Am I the only one having ammo issues in this? They took away the pistol with unlimited ammo and you cant kill with your fists anymore (because omg muh blood punch). They give you 1 fuel point for the chainsaw and try to spawn in zombies (so that you can farm them for ammo) to supplement the lack of a lethal weapon with no ammo. But, I three times now have come across an area in the game where I have run out of ammo and zombies do not spawn in. I had to WAIT for the shoulder grenade to recharge to kill the remaining enemy or two, and with the last one I just let the shield fag (whatever the non soldier one is) and mancubus kill me so that I didn't have to run in circles doin nothing while waiting for a grenade to reappear
Is this really the best nu-Id can do? Why did they take away punching stuff to death and the pistol? Am I supposed to play in pussy mode to avoid this issue that shouldn't be there?
I played on Nightmare and never had a problem with ammo. Stop being a shitter.
Jayden Miller
If you didn't have an ammo issue then youre bsing or you think I'm too young to die is the same thing as nightmare
Lincoln Robinson
Once I got all the ammo upgrades I only had one issue with ammo throughout the whole rest of the game. If you use all tools available to you, you should do fine with ammo. I never used the pistol in Doom 2016 anyway. I played on Ultra Violence
My main issue is with the marauders. I'm fine with hard enemies, but there is NO EXCUSE for having them be invulnerable to the BFG AND Crucible. It's just ridiculous at that point
Kevin Martin
>NO EXCUSE for having them be invulnerable to the BFG AND Crucible. well i think they just didnt want you to cheese him out like a chump
Zachary Hill
I played completely through BOTH I'm too young to die and nightmare, and never once had that problem. Sorry, OP.
Connor Adams
Having an enemy you can't just insta-delete keeps interactions fresh. You can cuck the cyberdemon (tyrant) with 1 crucible charge, but you stlil have to be smart when approaching the mauader. Also, you're just using the wrong super weapon. Stagger him with the SSG, whip out the unmaykr, and unload. 8 argent energy later and you've ripped him in half.
Nathan Butler
I used the pistol in 2016 ocassionaly on lower level enemies so that I didn't waste ammo. if you upgraded it all the way the charge shot became really useful and reloaded quick I haven't gotten all the ammo upgrades so maybe its just that, but still, I feel like this shouldn't be an issue. Ive got two of them thus far. And you should be able to kill stuff with your fists, I mean you could in 2016, no blood punch required.
Oliver Rivera
you *can* hit him with the BFG but you have to do it when he can't raise his shield, like when he's in the middle of a jump.
Colton Torres
The laser pistol was the gayest shit ever made in any fps game.
Caleb Wilson
How could you stomach using a fuckign pea shooter and not get cancer + hiv combo injected into your bloodstream? You must already have high immunity.
Logan Taylor
You just need to learn to move a lot more. The ammo mechanic is there to teach you this because movement becomes more and more important in higher difficulties (and especially in Battlemode).
Zachary Brooks
And yet it meant I didn't have this stupid ammo issue. Taking that and melee damage away was just dumb
Adrian Walker
>Am I the only one having ammo issues in this? lol where the fuck have you been, this is the single most contentious topic on Yas Forums right now and has been all week
Benjamin Parker
Git gud
Henry Parker
>How could you stomach using a fuckign pea shooter because I only used it sparingly to try and kill imps and such.
>You just need to learn to move a lot more. I do run. Im not standing in place shooting aimlessly. Im saying that there are areas where zombies do not spawn which means the chainsaw mechanic doesn't work because theres not enough fuel to kill the bigger demons still running around which means im left with the grenade launcher and flame belcher, both of with have pretty long reload times which means more running and not killing stuff which is the point of a first person shooter. give me fists and it might be fairer to do something like this but they dont
Alexander Rivera
tripfag get out
Kayden Gomez
I've been in that situation a couple times as well but it really just needs a patch to address it, either make punches lethal again or fix the locations where fodder fail to spawn.
if you watch high level players, they don't have ammo issues. I honestly wonder if they didn't intend this whole ammo 'meta' at all, nor to make ammo scarce, but simply added the concessions like regen chainsaw fuel for players whose aim isn't great
Aiden Richardson
Fodder is always spawning. You're not looking hard enough.
Charles Stewart
That'd require me to find someone besides your sister to bone
Alexander Rivera
this game is a boomer filter lmao
David Rivera
So what gun do you guys use to take down Marauders? Ballista seems to work great against them.
Nolan King
>Fodder is always spawning. You're not looking hard enough. When im locked in a small hall way on mission 4 with two sets of intermittent laser grids I can be SURE that there is no fodder. As I said its only happened a few times but as said it does happen. It needs patched or melee damage needs to come back
Alexander Sanders
patrician, the marauder actually feels like a rival even if it isn't the same guy, because you actually have to take him seriously no matter how much ammo you have for your overpowered bullshit cannon
Jack Davis
I'm playing in Nightmare and don't have problems. Stop sucking dicks and get good.
Jaxon Diaz
>wahh my aim is shit and I waste all of my shots >cater the game to me because bad players shouldn't be punished for being bad
ss then ballista immediately. If you're good you can pinpoint the distance where he attacks you immediately so you lock him in the pattern of taking everything in his face until death, like a faggot he is.
Zachary Perry
Change guns?
Landon King
and when all your guns are empty?
Brayden Morgan
Does Marauder take damage after that first hit when it staggers?
Michael Diaz
Not him but if you run outta of ammo kinda quick early in the game when you only have 3 or 4 guns and are on a higher difficulty
Grayson Flores
What are you even shooting at if you're just through arena transitions lol? Just find some ammo or switch your guns. If you're completely out of ammo run through to the next arena since you fucked up. Do I have to figure out everything for you? Damn scrubs.
Yeah but it's faster to bitchslap him with another as well while he's dozing off.
Angel Powell
im doing my nightmare run right now user i will prove myself in probably a day or two
Andrew Baker
I COULDNT RUN TO THE NEXT AREA OR BACK FAGGOT The doors were locked. But then what do I expect from a trip fag, you probably haven't even played the game
Colton Rodriguez
yes but you pretty much need the quickswap ability, I forget if it's a rune or what, to be able to hit him in time. the ssg reload specifically is way too slow to hit him a second time, even with the speed upgrade. I favored the ballista with him later on, the charged arbalest shot is perfect for him because you get a stagger off the impact, then the secondary detonation staggers him again for a nice long window. I've found he can be a bit buggy with the ballista though and is sometimes able to block when he shouldn't be.
Owen Morales
this is how you know a game is near perfect. the only criticism of it are people saying they're bad at it. the pistol was shit and if you just use the chainsaw whenever it's been charged up you barely even have to go for ammo pickups (which are also plentiful). >Am I supposed to play in pussy mode to avoid this issue yes, switching to an easier difficulty is what regular people do when they discover the gamemode they're playing is too hard for them
Colton Gonzalez
wow you are super retarded stop typing >just run through the barrier that deliberately stops you from progressing lol it's not hard >just find some ammo that doesn't exist lmao jackasses like you who defend objective flaws are why people double down on shitting on popular games
Aiden Wood
wait does the chainsaw always refill to 1 charge after a fight or something? ive been never using it because i never see jerry cans and didnt want to be fucked without ammo after shooting each gun 5 times. if it auto refills they should make that more clear, it didnt before
Dominic Harris
I've just finished it on uv, did icon of sin on the first try. Should have went with nightmare. At uv the game was only hard when i've visited a level for the first time and confused myself into a corner. Also right now steam shows me less than 20% of players finished the game at ANY difficulty. Does 4/5 of playerbase consist of fucking journalists or what?
Jackson Bailey
>not playing in Nightmare right away Are Yas Forums consolefags?
Nicholas Hall
Resource management is part of the game. Fodder demons are a resource and if you fail to manage your usage of them for health/armor/ammo then you deserve to be punished for it. Unlimited sources of damage like the pistol or punching make resource management meaningless and only caters to the worst players, who never learn from their mistakes.
>if you just use the chainsaw >if you just use the chainsaw >if you just use the chainsaw >if you just use the chainsaw READ MY POST YOU ARTIFICUAL SLIT When there are no enemies to farm you cant use the chainsaw. In the old ones you coulda used the chainsaw on the enemies because there was no gay fuel requirement but now HURR DURR GAME MECHANIC HURR DURR
Brody Jones
Load the previous check point because you failed that section.
Hudson Nguyen
Wrong again. If there's a barrier it means you are in an arena and fodder is spawning. Try harder, retards.
Luke Sanders
chainsaw has a regen just like nades and flamethrower, you will always have 1 fuel eventually. you should leave jerry cans to fill up past that to rip n tear the 'big' guys aka everything that isn't fodder. it's fucking annoying that everything from cacos to gargoyles and drones require 3 fuel, I don't think there's a single enemy that only takes 2.
Christian Ward
No you don't. I played through Ultra-Violence and there wasn't a single time where I was "out of ammo" where there was nothing I could do to refill it.
I will be starting nightmare this weekend and I can guarentee it's the exact same. You're likely just not good at the game.
Christopher Price
>Dude doom guy being able to punch stuff to death is dumb Wow excellent point. I too think that in a football game you shouldn't be able to throw the ball
Adam Howard
Use the chainsaw you mongoloid.
Christian Wood
yeah this shit just feels bad to me and id rather not play, really enjoyed the game but not enough ammo to have fun and ammo refill mechanics are retarded and unfun
Zachary Powell
>he didn't read the op >he didn't read any of the thread just leave if you aren't gonna pay attention queer
Zachary Reyes
doom is a shooting game not a punching game you mongoloid
Justin Turner
shit game design, original doom gave you fists and the chainsaw to compensate for running out of ammo because they knew that the number of monsters being thrown at people required precise ammo managment. this game is dog shit and doesn't even care if the player is literally stuck and cannot continue even if they are skilled enough to beat strong enemies with melee. fuck off
Jaxson Allen
You got filtered kid. Learn to aim and resource management. Get good, scrub. Lmao'ing at your life.
Tyler Barnes
holy shit I was just watching some vids just to see how console shitters play this on nightmare, turns out they don't also hear this when they shoot from the shotgun there's a friggin time slow what the fug!
Liam Lopez
I have occasionally run into situations where there's only heavies left and I don't have ammo to deal with them.
But there's never been an issue of there being not enough ammo in general. If you are running into that issue it means you are either wasting a fuck ton of ammo on misses or using the wrong tool for the job, or you are chainsawing too early (before you have half-drained ammo of every type)
Austin Morales
>every doom game before this one you could punch >DUDE ITS A FPS XD LMAO Yes I too agree there should be no dunking in a basketball game.
Elijah King
no, you guys are actually fucking stupid. it is objectively possible to get softlocked into a situation where it is impossible to generate ammo. I don't know if it's a bug that fodder won't spawn sometimes or what but it happens. Eternal is a good game but it's new and hasn't had the usual wave of balance patches yet, you don't have to defend it like it's your daughter's fucking virginity.
Nathan Foster
agreed, running the ball in football should be banned, its a throwing game.
Cameron Fisher
doomguy could punch in all of the games, berserk has been in every doom game
