The Chaingun sprite is actually the assault rifle model from a game called Mace Griffin: Bounty Hunter. Very interesting to see something from such an obscure game
Yeah, that game had it's flaws but it was really unique, especially with the way you used your ship to enter and exit levels. Man..... such a long time ago now.
I love that the 3D cyberdemon stuck to a low-res texture set so that it fits with the rest of the games art style. Too many times people put 3D monsters in a WAD and give them high-res textures and it looks clunky as fuck. Remember that happening a lot with the Doomsday engine.
Reminds me of how the N64 port of Duke Nukem 3D gave the Cycloid Emperor a 3D model rather than a sprite (I guess that was Eurocom’s way to show off their 3D tech that they’d use in Zero Hour).
15:56 For literally DECADES, I thought that was the bloody neck-stump of a decapitated body. Only now, with this partial sprite, do I learn it's actually the broken helmet, with blood oozing out of the break at the lower right.
Just playing it now. It's nothing like Half Life in terms of gameplay. It's much better :D it's faster, more dynamic, has better level design and the weapons just feel much more devastating
Absolutely! Fantastic world building with these environments and never taking away urgency from the player - All with that solid Doom gameplay thrown on top *chef kiss*
This mod is just pure brilliant - I'm almost tempted to use the tired argument of, "why can't we have good games like this coming out of bigger studios". But the answer is simply, they can't make anything of this quality of fun any more, so why bother, the DOOM modding community will blow them out of the water every single time :P
the graphics and overall feeling of the area the molten metal where you fall down the elevator is astonishing!!! i'd like to see that in full detail on my 1440p monitor!
I really hope that Kraja makes the Episode 2 that they've so cruelly teased and mentioned someday. That or gets hired at ID because this is some top tier shit.
Oh i will finish it - even if it kills me. It's just... the way things are going now - it may take some time. I just simply don't have as much free time as i had when working on EP1
its from mace griffin bounty hunter, any chance we see more high tech weapons on ashes 2063 episode 3? Yes i am a fan, favorite game of 2021, put it on steam, make money please. Cant wait for the weapons and enemies mod for doom. I hope i can use the m79 grenade launcher, by the way thats a good idea for episode 3, use a m79 while riding a bike. Ill stop fanboying now.
A lot of devs forget that in an FPS, your gun is your character! This mod nails that (along with several other DooM mods) with half the team and budget of “AAA”
half the team and budget of "AAA"? You do know that these mods are done by 1 or 2 people with absolutely no money, right? like, not even a cuarter, let alone half of money and released for free and most AAA games are done by hundreds of people across different studios. Wtf are you talking about? Do you even know how something is made? WTF?
This is shaping up to be a terrific mod. I playtested an earlier build when its creator, Kraja, posted it on the Doomworld forums back in 2020 and I was well-impressed with it back then. It's great to see all the progress they've made with it since.
The animations look weird because in some instances instead of using different sprite frame, they rotate the current frame around which looks super weird and gives an impression as if it's an image printed on paper.
I like the look of this and will eagerly follow it's development. Bullet Ballets are fun and all, but I tend to prefer these intricate, detailed, and tense encounters and environments over massive battlefields of monsters all at once. A few well placed monsters in a tight environment is always more thrilling I think.
I LOVE the more atmospheric and innersive levels. Especially the OSTs by Aubrey Hodges. Doom CE is the PS1 versions but better. Totally different experience. You'd enjoy it if you haven't tried it already. With fast monsters turned on it feels extra diabolical.
When I saw that tablet explaining things at the start. I thought this mod was going to have some sort of mechanic allowing you to resurrect after death. Apparently not.
I'm only on level 3, but if what I've seen so far is any indication of the quality of the final product then it could well be one of the best Doom mods I've played. Or shooters in general.
I had Babel Monsters on at the death sandwich bit in map 3. It doesn't affect monsters consistently, but it did mean that the Hell Knights threw much faster, and the Barons were throwing triple projectiles. Only way I managed to survive was immediately dropping the two Barons upstairs and taking back the balcony to fire into the crowd below.
@@McSquishMe I've never been a fan of watching streaming, it's a form of entertainment I just don't get... I did used to watch my older brother play games when I was a kid and comment on what was happening, but that's a bit different than watching strangers play games over the internet alongside other strangers for money. It's kinda weird and I just really don't get it. >__>
@@planescaped I don't watch live, because he's on when I'm sleeping XD I'm the type to wanna play, not watch. That being said, listening to Icarus play, and watching what he plays scratches my doom itch. I don't have the computer specs, and Bethesda quit adding mods to the console doom games, so I take what I can get. That being said, it's all gravy for me.
This mod looks absolutely amazing :o I mean it looks polished enough to be an actual commercial product. EDIT: Also was feeling a slight classic Half-Life vibe from this and a certain elevator ride later and that vibe is only growing stronger XD
honestly, this is great and I can't wait for the full release. The only criticism I have is the enemy sprites. It's kinda like when gearbox released the HD models for half-life. Like the doom 3 Cyberdemon fits well, it's just that it's quite distracting seeing the vanilla sprites contrasting the more HD ones
can you do Auger Zenith??? more people need to know about this one. it got snubbed at the last cacowards, "honorable mention" on the fourth page, because of drama between doomworld and doomer boards.
Hey i don't know if you already know about this but Ashes 2063 episode 2 got released some time ago. It's very interesting and pretty long too. Would love to see you cover it.
If a pump action shotgun is pumped sideways with the ejection port facing up, wouldn’t doing so cause ejection failures? Doesn’t really look cool either.
OH MY FUCKING GOD, THE SLEDGEHAMMER SPRITE IS JUST A SPRITIFIED PULVERIZER FROM KILLING FLOOR 2, a game that USED to have a solid melee class which is now wet tissue paper compared to anything else, the Pulverizer is a heavy duty metal sledgehammer outfitted with a mag and trigger system that essentially creates an explosion on whack impacts, IT EVEN HAS SPRITES OF IT\S INGAME DIRECTIONAL SWINGS
Yes. Most weapons here are from KF1 and 2. And ulitmately - my goal is to make a melee system akin to KF2 - with light and heavy directional attacks, blocking and parrying.
When did the term "kiting" come from? Never heard of it before until I was streaming last week and someone told me to try it. I thought he meant killing. Now in this Icarus uses it 3 times. !?
Fun fact: Rocket duels can't damage the cyber well, so why do mappers keep loading you up with rockets to this day? Seriously confused I thought we got over this hump in the early 2000's
Idk if you take requests, Icarus, but there's a mod called "Siren". A demo came out recently and I was wondering if you could check it out, thx for the content. :)
I love that you just triggered everything at once and fuckin booked it for the red keycard fight, but I feel like you missed out. The lava floor damage is surprisingly insignificant, so battling those five encounters in sequence becomes a mix of using your one pillar for cover, and strategically losing some shreds of health to circle strafe your more aggressive foes.

Well, I have no idea why he won't tell us. Or why he didn't look it up. Makes no sense to me. Usually he does his research first.

@@DeonGaming A lot of people in this comments section are wooshing, but I don't think this is one since he repeated "I have no idea".
@@DeonGaming I'm pretty sure he's in on the joke lol 😆
There should be an expansion/sequel to this mod called "IDK".
and a collectors edition with added "FA" :p
the trilogy, IDFK and IDGI
Needs a weapons pack called "IYKYK"
The Chaingun sprite is actually the assault rifle model from a game called Mace Griffin: Bounty Hunter. Very interesting to see something from such an obscure game
I was about to comment this. I love that game~
Yeah, that game had it's flaws but it was really unique, especially with the way you used your ship to enter and exit levels.
Man..... such a long time ago now.
I recall loving it. Also the tech cultists little emoji faces...
I'm honestly surprised anyone else recognized it.
It looks a lot like the assault rifle from Deep Rising
I love that the 3D cyberdemon stuck to a low-res texture set so that it fits with the rest of the games art style. Too many times people put 3D monsters in a WAD and give them high-res textures and it looks clunky as fuck. Remember that happening a lot with the Doomsday engine.

IHNI looks cool, but I was caught off guard when the "cutscene" showed the boss's face. That's actually impressive.
15:56 For literally DECADES, I thought that was the bloody neck-stump of a decapitated body. Only now, with this partial sprite, do I learn it's actually the broken helmet, with blood oozing out of the break at the lower right.
11:29 that silo map def giving off the half life 1 vibes. which is dope.
I get massive Half Life vibes from this mod, and that is praise of the highest order.
Yeah same!

You guys in the doom community are releasing masterpieces left and right lately holy crap!

These doom levels look better than even the new games. Absolutely stunning.
Stoped watching a minute in and downloaded it. Have how finished it and holy fuck thats some good circle strafing funtime right there!
The animations look weird because in some instances instead of using different sprite frame, they rotate the current frame around which looks super weird and gives an impression as if it's an image printed on paper.

And even the bullet ballet parts seem very well designed. This mod seems to really "get" both styles of encounter, and what makes them fun to best!

Wow. This is so good! Great job to the modders.

The blue screen of death!
Really like the shotgun anims and sounds, he even bothered making 2 pump anims for it, which must be the 1st ever.

That is a work of art.
Stopped at 1:30 to download. This shit looks dope.
The chaingun from Mace Griffin - Bounty Hunter lol.
Just a note, this appears under the classic Doom category, it requires a Doom 2 WAD (won't work with classic Doom 1 WAD)
Should check out "Live Through Doom" Mod and its reccomended horror add on build
The chaingun looks kinda like the assasult rifle ya get in Mace Griffen Bounty hunter xD
IHNI ...
Insanely Hellish Nuclear Inferno?
Incredibly Hasty Native Implementation?
I Hate Naked Intruders?
I have no idea
Holy shit this looks absolutely freaking amazing 😳
Minigun is from Mace Griffin (old Halo clone). It even still looks like 3d model.
That looks amazing!
Shotgun model doesn't make much sense considering its of a Winchester 1897.
Maybe it's just such a good shotgun they haven't found a proper replacement for it even in the far future.
Ugh, dammit, I can't even watch 2 min of this vid since just the intro makes it so I have to play this mod.
"Why do you hate Ennai, Icarus?" :D :D
If a pump action shotgun is pumped sideways with the ejection port facing up, wouldn’t doing so cause ejection failures? Doesn’t really look cool either.
Depends on how forcibly one pumps.
