Comments: This is a VERY hard title to conquer, and is like
The difference between D1T and D2T. D2P is MUCH MUCH
harder, because of the harder levels and there are
more enemies you must know.
MAP 28: The Easiest map of 3 by far, because I am
invuln about 80% of the time. The harderst thing of
this level is to remember all the things you have to
do, like letting the demons out of the secret passage.
This level belongs in Easy.
MAP 19: A very long, very demanding level. This
level is on par with E2M7 pacifist style, even though
E2M7 is in the Doom hard set, and this is in the
Doom2 medium set. Only two keys are required, thank
God! The orange is by far the easiest to get, by
dragging the imps and demons away from it.
The 1st switch is by far the hardest part, but there
are some tricks to make it easier. Like standing
right in his face and blocking his movements when
he is targeting an imp. I froze the arach many times
just for the hell of it. Boy was it ever a temptation
to plunge my fist into his juicy vulnerable brain..:-)
Here's a trick! To beat the level, one MUST get the
Red key, but the lift to the red key is triggered by
shooting a wall panel right by some imps. The
first fifteen or so times I tried this, I hit imps.
So one time, I accidentally fell down, and found I
could trigger it from the bottom, though the demons
have a field day. If one can get the imps to hit the
demons, though, its not a problem.
This level borders on the hard/medium set
MAP 24: A very hard level made easy by Demonlord's
lv24-058.zip from compet-n. there are two hard spots:
the rails while the skulls are attacking, and the
Red key room. The red key room stopped me about
50-100 times, the skulls about 30 and other
stupid mistakes about 20, so I tried this level
about 150 times before I completed it. This level
is bordering on the Hard/Medium set.
Free interpretation: "To hell with pacifism!"
After doing both D1P6 and D2P6, I am a little fed up
with pacifism :-) So I let loose with the chainsaw
and make it almost 1/2way thru the 2nd level.
Cool. Authent at begin of 2nd lvl.
