Since the arrival of Doom, our office productivity has sunk to an all time low.

I found that there is no fun in playing the solo version.  We get four of us 
together and play the network version for hours.  On one level we had a 
combined frag count of 110+, the only problem is if you get slightly wounded 
each time you kill a person, and you kill 5 or 6 times before getting killed, 
you get a health that one lucky shot can kill you. 

With the new version 1.2, I read that they would have random monsters teleport 
in, how about random health bonuses, etc..

BTW ,
Are there any other good multiplayer network games out there?
