True enough, but on a serious, non-jokey note, it would be nice if there were some kind of glossary of Doom and Doom-related terms somewhere. Especially one that makes sense of the language used by the Doom community (doomworld, zdoom forums, etc). All I've found so far was this. Anyone up to writing these down in a comprehensible format? You'd need 1) basic pronunciation key, 2) clear definition, and 3) its usage in a sentence. Bonus points for a picture, GIF, or WAV that can provide a visual/auditory example. 0 Share this post Link to post

I seem to recall 40oz suggesting something along these lines sometime last year. I'm not sure how far he got with it, but I think the idea was to incorporate it into the wiki (I could be misremembering that part though). 0 Share this post Link to post

Gez Posted January 17, 2014 joe-ilya said:MegaWad: A level replacement for all of the official levels. *BZZZT* Wrong definition! http://www.gamers.org/pub/idgames/levels/doom/ The 'megawads' directory contains files that contain a large scale replacement of 15 or more levels, but which don't qualify for the themes/ directory. DM-only megawads are in the 'deathmatch/megawads' directory. The only game for which a megawad is guaranteed to be a replacement of all levels is Chex Quest 3, since it has 15 levels in all. 0 Share this post Link to post

Foxpup Posted January 17, 2014 joe-ilya said:Ultimate Doom Def: An official expansion pack for DOOM. (Am I right, Gez?) Wrong again. Ultimate Doom is the retail version of Doom 1, as the full version of the original game was never available in stores and had to be ordered directly from id. Although it includes an extra episode, it can't be called an expansion pack as it does not require the original game to run, and those who do already have the original game needn't buy Ultimate Doom as well, as it's part of the 1.9 upgrade. 0 Share this post Link to post

Guest Posted January 17, 2014 Joy: (noun) Killing two consecutive lost souls with two blasts from the single barrel shotty. (Not that I can ever recall doing this. Has anyone?) Pistol: A compact handheld weapon used for approximately the first 8 seconds of any given Doom level. Also may be used for sniping, or as a last resort. Is only slightly outdone in terms of range, damage and accuracy by throwing handfuls of freshly ripped out nosehairs. Slaughtermap: Any map on which using the chaingun becomes an exercise in futility, or at best, incredibly tedious. TheMightyHeracross said:Might Noun: a thing that makes light when you feel mighty Beautiful definition. In the same vein: Plasma (Noun): Something you cook with, usually now. 0 Share this post Link to post
