Doomworld Speedmapping Compilation #4

   (4 reviews)

About This File

This is a compilation of the WADs entered in Doomworld's fourth speedmapping exercise. Participants were given 100 minutes to create a Doom 2 level on a certain theme. This week's theme was to build a map set in a tech base, with at least two secret areas.

for the fourth iteration of dwspd, the theme is techbase with at least two secrets. speedmaps tend to varying themes and gimmicks, but techbase is perhaps the most common theme by nature, so in all honesty this particular compilation isn't all that fun. as usual, a mixed bag: some bad, some average, little actually good. apart from, you guessed it, Fredrik's map (MAP04), none are really good in quality. the two maps that should be skipped are MAP10 (just a bunch of Hell knights on a block, followed by a bunch of barons in another room plus a cyberdemon, barely even qualifying for techbase theme) and MAP13 (a complete throwaway map that even lacks an exit). otherwise, this falls under "play it once just out of curiosity then never really bother with it again" type of compilation.

My faves were levels 4 and the best one of them all, level 8. While some of these maps suck, some seem like it would take longer than 100 minutes. 4/2/07

      I genuinely enjoyed this mod with its level design and music. It was challenging and interesting and it kept me playing a while after beating it to try to find anything. though I would say it was slightly repetitive and overwhelming with enemies at some moments.

      Writing a review for Darkening 2 is tough. It's a beloved megawad, and for good reason. As many other reviewers have said, it is historically a very important project.   It was an important megawad for me personally. I fell in love with the first level in particular. The music, the realistic architecture, so reminiscent of the video games of the 90s... It all left a lasting impression. And it was one of the most beautiful wads I've seen at the time.   But I rarely played anyt

      A competently made map, for sure, but fun? It's way too long and repetitive, with same-y combat & ambush scenarios used again and again, and with way too much enemies, and not that much of a challenge, even for me who isn't exactly fond of "SUPER HARD WAD #9263!!!!11!. You can cut the whole thing in half, and then cut THAT half in half, and it would be a better map. Is it bad? No, just a little bit above average, mostly because it drags a bit too long.

      Generally good map design, but the difficulty as is the case with pwads tends to be uneven even on HMP, especially when you mix them with what slaughtermaps tend to be (monster spam). Too many parts where, after pressing a switch, you'll spend some time killing enemies only to realise the map maker tried to get cute and spawned a bunch of hidden archviles somewhere to start reviving everyone while you were busy wasting ammo. This is especially unfun in parts with very little cover where you'll b

      I like the part where I pay for the numerous murders I committed by getting beaten up by either a Mancubus or an Arachnotron, it changed my outlook on Monster Priority. Thank you "Problematic" Revenant #7, I have yet to find a way to repay him.
