were not great. some maps [like "project dark fox" hwoever that is] where awful when put up those like vader and xaser. i think the fan on 2-5 is broken, and everything on episode 3 looks like a torm667 map. not even vader could saved this. im very sorry.

That was horrible, the detail was extremely inconsistent, the gameplay consisted of forced nonlinearity by substituting switchhunts as legitimate gameplay elements, and the final boss was a frustrating twat.

Awesome WAD! Great atmosphere, gameplay and use of zdoom features. The hellish levels set my teeth on the edge. This is precisely what I look for in a doom game. 5*

Rocket Zombies do NOT need to exist. A very cheapshotting monster that serves to either kill itself very quickly or utterly annoy the player. I stopped playing when I saw one. I can't really rate this, not having played in through, but what I did see wasn't that impressive anyway. 3/5

Words are'nt enough to describe how amazing this wad is. Absolutely outstanding pack, including maps with varied themes. The maps are all solid and great, and yeah. I can't really describe this wad's awesomeness, so I'll just give it an absolute 5/5. Epic stuff right there. -Moti

"oh noes, a wad with lots of ZDoom features, beastiary monsters (which are there to be used btw) & jumping/crouching... SACRILEGE!!!11" - if you don't like that sort of thing, then don't play it. I was rather impressed by this wad...some of the maps did seem generic, but there's plenty of cool stuff here. Gameplay was decent too, new monsters used well and some tough set-pieces. This is the sort of thing ZDoom was made for…lots of cool features but still Doom at it’s core.

Yeah, that's really cool how all the people that helped make this project were the first ones to rate it 5 stars each. Nevertheless, I am not one to try to "balance" the ratings out like other people, but I do think that was uncalled for and that these levels left a lot to be desired. It's one thing to map in a theme, but it's also another to make them all seemingly the same!

"the rest of them seem to be Torm-wannabe maps" odd, i failed to see how Terror Cube and Spirit Underworld were Torm Wannabe maps, the rest i agree with for the most part though

GZDoom + ZPack + Brutal Doom = Best wad of all time... I'm not just saying that. 5/5, without question. Thanks for not adding new weapons. I like to mix my wads with brutal Doom :)

We all can agree that Vader's maps are crème de la crème of DOOM editing. But I was far more impressed by Zippy's, Phobus' and Xaser's work. Why? They were innovative and that alone makes this megawad stand out. Other maps were very good just not as memorable. And for all those who believe this project sucks (appart from map "x" or maps by "y") - make your own project and prove YOU can do better. 5/5

I actually like most of the maps. There are a few not-so-good ones, but even those aren't truly horrible. I gave it 5 stars.

Loving the last two levels of Episode 1. Especially the music used on E1M9! Really set the mood. Haven't had a Doom (in this case Zdoom) wad do that for a good while now :)

Some of the maps aren't all that great, but some are really good IMO. I think that E1M3,7,8,E2M3,6,7,E3 M7,8,0, and perhaps also the boss maps (M9) in some episodes, at least episode 1, are too good to miss. Other maps (E1M2,4,E2M1,5,0 (interesting "funny" level), and perhaps E3M3,4) are certainly worth your time. The other maps are really pretty average (some perhaps even worse), but I'm glad I played this pack and can recommend it overall. 3.5+(4)/5

This is a solid pack. There are some interesting levels here filled with detail, custom monsters and other ZDoom features. I found some maps a bit tedius and difficult, even on skill 2 though. Also the quality of the gameplay changes from amazing to 1994 styled, which will annoy some players. Overall, great pack. Could have used some new weapons though. 5/5

A bit hestitantly, I'm giving this 5 stars. There are a lot of average/even weak maps but some make this a must download IMO. Even disregarding Thunderpeak since that was released separately, I'd consider it to be near-criminal to miss out on Vader's other big map (Blackrock), Zippy's Terror Cube, or Xaser's Sector. Those three maps alone warrant the entire download IMO. I also feel all of Tormentor's maps here (E1M3,7; E2M3,7,9) were very good, and so was skillsaw's E3M8.

Monster resource pack abuse, didn't feel like Doom at times. And Flyboy is just stupid.

      Lots of traps and monster closets. Some switches are activated by shooting but there's nothing to really tell you about this because they look the same as other switches.   Texturing is good and enemy placement proved rather difficult at times. There aren't may health pickups on UV so it was a fight to get through.
    • By costadevale · Posted
      It's pretty good for 1994. If you don't mind having no health items at all (except in a few maps) and the outrageous amounts of cyberdemons per map, you should give it a try. It's pretty challenging and I like it. E2M3 is a bit 'eh...' though.

      What the actual f*ck is this map. I love having 4 rockets, a shit ton of bullets and like 10 shotgun shells to take out a revenant, and whatever was in that cage. Doesn't look too bad, maybe this negativity is cus im no expert, also rather unskilled at the game?

      thank god Underhalls was the map that followed this mod as that level was able to remind me what actually competent level design looks like.

      Not that bad, even kind of interesting find the secrets in the map! But yeah, that switches jungle is a awful choice really.
