This causes the cyberdemon in particular to react violently, whereafter it will attack more aggressively. They can also be offended by raising a middle finger and shouting, which alerts non- deaf monsters like a weapon would.

Some enemies can be taunted with laughter.

Certain enemies, such as the baron of Hell, Hell knight, arachnotron and cyberdemon, have been made larger.

New extra weapons (such as the submachine gun, railgun, grenade launcher, etc.) can be optionally enabled or disabled.

For example, the rocket launcher deals much more impact damage but has a lower rate of fire and a smaller blast radius, along with backblast damage that can be toggled off.

All weapons have remastered and smoother sprites and animations.

There are dynamic fluids that flow and splash.

Enemies also have fatality animations if they kill the player (or sometimes, other lesser enemies) with a melee attack.

Players with berserk can also grab smaller enemies like the zombieman or imp.

If fatalities are disabled, then monsters will be smashed.

Fatalities can be disabled by pressing R while holding fists, and with R can be enabled again. These animations grant temporary invincibility and restore some portion of health, depending on the monster type.

When berserk, players can perform fatalities on enemies.

There are more complex gibs and extensive decal bloodstains.

In addition, the player can also slide kick and air kick by crouching and moving forward while kicking, jumping while moving forward while kicking, respectively.

The player can kick monsters away (Default Key: Q), similar to Duke Nukem 3D.
