mild chasm
Quite a few games do that
opal plover
That's like if you couldn't get back to the single shotgun in doom
Have you ever considered having the sword pickup be vertical?
mild chasm
Shadow warrior, serious sam, etc.
Dualies that you can switch back to for practicality
mild ginkgo
i have nothing to do with art in the game, so thats up to david
im just fixing bugs while david tries frantically to finish the game
jade root
I just wish David would fix that mage seeing you through a wall on e1m1
But he keeps ignoring me!!!
mild ginkgo
he got to work on [redacted] and [redacted]
tbh theres not even a card for that
put it up and ill look at it
atomic egret
is [redacted] the one cam and I put up?
opal plover
Anyway, how much work did it take to get E3M8 to be just right, Scott?
jade root
Where's my toggle autorun !!!
mild ginkgo
well, the level order actually has been shuffled since i spoke about it
opal plover
For the difficulty or for story reasons?
mild ginkgo
story
jade root
I can't find the E3MS2 enterance cause they moved it ;(
mild chasm
Where's my options to turn off vertical and mouse aiming you absolute wankers
mild ginkgo
i mean just bind turn left and right to a key
and then dont use the mouse
boom, doom mode
mild chasm

opal plover
Has there been some planned changes to E1 like the E1M2 nailed soldier that you didn't put in the last update?
jade root
We made e1m2 run worse
mild ginkgo
there likely WILL be changes like that
theres at least one i can think of that we've talked about
opal plover
Yeah E1M2 should be the lore dump level honestly
mild ginkgo
but the early episodes havent had a second pass yet
as you know, david is working on the ending, and theres not really anyone else who can do that job
opal plover
That you've talked about in the update news?
mild ginkgo
no that we've talked about internally
opal plover
Yeah ending is the number1 priority
mild chasm
The ending is dave challenging you to a boxing match
All the while doing the big john voice

mild chasm
I'm excited for the new tracks in EP3
and just getting hold of the soundtrack in general
jade root
Ep3s soundtrack is good except for the parts that aren't done yet
opal plover
Yeah I want to know what Big John's soundtrack is called
mild ginkgo
i listen to it all the time its good
jade root
Like I don't think e3m7 should be Andrew screaming "rock and roll McDonalds" into a broken mic
mild chasm
Wow discord sure crapped it's pants in quite a hilarious fashion there
I didn't add the last bit
opal plover
Also is the final boss theme like argueably the best boss track?
mild chasm
I hope E3M7 is Andrew screaming rock n roll mcdonalds into a broken mic
jade root
E3M9 is just a rip of New York Pizza Shop
mild ginkgo
rare musk
E3m7 confirmed for ripoff of thr dukeburger level but licensed by McDonalds
Prove me wrong
opal plover
Yeah and it still has that plot twist ending Duke burger had for some reason?...

I like the part in Dusk where big john says he likes Bladerunner 2049

celest gorge
Hey, that New York Pizza thing isn't bad. Goes pretty well with the endless Factory.
opal plover
Definitely gonna need some work, because right now it's like basically a flat plane with a structure
Also at this point they might aswell turn other SP levels into endless ones
opal plover
Well yeah it's not like E3M5 is just a big serious sam type thing
But it's not like the endless level is gonna be that huge flat area AND some underground stuff
Anyway my personnal suggestion is to make the cathedral be part of the verticallity, like add another floor to it and multiple entrances and such
vale oar
I'd like to add another floor to the Factory either
cause it seems too claustrophobic atm
opal plover
Anyway seems like you either have ludicrous jump pads or the flying powerup in that map, which I like

Is the Nameless City chapter something that's out, I just haven't unlocked yet, or is it a coming soon kind of thing?
graceful wing
You won't have to wait too long
shell arch
well - i already waited this long
shut mesa
i've been here since last christmas
graceful wing
Go play some endless / run through the game on a higher difficulty
shut mesa
not very cash money
shell arch
yeah - i still have to find the secret map on e2
or two of them - according do some memes
graceful wing
Nah ep2 has one secret level
shell arch
i kinda want to check out the multiplayer - it's been a while since i played anything like this
neon dove
The name 'Nameless City' heavily hints Lovecraft so I'm pretty hyped
shell arch
i'll have to look into frag nights and how you guys organize it and all that
clever wasp
basically you sign up through the lfg channel
every saturday at i-don't-even-know pm, it starts
and goes on until the last person disconnects
neon dove
Also is the Thresher/infernal machine kind of a nod to Stephen King's 'Mangler' short story?
shell arch
ok, thanks 
neon dove
I played duskworld the other night with 2/3 other random folk, i was getting my but kicked but it was fun
clever wasp
is great fun
you have to really work on rivet aim
it's kind of like trying to get them pesky bhoppers in Q3A
shell arch
and speaking of quake 3
does anyone here remember a little mod for it called "Urban terror"?
just checking
slate edge
yes, but i never got to play online. I`d recommend moving the conversation to #gaming though if its not dusk related 👍🏻
shell arch
yeah i get you - i just wanted to ask, that's all
anyway - back to ducks - i noticed there's a basketball hoop on e1m2
is there a basket ball or something around?
clever wasp
I'm just trying to not give a straight answer tbh
shell arch
i guess im blind then because i went through everything on this map
clever wasp
I'm of the "teach a man how to fish" mind
shell arch
i even destroyed every single tree and i can't find it
shut mesa
"it cant be that well hidden" is a straight up lie
shell arch
but okay
shut mesa
shell arch
that's all i wanted to know
i wanted to know if there actually is something to look for
thanks
clever wasp
you might have missed a spot
try and look behind you sometimes before leaving
(or around, at any rate)
it helps getting all the way to the end of a room
shell arch
okay
fast wigeon
i will confirm that there is a basketball on the map
its just hidden
hidden inside a hidden area
clever wasp
aw, you've said too much
fast wigeon
you found it?
shell arch
yup - thanks guys
fast wigeon
i think i found it on my 3rd time through
shut mesa
When ep1 came out and everyone was secret hunting
fast wigeon
hard to remember tho considering ive played that level atleast 30 times
shell arch
oh wait - it doesn't count as a secret then
so... i've found two things that aren't secrets
clever wasp
Rachael's room does not, but what's after the teleporter does
fast wigeon
what was the non-basketball secret then
fast wigeon
also ep2 has a similar sort of secret that you need to go out of bounds to get to
clever wasp
wait, you're missing one secret, is that what you're saying ?
shell arch
yeah - i thought that this basketball hoop might lead me to it
clever wasp
did you get the one that is triggered by going near the secret exit ?
shell arch
yes
fast wigeon
this ur second time through ep1?
clever wasp
pretty sure I know which one you're missing then
shell arch
yeah it's my second time
shell arch
6
fast wigeon
o
ive got every secret on that level like a gazillion times and i can only remember 4 rn
shell arch
oh i got the one near the beginning already
shell arch
yeah
fast wigeon
i did too
shell arch
anyway - thanks guys
fast wigeon
is there even any hints for that haystack secret
thats the only one i had to look up
shell arch
there'sa bit of blood on it, i guess
clever wasp
ye, the bale is in the ground a bit
shell arch
and some assault rifle ammo near it
celest gorge
Rachel's Room was pretty funny for me. I actually found the basketball first and kept trying to figure out why it was there.
I didn't get it until I accidentally saw the room itself over the trees, then looked around for a way to open it.
The haybale was the last one I found, and only because I noticed the crack in the ground.
Has anyone else managed to jump over the gate at the end of E1M2?
clever wasp
is easy
celest gorge
Well yeah. I mean it's not hard. I was just wondering if anyone else had found that.
I know you can get out of bounds on Ghost Town, Down on the Farm, and Grainery. Are there any others?
fast wigeon
if a level has the tree texture as its walls you can get out of bounds
with the exception of e1ms
clever wasp
basically that
fast wigeon
also you can get oob on e2m9
by jumping off the huge cliff then crossbow hovering back into it
celest gorge
Is that Blood and Bone?
fast wigeon
na its the dig
celest gorge
Oh right.
clever wasp
for a given value of "bounds", you can get OOB in E2M7 as well
if you jump off of the temple roof secret in a certain direction and xbow hover for a (long) time, you eventually hit a fog colored wall
you can rivet jump over it and get to the level exit
saves a fuckton of time
fast wigeon
i think theres more levels where you can get oob than ones where you cant
opaque spindle
Not if you try hard enough
clever wasp
you can also get OOB on Sawmill, but it's useless
opaque spindle
And if you belieeeeve
fast wigeon
yea you can get oob anywhere apparantly
if you roll into a wall and get realy really lucky
opaque spindle

Tool Assisted Speedrun
opaque spindle

eternal carbon
sawmill oob isn't useless, it leads right to the exit lol
clever wasp
not straight away, you'd need to item hover to get to it
just rivet jumping over the trees won't take you anywhere near the exit
even if you xbow hover
eternal carbon
we're talking about e1m5, right?
clever wasp
sawmill, yes
eternal carbon
its actually called sawdust but i just inferred from what we're calling it
clever wasp
unsure of the actual level number rn
eternal carbon
watch my oob speedrun
it takes 13 seconds to get to the exit using riveter and xbow
as far as oob strategies go its one of the easier ones to learn
clever wasp
care to link it ?
eternal carbon
eternal carbon
yeah it's easy to clip through if you haven't experienced the feel for where exactly you can start the xbow shots
but after maybe like 15-20 attempts it should become rather consistent
at least it was for me
clever wasp
I'm still not consistent on E2M7 so it might take longer for me
eternal carbon
imo neobabel is a rough one to get good at for speedy
clever wasp
that and escher
at least Neobabel I have a rough idea of what I'm doing wrong
Escher I don't even know where tf I should aim
or where I should stand for that matter
eternal carbon
for escher i just get in the back left corner and line up my aim just above the text on the wall and just slightly left past the corner
eternal carbon
eschers always been a fun one for me heh
it was the first level i sat down and speedran until i had a sub 1 minute time
thin sphinx
you can OOB on e1m1 bin theory but its not really useful
fast wigeon
is there anyway to kill an enemy with a sword without gibbing them
vale oar
i guess no
mild ginkgo
go experiment and find out
vale oar
using its reflecting ability lol
fast wigeon
i have been experimenting and it seems you cant
was gonna see if you could launch a dude into the air with the sword then juggle the corpse with pistols dmc style
mild chasm
If you ask questions to developers about strats and boundary breaks and other such things to help your speedrun, does that count as a tool assisted speedrun?
clever wasp
no
Leon patches OOBs if you tell him about em tho
I see why, in terms of... presentation
but for speedruns
it is not optimal

mild ginkgo

but you arent blocked from using them

im gon keep pestering about that until its added back

mild ginkgo
it will continue to be barely on the radar
fast wigeon
is it not as simple to add as it sounds or smth
quiet rose
Much more important things to do than worry about quick melee right now
fast wigeon
i use it
mild ginkgo
do you, though?
fast wigeon
i avoid picking up the sword now since the patch
fast wigeon
alright
mild ginkgo
itll get done, im sure
but i think youd rather have ep3 than the four times you use quick melee in the game
quiet rose
^
mild ginkgo
maybe im wrong
quiet rose
Maybe they just dont want ep 3.....
fast wigeon
its more than 4 but yes
quiet rose
I guess cancel ep 3 for this one niche fix
mild ginkgo
if youre going out of the way to use it sure
fast wigeon
like the quick melee with sickles is basically a parry button
its super useful for quickly reflecting shit with one button press
it adds a lot to combat i feel
mild ginkgo
it would if there was a reason to do it
unfortunately theres no style meter in dusk
but that sounds like a cool mod
fast wigeon
its a p good strat against the homing dudes
but other enemies yea its just for the style
mild ginkgo
i mean even against the homing dudes the time is better spent bhopping and blasting em away
but i can see the want for it
it will definitely be addressed at some point
hopefully fixed for the full release
"fixed"
changed
fast wigeon
i dont mind when it gets added cos obviously ep3 takes priority, just wanted to make sure its on the list
mild ginkgo
the forum thread was quite enough to do that :P
fast wigeon
wasnt sure if it was tho cos i only got a reply from dave that seemed to misunderstand the question

Some of those purple health bonus crystals that drop from enemies end up clipped into the ground where I cant get them

So I know I'm late to the party but I just got the chance to give the new patch a go. Really like the UI changes. Was kinda sceptical when I saw that you made changes to the Forkmaiden sounds, but I really like them. Props to Vampirica. Have only been able to hear one aggro sound (SINNER) in its entirety so far though, as the other one has been cut off by the FM's attack every time it played. BTW: Is E3MS2 just a shitpost in the patchnotes following up on the Discord meme or is it an actual meme secret level?
clever wasp
so far it's shitposting

It would be cool for Duke Bros to have textures different from common mages
https://imgur.com/a/seXxfVt Like this incredible visual presentation shows
Took me the better part of 5 minutes to do that, so pls no harsh comments, ty
slate edge
Thats pretty nice actually, like the shading.
bright vine
Yeah, this pic is admittedly shit, but the concept itself could be cool
In my opinion
- Duke borthers would feel more boss-like on the visual level
- If they are different colors it would make easier to track which one you are focusing on damaging
slate edge
I like the picture and I agree completely, it`d be a very nice touch and would add some personality to the two, make them look more important.
mild ginkgo
but what if they werent important 🤔
slate edge
reeeeee, the duke brothers have feelings too :c
bright vine
Well, that's not my original point. Important or not is irrelevant, looking fresh is all that matters
They should step up their dressing game
for they are not mere mooks
but elite mooks
bright vine
I assume textures would be moddable after the release?
If they aren't already
I'm not up to speed on that
mild ginkgo
very easily
bright vine
Guess I know what the dev would say to me on that issue then
slate edge
Dusk ep2 big boi mage models that are a lil different
mild ginkgo
i said improves
bright vine
Well gameplay-wise, the only kind of argument I have is the easier tracking of damage distribution among the two
mild ginkgo
yeah i think youre right about that
bright vine
Wait, are big mages different in ep 2? I must've missed it. They seemed to have red tint over the textures and that's about it
mild ginkgo
thats what hes saying
he wants them to be more different
they also have purple smoke
and are physically larger
slate edge
Im just suggesting it because it just looks off to me, the welder and soldier and wendigo fit ep2 but the big mage just looks out of place with it being a reshade.
bright vine
Ah, ok. SO it was a suggestion, not a thing that's already in the game
I had an anneurism for a moment there
slate edge
Thats just me being critical, im not going to be mad if it stays the same, it just could be better looking imo.
bright vine
Yeah, for me it isn't as big of an issue
I would like for the bosses to at least have original textures
as for the big bois, the tint is kind of lazy, I don't know how to explain it
brittle lark
ep2 final boss wasn't very fun to battle
mild ginkgo
yeah, it turns out nobody plays it the way it was designed to be played
which, is to be expected i guess
slate edge
Ep2 boss was kinda cool.
bright vine
It doesn't look like they are wearing red clothes, it feels like they are wearing grey clothes that somebody went over with a transparent red brush in photoshop
That's the best way I can put it in words.
What is the right way to play the boss btw?
The cyberdemon reject?
jade root
There's a super simple fix to the e2 boss but like
We don't want to do it
Takes away player freedom
mild ginkgo
the way youre meant to play it is running around in fear, and the boss constantly teleporting in front of you, making you switch directions and run away
bright vine
On my first playthorugh I accidentally telefragged the guy. It was anti0climactic in one way, but kinda cool and gave me quake 1 vibes
sly path
The fix is QTEs
mild ginkgo
in claustrophobic hallways with a 15 foot tall monster and explosions
but instead people just try to fight him
slate edge
Give him a mean melee attack :D
mild ginkgo
that wont fix any of that though
brittle lark
in my first playthrough i skipped the horses
sly path
Boss battles in 2018? Get that shit outta here gotta have QTEs now.
slate edge
Replace boss with lootboxes
brittle lark
bosses are dlc
slate edge
one will contain the key to ep3
sly path
Pay 10 dollars to advance.
bright vine
Fuck I missed that
mild ginkgo
shhh ignore the sequel that will also have boss battles
sly path
Wolfenstein 2 knows where it's at.
mild ginkgo
look the fact is david doesnt like boss fights,hes made that pretty clear
jade root
he hates them with a raw passion
mild ginkgo
so expecting a really groundbreaking bossfight from him would be silly
i dont think he HATES them
but he definitely hasnt gone on record as being a fan
slate edge
Meh, I liked the ep2 boss, he switched things up a little.
jade root
itll be interesting to see how the ep3 boss will be
bright vine
I just want something like cyberdemon arena from D1. Boss that moves fast and fires fastprojectiles so you can dance around him but also lots of pillars. On the plus side you can hide behind them, on the downside boss' projectiles do splash damage so if it collides with the pillar whiule you're near one, it hurts you
very basic
but satisfying
so far all the boss battles have been in rather small areas
I loved mama tho
Gotta bunnyhop for days
brittle lark
platform pillars will be cool
sly path
Eh just make them use prompts.
jade root
lotta people wined about her arena
sly path
Press E to decapitate Mama.
jade root
"i can fall tho"
"well yeah thats the point"
bright vine
I did fall a couple of times cause I can only keep my eyes on the action or on my footing
but that's the thing tho
sly path
If there's a pit it was probably made to be fallen down.
bright vine
you get time to get familiar with the arena
bunnyhop around it
get into the rhythm
prepare
it is good design
in my book
brittle lark
the lab is an intresting level
mild ginkgo
intoxigator fight has pillars, you just have to los on the pillars
mama you can los on the central pillar
brittle lark
with all the crazy shit that happens with the enviroment
mild ginkgo
nah the first one has pillars
bright vine
yeah, I just want a big huge arena to run around
like in Doom
not one smallish room
final estuary
The experiments were pretty good to fight
bright vine
like the intoxigator doesn't scream boss-room to me
brittle lark
you mean like the big jhon area golem?
mild ginkgo
so, it seems you're more about the arena, than the fight
brittle lark
lot of space there
bright vine
I don't neccessarily understand how do you mean
Those things are interlocked
in my mind
one infuences the flow of another
celest gorge
The main problem with Big John was that he started on one side of the arena.
final estuary
Yeah
celest gorge
It would be nice if he'd show up in the middle of the room.
mild ginkgo
sure but we can acknowldege that LOS on pillars = Los on pillars
theyre both the same thing
celest gorge
Actually, Big John would have been best if his arena had a bunch of twisting hallways.
final estuary
If big john's arena were a little smaller it might be more challenging to fight him
Cause the spread of the weapon is so wide
celest gorge
Can you imagine being hunted in a labrynth by Big John?
mild ginkgo
those are attributes of the arena, despite the fights mechanics matching your request
final estuary
Oh god no
celest gorge
"HAHA, KEEL ME NAO!"
slate edge
big john is good
brittle lark
big salchichon
tidal merlin
Ok so I've been thinking
final estuary
Being hunted by big john in a labyrinth but he's invincible and the level's only objective is to escape
celest gorge
I think he would have to get a speed boost, too.
tidal merlin
In the first level of dusk, why didn't duskdude just disguise as a leatherneck?
It'd make his job easier
bright vine
That's beneath him
celest gorge
What do you think this is, some kind of pansy stealth shooter?
final estuary
Oh yeah speaking of what does duskdude even look like
mild ginkgo
thats a good point
final estuary
I have only seen two pieces of art
jade root
all will be revealed eventually
tidal merlin
I wanted to post my art to represent my idea
bright vine
Why didn't the Doom guy smeared himself in shit and try to blend in with the zombies?
tidal merlin
But I cant post art here cuz no art channel
bright vine
Mostly cause it wouldn't work
but also because he is the motherfucking doom guy
he ain't about that life
final estuary
Yeet
tidal merlin
Is there any way I could post my art?
bright vine
Calling it now
jade root
just post it here
jade root
im not gonna stab your ass over it
bright vine
Dusk dude is actually dudette
tidal merlin
Oh Ill post it on imgur
jade root
upload an image, use the link, itll imbed (i think)
jade root
gg ez
jade root
nice uh
final estuary
Sneak 1
tidal merlin
Thats my watermark
jade root
yeesh
tidal merlin
I only use newgrounds for art.
tidal merlin
I put watermarks on all of my art
jade root
i dont think anyone will steal that lol
tidal merlin
Im mostly worried about art theft
bright vine
OOF
celest gorge
Hey, now my brother's wondering if you'd sponsor a line of DUSK miniatures if they were good enough.
jade root
hey gamers check out my original art
brittle lark
shoot
final estuary
Dusk miniatures would be cool
jade root
30 billion
bright vine
I'd give it 40+
tidal merlin
About 28 hours in MS Paint
bright vine
you work fast kid
final estuary
I want a wendigo on my desk now
tidal merlin
Dusk figures sounds cool
jade root
speaking of minis i still think that leatherneck figurine is on the table?
tidal merlin
But no funko pop figures. Those are crap
bright vine
not all dreams are to be
jade root
itll prolly be a big box thing tho
bright vine
Is there a word filter here that deletes your messages with some words?
I don't know it is possible or not
final estuary
Is there?
brittle lark
let's make big jhon bot
bright vine
Damn, no you will never know my fetish
jade root
our bot auto filters stuff
final estuary
So I guess that means image filter too
bright vine
It has something to do with a roughneck plushie
celest gorge
Wait, what's this about a Leatherneck figurine?
jade root
oof
jade root
dude im rock hard rn
tidal merlin
Big john plushies would be cool
jade root
jesus fuck
brittle lark
some dusk rule34 i bet
final estuary
Didn't see a single piece of dusk r34
jade root
a few people have done that
final estuary
So we're safe for now
jade root
but its not actually on any of the boorus
final estuary
Oh
tidal merlin
Im waiting on duskdude + super crown = duskdudette
brittle lark
with a small community
bright vine
what's a booru?
tidal merlin
Hello my fellow gamer dudes and dudettes
jade root
google it
brittle lark
i don't think we will have dusk p0rn
bright vine
with one hand?
jade root
yeah dude
spare cobalt
what the fuck is going on here
tidal merlin
I still want an april fool's update where you play as one of the enemies to kill an AI duskdude
brittle lark
no
bright vine
I googled dusk rule 34
only found some ep 3screenshots
They're taking infighting to the new level
opaque spindle
ok thats a lil too spicy
bright vine
Darn
spare cobalt
lol
bright vine
not everybody can appreciate the glorious ep 3 screens
delicate violet
I refuse to watch ep3's footage
jade root
you arent missing much
delicate violet
I shall not be spoiled
jade root
its not like david magically started making a good game between ep2 and 3
jade root
yeah but you can jump so
bright vine
sorry for the spoils
jade root
ezpz
spare cobalt
ewgh
spare cobalt
kool kids just do the "skip" anyway
slate edge
Um....lord of cinder is final boss?
bright vine
That would be ridiculous... like uh... like dog carcass-on-wheels ridiculous
They wouldn't do that
now would they
spare cobalt
no good souls after first one (except bloodborne)
spare cobalt
also excluding demon's souls 'cause I never played that
bright vine
I got only one and it ain't even on my finger
slate edge
Havels ring, ring of favour and protection
bright vine
best give up now
spare cobalt
only constant really is tearstone
bright vine
those who say that DS2 is bad have never experienced the joy of anime flipping with the power-stance dual-wielding swords
DS3 slidy sword almost came close
almost
spare cobalt
I just cant really get that far into the game before I just stop playing it
spare cobalt
DS3 usually goes until princes or little before that and then I remember that i'm not having fun
bright vine
Basically I want roll mechanics in dusk
and and option to replace a sword with a zweihander
bright vine
The "rolling on the ground frantically" kind
spare cobalt
shrugs why not just play dark souls? :D
[2:46 AM] Golem: Basically I want roll mechanics in dusk
how is this offtopic
but you can do that crouch dash thing already in dusk so I personally dont see the point 🤷
bright vine
Yeah it was kind of a joke
