites.

but the bfg was in doom 1 originally, sorry neon.

MSX · Aug 12, 2004, 11:46 PM

... he said it was doomsday. Which is an update to the old program. http://www.doomsdayhq.com/

There is also Zdoom. But its not as impressive.

Speaking of oldschool: Tenebre http://tenebrae.sourceforge.net/ (support is limited but it's still kinda cool)

Nacht · Aug 13, 2004, 12:52 AM

i know what he said, im just stating that it doesnt look like doom at all...

doom legacy is my favorite new engine

reno · Aug 13, 2004, 06:04 AM

Doomsday looks WAY cooler in motion.

Ah screw it, I made a really cool video (not really) of me playing and added credits and stuff, but to look anything decent it needs to be over 10 megs in a WMV...boo.

Doomsday is neato.

You couldn't get the BFG in the first level shareware version - you had to register, but the original Doom definitely introduced the BFG ... not the "Big Friendly Giant" of a similar era, but the "Big F***ing Gun" - perhaps FBG would have been a better acronym.
