So I just came across this. A mad genius has managed to port Doom to a Lego brick.

My 3 favourite creative mods for Doom this season are Going Down, Overboard, and My Home.pk3.

They just work so well.

Running DOOM on bacteria cell systems

ONE YEAR LATER, someone cracked the code to running Doom on bacterial wetware. Warning: current iteration has extremely low clock speed.

Ehh. In the idea, DOOM would be running on a traditional microcontroller of the feeder mechanism. The cells are just a display attached to it.

If people have been keeping up with the Unity ports, in recent times they've had Scientist, Trooper's Playground and good ol' SIGIL II added to Classic doom 1 and 2. I haven't tried Sigil 2 yet, something I've been meaning to do. Anyone else gave it a shot?

Doom player Decino gave both Sigil Wads a playthrough. There's some secrets that will close up if you don't sprint to them in the first 30 seconds, and Sigil 2 has some pretty mean Cyberdemons apparently.

Hello, Doom thread. Doom 2016 is currently less then 5 dollars on PS4, so I'm downloading that right now. I know the general consensus is that Eternal is even better, but that's not less then 5 dollars right now. tongue

I actually only played any Doom games for the first time last year, playing the original and Doom 64. Really enjoyed them, though. Sometimes you want a game where you just get to wreck stuff, you know?

Honestly, I think DOOM 2016 is better than Eternal overall. Eternal at its best is probably better than 2016 at least gameplay wise, but Eternal's gameplay at its worst is way worst than 2016 at its worst.

Like on a scale of 1 to 10, 2016's gameplay varies from 7 to 9. And Eternal varies from like 5 to 10.

Started it up. Gotta say, Doom's got a very visually awesome Mars.

Its a pretty classic take on Mars, yeah. Basically Doom 3's Mars, but spiffier. Sandy soils, orange skies, that kinda thing. But it works, that's for sure.

Missed a secret. Perfect run dead. If you choose to replay missions later in the game, do you get to do it with all the weapons and upgrades you've gained? Or are you set back to how you were back then?

You get to use everything you unlocked in the last mission when you replay levels.

And if you found and used Automap consoles it'll put icons for each secret on the map.

Also, don't forget to find all the classic levels too, they're a fun novelty. Sadly I think the classic levels are kinda lame in that they don't carry over your upgrades or weapons and there's a terrible ratio of Doom 1 to Doom 2o levels. Doom 2 only gets two levels compared to Doom 1's selection.

Are there multiple Automap consoles in some missions? I only found one in "Rip and Tear."

There should only be one in any given level.

Yeah, there's only ever one Automap console in each level, and it'll fill out the entire level map for you and point out secrets. Though it leaves the "how" up to you to figure out.

The classic level levers also blend into the background a fair bit.

Heavy Assault Rifle's kinda boring, but its better then the dinky pistol. (Even though the pistol has unlimited ammo). I feel like I'm probably missing secrets, but oh well, I'm not gonna sweat the completion too much. Although those upgrade points would be nice to have.

They didn't even bother with the pistol in Eternal.

Well, that's a thing that just happened. Looks promising?

Also, a prequel? Always fun when those give you more weapons and abilities than canonically later installments.

Dunno. Possibly.

Considering how we get wide shots of Argent D'Nur and the aesthetics of the technology in general, I'm willing to bet this is taking place after the Maykrs and the Deag priesthood sold out the Argenta people to Hell.

Some of the weapons look very metal.
