Hell, civvie even went into czech history a bit out of respect and that rocks

crimson folio
#

Like, he's legit. Like, when he did Alpha Prime, I didn't even know it was from my country, let alone being written by Ondřej Neff.
Then him talking about the Husák kiss, oh beautiful.

And yes, my first name is also Ondřej (Andrew)

Though Hrot does have some references i obviously don't get

Probably czech stuff

Gorilla boss best boss

crimson folio
#

Yeah, most of it is Czech stuff, it's basically a fanservice of us Czechs.

fleet sand
#

It's totally alien for me, and that's great. Get to learn about a culture while blowing away monsters.

crimson folio
#

But that gorilla came out of nowhere, even I don't know what that was supposed to reference, or it was just put there for shock value.

#

Very clever scare though.

Yeah that for sure

#

Best laugh and fright combo I've ever had.

#

I think the gorilla is just a video game enemy

#

not a specific reference

late hawk
#

Yeah for sure

#

The entire first episode takes place in Prague, mostly the different districts.
Starting with Kosmonautů Metro Station (now called Háje), followed by a market place with a culture house, leading to the Sokol Gymnasium (a gymnastic association that's still going), followed by Palace Of Culture on Gottwaldova Metro (Now its a Congress Centre on Vyšehrad Metro), followed by actual Vyšehrad Cemetery, ending at the Vítkov Mausoleum of Klement Gottwald.

#

The second episode might take place outside of the city, given how it will be all structured after the Hussite era, with the bears, chickens and castles.

late hawk
#

Good info actually

#

Thank

#

Yeah i wonder where next episodes lead, since its czechoslovakia and other tie ins to history

#

Unless we killin more old politicians

crimson folio
#

Well, Gottwald was sort of a left hand to Stalin, a lot of people got killed because of how it was under the USSR control.

#

And he is still cremated in that mausoleum, but people still hate that, even the corpse is starting to decompose.

glad sedge
#

Try to keep the topic based on game stuff. Wandering a bit too close to Rule 1.

crimson folio
#

Sorry, I will not try to stray to those topics.

glad sedge
#

Thank you.

crimson folio
#

As for the future episode... It's possible one of the bosses will be something with Jan Žižka.
I remember how some speculated that the statue in the Mausoleum would be the actual boss, so it wouldn't be surprising, if it actually happened.
Just an entire statue coming to life and trying to run you over with the horse.

The spiders can be turned off. I am also arachnophobic, but I didn't have that much issues with them.
There is a difference between a virtual spider and a real spider that climbs down on your monitor.

When it's on a sale I'm going to snap it from the shelves. The only critique I have with the game are a lot of the guns' shots, though the sound design overall is good. I can ignore those though thanks to the world the game portrays.

unlike most "alphas" it is actually a real alpha

crimson folio

anybody got any hints for the secret achievement?

storm tundra
#

which one

#

idk which one you're talking about so i'll just list hints for all of them:

#
  • there's one in e1m2 involving a certain basketball and hoop
  • there's one in e1m4 involving a series of secret rooms and a certain fish
  • there's one in e2m9 involving a certain teleporter and picture
  • there's one in e3m8 involving a bar of soap and a certain wall
  • and there's one in e1m9 involving going out of bounds

think that's all of them

I like the core movement tech a bit better in quake but Dusk speed feels great.

low compass
#

I think Dusk could be better

#

I don't say it's bad but sometimes I just get bored of it

drowsy needle
#

my problem with dusk are the weapon sounds

#

they sound a bit weak

fleet sand
#

The weapons are amazingly implemented, but are lacking in variety. That and the lack of a setting that let's you hold the jump key to bhop forever are my biggest complaints.

mild ginkgo
upbeat pecan
#

but I think it would work well for a gamepad

fleet sand
#

I'm thinking about Duskworld. Not a minute after playing my thumb starts hurting from all the jumping.

#

As for singleplayer DUSK, yeah it's good as it is.

upbeat pecan
#

I just use rmb to jump

autumn pendant
#

I still use my Space to jump

fleet sand
#

I suppose I needed to do some rebinding eventually.

autumn pendant
#

Tbh, after having many experience in the same thing, I have no problem with it

fleet sand
#

It's like doing a pull up and getting calluses.

#

Eventually, as with you, I'd fell barely anything from it, but you have to do it consistently.

upbeat pecan
#

its just preference. Ive used rmb to jump for a long time. Easier to click over time than press space

#

but there are some drawbacks probably

#

like when you have to hold lmb while keeping your timing going on rmb

fleet sand
#

I'll try it nevertheless. I need to rebind the riveter because my 9 key keeps delaying.

upbeat pecan
#

oh yea, you should get stuff weapons bound off the number row and bound around wasd (or esdf)

fleet sand
#

Indeed. Gotta do it sooner or later, and frag night's coming up.

fleet sand
#

Came across this cheater and realized there was no votekick. Purely have to rely on the host of the server, and in that situation it was an official server. Now I'm worrying that frag night will just be populated with cheaters. Do the devs have anything else to combat cheaters or do the players need to make the servers purely on their own?

autumn pendant
#

Wrong place

fleet sand
#

Nah, I'm not here to report, just here to question if the devs have anything else, or are planning to add votekick.

autumn pendant
#

No no no

#

I meant, I said my thing in the wrong place

fleet sand
#

Eh, no problem.

autumn pendant
#

Also maybe they have something to counter exploiters

fleet sand
#

I think votekick should be an optional thing when setting up a server, while in official servers it should be mandatory. This way the absence of a host doesn't change anything. In an individually-owned server votekick could start a small mess, possibly even leaving the host without players.

#

I'm just crossing my fingers frag night isn't lost to cheaters. I've seen three so far, all of them simply placing their characters out of bounds and firing down on the real players. It's boring, not even clever.

There was this one time I fought someone flying around, and that was fun. A mini boss fight where me and this other guy threw our all against him. I couldn't tell if it was some weird lag or an actual cheat, but it was fun.

olive cloud
mild ginkgo
#

i think its just kick

fleet sand
#

Isn't that just for hosts? I'm thinking about your ordinary player in an official server, suddenly killed by a guy out of bounds.

mild ginkgo
#

i forget tbh

olive cloud
#

btw the cheaters are most likely just high lag players.

fleet sand
#

Nah, this guy was out of the bounds, totally. Only air around him.

olive cloud
#

because noone changes their default password in their cfg file

#

you might be on a streak

#

i don't remember the last time i saw a cheater

mild ginkgo
#

they are real, but yeah its a small community

fleet sand
#

Changed my password in the config just for that. Here however it's an official server, specifically the Moscow official server.

mild ginkgo
#

people stop playing with the people who cheat

fleet sand
#

I saw it was populated and decided to head in.

mild ginkgo
#

gonna get the other servers going again soon here, we had to take them down because the provider switched us to new hardware

#

so hopefully you wont be trapped playing in russia forever lol

olive cloud
#

btw as for spamming space to jump. You gotta treat your keyboard like a gentleman. Simply tap the spacebar instead of spamming or mashing it. You don't have to be percise with the timing because the buffer is very high.

fleet sand
#

Yeah, I've been doing that more often, obtaining my groove.

mild ginkgo
#

autohop should be a thing though, why not

#

anything to make scrollwheel jumpers feel like dumbasses

olive cloud
#

yea it should.

mild ginkgo
#

because they are

olive cloud
#

bruh i hate them

fleet sand
#

Found the guide: Server Hosting 101. rcon kick and rcon ban. Both require the admin login which I assume isn't accessible in official servers.

mild ginkgo
#

yeah

fleet sand
#

Though I never tried, so it beats me.

mild ginkgo
#

youre right, we should have votekick

#

its just something we never really anticipated or planned for

fleet sand
#

Definitely should make votekick optional in player-hosted servers though. Sometimes you just want to be a dictator for a lobby.

olive cloud
#

b- b- balan- balance vestibule 🥺?

mild ginkgo
#

but theres a 1000 other problems with the game we would rather fix

#

one at a time basically

fleet sand
#

Anyway, see you on frag night. Hopefully there won't be any Russian hackers invading that lobby.

#

Although I'll say this, the guy didn't have a Russian name, clean 'Murican. "HotlinePeppers". I think it's just international players like me going over to Moscow official simply because it's the only active server.

olive cloud
#

Hotlinepepsterino?

#

that guy doesn't hack

#

he's legit. It might've been ping after all

fleet sand
#

Must be a similar name. I have a good feeling it wasn't lag. And if it was the case, I'd have a different thing to go on about.

olive cloud
#

i know hotlinepepster and he's definitely not a hacker. Maybe it was a coincidence and someone chose the same or a similar username

low compass

low compass

the idea is good but it needs polish

I hope it gets polished and then gets turned into a standalone free to play

storm tundra
#

i don't think those weapon damage values are accurate

storm tundra
#

regular shotgun fires enough to add up to 100 damage if all connect

#

super shotgun adds up to 400 damage

wise crane
storm tundra
#

seems old so i guess it could have changed since then

wise crane
#

It's true enough anyways

olive cloud
mild chasm
#

They certainly don't

amber sparrow
#

though the only things that are off are shotguns and sword stab

#

shotgun does 75 damage in 5 pellets, SSG does 300 in 20 pellets

#

stab is 225 damage

#

each instance of damage is divided into two halves (both halves rounded up) and is subtracted from health and morale respectively if you have non-zero morale

#

individual pellets count as individual instances

#

probably more info than anyone cares about but whatever

#

anyway a single point of morale can save you from 62 health damage

#

if you get shot with the crossbow. I think that's the highest single-instance damage source that isn't just an instant kill

wise crane
#

Do you know if that would work IRL?

amber sparrow
#

absolutely

amber sparrow
#

so 1 point of morale can save you from up to 112 health damage

#

stronk

#

crossbow shots are definitely more common than sword stabs tho

olive cloud
#

like i could launch a sawblade and delete 20% of your body by shooting a leg of and it technically wouldn't be an instant kill

#

regarding the Irl kill thing that Torii asked

amber sparrow
#

idk how realistic dusk is

#

never touched soap in my life so idk how it works, for example

fleet sand
#

Frag night seems to be unworthy.

I don't think you can go wrong with I can take it or CM for a first play. I did I can take it because its what the game told me to do

there is a type of noclip in this game?

There is no noclip cheat in the main game

But you can noclip in the SDK version

upbeat pecan

the sdk has noclip

Though the SDK campaign is turbojank so I dont recommend it

wallclipping is very picky in the non-sdk version

Theres a spot you can get pushed through a wall by a cart dog

any of the push things. cart dogs, crushers, etc have the ability to push you thru a wall. It's just super rare

is more like bhopping in games like Quake is too tricky

maybe Quake Champs but only for short bursts, I could never get the hang of going around corners without losing momentum

For some reason I can't do bunnyhopping in Quake 1, but every other Quake game and games based on id Tech 1 are no prob.

Also Painkiller has the best bunnyhopping.

mild ginkgo

now keep going

episode 2 and 3

tired marsh

I don't know how they implemented the AI in Wrath, but we are talking about id Tech 2 here lol. A lot of the AI probably had to be made from scratch.

pine nymph
#

well I dont remember ai buggering out like this in Quake 1 and 2

tired marsh

Quake 1 and 2 had rudimentary pathfinding at best.

mild ginkgo

well youll be able to implement custom AI behavior in the sdk

so that will be cool

tired marsh

It's harder to fuck up.

pine nymph
#

in dusk im not too displeased with the enemy behavior in general, its simple but it works for what it is

#

bosses tho, oof

crimson folio

I only played a tiny bit of Wrath, and from how much I've experienced, the pathfinding didn't bug out.

pine nymph

ive had it happen rather often

i got introduced to a new enemie and i couldnt even shoot them because they started in fighting and now im sad

Which enemy?

radiant tree
#

idk the guys that call me heretic but covered in purple

pine nymph
#

in general im not too big on wrath
i feel like unlike amid evil and dusk, the game didnt come together if that makes sense
its made of pieces I generally like: powerful weapons, big levels, varied roster of enemies, etc
but how its all put together feels incohesive

spare cobalt
#

yea not a huge fan

pine nymph
#

levels are really big and plastered with enemies with no real sense of structure, like a more mediocre serious sam

dapper spire
#

i like wrath, but not a big fan of the level design

#

the guns are pretty cool tho

pine nymph
#

the levels themselves feel long and repetitive, sometimes too complex for what they offer in terms of challenges

#

the save system is bizarre, like whats even the point

dapper spire
#

game feels too easy at times

pine nymph
#

the weapons are unbalanced imo

dapper spire
#

super shotgun everything

pine nymph
#

the coachguns alt is useless, the shotgun's alt is too strong, the fangspitter's alt feels kinda pointless, the wretcher is too weak, and the slag cannon is just sorta there

tired marsh
#

The shotgun's alt used to be really powerful and the fangspitter's alt was really useful against those flying head enemies. But then they got nerfed.

pine nymph
#

Dusk's guns are all pretty standard but I still feel like they are all useful

#

theres no real imbalance

dapper spire
#

rip fangspitter’s 300 ammo limit

pine nymph
#

I used the shotgun's alt too much because against bigger enemies all the other weapons felt too weak

dapper spire
#

i never found myself using the shotgun’s alt

crimson folio
#

dusk's arsenal good

pine nymph
#

also theres some peeve I have with the shotgun

#

its the only shotgun in the game and its a double barrel that uses two shells per shot

#

theres no way to use one shell at a time

#

so liek, when you have 100 ammo, you actually have 50

dapper spire
#

yeah why didn’t they have a pump shotgun

radiant tree
#

im loving the game so far but the arsenal just feels like a tweaked doom 2 arsenal

pine nymph
#

games like quake 3 and turok 2 also had only one shotgun which was a double barrel
but it still used one shell

storm tundra
#

what about the regular shotguns

pine nymph

none in Wrath

storm tundra

oh nvm not talking about Dusk

from what I played from the demo, no

but they could’ve improved it since then

it’s got good ideas but they could certainly be executed better

#

it could take quite a few lessons from Dusk

low compass
#

I just want to play a quake like game that isn't dusk

#

I completed quake and it's really good but, being a game of 1996 it's very unpolished

olive cloud
#

with sourceport ofc

mild ginkgo
#

hrot is closer to chasm the rift than quake

#

it doesnt have room-over room, so its a big limitation to the level design

#

and a hallmark of quake is true 3d level design

storm tundra
#

did they fix the godawful reloading from the demo

zealous bluff
#

For the SMG yes

storm tundra
#

ok good

zealous bluff
#

The pistol still reloads

storm tundra
#

that’s a start

#

I also hated how the different weapons outside of secrets dropped randomly

zealous bluff
#

It’s fine normally but sucks on blank slate mode, IMO

storm tundra
#

so I’d play some runs with no shotgun and others with no SMG

olive cloud
#

hey ho whats wrong with reloading

exotic stone
#

slaps you in the face and makes you stop having fun

zealous bluff
#

HROT doesn’t have a dedicated reload key so you have to press the 2 key or whatever you mapped the pistol to

#

Personally I don’t mind reloading in fast paced shooters if the reload animation is relatively fast (e.g. Ion Fury)

#

But in general I think it’s something that works better for slower or more tactical shooters

olive cloud
#

I mean it makes sense if you have an mg. I can see why reloading can be annoying for some weapons but it's absolutely ok for others.

ocean burrow
#

but it looks too much like doom eternal and 2016

tired marsh
#

It plays more like Ultimate Doom than those 2.

ocean burrow
#

ok but it looks more like doom eternal

#

with the orange outlines on enemies

#

and the gun that shoots the blue stuff

exotic stone
#

a lot of guns in games shoot blue stuff

zealous bluff
# olive cloud that kinda sucks tho

It feels weird at first but you get used to it. Still not a fan of having to reload the pistol though when you don’t have to for every other weapon.

tired marsh
#

Don't judge a game by its looks? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

olive cloud
#

yea thats also weird. If it was only the mg it would be fine

olive cloud
#

if a game looks a certain way it probably plays like that.

tired marsh
#

Sorry, was replying to one as many.

olive cloud
#

if a game doesn't look fun to play it probably isn't fun to play

tired marsh
#

He was saying it looks like Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal, when it plays more like classic Doom.

zealous bluff
#

Plays more like Brutal Doom IMO

storm tundra
#

so you couldn't control when you did it and they didn't show you how many bullets you had left in the clip

so it'd just be a break in the fire and it was really annoying
