A New Standard For Quake Mapping 
I think it said something about the Droles having a shotgun shell resistance in the manual, which would explain the grey sparks instead of red blood splashes from hitting them.

I found the flesh key in Necrokeep but I still can't manage find the bone key. I did manage to find a secret plasma gun though up high one in one of the rooms. I'll agree with skacky here on the plasma gun but I'll take it further in that I don't think I've ever encountered a more satisfying weapon to use in a video game than this mod's plasma gun. Brutal Doom's plasma gun is up there as well.

Another word has to be said adding on to what I've said about the Rubicon Rumble pack, as I feel much of what I said about that mod rings true here as well. Big props to the mappers for enhancing the standard Quake universe so much that it's almost like another game. The ambient sounds really help in that regard as well, as you hear all the creaking wood panels above you, the sounds of explosions and monsters in the distance and one sound that sounds like some demon lord taunting you in the distance. I've played through all of the maps now and they're all like this so congrats guys, you've all got something really special here.

That ending map gave me some serious nostalgia goosebumps too.

Amazing 
Demos : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/33279452/ad.7z

I wanted to wait until I had finished all the levels but it's taking longer than I thought to do so and I'm in danger of forgetting things.

First of all, holy shit you lot! This mod is siiiick. So many cool things in it. All the new art, code, and systems are great. The breakables system alone gives me a mega mapper boner. I did see some of this stuff a few months ago but didn't have time to do anything with it :( The additional "full" sp maps were not in that version I saw though, which brings me nicely to :

Holy maps batman. Great use of all the new systems and features of the mod. Ad_swampy is so fucking dense it's going to take me weeks of play to get it all straight in my head. That thing is a behemoth and I wonder how many goats MFX had to sacrifice before it would compile... I still haven't finished Firetop Mountain or Ionous' map as I die every time.

It was quite awkward at first having to unlearn some behaviours with regard to the modified and new enemies. The Ogre's especially take some getting used to. Probably why I get so horribly murdered by them all the time :)

I love the new damage resistance effects. I understood immediately that my shots with certain weapons were not damaging the enemies nearly as much. Bravo for that :)

Meh, I'm rambling now. This thing is fucking great and I'm excited to see what people do with it! 
Demos, Part 4 
necrokeep skill 2 + the continuation of firetop, the secret event finished (took quite some wandering around, i didn't record all of it. silly me, shouldn't have missed it the first time anyway)

https://www.dropbox.com/s/5ump6opw9bpjc2b/arcdim_demos_pathogen_part4.7z?dl=0

necrokeep is surely a sweet map! 
I Think 
It's not so much the Ogres, but the fact that the SG is now the weapon of choice, rather than the SSG. Especially in maps where the ammo is more tight.

The higher ROF of the SG gives it a much greater DPS than before, with less wastage.

The widowmaker is awesome though. 
 
The SG always lacked viability except in sniper situations. I think the weapons, except the NG and SNG, have enough of a variance now to make it worth switching weapons more. 
Firetop Demos, Second Attempt 
Finished it, all the kills and the secret. Amazing!

Weird, I scanned QS + dll's with TrendMicro and it didn't detect anything. Hopefully just a false positive with norton? 
 
Norton is bleh. 
Awesome Mod 
This mod is great. Thanks for all the hard work that the creators put into this. 
^^^^^^^^^^ 
What he said. 
 
You know what I love? The polish items. Like, the slight trail on the shotgun and the way the pellet seem to have travel time through the air. They don't, I'm sure, but the visual effect is infinitely satisfying and makes you feel much more in touch with the world. 
But 
All of the shotguns have been changed to projectiles instead of hitscan impact. 
 
Oh neat. Well, regardless, it's a welcome change. The guns feel WAY more fun to use. 
Admin Update 
Please could an admin update the top of the thread for me?

Going to vote now. 
Maps With A Rune 
On which maps is there a rune ? 
Test Maps 3 And 6 
Anyone have played test3 yet ?

I still don't get why test maps 3 and 6 are considered as "test" maps. These maps are awesome and fully deserve to be in the full map start entries.

In my personal taste, they are even much better than some "normal" maps in the whole pack. So it's really a shame that test3 and test6 don't have their own start gates, in the normal start map. 
Okay Okay 
Truly it is a tragedy of Texas Style proportions.
But it is time to move on. 
 
For real. 
Okay For Real 
which maps in the whole pack have a rune ? I've found two but I'm unable to find the others (since there is a total of 4 runes, according to the read-me). 
 
necrokeep does not, that's all I really know... they are meant to be secret anyway!
