So, Unlike last week, where there was only ONE lonely map
uploaded to the archives, this week we have a veritable
smorgasbord of delectable options available to us. There were a
few regular single player wads as well as a bunch of deathmatch
stuff and, as a bonus there were three megawads - two of them
deathmatch megawads. There are also a bunch of other updates
from around the DOOM community, so without further ado, let us
begin (as always) with the new maps on the archives then move on
to some of the news from around the world of Doom and then on to
youtube videos of game play that people have posted this week.
P.S. All of these maps are direct linked in my personal back
up of the archives along with GOD KNOWS how many others for
Doom, Doom2, Doom3, ROE, Wolfenstein 3D, Castle Wolfenstein,
Duke 3d, Strife, Hexen, Heretic and more
here
Also, because of the sheer volume, I was not able to play any
of these maps, but I did get some screenies for you.....
=============================================================================
So, first, let me start with the single player maps....
Brutalist Doom
Description : Brutalist Doom is a WAD that retextures Doom to a
have a Brutalist architecture.
Doom II
Alternative Story *
Following your defeat of the Spider Mastermind, you step through
a doorway and
emerge from hell to see the green fields of Earth!
Or at least, they were green fields, once. Three years have
passed since you
were shipped off to the Martian moon bases, and in that time,
Earth has been
undergoing its second industrial revolution. Under the banner of
progress,
the almighty Union Aerospace Corporation has poisoned the
atmosphere with
pollution and covered the Earth in an endless concrete jungle.
A nearby pool of blood (there are no rabbits any more) reveals
that you're not
the only one who came through the portal. The demons have
already come
through before you and begun their invasion of Earth en masse.
Facing
overwhelming odds, your outlook is bleak, but it's a bleakness
tempered by the
knowledge that the UAC has already ruined the planet anyway.
Even if you do
manage save Earth, it might not even have been worth saving.
Screenie from map 15, Doom2 (I believe)

process from map1 to map2! be embarrassed by
everything!

Bricky
Description : That's a map I made in 2013, not sure about when,
I think it was in august, only my brother and
darkwave played this map
Also:
Known Bugs
: Just missing textures because I mapped it like a
real jackass and it's a f*ckin' mess to see from
DB2
Based on that
description I don't think I'd wast MY time on it but here
you go....

Lurking Evil
Description : You find yourself
in a hostile environment, deal
with it.
Well,
that pretty much describes Doom, so doesn't really tell you
much. Only one way to find out....
 
That first picture (comes up when you load the wad) doesn't
really say "Lurking Evil" to me, unless the author is making a
statement. hmmmmmmmm

GZDoom Speedmapping Session #1
Description : I set out to make a megawad in under one hour.
This is the result.
So, as
you might have guessed, this is the lone non - deathmatch
megawad uploaded to the archives this week. Since it was done in
under an hour, I can't imagine that there is much there to
impress.... Had to see....
download link
=======================================================================================
So, now we get
to the deathmatch maps of which there are 4.
Bucket DM 2 -
The
first of two megawads in the deathmatch section this week
Description : BUCKETDM2 is the sequel to the "popular" DM
megawad, BUCKETDM. 32 small-to-medium levels
guaranteed* to provide hours** of competitive
enjoyment***. This installment includes redesigns
of many previous maps, as well as brand new
creations. Also included are 35 new music tracks!
I can't
say as I'm a fan of multiplayer - I've always enjoyed SP,
myself - but when you have 32 maps to choose from in DM, it HAS
to be a good time.

Fast DM
Description :
FastDM is a fast paced, 33 level deathmatch
megawad.
NOTE: this dm pack contains a dehacked/bex patch which does the
following things:
1. Makes the pistol shoot two puffs per shot and increases its
rate of fire
2. Makes certain monsters too tall to get out of the cage in
MAP30
3. Dramatically lowers the health of some monsters (for MAP30)
All maps made by 75 AKA jwaffe.
Maps: MAP01-MAP33
PK3 format is temporary, the final release will be wad format
for compatibility with odamex
- The maps are made for jumping, though should work without it
too.
- Crouch is not needed or recommended
- The maps are hexen format
- Some maps contain thing bridges (i.e., things with z height)
- Do NOT run these maps with infinite thing height / plasma bump
bug enabled.
Again, not much of a DM player but
here's another megawad designed to give you hours of DM pain and
pleasure. If that's what your "thang" is, I'd give it a go....

gruDM
Description :
This is an accumulation of deathmatch levels I
have made. There is no set theme. Some are parts
of coop levels in progress, some are just spaces
I created for the purpose.
A Duel
- Duel map shaped like an A with a bridge.
X Duel
- X shaped duel map..
Octagon Duel
- Octagon shaped duel map (imaginative, huh!)
Pentagram Deathmatch
- A Deathmatch map with a sequence of six
switches, which unlock a two switch
combination, giving access to larger guns
and more play area.
Tank Deathmatch
- A small base with two tanks in a large room.
In one tank is a rocket launcher, the other,
a plasma gun. Using the computers in the
rooms will drain the tanks, trapping anyone
caught inside for 30 seconds..
Not much else to say, really.....
Enjoy!
