Mildoom is inspired by the USMC's attempt at using Doom for training purposes. I've slapped together Doomy styled versions of real world marine corps issued weapons. Pretty fun with the standalone BrutalDoom monsters or really anything that makes the game a bit harder.
Final Mildoom offers 14 weapons for your shooty shoots pleasure.
Op-for is a full enemy roster now some variants as of RC3.
The final iteration has headshots for most OpFor enemies in (1mildoom-opfor.pk3) adjustments to weapons, lots of little QoL things I've already forgotten, check it out yourself!
Rambo:
Start with the M249 with unlimited ammo, a knife that deals good damage and unlimited ammo for your rocket launcher when you find it. You take 2x damage.
DoomSlayer:
No reloading required, generally easy.
Fair and Balanced:
What this started out as, reloading for all guns except the M249. A bit of a challenge if you're not on your toes.
Born to Kill:
Hard mode, same as FnB but 5x damage taken as was in marine1.wad. Hope you like dying to unfair bullshit.
Decided to delve back into this. 1.5 is an interim release, want more reload animations and hoping to get an OpFor pack released in the near future. Added reloading animations for a few of the guns, reworked a couple of things to be nicer.
The riot shield is a bit buggy, sometimes it'll stop you in your tracks, but very overpowered if you walk slowly into enemies you can trap them against a wall or guide them out of the way.
This looks amusing. If it is inspired by the USMC's version, which featured quintuple damage, then you may consider (and not to go full-on Hideous Destructor mode, because that thing goes way, way too far) trying some adjustments to the sheer speed of the Player Classes. Or, at least a second version of the mod, with the explicit intent of incorporating insane multiplayer populations. Then, you build maps with massive slaughter-esque creature placements that require certain BossDeath-flagged opponents to die before advancing to the next stage. In other words, go for the full-on Warhammer 40K vibe. Only, don't make it into a fuggin' Battle Royale clone--just have it so co-op requires some measure of finesse in the players since you can't rely on super-speed to circle-strafe every encounter.
I'm thinking the idea of slowing down players would be a cool feature especially if I could put in sprinting, make it sort of early 2000s fps gameplay. Probably slow down the harder class the most when he's taken damage. Not exactly what you're getting at but having monster spawns throw up more monsters could be pretty fun as the guns are all pretty powerful.
Oh that looks like a nice mod to play. Mods like this are always cool to play. By the way you should add some cvar options for additional tweaking so that players can fine tune the game balance a bit more. Also is there a plan to add a method to increase accuracy of the weapons? For example when a player stands still, crouches or uses the iron sight he will have better accuracy than firing on the move but it for faster packed action it shouldn't be "mandatory". Or alternatively when the player fires in burst the projectiles should be in a tight pattern so to encourage the player to not use "full auto" all the time at mid-long range.
From the few minutes I have played of it so far the Remington shotgun seems to be better for mid ranged combat than the pistol. The Infantry Assault Rifle is fairly inaccurate but it seems to make it up at least with damage.
The shotgun, super shotgun and the pistol firing effect sounds a bit too weak given how much damage they do now. Their firing sound also gets canceled when the weapon reloading sound gets played.
The super shotgun needs some tweaking as its fires its 2 barrels way too fast, there should be a bit more delay so that the player has greater control of it.
Also if you are going to add sprinting, please make it not so that like about 1-3 minutes the player gets tired but instead the player should have a much longer stamina.
Thinking I'll add in baddie health cvar in the 'OpFor' enemies companion mod.
Here's a progress update on that.
I like the idea of adding in some accuracy features, especially a burst fire. Would like to preserve as much compatibility as possible others' maps so stuff like speed adjustments and crouching aren't something I'd like to delve into. Took real sounds for these weapons recorded in kind of bad circumstances, should probably look into mixing them to feel more weighty.
I love my weird ssg, feels more interesting to have to finesse it.
Mildoom 2 bugfix Doomslayer class was janky. Reworked weapons to not ever enter a reload state. Apologies for the constant bumping of my own thread. Just was not sitting well with me.
EDIT: Didn't playtest at all. Doomslayer class works now.

That's reasonable that you don't want to adjust the speed due to map design. As for the sound I hope you can work out something with that, if possible it should sound like a small explosive is being set off, not like a hand grenade but with whatever gunpowder amount those cartridges have.

For me it awkward to control the gun more finely and it often happens to me that I accidentally fire off another round because how easy it is to trigger the fire.

Link in dead. Only working one is 1.5. Any way we can get a new one?
