MAP32: Go 2 It (The Plutonia Experiment)

MAP32: Go 2 It is the second secret map of Plutonia. It can be reached from MAP31, and uses the music track "Nobody Told Me About id" from Doom.

This level is a highly edited version of Doom II's MAP01: Entryway.

Overview
In the interlevel screen who prelude the map, it is stated by Id Software it is "the hardest map we get ready for ya". Finish the level is not actually that difficult: in the first chamber are present all weapons, and plenty of ammo is found thereafter, as well as nine megaspheres. This scaring introduction is due to the unmatched quantity of though monsters included in the map, but the level design allows the player to reach, all along the game, safe spots out of range from enemies, where he can wait monster infighting to make most of the work.

Strategy
Although, at first, Go 2 It may seem to be ridiculously overdone and far too difficult for any human being, there are actually a few important things to keep in mind when playing this.
 * Only use Megaspheres when you really actually need them.
 * Your prime weapon is the rocket launcher; the best alternative to that is probably the plasma gun, then your BFG9000.
 * When Arch-viles are present, focus on them first.
 * Some Cyberdemons will appear in little rooms down one of the halls. Since they can't enter the hall, you can pop around the corner every couple of seconds and fire a volley of rockets.
 * Other Cyberdemons will show up four at a time. With the ones in the big courtyard, kill them by firing out the window in the upper room.  There are also more Cyberdemons in the final courtyard.  You should be able to run fast to the exit room, closing the doors behind you before the Cyberdemons can catch up.
 * Keep in mind that every key you pick up will release a new flood of demons. Sometimes it'll become apparent right away; other times, you may have to go looking before you find them.
 * If a large group of demons are running around after you, with Arch-viles resurrecting ones you kill, try to get to a place where they cannot pursue you but where you can shoot them. Note that the monster AI does not allow the monsters to take long circuitous paths to get to you, but they head toward you pretty much directly.
 * Getting monsters bunched up in one place ("herding") rather than spread out is very helpful. You do not need to worry about being shot at in all directions, and you can take advantage of the splash damage of the rocket launcher and BFG9000. This is perhaps most effective on the courtyard at the western side of the map.
 * Save the game as often as possible, so if you die, you do not lose much progress.



Secrets

 * 1) The outdoor area (analogous to the outdoor area of Doom II MAP01: Entryway) counts as a secret.
 * 2) The room containing the red keycard (analogous to the rocket launcher room in Entryway) counts as a secret.
