Dead.wire

dead.wire is a single-level PWAD for Doom 2 that requires GZDoom source port to play. It was designed by Xaser Acheron.

The map has received one of the 22nd Annual Cacowards.

Plot
After a "strange" signal originated from a deserted installation, an engineer (the player himself) has been employed by the UAC to investigate the source of the signal.

The WAD "tells the tale of what happens next..."

Weapons
The WAD includes the following weapons to the game:
 * Rifle (pistol replacement) when using primary attack fires at a higher rate than original pistol and consumes clips. When using the secondary attack it consumes shells behaving like shotgun.
 * M16 rifle (chaingun replacement) features both primary and secondary attack modes that consume clips. It fires at high rate at the primary attack and rapidly at the secondary attack requiring delays on the other hand.
 * Flamethrower (rocket launcher) projects flames to burn enemies at the primary attack. At the secondary attack drops fuel to the ground that can be later ignited using either the flamethrower itself or HRC.
 * Laser rifle (plasma gun replacement) is powerful weapon that is effective against strong enemies, such as arch viles, mancubi, arachnotrons and revenants.
 * HRC (BFG 9000 replacement), which can only be found in the final area, produces red laser spheres that are effective against bunches of enemies as well as cyberdemons. This should be used cautiously, however, since it creates splash damage when firing at the walls, solid objects and alive enemies.
