(Nightmare is undergoing some big changes for 0.9.9.9, but at the least, it turns out the -10% speed penalty may have never actually existed, at least it doesn't exist from 0.9.9.6 to 0.9.9.8 and so shouldn't be noted here)

Game difficulty roughly emulates that of the original game. There are five to select from:
−
* '''I'm Too Young to Die (ITYTD)''': The easiest difficulty, in many ways. Ammo is doubled, enemy spawns are at their lowest, healing and powerup durations are doubled. A good way to start playing the game, although you won't have access to every [[Levels#Special levels|special level]] available nor play any challenges.
+
* '''I'm Too Young to Die (ITYTD)''': The easiest difficulty, in many ways. Ammo is doubled, enemy spawns are at their lowest, enemies have a universal [[accuracy]] penalty, healing and powerup durations are doubled, you take half damage from [[fluids]], and you get a lot of extra EXP per kill. A good way to start playing the game, although several [[special level]]s will not appear and no challenges can be played on this difficulty.
−
* '''Hey, Not Too Rough (HNTR)''': The "standard" difficulty for many players. Given that all multipliers are set to one, challenges are allowed, and all special levels are now available, this is an appropriate moniker.

* '''Hey, Not Too Rough (HNTR)''': The "standard" difficulty for many players. Given that all multipliers are set to one other than an increased EXP multiplier, challenges are allowed, and all special levels are now available, this is an appropriate moniker.
−
* '''Hurt Me Plenty (HMP)''': The first "difficult" difficulty. More numerous and accurate enemies appear at earlier floors, giving you less time to prepare for the late stages of the game.
+
* '''Hurt Me Plenty (HMP)''': The first "difficult" difficulty. More numerous enemies appear, you no longer get increased EXP per kill, and stronger enemies appear sooner as well, giving you less time to prepare for them. All special levels also see a substantial buff in the difficulty of their enemy loadouts, making entering them a more serious risk/reward consideration.
−
* '''Ultra-violence (UV)''': The difficulty of DoomRL veterans. This is the point where even the first few floors of the game can kill you reliably if you don't know the inns and outs of the game. It is unlocked at the Lance Corporal [[Ranks#Skill Ranks|skill rank]].
+
* '''Ultra-violence (UV)''': The difficulty of DoomRL veterans, with very high enemy density, all enemies having increased accuracy, and stronger enemies appear even sooner. This is the point where even the first few floors of the game can kill you reliably if you don't know the ins and outs of the game. Special levels additionally become very difficult, and entering them without the appropriate inventory and a good strategy will lead to swift deaths. It is unlocked at the Lance Corporal [[skill rank]].
−
* '''Nightmare! (N!)''': The exclamation point does not lie, this difficulty is for hardcore players only. In addition to Ultra-violence changes, enemies can respawn at any time, are faster (relative to you), and attack more often. You can't save, either! At least several of the ITYTD benefits are back to help. It is unlocked at the Sergeant skill rank.

* '''Nightmare! (N!)''': The exclamation point does not lie, this difficulty is for hardcore players only. In addition to Ultra-violence changes, enemies are even more numerous than UV, enemies can respawn at any time if their [[corpse]]s are not destroyed, enemies attack much more frequently, and special levels become absolutely brutal. At least several of the ITYTD benefits are back to help. It is unlocked at the Sergeant skill rank.
  
 
The differences in game difficulty may seem subtle, but switching to a harder difficulty is easily the most frustrating part of playing DoomRL, [[Badges#Diamond badges|diamond badges]] aside. Difficulty information has been tabulated: the columns are identified as follows:

Game Data Strategy

Contents

Difficulty

Game difficulty roughly emulates that of the original game. There are five to select from:

  • I'm Too Young to Die (ITYTD): The easiest difficulty, in many ways. Ammo is doubled, enemy spawns are at their lowest, enemies have a universal accuracy penalty, healing and powerup durations are doubled, you take half damage from fluids, and you get a lot of extra EXP per kill. A good way to start playing the game, although several special levels will not appear and no challenges can be played on this difficulty.
  • Hey, Not Too Rough (HNTR): The "standard" difficulty for many players. Given that all multipliers are set to one other than an increased EXP multiplier, challenges are allowed, and all special levels are now available, this is an appropriate moniker.
  • Hurt Me Plenty (HMP): The first "difficult" difficulty. More numerous enemies appear, you no longer get increased EXP per kill, and stronger enemies appear sooner as well, giving you less time to prepare for them. All special levels also see a substantial buff in the difficulty of their enemy loadouts, making entering them a more serious risk/reward consideration.
  • Ultra-violence (UV): The difficulty of DoomRL veterans, with very high enemy density, all enemies having increased accuracy, and stronger enemies appear even sooner. This is the point where even the first few floors of the game can kill you reliably if you don't know the ins and outs of the game. Special levels additionally become very difficult, and entering them without the appropriate inventory and a good strategy will lead to swift deaths. It is unlocked at the Lance Corporal skill rank.
  • Nightmare! (N!): The exclamation point does not lie, this difficulty is for hardcore players only. In addition to Ultra-violence changes, enemies are even more numerous than UV, enemies can respawn at any time if their corpses are not destroyed, enemies attack much more frequently, and special levels become absolutely brutal. At least several of the ITYTD benefits are back to help. It is unlocked at the Sergeant skill rank.

The differences in game difficulty may seem subtle, but switching to a harder difficulty is easily the most frustrating part of playing DoomRL, diamond badges aside. Difficulty information has been tabulated: the columns are identified as follows:

  • Shorthand: How the difficulty is expressed on the score page (and in mortem tags on the forums)
  • Score Multiplier: How much your score is increased by, just by playing on that difficulty level
  • Ammo Multiplier: For randomly generated ammo, how much extra is added to each stack
  • Enemy Accuracy: How much the enemies' accuracy is changed on this difficulty
  • Enemy Spawns: How many enemies spawn on randomly generated levels, and how much their depth level is modified
  • Healing/Powerups: The duration/strength of powerups, and the health gain of small healing items
  • XP Multipler: How much increased experience is gained for killing enemies
  • Special: Any extra features regarding the difficulty level


Difficulty Levels
Difficulty Shorthand Score Multiplier Ammo Multiplier Enemy Accuracy Enemy Spawns Healing/ Powerups XP Multiplier Special
I'm Too Young To Die E 0.5 2 -1 Low/+0 Doubled 1.4 Acid/lava deals half damage, some special levels barred, no challenges
Hey, Not Too Rough M 1 1 +0 Normal/+0 Normal 1.2 N/A
Hurt Me Plenty H 1.5 1.25 +0 High/-3 Normal 1 N/A
Ultra-violence U 2 1.5 +2 Very High/-6 Normal 1 N/A
Nightmare! N! 4 2 +2 WTF/-6 Doubled 1.2 Respawning, +50% enemy attack chance
