the guns in this game ❀️

#

i like em all

#

They are fun guns

hollow turtle
#

dual shotguns is genius

#

and the AR is more like an M60

#

after playing up to neobabel today from the cutty mines, i see the hype now. gunplay is top notch

my favourite part of the guns is the spin animations

yeah, bound to R 🀣

#

this the first game I like to use the sniper rifle in

hunting rifle feels so nice. It's more a rifle themed railgun than sniper tho lol

@olive cloud I'd wager any of the top 20% of AFPS players would get the same response. been playing a lot of other Arena FPS games, mainly quake live and champions, and looking back at DUSK has made me appreciate how little I really knew about arena FPS games. Even though I can count the number of people who can beat me in DUSK with exactly 4 fingers I'm not even close to the top of the player pool of arena fps games overall.

Really hoping that the game gets an update to bring in some competition and reworks to make it live again.

i think i should try boomer juice one day, if it's as bad as he claims

vapid nimbus

It is definitely very non-specific citrus

but it will depend on the person

I personally really enjoy the zero ultra line

#

very smooth, gentle sweetness with a long and balanced caffeine buzz vs most energy drinks

balmy island
#

i do enjoy citrus flavored stuff with non excessive sweetness, sounds good

vapid nimbus
#

And if you really like the citrus, there's ultra Sunrise, which is the orange can

#

which tastes more like 'specific' citrus

balmy island

thanks bye

#

i love quickswapping between AR, dual shotty and rifle

amber sparrow
#

switching between weapons doesn't spare you their cooldowns

proven sinew
#

You can't swap from the ssg until its reloaded

opal plover
#

Now that I think about it I kind of wish it did

amber sparrow
#

yeah

proven sinew
#

Same with shotties and hunting rifle

opal plover
#

Quickswapping was the most fun part of doom 2016/eternal

amber sparrow
#

the only exception I know of is the cigar

#

which you don't need to wait for

proven sinew
#

It does keep the 4 sec cool down between heals though

#

So even if you switch you can't spam it

amber sparrow
#

yes but you can switch immediately after a puff

proven sinew
#

Yea

opal plover
#

It'd be pretty funny if there was a healing quickswap strat

proven sinew
#

Just spam q and m1

amber sparrow
#

theoretically you can get that 1 health without any time loss

#

because switching itself is instantaneous and there is no cooldown on the cigar

proven sinew
#

Imagine if you could swap from the ssg and to the ssg without having to wait for the reload

opal plover
#

That'd be super fun

#

Doing combos like that

amber sparrow
#

switching to it is zero seconds, taking a puff is zero seconds and switching away is zero seconds

#

free 1 health

#

I can see it becoming genuinely useful in endless, since there you don't get a lot of health recovery items

#

also useful in campaign

proven sinew
#

Cigar is already top tier in endless

#

I've found it useful in tougher custom maps too

amber sparrow
#

yeah if you take less 15 damage a minute on average and keep healing you'll be fine

#

though that's an average and you could always just eat a bunch of projectiles in a short time window and die

proven sinew
#

Toughest endless map is the ep2 one

amber sparrow
#

ep3 is easiest

proven sinew
#

It does have some props though

#

Metal box prop is super op

atomic latch
#

@dull moss no, didn't work

#

i also tried uninstalling and installing back

hollow turtle
#

OK i dont think i meant by quickswapping what you all meant

#

i just meant not sticking to just one gun for each encounter

upbeat pecan
#

I don't think the combat would feel as good if you could skip the 'cooldowns' You'd be able to combo way to fast for how low HP the enemies are

#

and you can already skip the animation for pulling the gun out, so you just end your combo on guns with longer cooldowns

olive cloud
#

you can still use regular shotguns, crossbow, Rivet, Ar for comboing and use SSG and Hunting rifle as "combo enders"

#

THe cooldowns are already low for most weapons

proven sinew
#

you can insta switch from the assault rifle

crimson folio
#

mega ytf

#

It simply has a low cooldown so it's basically instant

#

On the topic of quick-switching... It's kind of in the game already? Holding your fire button while swapping to the super shotgun already has it fire a volley in rapid succession.

olive cloud
upbeat pecan
grave saddle
#

Makes sense, doesn't it?

upbeat pecan
#

yea but you can't fire the ssg in rapid succession as compared to something like cool down canceling

#

youre still forced to the default rate of fire on it no matter what you do

#

unless you power it up with ff

undone jay
proven sinew
#

and also the ssg would be miles more op than it already is

#

ssg into riveter and back could instakill every pleb enemy

#

bosses would also stand no chance

faint quail
#

Well, the self damage up close with the riveter part of the combo would neuter the SSG somewhat, but yeah quick swap in general would be busted

vapid nimbus
#

need to add hyper confrontational 100percent timed shield enemy to warrant such a combination.

MaBig JohnRauder

proven sinew
#

dusk doesnt really care about balance, though, seeing it has a prop that deals more than 1mil damage

faint quail
#

Green flash Horrors LeonApproved

grave saddle
#

Okay, but that prop has its own ups and downs.

#

It's a little more balanced than it seems considering most enemies also die when throwing regular props.

#

I can tell you from my own experience with attempting Duskmare E1M10 that throwing said soap takes a lot more finesse than what may seem immediately obvious.

upbeat pecan
#

yea sometimes the horses are easier just to fight normally lol

grave saddle
#

Especially the failed experiment. They go down in one hunting rifle shot.

#

I've been working to completing every mission on Duskmare.

wise crane
amber bluff
#

yes

royal herald
faint quail
#

Oh, I just mean the riveter SSG combo specifically would be unfeasible to do up close since it'd damage you if done continuously

grave saddle
#

I don't know. I think Dusk's deathmatch is "balanced" enough.

#

At least for the type of arena shooter that it is.

Episode Two and Three meshed together for me. In a good way. They played into each other very well.

faint quail
#

Episode Two had Escher Labs, and that was pretty cool

grave saddle
#

And one of the moments in which the game made me tense up.

#

The end of Escher Labs was excellent.

#

... Well, the whole level was great.

faint quail

The first time I saw the level really lose touch with reality was woaaahhh

grave saddle
#

And its boss? Phenomenal work.

#

Made me shiver.

faint quail
#

The fuckin floor is brutal though

#

Fell down so many times

#

Also the announcer in the labs is a nice homage to half life, I'm pretty sure

It at least reminds me very much of it since just like half life I can't make out what the fucking guy is saying

dusk has less lore than fucking doom 1

snow spade

But a lot better atmosphere, and a lot more is told through the atmosphere

crimson folio
snow spade
#

I love doom 1, don't get me wrong, but the tension only gets knife-cuttingly thick whenever you get into a hard area. The environment's quality rests mainly in how it dynamically links together and how it lacks blemishes.

crimson folio
#

yeah maybe because dusk came out 25 years after doom huh

snow spade
#

Quake only came out 2 years after doom 1, and ties with dusk in everything other than environmental effects (stuff like fog), that being of course because it came out in friggin 1995, when computers didn't have enough power to handle advanced stuff in real time.

there is a need in learning the perfect angle for gaining max speeds on the early jumps and also for rjs and other environmental things that effect speed

YOu only need to hold FOrward and a strafe key while jumping repeatedly

dusk strafejumping is probably one of the easier examples

no mouse movements required. Also the horizontal speed boosts you get from enviormental stuff is so minor that you're basically wasting barrels or gas cans that you could throw on enemies.

Replaying Dusk after finishing it a couple days ago, this time w/ Intruder Mode enabled... Love it, sticking to that from now on. Saved so much time browsing through the weapons

#

Up to E2M8 now

faint quail
#

You're not a fan of picking which weapon to use?

hollow turtle
#

Not a fan of having so many guns on me all the time

#

Now I just have what I need for a given level

#

Quite liberating to not have to care about stocking up on ammo before leaving a level

#

Normally I don't like "pistol start" but with Dusk it just works for me. It also helps that I've found a decent number of secrets on my first and now 2nd playthroughs

Ah and learning that it's possible to reflect fireballs was great

then again i'm one of those plebs who thinks it's a shame classic Doom only has UAC Base levels in episode 1 and Quake only has Slipgate Bases in the first level of each episode

to clarify i absolutely loved episode 3 but I wouldn't pick it as my standalone episode to replay

Never did, only shooters I have are doom and blood

I did blood before doom

I still play DOOM II wads.

And Blood is more than a little unforgiving.

I got that ultimate doom thing

Off steam

grave saddle
#

I'm not going to tell you how to play the game, but you can go into the game's files and extract the wad directly. From there, you can play any source port. Which opens up many, many, many more wads to play.

@rose token I don't know if you ever played AVP classic but the co-op there is just "player dies, respawns"
because you are extremely fast, die extremely easily and friendly fire is super lethal. 1-2 bullets is enough but prox mines are also a thing in that game, and kill you ten times over

I mean it certainly isn’t like any other levels in the game

oh i thought we were talking about like unique ideas, like escher labs or homecoming

but yeah, the textures are different in it and the layout is different from other maps

how much harder is duskmare than cero?

nearly unplayable

storm tundra

is it just one shots or also more dudes?

Sorry if it's been answered before, but will Dusk on Switch include online multiplayer?

Bummer, but I understand. Really looking forward to the launch. Thanks a bunch. If uh, it's in unity and connecting online isn't much more complicated than websockets I'll legitimately do it for you guys. So.. there's that. Switch desperately needs a good Duskmatch. πŸ‘»

mild ginkgo
#

the main reason for no mp is that duskworld on PC is a completely different application than the base game, so in order to reach feature parity we would have to merge all the code into the main game. we may have a solution for it further down the road, but it would add a huge amount of development and qa time which would further delay the game

and we already are like 7 months past our deadline

#

Man, gyro when it works is the best

mild ginkgo
#

thats probably the thing we're least confident in, as nobody who works here really likes gyro controls, so we arent fully confident that we provided the best possible options gyro players would want

honest gust

I picked it up on PC awhile back but held off since I saw it was coming to the swonch

mild ginkgo
#

we are open to feedback when we launch it, and are more than willing to patch in additional gyro features

#

we can fully admit we arent experts in the space

honest gust
#

Sweet, I doubt you guys are huge switch players but overwatch does it really well, Doom eternal too.

#

Yeah, no, I get it. I appreciate that it's even a thing

mild ginkgo
#

yeah i should probably pick those up on switch to study their implementation

#

i checked a few games , but i wasnt happy with any of them really

#

warframe, immortal redneck, doom 1, uhhh some others

honest gust
#

What games? Its hit or miss. Some games I just can't.

#

Doom is kind of a weird one with the lack of verticality in aiming. Same with Duke.

When I play Eternal or Overwatch I'll usually have the gyro cranked high enough that I can sweep across the entirety of the screen with pretty small movements. Then I'll set the left stick pretty highish so I can flick it and 180. Once you break through that learning curve and find something that works though it's choice

When asked about the instant-kill soap weapon in the game, Szymanski laughed.
"We were brainstorming an 'ultimate weapon' to have in the game in the vein of the BFG and it had been a long night.

I bent over to pick it up and slipped, causing an intern to remark 'There's nothing more dangerous than soap.' The rest is history."

I wouldn't call myself a pro, but I think Duskworld's weapon balance in okay for the most part.

The super shotgun is only reliable up close, which also means your opponent's super shotgun is also reliable. As well as you're opening yourself up (however briefly) to bombardment via explosive weaponry.

Be sure to do it on duskmare as well maliciousultra

storm tundra
#

wait, you can?

balmy sluice
#

Yep

storm tundra
#

how

balmy sluice
#

Carefully

#

You have to hover with the xbow to get the secret

storm tundra
#

oh shit you can

#

i forgot you get pacifist by default on that level

balmy sluice
#

I haven't done it without quicksaving after Jakob and the speech though. That last fight is some real rng with getting that secret.

#

Mad respect if someone does it with 0 saves.

storm tundra
#

honestly i think doing the Jakob fight low-tech is pretty impressive in itself

#

especially on Duskmare

pulsar zinc
#

what does low tech mean?

lapis widget
#

completing a level with only using melee and the crossbow

#

i think objects are also allowed

#

escencially dont use guns

balmy sluice
#

You can use guns, just don't hit any bad guys with em.

#

And I think crossbow still counts against it if you kill someone with it. I can't remember.

storm tundra
#

no i don't believe it does

With the SDK release coming shortly after

Crossbow always cancels low tech for me

#

But I haven't bothered with awards in forever.

#

Is there any potential for enemy multiplier?

#

I feel like some levels could use more enemies

#

maybe with sdk

Finally managed to beat e3m9 again. I love this mission so much.

amber bluff
#

god that mission is so fucking good

#

i love it so much

grave saddle
#

Do it on Duskmare. It's better.

olive cloud
#

also less xbow ammo

light folio
#

neat

hey everyone. how does this 'pixel art' effect on 3d models work in Dusk? is it a shader like in Prodeus or just low resolution textures and low poly models?

upbeat pecan
olive cloud
random dune
#

Oh thanks. So its not shader

#

This is why the game is not as laggy as Prodeus

prisma halo
#

It's not a shader in Prodeus either, they rendered the models out into sprites

#

and then they just normal map them, similar to what Amid Evil does

grave saddle
upbeat pecan
#

Nice, but I just don't think it's objectively better. It really turns around the gameplay loop in favor of slow, safer, less exciting gameplay imo.

random dune
prisma halo
#

I mean, when we're talking 3D there's not much of a difference

grave saddle
#

I don't know. Objectively, probably not. But I'm a masochistic freak that enjoys torturing myself.

random dune
prisma halo
#

The normal mapping is a shader, but it's not the reason for the low res look

#

It looks low res because it actually is

random dune
#

it says "the game allows the player to apply shaders that give the game a pixelated look, simulating resolutions down to 360p or even 216p. The game also has the option to dynamically convert enemy and item models to sprites, further simulating a retro experience."

prisma halo
#

That's referring to downscaling the whole screen, not individual things like objects in the scene

random dune
#

oh I got you

#

its kind of image shader?

#

post process or something

prisma halo
#

The screen downscaling is, yeah

random dune
#

ok thanks

#

but its still weird that the game is a bit laggy

#

drops <60 fps

prisma halo
#

What are your specs?

random dune
#

1050ti, ryzen 3 1200, 16 gb ram

prisma halo
#

dunno then, that does seem a little odd

#

although I think Prodeus uses a lot of dynamic lighting

random dune
#

yeah maybe

#

VFX

#

and etc

#

by the way, are you a Unity developer?

mild ginkgo
#

yeah theres a lot of particles and transparencies in prodeus

random dune
#

yeah

mild ginkgo
#

id call him a developer that happens to also use unity lol

#

but yes, hes one of the people who works for new blood, like myself, and people with the pinkish name here

random dune
#

so you must be using Unity too

mild ginkgo
#

yes

#

i use it more than i would like to

random dune
#

what design patterns do you guys use in projects, if I may ask?

mild ginkgo
#

thats a very broad question, do you have anything specific in mind?

random dune
#

ECS?

#

this is a programming thing

mild ginkgo
#

Unity ECS is an incomplete featureset

#

so no, its not in use in any of our projects

prisma halo
#

We just use whatever we feel works best for what we're working on

random dune
#

yeah I know but maybe you have your own implementation or use community solutions

#

oh ok

mild ginkgo
#

theres no hard and fast rules, especially because most of the time, the projects we take on are in-progress
