D4T v2.5 is out now! news - Doom4: Death Foretold mod for Doom II

Death Foretold v2.5 has been released, and we had quite the multiplayer party to celebrate it. Tons of people playing coop made for quite the sight. And the deathmach, as violent and fun as we hoped it'd be!

We have a trailer to show precisely some of the features:

But if that's not enough, here's some of the highlights

• Doomslayer skin. Because it was long overdue. Made by "The Abysswalker".

• Eight new glory kills. Because it's always fun to execute monsters with more animations
• Item pickup sprites improved. Franco Tieppo is a master of detail, and as such, he provided brand new and improved sprites for ammo, health and pretty much all pickups in the game

• Damage numbers, toggle-able. D4T had this experimental system to show damage numbers in Zandronum where you had to execute a script and it'd work sometimes, but not always. Now it's just a matter of selecting in the menu if you want the numbers and they'll just work!
• Medal system for PvE completionist tracking. Now you get a neat bar at the top showing how close you are to finding all secrets and killing all monsters.

• PvE re-balance. The game was challenging but also easy in some parts. Some enemies were weak while some weapons too powerful. Now all that has changed. More challenge, just as enjoyable.
• Three weapons removed. Goodbye Repeater, Vortex Rifle and Hellshot. You were cool, but you were quite redundant. Now with less weapons, the gameplay loop is much tighter and each remaining weapon have it's very unique and specific purpose.
• Powerup duration indicator in HUD. See those neat little bars beneath each one? Yes, now you know how long before you gotta run to the hills after you Invulnerability is over.

• Deathmatch (PvP) fully re-balanced. No more weak weapons and long TTK. Let's play like it's vanilla deathmatch, and SSG your enemies all day. Or with any weapon really!
• Player Skins for PvE and PvP. Because you may not want to be the Slayer today. Pick between the 5 new sentinel skins made by RoosTer and Ivory Duke.

And many many more changes/improvements/QoL things here and there. See the changelog for all the details.

But I'll take the opportunity to tackle the...

Thank you to everyone leaving kind words and constructive criticism. To the people just complaining about weapons being removed and horrified at the prospect of re-balances and overall averse to changes, the old versions of D4T are still there for you. ;)
