Alright, here's a sweet suggestion from dew. Twelve maps in total: this wad has impressive designs, nice texture usage and a few tough fights. We're using the same dmflags as sod but it should be a little more relaxed (no more hordes of those damn revenants)... Check the doomworld thread here for the full description.


The Euro session starts at 20:00 GMT+1
The US session starts at 01:00 GMT+1 / 20:00 EDT

Just played through it. Good wad, it looks nice and the difficulty feels just right (challenging but very possible).

Thanks to SR69MM-JC for making a patch that sees to a potential game-wrecking trap sector in map11! The patch wad will be added to the servers as optional because apparently the client doesn't need it to notice the change!

Also a few players in the server (already) suggested the reset inventory dmflag should be set so there it is; you can now enjoy the extra challenge needed and more importantly: a completely fair boxing match... Wink

19 players in the server at one point? Not bad!

You gotta agree that it's a step up from plain co-op though, right?

Know that feel man, I haven't had so much fun like this for a long time! Everybody was committed to having fun but helping each other out.

Who would have guessed its possible to outdo the past two sod survival nights!!!

This was a truly great pick evo! It was insane how many rotations got played. We had to come up with the weirdest settings
to make it more challenging for euro ... at the end we had no health spawning, fast monsters, double monster damage and vampire mode enabled Wink

We also had a very special guest tonight ... skillsaw the author of vanguard himself joined the US session and managed to
survive (more or less) for a full rotation and a half.

Here are some impressions of tonights survival:

For this being skillsaw's first time ever playing online, he did way better than most of us. Swiftshot and Evo had a few solo runs in the end too.
