I would love to see...

By Petru5, in Doom

This forum is to hear what you, the fine lovers of Doom, would like to see in the future of this game. I know, I know, it has been a long while since anything new has been made for Doom. However, my hope is that a moderator will read our wonderful ideas and that in turn will spawn some new Doom-related delights!

I'll start off with the things I'd like to see:

1. A scenario booklet. It would be an inexpensive update that I've heard many fans claim is a 'must have'. The game and expansion have everything Doom needs, except more scenarios/campaigns!

If not a booklet, then...

2. A scenario database, a la the one found on Descent's Support page. Sure, they're fan-created, but nobody ever said homemade was junk!

Those are my ideas. Anyone else want to throw in their wishes?

great ideas, more official scenarios would be great, campaigns and a set of good sculpt dices, that things i wish

1. More deathmatch maps. There have been only three official maps in the booklet of the Expansion. I would love to see more of them.

2. Some new campaigns, yes. That also would be nice.

some "official" Monster mods to make them more like the game. Maybe add some maps from older doom games. Maybe even a game base on the older ones.

I want more scenarios! :)

I would love to see a scenario book and maybe even another expansion. But with that in mind it would be kinda cool to see something like Descent's Road to Legend Campaign Expansion but for Doom. Obviously it would have to be quite different but atleast it could add some campaign elements. More Deathmatch options would be cool and maybe even a Doom Toolkit that comes with some new critters, map pieces and tokens for creating or own maps or even bigger maps?

Some Campaign stuff & some with the "missing" monsters would be great.

OD

Definitly a scenario database. Descent has one, or it had it before the site change, I'm not sure. Doom should have one too.

And new official scenarios, especialy ones that have other goals than escaping through the red door :)

In the old forums someone by the name of Tibs has a link to scenarios 11 to 15 (he made them) for the campaign still on-going from the current expansion

I'll gladly put the link here if you so wish, but remember, it's NOT me that made them, it's Tibs

I would not be interested in a RTL for Doom. I prefer Doom, because it is so easy, fast and leightweight. No overweight descent.

Oh it is fast alright! Especially when the Invaders "humble" the Marines before they can blink they are wondering what the frell just hit them. :P

I would definately like a new expansion including some or all-

- Rest of the Invaders - Lost Soul, Wraith, Various Zombie Types, Bruisers, Vulgars, The Hunters, The Guardian, The Sabaoth, Forgottten Ones, think thats it.

-Marine Classes - Such as Seargent(me cant spell), Marine, Combat Physician(Medic), Close Combat Specialist, Scout, Sniper, Combat Engineer, Demonhost,etc

- Invader Archtypes - Z-Sec Commander, Ancient Archvile, Betruger-The Traitor,etc

Customisable Invader Deck (e.g. trechery from descent)

New Terrain Features - Hell Terrain(woot) , Portals, Lava, Computer terminals, Monotrain, etc

Thats all i can think of for now,,,

Wow Gallagen I have to agree that I think that would pretty much do it. Could called it the Invaders toolkit or something of that ilk and with an additional scenario book about the size of the Descent RTL book I think we Doom players would be in Heaven....or Hell as the case may be. :P

whoaaah, so many cool ideas :) new types of marines sound really great and it could make the game actually easier for the marines.

Id was said, there is an other expansion ready.

But ffg won´t print it.....

Really? Interesting! My first question would be "why wouldn't they?!"

It sounds like everyone's pretty much on the same page. Here's what I've gleaned:

  • Extra scenarios
  • A fan-made scenario database on FFG's Doom Support page
  • Extra monsters or possibly another color of the existing monsters to indicate true baddies
  • Different Marine classes
  • More and varied terrain
  • Better dice
  • A deck strategy element (rule change?)

Did I miss anything? It sounds like another full-blown expansion may be in order!

I am slowly working on the Marine Classes idea + Invader Archetypes, but it is taking a while and i am lazy :)

What i am thinking with at the moment is each marine picks a class (which has set abilities e.g. marine cards) and one special ability (e.g. medic using heal is better) and the Invader chooses an Invader Archetype which gives them a set of 'skills' to choose from, then they choose one skill per marine which gives them a permanent ability (like a marine card) for the rest of the game.

Ideas? Comment?

I may be invigorated to do something... :)

Tibs made the Lost Soul and what I think are bruisers/hunters/whatever-they-are in BGG. Also new scenarios

Is there a way we can petition FFG to print this expansion? Maybe something along the lines of a P300 set up instead of 500? Please FFG if you read this, print that expansion you'll have my pre-order!

Yeh same you have my Pre-Order too FFG

DOOM!

Me...three. I'd pre-order what has been discussed. I'd also like to know more about this ID expansion that FFG is holding off on giving the go ahead!

well, i would actually not pre-order (i live in poland and for now i don't have any credit cards or access to any other ways of payment in dollars), but i would definately buy it shortly after the release.

Sorry for bumping up an old post, but I would love to see some of this stuff come to fruition.

I would especially like to see a scenario database and support like Descent has. Fan-made or FFG made maps and scenarios would help to keep this game alive.

I have some homemade stuff lying around that I could post (new Marine cards, a blank Marine card template for people to make their own cards, some REALLY short scenarios intended for limited space tables and the Radiation Shielding Suit item.)
