hardcore_gamer Posted November 23, 2012 Why do so many people hate the D_RUNNIN track that plays on Doom 2's MAP01? I hear lots of peope bash it, but I have always found it to be a pretty cool track. 0 Share this post Link to post

myk Posted November 23, 2012 Poor hardcore_gamer! People didn't like his complaints threads so he resorted to making threads about who else hates what he wanted to bitch about, or threads admonishing other hater rivals. 0 Share this post Link to post
Econdop1996 Posted November 23, 2012 Every time I play a new wad, I usually hear thad music. It's gatting boring. 0 Share this post Link to post
TheEndOfUs Posted November 23, 2012 It is an ok track, it grew on me. I dont get people who like the elevator music on map02 though, most inappropriate. 0 Share this post Link to post

cannonball Posted November 23, 2012 It does get overused as many wad authors don't put in new (different midis). I prefer it to "At Dooms gate" IMO 0 Share this post Link to post
Feniks Posted November 23, 2012 It's an excellent track, one of the best from Doom 2. By the way, I've seen that lot of posters on here dislike Between Levels (map04) and I can't fathom out why. It's also one of my Doom 2 favourites, it sort of gives off an old-school vibe. 0 Share this post Link to post

Graf Zahl Posted November 23, 2012 Not the worst track in the game but certainly the one one gets subjected to the most often. 'Hate', that would be D_AMPIE. 0 Share this post Link to post
Koko Ricky Posted November 23, 2012 Metal covers of it sound pretty sweet. I've grown old of hearing the dinky little MIDI version a thousand times. In other words, overexposure. 0 Share this post Link to post
Tristan Posted November 23, 2012 I don't mind D_RUNNING too much, although I haven't made any MAP01's yet. D_BETWEE is also one of my favourite tracks. I'd love to remake that (well, I'd love to remake all of them but that in particular), but I'll never be that good on drums, I'm shit enough as it is. 0 Share this post Link to post
General Rainbow Bacon Posted November 23, 2012 I'm sick of hearing it every damn time I open a wad. 0 Share this post Link to post
Enjay Posted November 23, 2012 It's not over used. Replacements are under used. :P I don't hate D_RUNNIN but I guess after the thousands of times that I have heard it, I do like to hear an alternative in a WAD. 0 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted November 23, 2012 it's a nice theme, fast and catchy like every starting map on doom's franchise... expect plutonia, that have e1m2 music... 0 Share this post Link to post
esselfortium Posted November 23, 2012 I like it. Also, it reminds me of my early days of Doom mapping when I was a kid. 0 Share this post Link to post
Gerardo194 Posted November 23, 2012 I don't hate D_RUNNING. I think is cool track, i have no problems with Doom music. 0 Share this post Link to post
Daiyu_Xiaoxiang Posted November 24, 2012 I think this music is OK, at least it represents the 1st map of a megawad. 0 Share this post Link to post
ComicMischief Posted November 24, 2012 Modern source ports should be engineered to detect custom WADs and play Casino Night Zone from Sonic 2 in place of D_RUNNIN if there's one present. It will hopefully annoy the mapper into changing the map, but in the meantime it's the best videogame music ever. Everyone wins. Except those three people who don't like Casino Night Zone, basrads. 0 Share this post Link to post

D_RUNNIN is the best track in Doom 2. Freedoom remix (why the hell it's even there?) is even better. 0 Share this post Link to post
baronofheck82 Posted November 25, 2012 I don't hate it. I just never listen to it - I always play with the PSX Doom music wad :) 0 Share this post Link to post
40oz Posted November 25, 2012 D_E1M1 is much better to listen to when playing Doom 1 PWADs 0 Share this post Link to post

Snakes Posted November 26, 2012 D_RUNNIN is a good track when used properly, just like most other serious midis out there. Some people just don't tack on custom music, so it can be jarring to run through their ultra, super-atmospheric-and-what-not hell map to a guitar solo. 0 Share this post Link to post
Clonehunter Posted November 26, 2012 Its a great track for simply filling the void in pwads that dont change the track tosomething else. And the whole second half the song is Godly. 0 Share this post Link to post
savagegrant Posted November 27, 2012 I like both D_RUNNIN and D_E1M1 but I've heard them too many times so I usually IDMUSxx when hit with them in a WAD. 0 Share this post Link to post
