[Early/WIP] Chaos Awake - Doom Bible classes in Doom/Doom 2

Post by DrPyspy »

Image

This will be a mod that will aim to integrate the classes from the Doom Bible into Doom/Doom 2. The goal is only to recreate the classes and select weapons from the Doom Bible.

At the moment, the classes are almost direct interpretations of the Doom Bible, but I was considering adding more unique characteristics to the classes. I would appreciate any suggestions, as this is an early work in progress.

----------

Playable Classes

Lorelei Chen
  • Fastest character
  • Draws and fires the pistol quickly
  • Swings fist slowly
  • Cannot increase speed by sprinting
John Pietrovich
  • Fires shell weapons quickly
  • Smaller spread and increased damage with shell weapons
  • Fires rocket launcher slowly
Dimitri Paramo
  • Pretty good at all weapons
  • High health
  • Slowest character
Thi Barrett
  • Faster than average
  • Best at melee combat
  • Low health
----------

Changes in vanilla content
  • Weapons will act differently depending on the abilities of the class using it.
  • The fist has been absorbed by the pistol, you can now right-click to take a swing.
----------

Planned Features
  • Unique player graphics for each class
  • Unique voices for each class
----------

In addition to the classes, I have been working on the Unmaker. The Unmaker is a powerful weapon that will have a rare chance to spawn in place of the BFG. I am working on making the visual effects fit into the Doom style, at the moment it uses the default railgun effects. The weapon itself is not final, as I still need to balance it and make it more satisfying to use. The video below shows off the Unmaker, I have hidden it in a spoiler to prevent people's browsers from dying.

Here is another new weapon. Its called the 'Dark Claw'. It is very bland at the moment, firing insta-kill projectiles with no feedback. What I plan on implementing is a dark cloud that shoots bolts of lightning at nearby demons. The video showcases the current state of the Dark Claw. The map is by Devianteist, and can be found here.

This video showcases a few new additions to the pistol/fist weapon. You now attack right-handed, and there is now an extra frame for lowering/raising the pistol. You will also see that there is a new skin for Thi and Lorelei. This is Virtue's Doomgirl skin. I haven't been able to contact him to see if I can include it in the next release, but hopefully it will appear. (John's face icon is not final, and is there because I was messing around with face graphics earlier.)
