NEW WORLD RECORDS in Doom Eternal and its add-ons

[Geniraul]

On the 10th of January 2023 a Ukrainian player Absolutemassive established a NEW WORLD RECORD in Doom Eternal in the category 100%/Restricted/Ultra-Nightmare, which is absolutely incredible, because it's one of the hardest things to do in DE! 🔥 The run was done in 1:43:05.18 LRT.

P. S. Obviously, it wasn't yesterday, but as of 2023.03.01, this is the current world record in this combination of categories.

Edited May 6 by Geniraul : April 14: Topic transformed to the one dedicated to all the new world records in Doom Eternal and its add-ons rather than just one record. April 28: The name of the game clarified in the title of the thread in order to avoid confusions.

Thank you, I only got enough at the early game to get through it on Ultra Nightmare once and then abandon it forever, which is to say I was terrible at it. Watching someone absolutely dismantle it is eye-opening. I didn't even think to try this PB-melee-PB-melee thing he does.

Glad it was helpful, I hope it will motivate you to not give up and inspire to try some further improvements!

 

EDIT: Here is the link for 4 new world records in different categories in The Ancient Gods - Part One:

 

 

I will be very thankful if someone from the moderators joins these topics together by inserting that post into this thread.

haw, I doubt I'll ever see the early game again. After I beat the campaign on ultra nm the best feeling was relief that I'll never have to play without meat hook ever again haha. I honestly think Doom:E without meathook is like a 7.5 game instead of like a 9.5/10. Kind of awesome that 30 years later, the SSG is still the most fun weapon in gaming

 

But it's shocking to see how they make a mockery of fights I had to be careful on, nor does he seem bothered to be sitting at 20 life with alot of fighting to go. I was really unprepared for what such powerhouse gameplay looks like. Almost like some insane auto-turret or something

 

Also makes me curious what monitor he plays on to be at 250 fps? Most are 240? Or maybe he just picked that number? I can't remember if you can or not. I play on that 280 fps alienware but often miss my old 4k TV and rtx3070 110 fps. Hell knights and barons were much less obtrusive at that fps

On the 2023.03.25 Ender_Eli established the new world record in Doom Eternal in the category Any%/Unrestricted/Nightmare. The run had been done in 2:32:05 LRT and 2:58:59 RTA and was only verified on the 2023.05.04 by Quarth. It may be due to what the runner had mentioned in the "Notes" section to his run:

This is the very first run in this combination of categories.
