In the first level alone I've come across multi-phase encounters filled with armored Mancubus, Barons of Hell, and like 5 or 6 Tyrants, two of them in the same encounter that also had two Marauders at the same time. They even threw in a Tyrant in a tiny narrow hall that I get locked into.

I agree with that tweet. I took a break after that first level but I'm kinda not looking forward to what hell awaits me yet.

Only beat the first level so far, but yees. The double marauder part wasn't even close to as bad as I expected it to be, thankfully. >_>

Yeah, that part was surprisingly not as bad. They tend to stick to each other and the ol' "trick" to take them down ends up stunning both. It was the fucking zombies and walls I got stuck on during it that caused the issues, lol.

Edit: I didn't really get spoiled on the details but I read that the final level's final encounter will break you. Oh boy.

I finished it today, it's tough as shit and it bums me out that you can't use the new support runes outside the DLC. The Posessor is a POS and I'm never attempting this DLC above Ultra Violence.

Is the only way to kill the possessor with the energy beam? Was just wondering considering it was used in the trailer.

Excited to play it eventually, I own it, but I need to beat 2016 on nightmare first, and then Eternal. Glad to hear its continuing to up the ante.

It technically has co-op multiplayer. It's in Battle Mode, which is a match between a Slayer player and two powered-up demons.

Oh believe me, a horde mode (especially a multiplayer one) is something a lot of people want. The PC version has a fan-made horde mode mod if you wanna check it out.

If the problem is "there's not enough ammo"

They did that on purpose. Not sure if I like it, but it forces you to CONSTANTLY switch weapons and get used to all of them.

Chainsaw fodder enemies on cooldown unless you know you're full on ammo and it shouldn't be too much of an issue.

I did ammo upgrades before anything else in eternal and I think I only ever completely ran out of ammo once

you can also make it so barrels drop ammo when you punch them, and respawn so you can punch them again, and do no damage to you. after every area I just ran around punching barrels for free ammo

I had that personal problem, but I was a dumbass that thought the chainsaw was limited ammo XFD. I didn't realize you got chainsaw ammo back over time at least the first one, beyond the first you have to find gas. So yeah there's actually PLENTY of ammo. I'm usually up in people's faces so I was pissed I was running out of ammo when I first started considering I punched the shit out of everything and saved my "one" chainsaw kill for when I ran out of ammo and thought I never had another chainsaw kill ever again.

God what a dumbass I was. After that I had no problems with the game. If you don't play aggressive and use the punch invincibility you go down so fast. Getting the bloodpunch AND that upgrade to the blood punch made the game all the more easier for my kind of playstyle.

Snapmap survival maps are available on consoles too. I did some of them with a friend on Xbone. The one's I really liked were the maps that had buyable stuff off the walls like it was a CoD Zombies thing.

Edit: Nvm you were talking about Eternal not 2016 weren't you?

I would assume not.
You start with everything unlocked and mastered except the Crucible.

Yeah, you just start out with everything unlocked in the DLC by default. Anything you get (aside from unlockable skins) in the DLC can't be used in the main campaign though.

My experience with the first level:

Yeah, it was hard, but not much harder than I would expect, given that we only have three new levels. I had just got done running through D2016 and Eternal a week ago, and the ramp up in difficulty for this level wasn't much higher than the ramp up between levels in Eternal.

Twin Marauders didnt really give me a hard time. It took me a few tries. But holy shit, the battle immediately after that was intense! I died so many times!

I feel the same way. I also need to record a 100% run of the first level as I've done with the main campaign, so I might as well practice it anyway.

It blows my mind that on lower difficulties, people can play this game and finish with a surplus of extra lives. You won't finish with any extra lives on UV. Not trying to be condescending... I'm just telling you that you won't.
