The description is intriguing, of course, taking players to a world where they must complete an essential mission to survive.

Doomout? Falloom?

The mod’s narrative places the player in the role of one chosen by ‘THE OVERSEER’, who must venture into the dreaded Vault 666 to locate ‘THE WATER CHIP’. The mission is not easy, as the environment is filled with mutants and other dangers that threaten their existence. With each step, players will be forced to face a variety of enemies in a post-apocalyptic world reminiscent of the classic games in the Fallout series.

Among the most notable features of the mod are new weapons and items that add depth to the gameplay. Players will be able to use iconic tools like the Powerfist, the Ripper, and the Gatling Laser H&K L30. There will also be classic Fallout items available, such as Jet, Psycho, and Nuka-Cola, which can be found in vending machines throughout the map. Additionally, a loyal companion, the dog Dogmeat, will join the player during their journey.

The mod offers a special ending that can be unlocked if the player manages to keep Dogmeat alive until the end. This adds an extra layer of excitement and challenge to the adventure. With its mix of nostalgia and new features, Fallout: Vault 666 promises to be a memorable experience for fans of both Doom and Fallout. Without a doubt, fans of both franchises will find in this mod an exciting way to relive their favorite worlds.

They break a record of ‘Doom 2’ that had remained intact since 1998.

And now, exactly thirty years after its launch, someone has achieved a record that until now was considered impossible.

It’s a classic, a masterpiece of FPS, a game without which the vast majority of today’s games would not be understood: ‘Doom 2’ is a marvel created by John Carmack and John Romero that, without being very different from its first part, has managed to make its way into the history of video games. And now, exactly thirty years after its release, someone has achieved a record that until now was considered impossible.

This is, of course, a record set by speedrunners. You know, those people who go crazy trying to find an extra trick, a way to skip a level without being noticed, to complete ‘Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’ without touching a single shrine. And it’s not something new or an internet invention. Back in 1998, Thomas Pilger achieved a milestone that had remained unmatched until now: he completed the first level of ‘Doom 2’ in 5.97 seconds. And it doesn’t matter how many thousands of people have tried to surpass him, because it was considered unbeatable. Until now.

And it’s that a player named 4shockblast became obsessed with that level, reasonably short (anyone can finish it in a minute). He played it over and over again, trying to find the easiest routes, the hiding spots, trying to defeat Pilger 26 years later. And in the end, he succeeded with a technique as complex as it is successful (when mastered).

It’s about bouncing off one of the enemies at the beginning and using it to propel yourself a little faster around the corner. It’s a complicated move that doesn’t always work, but on April 6th, using all the strategies seen a thousand times in other speedrunners videos, he managed to complete this first level in 4.97 seconds, one second less than Pilger.

Maybe you’re thinking that your new goal in life is to achieve it in 3 seconds, but maybe you should reconsider: our hero only achieved his feat after 100,000 attempts. So yes, we could be facing an unbeatable record, but in the era of Internet you never know. The glory of the champion is always fleeting!
