Wow, it's getting damn hard. But I have a chaingun now...I just need to say WOW. This thing MOWS crap down. Goes through ammo like no other though....wish I could open some of those lockers.....

Amazing, truly amazing. Gamespot gave it a 8.5 (great) score. Saying pretty much it's classic Doom, outdated(but still fun) gameplay but incredible grafx and environment.
 
PCGamer gave it a 94% a little while ago. Said the only thing wrong with it was "Some stabs at humor fall a bit flat." I didn't read the whole review, however, cause it said it had spoilers.

I thought the Martian Buddy thing was cool, but that's the only thing so far that someone might find as not funny.
 
Here's some interesting tweaks at VIPERLAIR. I haven't tried all this stuff, but I did do this one,

set image_useCache "1"
set image_cacheMegs "128"
set image_cacheMinK "10240"

Maybe this is the one Veh used in the post above? It doesn't increase your fps that much, if any at all, but it sure takes out the stutters. I've been able to play in High Detail very easily with my 9700 Pro, P4 3.06. No stutters at all. Before using this, every time I'd open a door, things would come to a complete halt for about a second, all gone now. I've even been able to play in Ultra High, but I do get pretty low fps, it's still not to bad, but High is better.
 
Guys here's another tweak that I've tried, and believe me it gave me a boost of about 10 fps. You can read about it here, and if you want to try it and don't want to have to edit anything there is a download on page two, that makes it real easy.

Some people seem to have good luck with this and others say they don't benifit, so give it a try if you want and see what happens.
