Dron Posted March 7, 2004 In no particular order... Chaingunner (Damn annoying and can kill you before you notice) Pain Elemental (He shoots lost souls all over the fucking place and gives them a bad name) Archvile (His attack is impossible to escape if there's no cover and he can reseruct demons) And I don't get why you all hate the Revenant 0 Share this post Link to post

Doohnibor Posted March 7, 2004 well, the most annoying monster in my opinion would be without a doubt the Baron of Hell! reason: he is so boring to fight. too much hitpoints needed to kill him and at the same time not really a serious threat. (unfair situations aside) whenever i get into a room with 5 or more of them i just wish it would be over already since it is so repetitive. btw. the knight of hell is great. balanced just right. if the baron would be just a little bit more different or have some kind of other attack he probably would be also a great monster. oh, and i also used to be pretty scared by the revenant until i just stopped running away from his rockets! wait until the rocket is almost right in your face and then just make a quick sidestep followed by moving forward and the rocket will need quite some time to catch up with you again. (the key is not to move to early). now you got enough time to run up to the bastard and nail him with two point blank shots from your double barrel. 0 Share this post Link to post
toxicfluff Posted March 8, 2004 Pain Elemental for me. I've never liked enemies which spawn minions rather than fighting themselves. But I don't think they are a bad enemy at all, since they have a very distinct role in the Doom2 roster and require a different strategy to all the other Doom2 monsters. 0 Share this post Link to post
Udderdude Posted March 12, 2004 Arachnotrons are definately annoying .. that damn machine noise they make drives me nuts, and somehow they always manage to be in some sealed off area .. so I can't kill them and make that damn noise stop >:O And they're insanely annoying in large areas too .. you're just sitting there, when suddenly 5 plasma balls hit you in a row and you're toast. #&*@! 0 Share this post Link to post
Draconio Posted March 12, 2004 I think the Icon of Sin is a rather dumb enemy, and the Pain Elemental too but somewhat less so. As for the other monsters it really depends on how they're used. Commandos can be a real pisser sometimes (Like in some of the Plutonia levels). dsm said:Heh, when I played Wolf3d with a sound card, I thought the SS guys were just laughing in a really retarded way. When I first played through map 31, I thought it sounded like they were saying "You're in trouble!" really fast. "Oh? Let's see who's really in trouble around here, you fascist pig!" *Blammm!* Oh and I thought their death phrases sounded like "Retrieve it!", which made nada sense of course. Even after reading what the phrases are supposed to be, it still sounds to me like he says "Shoot! Stop 'em!" and "I'm leaving!". I also think the sounds in Doom 2 sound less German than they did in Wolfenstein 3D for some reason. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jello Posted March 12, 2004 What's a moster? As for monsters. Revenants. In themselves they're extremely cool and effective enemies, but they're often times over used. 0 Share this post Link to post
grutsch Posted March 12, 2004 chaingunner, icon of sin in hell revealed ultra violence... cant kill it. i always thought the nazis in the secret levels said: "ein trottel"..."a stupid motherfucker" "mein leben" can be understood. 0 Share this post Link to post
SunlapseVertigo Posted March 15, 2004 ill add arch-viles, but only when they are with really really large groups of enemies. otherwise i like fighting them, a bit more strategy involved. 0 Share this post Link to post
Arckra Posted March 15, 2004 My least favorite? ..hmm.. that would be the cyberdemon. I cannot stand the sound he makes when he walks. I would reach for the little knob dealie that turns off my sound, but then I wouldn't hear the rockets when they launch. x.x; Then second least favorite would be the lost soul. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fletcher` Posted March 15, 2004 Revenant, only because prick mappers like to put plagues of them in their maps in conjunction with archviles and fucking pain elementals. HAVE YOU MAPPERS NO SHAME? 0 Share this post Link to post

Caco-Puff Posted March 16, 2004 Personally I like the Pain Elemental the most of all the enemies,He has a unique attack.And he blends everything cool about the Cacodemon with a better pallette.I even have a Pain Elemental skin :P 0 Share this post Link to post

Draconio Posted March 16, 2004 Arckra said:Thanks to the Pain Elemental you can get up to 1,000% Kills, or at least on the PSX version. Yeah, must be a quirk of the console version (or vice versa) since in the PC version lost souls don't count for kills. You could possibly achieve that kill score with an arch-vile if you planned it right, but it'd probably be more trouble than it's worth to execute... 0 Share this post Link to post

I tried that on the PC version with the arch-vile. Whoo, not a good idea. Anyhow, I did get a good kill number on Twilight Descends on the PSX version. (Though I personally hate that level...) 0 Share this post Link to post
LlamaGod Posted March 16, 2004 Arch-Viles are the ones I hate the most. Every time I see them, I groan. 'Hunted' in Plutonia was like 'goddamn it'. 0 Share this post Link to post

I always love hearing that sound in a map because it means that somewhere nearby is a Cyberdemon for me to fight... mmm. Yummy. 0 Share this post Link to post
Spidercyberdemon Posted March 17, 2004 The chaingunner? Naw. The Spider Mastermind is much worse. The Spider Mastermind is the chaingunner, except that it has 3,000 HP (compared to the Chaingunner's 60 HP) and is WAY less likely to be hurt. I have seen a Spider Mastermind kill TWO CYBERDEMONS (4,000 Health Points EACH) before dying to the third one. The only reason why none put the Spider Mastermind is because they are extremely rare. They are way harder, though. 0 Share this post Link to post
Arckra Posted March 17, 2004 So long as I can get behind something or keep on moving, the Spidermastermind is pretty easy for me. Its the cyberdemon that I don't enjoy battling it out with. 0 Share this post Link to post

toxicfluff Posted March 19, 2004 Fight both a cyberdemon and a spiderdemon without a BFG - then you'll see which is harder. 0 Share this post Link to post

Then, that's when its a good idea to run a huge circle around them both and only hope to get them to fight eacother. :D Then you can take out the survivor. 0 Share this post Link to post
