About This File

Fight the marines. NOTE: This is a re-do of MARINE1.ZIP, which was around 2.6 megs due to un-appended sprites from Doom II. This version has no illegal sprites and is much smaller, but there are NO changes apart from that.

Awful. The shotgun replacement freezes the game whenever you try to switch weapons. Overall, this is just crap.

I recall playing a modified version of this years ago. It had 6 maps (which looked just as bad as the first) instead of just one and was called "cyberwar.wad". I can't find the link anymore though. Even for 1997 this wad is really bad. The only good thing is the replacement enemy soldier sprite. 2/5 --"Play Doom not war"-- T.V.

This WAD is quite a legend. I even remember it appeared on CNN, as a version of it was actually used to train marines in combat simulations. Interestingly enough, there's nothing particularly special about the WAD. The DEH patch makes gameplay a bit more "realistic" I guess, and the hand grenade is cool, but overall ... meh. --3/5

Gee, for a wad endorsed by the military, there sure are a lot of copyright infringing Aliens sounds! Also, SS Nazis? An M16 that fires at 2000RPM and an auto-shotgun M60? SO REAL. 1/5

On its own, this wad sucks ass. However, playing it along with the Real Guns Hardcore wad is AMAZING!

      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.
