>What if every time the player gets shot by a powerful projectile in Doom, we put a giant red screen that blinds him for a solid 3 seconds, making the damaged player even more vulnerable and defenseless?

seems fair to me if you can't avoid a rocket
this is the doom equivalent of your weapons bouncing off walls in the souls games while the enemies do not
You gotta learn to avoid the projectiles ya jadrool
Unironically brilliant because you can register taking damage faster in your brain from the red tint on the screen more than looking at the HP value which is more abstract.
Sound cues work even faster. There's no good reason to obscure the screen for that.
>OW OW OW OW OW OW OW OW OW OW
>*dies*
Reminds me that Halo 2's hud was brilliant because the shield meter is above your radar, and most players will pay attention to at least one of those; in Halo 2 you will see both
I've seen tons of people getting filtered by Doom 3's screen shaking, but b***hing about red screen tint is something else.
Also is right, the timing of red screen is perfectly calculated. Unnoticable when you make tiny mistakes like eating imp's fireball, more prevalent for serious cases like point-blank shotgun blast. Half-second bright red is only for real big frickups (cyber rocket).
>not wearing shades 24/7
>Get hit
>Your health level drops
carmack is a HACK
>demons have pain state
>doomguy has pain state
Quit being a b***h and don't get hit.
Demons also have an iq of 5 and are in great number, while doomguy is just one. Should you have brain damage and somehow multiply your doomguy to even it out?
moron
Mate sorry to break the news but if you can't dodge a rocket coming right at you then your IQ must not be much higher than that of a demon.
Muscle memory= high iq
unironically moronic and completly missed the point
>see the rocket coming at you
>gosh I know I should move to the left due to my IQ being higher than the average person, but my muscle memory is just not up to a scratch to push a move button fast enough so I can avoid it
Anon, you are moronic and shite at videogames.
If it was so easy to avoid rockets, the cyberdemon wouldn't be one of the main bosses of the game
If it was so easy to avoid rockets, the cyberdemon would be infamous for being the easiest enemy in the game, if not in all of gaming
Besides, while it is easy to avoid 1 rocket coming from one direction, it definitely isn't easy to avoid 10 rockets coming from 10 different directions, like in Plutonia and fan made maps.
Furthermore, I could 100% eat your ass in quake 1v1. Criticizing a game mechanic doesn't equal being bad at it.
>b-b-b-but
Cyberdemon rockets are easy to avoid, that's why they've put Lost Souls on the arena with him in the first game and gave you a big open space so you won't feel overwhelmed regardless
>b-b-but...
Nobody is saying that Cyberdemon is hard either, that's exactly why they put a bunch of them together when they are making
>Plutonia and fan made maps
and put a bunch of shit in a room with them to make it even harder
>b-b-b-b-b-b-b-but...
"Yeah, avoiding one Goomba is easy, but what if there was a map where there were 100 Goombas and they would come at you from 10 different directions?"
>b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-but multiplayer?????
had a great kek about that one, thanks for that
you said nothing. kys. I won't waste my time with you.
>that's why they've put Lost Souls on the arena with him in the first game and gave you a big open space so you won't feel overwhelmed regardless
they put enemies in every boss battle. That is nothing new.
>that's exactly why they put a bunch of them together when they are making
And it becomes a shitshow of unfair red screen
>ah, avoiding one Goomba is easy, but what if there was a map where there were 100 Goombas and they would come at you from 10 different directions?"
Goomba and cyberdemons aren't the same.
>had a great kek about that one, thanks for that
Want to 1v1?
samegay
>I could 100% eat your ass in quake 1v1
hahahahaha
Want to 1v1?
yeah what game
Blood

I can barely even do low tier slaughtermaps to completion and battling multiple Cyberdemons simultaneously is fricking easy. Clear the cyberdemons in GO 2 It with only your rocket launcher. Or better yet do it with only a shotgun, not even the SSG. If you go in flying with the BFG you'll nuke the frick out of them at lightning speed. I make it a habit to clear GO 2 It every few months, and each cyberdemon fight is easy, barring only the one in the narrow cramped hallway.
Clear E2 M8 with just the pistol, max ammo allowed. Clear it with Shotgun, then chaingchanging. Clear maps that have more than one cyberdemon. Without BFG the Spider mastermind us infinitely harder than the cyberdemon because it's hitscan auto shotgun "super chaingun".
Cyberdemon is always easy.
Cyberdemon was definitely not used in any particularly difficult manner in any of the original iD maps, but I think he has his utility if you think about what he can. I've played maps where multiple of them stalk you through a narrow labyrinth, and it's sweaty as FRICK, because you have so little room to dodge if you get in their line of fire.
Then there's that one map in Doom 64 which is a huge set of stairs in like the shape of an 8, and you've got this Cyberdemon chasing you, and what makes that level bust my ass is that every couple other steps teleports the bastard around effectively randoly so he can basically be anywhere at any moment.
Intelligence is defined as the ability to adapt to a situation. You failed that.
Uhh yes sure bro. Here's a thought why don't you play on "I'm too young to die" difficulty next time. That way a high IQ player such as yourself will have plenty of time to weigh your options about what to do when a rocket comes flying at your face.
>Demons also have an iq of 5 and are in great number, while doomguy is just one
If they're so dumb why are you eating rockets? Whiny b***h.
A toddler with a rocket launcher still dangerous
Your post shows the average iq of this board.
>can't beat a 3 year old in deathmatch
This is a problem with you, not the game.
The level of moronation, oh god.
>zoom to the zoom zoom
Stick to CoD and shut the frick up then. If you're not fishing for (You)s I don't know what else to tell ya
Games like Blood and duke nukem don't have to rely on cheap mechanics. Saying "lol zoomer XD" isnt an argument. Thinking every game from the 90s is exactly like this just reveals how much of an underage homosexual you are.
The frick are you talking about? Have you played Blood recently? It's Hitscan: The game.
100% fair. Hitscan isn't a bad thing when you have competent devs and very overpowered weapons( especially the shotgun and the tnt)
They are even CHEAPER, please kys, duke's bosses are cheap cheeseable shit, enemies are mostly hi damage hitscanners because of their clunky ai, nothing even comes close to the revenant's wonderful rockets
Sounds like a great idea, I bet it'll make NEETs on an anime forum mald in 30 years
I have a suggestion, don’t play on Nightmare, it’s a joke difficulty.
>punish the player for playing poorly
>reward the player for playing well
As it should go
Losing health should be the punishment.
Why don't you just fricking cope? Nobody else has complained about this but you, countless people have made it through Final Doom on UV but you can't deal with a tiny inconvenience like slightly reduced vision?
I'm not OP.
Unique doesn't equal good.
Doesn't matter.
>nobody else has complained about this
>that's not true
>doesn't matter
lol
My only issue with Doom and FPSs in general is head bobbing. I find it completely unnecessary, but at least it can be turned off easily.
Some people find it nausea inducing, so I guess it's nice that GzDoom lets you adjust viewbob and weaponbob, including to zero. Does any other port of Doom do that?
OP you sound like a pussy. I bet if I grabbed your ass you wouldn't do anything about it.
I would show you my bussy and you would frick me hard with the big greasy wiener you have.
stop posting
So you are backing off now? Come here and let me suck you dry
t. Never played Breakdown.
That was actually a big help when I was playing through TNT on my friend's computer which didn't have any sound at all.
Obscuring the player's sight is a great way to awaken their survival instincts because it's about the most important of the senses.
Jealous of John Carmack the thread
getting flashbanged by a line of powerups is worse
just don't get hit bro, works for me
What if you changed your life and stopped being a waste of a human being who made homosexual threads?
It would increase the excitement and encourage you to not get hit. Especially if it only happened on particularly brutal high-damage attacks. Well done, John&John.
