Slayer vs Slayer, CO-OP, Invasion Mode, and Battlemode 3.0! You should be playing modded Eternal multiplayer!

[Sav]

Do you want something more than vanilla Battlemode? Well, there's a lot in store for you. The modded multiplayer community hosts 4 distinct multiplayer modes, all of which have dedicated and growing communities. If you're a DOOM Eternal player on PC, I highly recommend you join the modded multiplayer scene. It is essentially buffed Eternal multiplayer, and offers for great replayability, mastery, and fun ultimately!

- Slayer vs Slayer: https://www.nexusmods.com/doometernal/mods/1041

Slayer vs Slayer is an extremely fast paced deathmatch/duel mode for DOOM Eternal. It's a best of 5 match like normal, with 2 Slayers going at it. Base/power upgrades are featured at the end of each round, and the Slayer with the better gun-play, map control, movement, restack, and positioning wins. There are 2 main versions of Slayer vs Slayer. The first being Slayer vs Slayer Eternal, a more conventional approach towards a 1v1 multiplayer mode. Then there's Slayer vs Slayer Duel, which has much more depth in it's gameplay. It puts a high emphasis on things like map control, equipment cooldown control, positioning, and just general gamesense. This version is for the braniacs who enjoy the pacing and rush of things like Quake Live duels for example. Ultimately though, Slayer vs Slayer is an adrenaline rush, and I highly recommend all Eternal players to give it a try. It can be something you play casually, or something competitive as there is a tournament scene to watch or participate in. The style of this Slayer 1v1 with the movement, the weapon swapping, the restacking, and the overall pace just creates for one of the fastest and most fun 1v1 modes out there for a movement FPS.


- CO-OP: https://www.nexusmods.com/doometernal/mods/1062

A highly requested mode for DOOM Eternal, and It's been around for a while if you didn't already know. The same applies to all of these modded multiplayer modes. In CO-OP, you set up a lobby, invite 1 or 2 friends, and tear though Hell as a team. There's slaughter horde mode maps, with endless randomizers at the end. There's also conventional levels available for a change of pace. In a lobby, you can all play as Slayers, or a mix of Slayers and demons. That's right, you can fight off the hordes of Hell as a team of Slayers and playable demons. CO-OP is a very fun and casual experience, and It's a great way to tear though Hell with your friends.


- Invasion Mode: https://www.nexusmods.com/doometernal/mods/1103

The once promised but cancelled Invasion Mode is here as part of the modded multiplayer group! The Slayer enters a level, looking to clear the demonic horde, but playable demons Invade to end the Slayer's crusade! As the Slayer, you must complete each combat encounter to reach the end of the level for a victory, while managing the rogue invasive demons. All of the vanilla Battlemode demons are playable in Invasion, with 1 extra playable demon. The DOOM Hunter! That's right, you can barge in as a playable DOOM Hunter, and dish out massive damage to control space and overwhelm the Slayer. As demons, you must work together to burn down the Slayer's armor, bait his movement, and overwhelm him for a kill. Outside of the normal demon abilities, you can buff AI demons for a while, cloak yourself by entering spectre mode to confuse and evade the Slayer, and use demon exclusive jump pads to gain height and speed. If the Slayer dies to the AI or a playable demon, he must redo the combat encounter. Demons win if they kill the Slayer 30 times, and the Slayer wins if he reaches the end of the level successfully. Invasion Mode is a rush on both sides, and offers for a great change of pace from normal single player on both the Slayer and demon side of things.


- Battlemode 3.0:

This finely tuned multiplayer experience is what vanilla Battlemode should've been. There have been balance changes across the board, certain buffs to the Slayer and the demons, new end of round upgrades, map changes, and the addition of the playable DOOM Hunter! Demons duos in Battlemode 3.0 synergize in a much smoother way, and the possibilities of gameplay in things like the skill ceiling for Slayer, strategies for demons, and just gamesense across the board has been amplified to such a high degree. The long term development process this multiplayer mod went through created for the best gameplay Eternal has in my opinion. When Battlemode 3.0 is understood, and you start playing well, there is absolutely nothing like it. The pacing and gameplay of Battlemode 3.0 is some of the best gameplay you can find in an FPS, and I urge players to give it a chance. This is where the good players of Battlemode reside, and they will help you get better. This is ultimately better, faster, and deeper Battlemode. You can find the zip file for Battlemode 3.0 in the modded multiplayer Discord server. The other multiplayer mod zip files are available there as well.

If you mean cheating in public matches, it's impossible to play modded multiplayer in pubs. You can only play in private matches

Even the most insufferable regulars here would be going against their values trying to have beef with mods.

Will any of these mods work if/when id drop mod support as rumored?

Most likely, though it would be HILARIOUS if they dropped an update solely for modding that breaks all mods

But with official mod tools mods will work better and be more stable. It's like duct taping something versus welding something together.

Cant get COOP mod to work at all. Plus the slayer cis way too big in coop.

Were these mods officially created by Id Software for all players to use? If yes, I will give it a try, otherwise, no.

I've encountered multiple slayers that fly and have infinite granades or ammo in public matches. Why do they exist? Because of people that create the mods and cheats. Hence, I don't support mods and actually hate them because they make the game unfair, if used in public matches. Basically, that's cheating. I am sure that people can use certain mods in public matches. I saw them with my eyes several times.

Also, super fast slayers, who just use ballista boost and maybe others boosts, cheats or mods, like you, are not welcome. They make the normal game, which is actually good, an horrible experience.

So, just play your mods alone in private matches and let normal players play the normal game alone in public matches.

Battlemode 2.0 might not be the perfect multiplayer experience but it's quite good, unless we find the mod users, cheaters, crazy ballista boosters, etc.

you wont find anyone using mods in pubs, only cheaters. anyone downloading these mods that OP talks about will only be able to play with others who also downloaded said mods. they are not cheating one bit. you either don't know the difference between modding and cheating, or you're genuinely tweaking from getting stomped in pubs because you find it too hard to look for casual or mid-skilled people on this forum or on discord.

so yes, these "battlemode 3.0" players will be playing in private matches because its modded. they cant play with vanilla players, game is modded so it aint possible. i dont want to tell you to calm down 'cause it's toxic, but you need to step back and think about what you just posted. no-one who's playing modded multiplayer is in your matches. they're not your enemy, they're not cheaters. basically you are angry with people who have done you no harm or wrong. do you understand?

None of this has to do with cheating. The modloader disables battlemode under normal circumstances and people need to be in the same private match together to use these mods listed in OP.

Battlemode's long-term future probably will be private matches with mods If it's more interesting than what id left us. That's the reality with most multiplayer games.

i also hope you realize that battlemode 3.0 p much almost fixes the balancing issues in the multiplayer. if you actually want a balanced match of multiplayer in eternal, you should download the battlemode 3.0 mod and play with the people who also play it.

No, I was talking to another person. It's something offensive that someone else wrote and already deleted or was deleted by a moderator. I can take some constructive feedback but insults are unacceptable.
