A tweak. Changes the plasma shotgun a little <to hopefully make it more useful> and gives slightly adjusted difficulties. Easier ones have simpler monsters for the most part.

Nice... the new plasma shotgun works very well. I'll check the other adjustments you did to the difficulties.Bouncy wrote:http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3238714/alk-plasma.pk3

Re: (released) Alkylation - Episode 1
Hi!
here is an updated version:
http://www.mediafire.com/?lbkf0bc6nihrh24
Changes:
* auto-reload for plasma shotgun: now you can use it like the original dbs (thanks to bouncy)
* enemies fireballs are now slower
* some enemies are weaker
What do you think?

Re: (released) Alkylation - Episode 1
I'm up to Map 4 so far, and while I think the map design is great, some of the enemies are still pains in the behind to deal with considering how much of a punch they pack, especially the chaingunners and Cacos. Might wanna tone down some of their attack power a bit; that part in Map 3 where you get the yellow key took a lot of tries for me because of the heavily damaging fire coming from all sides. Other than that it's a nicely done map set.

Re: (released) Alkylation - Episode 1
Did you play the first version (the one in the id archives) or the updated one?
I still hope someone can give me a comment on the updated version, which I hope is more playable...

Re: (released) Alkylation - Episode 1
Played the version on idgames (update here is unavailable). It's got kind of a STRAIN / Dystopia 3 feel with the beefier monsters and very nice texturing theme. Looking forward to future episodes to see where you introduce more enemy replacements. I think the marine feels underpowered, especially vs. the zombiemen, so that it emphasizes cover vs. the typical dodge-style gameplay. Furthermore, most of the monsters feel like bullet sponges. In this atmosphere I'm not sure I even want the SSG back as there aren't a lot of enemies I feel comfortable skirmishing with. I would like the ability to pop around a corner and slay the new chaingunner dead, though. I don't mind the faster / deadlier projectiles, but the Cyber Baron is a total terror that soaks up rockets, probably because he is blast-immune. I like the Nailgun, though I think the ammo cap is too low. I also agree that the plasma shotgun feels underwhelming. I have no idea what I would replace it with, though. And the rocket trooper is a nice cameo.
