Best level packs/wads?

[Holding These Alligators Down]

What are the best wads that add new levels to the game?
I don't want anything that changes how the game plays or any total conversions, just new levels.

Thanks

GMOTA is another cool one, if one doesn't mind trying something very different. It basically turns Doom into this first person combo of Castlevania, Golden Axe and ol' Capcom fantasy beat-em-ups. It works best with wads that have some sort of fantasy, medieval, or ancient theme. Say BTSX E2, or Epic 2 before you come to alien-themed maps. Do check it out.

Turns out I have a few shoots of GMOTA with khorus.wad (real cool fantasy-themed episode, 'tis a perfect match for this particular gameplay mod).

Yeah, that's a fun mod, if at least for a gimmicky playthrough. I still feel like the combat in Demonsteele is a bit more satisfying, probably because of the death animations. Though that wad does look nice, I'll have to give it a go.
Another fun mod is Samsara, it's also pretty gimmicky, but it really is fun to play through the original Doom levels as Duke Nukem or the Chex Quest guy.

[Want? a lasso. I got~! one ;)]

The one I play is maps of chaos.wad,all the doom 1 and 2 weapons with more stuff to it,like more openings with monsters inside and more enemies.Made by the one and only SGTmarkIV

I'm playing trough it right now and I cant say that I am impressed with gameplay and pacing. It plays almost like Painkiller: you are constantly locked into arenas with waves of spawning enemies. Only, unlike Painkiller or decent slaughtermaps that go for similar gameplay, in LOS you are locked is sets of small rooms and corridors instead of spacious arenas.
Oh, and there is also health regeneration! I at least can understand why it is there, LOS would be almost unplayable on higher difficulties to to sheer number of enemies in small areas with often little place to dodge projectiles.

But, id does looks awesome and is atmospheric as ♥♥♥♥.

My favorite so far is Going Down. It can be ridiculously hard but the visuals are incredible. One wad that you could check out it is Happy Time Circus 2. It's kind of bizarre but if you're into Stephen King's It, you'll love it. Also City of the Damned Apocolypse.

Wow, this thread's still going! I hope my older comments helped people find some good level packs and gameplay mods.

-Got some new videos since last time too if anyone wants a look:

-I forgot to mention it before, but I find out about a lot of WAD's here:

http://onemandoom.blogspot.co.uk/

The author does a review about once a week, and they are always very informative with screenshots for each level. Definitely worth a look if you're looking for a WAD to play.


-Another option is Oblige:

http://oblige.sourceforge.net/

This is basically a doom random map generator. You set some stuff up, then it generates into a 32 level wad. It's not the same as hand-created levels, but it still makes some fun mid 90's era style maps.


-Here's a relatively new WAD that both looks great and is fun to player:

-Finally, these are the two Doom modding sites I reguarly check for the recent Doom mod developments and new:

https://www.doomworld.com/vb/wads-mods/

http://forum.zdoom.org/viewforum.php?f=19

I found most of my gameplay mods from the Zdoom website, give it a look. Doomworld is where many WAD's in progress have updates so it's also worth checking.

Pirate Doom... pure charm.

Pirate Doom is perfection.

Anyway, I've given up on Legacy of Sorrow around map 6. Amount of effort that went into visuals and scripting is more that impressive... I wish that at least 10% of that effort was invested into actual gameplay.

Right now I'm playing trough Doomed Space Wars

Large, great looking Zdoom maps with textures from original Dark Forces. Great stuff.

Nova the birth (megawad 32 levels)

[Holding These Alligators Down]

Jenesis is really great i'm playing through it now with the Brutal Doom mod.
Non confusing level design, plentiful shotgun ammo and the difficultly is fairly high but not frustrating like a lot of WADS.

Uac Military Nightmare is the best wad. Go play it with skulltag, its only compatible with skulltag, to play it, use doom 2 and put in console MAP UAC01
