[Congestion 1024] MAP24: Zyklon B (UV-Max Demo)

this map gets congestion 1024 back on track and it's a pretty spicy one. maybe a little too spicy - starting you out in a tiny room with an archvile and a super shotgun is pretty rude especially with a hell knight blocking the door. it's possible to avoid damage here but you're banking on either infighting or pain chance bailing you out; i managed to get lucky this time. with limited ammo and no chaingun, the start is an uphill battle to get to the plasma rifle on an exposed ledge guarded by a baron. there are creative ways to escape this... but if you do it's not possible to go back and get it, and you're going to really need it. thankfully once you do there's a lot more space to work with, although there's not a lot of cover from the hell knight and revenant sentries, and grabbing the red key spawns a couple pain elementals that are pretty troublesome. but the level kicks back in to high gear with the teleporter in the red key area, which drops you right in front of a cyberdemon and will kill you immediately if you aren't ready for it. there's an invincibility nearby you can straferun to that i missed the first time, but i got lucky and managed to get the telefrag on the cyberdemon without it the second time. if you don't go for the telefrag remember that this is a boom wad and with the plasma you can and will push it off on to the ground. so be ready for that. there's also an archvile or two but the rooftops have more than enough cells to cut anything else down without issue.
