I believe its because some of those reviews are from people who got it through the humble store.

?
rare musk
So all the keys you pushed out here you mean
gleaming berry
they do but they dont count toward the score
gleaming berry
its so people cant "buy" reviews etc
balmy sluice
They just count as a recommendation.
tired whale
That's interesting, never knew that
gleaming berry
it was a recent change
tired whale
So would that mean like, getting a key from a store wouldn't count?
gleaming berry
so free game getters cant skew the score
rare musk
Well they don't even count as a recommendation on Steam's store page itself, evidently, only somewhere hidden in the database they presumably didn't update
gleaming berry
correct
Which makes DUSK's score even more UNPRECEDENTED

I've been thinking about this...is Dusk really going to be a game that gets negative reviews at all? I don't mean because it's perfect (it's not) but because it's so niche that no one but the target audience will leave good reviews.
Maybe during a Winter sale 8 years from now, I can imagine idiots buying this and complaining
but for now, I think its own relative obscurity will work to deflect most complaints for now
Who would pay $20 for a game they know they wouldn't like? This isn't the '90s when all you had was magazines
balmy sluice
Thats a good point actually.
dim valve
The only people I can see leaving negative reviews are the hardcore_gamers of the world
Anybody who knows Doomworld knows what I mean
gleaming berry
well I think we've done a very good job at telling people WHAT DUSK is and who it's for
and if you're into that youre gonna like it
people leave bad reviews for several reasons
- It isnt the kind of game they thought it was
- They have bugs performance issues
- They just dont like it
opaque spindle
I bought it hoping it was a moba

And 1/2 really dont happen with DUSK

#2 is such a bad point, it's not David's fault if your shitty-ass laptop can't run a unity game

I believe if Dusk came out on 1996, would be a success
dim valve
but it is true, sadly
orchid meteor
performance issues?
gleaming berry
Im not saying DUSK has issues
Im saying thats why people leave bad game reviews
and since DUSK doesnt have any performance issues or bugs and people know exactly what it is going in
we dont get bad reviews
orchid meteor
Dusk is the most optimized game I have in my library

@orchid meteor I saw someone leave a bad review for Rage literally because their 2003 laptop couldn't run it at more than 10 FPS. Steam reviews are cancer, man

i don't suppose lighting is the problem

low performance mode i think even shuts it off?

I mean, that'd be so bizarre to be the reason but w/e

opal plover
Are you sure David didn't use a train mesh just for the lighting?
thorn trout
lol that story is great
mild ginkgo
i checked, sadly, it isnt that easy
that level really upsets me, because its a performance killer RIGHT at the beginning of the game
so new players might get upset that they run into that and think the rest of the game is the same way
opal plover
Have a sign in front of the farm that say "this level run bad, pls dont refund"
opal plover
Have M2 as the E3 super secret map

stone thistle
the whole game so far runs like a dream on my pc

its significantly worse than most of the other levels

does it only run worse when being outside or also when you're inside the house etc.?

have not been lurking a while. Any news on SDK and modding?
opal plover
All supported, workshop is planned too
gleaming berry
itsa comin
echo epoch
There's a sticky about it, but it's a bit dated
" DUSK SDK Info Dump 2tm
- TrenchBroom is the "officially" supported mapping tool, but that doesn't mean others won't receive support or testing.
- The SDK will contain various tools to aid with mod creation, but none are necessary if you enjoy developing raw (shaders are exempt from this).
- Scripting is done in C#, however you are not required to compile scripts yourself (think DECORATE/ZScript in GZDoom).
- There are a series of custom definition formats to define maps, game settings, etc.
- The official game data formats are IQM (models), PNG (textures), flac (audio), however they are not the only ones you can use.
- You are able to load Quake 3 MD3 models, and potentially Quake 1 MDL models down the line. However, this feature is not officially supported, so don't expect it to be flawless.
- Yes, there will be a console. It's comparable to Quake 2 and GZDoom's.
- An .fgd and a .wad will be provided for use in Quake mapping tools. The game itself does not load these files.
- There is a feature called "unsafe mode" that gives modders completely unhindered access to the internal and Unity APIs through scripting. However, making a mod require this feature is discouraged, and players must manually enable unsafe mode themselves.
- A portion of cut/unused content will be left in the game for modders to make use of."

wintry grail
If I can leave a suggestion here, could we have more floor and wall blood? Like the characters bleed an obnoxious amount, but it's weird to see no aftermath.
Like in duskworld there are characters flying around and blowing up like confetti and yet there is like 2 tiny drops of blood on the ground
graceful wing
we've been looking into that for a while. the main issue is that blood splatters like that absolutely kill performance
echo epoch
Decals do?
Huh
Also, different blood for appropriate enemies would be a welcome addition
Like sparks for robots
Straw for strawman
eternal carbon
does anyone else here have a problem where the reset level hotkey stops working? relaunching the game doesnt fix it and neither does rebinding the key, it seemingly just goes away on its own eventually but its kind of annoying to deal with
wintry grail
@graceful wing what if you keep the amount of blood decals the same, but have a slider in the settings to change the size of them?
If it lags, the player can turn them down
Not sure if that's a big enough priority for the effort, but it's a potential way to do that
graceful wing
dunno if @thorn trout has looked into it recently but he'd be the one to know
thorn trout
it's not lag that's the issue, it's because the blood decals aren't decals, they're particles
because Unity doesn't have a native decal solution
prisma halo
still surprises me that there isn't one
prisma halo
it's one of the most basic things
thorn trout
the reason I went with the particle solution as opposed to, like, something hacky with projectors or something like that which would allow for decal-like behavior, is because particles have a very low impact on performance so bullet holes and blood splatters can persist rather than fading after a period of time or a certain number of "decals"
I could have looked into rolling my own decal system but 1) wasn't really high on the priority list and 2) not something I have much knowledge in so it would have taken time and effort
I decided to put that time/effort toward other parts of the game.
Once mod tools are out I have no doubt that someone will look into doing a "Brutal Dusk" mod or something like that
eternal carbon
any thoughts on the reset level function not working randomly?
thorn trout
hmm?
eternal carbon
been having a bug where the reset level hotkey randomly stops working like its functionallity is toggled off
and restarting the game doesnt fix it and neither does rebinding the key
empty zodiac
mines became slower at resetting for some reason
was instant before
if changed keybinds for it etc
thorn trout
@eternal carbon can you replicate the issue and send me your debug_log?
eternal carbon
i dont know how to replicate it because it just seemingly toggles functionallity at random, but it was currently affecting my game when i last played it, ill see if its still doing it
where do i locate the debug log
prisma halo
Go into the game's launch options on Steam and put -logFile <path/to/file.txt> where <path/to/file.txt> is well, the path you want to save the log to
for example -logFile c:\dusklog.txt
If there is a space in the path, put it inside double-quotes
-logFile "c:\my folder\dusklog.txt"
eternal carbon

but if you jump a long gap while carrying an object and then you throw it, you get a tiny bit of extra distance
eternal carbon
sounds kind of neat but is is applicable anywhere? cant think of too many long gaps
uneven belfry
maybe there could be something about carrying a gascan, and quick meleeing it to get ever further, idk
eternal carbon
if you're already carrying the gas can i'd say throwing it at the ground slightly behind you before the jump will be more beneficial than doing something with it mid jump
gleaming berry
press X to dig
mild ginkgo
youre the only one who has reported that
so itll be interesting to see if i ever surfaces again
eternal carbon
it's happened to me a grand total of 3 times in about 80 hours of speedrunning the game so far
so it doesnt exactly seem like a common bug lol, probably a lot of circumstances leading to it happening
wintry grail
@thorn trout I know nothing about unity, but I decided to look into it. Could you use something like this https://youtu.be/iI78lo5jMoo
I think it's a pre-made asset thing, but it says it allows for decals to be put onto meshes in real time.
Also isn't strafe made in unity aswell?
That has fuckin amazing blood effects
thorn trout
I'm generally wary of using purchsed assets unless absolutely necessary, because they can cause as many problems as they solve. Strafe had a custom gore system that they spent a lot of time and resources on (and also apparently was the cause of performance problems).
tawny briar
Guys do any of u know what to do with the cristal of madness?
wintry grail
Never had any performance issues in strafe, but I can understand that
mild ginkgo
Strafe had a lot of launch performance issues
Unfortunately
The 4th zone would just TANK if you managed to get that far before any patches
opaque spindle
Never had perfomance issues with the game at launch
I just had issues with the game itself
mild ginkgo
You were lucky then
Or just not aware of them
They put a patch out for it on like day 3
I still say that game had a great final boss
thorn trout
It had significant performance problems for a lot of people, especially since people expected it to run on anything given the throwback visuals.
mild ginkgo
But getting past zone 4 was tough at like 30 fps
thorn trout
one of the reasons was the (I assume cpu-intensive) gore system

aaaaaah gotcha. Does setting it to 1 override what i pick in game or vice-versa?

I don't believe it will do anything. I can't even remember why it's stored in there :P

Dusk ep3 when? march or april?
uneven belfry
btw like
idk if that was on purpose but i was getting some heavy FEAR vibes from the second episode
i guess because of the whole underground cramped spaces and stuff
winged otter
Fear vibes?
balmy sluice
you know, the game FEAR?
winged otter
yes i am aware of that game,but im suprised someone is comparing these games locations
stone thistle
kinda sure besides Blood etc Chasm had some influence on DUSK too
stone thistle
I do and I would really like to see a remastered version of it with high res support etc.
north whale
yeah that would be a nobrainer for me ^^
mild ginkgo
Chasm is literally like the main inspiration of dusk
north whale
Probably ask nightdive if they do a remaster ^^
mild ginkgo
Ask @thorn trout
stone thistle
check out GGGmans review for Chasm on YT. He has download links for that version in the description.
or let 500_pts just post it ๐
winged otter
this is a nice package but its running trough dosbox,i hope PanzerChasm gets finished one day
stone thistle
if only there was a way to use higher resolutions without using Panzerchasm
winged otter
i like the 60 fps smoothness of Panzerchasm also
quiet rose
I also helped. Found fixes and the cd files/etc :(
north whale
is chasm Q1 engine?
north whale
damn k
winged otter
Chasm has 2,5D engine
thorn trout
yeah Chasm's engine is super weird
layouts are like midway between Wolf3d and Doom, so you have angled walls but no variable heights, but then layered on top of that is support for polygonal models (which they use any time they want to fake different heights) and realtime lighting
stone thistle
since I have not tested the portable version yet: does the music work in that one?
quiet rose
Yea
It uses DOSBOX
I tested it a bunch before sending it to david for finishing touches
stone thistle
cool
winged otter
im playing Chasm portable right now,music is working
daaamn,shooting enemies arms\heads off never gets old
this is implemented so good๐
stone thistle
yeah that mechanic is cool
dim valve
Speaking of which, did Zombie ever finish that Dusk dismemberment mod?
winged otter
interesting,never heard about this
dim valve
There's some screenshots of it in the SDK, but you'll have to go back about 2 or 3 months to find them
thin sphinx
HUH brutal dusk when?
winged otter
hopefully never
vale oar
There is certainly a person who will MOD IT IN
gleaming berry
pretty sure @prisma halo has all the dismemberment and headshot stuff working
winged otter
is there any chance for making this official part of Dusk?
gleaming berry
probably not
that's what the SDK and workshop are for
no sense reworking the base game for something like that
unless you want the game to take longer lol
dim valve
aka they don't want to pay Zombie more for a feature that would actually attract even more of an audience
gleaming berry
totally ^^
dim valve
the gore is actually func_vehicle, sorry
gleaming berry
all bodies are actual door triggers
I mean @thorn trout is lost to Subnautica anyway so Dusk is cancel

gleaming berry
bless that awful engine
I used to make oblivion and fallout mods
what a shitshow
everything is a hack
molten peak
I keep getting strong urges to reinstall Oblivion, but at this point I can't play it unmodded and modding that game is like getting a cactus enema
crystal vessel
That is what his message said
molten peak
oof
opaque spindle
Damn you got me
gleaming berry
yah I mean if I still had time I'd probably make Fallout and Skyrim mods
but I am old now
and lazy
and busy doing whatever this is
opaque spindle
Dave tears down New Blood just to make Fallout 4 and Skyrim weapon mods
and then make that sweet sweet moolah off of creation club
that whole 20 bucks they give you for it

how ironic that their empire was founded upon a minecraft mod, then

Yeah lets take this to general
dim valve
It's rather fitting that Dusk is being delayed by David's procrastination with Subnautica, considering that John Romero himself became complacent with Doom 2 deathmatch and other such hobbies (Chrono Trigger?)
gleaming berry
^^
gleaming berry
I mean the good news is i ends
thank god
I mean so DUSK is delayed 50 hours nbd
warped saffron
I think it's time...
...to cancel DUSK.
Then tease DUSK 2.
Cancel that.
Then announce a reboot simply titled "DUSK".

with graphics

i personally am hyped for dusk 2 with graphics
dim valve
I'm just glad David isn't George Broussard and is not going to make the rest of Dusk an underwater exploration game TBH
molten peak
No Man's Dusk
gleaming berry
there is 100% an underwater level in dusk now btw
because of subnautica
in ep 3
cosmic urchin
we gettin spooky ass eldritch water monsters?

I'd be down for eldritch water monsters.

if you guys need inspiration i know of plenty of weird ass creatures
thin sphinx
you know a entire underwater map would be awesome
especcially for those who use 6dof
slate edge
it has potential to be fun
thin sphinx
i would like to see about creatinga underwater map with bizzare geometry for an ep3 dm map
opaque spindle
Does that mean scuba powerup?
slate edge
I havent seen an oxygen bar in Dusk, are you talking about the lava suit?
crystal vessel
You don't have breath in DUSK

it could be cool to have a portion of DM arena that has water above and below but can fire on the platform in the middle
you dont have to

If dusk is so good why isnt there a dusk 2
gleaming berry
good point

maybe Dusk is actually Dusk 4, but they went with the Doom school of naming

If E3 does get an underwater level I want the area over the water to look like that one cut bloodborne boss arena http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0_M3t3UVao&t=7m20s
Maybe some blue and red lighting too

I can't play anymore till I get my dying intake fan replaced, it sucks

in opposite to subnautica it should've us blowing up an underwater base ^^

Blowing up Devil's reef

balmy sluice
My buddy has a lever action we do that with. Its so fucking fun.
It never gets old in dusk either.
atomic egret
I never even thought of the posibility that it could actually be done
balmy sluice
Its done in one of the Terminator movies. Thats the first place I remember seeing it.
mild chasm
The thing is it's a good risk at breaking your fingers by accident if you screw it up and even if you're willing to risk that it requires an enlargened lever loop to even be feasible
Mare's leg rifles tend to have those stock though
balmy sluice
Duskdude is just a natural. He doesnt have time for breaking his fingers.
crystal vessel
Not having hands helps
atomic egret
the power of telekenesis
mild chasm
Dusk dude has such high willpower that he just wills his guns into working despite his lack of hands
Money and valuable gems give him even more willpower so as to reduce damage from bullets with his mind

Makes sense

Hey guys is this game due out mid year or later?

im reading steam reviews
"Rating 9/10 if they add superb high tech weapon (not too op) and another additional episode i'll give perfect score. (nvm modders will make the game even epic, like brutal doom) "
hmmm
balmy sluice
But why are you reading steam reviews?
winged otter
why the hell not?
molten peak
"Hmmm... an early-access game with the second episode ending on a cliff-hanger that blatantly states there's more to come... I wonder if there's going to be another episode."

north whale
Sooo haven'T done any research which engine is Dusk? Will it get Steamworks integration?
north whale
It is? O_o nice
prisma halo
Yeah, for multiplayer
north whale
Time to make some maps then
mild ginkgo
as a fair warning
mild ginkgo
^
north whale
Yeah I know mod support is not there yet
prisma halo
but it is planned
north whale
Can maps already be used?
prisma halo
No, but it's being actively worked on
north whale
For MP?
prisma halo
They can be imported with some work but not used directly
mild ginkgo
just for testing purposes
north whale
Ah OK
prisma halo
Basically you make a map, send it to 500, and he'll doctor it a bit to get it running
mild ginkgo
ive cooked some builds for people to test their maps
north whale
So manual loading of maps works with some tweaks
mild ginkgo
yeah
prisma halo
Eventually you should be able to just give the game your map
north whale
Yeah no rush guys the game isn't even out ^^
mild ginkgo
modding is a big deal for a lot of people
north whale
raises hand
mild ginkgo
so we have a high priority on it
mild ginkgo
definitely an important part of the retro fps experience
north whale
Aye
Hm I think Dusk is the best retro FPS to go to right now
Can't think of anything even close to it
mild ginkgo
i agree
even though im biased
there isnt a modern product that you can really compare to it
mild ginkgo
yes you can go play quake etc, but also we've been playing quake for 20 years
so its nice to have fresh blood
north whale
The big selling point for me with Dusk are the maps I've gotta say
north whale
Sure movement and weapons is all great but we had that with Quake
mild ginkgo
its already off to a great start
north whale
It's supposed to work xD
