BOURGEOIS GUNS - The weapons from Bourgeois Megawad

[Doomkid]

 

For those of you who enjoyed the guns from Bourgeois Megawad, here they are as their own standalone weapon pack:

• The fists and chainsaw are both far faster and more powerful.

 

• The pistol is now a faster, fully accurate rifle.

 

• The single-barrel shotgun has been sped up a bit, as has the chaingun, making them a more even match against the SSG.

 

• The speed at which rockets and plasma travel is also a bit faster, making them more viable in deathmatch.

 

• The BFG remains untouched! (In other words, it uses 40 cells like in standard Doom, rather than 80 like it did for the Bourgeois Levels)

 

 

Have fun!

Interesting!

That black chaingun is slowly burning into my mind as one of your Doom stuff's defining features. It looks oddly cool.

So to clarify, the bfg uses 40 cells again instead of 80?

[Doomkid]

That’s right, totally unaltered

Excellent, I think you should point that out in the first post to be extra clear, since one of the only grievances people had with these is that the BFG took 80 cells, which was a DM centered decision anyway.

 

In any case, these weapons should definitely be a blast for anyone looking to mow down hordes quickly without deviating too much from the standard vanilla weapons! Would definitely make things much less of a grind in many wads.

You’re right, I clarified the BFG situation in the OP, didn’t realise initially it might sound like I meant “unaltered from how it was in Bourgeois”. Fixed!

 

I also genuinely think DM gameplay in most vanilla wads would be excellent with these weapons. Making all the other weapons viable alternatives to the SSG (rather than being plainly inferior as they usually are) adds a ton of replay value, because combat doesn’t always revolve around one lone weapon.

perfect, thanks for doing this. I'm gonna be using it all the time. I was gonna say you should keep the BFG to 40 but I didn't want to ask too much

This is excellent! I hope I see more balanced DM weapon mods like these show up more around the multiplayer scene. PvP would be a little more interesting to play.

 

I've also always wanted a Rudy II DM wad, those weapons would be insane in PvP.

This is definitely slotting into my next mapset, I mean I already use the chain-gun from this why wouldn't I want everything else?
