Doom (2016) - Ultra-Nightmare - No Upgrades

- Doom on Ultra-Nightmare difficulty without any upgrades!
The graphic settings are different for this run compared to my previous ultra-nightmare run. I changed to ultra settings and 105 FOV (120 FOV is max, my other video was 90). I also reduced the bitrate\quality of the recording a bit to reduce the size\upload time. I also removed glory kill highlight, compass and changed crosshair.
No upgrades are:
No weapon upgrades
No armor upgrades
No runes
No argent cells (first cell is forced)
And no use of glitches\sequence skips, as that would make it trivial.
No weapon upgrades does a lot less damage.
The armor upgrades are very useful for preventing massive damage from barrels and self-rockets, and also missing faster weapon switch as well as more effective powerups\grenades. A single barrel or a face rocket can end your run very quickly.
No runes will not allow me to grab runes like for example saving throw which gives me a second chance, rich get richer which gives me infinite ammo, or equipment powerup which allows me to get armor from the siphon grenades.
No argent cells gives me a lot less health, armor and ammo. I can't afford to lose my health from the mega health powerups later on, as I can't go over 100\50 from pickups. The lack of ammo makes it very important to be aware of where the ammo pickups are and not to waste the chainsaw ammo.
This Ultra-Nightmare run is over an hour faster than my previous one, the main reasons are because I play a lot better, I know where to go and without upgrades I don't have to spend any time doing rune challenges, grabbing secrets etc.
Why did I decide to do it without upgrades? Apparently a lot of people have beaten it now on ultra-nightmare, so I figured I'd take it a step further. But the main reason is because it's a very fun way to play the game! I play a lot more aggressive this time and I don't end up just using gauss cannon with rich get richer rune to clear everything late game.

Misc:
Previously I've died at the cyberdemon to a very strange attack combo that I don't think should be possible, I also died at the hell guardians, I didn't practice the fight properly and without upgrades it was more difficult than last time.
I had a crash at the start of the 4th level, never happened there before. I didn't have any other crashes besides that and fortunately it happened at the start of the level.
I particularly liked when you look into the fallen names as a sign of respect... Or disapproval, depending on the occasion.
I really like how the general doom community has actually some of the nicest members considering the nature of the game. It's really dope.
Not to mention the actual skill and dedication of some of these people too..
The doom comunity is more mature, probably because only mature people can handle the gore
I do not think these things correlate that much. But Doom is an old franchise, chances are a lot of people around their thirties can be found here. Probably has something to do with the way the community is perceived.
Quake / doom community members including my self are around 30/35 years old,
no whining and annoying kids...
the people that are heavily into doom played the original 20 some years ago, so they're likely in their 30s or 40s now. Age = maturity.
darkdiablo888
Manchilds exist, but those types of people arent really into doom (it seems)
2:17:03 Yep, thats me. Died on Cyberdemon when he had one hit left..
D:
It's always heart-breaking to see these poor souls
Daniel Shore You did it ?! wow, congrats !
Jtktomb RNDB
ye few times now. cheers!
Especially those, who got crushed by the elevator at Resource Operations.
So DAMN SATISFYING to watch!!! Pure, clean and simple old-style run 'n gun! A real master!
I think this is the best way to play the new Doom game. No use of weapon mods, upgrade points, Runes, collectables etc. Just get to the end and don't die, the story of Doom Guys life.
3:09:30 I love that he backs up Vega :D sends a tear down from my eye every time.
Can't even find the right word for this run. Calling you a god is just not enough. I have watched your DooM 2 nightmare run many times and I'm 150% sure that you will wither Romero in under 23 minutes man. You are the very reason I got addicted to old DooM games again! Keep on going! My only youtube subscription has gone to the right man!
Thanks! I would have had my doom 2 nm run last week, but then this happened: ua-cam.com/video/5VwwCsFOjZc/v-deo.html
have to agree with HUPIKOLO lol like holy cow lol haha I can't tell you how many times I died on this mode lol well gg to you man keep up the EPIC vids 😀😋
+Zero Master and what did you think of the campaign lol seeing its easy as put tying your shoe lol
Love it how we both did our seperate Ultra-Nightmare challenges on the same day! Well done Zero!
And here I am, dying to possessed out of glory kills, failing ledge jumps and dying to the spider mastermind the first 3 times on *hurt me plenty* despite clearing all levels and having upgraded everything...
Doing nightmare difficulty playthrough, just redid the last bit in chapter 6 like 50 times. You are my hero, although weapon changing on ps4 is a huge disadvantage.
What a fucking amazing game. Please Bethesda, make another one
Bethesda: but we didn't make it!
Agent Fire Shut up Bethesda, i don't give a shit. make another one
omg u stupid idiot, u should ahve said "I KNOW".
ID Software*
so, here we are with The ancient gods 1 & 2 and i'm still enyoing it
2:16:58 hey there's me! I'd like to say I died epically but I double jumped like a noob into his thrown blades lmao.
most impressive video i ever watched, you're a god
TLoU GeneralNinja gg finding my cumment Omar

Alen Horvat daj mi link brate
BETHESDA-ID, PEASE, GIVE THIS MAN A GOLD MEDAL OR SOMETHING, OMFG HE IS INDEED THE DOOM FUCKING MARINE !!!!!!!
There is one more toy model you missed... DOOM GOD! really... you rock man! They must made a statue of you!
Great gameplay
That was a beautiful run. Poetry in motion.
Watching you combo through the weapons makes me think how awesome this game's multiplayer would be as a more traditional arena deathmatch.
just when I was starting to feel good with myself about my abilities in this game.....
Very cool Zero. In a class of your own.
Impressive to say the least... damn you reminded me of the good old Quake III Arena times with the one shot ariel rail gun kills. Ty for that, keep up the good work my man.
Realizing this run was done a mere month and a half, almost, after the game’s release. Insane!
Lol dude you must be insane. I know you're doing it to prove your skill and I commend you for that, but gosh, you must really be a masochist. I just made it past the UAC level in Ultra-Nightmare and I'm certainly getting all secrets and upgrades for the rest of the campaign (however far I can make it through). You're totally out of your mind and I love it. Godspeed!
Watch you playing is like a movie, thats cool af
Damn that gun changing ability of Yours...Hats off
Just watched this. Loved it. Thanks for the video!
I just beat the boss on Hurt Me Plenty and died like 4 times before succeeding. It's my first time completing the campaign. Amazing play, GG!
EDIT: Wish I could switch weapon as fast on PS4!
Same.. am playing on Ultra violence almost about to finish my first playthrough.. weapon switching is quite annoying in the ps4
This is the best Ultra-Nightmare playthrough on UA-cam in my opinion, awesome video.
Zero Master ...EPIC. Thx for sharing this video. I enjoyed watching it as much as i enjoy playing this game, only watching keeps out the ragequits...you mastered this campaign. Again.
Your video is a work of art. It was really fun to watch someone with your level of skill. I've watched many play-through videos and this is by far the best I've seen. It seem like the enemies do lots more damage but some seem to die easier. Your skill level and accuracy may mean I had the perception that enemies were easier to kill. I was watching carefully and your health was always very high and only a few times did you lose armor.
Thanks for a entertainment.
Bro you are SO SICK, huge respect for disabling literally everything in settings
"The upbeats - DOOM" + this video. Juicy!
Not only you're on the legendary-tier level when it comes to original Doom games, but you also nail everything with the New game. No way you're human, you're THE CHOSEN ONE.
This is so much better than your first Ultra Nightmare run, you've improved a lot as a player.
DOOM on Nightmare seems to have that effect on people.
1:01:55, the most impressive bits for me are moments like this, where he actually makes a mistake and recovers correctly from it faster than I could even figure out what had happened.
Man played Doom Eternal before Doom Eternal
I don't have the equipment to record but I actually made it to the Argent Dnur, and I died at the very last mission just before you fight the Spider Mastermind. this was 2 weeks ago and I haven't touched the game since. Watching this makes me wanna play again but I don't think I can handle the stress. Anyways dude you're a GOD keep it up
Just a nice clean run through
Nothing better than that
Keep going with the videos
Much love to you and your channel 🙂❤️
Holy crap! Spotted my helmet at 01:57:46!
that my friend was amazing , cheers
Man what a pleasure it is to watch you play. I was taking Obama to the White House this morning and I casually opened your video halfway through and proceeded to spend what probably were some 20 minutes sitting in the toilet in plain awe of your skills. The way you flow through the game taking literally no damage is mind blowing.
The skill!!! My jaw was *RIPPED* from my skull and *TEARED* apart.
Just to highlight what others have already said, all the action and skill i've seen in this run (plus the world first ultra nightmare run) are GODLIKE. Kudos to you! As a suggestion, I'd say trying the run with no HUD display and cursor, then I think you would be BEYOND legend! Would be looking forward to seeing that! But even if I don't CONGRATS...never seen such skill in aiming and world awareness!
This is the best video DOOM.I got a lot of pleasure from watching!
I have followed you zero master for a while doom is life for me and I appreciate your greatness
Caution : Do not try to play after him
41:06 that music synchronization with Hell Knight's jumps is so perfect
Godtier aim. Sickest aim I have seen in a single player walkthrough for sure.
Thx for the vidio! It is amazing. Every shot reaches the goal and movements are great!
Poor spider didn't even stand a chance
I keep dying on the second level at the first gore nest. Any tips
Keeping your distance from the imps unless you know they won't be able to hit you before you can kill them is probably best to avoid dying there. Explosive shot with the shotgun if you have that is also very effective there.
thank you
I also recommend you circle around the area, it works great surprisingly. Also like Zero mentioned, the Explosive shot is your best friend when it comes to the imps in the early stages of the game, and even later on.
Keep running back and forth on the high catwalk (not the highest one), this way it is hard to get surrounded, and you have a savety option to jump down.
EmanGameplay use the cover and keep focus of your guns ammo along with some skill you will be fine 😄😄😄
This will be fun to watch as I download Doom. The insanity of this is unreal.
Thanks for the vid - it made me appreciate DOOM even more now that I see how tightly balanced the campaign is. And the vid is just INSANE! No uprgrades under 4 hours is mighty impressive even for UV (for us the mere mortals but even for seasoned veterans No Upgrades on just Nightmare is like WOOOOW), you have my respect. ZM if you read this do you think id playtested it on Nightmare w/o upgrades before release? Do you think UN can be beaten with No Upgrades Pistol Only? I think Bethesda should reward at least 50 grand USD to anyone who can pull that off :D
and thats how fry saved the universe from the brain invasion.
Well i heard the Id Dev team Guys can't even beat this game on UN.
And now you have done it well. Cheers, sir !
Poor demons
a talented guy like yourself deserves to play this on max settings. Olivia rerouting imaginary power lol
nice man, this game is insane xD
Nice to look up these "old" videos when I'm stuck on True-Slayer UN for months already. (All Ammo upgrade, upgraded and mastered Pistol, Vacuum, fully upgraded Equipment and Dexterity but no weapon mods, no other runes, no other Praetor Suit upgrades and no upgrades to Health and Armor.)
Zero Master did it! Great job! As I expected - one should avoid getting hit even once on UNM run without upgrades - and new Doom campaign if done properly allows just that
Using the plasma rifle for the Hell Guards fight when he does the energy blast is a nice trick
My god this guy's aim is insane! He barely misses.
Zeromaster when he/she beats Doom without upgrades.
*Professionals have standards.*
thanks for making this video,it is give me a very very fun way to play doom for 3 year, this video mean too lot for me,really thanks,and wait you to do it on eternal
I can’t wait to see you run doom eternal
Is it safe to assume you've played a lot of quake live in the past?
Nice nice, this is the next thing I'll watch :)
The most accurate representation of lore doomguy
Needless to say, the beast was stunned.
A whip-crack went his whippy tail,
And the beast was done.
He asked us, "Be you angels?"
You have a very pleasing style of aiming. This is very Unreal Tournament meets Quake 3 style, with a dash of Half-Life DM, or Team Fortress. I haven't finished watching this just yet so I won't comment on the achievement itself right now, but I'm curious what your gaming background is now. Very nice flick shots with great awareness, that goes beyond just studying the game. You're very adaptable, you get really nice angles on enemies here from time to time.
His gaming background is all DOOM
Fuck, man. You are too good at this game. Definitely deserves more views.
Holy fucking shit. You Sir are the Doom guy.
Its like the game is playing him on Nightmare mode and getting its ass whooped. 🙌🏼🙌🏼
You are a legend sir!!!
Watching day of post! Big fan!
Pure bad ass. (Dropping the Mike for you) lol
Nightmare with no upgrades. Difficult feat, but you did it.
Zero Master you are crazy :D but I admire you in what you doing :)
Unbelievable.
I have issues with hurt me plenty.
Seeing this.
u rock!
the walkthrough is awesome
keep it up, buddy
Holy moly... Well played man
excellent job zero I love the skill you present superb
Once again you blew my mind.
but still the greatest aim ive seen so far
U’re the real DoomGuy lml
Amazing!
I hate saying it, cause it's a close call, but I almost like your descriptions (for your videos) more than the run itself lmao. Seriously, I love how detailed you are in the descriptions :).....Did you see Dime's Plutonia run at SGDQ? It was pretty sick. It was no zero master, THE Doom master, run but still nice.... I'd love to see a Doom block with you running TNT, Plutonia, and Doom 2 at AGDQ some day.
See, best doom player. Not the skip shit ppl do. Awesome play!
When are we gonna see a similar run on Doom Eternal!
rich get richer + gauss made the game really lame, i want to try this as well now. Looks fun as hell. Enjoyable as first world clear. Ty for sharing!
u high, gauss cannon is one of the best weapons. Also rich get richer is just another form of cheat code like idkfa. Infinite ammo for all weapons.
thanks for replying and agreed with my comment, indeed gauss cannon is one of the best if not the best weapon(ignoring bfg) so far and rich get richer is like you said almost a "legal" cheat lol. These 2 things made the game way easier that was lame to play, at least i felt it like that. I had more troubles at the beginning of the game than at the end.
Holy crap, you actually did it!
Now that is impressive. 😮
Fantastic Run. Well done. Can I ask what your key bindings are because you seem to effortlessly switch between the right combo of weapons at the exact right time you need said specific weapon. Very skilled
Jesus Christ, you're a Doom God
Tempered by the fires of Hell, his iron will remained steadfast through the passage that preys upon the weak. For he alone was the Hell Walker, the Unchained Predator, who sought retribution in all quarters, dark and light, fire and ice, in the beginning and the end, and he hunted the slaves of Doom with barbarous cruelty; for he passed through the divide as none but demon had before.
Don't watch walkthroughs, watch this.
GG at the end classic,
old school :)
That talk you are forced to endure at the end of level 2 takes way too long, is one of a handful of times that the game ruins the pacing.
First we have Nightmare Plutonia, then we have this. Of course Plutonia run is legendary, but this one is pretty good and entertaining too (even though I played only classic doom, never played new one, so I might appreciate old one better). Anyone who haven't seen this, go now. And grab a beer and popcorn: ua-cam.com/video/EUBUYWIZUpE/v-deo.html

To win the game, you must kill me, Zero Master !
Ever since target leading was added in an update, the game has gotten insanely harder. All ranged enemies have perfect aim across the entire battle arena, and will easily hit you even when you're constantly moving, sometimes from angles where you literally can't even see them because their shot arches over an obstacle that obscures your view.
I'm sure Zero Master would still make it look like a cakewalk, but it's definitely *a lot* harder than it was in these pre-patch playthroughs.
Nice work, Zero! What sort of mouse and keyboard are you using?
Not that it actually matters or affects the run in any way, but I found it kind of odd at 34:15-ish that Olivia was gesturing at nothing... Even though she's supposed to be interacting with a hologram display thing. A bug of some sort, perhaps?
Oh, and loving your run so far, Zero! Its making me feel like tackling NM for myself, even though I had some difficulty clearing UV already.
Jesus doomrist, you are the one, Neo~!
