      @@letendreelliott8778 If it's just cultists, and he has full back up support - intel, supply and positions to recuperate. Then it's entirely possible for a single Marine to quite literally be a one man army in some cases. Especially a Sternguard. Mind you I'm talking cultists, not renegade guardsmen or full on daemon incursions.
      Then again you gotta remember this is supposed to be a doom game. Doomguy is just that - a guy. A buff muscular dude. That's it. No superhuman reflexes, no magic, no advanced weaponry save for what he finds lying around. Hell his signature weapon is a double barrel which should be horribly outdated in his universe. And he still manages to absolutely shred demons even with his bare hands.
      Now imagine a Marine. Imagine that dude, who's so beyond a normal human's abilities even if the human is in peak possible condition. A lot more likely. I can see a single marine handling various lesser daemons if they don't come in great numbers. Greater Daemons, yeah, that's highly improbable even for lone Grey Knights unless they're named characters, but I can see a Marine managing to clutch one if they're smart enough about it. And then my man Caedo literally goes in and bodies several.
      Hey, it's a power trip. I can respect that.

    Be pretty cool if the devs made a follow-up game where you're playing as the imperial guard. Be a good way to add a progression system like Boltgun currently lacks. You start off as some conscript with armor about as useful as tinfoil and a laser gun that can barely pop balloons, but by surviving more engagements and gaining more veterancy you get gear with higher stats and maybe a bit more visual flourish. Be funny if your arms gradually got more yolked to represent both toughness and, more likely, the ungodly amount of biological enhancements you'll be allowed (forced) to take by command once you've proven worthy of them.

    A really fun addition could be something that Hedon did, with a melee only mode, where you get new kinds of melee weapons and new ways to tackle encounters with melee only.
    I love this game, but with just a few additions it could have been perfect. Sadly, I think they leaned a little bit too much on the whole "we're old school, we don't need no modern fps design" mantra and forgot that some of those evolutions came about for a reason.

    One correction: You only get up to the Heavy Bolter in Act 1, in Act 2 you get 3 new ones which are the Vengeance launcher, Meltagun and Voltkite, and in the final Act you get the Grav Cannon, so the weapons are more spaced out than you made it out to be as you in fact do not get everything by Act 1.
    Also I heavily disagree with melee being useless, I found it a complete life saver in later stages and I played on Exterminatus, because it is not just melee, It's a HOOKSHOT basically, there were a ton of times I was able to get to higher ground that would be impossible to get to by jumping, by charging with the chainsword at an elevated or far away cultist.

    The only "ball-busting difficulty" of Boltgun is knowing when you're actually taking serious damage... I go from 250 to 95 HP and only let out a tiny grunt that gets completely muffled under all gunfire. No red screen flashes, no screen jitter or shake. You only know you're hurting when you're sitting at like... 10% HP and get a red border on your screen.
    But otherwise it's amazing. Player damage feedback is pretty much my only gripe with it.

    I always thought that Boltgun (based on pictures) would just be like Doom 64 and have the low quality graphics so had a mixed thought about it but damn those graphics actually look good, never knew I’d see a Doom 64 type game have high quality shading/lighting, and the gun animations are just a chefs kiss. It’s a high quality game but just turned pixelated

      The single greatest use for the chainsword is actually to counter those champions Bricky fears so much, actually. Ironically, you can stagger champions out of their charges repeatedly by countering with your own sword lunges, applying the follow-up for a fraction of a second, and jumping backwards before they can recover and slap you with their regular melee. Repeat until dead, and as a bonus, once the champion is low on health you can keep the sword attack going to overkill and gib him, preventing resurrection.

    The omnissiah upgrade does upgrade the gun semi-permanently (It lasts the entire mission). The only issue is it affects every gun differently. It's best on the boltgun with an increase in STR and 20 extra rounds in the mag which also increases the amount of special ammo you get for it like vengeance rounds. I do wish there were perma upgrades though. Maybe in a future DLC

    @williammiller79 Pƙed měsĂ­cem

    Here’s an idea list for every weapon upgrade that I thought up (simple, sure, but it’s a boomer shooter. The point of them kinda is being simple and dumb fun!)
    Melee: bricky already covered this, with both the power sword and the thunder hammer, but maybe toss in the lightning claws as well?
    Boltgun: faster reload(?)(Not sure about what upgrade would make sense)
    Shotgun: give it AP -1 at practically barrel stuffing range (basically make it so that you either do flat percent more damage or toughness -1, and barrel stuffing range is pretty much jamming the gun in their face)
    Plasma gun: upgrade that gives you ~5-15% more max ammo, and also makes the gun handle overheating better (so give it a couple more consecutive shots before the gun explodes in your hands, and make it faster at cooling down by 10-40%)
    Heavy bolter: probably an upgrade that reduces the bullet spread by like a fourth or a half of what it is now, and maybe 5% more damage alongside?
    Vengeance launcher: upgrade that lets you carry more grenade rounds, and lets you use new rounds (like krak grenades, plasma grenades, volkite grenades, stuff like that. Also I don’t know which grenades the vengeance launcher already has, so I’m sorry for repeating any currently implemented ammo types when I post this!)
    Volkite gun: give it an upgrade that you can toggle that lets it target multiple enemies at once but you split the power of the gun between each target you’re attacking (I’d say let it cap at 4 or 5 enemies max, so if you shoot 2 marines with it, they’re both taking 50% of the damage that they would’ve if you just shot each one individually) and give it an increase in ammo cost per enemy targeted (not much, but 2-4% more ammo used per each enemy target past the first one seems a bit fair I think?)
    Melta-gun: upgrade that gives you more max ammo and lets you do like a charge shot fireball attack(how better to tell the aspiring champion to go back to hell than by shooting him back in with a fireball!) though it definitely wouldn’t be quick or cheap to do
    Grav-cannon: no damn clue! Any ideas?
    Also why not add in a shield/bolt pistol and/or heavy bolt pistol combo? You can take less damage and shoot back at enemies attacking you at the same time, albeit you’d be slower and have a kinda bad gun (especially in comparison to the rest of your arsenal, and you wouldn’t be able to use your other guns with the shield. So either use the pistol or melee weapons with the shield, or no shield at all) though maybe give the bolt pistol/heavy bolt pistol the fastest reload speed(?)
