Anonymous	5 stars for a realistic map with decent playability.	x
Anonymous	That's a pretty cool map. The details are really cool. This is probably one of the most realistic maps made. The only thing that sucks is the crappy start of the map where you're facing off against a huge horde of enemies with just a shotgun and pistol and sometimes it's hard to figure out where to go. Aside from that, this map rocks. 4/5	x
Anonymous	This is a large, detailed map, technically impressive for 2002. It's a bit like the film "Outland", but brighter. There's a set of top-loading washing machines, a pinball machine, toilets (the designer puts imps in the female toilets). But the gameplay is as dull as ditchwater. You are faced with a small range of weak monsters, in an often-times intricate and cramped network of small rooms. It gets very boring very quickly.	x
Anonymous	nice - Kak Home	x
Anonymous	One of the most realistic maps ever. GP doesn't disappoint.	x

Coopertive:			Yes, 4 starts
Deathmatch:			Yes, in the little area that is inaccessible
				from the single player portion of the level.

*ADDITIONAL NOTES*

Doomed Once More background story:

Doomed Once More follows pretty much the same plot as the original Ultimate
Doom. You know, UAC, gateways getting fucked up, your team goes in, you're
left to "secure the perimeter" with only a pistol, etc.

You will start episode one in a little guard bunker outside the landing
zone. After you clear out the LZ and the storage facility (E1M2), you will
arrive at the Phobos Living Quarters, which is E1M3.

E1M3
Map Name:		No Quarter
MIDI:			Memento Mori Map 10 (Mark Klem)
Inspiration:		Originally started out as a level for the ill-fated
			Doom Revisited project, so I decided to take it and
			center my own project around it. The goal was to
			make a level (and hopefully an entire megawad) as
			realistically as I could.

Description:		Takes place in the living quarters on Phobos. Your
			primary goal here is to activate the monorail and
			use it to progress further into the Phobos facility.
			The monorail isn't active because several portions
			of the monorail tunnels have collapsed, causing the
			safety overrides to set in and stop all monorail
			service.

You start out in a little service elevator. From
			there, you'll head up to the mess hall, and then
			the recreational facility. Inside the rec facility
			is the blue key, which will give you access to the
			troop quarters. Located in the troop quarters is
			the red key, which in turn allows to you enter the
			officers' quarters. Once there, you'll have to
			activate the monorail from within the monorail
			control center, then head up to the monorail station
			to exit.

There are eleven secrets in this level, including
			the yellow key, which isn't necessary towards
			completing the level, but will give you access to
			lots of neat things, and the secret exit, which will
			bring you to E1M9, which is a stockade/armory.

Additional Notes:	In terms of difficulty, this level isn't overly
			hard. Don't be overwhelmed by the large monster
			count, since they are all rather weak (the toughest
			is a demon). There are, however, several somewhat
			tough battles, but this level should be a mediocre
			challenge for the average Doomer.

As for health and ammo, there isn't a whole lot of
			spare health floating around, but there is certainly
			enough to go around. There are also two soul spheres,
			if you can find them.

I didn't put much ammo in this level on purpose, for
			two reasons. One is that in the final version, you
			will be coming from the first to levels in episode
			one, and you should have some ammo left over from
			those. The other reason is that due to the huge
			amount of enemies that drop ammo (former humans and
			shotgun guys), it will be hard to take a step
			without picking something up, so ammo really
			shouldn't be a problem.

If you can't find some of the secrets, don't get
			angry. There are eleven, after all, and many of
			them are quite hard. Remember to "interact" with
			objects such as computers if you get stuck. There
			isn't a single inaccessible area in this game,
			except for the deathmatch area, so don't worry.
			Just keep looking, and you'll eventually find it.
