Just beat the game today and holy shit it's amazing. The multiplayer is a lot of fun too

#

How viable is my strat of a combo of the pistol and spamming the spin button if I'm close to someone? I think I've killed a few people by spinning the gun.

eternal flame
#

you gotta spin the bar of soap next

lethal fog
#

Can someone tell me whats dusk rq without spoilers

#

Planning to cop

mild ginkgo
#

well

#

its a retro style fps

#

with a cult horror theme

#

has a very played straight opening, but it goes places so stay on for the ride

#

expect tight controls, tight levels, fun shootin

lethal fog
#

Ngl mainly wanted to buy it cuz other games from nb, and heard its really good, wanted to watch a review and they said spoiler alert so

#

Asked here

#

Gonna buy it, thanks

mild ginkgo
#

oh and the music fucking kicks ass

round quail
#

oh wow it does

#

Just want to say that DUSK is my go-to gift to friends and has been since the last chapter dropped. Very good game, everyone I've gifted it to agrees.

amber sparrow
#

Mine too

#

Bought it for a friend and might buy it for others sometime maybe

#

Need moni and friends for that tho

mild ginkgo
#

thanks guys

#

we appreciate it

ripe nest
#

It's an amazing game and I'm having a great time playing it

#

thank you

indigo heron
#

It's the video game

rotund root
#

It's a damn shame that Dusk doesn't get more love than it does
criminally underappreciated

clever nacelle
#

but it's the video game

#

that has to count for something

It’s the first videogame that was ever made

what

dusk is like

#

our most sold game

clever nacelle
#

few more sales never hurt

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

amber sparrow
#

You can buy the games for your friends I guess

slender ledge
#

yeah buy me dusk

#

im your friend now

clever nacelle
#

u tried

slender ledge

#

how do i beat infernal machine help

#

i got to the part where you need a yellow key to progress

#

and also the area where the climbing things spawn

#

but idk where to go next

spare crescent
#

Just look up a walkthrough like anyone else who can't beat a level

clever nacelle
#

yknow how it says "don't shoot the switch?"

#

you gotta

#

it really is that simple, just Simon Viklund - Break The Rules (With Intro) | PAYDAY 2 Soundtrack | Scarface Mansion Heist to continue

split arch
#

the switch in that security booth?

#

by the bathrooms

clever nacelle
#

where the Climbing Thing spawns

split arch
#

oh

#

now i understand

clever nacelle
#

ye

amber sparrow
#

Uhhhh
It's cheaper to buy regular DUSK an then the Intruder upgrade than buying the Intruder edition lol

#

Is this intentional

#

Someone who doesn't realize this pays 80 cents extra for intruder edition

#

Not stonks

muted jolt
#

Maybe it's just a problem with steam conversion rate

amber sparrow
#

I am pretty sure it isn't

#

It's funny

#

Usually purchasing upgraded is cheaper than purchasing base and then upgrading but it's the reverse here

muted jolt
#

Reverse deals

amber sparrow
#

You have to look at the prices and go BigThink to save 80 cents on intruder edition

clever nacelle
#

stonks 📉

#

i now own dusk

#

i had a thought

they're people who think they're a character on every level but physical

odd escarp
#

dusk is the best piece of art i ever saw
i fucking love it
if i was legal i would fucking marry it
the fucking music is sick
the gameplay smooth like a snail on molten butter
the guns ROCK'
the enemies balanced
the fucking spiny animation you do when you reload so fucking satisfying i have to do it 500 times before i shoot
pi/10 would recommend

for music blame the trashmate

I can't wait to buy dusk on switch

#

Dusk with motion control flipping

eternal flame
#

VR dusk would be pretty neat

Vr flips would be intersting

not a problem if they added a brief tunnel vision for the flip

this is the only switch game i am looking forward to lol

sly stirrup
#

I just bought dusk for my friend, he's been really wanting it but low on money

#

I really hope he enjoys it

indigo heron
#

It's also the perfect time to get the bundle with amid evil

#

That's what I did

#

I had to choose between this or the wrath bundle and I chose this one. Totally satisfied.

sly stirrup
#

...I didn't know there was a bundle and now I feel dumb lmao

indigo heron
#

It's like 18 buck for both of them I think

sly stirrup
#

Oh man I paid 20 just for dusk

indigo heron
#

Hahahaha

#

Sure to break it to ya

#

*sorry

sly stirrup
#

It's okay

#

I don't regret it, honestly

indigo heron
#

It's a great game and modding expands it greatly in the future

sly stirrup
#

Definitely, it's hard to place it in my top 5, but it's one of the best games I've personally played

#

The level design and music sell it to me like a perfect marketing team

#

Escher labs, where we confuse the shit out of you

clever nacelle
#

escher labs was i think when my friend really fell in love with the game

#

Not a bad level just funny to sit there and think, "Oh crap how did ...?

yeah

#

david just kinda pulled the idea out of his ass because he didn't want it to be a boring science lab and boy did it work

i loved how mama was introduced

David: "Let me show you its features"
*player dies instantly*

#

Yep, that sums up cowgirls pretty well.

crimson folio
#

So I beat Dusk last night. It's my favorite FPS of the 2010s now

lament girder
#

ye same

#

shame i spoilt it for myself by watching civvie play it a few months ago

crimson folio
#

Did the same, but I'd say watching someone else do it isn't quite the same as doing it yourself. Feels bigger when you do it

spare cobalt
crimson folio
#

The mod scene means we can have even more Dusk 👀 💦

spare cobalt
#

there already is alot of more dusk if you check the site

#

SDK aint exactly done yet but there are new maps

lament girder
#

aye I wanna play some quske

crimson folio
#

Yeee. I waited to beat the campaign before getting any extra maps and mods

lament girder
#

also wonder when the co-op mode will be out

#

that will be mad fun

spare cobalt
#

iirc co-op is releasing when SDK is done

jade root
#

Co-op after the sdk is done

spare cobalt
#

oh after

#

good to know

lament girder
#

cheers boyos

jade root
#

Since co-op will use the sdk

lament girder
#

literally went on a old school fps buy during steam sales, bought wrath aeon of ruin and nightmare reaper

#

and i tried ultrakill was pretty fun

crimson folio
#

I also bought Amid Evil today. There's no sating the classic shooter itch

#

I'm on a mission to collect all classic and classic adjacent shooters. Even the bad ones.

spare cobalt
#

lol good luck

jade root
#

There’s a lot of them

crimson folio
#

I have my eye on Blood next

jade root
#

Half of them not commercially available

crimson folio
#

Yeah, that's a shame :/

spare cobalt
#

enjoy tracking down those boxes

crimson folio
#

Those $400 boxes

jade root
#

Luckily MyAbandonware exists

crimson folio
#

Yeeee

simple pilot
#

Imagine buying boxed amid evil

#

what a waste of money

crimson folio
#

Canned Amid Evil. Like a Monster can size

#

Would you buy Dusk by the bale since it's on a farm?

sonic night
#

What type of LE box WOULD dusk be in?

#

Treasure chest?

#

Chainsaw?

odd escarp
#

what?

crimson folio
#

Gut one of the Resident Evil 4 chainsaw controllers for the Dusk box

odd escarp
#

oh

crimson folio
#

Hello

#

do you guys know if Quake maps in .bsp file is compatible with Dusk?

simple pilot
#

yes you can play Q1 bsp maps

#

also Q3 derivatives

odd escarp
#

hmm

#

interesting

severe torrent
#

just bought, i like

amber sparrow
#

Tip: buying the intruder edition during the sale is actually more expensive than buying the base game and then the intruder upgrade

#

Wait.... maybe not? Maybe it only shows for me like that... But I already have intruder edition so idk why it would

forest glacier
#

dusk is one sale?

amber sparrow
#

Yes it's on sale on steam.

forest glacier
#

oh

#

neat

lament girder
#

@severe torrent have fun dude, i finished it lastnight

#

I also ordered a wendigo baseball shirt from the nb website when the pcgamer show was on, delivery to the uk taking forever

amber sparrow
#

Delivery to here would cost quite a lot I think, it sucks

lament girder
#

think the delivery added on £10 so ye sadly

#

wanted to get the wendigo mouse pad looks so clean

amber sparrow
#

If you have NB fan friends, you could buy crap together and share the shipping cost

#

is there any way to bind 3 to toggle between the lever shotguns and the super shotgun?

woven elm
#

Does it not already do that?

clever nacelle
#

only in the e3 demo

woven elm
#

oh!

#

sorry never mind

eternal widget
#

That'd be cool though

woven elm
#

I think the cycle between 1 lever, dual lever and ssg would be a bit cumbersome

#

unless it was just straight dual lever (if available) and ssg

i have bought dusk

Can i advertise my dusk stream?

Dusk as an FPS is like A hat in time as a Platformer

what does that even mean lol

yes, it can be categorized as that, but it’s one of the best ones, and it’s so much more

come on how long should I wait?

#

ok what dick decided it would be funny to set merzbow language on my first launch?

wind tusk
#

what the fuck is merzbow

round prairie
#

i meant japanese

#

oh and fuck off it crashed

lament girder
#

when i first played i was like how tf do I do the spins in the air, now that I know it makes the game 1000x more fun

lunar adder
#

I found about dusk by reading about wrath aeon of ruin GWcentrallGoodNightBOYE

formal linden
#

when I first found out about the fact that you can do front-flips in the air I didn't believe it so i did one and I instantly felt like throwing up xD

#

never again

amber sparrow
#

It has a funky implementation imo. I have it turned off.

lunar adder
#

i have not played dusk yet 👀

formal linden
#

👀

#

you should

#

it's pretty good

#

first episode is meh IMO, but once Ep 2 & 3 kick in Dusk really begins

lunar adder
#

when I update the mouse, buy a game

formal linden
#

plus, Dusk has mods

#

some are amazing, others are cursed and other are.. god tier

lunar adder
#

don't like playing with mods

formal linden
#

that is fine

#

you dont have to xD

lunar adder
#

but the game is good yes

#

watched trailers

formal linden
#

non are big gameplay changes, its mostly custom maps, re-textures and sound changes

#

for example, my favourite one is Jusk, were all the textures & sounds have been changed to BIGJOHN from the game

lunar adder
#

rtx mod BIGJOHN

formal linden
#

because he is a living legend and a meme

lunar adder
formal linden
#

never heard of it till now xD

#

but that seems more like a meme ngl

lunar adder
#

I usually go through all the games without mods, with mods it can be much longer

formal linden
#

the thing is with Dusk. the way you mod is you need to get the SDK beta branch

#

plus, the only way you can play dusk with mods is through the level select and endless mode

lunar adder
#

I'm waiting for the coop to buy

formal linden
#

(as far as I know)

#

I dont think there will be co-op xD

amber sparrow
#

There will be co-op

formal linden
#

will there?

lunar adder
#

they wrote about it, but I don’t know

amber sparrow
#

They'll start making it after the SDK is done, they said.

#

Something like that.

#

But there will be co-op, that's the point.

formal linden
#

well I'll be damned

#

it might take a while since they got other projects on rn (Ultrakill & GloomWood) but it will get there eventually

#

I'd say get the game even if there is no co-op yet

lunar adder
#

i would like to buy squadron in gog

lament girder
#

its still worth getting now imo, has online and mod support

#

and on sale

formal linden
#

plus, it has a cigar with the "S" symbol the cool kids used to draw when i was in school

lunar adder
#

on sale for steam

amber sparrow
#

You can save about 80 cents on the intruder edition if you buy the base game and the intruder upgrade separately (instead of buying it pre-upgraded)

#

NB uses reverse pricing logic

formal linden
#

indeed

lunar adder
#

anyway, I won’t play yet, I will buy later

formal linden
#

fair enough

indigo heron
#

well it is the video game

#

quick question. so what exactly is SDK. i mean i know it's basically some code rewrite etc, it opens up mods. But i mean,"what" is it? a normal, update of the version of the game? will it be a separate exe? with the release will it have steam workshop integration?

tardy slate
#

It will have workshop and from my understanding it's pretty much a rewrite of a huge part of the game just to support mods
In the menu you have a modding tab, and you just enable the mods there at will

amber sparrow
#

I think localization support is also getting expanded or something

#

It's just going to be better I guess

indigo heron
#

oh great. cause i really like the commodity of just having everything in the menu

wild knot
#

multiplayer anyone? europe

spare cobalt
minor shadow
#

i got sent here by a dev on steam

#

because i have problems with running dusk

#

can someone help me

amber sparrow
#

Windows 8?

minor shadow
#

win 7

#

32 bit

#

when i run the game and select the difficulty the game freezes and i have to close it using task manager

#

and in task manager i see that it takes up like 1.600.000 Ks of memory

#

and there is no memory left

#

but i dont think its supposed to take up that much

#

and the weird thing is that the first time i ran it it worked without problems

mild ginkgo
#

so, the game does pretty much use that amount of ram

#

that said, you CAN try the SDK version of the game

#

which uses significantly less ram

#

but is in alpha, and is very unstable

#

at the main menu, it uses about half as much

#

i wouldnt suggest that as a solution

#

but anyways, does the game eventually start? how long have you left it to load?

#

in some cases, it can take upwards of 5-10 minutes, so that "freezing" may just be it loading

minor shadow
#

like after i select the diff?

#

i let it run once like 30 min

#

it still didnt start

mild ginkgo
#

oh you mean loading a level

minor shadow
#

and i dont think it would because the amount of memory that it takes up doesnt increase

#

yes

#

not in the fake dos

#

i dont have problems there

mild ginkgo
#

which level are you loading into

minor shadow
#

i tried all, none work

mild ginkgo
#

ok so "all" in this case

#

you mean every level in the game, or trying to start the 3 episodes?

minor shadow
#

the 3 episodes and the endless levels

mild ginkgo
#

mind trying something for me? go to level select instead of new episode, and select e1m1 from there

#

and while youre at it

#

if you can

#

add -logfile output_log.txt to your launch options

#

and the game will generate a log txt that you can send me to look at if it does crash

minor shadow
#

this is a video to get a better idea what im talking about cuz i feel i didnt put it into words too well

#

this is the log

mild ginkgo
#

try launching with the launch option -force-glcore

#

seems to be a directx error youre running into

minor shadow
#

also i should mention that the mp works just fine

#

ill try now

#

i get this

mild ginkgo
#

the mp runs on a completely different engine version

woven elm
#

DX11 wasn't included with W7, right?

#

it was added retroactively iirc

#

maybe they need runtime updates

#

or would it just be deferring to DX9 in that case?

#

Also wondering which GPU and GPU driver version

mild ginkgo
#

hes got integrated intel it seems

minor shadow
#

yeah thats true

mild ginkgo
#

we're investigating this now, we appreciate your patience

#

it might take us a bit to come up with what might be causing this, but as always, id suggest updating your drivers, verifying your files, etc etc

minor shadow
#

i already did

#

what i find odd is that the first time i ran the game it worked fine

woven elm
#

what does dxdiag say for you?

minor shadow
woven elm
#

hm, I was hoping it would show the point release

#

because there's a DX11.1 update for Win 7 and server 2008

minor shadow
#

so i should try and update dx11?

minor shadow
#

ill update it and see what happens

woven elm
#

It could be worth checking for an update to your iGPU driver as well,

minor shadow
#

this is one of the first things i thought too and i updated it

#

but it didnt fix it

#

the dx11 update said that the latest version is already installed on my computer

woven elm
#

hm

minor shadow
#

so i guess it isnt this

woven elm
#

Wanna try forcing it into DX9?

minor shadow
#

sure

#

if you tell me how

woven elm
#

I need to dig out the argument

#

Can't remember it off the top of my head

minor shadow
#

like in launch options?

woven elm
#

-force-d3d9

#

yes

mild ginkgo
#

yeah give that a shot, might as well

minor shadow
#

i should remove the force glcore option, right?

mild ginkgo
#

yes

#

that was forcing opengl

woven elm
#

:/

#

oh, it still ran at 11?

mild ginkgo
#

try removing the logfile and just running the dx9 command

minor shadow
#

no, it was with -force-d3d9

#

ill try

mild ginkgo
#

yeah, do what you can, other than that, we're actively looking into it and hopefully we can get back to you with more information later today

#

hopefully directx9 will work

#

but no guarantee

minor shadow
#

no it still crashed

#

also sometimes when it crashes a small unity window pops up with the dusk logo and a loading bar idk what it is i thought i should mention it

#

aight then thank you for taking your time to help me

mild ginkgo
#

hopefully we can resolve this quick

#

sorry youre running into this

#

admittedly, you have a very unique system

woven elm
#

Did the SDK release work out for you earlier?

mild ginkgo
#

sdk might be 64 bit only

woven elm
#

aaah,

mild ginkgo
#

i believe thats the case

woven elm
#

oh, I didn't realise there was a dedicated 32 bit version

#

aw and a cross plat test branch :)

mild ginkgo
#

yeah we have a 32 bit branch just for people with older pcs

minor shadow
#

thats true too, my latop is an old shitty one

#

but again, the first time i ran it it worked fine so idk

woven elm
#

Did you run it the first time without specifying the 32 bit branch? 🤔

#

(can it automatically pick suitable branches for you like that?)

minor shadow
#

no, before i launched it the first time i opted into the 32 bit version

woven elm
#

I see, right

mild ginkgo
#

hmm

#

have you restarted your pc at all between then and now?

minor shadow
#

yes

#

i tried that, updating drivers, reinstalling, verifying files and deleting every single file (like the save files) that dudsk has in docs and appdata

#

and removing every registry entry regarding it

mild ginkgo
#

did you disable the cloud saves as well?

minor shadow
#

yes

mild ginkgo
#

man, real weird

#

im curious how you got the game to run the first time

minor shadow
#

ik, cuz i played it and it was a lot of fun

#

idk that bothers me too

mild ginkgo
#

we'll do everything we can to figure it out

minor shadow
#

thank you for helping me

#

do amid evil or maximum action have a 32 bit option cuz im thinking about getting one of those since dusk doesnt work?

graceful wing
#

64 bit only

minor shadow
#

oh ok

#

thx

crimson folio
#

just finished dusk, best game

mild ginkgo
#

glad you enjoyed!

crimson folio
#

which song plays after you beat Jakob and walk towards the red light? Is that on the OST?

slow harness
#

yes

amber sparrow
#

It isn't.

slow harness
#

wait no

sleek cape
#

Andrew should release a compilation of leftovers that didn't show up on the OST release.

amber sparrow
#

If you install the SDK, it's Dusk\SDK\mnt\local\dusk\music\e3m10_fakeout.ogg

#

Though that folder is a bit messy and E2M3 ambiance is missing, and maybe so do some other things

#

It's a janky folder

sleek cape
#

There are a good number of ambient tracks that deserve their own album.

crimson folio
#

yeah the ambient tracks in dusk are worthy of an album

amber sparrow
#

There could be a release that's just the audio of someone playing through the game without sound effects lol

crimson folio
#

that one in particular

amber sparrow
#

Which one? Into the Thresher's?

sleek cape
#

@amber sparrow If only there was a separate SFX volume control...

amber sparrow
#

I think you could replace the sounds with silence with an SDK mod

#

I wanted to do it once but I haven't

crimson folio
#

dont have the sdk version but from the normal steam one i found the 2016 demo

amber sparrow
#

You can opt into the SDK beta if you go to the betas tab in DUSK's properties in the steam library

crimson folio
#

and pit.exe, is this like a really early version of dusk?

#

might do yeah

amber sparrow
#

It's a game David made like 15 9 years ago or something

#

Unrelated to DUSK, although I believe it was made around the time David came up with the idea of DUSK

crimson folio
#

oh right

#

its really cool that all this is just in the game files though

amber sparrow
#

Then he went to study music performance or something

#

And then went on to make games again I guess

crimson folio
#

nice

jade root
#

Yeah Pit was just a lil thing David made a few years back

crimson folio
#

its pretty fun ukno

amber sparrow
#

Wasn't it many years back

crimson folio
#

it says 2011, re-released in 2013

jade root
#

What dusk was originally gonna he was something zonkers

#

And not like dusk at all

amber sparrow
#

It's funny AF tho so I haven't edited it out yet...

#

I knew one of the infos had to be wrong but I thought it was the "2011" part and not the "14 years old" part

void anchor
#

Wait how old is Szymanski now

amber sparrow
#

Maybe someone confused him with Johnny somehow?

#

David is 30, Johnny is 24 I think. (And there's a third brother called Evan inbetween (yes i am a massive nerd))

void anchor
#

That would still be wrong then lmao

crimson folio
#

uh does anyone know how to get dusk to open on my main monitor

#

and not my secondary

#

its been fine before but for some reason its just decided to open on the wrong side

jade root
#

Was what dusk was gonna be

crimson folio
#

fixed it by moving the window and making it fullscreen again lol

#

damn i wanna play that

void anchor
#

That sounds like the greatest shit game ever

amber sparrow
#

Was what dusk was gonna be
loooooooooooooooooooooool

void anchor
#

I like that he needs to say "I'm completely serious about this"

#

That sounds like a made-up game Jerma would make for a bit

amber sparrow
#

I kinda envied David because I thought he really was 14 when he made Pit

#

And I'm here as 19 and I haven't done anything yet p much

jade root
#

I don’t think he was 14 when he made that

void anchor
#

He wasn't, the wiki is just wrong

amber sparrow
#

Yes

jade root
#

Since he’s like

#

30 now

amber sparrow
#

I just assumed the 2011 to be wrong and not the 14

jade root
#

And Pit was made in 2014

amber sparrow
#

That page is like 50% incorrect btw

jade root
#

Then fix it, nerd

#

Don’t be like our old wiki master

amber sparrow
#

Yeah but I found it funny

jade root
#

Who was an actual douchebag

amber sparrow
#

I'm tempted to just remove the page

#

The wiki is a mess and I have little editing experience so I kinda have to spend a while figuring out how to do something whenever I want to edit

#

In some parts it's the page styling itself that's a bit unpleasant, and that's something I cannot do anything for now, and wouldn't bother anyone by asking for some sort of a permission to edit it because I barely know page styling

#

At least DUSK doesn't have a whole ton of info associated with it, unlike something like an RPG

#

So that's kinda manageable

#

Short story, no inventory items, simple enemies, simple weapons

void anchor
#

There is monster HP and damage

#

But i think the wiki would really benefit from map stats and secret locations

amber sparrow
#

Yes, it's not like Minecraft where you need to organize like a a hundred times the information, and Minecraft might not even be the most complex game ever

#

DUSK is pretty simple

#

I added the infoboxes to the enemy and weapon pages, and reorganized / updated some other pages

balmy sluice
#

The wiki was very over detailed while just ep1 was out.

#

Then 2 and 3 dropped and no one felt like adding that much info 2 more times

amber sparrow
#

The infoboxes are super lazy here because I don't know about template inheritance and stuff, but it's probably not a big problem because I doubt this game would ever need more than a handful of infobox types

#

It's janky but I think it's better than having no infoboxes and having to read through a bunch of text to find out how much health an enemy has

#

It's actually just one infobox type lol

#

For weapons and enemies

#

I might tweak them a bit sometime but I'm kind of happy with them in their current state

#

They get the job done

balmy sluice
#

Something you did?

amber sparrow
#

Yeah

#

Oh I thought I had deletion rights

#

damn

balmy sluice
#

What needs yeeted?

amber sparrow
#

Pit page, but I'm looking through pages

#

There might be other stuff that's sorta junk

balmy sluice
#

I could delete for you if I remember when I get home.

amber sparrow
#

There are pages that aren't redirects but are used for redirecting

quartz bough
#

uhh

balmy sluice
#

Oh yeah. It's not efficient or clean. It was just a bunch of us throwing stuff together lol.

quartz bough
#

so im on my 5th playthrough of dusk

#

and i accidentally telefragged the guardian

#

and i actually wanted to fight it

humble dagger
#

@quartz bough You pulled a Civvie, ey?

quartz bough
#

did he accidentally do that

#

i saw him do it in his dusk video but i think that was on purpose

humble dagger
#

He did it intentionally.

amber sparrow
#

You can reload a save I guess or select the level again from the menu

quartz bough
#

eh i'll just go back through the level select

#

once i get through episode 3 i might do a sword only playthrough

#

not sickle only

#

im not that good at the game

humble dagger
#

Don't think you can sword the final boss to death tho

quartz bough
#

probably not

#

i'll use other weapons when its absolutely needed i think the final boss is the only instance where that happens though

humble dagger
#

That and Jacob, perhaps.

quartz bough
#

are you not able to reflect his shots?

#

i know getting close to him is tough but the stab on the sword does a lot of damage

wooden cape
#

So is this where I go if im having problems with dusk?

quartz bough
#

yea

wooden cape
#

oh sweet

#

well... im getting really bad fps on it 😦

#

and idk why

quartz bough
#

pc specs?

wooden cape
#

GTX 1070
AMD 8350
24 Gbs of DDR3 RAM
Windows 8.1

quartz bough
#

hmm

#

where are the frame drops happening

wooden cape
#

when I start the 2nd level is when it goes below 60

quartz bough
#

are you playing with bloom on? it was added as a joke and it'll just decrease your fps

wooden cape
#

I dont think I am

#

Im going to go look

quartz bough
#

try in low spec mode?

amber sparrow
#

might be the OS?

quartz bough
#

sorry im not a very huge help when it comes to this sort of thing

wooden cape
#

ya bloom is off

#

its ok

#

low spec doesnt help either 😦

quartz bough
#

then it might be an OS issue

wooden cape
#

idk cause Amid Evil runs at a solid 100+ fps at ultra

amber sparrow
#

yeah probably unity and win 8.1 not liking each other

wooden cape
#

Thats strange

void anchor
#

Windows 8 just hates videogames

wooden cape
#

I wonder if I can force the game to run in openGL

#

hell I just want the game to run above 60 xD

#

I dont even care if its not at 144 now

amber sparrow
#

I recently realized DUSK runs at around 50 FPS for me but I don't notice that because everything ever runs like crap for me

void anchor
#

Yup

#

Like I can't even run amid evil on medium at 60

amber sparrow
#

I probably couldn't run it at 30

wooden cape
#

rip

void anchor
#

Funny thing, on stream this morning, Oshry was reading some dusk reviews

#

And one guy gave a negative review saying "the game doesn't even run at 144fps for me, shit optimization!" Or something of the sort

#

Was pretty funny

vague egret
#

it does sound like a system issue of some sort. the performance complaints we get from players with systems like yours are still in the triple digits in the framerate department

wooden cape
#

its so strange

lunar adder
vague egret
#

some things i would check...

  1. background processes. if you got something running that isnt critical to running games, try turning it off. might see a difference.

  2. GPU accelerated apps. stuff like chrome or even discord can cause hitching with acceleration enabled. especially on multi-monitor setups. that issue hits all sorts of games

wooden cape
#

I dont see anything that isnt normaly on in my background processes

#

I dont have a muti monitor setup so I should be ok

#

chrome is not on hmmm

vague egret
#

i would also check your overclocks if you're running any. some games dont play nice with them

void anchor
#

Check your task manager

wooden cape
#

My task manager is always open xD

void anchor
#

Sometimes some Windows processes can be taking a lot of cpu

wooden cape
#

CPU running at 9% when on on discord

vague egret
#

thats normal

#

perhaps refresh your GPU drivers or update if its been a while

#

windows as well

graceful wing
#

Specs?

wooden cape
#

I just updated them 2 days go do we should be ok

graceful wing
#

Oh NVM was above

wooden cape
#

GTX 1070
AMD 8350
24 Gbs of DDR3 RAM
Windows 8.1

#

oh well

#

xD

graceful wing
#

Reinstall the game to another drive. This kinda sounds like a storage issue

#

Preferably an ssd

wooden cape
#

shit all I got is an HDD

#

I mean I could put it on a thumbdrive

void anchor
#

Wait, I think you're literally the guy Oshry saw the forum post on stream

graceful wing
#

Nah that would be considerably worse

void anchor
#

He was looking at the forums for dusk lol

graceful wing
#

Try to eliminate as many background processes as you can

wooden cape
#

Hey I didnt say it was shit

#

xD

void anchor
#

"24 gigs of ram is a weird number" he said

wooden cape
#

ik xD

graceful wing
#

Including discord and web browsers

wooden cape
#

no web browsers are open let me turn off discord and try it

vague egret
#

GPU acceleration on discord does nothing except waste resources

wooden cape
#

I closed discord and everything else I had and it still ran the same ;-;

#

I had that turn off already

#

@void anchor is that stream archived I want to see it xD

void anchor
#

I think it is

#

Was just this morning in the new blood twitch channel

wooden cape
#

ok thxs

#

Just because he commented on my review I gave the game a thumbs up

haughty viper
#

anyone else planning on getting dusk again for the switch to support newblood

urban stump
#

Hold up, does Dusk use the fuckin' old Minecraft water splash sound when you enter water?

void anchor
#

Don't have a switch so no lol

sonic night
#

I think it's a stock sound effect?

bleak karma
#

Y'all know what to do

void anchor
#

Controllers for fps games are something I'll never understand

bleak karma
#

Oh my sweet summer child, have you've seen Woolie playing Apex Legends?

wet kettle
#

Lightgun Dusk when

sonic night
#

Can't wait for him to meet BIK JOHN

bleak karma
#

Bic

#

Burly Johnathan, yes quite

haughty viper
#

There are some fps made with controllers in mind but others not so much

graceful wing
#

using a controller for an fps is the same as using a KB/M for a driving game

#

you just don't do it

amber sparrow
#

Playing soccer in scuba gear

#

oh but if someone plays Dark Souls on the god damn Donkey Kong bongos, we're all applauding

Well, he found a bug, so who's unworthy now, HUH????

lunar adder

When release sdk BigThink

indigo heron

Yes when

Do it now

jade root

It is out tho

amber sparrow
lunar adder

but coop will be after the release of sdk BIGJOHN

Yea SDK is under the betas tab on steam, they probably want to fully set up before coop to allow for proper development of maps that may utilized co op

#

@void anchor ep 1 is just re4 but quake

void anchor
#

Holy shit you're right

twilit quest
#

thats not a bad thing though

void anchor
#

Absolutely not

#

You know

twilit quest
#

i played through re4 on the wii so im an expert

void anchor
#

A thing that i really think is symbolic of dusk and newblood in general

#

Is that, when you go through dusk and the first episode

#

You think it's just a really well designed and tightly controlled dusk clone with blood inspirations and the such

#

But when you actually go through the entire game, you realize it's something different, something more

twilit quest
#

it gets so fucky wucky

#

also btw in the uh, sky labs whatever

#

babel labs?

void anchor
#

Something greater that has it's own identity, not copying the old, but building on what made them great and creating for itself

#

Escher labs

twilit quest
#

no the ones in the sky

void anchor
#

Idk, been some time

twilit quest
#

rip

#

i remember i worked really fucking hard to get underneath the map because i thought there would be something cool

#

by strafe hopping off the edge and using the wall climbing powerup

#

and i just get stuck in the wall

void anchor
#

And there was just a message by Dave telling you to fuck off

#

Damn

#

I know the ghost town map has that

twilit quest
#

agh i cant post images yet

#

damn this server and its leveling system

#

:|

void anchor
#

reeeeeee

twilit quest
#

anyway, yeah it was somewhere that you werent meant to go at all

#

like, no easter eggs or anything, i just got stuck in the wall

#

it was big sad

void anchor
#

Needed to reload a save?

twilit quest
#

yeah

#

well i was under the map

#

so i would have had to do that anyway

cloud quiver
#

you can post image links though

void anchor
#

uhhh

#

doesn't seem to work

#

"This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. "

twilit quest

ayooo

twilit quest

wait what

#

ok thats strange

void anchor
#

lmao it's a thumbnail

twilit quest
#

yeah from google images lol

cloud quiver
#

discord isn't perfect

twilit quest
#

im not booting up dusk to get one image

void anchor
#

discord isn't perfect
Understatemnt

twilit quest
#

usually a server where you cant post images doesnt let you embed them either

#

but eh its fine, i wont do anything bad

#

maybe

sonic night
#

Re4 on Wii is best version of re4 don't you FUGGIN DARE @ ME

twilit quest
#

ok so

#

its actually not a bad port iirc

#

might be nostalgia talking though

void anchor
#

Aiming with the wii mote actually sounds dope

#

ANd from what i've read, actually worked great

twilit quest
#

movement wasnt the worst either

#

and the game didnt run like crap

void anchor
#

Tbh, gyro controls for fps games should be normalized on controllers

twilit quest
#

btw re4 ran like crap on my laptop which can play doom 2016

#

go figure

void anchor
#

That generation of games and their pc ports are a nightmare

twilit quest
#

lmao

sonic night
#

COD is fun on the wii.

twilit quest
#

its so funny how a great game can have such a garbage port

#

i played cod uh

#

3?

#

on the wii? it was cod ww2

sonic night
#

Cod3 is the worst wii cod

void anchor
#

Man

#

I recently bought mirror's edge on steam

twilit quest
#

ok i played the worst cod then ; 3;

#

nice

sonic night
#

Black Ops and MW3 are what I'm referring to

void anchor
#

Game doesn't even have pc keybind icons

sonic night
#

On the wii

twilit quest
#

never played those

void anchor
#

It uses fucking xbox 360 pad icons

twilit quest
#

oof sarm

void anchor
#

When i'm using keyboard

twilit quest
#

just play around it

sonic night
#

One thing that I don't get about those games is that they were made on a PC

void anchor
#

I mean, still mirror's edge, great game

#

Just shit port

sonic night
#

So even if they're designed for consoles, there should have at some point been some PC keybinds for debugging purposes

twilit quest
#

they were made for xbox hardware, so afaik they would like, design it around using a console

#

its not like the dev team needs to implement keyboard icons for themselves

#

it would have been wasted space if they werent thinking about a pc port

#

(although it would have been very little space but eh?)

#

i could rant for hours about dev stupidity

sonic night
#

No but the function of "we need to test this function but it'll take too long to compile all of this and stick it in the dev kit for something so small" would warrant some PC testing

twilit quest
#

yeah true

#

i remember microsoft changed some of the icons for halo ports iirc

#

to xbone controllers

void anchor
#

Ok

#

Can i just say

#

Xbox one is the dumbest name ever

sonic night
#

Microsoft is always a step forward, a step sideways, and a faceplant backwards

#

Xbox is better than "Direct-X Box"

void anchor
#

Is that seriously a name they considered

sonic night
#

No

twilit quest
#

i really, really hate modern naming conventions

#

hmm yes battlefield 4

sonic night
#

But that's what it is

twilit quest
#

what should be the next one

#

battlefield 1?

#

sure why not

void anchor
#

I mean, PS4 PS5 works

twilit quest
#

then after that, battlefield 5 instead of 2

#

like, what?

void anchor
#

But yeah

#

DOOM

sonic night
#

Xbox was made to show off Direct-X for PCs iirc

twilit quest
#

at least doom eternal isnt doom 2

void anchor
#

Now we need to call it DOOM 2016

twilit quest
#

which is fine imo

#

iirc they even put 2016 on the box

sonic night
#

I wanted them to not coward out and just call Doom Eternal Doom 2 Hell on Earth

twilit quest
#

but theres stuff like halloween 2018

#

where its just halloween iirc

sonic night
#

Not on the box but the name in storefronts like xbl and psn store say 2016

void anchor
#

I mean yeah

#

When they also sell the classic dooms

#

Needs to be a difference

sonic night
#

Actually no not on Xbox

twilit quest
#

"would you like doom, doom, or doom"

sonic night
#

Because the original doom is "Doom (XBOX ARCADE)"

void anchor
#

That includes an extra episode too if I'm not wrong

sonic night
#

And the new port is just "DOOM ™️"

twilit quest
#

just for you we included an extra wad file

#

have at it

sonic night
#

The xbox arcade version has Thy Flesh Consumed and multiplayer

twilit quest
#

oh nice

sonic night
#

Do the new doom ports have multiplayer yet

void anchor
#

Tbh out of everything bethesda's done

sonic night
#

I know they have sigil and such

#

But have they added multiplayer back?

void anchor
#

The fact the ports have wad support is good

cloud quiver
#

Dusk needs a arcade mode

twilit quest
#

i thought it had endless?

sonic night
#

Mod one ^_^

void anchor
#

What you mean?

sonic night
#

Scripting is coming soon

void anchor
#

HDusk when

sonic night
#

Depends on how horny the people are

#

We're getting an HULTRAKILL first, that much I know

void anchor
#

I got a theory as to why people are so horny for that game

#

The combat is so good, it gives you a boner

sonic night
#

A massive inside joke

#

Because I see nothing sexual with the robot design

void anchor
#

But since you can't fuck the concept of combat

#

You want to fuck something else

#

It's science trust me dude

sonic night
#

It's an interesting theory but I don't think that's the case

twilit quest
#

i mean

#

the robot design is aesthetically pleasing

#

dusk has it's own art style that is very blocky and jaggy

amber sparrow
#

its

twilit quest
#

so none of the character models are very pleasing to look at

#

oh shit ur right

#

im going to cry now

void anchor
#

Tbh i think that's how games should do it

#

Look at tf2

twilit quest
#

ultrakill's protagonist isnt very jaggy and aggressive

void anchor
#

It's artstyle still holds up

twilit quest
#

its because tf2 doesnt look like shit

amber sparrow
#

I'm ultra triggered now

twilit quest
#

it's unique

void anchor
#

I mean, ultrakill has those sweet ps1 graphics

#

Complete with texture warping

twilit quest
#

ok none of the enemies are nice to look at

#

but v1 isnt dusk dude if you know what i mean

void anchor
#

I don't think we even see dusk dude in-game outside of the ending right?

#

How do i do spoilers in discord again

twilit quest
#

|

#

two of those on either side

void anchor
#

ah

twilit quest
#

its the uh

void anchor
#

||pee pee poo poo||

twilit quest
#

yheah that

#

wow

#

this isnt an automated message

sonic night
#

Duskdude doesn't have an actual model iirc

#

You probably saw fabinos edit of Gordon Freeman

twilit quest
#

the endscreen has an image of dusk dude though

#

just vibing

void anchor
#

I don't remember seeing some man cake with duskdude so i don't think it was fabino

sonic night
#

It's probably just 2D art and not a model

void anchor
#

yeah

jade root
#

there isnt a model of duskdude, yeah

#

i dont trust you nerds with a duskdude model

twilit quest
#

wow

#

rood

#

whats the worst that could happen

#

the duskdude model would have like, 8 polygons

jade root
#

Fartnite SFM ft Duskdude

sonic night
#

We'll make our own DUSKDUDE model

void anchor
#

But if i don't have a duskdude model, what else would i use this inflation machine for

sonic night
#

With blackjack and hookers!

twilit quest
#

sarm

#

sarm no

sonic night
#

Sarm stop right fuckin now

void anchor
#

There's already inflation images of V1 btw

#

Since the world isn't bad enough

twilit quest
#

ok what

jade root
#

stop

#

now

sonic night
#

YOU BACK THE FUCK UP RIGHT NOW

twilit quest
#

metal dont

jade root
#

enough with your v1 fetishes

#

keep it off server

void anchor
#

Aight aight

twilit quest
#

at least v1 looks better than dusk dude

#

oh what was that survey nb did about who would win in a fight

#

i was thinking that in this hypothetical fight, v1 would win cause haha punch buckshot go explodey

#

but can v1 parry a hitscan weapon

void anchor
#

I mean, we don't know yet

sonic night
#

He just gave ivan a black beard, a hat, a cigar and a trenchie

void anchor
#

I think the Amid Evil champion would win tbh

twilit quest
#

axe

void anchor
#

Because of the arcaernum

#

or however you spell it

twilit quest
#

ok i havent played amid evil

sonic night
#

Duskdude has nargle

twilit quest
#

didnt he kill a god?

#

or she i cant remember

#

ok amid evil i could see having a lot of art

sonic night
#

Amid evil protag can probably take nargle alone but not dusk dude

twilit quest
#

the bright colors and lack of really gross looking cult enemies makes interesting character designs

#

at least the champion killed the antagonist

void anchor
#

Something that's kinda funny

#

Only 47.3% of people who own dusk have completed episode 1

#

If the steam achievements are to be believed

twilit quest
#

oof

#

was it in any bundles?

void anchor
#

It's in a bundle with amid evil

twilit quest
#

makes sense

void anchor
#

Which, extra fun fact

#

Only 90% of people who have amid evil have even launched it

twilit quest
#

lmao

#

that reminds me

#

i should buy amid evil

void anchor
#

87,1%*

lament girder
#

ye same lol

void anchor
#

Since there's an achievement for quitting the game

#

Oh yeah you really should

twilit quest
#

why is there an achievement for that

void anchor
#

Idk, devs being funny

twilit quest
#

haha funny devs

void anchor
#

But it does help seeing how many people buy games and never play them

#

Why do that

#

Why

#

Why buy a game on steam, for real money, and never even launch it

lament girder
#

if you buy tons of games

void anchor
#

Are you getting findommed by Gabe Newell or something

lament girder
#

its kinda a slog to go through if you forget

#

before refunds i was gutted if i started a game up and it didnt run

#

just sat there

eternal widget
#

DUSK is good too, great action, great horror, just great

lament girder
#

I honestly dunno why i held off it for so long, finished it the other day and its just amazing

#

shows that old school stuff can still hold up

void anchor
#

I guess

#

But dusk isn't just old school

#

It's something more than that

lament girder
#

well its episode based, got a classic look to it, lets you hold all weapons, fast movement, has dope fish

#

pretty old school to me

void anchor
#

I guess

loud turtle
#

Just finished E1 of DUSK after owning it for 6 months 😔

void anchor
#

lmao why

amber sparrow
#

I didn't finish Episode One until like 9 months after I bought the game

void anchor
#

Do you people really have back logs that big

amber sparrow
#

Then finished the other two episodes in a few days

twilit quest
#

Episode One was sort of boring in my opinion.

But the other two episodes were amazing.

I'd rate E1 7/10, E2 10/10 and E3 11/10

7 is good imo

#

Gotcha

Like 5/10 is ok?
