What are the worst level packs?

This might open up a cannery of worms, but I'm interested in playing some of the worst level packs. I would say total conversions, but there doesn't need to be any different graphics or new enemies. No Terry Troll wads, please.

I prefer level packs instead of single levels so I can really soak in the author.

Except for a couple of maps, mainly by Vader, the ZDoom Community Map Pack has some real stinkers.

Edit: Shit I meant ZPack sucks.

Edit: Download it and only play the following levels...
- e1m7
- e1m8
- e3m7
- e3m0

30,000 Levels or an old classic such as the The Sky May Be.

the master levels

The Chambers of Death Trilogy & Doom Battlefields - four forgettable megawads in one download.

Mattbratt's Level Pack.

What's with this hate? They're just challenging levels with ZDoom effects added in. You people are hating them like they're Call of Dooty or such.

But Call of Dooty was hllarious!

This one still takes the cake for worst ever:

About ZPack:

The mod definitely was underwhelming as it was released. There were some levels in there that should have been dumped before release and the level order also was not the best.

There was still enough salvageable content but it required quite a bit of reworking to be fun to play.

Yeah, BTSX is the worst, at least in the "what I expected VS what I got" department. I can't remember a bigger disappointment in all pwads.

Chambers of Death packs are cool imo. Very funny\surreal and the soundtrack is just incredible. I played the first one during a difficult period in my life and at some point I just started laughing hysterically due to how ridiculous the levels were and how absurd the world seemed at that moment, it was a combination of sadness and joy. It's kind of a special wad for me because of that.

Heard a lot of similar comments about buttsex. Why was it a disappointment? cba to spend 15seconds to download the wad and check it out myself.

Personally I'd take it further and say anything by joe-ilya :P

A bit hard to explain but basically it was a very promising-looking project with all new graphics, a unique style and some great mappers participating. I was expecting a new Alien Vendetta or something of that magnitude, then it came out and was just kinda... okay. Well-made but not even close to being mindblowing or inspiring, and very repetitive too.

I'll be honest, the birthday map he made for me was pretty good. I just wish he'd find a niche and then stay in it.

Careful, people who played each map a hundred times and know them all by heart down to the last vertex will say that you're dumb for feeling this way

Please rename the thread to "BtSX: roxxorz or suxxorz, part n+1".

I'd kinda agree. But his map in Nova II was pretty could to be honest.

oh cool, it's gonna be another one of these threads again.

oh man, this good mapset made by people I dislike doesn't meet the obscenely high standards I've set for it based off of substantial hype I've invented and projected on to the very people I dislike and who are responsible for this good mapset. and they have the nerve to suggest I have an agenda!

*submits post to thread looking for worst mapsets*

I'm sorry a Doom PWAD didn't cum in your mouth but you've only got yourself to blame for that expectation.

Maxy doom of course.
