Is the multiplayer shit or do I just suck
Sorry i forgot this board is mostly twitter-immigrants now. I'll keep it to 3 sentences or less to avoid overwhelming you. Hope you guys are nice and stocked up on ritalin for the quarantine.
it sucks because of the laggy as fuck p2p connection. would be fun if it were for the garbage latency and hit detection and lagging warping everywhere
how do you feel about those annoying slayer players who just rush into your face and qucik swap ballista shotgun repeatedly. fucking ruins the game with that amount of DPS, and demon hit boxes so large that it's such a dominant tactic and can destroy demon in a few seconds. demons can't really out DPS him either, so the slayer kills a demon, regain his lost HP from the kill and can 1v1 the other. it's retarded and unfun when any slayer plays like this. and because of the horrible lag, you don't even know what happens before you are already dead to it.
In 20 games I have never lost a game as the slayer, and have collectively lost 3 rounds, and one of those was when I accidentally stepped in lava.
I have versed a couple well coordinated teams who tried what you described, but honestly it doesn't matter. If you know what you're doing on Slayer i really don't think they can kill you.
Are boosters the numbers in the bottom right of your name card? What does that mean?

not him but isn't that how you're supposed to play?
The multiplayer is alright,it's a good continuation if you want more of DOOM but it's unbalanced in favor of Slayer and also got major desync and lag issue.
That type of play can always be punished depending on your demon type. For example Mancubus punishes overly aggressive slayers HARD. Flamethrower has an insane amount of DPS. A clever ambush with a mancubus from behind can kill a fully healed slayer in seconds. Once you get better at the game, surviving 1v1 against the slayer isn't as an impossible of a prospect. Arch-vile in particular is incredible at staying alive for a long time. Flamewall+teleport away and most slayers will have trouble finding you if you executed your getaway well enough. As demon's you have to learn that you are essentially playing a cover shooter until the slayer pushes and uses some of his resources. Demons should be playing defensively most games unless you are going like marauder+revenant or something.
Yes. The amount of people that have added you as a booster is displayed as that number. Basically you can assign three different xp boosters to any player you come across. You essentially share your xp with them. The more xp the people you boosted earn, the more xp you earn. So you are incentivized to give them to very good players/players that play a lot. If you wow someone with your epic gamer skills, they sometimes will give you a boost. Could be because you impressed them, or because they assume that you must play a lot and are going to gain them a lot of xp. I have 25 at level 187. Its a little higher than average for that level, so you can safely assume I'm a pretty decent player. However, a level 250 with only 25 boosters, is probably a fucking shitter. At level 250 you don't even have to be good to be added as a booster. People just see their rank and go oh he must be good. If you see a low level player with a high amount of boosters, say a level 20 with 10 boosters, you can be certain he is a really good player for his rank.
