Legacy of Strife v2.3 : It's Coming Sooner Than You Think.

[Mikk-]

The reaver replacement deals no damage, and the weapons are extremely over powered which in my opinion ruins the balance of Strife. Also the Inquisitor replacement has 100,000 health points. Is that really necessary?

Actually, playing this further convinces me that this completely ruins strife. No Sigil? I can beat up the spectres? What? This is disappointing.

I'm with you. This is just replacing the inventive weaponry of Strife with redundant bullet sprayers influenced by Xbox Call of Duty games with unfitting 'homages' to older "cool" games probably made before the author's existence.

I almost lost it when I heard the Diablo town music. The facepalm. Is inclusion of that supposed to be a tribute? Is it supposed to mean "see I am a real retro gamer"? Whatever the meaning it was, it didn't fit and nearly triggered my "HIT F10 AND DELETE IT" instinct


oh and nice job stealing the bts-x hud i'm also sure essel will appreciate that.

[Ghostbreed]

The Diablo theme were only used in town, aka the hub, just like Tristram is the hub in Diablo.
Tiberium know about the HUD, he simply forgot to put the original authors name in there. If you scroll some pages back you see this.

I don't think this is THE mod for Strife but cut him some slack.

thank you ghost breed.

ill fix up the enemies and work on the balance and for reference i gave credit to essel in the credits.txt inside the pk3

"Ptoing & Esselfortium + Blackfish: for the HUD base from BTS:X and the SBARINFO"
this comes right from the credits.txt in the pk3

Fixed the Damage on the Reaver Replacement

What do you mean by that? You mean those minigun guys that kill you super fast, and react very quickly? because they still do that... seriously without having the rocketlauncher or minigun those guys are insanely powerful, take this from someone who played all the build games, doom 2 got the balance right for those kinds of guys.. check out their DPS.
Although they would still be tough and you'd still get you shot without a high powered gun.

the reavers are heavy armored soldiers with assault rifle in the upcoming 2.1

Just thought I'd mention: Stalker legs bleed when they bounce after the Stalker blows up.

[Cire]

Cool Strife mod. How are 2.1 coming along?

[TheMightyHeracross]

Nice bump, bro. I thought there was going to be an update.

[Cire]

Oh, sorry for that.

[TiberiumSoul]

While I have been absurdly busy with Insanity's Requiem I kinda forgot this project even existed and had it not been for Cire's bump it probably would ended up that way. All other things aside, I'm shipping Insanity's Requiem off to backburner central because in all honesty there are all kinds of mods out there for doom but very few for others like Strife, Heretic, Hexen and all the others out there and while as of v2.0 the game was beatable there were many unfinished things that didn't get added. And with v2.1 I plan on adding all these things (now finished after a long night of coding and hot cocoa) into the project because let's face it, Strife really doesn't get enough love.

Nice to see this back from the dead because, as you say, Strife et al don't get enough love.

[TiberiumSoul]

Thanks! I'll see if I can't get this ready to go by tomorrow also quick poll here should the robots (sentinel, stalker, crusader) have damage on their deaths cause if you played 2.0 you'll know that the robots he'll even the turret exploded violently on death but they didn't damage the player only the other npcs so that I'm asking is: should the player suffer from this as well?
