1. Doom 2 Weapon Mods

A

A mod that recreates the weapons of Doom II for use in Starbound. Doom players may recognize these weapons as the 'pickup sprites' that disappear when players run over them; they were ripped from Doom II and edited to fit within Starbound's art style. So, in a real sense, most of the credit goes to the Id Software development team.

weapon is used by the player to attack opponents. It is displayed onscreen as part of the body of the player character to simulate a first person perspective. In Doom, it is the main aspect of the game action.

Each appears in the form of an item that, when picked up, provides the player with an additional weapon with which to attack opponents, as well as some ammo for the corresponding weapon. Normally, weapons are either placed in levels by the designers or dropped by dying opponents (such as zombies in the Doom games). Once a weapon is picked up during a game, any additional weapons of the same type will count only as ammunition.

Each weapon has advantages and disadvantages when used against a given monster. Broadly speaking, however, the larger weapons do more damage but are harder to find and harder to keep stocked with ammunition. In each game, one or two weak weapons require no ammo and are therefore always available.

In multiplayer co-op (In Doom I and Doom II) Since the game doesnt restart the level when any player dies and players can easily respawn, any weapons that were placed in the level won't dissappear after its been picked up. This allow this to be an infinite source for that kind of weapon. However this does not make it an infinite source for ammo. Because of this all available players can repeatedly pick the weapon up either during the first time in level in the current playthrough or to regain it after the player had respawned after their character died. Any weapons dropped by enemies will dissappear when pick up.

Doom games

No matter which weapon a player is wielding, his sprite (in multiplayer games, or source ports with a 'chasecam' mode) is perpetually shown to be armed with the same generic assault rifle as the former humans; a weapon similar to this, although presumably intended to be the chaingun, appears on the game's title screen.

Doom Alpha

Early alpha releases of Doom armed the player with a semi-automatic rifle, optionally equipped with a double-bladed bayonet as a melee weapon.^[1] This weapon was not included in the finished game. The rifle sprites revealed the player character to be wearing elbow pads, which can still be seen on the player character sprite. A few other weapons were also included in the alpha versions.

Doom

• Fists: Extremely basic close-range weapon. Never runs out of ammo, but only about as powerful as a pistol shot; normally used only as a last resort or with a berserk powerup.
• Chainsaw: Does damage like the normal fist, but four times faster.
• Pistol: The default long-range weapon. Almost entirely useless against anything stronger than a zombieman or shotgun guy.
• Shotgun: A good general-purpose weapon capable of dealing medium-high damage, especially at close range. Reload time is slightly longer than normal.
• Chaingun: Very good against large crowds of small monsters or single large monsters, but its rapid rate of fire can quickly deplete its ammo supply.
• Rocket launcher: Fires explosive rockets. Does a lot of damage, but can also seriously hurt the player if used indiscriminately at close range.
• Plasma gun: Shoots pulses of blue-hot plasma at high speed, which can take down groups of incoming enemies easily — if aimed properly.
• BFG9000: The 'Big Fucking Gun.' Somewhat counter-intuitive to operate at first, but kills almost any monster in one shot.

The chaingun and pistol both use the same ammo type (bullets), so using either will also affect the other in ammo. The shotgun and super shotgun (see below) also share their ammo pool (shells) as do the plasma gun and BFG9000, which both use cells.

Doom II

All of the above weapons, with the addition of:

• Super shotgun: A double-barrelled, sawed-off shotgun which takes even longer to reload, but at close range is even more deadly than the regular shotgun.

Doom 64

All of the above weapons, with the addition of:

• Unmaker: A demonic laser gun which rapidly fires paralyzing red slugs but can be upgraded in firepower by the collection of Demon Keys. The red slugs stun monsters, temporarily rendering them unable to attack for about 2-3 seconds. Monsters are still able to move, however.

Doom RPG

Doom RPG includes versions of the pistol, shotgun, super shotgun, chaingun, rocket launcher, plasma gun, and BFG9000, as well as two new weapons, the fire axe and fire extinguisher.

Doom 3

All of Doom's weapons are present in some form in Doom 3, with the addition of:

• Flashlight: Not a weapon per se, but it doubles as a crude club.
• Machine gun: Similar to the chaingun, but not as powerful (more accurate though).
• Grenades: Standard thrown fragmentation grenade on a timer.
• Soul cube: Charged by killing monsters, and then released as a powerful seeking weapon that transfers health from the monster it hits to the player.

Resurrection of Evil

The Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil expansion pack contains all of Doom 3's weapons except the Soul Cube and the Chainsaw, but introduces a version of the gravity gun called the Grabber, and includes the super shotgun (as in Doom II). It also introduces an artifact somewhat like the Soul Cube.

Doom 4

All of Doom 2's weapons with the addition of:

• Burst Rifle - Repeating rifle that fires three-round bursts. Multiplayer only.
• Frag Grenade - Hand held explosive weapon.
• Gauss Cannon - A weapon that fires a huge burst of energy forming a one shot kill.
• Heavy Assault Rifle: A machine gun like rifle that can have a missile pod attached to it.
• Hellshot - A semi-automatic hell-energy weapon. Secondary fire can cause flame damage over time. Multiplayer only.
• Hologram - A image projector of a still of the Doom Marine used to distract enemies.
• Kinetic Mine - A Multiplayer-only mine that when set up leaps at its victim when close enough.
• Lightning Gun - Short range energy weapon that fires a constant stream of electricity. Multiplayer only.
• Mark V Pistol - A Multiplayer-only chargeable pistol.
• Personal Teleporter - Multiplayer-only device used to teleport the player to where it is deployed.
• Reaper - Multiplayer-only weapon that unleashes six round bursts of energy
• Repeater - Multiplayer-only weapon that fires a burst of three rounds at a time.
• Shield Wall - a device that, when activated, creates a shield that neither enemies or projectiles can pass through.
• Siphon Grenade - The Siphon field created on impact leeches health from the enemies and returns it to the thrower.
• Static Cannon - Multiplayer-only weapon that charges up to deal more damage as the player moves around.
• Tesla Rocket - a device that uses electricity bolts to attack every enemy on its thrown path, slowing down as it passes.
• Threat Sensor - a device that, when thrown, attaches to a surface and highlights enemies within its radius.
• Vortex Rifle - Multiplayer-only sniper rifle.

Bethesda gave us an incredible first look at DOOM Eternal and while we are too busy drooling over the latest gameplay footage to be of much use to society, we realise that there may be many in the same boat as us as far as needing this game to come out. While we still have quite some time before we can don the role of the Slayer once more, there are some pretty sweet mods out there for PC players to dive back into the franchise they know and love.

Here are my top 5 picks for the DOOM mods you should check out while you not-so-patiently wait forDOOM Eternalto release.

'Everything in Brutal DOOM is extremely intense. Everything sounds louder, looks bigger, moves faster, and hits harder. You can even fell the impact of explosions. Enemies are harder and smarter, and weapons and explosions are much louder. Your weapons have been upgraded to a deadly arsenal, completely throwing the vanilla Doom's 'progressive weapon system' through the window. Every weapon is powerful and have it's pros and cons, a a weapon will never be outclassed when you find a new weapon, but only find a different use for different situations, making Brutal Doom more balanced and more strategic than Vanilla gameplay. You have new abilities too. With any weapon selected, you can press Q (default bind) to kick enemies at close range and send them away.'

The creator of this mod SGtMarkIv has both a Patreon and a Discord to gain access as well as talk about the adventures in Brutal DOOM.

Slide 2 of 5DOOM Mod Mocks Loot Crate Controversy In The Best Way Possible

Unless you've been living under a rock, by now everyone is sick and tired of hearing the term 'loot boxes'. Whether it is being fed up with the practice of abusing them, or people just tired of hearing about it - there's no denying that microtransactions have taken center stage. With EA's Star Wars Battlefront IIleading the charge, many gamers are finding their own ways to have their voice heard. One hilarious means to do that is with the latest DOOM mod that makes fun of all of the shenanigans in the best way possible.

Doom 2 Weapon Mods

EA may have pulled back their usage of loot crates, but this DOOM mod is not pulling punches. The DOOM Loot Box Mod created by Rip and Tear is a hilarious response to the weird state of the gaming community at present. The mod itself takes the 1993 FPS that we all know and love and replaces the weapon drops with loot boxes. Said loot boxes can only be opened with randomly dropped keys recovered from enemy corpses, but they are definitely few and far between. To further mock the rising practice in gaming, players can partake in a newly added in-game marketplace in order to purchases said keys (though with fake money, they aren't EA).

The mod itself can be seen in the first few levels of the game in the video below. 'Welcome to the marketplace' to see the loot box interpretation for yourself. To download the mod, simply support the modder's site right here.

There's this mod that will be worth some attention to long-time DOOM fans, especially those that also happen to be Overwatch addicts. That’s because the mod known as OverDOOM allows you to use some very familiar weapons in the game, so you can really clean house on those demons.

As you can see from the video above, the big highlight is D.Va’s mech, which you can hop into to do some major damage to enemies. It even scoots around at the same speed as her actual mech in Overwatch, which is an impressive feat, to say the least.

The video, posted by DrUberWaffles,also features an array of other familiar weapons, including Widowmaker’s sniper rifle, Lucio’s green glowing gun, a bow, throwing stars, and plenty of others to choose from.

But then we go right back to the mech, which is amazing when it comes to turning the tide against overwhelming demon forces. Not only do the side cannons help out in a pinch, but the maneuverability allows for better targeting.

The footage is short but sweet, and gets right to the point when it comes to the fun you could have with the mod. All you need to do is visit this page to download it,and then hit the ground running with the Overwatch weapons of choice. While the original game still can’t be beat, this should keep you busy for a while, especially if you’re in the mood for nostalgic gaming with a twist.

Slide 4 of 5Customization Unlocked

Sometimes you just gotta get in there and customize the crap out of your game play. But for those that have already made their initial run in 2016's DOOM, there's a new mod that is simple but effective when getting all of those unlocks.

According to creator 'CombatXtreme':

'This mod unlocks all colour and pattern variants, for weapons and armour, and also unlocks all armour skins and pieces for use in the DOOM Beta. This means you no longer have to unlock all of these pieces through leveling up, which is actually impossible because there are only 15 levels in the Beta. Other people without this mod can play with modded people without any problems, and you'll see each others armour and weapons without problems. This version of the mod is for the open beta, and will unlock the new taunts. It won't crash on the closed alpha or beta, just nothing will happen.'

Look, I don't care what you have to say - Super Mario was the business. But hey, so was DOOM so it's only natural that the two should inevitably - and weirdly - meet. The Super Mario Doom World mod comes from modder 'Tatsurdcacocaco' and brings the best of both worlds into one smooth experience.

According to the creator, 'A famous game meets another famous game. You will witness the chaotic world. This is a play video of Doom which is a video game with mario characters. The stage of this video was made for myself. I also used 'smdremix.wad'(wad title is 'Super Mario Doom Remix') and 'zbooldpak.wad' for this movie.'
