Ultra nightmare is done only in one sitting?

[FuriousHamster]

Hello, i started to play on ultra nightmare, see if i can manage to beat the mode. But the thing is: i beat the first level, even got the awards and went to the second level map. Then, i quit and now my data is gone. I can't quit the game d uring ultra nightmare? If so, that is total bummer because i don't really have much time to invest to beat the game in one sitting

You get an option to save and quit when you finish each level. If you quit at any other point, the save is deleted.

Yeah, i can imagine it can be tough. I died 3 times in the first level just like "Full health goes pop, you died"

My best tip for level 1 in UN so far is save the chainsaw fuel as much as you can so you can get the 3 pips of fuel that you need to kill the Arachnotrons. If you are careful with aiming and weapon selection, you shouldn't need to use the chainsaw for regular ammo refilling, there are plenty of ammo pickups lying around. I hate the Arachnotrons early game on UN.

Yes, there is some cheese you can do using the Saving Chance rune and then Alt-F4ing out I believe. I'm not sure, haven't tried it myself. I have (perhaps foolishly) been trying to play UN the way the developers intended it to be played.

+1
Arachnotrons are way too heavy to get thrown at you with base health, armor and only 2 weapons, so yeah, chainsawing some of them makes first level less a burden. My best atrempt so far was reaching Cultist Base, I died at the battle where you get the Rocket Launcher. Though Exultia Slayer Gate is a frequent run ender too.

Some people just want the skin. I want to try it one day but you've got to have the time to do it.

Yes, it's possible to do UN in one sitting but make sure you've got an open schedule lol. This thing can take a LOT of attempts to do... trust me I speak from experience...

I heard they take extra lives out of it and replace it with sentinel armor. Is that better or worse?

They do, yeah. Wouldn't really make sense when the mode says that you die once and it's game over if they just had a bunch of lives to carry you.

It's not Sentinel Armor I don't think (no buffs or anything sentinel armor gives you buffs apparently but I wouldn't know, I've never used it) but they do give you full armor on pickup instead as compensation. Doesn't affect your health though.

This, so it's still good to know where the pickups are to make sure your armor is topped off as much as possible. There if you need it kind of thing.
