Cyb Posted September 21, 2003 Hooray for incoherent headlines that make no sense! Oh yeah, so the Hell Revealed II page was updated after a long, long, long, long, long time of not being updated (I don't recall the last update, and Andy has cleverly removed it as to not tip anyone off) with some awesome news and some awesome new screenshots:For now, enjoy the 31 new hi-res screenshots. The next update will include the final release and it will appear before we hit 2004. I think this project has been in production long enough, don't you?So get your butt over there to check out the screenshots. Awesome. Thanks to Andy Olivera for the heads up (he's also the maintainer of the project now, by the way, so it makes sense that he's guy who told us I guess). 0 Share this post Link to post

Naked Snake Posted September 21, 2003 Holy crap! This must be some sort of mistake :-P And wow, look at the fucking action in those shots man! HARD-FUCKING-CORE! All kidding aside, I'm sure this HR II will be just as a big of a pain in the ass as HR was (and that's a good thing) 0 Share this post Link to post
geekmarine Posted September 21, 2003 Wow, Hell Revealed 2. God, I don't even care. You see, I'm the kind of person who'd probably be dead somewhere in the "init refresh daemon" stage of loading it. I'd never even survive long enough to see the title screen, so what's the point? Sorry, I'm just not a fan of the ultra-hard type levels. I'm good, but not great. 0 Share this post Link to post
Andy Olivera Posted September 21, 2003 I don't recall the last update, and Andy has cleverly removed it as to not tip anyone off Actually, I removed it for three reasons. One, there's no history section. Two, there wasn't anything terribly important in there. Three, and most importantly, the old update only had a month and date and I couldn't remember what year it was posted(probably 2001)... :-) Sorry, I'm just not a fan of the ultra-hard type levels. I'm good, but not great. That's what skill levels are for, and they happen to be well-implemented in the new version. Skill 2 should be somewhere between DooM2 and Plutonia on UV. There's no novice setting, but you don't have to be a DooMGod to beat it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Vile Posted September 21, 2003 The last update was somewhere in the summer of 2000. 0 Share this post Link to post

ukiro Posted September 21, 2003 sargebaldy said:heh, like tantrum? <3 haha, yeah :-) I fell in love with the style back then and it's still my favourite. If I ever release anything again, it'll probably be brick/wood/metal. 0 Share this post Link to post

Still, it'd be great to see HR2 finished - even better would be to see it released and play it. (hope it has the same kick-ass music as the first one) 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted September 25, 2003 The Ultimate DooMer said:(hope it has the same kick-ass music as the first one) If not, then doom2 -file hr2.wad hrmus.wad is always possible. BTW, I take it you are aware that the music is from ROTT, so it was a slightly lazy (if kick-ass) solution by YD and HN. 0 Share this post Link to post
