I made some random mod for Doom. Don't know why I didn't post it on the ZDoom Forums 'till now. Either way, I'll probably get more feedback here than I did on Zandroum. (I assume this community is bigger since it's been around longer)
Spoiler: Classes
Soldier:
Role= Vanilla
Ability= Zooming
Regen= 2 HP per every 210 tics (6 seconds)
Pros: Vanilla gameplay, extra starting ammo
Cons= None
Brawler:
Role= Tank
Ability= Powerful fisticuffs! Like a real man!
Regen= 2 HP per every 210 tics (6 seconds)
Pros= Higher defense and attack
Cons= Slower
Runner:
Role= Speedster
Ability= Lesser zoom
Regen= 2 HP per every 210 tics (6 seconds)
Pros= Attack and walking speeds are higher
Cons= Lower attack and defense, slows down below 30 HP
Tactician:
Role= High-risk, high-reward
Ability= Bouncy fire balls of explosive goodness
Regen= 5 HP per every 210 tics
Pros= Higher damage
Cons= Lower defense
There's some rare custom monsters, but I won't name 'em
since they're secret jokes.
All vanilla monsters got an HP buff.
For example: all human(?) enemies have 100 HP, the same as
the player has.
I also made sergeant have a stronger attack and Cyby uses the previously mention cluster rockets.
Spoiler: Other Features
Random Spawner for EVERYTHING.
Altered some decorations to show more light and/or be destructible.
Gain HP every few seconds of being idle.
(resets when entering other actor states)
Will vary between classes at one point, so I have the HP and tics determined in the classes section of this post
Evil Eye spawns weapons and monsters every now and then and can be killed. Drops a special weapon upon death that can't be gotten normally.
The link leads to a file folder on Mediafire to make it easier to update.
A list of where I got various sprites and such are in a text file placed in the Mediafire folder. (I somehow broke my post layout when I tried to add another spoiler)
I'm open to any suggestions you guys have. Also, tell me if you find any bugs with some details on them.

Uhm... so... I played for a few minutes, not even that really, I just played the first map... I could go on and on about this, but I think I can sum it up by saying this: when the poster stated it randomized everything, he meant it. Give it a try and you'll see what I mean.

It may seem like the random spawners and HP buffs make it hard at first, but it won't seem that way once you get more than a small pistol or the Chaingun. Once you get other weapons, you'll actually feel overpowered. (which is the main reason for the enemy HP buff)

-BFG 10K and Laser Chaingun are now missile based.
-BFG 10K can't be used with no ammo.
-Evil Eye is less spammy, is able to be gone through, and got a HP buff.
-Hyper Shotgun is now weaker and is missile based.
-Plasma Shotgun now fires 10 missiles.
-Shotgun Guy is nerffed

I like it. It's pretty fun and challenging.

Two things.
1. There's a poll related to the random spawner.
2. I'm thinking of adding some starting weapons to make the classes more unique from each other and have no ideas, so anyone have suggestions for the starting weapons? After all, everything being diverse is extremely important.
Also

Glad you like it. It's always nice to hear such wonderful feedback about one's work.

Update~
Yeah, I bet ye thought this was dead, huh? Nah, I just couldn't think of anything to do for this mod.
Anyways, this is a rather small update. I basically added a new weapon.....Or modified an old one(?) Basically, the Plasma Rifle has been transformed to act in a similar way as my Plasma Shotgun did; it now releases bursts of plasma.
Yes, this probably will take out a Cyber Demon in around 10 seconds 1 second.
Edit:
I just calculated the damage. Projectiles * Damage * Tics each could hit. The equation ended up being "(1,9) * 8 * (1,24)".
With this in mind, lowest possible damage is a decent 8, highest is a whopping 1728.
wow now this is hard as hell
