Zandronum

Hey guys. So you have probably heard from an earlier post that John Romero is coming to play SNS! If everything goes as planned, that faithful day will actually be this Saturday December 7th!

This is an absolutely exciting and a great experience for all of us!

You can read the post with the initial news here:

Now concerning preparation for the event, everything is going smoothly - except for the fact that we have nothing to play! And so, I present you with a poll which reflects some of the options that were suggested in the initial post, and other options that were chosen as possible candidates for this event.

All of the poll options will be played with Samsara, unless people prefer otherwise!

Remember, this is John Romero! So choose wisely!

Well, sicne this is John Romero we're talking about, why not something old school? I think newer mods might turn him off from SNS. He's preferred gameplay over visuals, so why not?

Poll is up.

Wait it has to be with samsara?

A classic will be good, and many think that Samsara will give it that modern kick that Zandronum provides for Doomers. However, it's up to everyone whether or not Samsara will be added.

Alot of people did say samsara. I really can't decide tbh.

ogod this is exciting my little class mod is going into the hands of fucking romero himself.

Um.
Scythe I know back to front and is really quite awesome, but its levels are very much on the small side. We're definitely going to need one of the bigger mapsets for it, and Requiem and Hell Revealed are on the larger side.

Why is hell revealed II not there? OH well too late AV already has 8 votes

Cause then we would have to add all of the other sequels to the other wads. Also, HR1 is pretty epic in itself :P

We don't need so many choices. It'd be confusing to vote. :/

I hate everyone who didn't vote for Requiem.

I'm annoyed that both Scythe II and Speed of Doom weren't on there but out of those I personally vote HR because it's the /classic/ slaughter wad.

Aww, no Ghoul 3 :(

Anyways I would go with scythe.

While I think my opinion isn't as refined as others that have played Doom longer than the times when I was a fetus, I think Back to Saturn X would be a great installment. It pushes no boundaries in the Doom engine, but still amazes even when it's vanilla compatible. Of course everyone would want Brutal Doom as the best mod of all tiiiiiimmmmmeee!!!! 1337 skillz so brutalz do need play oh yes yes Samsara would of course be the best gameplay mod for the event.

I'd say AV is a decent choice, but the further levels seem a bit weak compared to the first few.

D2TWID's my pick here, but I don't mind AV.

AV / Hell revealed 2 would make excellent choices honestly.

Alien Vendetta hell yeah! Never got why it was called that...

God, i'm afraid i cant make it!

Breve man, don't you fink to die on me.

Scythe 2? Vanguard? AV? HR2? I don't give a damn if I'm playing with Romero.
