were you intoxicated tho?

anyone know if Switch version's still a ways off? super stoked & probably gonna double dip anyway but was just curious
mild ermine
@graceful wing by the way will you add some events for duskworld as hurricane on endless cathedral ?
crimson folio
Thats also a thing. Does this update fixed intoxigator achivement?
delicate sail
Dave just said on twitter that it is still gonna be quite some time until switch
crimson folio
Yes I was intoxicated
graceful wing
maybe? balancing events of that scale would be quite challenging but who know what'll happen
and yea switch version doesn't have a date right now
our top priority is to get the pc version feature complete

undecided. we have no numerical goal for achievements set
keep dropping us achievement suggestions and there's a chance they'll get implemented if they're creative

Hmmmmm, will the SDK come with a built-in modelling tool?

picking up items from infighting enemies when you are dead should no longer break the game
Damn, that's one specific case. Who does that even happen to?

I want to get a friend to actually play this but he's a fucking asshole and wont pay for games if you need to download it from a client
mild ginkgo
well, its on our roadmap
placid pebble
poor guy.
mild ginkgo
probably a few months
queen coral
good to know that it's at least on the roadmap
graceful wing
There's only so much we can do
vague egret
sounds like your friend is either hopelessly paranoid or stuck in the 1990's. i recommend professional help for both
queen coral
He's one of these Linux purists
Steam is renting and absolute evil even if the release is DRM-less
queen coral
(ignoring the fact that valve did a fuckton for Linux gaming over the last few years)
graceful wing
It's like you gotta jump through 5 hoops to even get to chat with them
Yea pro Linux users should be praising valve
queen coral
valve single-handedly turned Linux from being ungameable to a viable, low effort necessary platform
graceful wing
They're the only people that care
queen coral
install ubuntu and steam, and granted you're running AMD you're good to go
mild ginkgo
pretty much yeah
queen coral
this has never been the case before
graceful wing
Yup
mild ginkgo
its unlikely we would have a linux client right now if valve didnt make it very simple
graceful wing
Valve is going hard pro Linux with proton
queen coral
also fucking runtime man
graceful wing
And the Linux folks act like this is bad
queen coral
no more of that "but muh arch release man help pls"
graceful wing
Really boggles my mind
graceful wing
If you're savvy enough to use arch as a daily driver you're going to know how to dual boot
No one's making a dedicated arch port
graceful wing
Compile that shit yourself lol
queen coral
you just have to work on getting the steam runtime to cooperate
and it's usually something automated by some magical dude that was patient enough to create the installer bash script for you
valve goes the extra fucking mile by backrolling GPU dev. and other related tasks (DXVK, etc) and nobody seems to even take that into account
it's really frustrating because I know that this stupid attitude is going to block the fuck outta Linux adoption even more (and there's more than enough roadblocks already)
/rant off
graceful wing
yeah
queen coral
got it outta my chest oof
graceful wing
like i'm pro linux for sure
but i'm not pro linux elitism
those people do nothing but harm the linux community
placid pebble
Yeah
Ussing Lubutu in my old laptop, i hate too they want all free source
is like, is good, but can not work on EVERYTHING
queen coral
tbh as I see it, if you're paying for it you should be able to peek and poke
but it's not really viable
I don't agree with Libre software, but open-source is positive in the long term
rapid island
Ideally, we would live in a system where programmers release their code for free because they don't need to make a living on it
queen coral
I don't think it's fair to expect it to be free tho, nothing is
development costs a fuckton of time
big fan of Carmack and the gang of early iD members, DooM isn't free, but code is out t here, tools for peeking and prodding are out there, and the reflect of that in the industry is unmesureable
faint belfry
He said it chief
rapid island
Yep, I'm GPL'ing my game a while after it's done
royal herald
Carmack himself said that you can get DOOM for free and he doesn't mind
queen coral
(that also extends to yall and the Dusk SDK too, mad props)
it's a different context tho, it was in regards of piracy and whatnot
royal herald
He said he didn't care since people always ended up messaging him saying that they felt bad for pirating it and loved the game enough to pay for it later
faint belfry
that
royal herald
Carmack is my developer idol tbh
queen coral
it's still brave af to even claim that publicly tho
placid pebble
He also say that because he is not getting a money for any Doom buyed on steam
that goes to Betheda
but nvm, buyed Doom 2 on steam cause like to share screenshots
royal herald
That's for DOOM 2016. Bethesda doesn't own 1993 DOOM

any patch stuff?

It's like that iMac advert with Muse, but more metal and less emo wank.
placid pebble
yes, new achivements, linux and mac, 32 bit, and fixed a rare bug
acoustic oriole
the new achievements are live (look at patch notes on Steam forum)
royal herald
@placid pebble zenimax media gets rights, iD software's parent company
Bethesda is also owned by zenimax media I believe, at least now.
I imagine though that iD software gets paid for every purchase on steam of the 1993 DOOM.
thorn patrol
Zenimax is weird. Sometimes they fuck things up, sometimes Beth does good.
rapid island
So it doesn't really make sense for Carmack to sanction Doom piracy, since he works for Facebook
royal herald
Bethesda had no stake in that game so I can't see them getting money for it.
night blaze
Whats the diff from staying on the stable and testing branch of Linux/Mac, will I see fixes to it faster? Because I also played online just fine with people on the stable version right, so, should I just stay on testing or stable?
royal herald
@graceful wing Half Life MMOD also had the issue where you could grab objects while dead. They had a fix for it, is it still unsolved?
vague egret
@night blaze just go back to release branch. the beta branch is no longer needed
solid lynx
lemme rephrase that sounded bad
dim plank
did i just watch someone die or-- oh
solid lynx
whenever im playing the game runs fine without lag on my mac, but when i click out to use discord or anything else it lags
like discord lags i can barely scroll
but game doesnt
wierd
night blaze
I was just running it with Discord and browser open here on Linux
solid lynx
do you get the same lag
night blaze
nope, fine here
Even online
Did you check what is running or maybe using the CPU too much?
Or maybe your HD is failing and it stutters?
solid lynx
yeah the game runs completely fine, it just lags discord and chrome and anything else i try to use but when i click back into the game its fine
night blaze
Only with Dusk?
solid lynx
yeah
night blaze
Try it with another game on this session that you are
solid lynx
i play in windowed so i can use discord etc
night blaze
just launch another game with the same setup to check
Might be a software using too much of what it needs
solid lynx
yeah i mean i dont play too many games on my mac but i always play left 4 dead 2 in windowed and when i use discord on that etc its fine
like no lag in discord or anyting
also you're using the regular branch right
not the beta or 32 bit
obv not 32 bit since my mac is 64 but
night blaze
yeah regular
night blaze
one thing you could do to check, run steam from the terminal along with the game, any weird errors it shows up
solid lynx
ok
i mean it isnt a massive deal considering the game starts fast anyways but
it would be nice to switch to discord and it not take 5 seconds to load when im scrolling
lol
night blaze
yeah but you might know something about your system that is holding you back on performance π
These days with malwares all around it's always good to check rogue processes

DUSK FORTRESS CLASSIC
if i ever get into dusk mapping i'll probably try to make a mod that's just
an original but still DUSK based story
placid pebble
You play as this dude
dim plank
an expanded universe would be fun honestly
DUSK EXPANSION PACKS
PLAY AS MAGE?? OPPOSING FORCE
vale oar
play as a rat
dim plank
it'd probably be a lot, lot more quake inspired
what with hopping dimensions and all
you're already getting that with DuskWorld Ratmaps
i want to try and port a ratmap from half life into dusk lmao
that'd be great
dusk, but you're the size of a rat
duskmare is the easy mode
accessible is hard
i do really want a big john expansion pack, with cheesy oneliners and all
placid pebble
Play as Andrew Dawndude
placid pebble
He first enter in the nameless city and try to escape in the farms of Dusk
and a Big Mage brothers kill him and just crowsbow his feets on that post
dim plank
dave would probably have a field day with a big john expansion pack
comes with a new weapon
definitely-not-the-displacement-cannon
placid pebble
i will pay dave 10 V-bucks if he say "Im here to kick ass and chew bubble gum, and im out of ass"
dim plank
"YOU'VE BEEN..... HARVESTED" after he guns down a wheat field full of mages
instead of metal it'll be cheesy 80's synthy stuff
placid pebble
XDD
dim plank
ha, 80's synth remixes of the DUSK soundtrack
balmy sluice
I'd listen to it
dim plank
me too, man
me too.
BIG JOHN SHOULD'VE MADE A COMEBACK DURING THE FINAL GAUNTLET
you think you're done
you walk out
placid pebble
HAHA! YOU CAN'T KILL ME
dim plank
and it's just fucking big john. again.
balmy sluice
The game would have bad ratings then
balmy sluice
desert aspen
Honestly if anything
I'd imagine a Dusk expansion sorta being like a prequel
with Jakob proving his worthiness
dim plank
oh that'd be neat
royal herald
Would that just be Dusk except Jakob before being corrupted?
He probably plays on accessible difficulty
desert aspen
honestly Jakob strikes me as someone who probably was a true devout follower of the cult
royal herald
Yeah because he was corrupted by Nylaralrallraralra
-theth... nylarlalrhlarlhrlaltheth
duskdude probably seems like that too
vale oar
nyarlathoboob
vale oar
H.P.Lovecraft
desert aspen
Alcohol
vale oar
H
royal herald
lol
desert aspen
then afterwards he'd go on racist tirades
royal herald
what story is nylaylarlalra from anyways? Lovecraft has a LOT of ficticious gods and deities.
does anyone read the names of them or just reckognize them and then gloss over anyways?
I can't remember any of the names
desert aspen
it first appeared in The Crawling Chaos
or actually I think it might have actually been called Nyarlathotep
spare cobalt
cant remember myself but the character does appear in the novels
spare cobalt
I do but I cant remember details such as novel names π
desert aspen
I should read more Lovecraft
desert aspen
I heard The Shadow Over Innsmouth was a great book
spare cobalt
except for such as shadow over innsmouth etc
shadow over innsmouth is good sure but my personal favourite is at the mountains of madness
that was intense
desert aspen
If you want some tips for Lovecraft works and names
jade root
MoM is my fave too
spare cobalt
it's so eerie and looms even more than the other novels
desert aspen
a lot of stories and locales in the lovecraft worlds are actually map names in Quake Champions
spare cobalt
yup
desert aspen
Like Vale of Pnath
spare cobalt
ruins of sarnath
spare cobalt
quake roots are in lovecraft
desert aspen
thank Sandy Petersen for that
royal herald
iD software developed quake and DOOM with inspiration from their DND sessions, so I guess we can think Lovecraft for DUSK too
desert aspen
dude practically breathed Lovecraft
spare cobalt
if we are out thanking games for lovecraftian themes I have to mention Bloodborne
desert aspen
It's why The Elder World is the craziest and most abstract of areas in Quake
spare cobalt
but dusk has alot of lovecraft
desert aspen
it was almost all Petersen
thorn patrol
On that note
When the SDK comes out, I want to make a Western mod for DUSK, but am not sure who the final boss should be, as Lovecraftian gods just seems...Not quite fitting.
slow arrow
Yay glad to see the new achievement patch is out. Time to 100% the achievements again!
mild ginkgo
glad to see our plan of making you come back and play again is working
slow arrow
Aaaaand finished them in about 10 min, lol
mild ginkgo
yeah, none of them were particularly challenging
but we have more planned, dont you worry
slow arrow
I thought the telefrag one would cause grief, but nailed it first try, lol
also no I won't pick a new nickname! lol
royal herald
Change your nickname to Ayth just not the weird characters
slow arrow
Nah, too lazy.
desert aspen
Alright I don't know if I'm doing anything wrong
but I can't get the Intoxigator achievement
mild ginkgo
there i tried
royal herald
Testing branch still a mandatory thing for it to work or nah
slow arrow
Did you damage him before you got drunk?
royal herald
I'm going to try to get the achievements real quick
royal herald
holding every single soap is going to be a nightmare
desert aspen
shame you can't use the soap on Jakob
royal herald
perhaps a bigger pain than getting logitech to work
logitech installed on my new win 10 and it wouldn't detect my ancient g300 mouse so I tried reinstalling but you can't install old versions overtop of new ones
desert aspen
should I pound a couple brewskies while doing this irl
royal herald
Is dopefish in Dusk?
desert aspen
yeah
royal herald
Is that the final secret achievement?
desert aspen
he's in e1m4
royal herald
rip me trying to find secrets
desert aspen
that's as far as I'll go
royal herald
better not be like the basketball bullcrap on e1m2
desert aspen
happy hunting
slow arrow
@royal herald I made a steam guide for all the secret achievements.
If you require them.
The hardest thing to do in DUSK is finding the soap. I think I missed 3 on my playthrough without a guide.
desert aspen
the soap is hidden really well in e1m10 and e2m10
slow arrow
Yeah I think those were the ones I missed my first time, lol
mild ginkgo
well they kinda needed to be
desert aspen
agreed
desert aspen
no actually how DARE david not make everything deliberately easy in this game
I'm gonna write an angry blogpost about this now
slow arrow
Yeah, why can't we have a difficulty where the game plays itself!
royal herald
so 10 then

I'm a gaming journalist after all! I can't beat the tutorial. lol

and game journos complained the music was lacking
jagged ferry
"hi, i'm a gaming journalist, i can't beat the tutorial on adaptable, would you mind making the game easier so i can give it a 3/10? thanks"
royal herald
I think my first playthrough of DUSK I accidentally telefragged the guardian and then was really dissapointed that I didn't get to fight him
jagged ferry
mfw a literally fucking pigeon is smarter then dean
desert aspen

queen coral
It's these people that rate your vydia

telefragging this SOB is gonna be a lot harder than I thought

acoustic agate

royal herald
episode one has a ton of speedrun strats
jesus
extra keys, riveter on level 2, secret achievement areas giving you a huge speed boost etc
got the intoxigated achievement
elder haven
as someone who doesn't speedrun but think it's cool, i think it's really awesome how accessible the game is for speedrunners
you can do some crazy shit, and you don't have to break the game too much to do it
royal herald
I'm sure you can break the game just as easy though
desert aspen
As cool as it is
I think the mega secret in e1m2 is a bit too early
and I always felt that the riveter should have been introduced in episode 2 or something
jaunty meteor
+1 to both of those
Never been a fan of anything where the only rebuttal someone can give for how badly it breaks the game is "well just don't take advantage of it"
royal herald
yeah I really wouldn't have found it unless I actively looked for it
I couldn't even figure out how to get over top of the cornfield, for example, since I didn't think to move props, and had tried jumping over it before.
Then you have to grab the basketball, find the basket, reach the near end of the level and resist the urge to go back
all kinds of steps to get it to work
desert aspen
I had Half-Life intuition so stacking boxes to get up to places was just natural

is there a way to import saves from one computer to another

Tried to run the new Dusk for Mac, but it runs so slowly I can't even use the menu... seems like it's trying to render in software. Took me 5 min just to quit. Works fine in Windows with no problems.
slate edge
What are your system specs?
mild ginkgo
- what kind of mac are you on
- PLEASE ensure you are running the game at an appropriate resolution
short tundra
15" macbook pro, 2.5 i7, R9 370X
mild ginkgo
macs have disgustingly high resolution panels
mild ginkgo
and simply put, probably need to lower the resolution
also what avain said
might be a problem switching to the dedicated gpu
that should be running the game just fine
short tundra
I have an external display attached so it has to use the dedicated gpu
I'll see if i can get to the video options!
mild ginkgo
remember there is a config .ini
short tundra
oh perfect
mild ginkgo
so you can set your game resolution there
short tundra
Thanks!
graceful wing
oh man macbooks and external displays can get a bit weird from my personal experience
does the game also lag on the mac's native monitor?
short tundra
I'll try that next
Tried editing the plist xres and yres to 1920x1080, but it didnt seem to have any effect. Not sure what Screenmanager Resolution with is, but it's set to 9999
graceful wing
a good amount of macbooks run at 16:10 so i'd go for those resolutions instead
depends on what you have really
short tundra
Funny thing is the game launches in some sort of 4:3 res
short tundra
So using the internal display, it was still very slow but just fast enough I could carefully get into the menus and change the resolution. Once I changed it to anything else, it works fine!
Now the Screenmanager width and height in the plist is the res that I set. Previously it was 9,999 D:
graceful wing
i wonder if the game was actually trying to upscale to that resolution hehe
short tundra
It would seem so π
short tundra
I appreciate the help! Any time I can increase my Dusk intake is a good day
scarlet perch
Is 1.3 the newest version? It reset all of my settings and none of the new achievements unlock. I'm on Windows.
graceful wing
try verifying the game files. it's possible something might have broken during the update
scarlet perch
I'll try again on an achievement, but that seems to have reset my controls yet again.
graceful wing
hmm.. that was probably steam downloading an older cloud sync
scarlet perch
Still nothing.
Tried killing the Chomper when the update dropped, and I just tried killing Intoxigator while intoxicated.
thorn patrol
@gleaming berry Hullo sir, would it be within your power to add a 'hold crouch' button to the key configs? I prefer it to toggle crouch, much obliged if you could but I understand if you have other priorities.
scarlet perch
There's an option to turn off toggle crouch.
thorn patrol
Ah, good.
@gleaming berry Disregard, a concerned citizen helped me find what I sought!
slate edge
Dont @ staff too much.
delicate sail
And the cheevo visual
daring solstice
I see an update OwO are new cheevos obtainable already?
mild ginkgo
yes
graceful wing
graceful wing
it was a pretty rare occurrence but it messed up the game hard hehe
daring solstice
how can you pick up item after dying? does it happen when you fall down on it?
slate edge
That US date system messes with my head
mild ginkgo
yeah basically that
lets say you died, and two enemies were fighting eachother while standing on your corpse
and one of them happens to drop a health pickup
you could actually resurrect from death and ti would be totally busted
night blaze
Is the defaults settings for Dusk and Duskworld different? I notice no blur, no x2 etc
It is because it's a better setting for multiplayer right?
I find it strangely good too. I can't play single player like that, but for multiplayer it makes TOTAL sense.
open sable
Hey guys, I'm new around here. Bought DUSK yesterday since it came out for Linux and I've been having a blast π
Just wanted to mention a very slight bug, not sure if it also happens on Windows, but the tutorial prompts show the default keymappings instead of whatever you have it set to (So for example if you set USE to F, when you die it'll still say "Press E to live again"). It's not a problem at all for me since I already know my binds, but I could see it maybe confusing other people.
PS: Thank you so much for adding a "Disable Camera Animations" option π
PSPS: Strafe jumping in this game feels great
eternal carbon
yeah i had noticed that thing about binds just the other day when i was grinding e1m1 attempts
im sure it wouldnt be too hard to set up that text to be dynamic
graceful wing
yeah we'll probably look into that eventually
it's fairly low priority for the time being however
jolly mirage
You know. Thanks to dusk 32 bit mode. You may be able to put the game on a win98 VM and play it truly authentically.
prisma halo
Doubt it
jolly mirage
I'll test it later
prisma halo
It probably wouldn't even run on XP
I don't think Unity is compiled in a pre-Vista friendly way anymore
prisma halo
Yeah
fair mirage
also isn't dix11 the renderer
prisma halo
Modern C/C++ compilers require you to manually opt-in to building an XP (and prior) compatible executable
fair mirage
aka, win7+ only
jolly mirage
Hmm
prisma halo
That's assuming the executable even runs on XP
slate edge
Honestly anyone playing on an X86 system in 2019 is a tad behind to say the least. Though I can understand for some its not a matter of choice.
jolly mirage
Good for legacy apps
jolly mirage
But there are multiple options for x64
graceful wing
get an office pc for like 20 bucks and throw a cheap gpu in there
boom
64bit gaming pc
jolly mirage
I think there is an app that restores 16 bit comparability mode to x64 Windows 10
Damn autocorrect
Don't care anymore
slate edge
Yeah, win7 is great for legacy support....most of the time for me at least.
jolly mirage
Anyway at least there are options on win10
I got most of my ancient dated crap to run with external software
Also is it just me or does compatibility mode on win10 work better than it has before
prisma halo
I think there is an app that restores 16 bit comparability mode to x64 Windows 10
It's a feature you can enable in Win10
graceful wing
idk almost never used it
graceful wing
might be restricted to pro only
prisma halo
There are many reasons for that
jolly mirage
When I did you can only enable it on 32 bit
prisma halo
Yeah
slate edge
DosBox is horrible
jolly mirage
Yeah
prisma halo
DOSBox is great
jolly mirage
DosBox seemed to handle all of the stuff I threw at it so I say it's good
prisma halo
There's always PCem if you don't like DOSBox
But it's not geared for your average user
graceful wing
there's absolutely nothing wrong w dosbox
slate edge
It works fine, but its not the best way to play old games if you get me. Like the steam release of one unit whole blood. As standalone software, its amazing.
prisma halo
Like the steam release of one unit whole blood
That's moreso an issue of it being poorly configured
jolly mirage
I use DosBox for. Well dos games and VMware for everything else
prisma halo
the Steam release of Blood is like
an old version of the GOG release
just slapped on there
prisma halo
pretty sure there's even still the GOG installer icons in the Steam game folder
anyway, Blood is like, one of the most intensive games you can throw at DOSBox
That's like saying a mid-range GPU is garbage because it can't run Doom 2016 on ultra
graceful wing
yea if a game is acting wonky under dosbox it's just configured incorrectly
slate edge
As standalone software, Dosbox is amazing though, but fuck the steam release of blood.
jolly mirage
Although I wish I could allow VMware to use my gpu
slate edge
I wish devs/publishers patched their old shit before unloading it on steam.
slate edge
Okay, im sorry for going off topic, should move this to gaming or switch back to Dusk talk.
jolly mirage
Ok
cloud quiver
kind of a bummer that the new update resets all preferences like controls and such(or maybe that's just on my end)
jolly mirage
It does that every major update
cloud quiver
ah
mild ginkgo
it does that only in updates where we update the player options
we added new options, so configs needed to be reset
if there are no new options in the update, they will not be reset
open sable
By the way - does anyone know which settings are the ones that influence performance the most on DUSK?
Because the game runs perfectly for me if I'm playing it normally, but as soon as I try to record something with OBS, I get pretty bad frame drops. So I wanna try and see if reducing those help a bit (I'd like to stream it if possible)
Or maybe it's something wrong with my recording settings π€
Oh well I'll tinker around with it
I'll just try recording low spec mode and see how that goes
^ Answerefd my own question. Nah, doesn't really make a difference even if I turn them off - I guess Unity games are a bit too heavy for my PC to record smoothly π I'll just dial down the recording resolution
graceful wing
turn down the bitrate and put your cpu preset to something faster
open sable
π thanks, I'll try that

@graceful wing turning up encoding from Veryfast to Superfast did the trick. thanks man

aint gonna lie to you chief the wendigos in the ruins the first time scared the fuckin shit out of me
elder haven
E2M2 was that point when i knew the game wasn't fucking around
E2M4 cemented that fact
and then E2M5 was just....picture of a chef kissing his fingers
placid pebble
And then E2M6 was the unexpected
elder haven
E2M6 was a wonderful surprise
the big open arena and near-constant enemy spawns reminded me a lot of Painkiller, which I loved

we added new options, so configs needed to be reset
if there are no new options in the update, they will not be reset```
thorn trout
@daring solstice are you on Mac?
thorn trout
Hmm ok yeah settings should not have reset
I dunno TBH it's a bit of a crapshoot whether Steam will decide that needs redownloaded or not.
Since it's not cloud synced it's a bit difficult to make sure it doesnt decide to get overwritten. Best thing at the moment is to keep a backup copy somewhere just in case
thorn trout
Ahh that too
mild ginkgo
because it SHOULD have been reset yesterday when we launched the update
but not today, when we hotfixed mac
thorn trout
Yeah
daring solstice
idk, it was last week I think
mild ginkgo
yeah ok
so the reason is that we added a new controller binding option
so we had to push a new config
not every update will do that
but we have a severe problem adding options :P
every time we add a new user setting, youll have to get a new config to add the option to it
we COULD dynamically detect and write the options.....but its a lot of work :P
thorn trout
Yup basically
daring solstice
seems reasonable to me π
I have 1 issue though, rebinding quickload key reads the input on the binding menu
and thus making me load the game accidentally
daring solstice
thanks! you guys are on point today π

@thorn trout thank you so much for making dusk and also releasing it on linux, I'm fangirling to my friends about you
here's some of the footage i recorded earlier after Avain's suggested fix

welp i just managed to get all of the achievements for Dusk... AGAIN
uneven pier
hardest one of the new achievements was telefrag the Guardian because i miss read it as ''talefrag'' so i was trying to kill him from behind with an explosive
royal herald
how did telegraph make you think you needed to get behind him
uneven pier
because i miss read it as talefrag

first thing I'm gonna upload on my channel is a speedrun of the first episode of Dusk
seriously, i dunno of @thorn trout or any of the devs are gonna see this, but thank y'all so much! thank you for your passion and your creativity and your talent and for putting all towards what is one of the best freaking fps i've ever played. these past few years have been Golden Years for us 90s fps fans, what with the new Doom, Ion Maiden, and getting to see Dusk grow from early access into the awesome finished product it is now! frag on new bloods!
mild ginkgo
oh he'll see it
we'll all see it
thanks for playing man, glad you can connect with it π
pale ibex
I have immediately bought the game for my girlfriend now that it's released on the true gamer platform
thank you mr.dusk
plucky mauve
i was so drunk yet intoxigator achievement didn't proc π¦
funniest part of it was trying to grab a bar of soap while wasted
in the end it feels easier to just use weapons
open sable
π€ 
Holy shit I think I just found a cool expoit in E2M5
I wonder if it's old news though
When you grab the slo-mo powerup, if you tap W you can essentially move through the rest of the level fast while all enemies are stuck in slow motion, so you can just walk past all of them, and the climbing powerup seems to be tied to the slo-mo, so that one also lasts a long time
as long as you tap W instead of holding it down, enemies stay in slo-mo instead of real time
open sable
could you do that in superhot? at least afaik even if you tap W in it, enemies go real time
open sable
hmm

You can shrink/increase the screensize/HUD with = and -
its a pro strat along for those 2 precious frames
livid hemlock
I knew about the shrink increase, it gave me nostalgia moments from my pentium ii
royal herald
I always accidentally hit +/- when switching to my pistols in duskworld
vale wasp
It needs to say "buy a 486" at the smallest screen size
royal herald
486's surprise me that they made that effort.
The whole thing is to conserve memory and what not
and well I guess it wasn't on 486's that you'd see that but 386's suffer even more from funny remarks like that. I'm glad devs had the time to put little things like that in though
livid hemlock
Is that Civvie the youtuber?
spiral peak
nah probably just a massive coincidence
solid lynx
whats the purpose of the green gems that cause green mist
found one in out of bounds area lol
broke it
green mist

If it is (and just in case) I love the dude vΓdeos, especially the blood ones. Nice to see people tackle good classics and still waiting for a full dusk set of videos
The crystals of madness
Throw them at enemies
They go mad and start killing each others
livid hemlock
It's specially cool in levels with loads of enemies where you can see them cleaning house for you xD
Yeah they still try to kill you anyway
solid lynx
they sometimes infight massively like there was a giant area forgot which map but
there were like 30 enemies
and they probably killed off like
20 of em
and i watched
lol
royal herald
it also works against larger enemies, like chomper, for achievements even
Ooh, achievement idea. Get a soldier to slay a cowgirl
Something like that
elder haven
you kidding man? i can barely slay a cowgirl as is
but enough about my sex life rimshot

and then john was a zombie

mild ginkgo
yes thats actually civvie

alrighty, Dusk with a PS4 controller plays smooth as butter
sand ferry
hey what are the other urls for this game? ai alredy know waster.money and blood3.com
hybrid condor
i know notfortnite.com and quakebutspooky.com besides blood3
sand ferry
@hybrid condor i expect notcod.com lol
mild ginkgo
im am truly amazed you got a ps4 controller working with the game
do you have like 389 iq?
sand ferry
@mild ginkgo it's not rocket science, just get scptoolkit and intall the drivers
vague egret
never had much luck with scp. i have a hori FC4 i used for killer instinct, which hates anything but xbox controllers. scp never worked in that game.
interesting
mild ginkgo
ah ok you didnt use our native binding system
hybrid condor
i only plugged the controller and bam it worked .w. literally was plug and play for me
then in steam i configured for the gyroscope to do small mouse movement for precission shots
aaaaaaaaand there it goes
the main menus on dusk dont work well tho, gotta click with mouse on the options, but otherwise it works pretty damn well
royal herald
I can't believe y'all are using controllers on DUSK
that's like playing with arrow keys
oldschoolcool
woeful sonnet
Nah because arrow keys whilst a terrible control scheme is not heresy
jagged ferry
this is true, actually ^
woeful sonnet
A more proper comparison would be an n64 controller

God just imagining dusk being played with an n64 controller is physically hurting me

Nah dude the Sega Saturn or non dual shock PS1 controller.

now you're playing with power

imagine playing dusk on a checker board
open sable
It's pretty crazy how different the game is with intruder mode
was watching someone play it on the normal mode and it's insane how trivial some fights and sections can end up being if you carry over everything
like they basically always have topped off ammo on everything and can just delete anything with whatever weapon
the balance for 'pistol starts' in these maps is π

Is NB up for a Steam Award this year?
ivory adder
Maybe
molten peak
and the best pee pee poo poo publisher award goes to...
molten peak
lol tru
hybrid condor
steam awards suck
ivory adder
they're worse then any awards show
hybrid condor
a friend of mine only voted PUBG as goty just "to compete with Fortnite" like no other reason was valid
hybrid condor
what i hate of most steam users its that if you dont make everything plug and play, click the exe and play with no tutorials, and you make a shitty game exactly for them, they bash with negative reviews
"this game is from 1897 and it doesnt work on my windows 10 when i click play. this game is ass"
ivory adder
Yup and give attention to the nominees that didn;t win
molten peak
lmao I always check google whenever I get older games
ivory adder
Fucking Ace combat got review bombed to heck cuz muh joystick
molten peak
Can't believe people don't do that
hybrid condor
game not working
"ok lets google or see what could be the problem and how to fix it"
boom done, that's what i always have done
molten peak
Indeedio
hybrid condor
i kinda hate the reply "get a better pc" because sometimes there can be like a graphic glitch and you computer is from the nasa and people just reply "your pc is shit, buy a new one" like iif it were that easy to buy one lol computers are free it seems
ivory adder
And I can see why other store don't have them
But At time it can be true for some folks who expect their really old rig to run games like RE 2 remake
but yea gaming as a hobby ain't cheap
molten peak
I always just go to Youtube to check if my GPU can handle a game that it might have trouble with
hybrid condor
yea, there's a balance
i mean i ran Doom 2016 in a hecking Intel HD 4600
molten peak
Benchmark videos are abundant there, there's no excuse
hybrid condor
you gotta see a specific benchmark tho
hybrid condor
sometimes you search how a game works on a certain gpu and they have like an ssd, a i9, and 800GB RAM, and the gpu is a 1050 basic which was overclocked and modded lol
ivory adder
Ye
molten peak
Yeah that could be a problem. But I haven't encountered anything like that yet myself. ANd I usually note what other hardware they have
And I always avoid videos that say they overclock since I don't do that
hybrid condor
same
i used to watch lots of benchmark vids when i only had the internal intel gpu
i kinda dont bother much now since i got a decent 1060 6gb, most stuff works fine. i only watch benchmarks for games that came out very recently and look like they need dual 2080ti rtx lol
i love how well dusk work on low end computers so far
molten peak
Yeah, I'm gonna be upgrading by July hopefully. 1060 included
Should make picking games way easier
hybrid condor
3gb or 6gb one?
molten peak
6gb
hybrid condor
nice~
molten peak
So many hot games are coming out this year, the upgrade NEEDS to happen lol
hybrid condor
i only need to upgrade my ram but yeah so many gud games coming
molten peak
My PC is a budget machine that was past its prime even when I got it back in 2015
The only half decent piece of hardware in it is my 750ti
So I'm doin the woiks
CPU, GPU, PSU, mobo, ram
hybrid condor
nice~
im hyped to return to my desktop pc soon, because the sales made me buy tons of games that they dont work at all in my laptop, specially games like tarkov lol
i wanna play unfortunate spacemen again too lol
gotta experience that dusk in 4k again
wraith plank
Just finished on Cero Miedo. I have not had this much fun in a shooter in a long time.
Now to try it with intruder mode on 
sand ferry
@wraith plank duskmare, intruder mode mode, sickles only
also it's just me or the new update made the flashlight better?
wraith plank
Duskmare looks a little nuts
Cero Miedo with intruder looks like a fun challenge now that I know where some secrets are
open sable
@wraith plank Like I was saying earlier, it's kinda crazy how different the game is with intruder mode on. You'rre guaranteed to have a good time, I beat it last night myself on Cero Miedo Intruder for my first playthrough π
You'll find that encounters that were previously trivial will now have you coming up with more thinking on your feet with the tools available to you in a certain level
instead of deleting everything that looks at you funny with the rivet gun

ANY reviews tbh

yes, input is good.

hmm I just realized something
has dusk been rated by the esrb/pegi yet
I wonder if they'd even give it an M rating
vale wasp
yeah they would there's blood, gore, and cigar smoking
desert aspen
eh T games these days can get away with that
unless Szymanski or Oshry deliberately ask the esrb to give them an M rating I don't think they themselves will rate it that
vale wasp
The cowgirl has metal boobs
sly path
I'd assume it'd be given like, an R16 at most in New Zealand.
slate edge
Rated M for Manly!
sly path
For all the ESRB's faults it's rating system is kinda logical I guess.
quiet rose
Since it's coming to Switch, it'll need a ESRB rating anyways iirc
desert aspen
@sly path due to the fact that it's an american ratings boards it's inherently skewed against things of sexual nature
but ESRB ratings for the most part are logical
sly path
Eh at least it doesn't have 20 bazzillion possible ratings like the New Zealand ratings board.
desert aspen
yeah there's like 6 ratings I think
sly path
And only like, 5 of those 20 bazzillion possible ratings are used because why not.
desert aspen
with AO being a death sentence for games looking to be on consoles
slate edge
Just dont try to be manhunt 2 and you`re fine.
sly path
Here in New Zealand there's like 5 or 6 commonly used ratings these days, 7 if you count R18 but that's becoming much rarer.
sly path
Apparently the camera angle of a game is a factor in it's rating here.
desert aspen
man I love how in the Postal remaster they take the piss on Hatred
by typing in the phrase "not important" during the game it makes everything black and white
sand ferry
postal never fails to disappoint in the edgy departament
sand ferry
postal 1 - edgy, postal 2 - edgelord
sly path
Postal 2 is banned here but Postal 3 isn't apparently, but let's not get into the 7? Games that are banned here.
sand ferry
postal 3 - garbage
sly path
New Zealand.
Australia bans way more games than us.
There's like conflicting info on the legal status of Postal 3 in New Zealand.
slate edge
If you take postal 2 seriously, well, I dunno what to tell you. Postal 3 is so bad RWS disown it.
desert aspen
man what is it with Oceania and being worse than the germans with censorship
sly path
Like I said there's only like 7 games that have been banned here.
sand ferry
@slate edge well they don't need to disown it since they didn't even make it lol
sly path
A significant chunk of them being visual novels.
slate edge
Its their intellectual property.
sly path
I wonder when David will disown DUSK and then make it open source π€
desert aspen
Man it's an injustice that the government of New Zealand would ban such classics
sly path
I'm joking of course.
sand ferry
@sly path probably when he gets high on cocaine
desert aspen
oh I guess there's a filter in place on this server
sly path
Yeah there is.
quiet rose
Yup.
sly path
Careful what you say around these parts, and don't test the filter.
quiet rose
Yup. Circumventing it will also cause issues
desert aspen
ok let's just say I typed out the name of a game from Japan
that involves gameplay around sexual coersion

Yeah I assumed.
