The hotkeys are a must for Doom unless you install that flashlight mod for all rifle type weapons which IMO just ruins the game all together. After fumbling thru the beginning stuff with the scientist and all I went straight to the control options and remapped all the guns over to the numeric keypad just right of the arrow keys. That helped out very very much. ALSO......I had num 1 set as my flashlight and found alittle neat trick. Say you had the shotgun out blasting zombies and such and hit the num 1 to go back to flashlight.......instead of searching for what gun the shotgun was when another zombie jumps out if you are on the flashlight you can hit the same hotkey (num 1 in this case) and it will return you to the last weapon used which would be the shotgun. Noticed this works with every weapon you come across and might make things alittle easier in the future because there will be plenty of times later in the game were all hell breaks loose and you really don't want to be fumbling for the right hardware to do the job. Anyways I thought I would share.

Did you push the two flammable content cans down that wide catwalk? I did, but I wish I had saved them for the second guy. (Boom!)
He's tough, and a good shot. :!:

What about that scientist up on the balcony who was crying for help? I finally got in there quick enough and was able to save him. "Hey thanks! I'm outta here!" he says.
Remind you of near the beginning of Half-Life, hmmmm? :lol:


I've just gotten past that zombie guy. I decided to stop there and have a rest. Herm is right, be sure to save a lot, but make sure you're safe first. Otherwise you could save yourself into a nasty trap. :o

I really bad at this game .
