NUCLEAR2.WAD

About This File

This level has a little bit of everything to it. Wide-open cavernous areas, hidden corridors, good observation/sniper spots, numerous nooks and crannies to ambush/be ambushed in, and a river of poisoned water. The level is built around a nuclear reactor core.

During multi-player play, the exit requires co-operation between two players to end the level.

This PWAD also features a few puzzles/tricks that DO NOT need to be solved to complete the level. In fact, there are entire areas that do not need to be visited to complete the level.

DEMO1 has been replaced with a demo of this level done on Hurt Me Plenty. The demo does not reveal the location of all secrets.

Not bad for an early 1994 level to be honest. It isn't good, but not bad. Being a Wolf3d fan I don't mind long corridors in maps that much, although the decoration could have been better that's for sure. If you're into old maps and corridor-esque maps, give it a shot.

Bad depressing extremely corridor-heavy level. You have better things to do, trust me.

It's a surprisingly decent very very early level, with an archetypal nuclear reactor core. The design is clean and there is a bit of detail, although it is very empty and bland, but the textures are well-chosened and generally work. There are lots of secrets, some of which are fun to find; not much ammo. Too many long, straight corridors but it's entertaining fun and much better than other wads of the period.

      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.
