Comments : MAP01 (Entryway)
I don't think I need to comment about this one...
MAP25 (Bloodfalls)
A fairly simple level, I didn't have any real
problems with it. Although I could have done this
one better, I didn't feel like taking the time.
MAP28 (The Spirit World)
This one was tough at first, because I tried to do
the room with the Lost Souls, Revenants, and
Mancubus first, to get ammo, but then I realized
that I really didn't need the ammo in that room,
and I could go there later with better weapons.
When I realized that, the level was fairly easy.
MAP23 (Barrels O' Fun)
Ugh. That's what I said to myself when I saw that
this was the last level not in the base. So I
gritted my teeth, and tried it. I failed miserably
at first, because I used the technique I used to
beat this level in my Master exam, it didn't take
me long to realize that wouldn't work. I realized
that the key to winning this level is to kill the
Pain Elementals, everything else in the level is
easy. I then tried hiding in that room with the
teleporter, while waiting for a clear shot at the
Elementals, I eventually did it this way, but it
was frustrating, since it seems to be pure luck
whether the last Elemental comes to you, or if you
have to go out running down the hallway to get it,
risking being killed by the Lost Souls and Hell
Knights. Like I said, after I was able to kill the
Elementals, everything else was easy. I give this
one a Hard difficulty.
MAP08 (Tricks and Traps)
In his D2L text file, Jonathon Hoof says that MAP08
makes you do too much to make PAR feasible. Well, I
decided to show that it is rather easy to get PAR
on that level, I don't know why he didn't think
so... I know someone proved him wrong about MAP02,
but I don't know if anyone has done this one.
Author info : This is my second DHT title, I'm trying to complete
DOOM 2 Tyson without substituting level 6 now (yes
it can be done!), then Incubus after that.
