Hello everyone. Just had my first few Zandronum Games, I played a bit of survival (and didn't do to well.) And I played a complete round of all out war, and I'm having a blast!

@ Ruin

Thank you for your warm welcome.

Do you mind me asking if you have any servers you recommend? I'm rather new to the whole online doom experience, despite the fact that I've been playing doom since I've been 4 years old. :)

I know you weren't talking to me, but I have some suggestions.

Zombie Horde and WhoDunIt are great mods.
I highly recommend going to any server you see using those mods, if you do see a server. I'm not sure, I rarely see any WDI servers with people in them these days.

Question, how did you find out about Zandronum?

Zombie Horde and WhoDunIt? I'll keep that in mind.

What does the Acronym WDI stand for?

How did I find out about Zandronum? I discovered it shortly after skulltag was abandoned, plus I've played with mods that require zandrunom, such as armed recruit.

WDI = Who Dun It. (It's a mod)

Ah, thanks for explaining.

I tried to join a cooperative server that had a variant of real guns, but my hud was all messed up when I created my class. I had no idea how to shrink all of the status bars and everything. But I'm sure there's an option I can change in the menus.

Welcome aboard, and enjoy your stay. If you enjoy competition, duel32 and ctf are the go-to servers of choice.
For everything else there's survival. (and mastercard)

Your HUD problem might stem from an irresponsible mod author forcing HUD scaling in their mod. Try applying this:

Code: Select all

hud_scale 0

Terminus posting reminded me of another mod - Samsara

It's all the fun of classic FPS games in a single class pack compatible with all Iwads.

Thank you for the warm welcome.

I'll have to give dueling and capture the flag a try. :)

This is a console command I assume? Thanks for the tip. :)

Yeah I've played that, its a really good mod. Each class has their own play style and feel. Feels a lot like team fortress 2.

Welcome aboard the Zandro-train. Make sure to check out the events they make on here. Also competition is kinda dry, so if you're into it join up.

I'll look into trying some competitive game play in the near future. :)
