Someone277 Posted May 30, 2020 I've played most official wads like Sigil, Final Doom, Doom 1 and 2. What are some other Wads you recommend? 0 Share this post Link to post
TheNoob_Gamer Posted May 30, 2020 https://www.doomworld.com/cacowards/ Cacowards are generally a good place to start. I recommend playing most of the stuff there from 2015 onwards. Your question is pretty vague (you don't specify what type of megawad you are interested to play), so start from there. 8 Share this post Link to post
Biodegradable Posted May 30, 2020 (edited) I've mainly been exploring single map or smaller map-set WADs right now, so I haven't had too much experience with many megaWADs. However, right now I've been thoroughly enjoying UAC Ultra. It's an older WAD from 2010 and on the smaller side with just 11 levels, but it did receive an upgrade in 2014. It's really fun and well balanced with cool aesthetics. I think it'd work for you since it doesn't deviate a great deal from the OG Doom level design philosophy and it's a blast to play.

Michael Jensen Posted May 30, 2020 Icarus: Alien Vanguard and Eternal DOOM 2 Share this post Link to post
Mystic 256 Posted May 30, 2020 You should try Sunlust, I really liked that one 2 Share this post Link to post
ReaperAA Posted May 30, 2020 I recommend to try Eviternity A fantastic 32-level megawad that has great level design, awesome visuals (thank to OTEX textures) and a challenging, but fair difficulty curve (later levels are harder than Plutonia, but still easier than most other wads). 1 Share this post Link to post
Deadwing Posted May 30, 2020 (edited) Jenesis, Scythe 1 (then 2), Struggle, BTSX, Evilternity, Deathless, Mano Laikas, Akeldama, Plutonia II, Valiant, Ancient Aliens, etc. Edited June 1, 2020 by Deadwing 4 Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted May 30, 2020 There was a load of great WADs recommended to me for this: 4 Share this post Link to post
smeghammer Posted May 30, 2020 Phobos: Anomaly Reborn is excellent (Doom1, ep 1). Not a megawad, but try vrack2. One of may faves of all time. And it's huuuuge!. There's also compendium which should keep you going for a bit... Many many classic megawads in here. 0 Share this post Link to post
DRM-MAN Posted May 30, 2020 Back to saturn x is a goodie, 5 star recommendation from me. 1 Share this post Link to post
Andromeda Posted May 30, 2020 Alien Vendetta, Perdition's Gate, Speed of Doom in addition to the ones already mentioned. 1 Share this post Link to post
Mangcubus Posted May 31, 2020 Akeldama. It just came out not too long ago, it's good. 3 Share this post Link to post
Doom-X-Machina Posted May 31, 2020 My all-time favourites include: Jenesis Hell Revealed (I & II) Scythe (I &II) Plutonia II Sunlust Eviternity Extermination Day 2 Share this post Link to post
DOEL Posted June 6, 2020 I'd say Alien Vendetta and Scythe 2 are basically required playing. 1 Share this post Link to post

Especially Eviternity and BTSX. Edit: I didn't realise I already put my suggestion in this thread. Edited June 6, 2020 by ReaperAA 0 Share this post Link to post
Mangcubus Posted June 7, 2020 My guilty pleasure: H2H X-mas. It's from the 90s and it's honestly kinda shitty, but it's very charming and I give it a playthrough every other winter. 1 Share this post Link to post
Biodegradable Posted June 7, 2020 Pathogen is really good. It'll beat the shit outta you, but it's really well made. 1 Share this post Link to post
Pixel Fiend Posted June 10, 2020 Guys, I'm doing a video project for "Top 30 (or 20) Doom II Megawad Masterpieces You Must Play". Each wad segment will feature 10 lively 3-second segments of classic Doom gameplay. The graphics will be consistent and pretty. I'm going to showcase megawads that I personally am very fond of but if you think I may overlook something that I should take into consideration then please quote this post in reply. The certain spots in the compilation so far are: Ancient AliensBack To Saturn X Episode 1 Back To Saturn X Episode 2 Dark Universe Eviternity Hell Ground Paradise Refracted Reality Sigil Sunder Sunlust Valiant I'm slowly testing more stuff, including what I have listed in this thread. 2 Share this post Link to post
slayermbm Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) I recommend Nihility: Infinite Teeth. You can find it in this thread: It replaces episode 2 of the original doom. The mood of this wad is simply phenomenal, it's more creepy and disturbing than the vanilla game, adds more challenging enemies, removes the music altogether and replace it with ambient sounds that add to the atmosphere and includes weapons and textures from the alpha build of doom for another change. If you play UV, the difficulty curve gradually accentuates with each level and some maps are really hard. Not slaughtermap hard, but significantly harder than the vanilla game. Its not a megawad, but IMO worth checking out. Edited June 10, 2020 by slayermbm 1 Share this post Link to post
TheLoneliness Posted June 10, 2020 Eviternity, Going Down, Sunlust, Speed of Doom, Scythe 1 & 2 and although I'm not done with Valiant yet, I do recommend it from what I've seen thus far. 2 Share this post Link to post
