Fri, 03/15/2013 - 14:36
After a couple of weeks fragging each other in FFAs, we have decided to flip the objective over and point it all towards cooperation instead.

Odamex Saturday Nitro #81 - UptightDM FFA

A new week, a new mapset, a new Nitro. A set of DM maps created by Shane, straightforward in the way you may see them, just as, purposefully, the description.

The /newstuff Chronicles #429

Thu, 03/07/2013 - 20:33
Csonicgo on Hadephobia: All in all I enjoyed this megawad, but, hoo, there are some stinkers when it comes to map design. The maps aren't very hard either, which may put off some that like to BFG-slap cyberdemons all day. I do like the story, though, but I wouldn't have made this a megawad. 15 maps would have been just fine.

Odamex Saturday Nitro #80 - Onslaught 2 FFA

ZDaemon Thursday Night Survival #81 - Slaughterfest 2012 (Part 1)

Sun, 02/24/2013 - 15:03
Hordes, throngs, swarms, zounds and legions. Don't expect mercy: this time you won't need to advance carefully because once you join, you will have to run for your life and try to find and defend a safe spot. The enemy is everywhere. But two things are sure: one, that Animazero will be pleased with cyberdemon count and two, that we will love if Cannonball survives (or not) in his own maps. See you there this Thursday!Skill: Ultra ViolencePWADs:...

Ziff Davis Purchases IGN, Plans Shut-Down for Various Sites

Thu, 02/21/2013 - 21:18
Kotaku's recent report of Ziff Davis's purchase of IGN has recently caused a bit of a stir amongst Doomworld members considering the ugly UGO logo that used to grace the upper-right corner of every page on this site. Be assured that Doomworld's parent entity, AtomicGamer, has not been in a relationship with UGO for the past two years. Therefore, this news will have zero impact on the future of this site. Thanks for your concern....

ZDaemon Thursday Night Survival #80 - The Beginning of the End (Part I)

Mon, 02/18/2013 - 18:21
Wandering throught the wad suggestions, I have stumbled upon this gem which, even though the release date reads only 1997, almost feels as if it had been designed for TNS.

Tue, 02/12/2013 - 21:55
Hellbound is a WIP megawad for limit removing ports by Z86. For the first part, the levels take us through different challenging locations on earth, clearing out the demons. There's a great usage of lighting in these maps that helps deliver a dark, ambient mood that really draws you closer to the game. Make sure to join us this week for some more action once again with the TNS crew! Skill: Ultra-ViolencePWADs: hbdemo3, tskins1e, miekskins-r3, t...

Rage in the Studio

Fri, 02/08/2013 - 15:25
Want to practice making idTech 5 maps in preparation for Doom 4? The Rage Tool Kit is finally arriving on Steam today. Be warned, though, as it contains all of the game assets from Rage and The Scorchers as a reference, it's a massive (35+ GB) download, and due to the engine's complexity it's recommended "only for the technically sophisticated and adventurous!"...

The /newstuff Chronicles #428

Thu, 02/07/2013 - 22:05
Eligitine on [GL] Deathmatch: Now there are deathmatch wads that look good, and there are ones that play good. GLDM is a rare combination of the two, with surprisingly detailed and pretty map design combined with nice flow and good item placement.
