Whenever I load Brutal Doom now I don't get the screen for selecting whether I want to play normal Brutal Doom or the other modes and the difficulty select screen only has 4 to chose from. In game I don't see Doom Guy's Mugshot and I don't see the armor icon while picking it up it wearing it.
- Mar 05, 2020 As per Brutal Doom 64's level 8, we will now finally venture into hell itself. On the next video haha, as a result expect it to be even harder than this one xD Twitter: https://twitter.com.
- Doom Eternal - Nightmare Difficulty Master Level & No HUD Description: The most intense levels in Doom Eternal just got a bit more extreme. We take on one of the Master Levels on Nightmare Difficulty without the HUD to see how long the Doom Slayer can survive.
- Since Doom turned 26 years old recently, I thought I should do some game-play videos of Knee Deep in the Dead, where it all began! John Romero made 7 of the 9 maps in Knee Deep in the Dead (E1M4: It was started by Tom Hall and finished by John Romero) and they're some of the best levels in video-game history.

QuestZDoom
Recommended Mod Combinations and Play Styles
The amount of content for the GZDoom engine is quite astounding. During Beta Testing our team tried as many combinations, looking for what worked best in VR. At the end we tallied up everyone's favourite mods to produce this list. This is by no means a comprehensive guide, but it's a great starting point if you are unfamiliar with Doom modifications/
All of the mentioned mods are available to download via the QuestZDoom Launcher. You can find notes regarding the best performance settings within the Launcehr.
A big thank you once again to our dedicated beta testers for help compiling this list.
First Time Experience (Maps of Chaos + MeatGrinder)

The True Sequel to Doom II (Doom 64: Retribution)
Widely considered to be the true sequel to Doom II. Doom 64 was originally released for the Nintendo 64. This is a fan recreation.

By Paul Linfor
If you're like me, May can't come soon enough because id Software dropped a new trailer for DOOM showing some new tidbits from the single player campaign. More importantly, it has set the release date for all platforms on the 13th of May, 2016. This will be the culmination of 5 years of work, barring the years between 2008-2011 where what was done was scrapped for 'Looking too much like Call of DOOM.' But that's still about 3 months away so what's an anticipating DOOMer to do to fill the time? Why play Brutal Doom and Project Brutality of course!
Brutal Doom is the brainchild of Sgt. MarkIV, a dedicated DOOM modder who released the first version back in 2010 and has been updating it ever since. The whole concept essentially was to take everything that made Doom, Doom and turn the dial all the way up to 11 and tear it out, taking inspiration from the schlocky B-Moviesque Doom Comic released back in the mid-1990s.
Brutal Doom Difficulty Levels List
Brutal Doom not only turned up the gore by allowing you to do things like blow the head clean off the shoulders of an enemy, rip their eyes out, or tear off one of their limbs and knock their head off like your kid at a T-Ball game. It also totally reworked how DOOM was played. The weapons were given a fresh coat of paint (or in the case of the pistol, replaced altogether with an assault rifle, turning the original weapon progression tiers on their head), alternate fire functions, smoother animation, increased difficulty levels, and the AI of the enemies were dramatically improved allowing them to get creative with how they attack you, be they imps leaping at you when you get to close or a Baron of Hell launching a room sweeping plasma blast.
Project Brutality is an extension of Brutal Doom, created by PA1NK1LL3R and given the official blessing by Sgt. MarkIV, expands your options, weapons, enemies, difficulties, and everything else that Brutal Doom has to offer and more if you want a more complex experience.
Brutal Doom 0.18 Thread (ZDoom Forums)
However, ever since the public release of trailers for DOOM (still sore about QuakeCon 2015), people in the Doom community have been noticing a large number of similarities between it, Brutal Doom, and Project Brutality. These have ranged from overarching concepts such as the implementation of larger amounts of gore and the implementation of executions to more direct elements such as one of the weapons being very similar and even a few of the fatalities in DOOM being copied wholesale.
Brutal Doom Difficulty Levels Elevated
Many in the community simply use the similarities to poke fun at them while others have taken them more seriously than actually necessary, saying that DOOM 4 is a triple-A copy of Brutal Doom. However, the whole idea of DOOM ripping off Brutal Doom and Project Brutality is flawed and for a very good reason. It's common knowledge that everything in culture builds off of a previous work, in this case it's no exception. A better way to think about the matter is to consider it a cycle of creativity; Brutal Doom and Project Brutality both being the fruit of John Carmack's decision to make Doom modder friendly and to provide the tools for it which set the trend for all modding utilities today. And after they breathed new life into a still strong game and its modding community, it only makes sense that id Software would build off of the things that made Brutal Doom great and incorporate them into the new game, in effect completing the cycle. For me, knowing this will make playing DOOM that much more special. But until it comes out, it's time to RIP AND TEAR!
(Thanks to Youtuber JRMYXD for his video highlighting the similarities.)
