Project Brutality addon

Introduction:

In celebration of the reveal of the new Doom game at E3 2015, I present to you: Project Brutality. This ultimate Brutal Doom expansion pack, that adds tons of new content into the game that infinitely increases replay value. Every single feature- weapons, monsters, player abilities, sound, visuals- were all carefully developed and crafted to guarantee the ultimate brutal doom experience. Project Brutality is the single most extensive mod that stays true to the lore of Brutal Doom and lets the players themselves choose how they wish to experience Brutal Doom.

Menu, Features, & Information:

Project Brutality allows the player to choose however they wish to play brutal doom. With a wide variety of options, presets, game modes, you’ll never experience the same play-through twice. Let’s first discuss the new Menu Options and Features:

The “Project Brutality” option in the main menu or option menu will take you to exclusive settings from where you can customize many features that affect your game.

This is where you can customize your game from a number of ways, ranging from visual effects, to gameplay features, and even what you’ll encounter in the game world. Refer to the next page for information on the settings that this sub-menu consists of, starting with the spawn presets.

1. Spawn Presets- With the expanded arsenal and bestiary in Project Brutality, it is in YOUR hands to choose how you want your play-through to be. This will affect the type of weapons, items, and monsters that will spawn throughout the game world.
   1. Dynamic Progression- This is the highly recommended spawn preset because it dynamically adjusts the spawning as you progress further through the game, guaranteeing the most balanced-paced experience. This means you’ll discover the more powerful and advanced weapons, items, and enemies as you beat more levels. This is the way Project Brutality was meant to be played.
   2. Default Random- All weapons, enemies, items spawn in a “balanced” random fashion independent of what level the player is on
   3. Brutal Doom Classic- Spawns strictly the monsters, items, and weapons you encounter in good ‘ole vanilla Brutal Doom
   4. Alternative- Modified variant of “Default Random” that swaps enemy spawns more often
   5. Tiers I, II, III, and IV- these are the individual spawn tiers of the “Dynamic Progression” spawn preset
   6. Death Wish- This will guarantee to spawn the hardest monster variants you’ll encounter every time.

You can now individually customize monster spawns and abilities, too.

2. Game Settings- These various options are here for you to configure and toggle things to your very own preferences.

3. Rendering Settings- Here you can select the amount of decals that will appear throughout a level, or set it to no limit. You can also toggle off the blood, liquid, and pain effects that appear on your screen in-game.

Customize Controls

Before starting your game, make sure you set your key bindings, as Project Brutality features new hot keys for grenades, quick punching, throwing proximity mines, and, most importantly, WEAPON SPECIALS! (More into this later).

Starting a New Game

Project Brutality features two different game modes: “Project Brutality” and “Classic v20”

Project Brutality

The first game mode option is the full Project Brutality experience, with no restrictions on the weapon spawns, the monster item drops, the player, nor the player’s weapon arsenal. This is recommended for first-time players who wish to experience all of the unique weapons, features, complete Project Brutality experience!

Classic v20

The second mode option changes everything into an enhanced edition of the Brutal Doom v20 we’ve all played. This mode uses exclusive weapons restricted in the player’s arsenal to match the feel and balance of Brutal Doom v20. Additionally, this prohibits the player from performing many of Project Brutality’s advanced player and weapon features, such as double-tap dodging, weapon specials and new secondary firemodes, proximity mines, etc. This is for those that prefer a more classic brutal doom experience.

***Note that Classic v20 mode does not affect spawn presets, which means you may still fight Project Brutality monsters and what not, just their weapon drops will be designed to fit the game mode.

Weapon Information (Refer to details in the PDF)

With the expanded variety and enhanced abilities of the monsters in Project Brutality, it is only fair that you’ll be using the most advanced, balanced, and powerful arsenal to ever grace the face of the Doom universe. Each weapon was carefully edited, modified, balanced, stress-tested, and programmed to be the most badass, visually consistent, and heavy-hitting arsenal to ever be featured in the Brutal Doom lore. The look, sound, and overall feel of the weapons feel “alive” in a sense, and are guaranteed to be satisfying.

Each and every weapon in Project Brutality has a secondary fire mode as well as a brand-new “Weapon Special” function. This is unique to every weapon, and can range from dual wielding, selecting fire-modes, tertiary fire, etc. Do take note of this, as this will greatly increase your odds of survival against the hell you are about to face.

Monster Information

The monsters in Project Brutality were designed to bad-ass, consistent with Doom, fair & balanced, challenging, and smart. The monster AI is unlike anything you've seen from regular brutal doom.

- New variants of every creature in doom, all fully brutalized with unique deaths and fatalities, and all have unique and deadly abilities

- Imps can climb on ceilings and ambush you, Mini-gun Commandos will duck and allow enemies to shoot over them while they provide cover fire, Archviles can heal an area of enemies, the Revenant has the ability to use a jetpack (inspired by the Doom reveal), Pinky Demons and Lost Souls will attempt to flank you, and this is barely scratching the surface of what the AI can offer to challenge the player

- Well over one-hundred new deaths, fatalities, brutalizations, and more for each and every creature featured in this mod.

- And the best part, you can choose what you'll face. You decide fight from just classic v20 monsters, to all new varieties of monsters.

I really hope you enjoy this mod as much as I have making it, and explore all of the features it has to offer. This is not the end of Project Brutality. There are plans for future content that I’m already working on such as:

• Alternative Weapon Packs
• New Monster Packs
• Map Packs
• Gameplay Updates/Patches
