CacoMarine Posted December 23, 2004 First of all, this is no where near copy of DoomWorld's best 100 WADs of all time. This is the DOOM (WAD) Awards for 2004. I really hope that Doomworld.com takes this as a official poll as of yeras to come, since us original Doom fans, believe it or not, STILL exists...but Doom III can of course be included. The following categories are mine, if you manage to come up with some other, I'd be glad only, so please.... DOOM AWARDS FOR 2004: BEST SINGLE-PLAYER WAD OF 2004 BEST DEATHMATCH WAD OF 2004 WORST WAD OF 2004 BEST WEAPON-ADD ON OF 2004 BEST MONSTER ADD-ON OF 2004 BEST GRAPHICS OF 2004 BEST GAMEPLAY OF 2004 BEST AUTHOR(S) OF 2004 and I though, based on these, we could ultimately vote on THE BEST DOOM (I/II) WAD OF 2004! If someone wants to count my humble voice, it's without a doubt Claustrophobia! 0 Share this post Link to post
larsboy Posted December 23, 2004 Why not vote for both best single-level wad and best megawad/episode, or for best level in addition to best wad, as a single-level wad and a megawad are two very different things, and hard to compare? 0 Share this post Link to post
CacoMarine Posted December 23, 2004 Good point, larsboy, that's why I said, "if you manage to come up with something else"... so BEST MEGAWAD OF 2004 shall be also included, and thus I'd vote VILE FLESH for sure! 0 Share this post Link to post
MikeyScoots Posted December 23, 2004 May want to add in Best Mod of 2004 Best TC of 2004 And then vice versa with Worst of 2004. 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted December 23, 2004 Makes sense to wait until 2004 has actually ended. Also, we've already had one thread like this (though without the in some cases minor or overlapping categories being proposed here). 0 Share this post Link to post
Chopkinsca Posted December 23, 2004 This reminds me of a dream I had last week where I won three medals. I really doubt I would win any medals in real life though. 0 Share this post Link to post

The closest ones this year were Bloodrust and New World 1+2 but IMO they simply cannot compete with the ones I mentioned. 0 Share this post Link to post

.:DartmerC:. Posted December 25, 2004 1 Action DooM 2 I've got better DM levels sitting on my pc then most of whats been released.. i'll have to upload =) 3 DRE, everyone agrees on this =) 4 have to say Doom 3 in Doom 2, cause it is actually balanced 5 Doom 3 in Doom 2 =).. really need to think of a name for that mod 6 hmm.. I'd probably say RTC again, as so much time and detail must have gone into all those patches made. 7 RTC 8 hmm.. undecided Also, should add best Weapon Designer, best graphic designer etc. 0 Share this post Link to post

The problem with DRE wasn't that it just had bad levels. It was much more: The levels were bad at worst and on the low end of mediocre at best, all the enemies were quite unbalanced, the weapons sucked, the music was ripped, it was no fun to play and the whole thing was just one big disaster. It's this massive combinations of incompetence and ignorance that will forever place this wad on one of the top spots of most infamous WADs ever. 0 Share this post Link to post

Vegeta Posted December 27, 2004 BEST SINGLE-PLAYER WAD OF 2004 RTC-3057 BEST DEATHMATCH WAD OF 2004 I don't play Deathmatch WORST WAD OF 2004 Fortunatly, I don't know, this year I didn' hated any wad. May be that "Resident Evil mod" a really bunch of randomaly ripped and sucked graphics that claims to use graphics made by the authors of Resident Evil. DRE is a piece of art if you compare both. BEST WEAPON-ADD ON OF 2004 DOOM 3 in DOOM 2 (That's not surprising from me) BEST MONSTER ADD-ON OF 2004 DOOM 3 in DOOM 2(not only the sprites I'm working on, but also the behavior Dartmerc is adding to them) BEST GRAPHICS OF 2004 RTC-3057 and Action DOOM BEST GAMEPLAY OF 2004 RTC-3057 and DOOM 3 in DOOM 2 BEST AUTHOR(S) OF 2004 Shaviro, DSM, Scuba Steve and KRoNoS 0 Share this post Link to post
