Yeah, speaking of old fps, I still need to find a shooter that makes me feel as paranoiac as in Wolfenstein 3D. I mean, you're in a dungeon and suddently a nazi (or one of those mutants in "Operation Eisenfaust") runs from a random corner. And their shots really hurt in harder difficulties.
Not even Doom makes me feel like that, since hitscan attacks are horribly weak, most attacks are easy to dodge and most monsters are way too slow.

Oh yes, Wolf3d.
That game's hitscan attacks always surprise me.
Especially when an SS Soldier sneaks up from behind.

Well.... Okay, I don't like FPS, or shooters in general, but DooM is just fun!

[Yuri Sakazaki]

Old classic FPS games are fun for sure!

I still like modern ones and all, but really only ones that takes elements from the classic ones.

No regenerating health, please.

[Hallan Parva]

regeneration is fine if it's not direct regeneration of health


I appreciate Halo because your shields regenerate but if you take HP damage then you're just screwed until you pick up a medkit
there are also a couple games that regenerate HP slowly if you're below 20% health, but once you hit 20% it stops the regen

just a couple neat examples

True.

And NO-RELOAD (the hell of realistic fps), BE FAST is the reason why i prefer old fps.... And good, Doom (4) will be without reload or slow moves!
Doom3 is cool to play but it's so slow compared to old doom and the areas and TOO SHORT, only corridors, like', it's boring...cool survival horror but i prefer when it was like the old doom, it's an exemple. (TNT maps were pretty cool, there is really a potential with doom maps).
Hexen or Heretic are pretty good too and have a lot of packmaps!
Too bad, no more heretic fps (heretic 2 was a tomb raider like') :/

And lol to cod or counter strike, i played 2 or 3 years with counter strike, but it was so dumb.....when i remember how frustrating it can be with a AWP Snipe!!!! Killed in 1 hit by a little camper :/
The worst in this style seem to be COD Ghost..... I have seen a test of that, it was hilarous, a lot of campers because the maps are huge, CALL OF DIRTY SNIPE....

You will tell me "Atomic fire is 1 shot kill too" but it's harder to use it. Not like when everyone used the snipe in CS 1.5 or 1.6..........

[Yuri Sakazaki]

Ah yes, I forgot about Halo somehow, thanks.

Really liked how the shield/health worked there.

Okay so I was gone for a while and missed stuff and therefore I am clueless on a certain thing.

Can someone please explain to me this "Justified classes" thing? All I know about the mod is that it has that name and it's probably a classes mod. To me it sounds incredibly dumb to declare a classes mod to be "justified".

It's true that I could just go play it but I lost interest in classes mods awhile back and I'd rather someone just told me rather than me risking having a painful experience.

[Beed28]

Justified Classes is where the classes are designed to match their NES (or canon) counterparts as closely as possible while still being fun to use. It's kinda like a continuation of KY's Classes mod.

[Korby]

Justified Classes is a mod spearheaded by Fyone and Woohoo as a continuation of the KY Classes project. They are less strict on being canon than KY was, and they currently have MM1-8 classes and MMV classes in addition to a few others. They are working on a version with MM&B Classes.

Much like KY's Classes, an amount of people either disagree with Fy and Woohoo's design philosophies or just don't find the mod fun, so they don't play it.
It currently holds a monopoly on classes-based gameplay on MM8BDM-relevant Doomseeker, perhaps partially because YD Classes still aren't updated to v4.

[*Alice]

They managed to makeSailor Stardroid Venus the most useless fun class ever.

[Beed28]

Just been playing the newly released Mega Man IV on the Virtual Console.

My god, I just want to strangle the guy who programmed Bright Man.

This guy is just the definition of cheap and broken. You can't even get around his Flash Stopper unlike his NES counterpart. You have to keep tediously save-stating so he doesn't use it. I heard Mega Man IV is supposed to be one of the better Game Boy Mega Man games, but I just don't find that true when it has such a cheap boss like Bright Man. I actually had to leave the game for a while after beating him in the boss rush because he was just too straining on my sanity.

[Dr. Freeman]

...Use Rain Flush?
Unless you never fire the weapon/get hit by literally everything he does you should be fine. You'll probably take one Bright Man ass to the face, but it's not that bad at all.

[BiscuitSlash]

So Justified Classes is what I was hoping it would be.

 

The lack of canon accuracy when it could easily have been there always bothered me with YD classes, even though the mod had loads of fun in it.

[SmashTheEchidna]

I tend to jump as high as I can when he uses Flash Stopper, so that his shots never hit. He was pretty easy for me, but I haven't played the virtual console version. They shouldn't have changed him TOO much in theory.
