Really enjoyed it. Hopefully we can look forward to some singleplayer DLC.

How long did you take to beat the final boss? I spent an hour last night and got close but run out of ammo on everything except pistol and died. I know what to do but just can't nail it with the ammo i have

Upgraded my PC recently and picked this up along with it. Loved the return of Wolfenstein with The New Order and I'm just as impressed with this, so much fun. :D

I did it on my third attempt. It crashed the first time and I died the second. I was only playing on the Normal difficulty though.

I tried to whittle it down with normal weapons at first, then as it got towards the end BFG'd it. It should drop some ammo from time to time that pretty much refills you though.

I yelled out in celebration when it appeared :slol: Genuinely thought they'd left it out.


I didn't realise at first they have a weak spot on their tail. Trying to complete the Halls of the Damned Classic map without that knowledge was very tricky I must say! :shifty:

:o

Quite unbelievable but I think I just figured this out during my latest session! I was circling one in a narrow space, it still managed to charge me but missed and hit a wall (d'aww :wub:), then for some reason (for some reason = years of playing video games :slol:) I thought to myself Shoot it in the back, dummy, I did and it unexpectedly staggered! I didn't stop to think about it but now, after reading your post, I will definitely try it again. Ta for the heads up/confirmation.

Playing on hurt me plenty and that's how it was for me.

So that spider thing is the final boss?! Wasn't expecting that. I WANNA KILL MORE HELLSPAWN!

Half way through the fight I realised it too was yet another enemy I'd seen in screenshots many, many years ago. Not as near and dear to me ol' Pinky, but was still cool nonetheless.

Credits were *supoib*. Sat through 'em all (traditional ones rolling now but not paying attention to 'em :lol:), every dev should do credits like that.

It's evil Spider Mastermind!. It's a shame we never saw the smaller ones though. But like I said before I'm absolutely buzzing for some single-player DLC and they left it wide open for some. :nod:

Most of the people said it's a hint for another sequel as General Hayden sent you back to the hell which it leads to the credits showing the Doom guy fighting some more monsters.

Oh right. I just assumed it was some random diorama style shots, especially the one that echoed the original game artwork. The ending itself isn't exactly mysterious or vague though as it's very clear that there's more to come. Can't wait. Gotta kill me someSamuel Hayden (I'm actually a bit annoyed you never got to rip Olivia to bits).

I didn't have an issue with Samuel Hayden. As morally ambiguous as his actions are, his intentions regarding solving an energy crisis seem fairly clear throughout the piece.

I couldn't give a gooseberry fool about the story, but Hayden's voice sounds strawberry floating awesome. The distortion effects are strawberry floating class.

Well, this is an amazing game. I'm having an absolute blast.
Quick question though: do I have to complete the game first to revisit old levels and mop up secrets with my current gear, or can I just do it now from the level select?

Mop up via level select. (Photo mode works in this mode only, also.) Any bonuses gained will then appear in your main save game!

Btw, there is no NG+ of any description. Hell, you can't even continue from final autosave once you best final boss. Keep that in mind if you're after any of the <complete objective in single playthrough> trophies.
