Project Mars Base

About This File

The first mission to the moons of mars was a 2 man team of space marines who were trying to see if the moons were able to sustain the UAC's new space station. The team landed, they report every thing seems fine, but the shuttle they were in had been destryoed in the landing. After a day the team had failed to report back. The last thing they reported informed you that they had used charges to break through a small opening in the rocks, because they had detected a life form in a tunnel on the other side. The UAC sends you to rescue the team and check on thier progression of the project. What you find to your supprise is the crashed suttle, and the cave that they had tunneled into, but only one of the marines, and he was laying in front of you dying. The last few things he tells you is, the other marine was eaten by some beast that came through this gate. You see that he had destroyed the gate befor he was attacked. The last marine dies, you are now alone in this strange place built on alien soil. You can hear some noise comming from the tunnels, you try and radio back and notice that the transmition is very unclear. You figure that the base back on earth will send up a rescue team to find you... But then you remember, you are the rescue team...!! Oh shit... now what...? Well play the levels and see..!!!!!!

The text file is hideously inaccurate--there are only 6 levels (and a half-assed modification to Dead Simple--some additional barons), a full music replacement, and no new textures that I observed. The levels that are there are aesthetically unattractive, and shoddily composed. Packed with monsters of all sizes and WAY too much ammo--not much of a challenge, despite there being 430+ monsters in the first map. Obviously a project that was abandoned in its early stages. Avoid. --Demon of the Well

Map01 starts off with a nicely-detailed broken teleporter, and then sets a pattern where you fight masses of weak monsters, and you have more weapons than in all of E1 of the original Doom (probably). The rest of the maps are just the same - not awful, but the combination of easy gameplay and swarms of baddies is numbing. You get the plasma at the start almost all the time. NB there are nine maps, but 06 and 07 are placeholders (skip 'em).

If you are in the mood to just shoot a lot of monsters then this may be for you. Don't believe the text file - There are only 9 levels.

mixed bag, I hated MAP01, MAP07 starts out just like Dead Simple, and MAP09 doesn't even have an exit. judging from the amount of monsters, I'd say this is more of a coop-oriented mapset than for singleplayer. I'd recommend it if you like Metallica or slaughtering weak monsters, but it didn't do well for me.

      Unloved

      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.

      The Darkening Episode 2
      By LouigiVerona · Posted
      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

      The Revenant Problem
      By Ranger Qwerty · Posted
      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.
