SPACE STATION: Carnifex: Part Eight in the Frag Fest series!

About This File

STORY:

The story is set in the ruins of a space station, barely holding out against the demons that constantly batter against it's defenses...

That space station is Space Station Carnifex.

Guarded by a few heros against the terrors of Warp Space that are a few meters away from the great airlock doors that guard the space station... Until now, it's been deadlock - The demons can't penetrate the defenses of the station, and the Space Marines don't dare to venture into Warp Space, even with protective Vac Suits.

But last night, it all changed. The demons used magic to teleport deadly Archviles into the very bowels of the station, but worse than that, they smuggled in a deadly Chaos Marine, to destroy the stations last remaining defenders...

Who will the victor?

DESCRIPTION:

The level is well laid out for deathmatch, with definite rooms, and a network of secret corridors round the outside of the station providing a means of double tracking upon your opponent. The BFG is *hell* to get to, as you have to dive into the Chaos Warp itself (a rad-suit would be cool), and steal it from the demons secret research centre...

The BFG and Megasphere can be closed off, forever, at any time, by the flick of a switch, so BFG/ megasphere haters have nothing to worry about.

Force fields can be switched off, demons can be allowed to invade the base (whos to say that they'll allow the chaos marine to live once they're inside the stronghold?) for extra amusement... There are lots of nice touches to play with.

You CAN play one player, but it's not meant for that, hmmm?

This could be a little fun for a DM, but the invisible walls are a kiler. They also look really bad when you can see FLAT1 bleeding out everywhere, but an OK effort for it's time.. Only for Doom archeologists.

      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.
