-- MORE Realistic. MORE Tactical. MORE Aggressive. -- Fight the DOOM with Realistic style weapons. The new project "CALL OF DOOM: TARKOV" has begun.
All the mod is marvelous, the Nine score is because the muzzle flashes are a bit simple, just a png flash image that contrast with all the great quality of the mod
Such a Realistic mod that i've been waiting for 10 months!
This is a great mod if you're tired of Brutal Doom. And **** the hardcore BD fans.
So, I've been playing this mod for a while, since back when it was in the Beta 0.5 Update 2.1 version. I will say that I preferred the ammo counts from back then, even if they were honestly a bit much.
However, I have chosen to rate this mod higher now than I did then because of the addition of new weapons that add greatly to the mod. There are some additions I'd like to see, like a handful of additional weapons; but overall, this is an excellent mod for people that want a somewhat more "modern" feel to their classic Doom gameplay.
The animations and sounds are excellent, really bringing the feel of Call of Duty to Doom. And I have to commend the mod's developer Arrowood for choosing to have medical kits that the player has to use to heal themself up rather than the automatic regeneration that has been a Call of Duty staple since CoD2.
The only issue is the sheer size of the mod file and how it can take up quite a bit of system performance. This is likely due to the fact that even its "Vanilla" versions are still heavily based in Brutal Doom, a mod that's widely known to be severely bloated. As such, this is a mod that pretty much requires a fairly high-end gaming desktop if you want to play it.
I'm not going by who the author is, like some who have reviewed this mod and chosen to fixate on him. I'm going by the fact I've been playing modified versions of DOOM since 1998. This mod held my attention for over a month, which is rare of a doom mod, the only one that I wasn't bored with after a week or so of intense demon-blasting was the ill-fated Kyle's Doom RPG mod. This mode is best characterized in being, stress-relieving. A violent catharsis like Brutal Doom at it's base, but with semi-realistic modern weaponry to add just that little spice if you're a fan of guns. To whit I am, though I do not go shooting often, my room-mate is a veteran with quite the arsenal and probably the greatest fire-arm know-how I've ever encountered, and even he enjoys watching this mod, if only to laugh at the inconsistencies- yet, still he enjoys it. It's fun to play, it's fun to watch, and it's honestly really well put together. It demonstrates the author cared about this project and gave it the proper attention. I personally cannot wait for the new version. I've been checking daily.
Excellent implementation of new weapons that are expertly refined. The sprites are a bit rough on the edges and some features are missing/broken but it is extremely fun for anyone who is passionate about weapon variety. Each gun has it's own personality and is well balanced which makes choosing a fun challenge :)
Obviously took a bit of work, even with many of the assets being re-purposed.
