All I wanted from this master level was the 2 missing encounters from the tyrant and archville. This delivered more than I could've asked for.

During the reveal trailer of the Doom Hunter there is a section where the Slayer fights him inside the piston room *The More You Know*

This ml is probably going to replace the arc complex ml as my "rust remover". I still feel the speed of og mars core, but now it's utilizing more heavy demons.

I spent so long killing the infinitely respawning hell knights etc in the marauder fight and eventually I realized I had to face those marauders. What a great twist from the developers. Despite being a little easy the entertainment and pacing of this level totally make up for it.

I love the keycard addition to this level. Of all the levels to have keycards, one set on Phobos and Mars seems like a no-brainer.

In the trailer for Update 6.66, after it lists off every single thing included, they put in the hell priest’s line: “We are not done yet!” id has probably got more in store and it’s exciting.

2:05 this was somehow a perfect transition. Like the pain elementals eye became the orange sphere in the middle of the room during the glory kill

FYI: The second marauder doesn't spawn until you kill the cyber mancubus, so you don't have to fight them both at the same time.

i really Hope they make at least the master levels for hell on earth , exultia and doom hunter base before dropping the support on the game , because that is inevitable.

This level may have been the easiest ML yet, but I absolutely loved it! It was already my favorite base game level, and now it’s even better! And I had the biggest nerd-gasm when the Archvile showed up outside like in the QuakeCon trailer! Plus, the difficulty was more than made up for with World Spear.

I really hope that Id at least gives us all of the main campaign master levels and gives us a Master Level Campaign mode, and a Ultra Nightmare Master Level Campaign. That would be crazy!

I really hope id goes back to the original 2 master levels, the Cultist Base and Samuel Haden's level ( I am shit with names) and makes them a bit more interesting. As it is, they are a bit like DLC levels but not up to the level of modern Master Levels.

"Whoever came up with this deserves a promotion." -- So you mean Proteh? Remember his Horde Mode double marauder encounter with the Mars Core music?

I had the same experience with this ML, several encounters just made me laugh. When I realized the gimmick of the marauder fight was infinitely respawning heavies I had to pause the game to crack up.

3:06 Officially the sussiest possessed soldier, he got caught venting!!!

I think modders will do great (and terrible) things when adding DLC enemies to these beautifully crafted Master Levels.

I was screaming at last fight in nightmare. Such a feeling to get through it.

I just made the change from console to pc recently, and this master level was a joy to play. The pacing, the environmentals, the enemy choice and placement and the subsequent combat encounters that were created, were just spot just on for me personally. It was a perfectly balanced experience and unlike Taras Nabad, the double Maraurder encounter was fun and engaging as opposed to being a continuously frustrating rinse and repeat process that made me feel mentally and physically drained by the end of it. It was actually my favourite arena and I think I subconsciously died a few times on purpose haha. Overall I think what makes Mars core work so well is that it caters to all levels of ability successfully, there's something for everybody there, whether you play on controller or kb&m, or easy or nightmare, it gives the player a great deal of freedom and doesn't force you to adhere to a particular style. It's my fav so far for sure.

That final level with 12 cybermancubi might be one of the most intense Doom Eternal moments of my life.

3:04 Cut the Zombie Soldier some slack Mayo, they didn't have enough shields so he used the Lazers lol

I hope we can at least get 1 more DLC master level. Hopefully a fully lore accurate Blood Swamps that is just pure torture until you beg for mercy.

If they don't make at least a few more master levels, I'll be very sad. Like, just make master levels for the rest of TAG 2, maybe blood swamps, the holt, Doom Hunter base... Nekravol... Urdak?

Glad to see these back, I barely have any time nowadays to watch full playthroughs, so I really appreciate this.

I hope that the Cultist base and arc complex master levels will be reworked Like a 2.0 Cultist Base and Arc Complex master level.

Probably my favorite master level. World spear was great, but exhausting. Is there evidence that this would be the last major update? I'm really hoping for a master level campaign to be done by the time they drop support.

Another thing I loved about this master level was the classic mode. Everytime I try a new master level I always go with classic mode, and this one showed so much improvement over the last ones. Stuff like starting with the plasma rifle and the full auto mod being the first weapons you find, especially after the buff, felt so good. Both are weapons I don't usually use a lot, and it made me do it, so I highly reccommend playing this classic mode, even if on a lower difficulty, just to enjoy the amazing level design.

10:25 I caught myself calling the fog/goo encounter with the Cacos “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs” and it’s now my headcanon that somebody at Id internally named it that.

I'm really glad the vents got a big encounter in them. That little roundabout area where you can see steam and spinning red lights is honestly one of my favourite rooms in Eternal. It's such a nice cramped little space and it sucked that I can blaze through it in less than 15 seconds in the main game. Same with the piston room! Mars Core has some of my favourite environments in the entire game and I'm really glad it got the Master treatment so we can see them a bit more

Its so cool they put that archvile throwback in there. Iove it

This review is super spot on. Everything mentioned took the words out of my mouth. More power Mayo!

This is my favorite master level right now. Been practicing it alot to do an UN run

Finished Mars Core the other day. I loved Jason's idea of heavy enemies in cramped spaces (closet tyrant trap, consecutive hallway archviles). And just so many carcasses and pinkies. I really enjoyed it

Smoothest ML, not alot of id bullshite trolling

Both levels were awsome and loving the hell outta horde mode!

My most memorable parts of Mars Core ML would have to be the purple goo capsule and that bit after the electrified floor and dread knight where you don't just go right and move on. It's so nice and such a small change but it's different enough to be fresh and new, plus being locked into a hall with a Tyrant

The last stage before the bridge over the lava took me ages. I died so many times. The one with all the shield guys and the two marauders was also really tricky. So hard to deal with a marauder when there are so many other enemies.

master levels are id's excuse for making plutonia levels, and its great

4:36 The best the new Fireborn Baron ever looked. He looks so cool when all you can see are his arm blades glowing through the fog. Otherwise, I feel like he and the Dreadknight look too similar with the arm swords.

"Now the Destroyer Blade room" Me with Heat Blast: You guys are using Destroyer Blade?

I really like when master levels have those fun and creative rooms. I didn’t even use Dblade in the “Dblade room” but instead used heat blast. Carcass puts up a wall in the middle, shoot it with plasma, and boom everyone’s dead

double marauder room: the 2nd marauder will only spawn if you kill the cyber mancubus

i think world spear is better but mars core is more replayable because it takes me about 2-3 hours to beat worlds spear on a comfortable difficulty

Great review! The mars core level was always the highlight of the campaign to me. The dynamic set pieces and were always so beautiful and compelling to me.

Love the unorthodox unmaker gameplay clips.

listening mayo being so happy just warms my heart

This master level was great because BFG 10K was consistently playing throughout the entire level. In the base campaign there was only two arenas where it played. That song fucking slaps and I was pissed it never showed up more in the level. This master level fixed that and I love it. The combat was great too, my favorite arena was the one with all of those damn pinkies and the buff totem spawned afterwards.

Just wrapping up a 're-carnage' tour through the stomping grounds of Quake and Quake II.... ....such a quantum, quantum leap when it comes to h o w the FPS evolved from those days to these, and what it f e e l s like to 'play' something built on top of the foundations we all learned, enjoyed and incorporated into the w a y we operate in these games.

What do you mean we are only getting a few more master levels?!?!? I want them ALL!!

I really enjoy this level, it has some creative and quirky combat encounters that are memorable and make the player think. Surprises, too! Great level!!

11:02 The first time this room, I had equipment fiend and punch and reave. Giving how claustrophobic that arena is, I was just having a blast ice bombing + flame belching to infinitely blood punch from the free refill with either the armour, health, or from the random glory kills I'd get. 10/10 It let me just punch wildly.

The Marauder and Doom Hunter had a cool intro in the game, I wish they had done that for the Arch Vile instead of just having him appear like any other enemy. I wonder if that Quake Con footage was going to be in the game and was cut for some reason

I found my self laughing and smiling during this whole level. One archvile down at the beginning just to be met with a second one was perfect. Or walking around a corner that you just came through just to be met with a perfectly time Tyrant was perfect. Purple goo in a tiny tube of death? Yes thank you. Spectre Whiplashes in fog is a perfect combination for a wtf moment. This level keeps you on your toes and yet is fun as hell to play.

I loved this ML, since it's pretty easy it was probably my favourite one given how much fun I had. Also BFG 10K absolutely slaps

The taras nabad master level is the best in my opinion. The fights in that big courtyard arena are my favourite fights in the game

The double marauder fight is my kryptonite in this level, finding angles to attack the marauders while not getting killed by other demons, managing health and ammo, and then added with the arenas small areas and platforms which cause the marauder AI to be extra threatening as it'll most likely dash and ssg you many times. A little exploit though is just getting up to the very top of the arena, none of the demons go up there.

I love this master level to death, it’s right in the sweet spot of Not crazy difficult, but also not at all easy too. Doing all the challenges for it didn’t take much time unlike the other master levels, but it was just so friggin enjoyable. And the encounters from the E3 showcase? Perfection. Probably my favorite master Level thus far.

11:32 just flame belch and blood punch the shield guys. One blood punch is guaranteed to stagger at least a few of them, so u can get the BP back. I easily defeat this room without firing a single shot

I thought the two marauders would happen at the last arena before you go to sentinel prime due to the many levels that a foggy marauder fight could use.

In my opinion one of the easiest master levels, completed UN in 2nd run, a great review tho 👍 keep up the great content

Loved the marauder fight. The hell knights are faster than the marauder so they always reach you first when you're waiting for the green flash.

While I was doing he double marauder arena, I was feeling the same way like I did when learning the game on NM. Honestly that arena is everything good about base Eternal.

I found it still pretty tough but I loved it. I found myself using grenade setups and equipment management better because you have to in this level! Due to lots of high pressure arenas that are on the smaller side, which is awesome!

I unironically want a hell on earth master level If it is the last one we get i will be happy

I’m hoping that they do more dlc master levels. I think all of the best base campaign levels are master levels now, and with the world spear master level, I’d like to see an immora master level, dlc 1 master levels (just imagine the blood swamps with screechers and stone imps), and maybe either a nekravol or doom hunter base master level

Man I remember when I was thinking "I wonder what a Mars Core ML will be like! There's so much platforming and narrow spaces!" And a week later it was announced to be in the making. Not disappointed at all with this * chef's kiss *

10:53 you know mayo panicks when he uses the crucible lol

cant wait for the world spear review. it's probably my favorite master level now. its great.

Am I the only one that struggles with marauder AI being really stupid? I liked the idea of the infinite spawning demons together with two marauders, but it got really frustrating when the marauders kept attacking when I wasn't even near them and just stared at me when I was in front of them.

8:28 LOOOLLLLL, This explains a lot. Spent over 15 minutes on my first run, in this room killing deamons to have the game crash to desktop. I remember killing one but I don't remember seeing a second one.

During the double marauder encounter I first intended just to pick off the heavy demons and kill the two marauders, but then they all respawned and I figured that my strategy wouldn’t work. I tried again several times because it’s a hard fight, but I did it.

Personally would’ve loved if they played the quake con archvile reveal cutscene in the level when you get to that part but then again they might have not been able to use the archiviles earlier

Something about the layout of the two marauder arena made it really difficult to get them to flash green cause of vertically and not a lot of space for him to run at you

I think the other clever thing that the double marauder room does is reward you for being fast with the marauder because the second spawn happens a bit after the first, this means that you can avoid fighting both if you are efficient but it’s hard because of the respawn, really plays with typical marauder strategy.

7:45 it’s really not because of how buggy the marauder gets with other demons in a cramped space, most of the time he was just staring at me doing nothing or doing his ssg attack it’s always a gamble for this arena on UN which is extremely annoying. But I guess sgn and taras had the same kind of encounters, sgn the 2 tyrant and cyber demon room, Taras Nabad the coin room and the double archvile room.

4:58 weird blocky particle glitch when he's using the beam here

i loled when the door locked and the hallway started filling with purple goo.

100% agree about the use of the Marauder on this level

Even if it definitely isn't as hard as the other to preceding master levels, this one really is a blast to play. It's nice not to feel like we have to have harder and harder levels with these to have fun, it's also nuts how much it feels like Id keeps reinventing their own formula in doing all that.

There are masterlevels for doom hunter base, exultia, and hell on earth hidden in the game files since a very long time ago but for some reason they won't release them. They're on the same level of difficulty as arc complex and cultist base.

I love seeing someone use the Unmaykr, I wish it was used more often.

Finished this on nightmare yesterday. For me this was a serious challenge, makes normal Mars Core seem like a piece of cake to be honest. Was even ablevto speed rush it for UN practice and only fumbled in the last fight where I should've just cheesed BFG

I'm glad someone else used the D-blade on the shield guys, I haven't seen anyone else do that, and its a pretty obvious solution.

For the last Masterlevel they make it would be nice to have a boss fight. Final Sin, Kahn Makyr idk just a Boss as the final topping when they stop doing master levels. I think that would be insane

Hey Mayo, the room filled with shield guys and carcasses is really fun to take on with the heat blast mod! even one pip of charge instantly destroys shield, please give it a try!

I believe next generation versions and remasters could help the cause of continued support which would be required for future releases like switch 2 could have ultimate doom eternal with all levels with master versions. So the base version may see a couple early maps from the next release bunch - also maybe vr and psvr 2.

Overall not hard but still great ID quality. I can see why they chose to market the update using Horde Mode and the World Spear ML, because that one definitely hits harder than this. I love the nods to the trailers in this and the theme of Arachnotrons and Cacodemons it has. They fit right in, just like the Carcasses in SGN. They choose specific demon types and hazards that fit the environments as much as they can without tampering with balances and pacing, which is something I dig a lot.

It's like they took everything that could be nitpicked and dialed them up to like twelve. As expected when you are literally fighting the forces of Hell.

Great Master Level and Great Review! Btw, I figured out a more optimal way to kill a Cyber Manc. Using the Chaingun Shield, activate Shield, push in to Blood Punch, then start using the standard fire of the CG w/ shield, then wait for the stagger to refill your BP.

11:31 that room is a lot easier with heat blast. that is not even a destroyer blade room. that room was the secret encounter with the 8 mancubi

Love this masterlevel a lot! Especially on classic mode

The Hell Knights in the double Marauder arena don't get enough credit. They kept jumping in just as I was about to shoot the Marauder(even before the second one spawned). When it was over I just wondered how they never tried this before. Marauders are so much harder to deal with when paired with pressure units.

Loved this ML, would be sad if its their last but also exited cause that would mean they are going full steam ahead on their next game

If ID drops one more update with The Blood Swaps ML and Maybe Nekravol, along with a few fixes/updates for Horde it would be a perfect send off leaving the game with the right amount of content for hardcore players to keep returning. I sadly know Battlemode will never get any bigger in terms on player count/ community than what it is now, and will eventually very unfortunately die, but if they can drop one more level the Battlemode skrim scene can live on due to dedicated DIscords.

Waiting for the world spear review!

I despise having to fight two marauders while several heavy demons are on my ass.

You briefly mention (at around 6:03) that Arachnotrons are some of your favorite enemies to combo at this point. What're some of your favorite combo's against them? I'm loving some Mancubi combo's myself.

This level felt like a classic action movie. Some of the incidental encounters are just amazing

The fact that he called the shield guy room "something to cool you down before the last battle" makes my heart hurt. I literally quit the level because I couldn't figure out that you were supposed to use the destroyer blade.

I absolutely loved this level. My feelings are decidedly mixed on the World Spear (mainly because I dislike pretty much all of the DLC enemies, and I don't like the sentinel hammer either), but this one is just a complete blast to play. I would have liked to have seen the intro sequence cut, but that's a nitpick.
