Don't you just love finding a secret room full with good stuff to use?

>>4109110
Regarding you wanting to emulate duke3d's shotgun behavior with the pellets not penetrating enemies, i loaded up duke with a hunch and sure enough I found something there. The lack of penetration is a function of the enemy ai and not of the weapon. Duke's baddies stay solid until the last frame of their death animation, throughout which they impede your movement and you can push them at a small cost of speed, but they also retain their shootable property at the same time which is what stops the bullets, and not just the shotgun bullets either.

328KB, 720x360px

I feel like I should add some sort of warning or signal when he's getting ready to shoot this at you, I tried putting the bone hand in front of the arm cannon before he shoots using A_warp stuff but it looks awkward at other angles.

You guys got any ideas? The other one I was thinking of is some kinda laser sight.

>>4110905

have the grapple pop up and then like, open and close, you know like he's showing it off, and then have it shoot, like have the sprite appear before it shoots

>>4110912
That'd have the same problem as I have right now, it'd look bad at other angles, plus I only have an open hand sprite.

>>4110905
laser sights usually imply something high damage and immediate
snipers/missiles and the like

does the hand sprite only have one rotation?

>>4110914
Full rotations, and to be fair this hookshot is going to be bad news when I'm done with it, it'll hurt you and drain an odd amount of ammunition from you on hit.

>>4110905
How about something like Quadraxis's laser sighting in MP2 before it fires

>>4110913

you might just have to go the way of old arcade games and give him like a flash or color change or something to show that he's going to do it

>>4110905
I would leave it the way you have it in the webm. The pause he does while lining up his aim states pretty well that he isn't going to launch a conventional ranged attack (unless he pauses identically for those) and that competent players should think about evasion. It reminds me of the green enemy guarding the helmet upgrade in mega man x, except I don't remember it ever pulling you back with it's claw.

>>4110905

Some sort of sound cue? Like a click shortly before it fires or something.

What if you made the barrel of the gun and maybe some of the lines on top glow in a color that corresponds to the type of projectile he's going to fire?

>>4110954
I try to avoid doing color based warnings because I'm colorblind, plus having an actualy thing that pops up and fucks with the silhouette of the monster feels like it's more effective in telling the player that something is happening.

>>4110949
>>4110951
just splice it into the sprite itself as an extra frame?

Trying Arcane Dimensions. I only played Quake with the default engine and darkplaces before.

So I installed Quakespasm and put AD 1.5 in it. When I start it seems to be some kind of hub where I choose maps?

What about those new AD maps I heard about? Should I download them into the AD folder and they will show up in this hub? or they are loaded apart on their own (why would they be AD maps if that was the case)?

Also I remember reading somewhere AD needed a custom engine or something, what about that?

>playin doom 2 megawad
>the nazi soldiers are reskinned to be a scientist/alien/soldier/etc

always makes me sqee

>>4110993
Anyone can add and make new maps for AD, the additional maps just won't show up in the hubs and you'd have to load them via the console. And yes, they'd have to be extracted into the AD folder. For more AD maps, go to quaddicted and search for maps with the "arcane dimensions" tag.

The Forgotten Sepulcher is a special case and is an official map which will show up in the 1.5 hub once you add it because it was originally meant to be released with 1.5 but just got delayed. This is also the map that requires the specialized build of Quakespasm because it breaks a lot of limits due to how large it is.

You can find download links to the Sepulcher map and the necessary QS build to run it here:

>>4111004
>play Doom 2 megawad
>the nazi soldiers are occasionally used in regular maps

>>4111005
I think I get most of it now.

Can I use that special version of Quakespasm for everything else so I don't have two engines hanging around, or is it better to use the normal 0.92.1 version for the other maps?

>>4111020
>Can I use that special version of Quakespasm for everything else so I don't have two engines hanging around

It is the RC1 of next version of the Slomo Bullettime mod. Its pretty much ready and fully operational with all its new features. All that is left is just doing a good ol' QA playtest before final release. I expect no bugs at all, but you never know.

Have fun, I'm really proud of this one.

>>4110784
any way to do that in gzdoom?

seeing as death can occur without referencing a painstate, and it seems to be hardcoded that as soon as it hits a deathstate it becomes non-shootable even if it is still solid

Actual Slomo. The real deal. No choppy sound effects either.

That said, it is super customizable, you can tweak the slomo a LOT. You can make it into a time freeze, slomo, extended slomo, have cooldowns, freeze momentum during slomo, allow sounds and music to play during slomo and many other things.

This shit is fucking lit man.

>>4111108
When considering that Black Warrior was known for implementing actual slow-mo, this sounds promising. Will give it a try.

Thanks. The whole purpose of this mod is to be a universal addon that can be used with any other mod or vanilla game.

I've played a few campaigns so far with the previous versions and its been a great addition. Its especially great with any gameplay or monster mod that adds 3d sfx, like smoke, fire and gore.

>>4111126
From what I hear they're actually pretty decent.

>>4111101
> though this just gave me an idea for how to give monsters 100% painstate chances without it actually interrupting their attacks

Give them a counter when they start to attack, then remove the counter when they finish the attack. If they go to painstate and they have that counter, it jumps to the end of the painstate and there's a TNT1 with "goto missile+X" reference which resumes the attack. Though at the end of the painstate just before that normally there would be a goto-see reference as usual.

Is there a community like this but with people that do maps instead of just gameplay thingies? Or are mappers too adult for places like 4chan and prefer to work on their own / with their buttbuddies and then release on doomworld?

Ive never made maps for doom in the entire time ive been playing it, since 1994.

Ive always focused on some sort of mod for the things in it - whether it was just graphics or weapons stuff or other gameplay later on as scripting became feasible.

I have an idea for a retro style game that incorporates a combination of features between tile based production (similar to rise of the triad) and some vector based effects.

It would be far, far easier and more effective and would achieve most of the same benefits.

In other words I don't give a shit about (learning) doom's map design specifications because it sucks. Tell me when the source ports start enabling quake-style full 3d brush mapping.

Is the pistol in doom chambered for 308 winchester nato or is the chaingun chambered for 9mm?

>>4111303 (Me)
>winchester nato
I don't think I pressed delete enough.

>>4111303
The chaingun is probably a pistol caliber given how weak it (relatively) is.

Which is why having a subgun in place of the chaingun would make a bit more sense to me.

>>4111269
because it would need to be in doom due to the desired monsters, weapons, and having 3 keys instead of two. Among other things.

>>4111323
You can DIY your own keys through spinning props and delayed creation of triggers, they just won't show up on the HUD.

>>4111303
>>4111321

The pistol and chaingun are probably some pdw caliber for reliable armor penetration (all the soldiers are wearing armor). It may be a beretta but that doesn't mean it has to be the usual kind (or even be a beretta).

Not 5.7mm but you can take 45s and neck them down to 9mm or 10mm for alot of firepower. The magazines in the game are pretty low capacity too (10 rounders it seems).

Then again in the alpha game the pistol was actually a rifle, so originally it was likely planned that they'd both shoot rifle rounds (5.56mm since thats what our military uses).

I wish I could get into that creative frenzy again right about now.

was romero ultimately not responsible for doom's success? I mean, he did endorse brutal doom and did develop daikatana

>>4111567
Both of those are true, but I think that simply equating Doom's success to one person is misleading. Romero was certainly a big part of it, since he designed 8 out of the 9 levels for Knee Deep in the Dead. Since those parts of the game were the parts that so many people got to see for free, I do think he did a lot.

>>4111567
>was romero ultimately not responsible for doom's success?
Romero was part of a team effort, he is responsible but that responsibility is split across the rest of the team members as well.

>he did endorse brutal doom and did develop daikatana
The first is incorrect and the second has nothing to do with Doom's success.

Romero's a great designer, but he is just one man. And like all great designers, he's just as prone to mis-stepping as everyone else.

>>4112053
Do you mean compared to Doom? Difficulty of making assets. Most people will agree it's a lot easier to make graphical assets for a sprite-based game where, while the workload might seem heavy due to the number of frames, people are more willing to stuff it out because they can see what it'll look like in-game as they're working on it, and can tweak things frame by frame. The jump to Quake means you've gotta learn 3D modeling and texturing, which is a big wall to leap- and then to actually make things work the way you want them to, you've gotta delve into QuakeC.

Did Doom really had "intestines" or were those intended to be snakes or tentacles?

>>4112101
it's called snake but the coloring makes it look fleshy, but it looks tentacle-y

Methinks it was made from a picture of snakes, but it's supposed to be like giant intestines spawned by the hell's influence. Basically the same stuff you see in Doom 3.

Its easy to replace everything in doom.

Its hard to replace anything in quake without some heavy coding knowledge. Some guy was trying to put a new weapon in quake recently in these threads, I think he managed to get a single weapon in after a few weeks, but never saw much after that. Not sure what happened to him or his project.

>>4112487
Quake - Atmosphere, actual 3D level design, dark gritty colors and enemies. Music is much better than doom's MIDI metal covers. An actual lighting system that casts shadows. Better multiplayer.

I assume we're just talking about the game in the box and not any add-ons or mods.

If I had to play either vanilla doom or vanilla quake it would be quake every time.

I wish people would stop misunderstanding the weapon dynamics in Quake, since "not like muh SSG" tends to be one of the main issues people seem to have with the game.

>>4112487
i like doom a lot more, the only reason why is because even after all these years i still can't get used to how shitty quake's shotgun and double barreled shotgun are

>>4112518

I rather like Quake's dynamic with the shotgun/super shotgun, to be honest.
It's nice to have a weaponset's emphasis on something other than the shotguns, and it makes the RL/lightning gun stand out even more.

oh boy, right after you say it.

I don't quite get it? In Quake you fight fewer monsters, therefore, they have more health, it's very simple, the focused encounters are really fun anyway, since it feels more like a series of direct battles with specific creatures than mowing down hordes of undead, which is great too, but ultimately Quake just has a different pace/style

>>4112520
The magic is in the instant weapon swapping. You can go from blasting monsters from afar with the RL to quickly finishing them off with the double barrel, or stunning someone and finishing it off with a good axe smack, and all without losing a second of momentum.

You know, everytime someone complains about the Quake double barrel, I'll complain abut the Doom chaingun, and how crappy it is compared to the super nailgun.

Totally unfair comparison that ignores how the game balance works, but hey, so is comparing the Quake DB shotgun to the SSG.

>>4111698
Which Quake map/mapset is this from?

>>4112524
when you put it like that i can see how i've played it wrong for years, i usually played it like doom and that's probably why i have a lot more trouble with it than doom. i still like quake though, it's not like the shotgun or double barrel made it unplayable or anything since every other weapon makes up for it, i mean they are the first weapons you get after all

>>4112487

>>4112487
while I admittedly love both, I find quake to be the more fun game overall. that's discussing vanilla exclusively.

vanilla quake aged like fine wine, doom i find myself in need of a facelift mod like smooth doom or something to pull through with, otherwise I get burned out really really quickly. I like quake's general snappiness and grittiness, doom is just far too cartoony and slippery for me. like I somehow have no control at all. never got fully used to it.

it's funny how i still hold this opinion after all this time.

I always thought that Doom was the one that was more tactical (slow start up movement, slow weapon switch) and had quicker and less forgiving deaths than Quake especially because of Doom's shotgun guys, explosions from barrels, cyberdemon rockets and your own rockets, and arch viles. Also, the armor in Doom absorbs only 1/3 damage, whereas Quake has armors that absorb 60% and 80% damage.

They sometimes have discussions like this on /k but its worthy to get into here too.

I like the .40 super but fact is you could neck down a .45 to a 9mm and it might pack up to 44 mag levels of firepower. Technically its a .45 winchester magnum cut down and necked, but the case is still the same profile (its got a thicker base internally).

Whatever you put in that could be armor piercing, supercavitating, sabot, etc.

The problem is magazine capacity but if you're not expecting too much problems (on mars) and you only occasionally get an "anomaly" coming through the gate, its much better to have a common ammunition between all your weapons just like they did in Black Mesa.

Why not use 9mm since that kills the man good enough and only incapacitates him if it doesn't? Maybe the project facilitators knew something with abit more push might be necessary coming into it.

Or maybe in case of rogue ops or a mutiny they wanted to make sure body armor wasn't going to be effective (sure the security armor will stop it, but the leg/arm sleeves wont).

The disparity between why the chaingun uses the same magazines as the pistol can be solved that maybe it feeds from several at the same time and just kicks them out when it empties one of them (I can see it having 4 magazines stuck in the bottom and they just drop off and he slams another one in and doesnt even have to charge the weapon).

Or maybe those green ammo boxes have a 50 round drum.

And as for why they'd use a 4 barreled chaingun instead of just a machinegun: fire rate is not the issue. You can make the barrels thinner since they're air cooled now and you have 4 of them to distribute barrel wear between. Also a chain driven mechanism makes loading and extraction very, very reliable (this gun will NOT jam).

> but senpai chaingunners have belts of ammunition, you can see it right on their sprite

Its abit too technical to consider seriously. Doomguy also has an SMG in the splash art.

Is there a command in quake to disable the "angling" of the screen when you strafe? I'm not referring to cl_bob, which I already put to 0.

Not without the same bullet weight, .44 Magnum generally ranges from 240gr to as heavy as 340gr, that's a pretty heavy bullet.

While you could surely get some pretty impressive performance out of .40 Super, the lower weight will make it fall short in terms of penetration (particularly against hard/rigid surfaces and media).

I think comparing it to .41 Magnum loads would be more suitable (which isn't shabby, mind you).

I just reason that those shotguns are some off-caliber like 28 gauge or some shit. Its not that the shotguns are weak, its that they're not 12 gauge, which makes them (actually) weak. How many shotgun shells can he carry anyway? 100?

> why does everyone assume that a shotgun is 12 gauge whenever they see it in a vidya
> IRL even double barreled shotguns are much more likely to be 20 gauge

Story plot I can come up with is that if anybody on the research or security team goes bonkers a lighter load is more likely to incapacitate somebody rather than kill them.

And the double barreled shotgun was sorta a niche thing that veteran security guys would carry around in case of real trouble since they weren't allowed access to the weapons the Enforcers used (ie, all the good shit).

That sounds like it would be many times more complex than the feed/delinker on an actual M134 Minigun

>And as for why they'd use a 4 barreled chaingun instead of just a machinegun: fire rate is not the issue. You can make the barrels thinner since they're air cooled now and you have 4 of them to distribute barrel wear between
It's more that a Gatling system being pretty much built on the idea of not only a high rate of fire, but also less heat build up, which, for the rate of fire that the Doom chaingun fires at, is basically a non-sequitur.

It has a rate of fire of maybe not even 600rpm, divide that by six for each barrel and that's 100rpm, which, sure, makes it so that you could sustain fire for a really long time and the gun wouldn't overheat, but where would that ever be a necessity? It could probably fire thousands of rounds without interruption and not get very warm, but you don't even do that in Doom. Half the barrels would do the same thing effectively, at significantly lower weight, but even then the rate of fire doesn't make sense for such a complex setup.

A recoil or gas operated SMG with a thick and finned barrel would handle quite a lot of heat, and if you needed it to handle heat even further, it could be made to fire from an open bolt, which would improve cooling and entirely avoid heat cook-offs.
Something similar to the H&K MP5 or Sig MPX could easily do the same things you'd realistically want from an SMG, just use them as a starting point, scale them up for .40 Super

Unfortunately im going to have to go with Quake and the answer is because of the much more gritty "horror movie" like presentation of it. For various reasons people have explained (feels like direct encounters, moody music, the map architecture and more dynamic environment).

However I wish we could've had more music with it. I also wish there was a better superweapon in the game... Quad+Thunder is devastating but it was also quite situational. I would've been okay with a Cluster Mine that popped a bunch of fucking grenades everywhere when it was tripped off, but you only had one of them.

Taking Silent Hill's approach would've been better in terms of music composition... in sum total the music from that game only took up like 30Mb even though it was CD quality. The trick being that it was composed much like MIDI except instead of midi instrumentation each instrument was a short 3-10 second long audio clip. Since the same kinds of tones and trail-offs were often used repeatedly.

Consider that without the cd music Quake 1 is a paltry sum (30mb?) and they could have included many more levels for the game and more music.

For example outside the normal campaign they could have had a Survival Mode that also would've been perfect for co-op or deathmatch play. Some string of like 30 maps that the designers could have poured all of their unrequited creative and devious urges into that didn't make sense for the normal campaign maps.

> just imagine if it had this... in the 4E start room you drop onto the rafters and go in the alcove, but instead of the nightmare difficulty leading back to the start room... it leads to the Survival Mode levels.

Overall as much as I like Quake (despite the goofy way the rocket launcher looks)...

I feel like it was kinda Rushed, like they just did it good enough to get it out the door.

>>4113565
>if anybody on the research or security team goes bonkers a lighter load is more likely to incapacitate somebody rather than kill them
That seems like a gigantic liability for numerous reasons.

For one there'd be so many wrongful death suits (using a lethal weapon in an attempt to do a non-lethal takedown), for another it'd suck if you needed to kill someone but couldn't, which carries it's own risks.

You realistically couldn't accurately predict terminal ballistics in a gunfight in real life, so slightly randomizing the damage effectively adds a small measure of realism.
Some would argue it doesn't seem as fair, but mind also that you have the chance to take less damage and cause more damage by this mechanic, so it swings both ways.

If I didn't play with it it ended up readjusting the colors every few seconds which bothered me. There's another version in the unreal thread that's more normal, but the quality looks worse imo

Thanks a lot, I just find it a bit annoying and a slight bit disorienting

>>4113562
basic estimate of cartridge firepower is as follows from references ive seen:

* .22 cal: 180J
* 9mm or .45acp: 500J
* .357 magnum: 900J
* .44 magnum: 1350J
* 5.56mm: 1750 joules
* .308: 3200 joules

One pick of ammunition I found for .40 super is a 135gr projectile with a muzzle velocity of 1750fps... which comes out to 1250J.

That is a pretty light bullet for 10mm diameter but these are the conclusions I draw.

Put a finer powder in it or a mix of fine/coarse along with a lighter bullet (like a sabot 5.56mm) and you'll probably get 2000-2300 fps out of it. Which spits fire about as strong as a .30 carbine. Maybe more if you want to push it (ie, make sure the guns are overbuilt)

Actually ive been playing since 1994 so im not a babby by any standards. I was 11 when I found out doom had been released, it took another year before my dad upgraded to a computer capable of playing it.

reminder that randomized damage always makes enemies feel tankier and quake supposedly has too many bullet sponges as it is

>>4113606

I don't like how games individualize shotgun pellet damage either. You need to count up the number of pellets that hit, then treat that as a single attack that does a certain amount of (randomized) damage.

>>4113591
>I feel like it was kinda Rushed, like they just did it good enough to get it out the door.
That's because it was.

They originally had a sort of fantasy RPG kind of game planned, "Quake: The Fight For Justice", but Romero was designated as a project lead this time around, and this was a problem because he was high of his tits on the success of Doom, more often than not he'd be chatting up the press or be out deathmatching with fans somewhere.
He was really not good at doing his job here, and was consumed with hubris (which would later catch up with him as Dai-Katana started to fall apart on him, teaching him a bitter but important lesson).

People had been churning out resources and done some sporadic mapping, but little of substance had been done because Romero hadn't been there to direct as he was supposed to, and as the deadline drew ever closer, Carmack decided "Fuck it! This will never get done in time, let's just make another shooter. Mmm"
Romero objected to this but everyone was in favor of Carmack's idea, leading to butthurt and Romero resigning after Quake was done.

So about 6 months before release they just took all the stuff they had and started patching it all together and retrofitting the game into a vaguely Doom-like shooter, which is why the game has a very unique quality, as it was both in a sort of quasi-production limbo, yet was rushed out the door to be something entirely different from what was originally planned. It's got a very rough edge in that sense, there's bosses missing (an unfinished skeletal dragon for episode 4 is in the game files), and an entire Aztec texture set was unused, then deleted, being finally used for one of the expansions.

I both like and dislike that quality of Quake, it's very nice in this sense, but it's also pretty clearly an unfinished game.

>>4113630
>but Romero was designated as a project lead this time around
who was project lead for Doom then?

>>4113621

The point of random damage isnt so much the effect it has on the enemies... as much as how much it does to YOU.

This was especially evident in doom with the revenants... the revenant rocket could do anywhere from 10 to 80 damage to you. If it always just did 45 then you knew what you was in for. But because it could do up to 80 you really didnt want to get hit with it.

You should NOT be getting shot in a video game. Regardless of how much health or armor you've got. Its tactically unsound and foolish to say the least. Truly unrealistic to a fault is more accurate to say.

So you should not be getting rewarded for being hit by knowing exactly how worse off you'll be for it.

> compounded by both quake games having rather low damage from its enemies, the player was definitely a bullet sponge... in quake 2 being machinegunned by strogg troopers literally meant taking a string of 2 or 3 hit point bullet whacks... and the best their rockets and grenades could do to you was 40 or 50 damage.

I mean it doesn't need to be as accurate as a simulator, but it does need to carry some consequences. Over time games developed hit locations and started veering away from bullet sponge player characters (in most multiplayers these days it seems everybody is a 2HP wonder)

>>4113591
>I feel like it was kinda Rushed, like they just did it good enough to get it out the door.

That's exactly what happened. A fantasy RPG was planned but they didn't have the time. Honestly surprised it came out the way it did.

>>4113638
most enemy damage in quake is randomized, though, and it isn't reliant on difficulty
a shambler's two-arm swipe can graze you or can outright kill you with 100+damage in one go (assuming you don't have armor), while only its electricity attack is fixed (30 damage, 10x3)

>>4113642

> the emergence of the cancerous computer aftermarket

>>4113614
Yeah but you're going way beyond a subgun at that point, might as well just go for an assault rifle and have more power, better control and further range.

>>4113636
I don't really think they had really designated someone as an outright project leader before, things just sort of vaguely went by consensus/vote, with Carmack having a final word on the engine side.

For instance, Romero and Tom really wanted the secret pushwalls for Wolfenstein 3D, but Carmack refused because he thought it would look like an ugly hack, and they'd continue to pester him about it on occasion.
Then one day when Romero went to bug him about it again he just said "Oh, I already implemented it.", as he apparently put weight in their nagging and figured out a way he thought worked.

Then back when Carmack first developed the engine, they had already done a bunch of Commander Keen games (which Tom loved), and though he had initially assumed they were going to make a first person Commander Keen, Adrian had objected because he's wonderfully edgy and was sick of drawing cutesy kid's stuff, and suggested they'd do something dark this time, like revisit all the grotesque violence they were forced to cut out of Dangerous Dave, which they all ended up agreeing on.

Nothing personnel

The PS1 port of Doom and MetaDoom fit so well, yet i can't describe why.

>>4113653
The point is to be able to put your assault rifle bullets in your handgun. So that way none of the ammo cabinets all have the same bullets in them and you're not feeding two different calibers.
> Logistics and simplicity

You cant do that if the case is 45mm long. The russians tried that trick with the 5.45mm by having the magazine in the grip and it was too unwieldy.

So you use a shorter case, which is also fatter, likewise necked down.

If you get down to it this is one of the reasons that having laser weapons is such a boon even if they end up only doing about the same damage as firearms. Because they all use the same ammunition (unless you're a capitalist douchebag who decides each gun has to use proprietary energy cells that absolutely will not fit or convert to anything else).

>>4113672
yeah but those guys are nothing pretty much, and they have no aim either (well at least they do in my mod, and when you're up close they start rapid firing and can kill imps that get in the way)

>>4113672
I spent the last few sessions on TNTR where shotguys literally teleported behind me and put lead in my back in the last few maps, getting plinked at with sporadic and sloppy zombieman fire I think is nothing, even if RNG gave them a favor of higher damage.

>>4113662
how was that meant to work? you wave it side to side for turning?

>>4113680
yeah and in my mod the shotgunners use double barreled shotguns since thats what I replaced the normal shotgun with

They do less damage than the player's but the fact is their aiming mechanic has them rotate to a random angle and then shoot. So if you're right up next to them they will not miss.

Then again I wanted the zombies to be a little more on Imp/Pinky level of difficulty. However when modern wads spam them like this it really puts you on the edge of your seat.

(in terms of what the player actually ends up taking ive counted up 28 damage from the 14 smaller pellets, and 32 damage from the accurate center stack of 4 pellets... so up close the player will take at least 60)

>>4113653
not sure what you mean, since i don't think pushwalls ever ended up in the final game. or do you mean the sliding door code that was never finished? https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Door#Sliding_doors

Needs a soundtrack replacement though.

>>4113683
No, and it's not even a mouse, it's a joystick, the hammer is a little stick you're supposed to use with your thumb, and it's super uncomfortable to actually hold it by the grip and control that way.

>>4113706
oh i misread "for" as "from", sorry to waste your time.

>>4113696

Make zombie facetarget (tnt1 @ 0 tics).
Make zombie set angle to (current angle + frandom shit).
Now fire at will.

> though since he's using an SSG I give him a counter saying he still has to reload before he can actually shoot again, and it diverts to a reloading delay where you hear him loading up the shotgun

> but trust me this isnt enough time to really count on it saving your ass, and thats even with randomizing whether the shotgunner with a fresh spawn actually has his gun loaded already

So the zombie aims, but then diverts aim, then fires. I need to set the angle larger though because I accounted for 12 degrees maximum spread in the blast as being part of the 22 degree spread they would normally have, so he will only (frandom) aim up to 10 degrees in either direction.

(the center stack of higher damage pellets has a spread of 4 degrees, the smaller pellets actually only cause 3 bullet dice worth each but the player takes 33% damage from this damage type - so for a monster the shotgunner's damage is 116 points)

> I have seen shotgunners take down a hell knight who wasnt paying attention to them with a couple blasts after I had already blasted it

> this is what I wanted - more gruesome monster infighting so that it finishes itself faster and doesn't buy the player as much time

By the way the chaingunners are more accurate too, which should make you cringe. I at least give them a spraying attack for their first loop though (so they will start shooting at 15 degrees on one side, and increment each shot by 3 degrees until they've fanned all the way across - then they start shooting directly at you with a 12 degree spread). They dont have as high a painchance either. Its actually worth lobbing a rocket at them just to instakill.

>>4113735
there's also alot More monster infighting too since a variety of monsters have fireballs with a splash radius (which by the way can also kill you if you're low on health and you're pinned down):

Caco fireballs: 3 splash to 48 radius
Noble fireballs: 6 splash to 56 radius
Revenant missile: half of its damage is splash out to 64 radius (dodging is not good enough)
Fatso fireballs: alot of fucking splash (and it can even hit you around corners)

So even if they're hitting the same species with their own fireballs it can damage something else in the crowd and itll start a fight.

> Monsters take 2x damage from monster fireballs too, so they really hurt each other. Revenants are doing somewhere on the order of 90-120 damage to other creatures. And noble fireballs actually splatter zombies and imps almost every time since the gib threshold is only 1.5x

Alternatively, you could do a constant A_Explode on the enemy with a slightly larger radius than the enemy's hitbox.
