40oz Posted March 16, 2015 Some great answers in this thread. Hell Revealed 2 is one I hold close. I think Icarus and TNT have great MAP01s too. Plutonia is a great one too, since it brings each of Doom 2s new monsters into the first map, which really sets the scene for the rest of the wad. E4M1 is a great one too, although the remaining maps living up to its intensity could have been cooler. 0 Share this post Link to post
Super Flip Posted March 16, 2015 Plutonia and TNT's Map01 really set the mood for the respective IWADs. TNT especially with the music and berserker pack start. Valiant's Map01 is also pretty great and throws you right into the thick of things. 0 Share this post Link to post
driftyloon Posted March 19, 2015 I agree that Map01 in Alien Vendetta is awesome and so is TNT's. I think that Doom 64's staging area was atmospheric and set the game in motion. 0 Share this post Link to post

These guys weren't exactly afraid to be a little conceptual, haha. Sacrament's MAP01 nightmare sequence is another very clever statement. 0 Share this post Link to post
