999cop Posted December 31, 2015 which is your most favorite level out of Doom 1 EP1? 0 Share this post Link to post
printz Posted December 31, 2015 Computer Station, and I'm unlikely to be the only one, as it's the most ambitious map from the set. Other maps try hard but lack the style and finesse. 0 Share this post Link to post
Deleted_Account Posted December 31, 2015 E1M3: Toxin Refinery, with Computer Station as a follow up. 0 Share this post Link to post
Marcaek Posted December 31, 2015 I like E1maze7 but only because it's the only map like it in the episode. It bothers me that 90% of E1 replacement maps base themselves on the style of short tunnels with windows over nukage considering the variety in original E1. 0 Share this post Link to post
Shadow Hog Posted December 31, 2015 Y'know, I'm thinking either E1M5 or E1M6, and I'm not entirely sure which, between the two, I like more. 0 Share this post Link to post
ReFracture Posted December 31, 2015 Tough call. I'm going to give it to E1M4 though. Always loved that one as a kid. 0 Share this post Link to post
RUSH Posted December 31, 2015 Tough choice. Episode 1 of Doom is my favorite set of levels in the history of gaming. Every map is brilliant but I'm going to have to go with E1M7. That level is the most complex of the tech base missions and it has a lot of monsters and cool secrets. I also like the music and genuinely epic feeling that you're almost at the final boss stage of the episode. E1M3 comes at a close second because of it's alternative endings and cool backtracking map design. Ahh, nostalgia. Episode 1 is just magical to me. 0 Share this post Link to post
Rayziik Posted December 31, 2015 I'm probably gonna be the odd one out, but I actually really like E1M9. It has such a unique gameplay style compared to the rest of the episode where it keeps you on your toes, even from the start with the imp cage. The faster paced action is something I always love in my Doom. Plus the music track is a perfect fit. 0 Share this post Link to post
SilverIce Posted December 31, 2015 e1m4: Command Control is my favorite. 0 Share this post Link to post
Psycho11704 Posted December 31, 2015 E1M7 is definitely my favorite map. When I was younger, it was always the map that challenged me the most, and still to this day, I consider it the hardest map in episode 1. 0 Share this post Link to post

SavageCorona Posted December 31, 2015 E1M9 cause I'm that kinda guy Of course E4M2 is still better than all of them. 0 Share this post Link to post
AD_79 Posted December 31, 2015 SavageCorona said:Of course E4M2 is still better than all of them. I honestly don't get your undying love for that map. Sure, it's solid, but is it really that good? Better than every other IWAD, or at least UDoom, map? Spoiler Spoiler no On-topic: Doom E1, and in fact most of the original Doom doesn't really appeal to me that much now (parts of E4 being an exception). I guess E1M3 is my favourite of E1? 0 Share this post Link to post
nxGangrel Posted December 31, 2015 I liked all of the E1 levels equally. 0 Share this post Link to post
yakfak Posted December 31, 2015 been revisiting E1 to play in Tyson mode, where mission 5 establishes itself as the most varied and fun - you might have to do a little pinkie punching to begin with and there's lots of resistance even once you've made your way to the secret chainsaw because of the nerve-wracking nature of the dark final room. M7 peters out as soon as you have decent armor while M2 + M3 are massively over-supplied levels. M4 is interesting because of the relative lack of pistol ammo, so you have to cause in-fights and make every shot count... M6 and M9 are a little painful, the secret level being fairly harsh to a pistol wielding player with its chainsaw hidden past the blue door, while M6 has a serious bullet deficiency and no chainsaw at all. 0 Share this post Link to post
wheresthebeef Posted December 31, 2015 I go back and forth from E1M3 and E1M5. 0 Share this post Link to post
Tosi Posted December 31, 2015 I hadn't played E1 in a while so I blazed through it again. When it comes to gameplay, I had the most fun in the later stages, especially E1M6. The secret level is pretty great too. I think that E1M1 is the best looking level though, especially because of the outside area. I also like the look of E1M8, as it's the first level where "hellish" architecture makes an appearence (outside of secrets maybe), and it's the first time a liquid was used as a ceiling flat. The way the Barons are introduced is nice as well. 0 Share this post Link to post
Voros Posted December 31, 2015 E1M3, for the slow and gloomy music (and because of the ridiculously hard to find secrets that made want to look in Doom FAQ 6.666). 0 Share this post Link to post
RightField Posted December 31, 2015 Toxin Refinery. The secrets really make this map stand out. 0 Share this post Link to post
Graf Zahl Posted December 31, 2015 Nothing changed for me, still E1M7, just like in 1993. Best map and best music in the game. 0 Share this post Link to post

I'm proud to say I've discovered its secrets by my own effort, not reading hint books (unlike how I trashed my Doom 2 experience…). Since I started playing Doom after playing more advanced games (such as Dark Forces), I was very glad to discover that even Doom has extensive hidden passages and it's not all plain and straightforward. 0 Share this post Link to post
Voros Posted December 31, 2015 ^ I haven't cheated on e1m3. I finished on my first try, with 0 secrets. I merely wanted to know afterwards what those secrets were, since I couldn't find out myself. 0 Share this post Link to post
