Hellbent Posted March 22, 2002 What is your favourite DM map and why? If you cite a series or megawad, please be specific of what map(s) in the wad you liked most.

Fredrik Posted March 22, 2002 MAP01 Btw, this belongs in the multiplayer or polls forum. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ralphis` Posted March 22, 2002 Dwango5 map01. Why? Because I own everyone on it 0 Share this post Link to post
pritch Posted March 22, 2002 Map 20 - Alien Vendetta - 'Mishri Halek' Best map ever. Even ZDoom gets a little slow loading to that level.. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Hellbent Posted March 22, 2002 yeah, e1m1 is fun. Maybe I'll make a smaller version of it for doom2. 0 Share this post Link to post
Hellbent Posted March 22, 2002 I think the reason Dwango5 Map01 endures is because of the number of connections and the size of the level. When I look at the mapin an editor and when I play it, I can't understand what makes it so popular. But I think that's it - the shape - where the connections are and the amount of connections. As Ralphis said, "you can always see your opponent." 0 Share this post Link to post
999cop Posted March 22, 2002 if you can observe on d5m1 carefully, you would notice you can do a lot of cool bfg tricks at certain areas, also it has a real nice outdoor area for ssg battles (edit)yeah, e1m1 is fun. Maybe I'll make a smaller version of it for doom2ralph has already made a map similiar to e1m1 for doom2 version. If i didn't remember incorrectly, the wad is supposed to be called the "heh.wad" 0 Share this post Link to post
Liam Posted March 22, 2002 Every map in Dwango5 is absolutely awful save map11. 0 Share this post Link to post
Crendowing Posted March 22, 2002 Dwango5 all the way baby. And UniDoom.Originally posted by Liam the Bard Every map in Dwango5 is absolutely awful save map11. It's a shitload of a lot better than I can make maps...... 0 Share this post Link to post
Erik Posted March 22, 2002 Map01 for sure. Mainly because it has all the elements I want from a dm wad: respawnfragging, bfg tricks, close quarters ssg duels, sound tricks, plasma/rocket cover, requires good movement, non-circular design D5m1 is ok too, but it lacks: sound tricks (mostly), plasma/rocket cover (mostly) movement skills (except for dodging ssg) non-circular design Also I don't find long range ssg duels very exciting compared to the hallway battles in map01. 0 Share this post Link to post
Erik Posted March 22, 2002 Originally posted by deathwarrior MAP11 or D5M14. Map11 is real good for 1on1. D5m14, yuurgh, bfg spam map. It's playable with <50 ping in 1on1 though, more ssg/silent bfg oriented then. 0 Share this post Link to post
Liam Posted March 22, 2002 D5M14 is terrible. It's so poorly designed that it manages to knock doom's weapon balance out of whack. 0 Share this post Link to post

Lüt Posted March 22, 2002 I like city levels the best for DM. Map13 is about the right size for some one-on-one action. Map15 is a tad big though. 0 Share this post Link to post

Lüt Posted March 22, 2002 Originally posted by 999cop map24Yes, Map24 is quite a nice arena as well. Map11 is the smallest map I'll take, and only because it has so many well laid out passageways that you aren't running into the other guy every 30 seconds. 0 Share this post Link to post

Lüt Posted March 22, 2002 Originally posted by Fredrik Perhaps because you're a keyboarder ;) No, just the fact that you're lucky to pick up two weapons and any armor before facing off with the other player. It's fun for a minute or two I suppose. 0 Share this post Link to post

It's fun for a minute or two I suppose. Say that to the people who have been playing this map for like 6 years. It's very interesting because you have to fight to stay alive from the second you respawn (often that one second is all you get). 0 Share this post Link to post
