The DOOM Honorific Titles Created by Frank Stajano on 1994 05 01 Andy Kempling hereby conquers the title of DooM 2 Master Exam file name : D2M-ARK.ZIP Title conquered : DOOM 2 Master Author : Andy Kempling Completion date : 1996/08/13 Game and version used : DOOM 2 v. 1.9 CHAL: D2M ARK Andy "Carmack" Kempling 04 17 28 FLR-FLR-FRL : Kempling Substitutions? : Yup, MAP28(Hard) with: MAP13(Hardest), MAP20(Hardest), and MAP24(Hardest) System used : 100mHZ Pentium w/ 16 MB RAM and SB AWE32 Controls used : keyboard + mouse Left Arrow - Strafe Left Right Arrow - Strafe Right Up Arrow - Forward Down Arrow - Backwards Left Button - Fire Right Button - Strafe on - Only for dodging quickly Double Click Right Button - Open Free interpretation : MAP18, Master style. I felt that if I was going weasel out of a HARD, I should do one for a free interp. This is an easy "Hard" -- relatively speaking Comments : I believe that MAP28 should be rated HARDEST because I cant do that one, yet I can do the three HARDEST with no real problems Heck, if I took the time to redo MAP13, I could end With 200-200 Health and Armor, just that that time I forgot about the 2 cacodemons, and that level takes so @$%!^$@ long, I said, who cares, I have 170%. The other 2 I ended with 200-200. Yet I cannot beat MAP28. MAP04 was easy, as it should be The hardest part is the beginning, where there are zillions of shotgun and chaingun guys and you have only pistol. Once you get a weapon, its smooth sailing from then on. MAP17 is my least favorite map. Partially because I can never remember how to beat it. Many Thanks to, I think it was Jonathan "Hunter" Hoof...yes, the guy with every title except Schwartz, for his route...I think it was his, anyway. Dance right before the elevator into the left imp sanctuary, after killing The Baron of Hell. MAP28, I did not complete, partially because it is near-impossible. If you wanna see someone MURDER this level...not in master style... not in Grand Master style....but of all things in TYSON STYLE, get D2T-AVM.zip Its awesome. Hats off to Anton Magleli (AVM)! I think this level should be rated hardest! MAP13, Thanks to watching Andreas "Anthe" Kren's lmp 6 billion times (D2M-AAK.ZIP), was as easy as pie. Just one mistake on this level...after I had collected the supercharge, I remembered a couple of cacodemons I hadnt punished yet so I didnt end with 200-200. And it takes too damn long to record that lmp so I just left it as is. Shouldn't be rated HARDEST. Try HARD MAP20, Gotcha!, was fun, to say the least. Using Andreas "Anthe" Kren's route again (Same zip as MAP13), it was less of a challenge and more like a stroll in the park. But I hate those Pain elementals! Those stupid skulls get too close to quick for my rockets! This map is at MOST a HARD maybe even a MEDIUM. Ended with 200-200% MAP24, and guess who's route I used?? That right, Kren's route Again. He's got some good routes! I suggest if you are going to attempt this level, you download his exam right now. This is an easy level, the hardest part being the thin rails and staying on them. I suggest using the keyboard for that part, as it doesnt require speed nor agility. I designated . to turn left and / to turn right, and took it slow. Dont fall in the pits with the cacodemons, there are no teleports in them. Also, avoid fighting cacodemons on the rails. The reason I use the mouse at all in this level is for accuracy, circle strafing (Watch the First Imp Massacre) and after the teleport with the dead guy hanging over it I shoot the skulls, quickly turn around and shoot the other skulls. You cant turn that fast keyboard. This level is a HARD, but for Keyboarders, should seem more like a medium. Author info : All I really want to say is that I just got and just got on DHT and you should see me again in the DONE entries...This should be my 4th title...D1M, D1SG, D1GM, and D2M More still to come, as soon as I find a new NM level in Doom2.... Oh Yeah, and my Internet address changed from the challenge. Is is not kempling@premier.net but is now at kempling@challenger.net. Happy Fragging!
