A Hidden Mountain Factory

   (45 reviews)

Guest

About This File

This is primarily a single-player level, though you can play it in co-op - and even deathmatch, though it's not specially designed for it. The storyline: you have to infiltrate a hidden mountain factory, which produces... um... really nasty stuff. It is heavily guarded, so be careful! Stop the production and escape the facilities. Good luck!

Kind of a mixed bag. Enemy placement felt cheap at times, at least on UV. Lots of hitscanners in tight quarters. But the map has good atmosphere, a memorable layout and nice overall design. Impressive enough for '96. But this one hasn't aged too well IMO. 3/5

Well done! Claustrophobic, dark, challenging, atmospheric. Lot of enemies, especially hitscanners, will keep you on your toes. Wish there was whole megaWAD from this guy!

Those guys are producing some...nasty stuff. Small detailed map. Find the factory, shut it down and escape.

this is a relatively short level focusing mostly on claustrophobic combat. there's a non-secret plasma gun which requires a bit of thinking (get a monster to open a door for you), and quite a lot of hitscanners can make it hard, especially when you get closer to the end. it's average, but it might be worth at least one play.

On UV the level is a pretty difficult one, mainly due to very little health and the abundance of shotgunners/chaingunners all over the place, including some hard to see sniper's nests. Ammo can run out easily, too, unless you make good use of infighting. To complete this map you either need to be extremely careful at all times, or just find a secret that'll give you an edge. On the whole it's a well-designed and nice-looking map, but the difficulty feels rather cheap.

Holy fuck? A '96 WAD that beats many contemporary ones. Good gameplay, detailed visuals, interesting room architecture. Excellent!

a linear crawl that gives you no particularly fun items to work with - one of those old-school examples of championing balance to the obliteration of all else

It's not that good. Pretty linear (though not quite as much toward the end) and there's not enough health. There were far better maps about back in '96. 3/5

Those who complain about the lack of health just aren't good players...still a really challenging map. 5/5

This is one of the classic WAD's. Very well paced gameplay (except at the beginning). I was glad to see moving factory like structures, which really adds to gameplay. 4/5 -r_rr PS: What does this factory make thats really nasty?

You could replace "mountain facotry" with "gem of a map" and have a very appropriate title.

Not bad at all. I hated the beginning area before you go inside the mountain factory. It looked ugly compared to the other parts of the level. 4/5

A simplistic but very enjoyable map from 1996. I reccomend anyone who finds this page to play it. 4/5 ~Joe Anderson

A goodly bit of combat. Unlike so many of the highly-publicized wads of the same era, this one is still a challenge.

      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.
