Donce Posted January 29, 2004 The Spirit World indeed impressed me the most when playing doom2 the first time. Now I simply don't have a favourite. And Bloodfalls I'd say is one of the easier levels - even in NM. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
MaximusNukeage Posted January 29, 2004 really? easy? which do you think is the hardest, excluding the final? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted January 30, 2004 Map30 is in no way the hardest level And when you ask "hardest" it really does depend on the skill level. Some levels are harder on NM than UV, some vice versa (wide open, little backtracking, etc). 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
sargebaldy Posted January 30, 2004 I don't really like any of the Doom II maps.. if I were forced to pick one anyway... I'd probably say something like map04 ("the focus") or map15 ("industrial zone"). as for the hardest, i'd probably guess map29. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
MaximusNukeage Posted January 30, 2004 i meant on UV i dont mess with NM 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted January 30, 2004 Tricks and Traps is my favorite. Nirvana is the hardest for me. I've never beaten it before, but someone told me something about it not too long ago and I think I know where I got stuck. Maybe I'll attempt it again...if I feel like it. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Job Posted January 30, 2004 The early levels like The Crusher and The Focus, The Gantlet, etc were my faves. That is Doom2 in my eyes.Danarchy said:Tricks and Traps is my favorite.

Maybe I'll attempt it again...if I feel like it. I've never beaten The Citadel. That one just kicks my butt. I think it's the citadel, anyway. Wait, no. It's some other open, large map. The one that requires all 3 keys to leave. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Epyo Posted January 30, 2004 Courtyard is that one I think. My favorite is 14: The Inmost Dens. One of the best doom levels ever :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Stealthy Ivan Posted January 30, 2004 The "O" of Destruction... It was the first level I got stuck on! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Lutrov71 Posted January 30, 2004 The Focus (map04) is what I consider the hardest, and map20, (Gotcha) starting with only a pistol is extremely difficult. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Kristian Ronge Posted January 30, 2004 MaximusNukeage said: whats everyones favorate doom2 level? My favourite is map 7, "Dead Simple". The first real slaughter map. ;-) and what is the general concensus about the hardest doom2 level, excluding Icon Of Sin The "hardest" depends on what style you're playing. Map 7 for example is extremely hard to do Tyson style but is easy to do UV max style. For UV max, the DHT6 level sets considers the hardest maps to be 8, 16, 18, 19, 23, 27, 28, 29. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
larsboy Posted January 30, 2004 Doom 2 has a very mixed bunch of levels, some are truly great while others seems like they where thrown together in a hurry. My favorites (in numerical order): 11-Circle of death: Looks good and fun to play 14-Inmost dens: Brown stone theme done very well, love those canals 15-Industrial zone: Very large and open, with lots of different structures, many good secrets 16-Suburbs: Doesn't look good, but great fun to play from pistol start/no saving on UV, nice and open gameplay 19-Citadel: This was my favorite early on, loved the citadel theme and the exploration, but I was disappointed when I played it again recently 29-The living end: Best map in Doom 2! The theme has been copied many times (twice in Plutonia, in HR, etc), and some of these are better than the original. Don't know about hardest, but Bloodfalls is one that comes to mind. It seems hard in an unfair way, not in a good, challening way. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
MaximusNukeage Posted January 30, 2004 the citidels arcetecture is pure ownage, but the living end is a work of art; its so pretty. why is the inmost dens so popular, it didn't seem that special then i played it (about 3 hours ago) edit: how come no one has mentioned the wolf levels? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Do you remember what part in Nirvana was hard for you? Because it's fairly short, and IMO, once you learn the layout and the tricks - not too difficult. I'm not much into playing "the hardcore way" - from scratch with no saving, but this thread has got me intrigued. Might try Bloodfalls soon. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Negostrike Posted January 30, 2004 My favorite map is MAP29. I like big maps and it's a very good challenge. MAP20 is another one that I like very much. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
SSWolfenSie Posted January 30, 2004 I Like the level 20 "Gotcha!" The BEST level... :) I Like the level 30 "icon of sin", too. :) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Lutz Posted January 30, 2004 I'd have to agree with several others: I think that "Circle of Destruction" and "The Living End" have the best consistent themes are generally the most entertaining; also, there's just so much to do in the "Industrial Zone" level that it's always a good time. As for the ugliest, "The Suburbs" is the clear winner for me. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted January 30, 2004 I'd have to say that Nirvana is the ugliest. Bloodfalls is also rather ugly, but it looks more like it's incomplete or was rushed. Nirvana is just plain hideous. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
SSWolfenSie Posted January 30, 2004 Bloodfalls is awful level. Just a blue skull key than I think it's don't needed. =\ ICON OF SIN and GOTCHA Rulzzz!!! :) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted January 30, 2004 As for my favorite maps, that would be Spirit World, Living End, maybe Refueling Base. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Erik Posted January 30, 2004 Map01 gave me the most entertainment so far (in DM). Map11 and 14 are the prettiest maps. Map30 is the only one I can't beat on UV 100% of the time so I guess that it's the hardest (or at least most unpredictable) one, map04, 12 and 29 are harder on NM though. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
moonspell Posted January 30, 2004 For me, the best Doom II level is The Gantlet. I love the beginning, where you can just make out a zombie guy through the window. The rest of the level is supremely well designed. It took me ages to know what to do once that switch being guarded by the chaingun sergeant, but when I finally saw the wall that had been raised to level the portal, I was very happy indeed. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Mr. Woot Posted January 30, 2004 the hardest? well i must say that would be following refueling base the chasm A Abandoned mines my favorites are: Gotcha! (a classic) Grosse downtown the spirit world (those face pillars are awesome, i wish i could put them as my background) the citadel i love starting every level with just the basics (i.e. pistol/fist) good multiplayer practice...... :) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Job Posted January 30, 2004 I really like the tech base theme of refueling base. However, I think the start for The Living End is dramatic...lowering elevator and bam, this massive, open area with ready-to-go hostiles. I don't know if the pit in the beginning had to be so deep. It always struck me as kind of n00bish in nature. Catacombs was a level I liked too, on second thought. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
