Did you check DSDA? vdgg comments on the lack of ammo and the need for infighting here.
MAP05 - THE CLEANSING |
This map shows you don't need cyberdemos and arch-viles to create difficulties. One arachnotron, one revenant, one pain elemental plus really, really weak monsters. But when you equip the player with the chainsaw, shotgun and chaingun with *very* limited ammo, you'll see the point (I think no-one would create such a map nowadays, as all the testers would whine "needs more ammo!" :) ). I like this map very much, recording a Max demo was a good challenge for me.
(DC) Just to warn you, this demo has plenty of slow-paced action.
He makes a similar comment about map25. Probably back when it was released, they expected people not to play maps from a pistol start, or forgot to test each map in that respect.
I can't really give my first impressions of this map, since I first played it in the 1990s. But in general I like maps that force you to make do with very limited ammo, and enjoy non-berserk punching demons.
