dusk-duskworld-dungeonsofdusk

[zealous hatch]

O right yea that would be cool

I assume I would have to do it everytime I launch the game

[prisma halo]

nah it'd get saved

[zealous hatch]

Cool!

Would I need to delete the unity file i downloaded from the pinned thread? Im slow lol

When that comes

[prisma halo]

It'd probably get overwritten by the update

So you wouldn't have to change any files

[zealous hatch]

Perfect thanks

I just hope that command line would be mentioned in a patch so I know when it dropped

[lament dawn]

dusk moment

[west sedge]

you bring no substance to this channel

[lament dawn]

your so extra

[lament dawn]

lmao

not surprised tbh

[proven sinew]

I become stronger with every blocked message

[lament dawn]

why the fuck does the whole window shake when trying to react to a blocked guy

[proven sinew]

Ur not alone bro

[lament dawn]

rip

[crimson folio]

jesus christ

[tardy slate]

Holy fuck

[olive cloud]

what

does anybody want to find someone to play with on duskworld? I want do get ranks higher than mook but there's literally nothing else besides my copypastas that keep me on this server

[blazing bridge]

epic wendigo

[misty swift]

wendigo

is indeed epic

[spare cobalt]

lmfao

scritch scrotch fucking sells it

[zealous hatch]

Do u scritch scrotch ur dogg

[small cairn]

I scritch scrotch my cat

[misty swift]

i do not have a pet but i want a pet Horror so i can feed it soap and murder it

[grave saddle]

This is why you don't have a pet.

[zealous hatch]

Lmao

[wide lagoon]

i f***ing love dusk

[warm bloom]

Damn the switch update has been great so far, can finally play with a detatched controller without my brain frying. Good ol yaw is finally here.

For some reason my brain could not grasp the roll controls detatched

Worked just fine in handheld

But i just couldnt do it otherwise

The joycon selection of left vs right is very nice as well

@mild ginkgo yall did good on the patch

[mild ginkgo]

👍

sorry it took so long! nintendo red tape!

[warm bloom]

Oof, nintendo was being a bitch eh?

[lapis widget]

Yea lol

[warm bloom]

I dont see what issues they would have with someone updating their game. Then again, it's nintendo.

[mild ginkgo]

they didnt like the way we spelled joycon in the menu

its spelled joy-con not joycon

[tired marsh]

[mild ginkgo]

and they also got mad one of the loading screen tips said "press the right thumbstick"

[lapis widget]

Fuck off nintendo

[mild ginkgo]

they made us change it to "press the right stick"

each of those changes alone added ~1 week to the processing time for the patch

[tired marsh]

That's weirdly anal

[mild ginkgo]

yeah thats just how they are, its a little frustrating!

[sonic night]

Thats how microsoft used to be

Unsure if they still are

[misty swift]

what song plays during dweller in darkness? i know keepers of the gate plays for the final round but is it different for the rest

[sonic night]

I'm guessing nintendo also doesn't like Deadzone adjustment options

[grave saddle]

Nowhere, that's the song.

[misty swift]

thanks

[tired marsh]

Doesn't Quake on the Switch let you adjust the deadzone?

[sonic night]

Dunno, didn't get that version yet

[magic trout]

where's the song, sorry?

how did you lose the song?

go find it

[mild ginkgo]

Yes you can do deadzone adjustments on the switch

[zealous hatch]

just finished playing it and WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, awesome. love the aesthetics and all the references

[mild ginkgo]

which episode? or you finished all 3?

glad you enjoyed it either way

[zealous hatch]

all 3, the one with gravity stuff really had me notious

like i may take a while to find the right path sometimes, so it just prolonged my pain, but otherwise cool

[grave saddle]

The gravity gimmick was amazing for exploration, but so vastly different I wound up disliking it at first.

Playing it again for soap and completion had me liking it a little more.

[zealous hatch]

idk it just made me feel not well

maybe replaying it and knowing where to go helps alot

but i just forgot what i had to do so prolly not lol

[grave saddle]

It certainly isn't one of my levels to replay.

[zealous hatch]

but i loved the aesthetics of everything, even that level

[mild ginkgo]

it was pretty clear to us that the last 3 levels leading up to the end would be divisive because they shake things up in strange ways

[zealous hatch]

interesting

[mild ginkgo]

an arena level, the gravity switching, and the "mash a bunch of levels youve already played into one" level

some people like em, some dont

[zealous hatch]

i wished dusk had like a developer commentary

[grave saddle]

That would be pretty cool.

[lapis widget]

There’s a few streams out there of the devs commentary I think

[grave saddle]

Ugh, you want me to look for my content?/jk

[zealous hatch]

i mean it would be cool if all that information would be centralised and available in the game as i play

the arena level was nice , it felt like endless mode

[grave saddle]

Endless mode is how I practiced for the Duskmare attempts on that level.

[zealous hatch]

hah

but i dont like the misstress with grenades or whatev bombs she throws

im more scared of her than the bosses

[lapis widget]

Cowgirls

[zealous hatch]

that

[grave saddle]

Easy, just kill them.

They drop prizes!

[zealous hatch]

yea they drop hp if i remember corectly but they are so healthy

[grave saddle]

Three rivets kill easily.

[zealous hatch]

i guess so

also the walk on everything power up is hard to get used to

at least for me lol

[grave saddle]

Very much so.

Other folks had that problem, too.

[zealous hatch]

ah okay

[mild ginkgo]

the climbing powerup is definitely something we never got quite right

thats why we made edits to the switch version to make it not necessary in the intended path for any level

[lapis widget]

Oh it’s not in the switch release?

[mild ginkgo]

its in the switch version

but the levels have been altered slightly to not require its use

[zealous hatch]

I wondered if a"double jump" powerup would ve been the same as good to progress

[upbeat pecan]

I think double jump would have felt really strange with dusks strafejumping

but who knows until you try

[grave saddle]

Vertical strafe-hopping.

[upbeat pecan]

Wonder what we'll be able to change on the final sdk

double jumps, dashing, scroll wheel jumps, meathooks and quickswapping for dusk eternal lol

I think would feel really bad

[grave saddle]

It would.

Undeniably.

[zealous hatch]

Dusk eternal

[upbeat pecan]

still would try it tho lol

[zealous hatch]

Or

Dusk forever

[grave saddle]

Gah...

Drunk off one quaffed beer.

[upbeat pecan]

Doom may be eternal. But one must always reign beneath Dusk

[mild ginkgo]

if i had it my way, jumping with scroll wheel would brick your pc

but sadly im forbidden from distributing malware as a patch

strafe is a circle around him

and shoot him till hes dead

i wish it was

scroll wheel jumpers are heretics and cowards

sometimes its best to back away so you have more time to react and dodge

[upbeat pecan]

I've always seen it as something thats a means to end. It doesn't feel as good as proper buffer jumps but sometimes you take what you can get lol

My favorite has always been RMB to jump

[mild ginkgo]

ive always seen it as a copout and cowardice and refusal to get good

[upbeat pecan]

For which game. I don't play any scroll wheel heavy games but in like DE for example its pretty needed for speedruns

[mild ginkgo]

speedruns are a bit different, most people who ask for wheel jumping arent speedrunners

because speedrunners have the self respect to use the tools theyre given

[lament wharf]

I genuinely don't understand how that'd help anyway. You have to pause to reset your finger position on the scroll-wheel. With a button you just tap tap tap tap, ez.

[mild ginkgo]

it eliminates the need to learn timing

thats the main reason

they can just sorta spam it hoping it lines up for them

[upbeat pecan]

Ah true, I was just thinking for runs on various games, not really anything pvp

[mild ginkgo]

its laziness

speedruns are all about using every tool in reach to go as fast as possible, so the context is different

[lament wharf]

I genuinely think if I tried using the scroll-wheel for it, it'd absolutely screw me up.

[mild ginkgo]

well especially in dusk where you have buffered jumps, yeah

[lament wharf]

That said, I did dabble in Defrag back in the day, so I might not be coming at it from the same place as those people.

[zealous hatch]

I only bhop in left 4 dead 2 , in which it s meta to bhop with spacebar so i liked the auto bhop in this

[upbeat pecan]

For dusk specific scroll wheel shenanigans there are a lot of IL runs that have use bound to the scroll wheel to spam use as soon as you get near a switch

[lament wharf]

... this reminds me, I have never seen Quake speedran. I should look that up, that might be some serious fun.

[upbeat pecan]

That said I still have this fantasy to try out dusk with a bunch of different movement styles from games like defrag, q2, half life, q1 etc

[mild ginkgo]

quake is a hugely popular speedurn

we actually had plans for a dusk promod movement at one point lol

[upbeat pecan]

lol

[mild ginkgo]

lemme see if i can find the document

[lament wharf]

HAH! That grenade jump in level 2. I love that!

[zealous hatch]

Would more survival maps be added in the future?

[lament wharf]

Okay, Quake Speedruns are looking real fun.

[zealous hatch]

I saw like 2 survival maps in the dusk alpha folder and those were neat but not included in the game

[mild ginkgo]

it was really just a few ideas written down lol

[lament wharf]

dukspro.txt

[lapis widget]

Duks

[upbeat pecan]

That would be pretty cool

I do love Dusk movement for what it is, but it is somewhat limited at times.

[lament wharf]

Not gonna lie, 6dof swimming fucked with me for a bit before I got used to it. Then I started missing it everywhere else.

[upbeat pecan]

I think it works perfect for the context of the game though. I wouldn't change it, just would be neat to try some more nuanced and momentum heavy stuff

[zealous hatch]

Maybe as a mod or smt

[upbeat pecan]

Yea maybe one day or not lol

[crimson folio]

duSDK

[zealous hatch]

Yes

[lament dawn]

ive become addicted to reflecting with middle mouse button

[vague temple]

is there tap to crouch

[crimson folio]

you can slide

[vague temple]

yeah but i dont like being stuck in crouch after i slide

[lapis widget]

Then stop crouching

[vague temple]

thats why i want tap to crouch

[upbeat pecan]

yea there is toggle crouch

you can turn it off so when you let go of the key you stand up

[vague temple]

yeah how

[mild ginkgo]

its in the menu

called "toggle crouch"

[final lion]

Is it really that significant of a difference compared to space bar jumping?

[mild ginkgo]

yes

[final lion]

I wouldn't know since I've never used the scroll wheel to jump, but I had a speedrunner friend who did

[mild ginkgo]

basically it allows you to press jump dozens of times per second depending on your scrollwheel

so it eliminates the need for any kind of manual timing or accuracy

[grave saddle]

In the case of DOOM Eternal, this means breaking the game entirely.

But that is also dependent on your FPS, too.

So, like. Scroll-wheel jumping is pay-to-win.

[mild ginkgo]

lmao

[lament wharf]

I mean, it's singleplayer so I don't really care how people play it as such. The whole scrollwheel jumping just feels so weird to me.

[west sedge]

nah

for dusk? yeah sure

but for basically all other games I see no issue

[olive cloud]

It depends on the game. It makes sense in csgo but not in dusk because the jump input is extremely forgiving and you're going to be jumping a lot more so you'll put pressure on your mouse which can mess up your aim

[karmic coral]

just copped dusk

[fading owl]

Nice

[mild ginkgo]

it makes no sense in csgo

just get good

[west sedge]

it does

it’s for bhopping

[amber sparrow]

just uninstall countar strike

[west sedge]

clearly, you know nothing about the source engine

https://tenor.com/view/tony-stark-avengers-rdj-gif-7389445

[amber sparrow]

it's not really source

[west sedge]

yes it’s the weird demented baby that is csgo

[amber sparrow]

you can make a source game and have autohops

csgo ahs autohops too but it's behind a cvar that counts as a cheat

also idk why they couldn't actually fix bhops for CSGO if they didn't want it to be a thing

TF2 has speed limits

[west sedge]

they dislike it or something idk

valve moments

[amber sparrow]

ok but why not actually remove it like in TF2

if they don't like it

[west sedge]

no clue

[amber sparrow]

instead of just making jump inputs bad

[west sedge]

also bhopping does exist in tf2

where’d you get that from

[amber sparrow]

what kind of fucking bhopping is there in tf2

[rare raven]

the type.

[west sedge]

there’s a few examples but i’ll name the one I remember

uh what is it

when you’re blast jumping as for example soldier and you hit the ground if you land the bhop you’ll still be blast jumping

this is very useful for the market gardener

[amber sparrow]

ok but that doesn't affect speed

[west sedge]

the term bhop isn’t exclusive to just building speed

[mild ginkgo]

this is exactly why i hate it in csgo

players use the scrollwheel as a crutch instead of just getting good

[west sedge]

dude

[mild ginkgo]

just get good

[west sedge]

bhopping in csgo in a non-bhopping server is agonizing

it’s a mix of INCREDIBLY strict timing and a MOUNTAIN of luck

[mild ginkgo]

yep

thats why i have no respect for players that use scrollhopping in that game

[west sedge]

you can’t just say to someone “get good don’t use scroll wheel” when it’s practically impossible without it

[mild ginkgo]

i beg to differ lol

[west sedge]

not impossible just annoying

[mild ginkgo]

yeah exactly

[west sedge]

anyway i’m bored and tired bye

[mild ginkgo]

fair

and based

[olive cloud]

it does in official ranked modes

[mild ginkgo]

no it doesnt

get good

[olive cloud]

if you wanna try to bhop

omg yes it does. The input window is extremely small and using mwheel allows you to hit it better in csgo

in ranked

[mild ginkgo]

https://c.tenor.com/mhTqHVRqafIAAAAM/diagnosis-skill-issue.gif

Yes. Using aimhacks allows you to aim better too

Doesn't mean you should use them

[amber sparrow]

bhop in csgo is just so shit it's better to ignore

like you could generate 2 tons of ass sweat for +20% speed for a few seconds

but why

I think Quake accidentally managed to make its speed tech perfect

It rewards you with a bit even more speed for tapping the jump button as little as possible but you still gain a lot of speed if you just hold it

For an unintentional mechanic it's surprisingly perfect

Though I think the original Q2 and Q3 didn't allow you to autojump

Anyway I think autojump + some extra reward for precision is the perfect way

[zealous hatch]

doesn't jump once in dusk full playthrough like a boss

[amber sparrow]

well you can go fast by just running diagonally

[zealous hatch]

Yea

[amber sparrow]

and sliding I guess

actually the game wasn't even supposed to have speed boosts for jumping originally
i think

it's kinda just slapped on top for those who really want something like it

it works

basically you gain about +20% speed each time you jump while strafing, up to 200% speed

and it resets if you touch the ground without jumping

it's faked b hop

for maximum speed

combine with superhot powerhop shenanigans and you can basically jump the length of an entire map lol

[upbeat pecan]

Quake 1 uses buffer jumps

[amber sparrow]

probably not all versions

i think the new port does

i but I played unmodified steam version before the new port and it had auto

anyway quake live and QC have auto

[upbeat pecan]

Auto is nice for some things. In quake live I’d want it

But for speed runs buffering is always top IMO. But I’d take auto over scroll. But If a game used scroll to run it like DE I’d do scroll no question

DE allows a macro as well to emulate scroll wheel

[zealous hatch]

I hate scroll, it messes up with my muscle memory, YA JUMP WITH SPACE

[amber sparrow]

I use stupid controls like EDSF in games but even i use space to jump

[upbeat pecan]

I use rmb

Ffs phone

[misty swift]

i only jump with scroll for portal speedruns

[thorn lake]

hello friends

I just beat dusk for the first time 🙂

what do i do with my life now

[crimson folio]

Now beat it on dsukmare.

[thorn lake]

yes that sounds like a good idea that won't cause insane amounts of frustration

i think first i'm gonna try to get all secrets tho

also multiplayer is fun but there's only ever a couple people playing at a time

[wise crane]

Go to #903113855964680252 to find games

[thorn lake]

awesome thank you!

[zealous hatch]

Me when trying to play serious difficulty on serious sam

[misty swift]

after beating dusk i wishlisted several boomer shooters

[zealous hatch]

Which

[misty swift]

actually fuck i really wanna see half life with dusk movement, like the strategy elements of half life (which is why i liked it so much, gordon is a scientist not a soldier so its what hed be better at) mixed with fucking speed

[zealous hatch]

Yea it s called bhoping like mad

And giving urself all guns earlier

[misty swift]

couple that were recommended in here, some i saw on my twitter page that ill have to check when i get home

not sure why i didnt know boomer shooters were so for me lol, ive always been playing roguelikes and strategy/turn based games

[lament wharf]

Used to do that, but I've been corrupted by Secondary Fire/ADS in more modern shooters so I can't get that muscle memory back.

A good keyboard will have a reliable spacebar though.

[upbeat pecan]

It’s all preferences with no right or wrong. The timing just feels better to me on rmb and a bit more ergonomic since you click it a lot

I normally use secondary fire on space unless dusk I put on shift because you barely ever need to zoom

[steady hull]

I think we can now put DUSK in the Pantheon of Indie games, because i Just Saw something that every other GOAT Indie game had

A game that is taking a Just a little bit too much inspiration from it

This game honestly looks like It could be pretty good on its own, but boy does it look similar

[misty swift]

yeah i saw that actually, i was like “huh looks cool” then kept watching…

and it really really looked similar

not a bad thing necessarily; but still a point i guess

[steady hull]

I actually seen some big successful Indie games get very similar looking games made after them, so i see this as flattery

A Very weird kind of one

[misty swift]

yeah i agree

at least its not like minecraft clones lol

[steady hull]

Don't even mean Minecraft, i actually know of other examples of indie games getting these copycat games too

[misty swift]

i know, but thats the first example that i thought of

[lament wharf]

Can't put my finger on it precisely, but I'm not liking the arstyle/animation.

Dusk is crisp and everything you see is very clearly identifiable. Those 20ish seconds didn't really show that.

[misty swift]

i think the animation feels too smooth in comparison to the art style?

[lament wharf]

That might be it, too. Almost looks ragdolly at times. The neck movement on the guys with the axes, for instance.

[misty swift]

im sure itll turn out better in the end, its not done right?

[lament wharf]

I tend to remain leery of "old school" looks until I see reviews. When done right, it's bloody amazing, but all too often it's a shortcut for a dev that doesn't actually know how to do visual design and art well.

[misty swift]

true

for me ive been making it my style, im a pixel artist so its exactly what i like

[lament wharf]

Mhm. I think many falls into that trap as newbies. Pixel art is "simple" and thus it must be easy. Frankly, the less you have to work with in terms of polygons or pixels, the harder it is to make it good as far as I'm concerned.

Have to do a lot more with less.

[misty swift]

yeah its seriously NOT easy though, been doin this nearly 4 years and i learned that the hard way

one of the hardest/most niche art forms except when you animate it, animating it is actually quite easy if you know ehat you're doing

[grave saddle]

From the looks of it, it could do with more lighting overall.

Very dark, and hard to discern enemies at a glance.

[misty swift]

yeah i agree

the enemies felt like they came out of nowhere, meanwhile dusk you'll always know

[grave saddle]

I didn't hear any sound, though, that may be it.

A lot of Dusk's enemies have constant sound cues.

[misty swift]

true

[lament wharf]

Looks very early in development though.

[grave saddle]

Oh absolutely.

[misty swift]

yes, itll likely grow to be much better and much less like dusk

[grave saddle]

I'll be sure to follow it.

[misty swift]

yeah i already did

[lament wharf]

Will probably be some polish on that stuff, since they're on social media and probably get feedback.

[grave saddle]

Because, even if it's literally a Dusk clone, more Dusk is more Dusk.

[misty swift]

true

i do hope they take the greatness provided by dusk and turn it into something totally unique though

[grave saddle]

Aye.

[misty swift]

honestly i never thought id play a shooter with a more badass ending that half life 1, but dusk fucking did it. if it isnt obvious, i really like games far past my time

wasnt even alive when hl2 cane out lol

then again what does age matter here

[grave saddle]

I've never actually played the Half-Life games.

[misty swift]

im probably going to get quake since it seems fun to play

trust me they're good, hl2 had proper physics so i think it tried to have a lot more puzzle aspect

[grave saddle]

Quake is fine, yeah. Definitely first of its kind.

[misty swift]

still a great game, but i think it turned gordon into a war machine when hes literally a scientist. hl1 did strategy super well and the enemy ai was brilliant

plus i think being stuck in black mesa was cooler than in city 17, even though hl2 had more of a plot focus and it was a really good plot

[grave saddle]

That's what I've heard.

[misty swift]

man how did my taste become retro games? and how did that taste turn into me becoming a pixel artist lmfao

[lament wharf]

HL1 wasn't bad at all, but the ending, really?

It's the reason I don't replay HL1. Xen, and to a lesser degree that Rail System level.

[misty swift]

oh fuck the first areas of xen

it gets cool around the factory part

final fight was ehhhh but i liked the ending scene

[misty swift]

MY GOD FUCK ON A RAIL

THAT LEVEL IS SO ASS

[lament wharf]

... I mean, if we wear hi-vis jackets and keep a watch out, I'm game.

But I'm cheap that way.

[misty swift]

what

[lament wharf]

Oh you didn't mean... nevermind.

[misty swift]

…oh i think

oh

yeah no

[olive cloud]

man

sometimes im really mad that the ssg is so weak in this game

like it should be at least as powerful as the ssg in doom 1

but it's not it's so weak why

[lament dawn]

ssg is strong

its just that your not cheesing every single enemy thats stronger then a leatherneck with the 25 ssg shots

[grave saddle]

The Super Shotgun wasn't in DOOM 1.

[olive cloud]

what

idk what you mean by that but the ssg just isn't stong

i can't onehit scarecrows like it's a double barrel shotgun

why would that not work???

[lament dawn]

well scarecrows dont one shot you with their double barrel shotguns

unless your on duskmare

[olive cloud]

ok

but the mages also don't one shot me

but i can one shot them

[lament dawn]

well lets see

[olive cloud]

why can't i one shot the scarecrows? Bad gamedesign

[lament dawn]

whats stronger a small fire ball that travels slowly or 2 shotgun shots happening at the same time

[lament dawn]

if anything thats good game design

if teaches the player 1 ssg shot isnt worth tanking a lot of damage

[lapis widget]

https://tenor.com/view/todd-howard-it-just-works-bethesda-this-all-just-works-gif-20598651

[grave saddle]

Dusk is very much not a game you can just super shotgun through like several DOOM gamess.

It takes the Serious Sam approach of a strong and slow weapon that you still need to use in tandem with your other guns.

This is brilliant.

[olive cloud]

Whats stronger 2 shotgun shots happening at the same time or bunch of straw and stick wrapped in cheap cloth

see

[carmine spear]

buncha sticks of course

[olive cloud]

You should be able to oneshot scarecrows

[lament dawn]

well lets just say that straw and stick arent usually possesed by demons

[lapis widget]

dusk is a bad imsim

[carmine spear]

don't forget that they are alive for some reason

[grave saddle]

If you want to take the realistic approach, Dusk Dude bleeds out from the open meat hook wounds.

[olive cloud]

Same with ultrakill railgun it just sucks

[grave saddle]

Or enemies die to a single headshot with a pistol.

[lament dawn]

#ultrakill

[lapis widget]

that's why he's capped at 200 hp

[steady hull]

It takes playing the game at Cero Miedo to realize that the SSG isn't actually that worth it, considering how easy enemies can kill you in that difficulty

[olive cloud]

YEA

[grave saddle]

Precisely.

[olive cloud]

ssg is just far to much risk even if you can onehit a lot of enemies

[steady hull]

In that difficulty i wanted enemies as far away from me as possible, so the Crossbow and the Riveter and Mortar were my BFFs

[olive cloud]

no reason to use it really

[lament dawn]

you know what to use the ssg for?

close range corner peaking

[olive cloud]

nothing

[lapis widget]

barbecue

[olive cloud]

i got the hunting rifle for that

[lament dawn]

it does more damage then the hunting rifle if all pellets connect

[olive cloud]

im pretty skilled from my csgo games with the HR

i think i can probably win a lot of duskworld just using my csgo skills

[lament dawn]

besides you should be saving you hunting rifle for farther enemies and flying ones

[olive cloud]

probably don't even need to learn how to do the bunnyjumping in duskworld since my HR aim is so good

[lament dawn]

well lets say that if duskworld players aim is also so good and they bunny hop then

[crimson folio]

assuming they exist

(they dont)

[grave saddle]

That mentality is what gets you gibbed with the super shotgun you call so useless.

[olive cloud]

i bet i can beat you in duskworld with my csgo skilsl

[lament dawn]

yeah i bet you haven’t even beat the game on cero meido

[wise crane]

Kreuzerman wishes he had CSGO skills so he could beat JimJim on Fusillade 🙄

It's yet to happen however

[olive cloud]

ok then 1v1 on duskworld

[lament dawn]

cant do that when am on a phone

[lapis widget]

bullshit excuse

[lament dawn]

yeah your right

need to install dusk on my iphone 8

[olive cloud]

yea

he's to afraid to 1v1 skilled FPS players

[lament dawn]

kinda in the middle of something

[olive cloud]

you just learn a lot from csgo. It translates well into all shooters. Even older shooters like COD4 or Doom 2016

[lament dawn]

give me a second and il fight you

[olive cloud]

ok

[grave saddle]

"CSGO translates well into all shooters."

What.

[lament dawn]

yeah idk what this guy is saying

its like they never played half life

[olive cloud]

🙄

just 1v1 me in dusk already i will show you

[lapis widget]

expert arena fps player

[lament dawn]

yeah can you wait a minute?

[misty swift]

my favorite way to use SSG is to slide into them as i use it, sorta to push forward while dealing enough damage to matter. sure its not as good as say using a better weapon, but its badass as fuck

[lament dawn]

i got baited

[lament wharf]

SSG is my go-to when I deal with nasty things in close range, simply because I want to be able to deal as much damage as I can, and if I slightly miss in my zoomzoom state, I'll still do some damage.

[olive cloud]

[lament dawn]

this guy is worthy

[misty swift]

He was worthy, you know.

sry for trolling ssg is obviously good

[lament dawn]

[misty swift]

wait what happened

did he just use the ssg and call it a day

[lament dawn]

no

he fooled me into thinking he didnt like ssg

and then proceeded to obliterate me in duskworld

a fine troll

[misty swift]

also can we address how fucking awesome the mortar is? at first glance it doesnt seem that useful compared to riveter and then when you get to large hoards it becomes your best friend

[olive cloud]

idk man im sorry if i was an ass

[misty swift]

[olive cloud]

im pretty sure it's gonna be at christmas

everybody is going to be home anyways

HOW TO ENHANCE EXPERIENCE:
turn off camera animations
Turn of vertical flipping
Turn off Bloom
Turn off lightflares
turn up FOV
turn down Weapon size
BIND all weapons around wasd
HOLD W and A and spam jump to go fast (strafehopping)

for duskworld

[wise crane]

No one will have anything better to do or anything

[crimson folio]

dusk sdk update for christmas? (allgedley)

[misty swift]

im not actually sure why the flipping feature exists in dusk tbh

[crimson folio]

looks badass

[misty swift]

i mean i guess

just super super disorienting ig

hence why you can turn it off, and im glad thats an option

[lapis widget]

why not a and d?

[olive cloud]

i mean sure they will but if they do it 3 days after christmas

[tired marsh]

He doesn't drown underwater

Otherwise ||E3M3|| would be real hard lol

[misty swift]

Another forty minutes of failed E3M9 Duskmare attempts.

Cool.

I have about an hour and forty minutes recorded, I'm getting close.

[west sedge]

what strategy are you using

crystal of madness or no crystal

[grave saddle]

Y'know, the worthy one.

[west sedge]

there’s a few

[grave saddle]

The crystal really isn't worth it.

[west sedge]

it is

i’ve done duskmare runs with and without the crystal it makes a large difference

the easiest way to do the level it to just abuse the sword reflect with the crystal and rivet/hunting rifle things which would be an issue

[grave saddle]

Yeah, but I don't feel like crossing an invisible bridge every time I die.

And I can already tell the enemies in-fighting is going to screw with my muscle memory.

[west sedge]

why not

no-reset therapy

no-reset therapy is basically a dumb way to say “a given amount of time to reflect on what happened”

[grave saddle]

To hell with that, man. I already fall off the bridge leading to the teleporter enough times.

Getting to that crystal, getting it back, and teleporting it to the arena without dropping it off the ledge or telefragging it is just too much.

[west sedge]

it’s not that hard

and i’m not saying you have to use the crystal lol

[grave saddle]

I'm definitely telling you I'm not going to use it.

[west sedge]

that is exactly why I just said this

[grave saddle]

Everything I've said has been telling you that. I... Know.

I know I don't have to.

is there a way to host a server on a vps for my friends

[west sedge]

oh wait I see what you mean

[ashen lava]

like a daemon

[upbeat pecan]

Any damage voids untouchable. Which is why you can clear a map on duskmare but not get untouchable

[grave saddle]

Which is why it is a super cool gigachad move to end a Duskmare level without untouchable.

Rivet jump out of the line of fire!

[strange axle]

just finished Dusk

damn, what a good game

[lament dawn]

ikr

[strange axle]

at first i was like "eh, this game is good, but not amazing"

and then i dropped it for like 2 months

and now i've decided to finish it

and i gotta say

i'm impressed

it's like Doom + Duke Nukem + Quake + Half-Life

it's great

also, i might've dropped it because i was playing on hard lol

but yeah

cool game 👍

[misty swift]

well, if you beat it on Cero Miedo, you are Worthy

also, i did the same

[strange axle]

nah, i played episode 1 on Cero Miedo

[misty swift]

ah

[strange axle]

and E2M1

then i dropped it

and a few days ago (yesterday i think) i decided to come back

and decided to play on normal

[misty swift]

yeah, e1 is pretty slow, e2 is fucking slow until you get to erebus reactor, and then e3 goes by in an instant

[strange axle]

but i will play again on Hard later

[misty swift]

fair

[lapis widget]

[misty swift]

i need to replay the game on cero miedo

[strange axle]

ikr

E3 is amazing

[misty swift]

i finished e1 in about a week, e2 over several months, e3 in 2 days

[strange axle]

played through all of it just today i think

[misty swift]

woulda been one if i didnt have to sleep

[strange axle]

yep

same as me lol

also

[misty swift]

[strange axle]

quick question

[lapis widget]

[strange axle]

the house that we visit at the end of E3 is Dusk Dude's, right?

[misty swift]

yeah i think so

[lapis widget]

yea

[strange axle]

and it seems that his family died in some way, right?

[misty swift]

seems so. not sure how

[strange axle]

oh ok

that's just what i needed to know

[misty swift]

wonder how a sequel might be if it happened

[strange axle]

cause that's the only thing that was bugging me

[misty swift]

instinct tells me it'd be similar to the dark souls trilogy, and the third game is when the loop is finally broken

[strange axle]

i'd bet in either another protagonist or something like a quest to free yourself from that monster from ending

i can't remember his name

:/

[strange axle]

might be as well

[misty swift]

||nyarlothep|| however the fuck you spell it

[strange axle]

||Nyarlothep||

[misty swift]

no

[strange axle]

i guess someone watched too much anime

anyways

pretty epic game

[misty swift]

truly

[strange axle]

i guess i'll try and do a pacifist run sometime as well

wonder how that'll work out

wait, when did Dusk come out?

2018 or 2019?

[lapis widget]

18

[strange axle]

oh wow

i thought it was older

like, 2016

[lapis widget]

it went into early access in 2016 i think

[strange axle]

i see

also, jesus E3M9 is hard

[misty swift]

i honestly always thought amid evil was the first of the new blood FPS, but apparently it was dusk all along

not sure why i thought that though. just feels like it is i guess

[strange axle]

hmm, i thought that too

maybe because AE is a bit more

i dunno

"standard" i guess

not in a bad way

[misty swift]

no i getcha

[strange axle]

i wonder how well those games would be recieved if they were released during the 90"s

[crimson folio]

iirc implied that his family was killed by cult while he was gone from DUSK

[strange axle]

i see

[lament dawn]

i played dusk and stopped at e3m3 and then maybe after a month finished it

[misty swift]

...oh

i must say, cero miedo is much harder

never expected them to deal so much damage

[lament dawn]

yup

this gets really hard on ||e3m9||

[misty swift]

id imagine

i died on fucking e1m2

got cornered by a leatherneck and got my ass beat

He went straight into the town to get money and treasure

I need help finding the secret missions

I already found the one from Episode 1

Now i need to find the ones from E2 and E3

[grave saddle]

Oh there are flares in the gun bag.

All right, so..

For E3. Flush yourself.

I'm serious.

[strange axle]

?

Like

Toilet?

[grave saddle]

Flush.

[strange axle]

Ok

But which mission is It?

[grave saddle]

Embrace the Darkness.

[strange axle]

Ok

And from E2?

[grave saddle]

There's a wall you can blow up in that one thresher map.

In the level where the exit is guarded by, like, four Wendigos.

[strange axle]

Oh

Ok

Thanks

[misty swift]

does anyone know where duskdude actually was before dusk? i know theres a literal prequel but uh i dont want to buy it yet

[crimson folio]

Probably was at home somewhere.

[warm bloom]

Just beat the game for the first time on go easy, ||took the cowards way out e3m9 but i will be returning to it to take it on||, gonna beat it again on higher difficulties, loved it all the way through.

[misty swift]

…home?

[crimson folio]

Probably.

[misty swift]

heh nice about me

[misty swift]

its so good lol, havent even beat the boss since despite my constant parrying

i'm trying to find the secret exit

and i found a hole at the end of the level

but now i kinda don't know what to do lmao

also this cultist is stuck on the jump pad lol

[desert oak]

youre a piece of shit

so you need to flush yourself

[strange axle]

ok, but where tho?

[desert oak]

there should be a hidden switch to open a room at the start

[strange axle]

ok

thanks

i'll try and find that out

somewhere

[lament dawn]

flush yourself

[strange axle]

how

how did i not find that?

bruh

i guess i can i say i am pretty fast

also, i really like intruder mode

makes me search more for secrets

[misty swift]

intruder mode heals you as well right? so isnt it also somewhat of a buff

[lapis widget]

It does?

[grave saddle]

I'd assume so.

[lapis widget]

Interesting,never knew

[grave saddle]

Well, they mean at the start of every level.

Not in-level.

[lapis widget]

Ah right

Resets health

[misty swift]

yea

start with sickles only, but also full health, so unless you happen to have morale and/or more than 100 HP it could be considered a buff

specially if you're good enough with the weapons you find easily

[grave saddle]

Most of the levels are decently accessible with intruder mode activated.

Others you'll have to scrounge for.

[lament dawn]

intruder mode is cool

[strange axle]

hey

what are the secret achievements?

[grave saddle]

Play and find out. Ahohoho.

I don't remember.

So... That's literally my advice.

Sorry.

[strange axle]

[lapis widget]

Some secret rooms

[strange axle]

ok

[grave saddle]

But I have every achievement, found them all somewhat naturally.

[strange axle]

well, i guess when i try to do the completionist achievement i guess i'll stumble onto those

[grave saddle]

I will say there is significance to the basketball hoop on the side of the farmhouse in E1M2.

[strange axle]

figured

but i didn't find any basketball

[grave saddle]

Look harder.

[strange axle]

👀

ok, found it

didn't even have to watch a guide for it

well, i guess i'll try and find the other some other day

[west sedge]

don’t tell people about that secret it ruins weapon progression lmao

[grave saddle]

Ah, to hell with weapon progression.

This is achievement hunting at this point.

[west sedge]

i didn’t care about all secrets and whatnot on my first playthrough

[crimson folio]

implying the riveter secret before it doesnt

[west sedge]

I basically just sat down and played the entire game in a dark room

[grave saddle]

Clearly you were not a DOOM player.

[west sedge]

you get the sword and crossbow lo

[west sedge]

i’ve played most doom games on UV MAX I just went for an immersive experience

I got secrets whenever I could find them but I never went really out of my way to find all of em

cero miedo is the best way to play dusk

[barren stream]

telefrag?

[strange axle]

Yep

Not as hard as i thought it would be

[barren stream]

you could just skip him for a better time

[strange axle]

I know but i was going for the achievement

[misty swift]

whats a telefrag?

[lapis widget]

Killing someone by teleporting into them

[misty swift]

...huh??

[sleek agate]

If you teleport into a spot another person happens to be occupying, the person who was initially there fucking explodes, this has been a thing since Doom way back in 1991 afaik

[mild ginkgo]

two solid objects cannot occupy the same space!

[barren stream]

hi

[grave saddle]

Did you finish the level?

[vague temple]

yes i beat the horses

[grave saddle]

Did you finish the level?

[vague temple]

yes

2:37

[grave saddle]

I mean.

Level select is a thingy.

Could just go into the campaign section and select episode two.

[vague temple]

i am

[grave saddle]

It won't bar you.

[vague temple]

the things dont show up

[lapis widget]

yea,time to start ep2

[grave saddle]

... Are you going through level select?

[vague temple]

ill just start new episode

[grave saddle]

Yeah.

That's, like...

What you're supposed to do.

[vague temple]

why is level select a thing then

[grave saddle]

... For later..?

I don't see your problem with this.

[lapis widget]

to select individual levels?

[zealous hatch]

How about 3? 😎

[grave saddle]

What did you expect?

[vague temple]

wonky ass game

[lapis widget]

ok

[vague temple]

literally deletes my loadout if i go to the menu

[grave saddle]

... The select all button is a-

Wha...

[mild ginkgo]

i think you just misunderstand how the game works

[lapis widget]

You’re new to boomer shooters?

[mild ginkgo]

the episodes are all played separately

you unlock levels in level select when you beat them

[vague temple]

i know that but if i check the levels my loadout deleted

[mild ginkgo]

thats because level select is for returning to levels when you have beaten them, and is why there is a loadout menu

[zealous hatch]

You didn't saved it from the Saves menu, or that

[mild ginkgo]

you are meant to be saving your game, and loading your game, yes.

[grave saddle]

[zealous hatch]

I use level select to skipp the first episodes cutscenes 🙃

[grave saddle]

Aye, me too.

[mild ginkgo]

we have found this to be an issue with some players actually

they are so conditioned to not being able to manually save, that they simply just never save their game

[grave saddle]

Can't blame them, necessarily.

[mild ginkgo]

no definitely not

its why we added tutorial prompts for it in the switch port

[zealous hatch]

Same, i never saved until i died 5 times before finishing a level

I had the patience to almost finished it

[grave saddle]

I went in expecting boomer shooter.

So I guess I just.. Rolled with it.

[zealous hatch]

So when i save, the thumbnail pic says something about the save not being compatible or something, but it works

[grave saddle]

Die during a level? Start over.
