The higher tier monsters like Barons and its mutations, are really durable so do not think and bring your M2 Plasma Rifle.
Desert Eagle deals a lot of damage to the medium hellspawn (3-4 shots against Cacos) while it's quite mediocre against smaller enemies. Basically using the Desert Eagle without dual wielding is quite difficult, it shows the full potential with akimbo playstyle. Once picked up, it replaces it permanently - it has twice the ammo capacity but it eats pistol bullets really fast. The Desert Eagle is fully functional in this release - you can dual wield, aim and shoot, it's an upgrade for the Revolver. In case of the Shotgun with magazine upgrade crash, head to the hotfix-reporting-and-requests room of Project Brutality discord and get the pk3 hotfix. Keep in mind when playing this Project Brutality revision from GitHub, everything is Work In Progress so bugs are EXPECTED. Also, when you look at the Project Brutality Trello account, there are so many ideas to implement that it might take some time. Project Brutality will probably be released after the DOOM:Eternal so it might take some time.
50 pistol and we are going to visit Extermination Day with it. Project Brutality 3.0 is an upcoming version of one of the best available mods for the classic Doom. Ive looked everywhere and I cant find the latest version. This issue does not occur with the PB 3.0 public test version from January 2018.
