Secrects of DooM Legacy (Lag wise and some trips and traps)

[Hunter-Killerrckt]

1) When you belive that a 56k Will lag during a multiplayer game.. WRONG! DooM legacy has a speical code that makes its Lag-free UNLESS THE 56ker is downloading the wrong stuff... And no 56k can be a server (for some reason..)

2) The Tricks and Traps.. (not the map please)
A) To cause more damage to your opponent or the monster.. Charge at it with a rocket launcher... Will work with Plasma (no use) and BFG. Just Keep Runnin! STOP when needed (NOTE 5 rockets shoot = 5x Rocket Radius = You dead meat!)
Chaingun is good from afar... Same with shotgun but its ment for upclose. USE Super Shotgun and Shotgun ASAP! 'Cause shotgun and SPSG is ment thourgh out the game.
B) DONT HIDE IN THE DARK cause some people has OpenGL on and they can see really good in the dark (teehee I know cause I use OpenGL)
C) Be close to a med-kit or a Stimpack so you can get your HP up faster.
D)Use shotgun to blow people down damaging places like Lava or Nukage Allways usefull
E) Cause the Chain-reaction! Use the rocket launcher or SPSG to blow up a Barrel and watch the Fireworks...... Wow aint it pretty? I Do this.. ALOT and I still get the Frag (Thanks to the person who wrote DOOM LEGACY!)
F) People.. Please.. This is a game.. ONLY a game.. You are not a marine MAGGOT!

Def : SPSG = Super Shotgun

The server waits for each client to send an update to it, and only then will it broadcast an update to all the other clients. And I've jet to see a 56K connection that doesn't have a ping < 100.

Charging at your opponent with a rocket launcher leads to unevitable suicide, especially in close quarters. Besides, 5 rocket for one player with usually 100 health? Not needed. At most you can take 3 rockets after grabbing a megasphere.
Indeed, the chaingun works nice from afar. Also, don't keep the fire button pressed but fire in short bursts of one bullet because that first bullet will always impact with 100% precision.
It highly depends on the situation your in on what weapon you have to use. If you know the player is wounded (low health), you can use a simple shotgun blast from afar to finish him off. Also, the SSG is almost useless in an open map. The normal shotgun is best used afar as well, sometimes hitting more then the chaingun because you cant always have a perfect aim.

B) DONT HIDE IN THE DARK cause some people has OpenGL on and they can see really good in the dark (teehee I know cause I use OpenGL)
Not to mention using F11 in software mode.

C) Be close to a med-kit or a Stimpack so you can get your HP up faster.
Sure, keep camping there. When somebody comes into the room with a SSG and manages to hit you in the face your dead as well. Just keep moving no matter what you do.

Basic DM tactics.

F) People.. Please.. This is a game.. ONLY a game.. You are not a marine MAGGOT!

True indeed. A lot of people over-react when they're losing or act like egoistical jerks when they win.

Oh Mr Exl, but surely you mean the first two shots from the chaingun are always accurate?

And yeah, the way Legacy gives credit for barrel kills rules.

[Hunter-Killerrckt]

Ok... I notice that in 1 Day I get replys... Ok.. Yes Mr.Exl that is true with the SSP Shotgun and C-G but I like to snipe people from afar with a rocketlauncher. Hard to dodge a Rocket when its going at you from the left.. right and right at you. Oh btw you MUST have good lead......

[Hunter-Killerrckt]

The BFG.. Use it if you need to clean up rooms. You have 20 "Traces" Traces are when the BFG Plasma ball explodes- the Traces start looking for 20 or less monster to Frag.
Sometimes it takes a cyberdemon 20 Traces to die. Consider this; BFG plasma ball does around 100 Damage. And the BFG Trace's does around 5-15. Please Go to the BFG 9000 User Manual. To learn more! Oh Last but not least. BFG SUCKS UP your plasma Ammo. Use it when NEEDED. Use Shotgun if need to clean up rooms with 5 - 10 Monsters 10 - 30 use the BFG.
Oh People Theres alot of meaning for the BFG Buts its really is "Big Fu**ing Gun" You havnt seen the BFG True Size.

[Exl]

No offense, but what you've said so far is all common knowledge in deathmatch. Also it's really easy to dodge rockets coming from a far (remember that the doomguy can outstraferun a rocket), so I wonder who you play against.

[Hunter-Killerrckt]

... Ok.. Im Just posting this up for the n00bs not for those who allready know HOW to play doom...

SSG: If you're lagging don't get too close as it makes it more likely you'll miss completely. Stay a little ways away.

Chaingun: like they said, just tap the trigger when you're far away and the shots will be perfectly accurate. It's also quite good close up as you can stay close to an opponent continually strafing and changing direction while spraying them down.

Rocketgun: With mouselook remember to fire at their feet and when rushing an opponent don't fire the rockets in a row but fire to the left and right of them so as to make a wall of rockets they hopefully won't be able to avoid. I find it's also good to fire a rocket or two down a corridor occasionally too as you can hit opponents who might not be in view yet. A lucky frag still counts. :-)

Plasma: I try to move to one side of my opponent while firing far to their other side while I strafe in. That way there is a cresent of plasma balls heading in which will be very hard for them to avoid completely. This works well if you're lagging.

BFG: The BFG is for little girls. Don't use it. :p
