well fix it
shhh
๐ 
Spend 10 minutes looking for AE card in my wallet from QC and of course i've already placed it on my desk. Just out of the peripheral vision grrr.
Yup happens all the time
We're going to be giving AMID EVIL Episode 5 early early access to the best of the best lurkers in https://t.co/KUTKrIkk4g this weekend.
Act like somebody told ya ๐ https://t.co/oYmutXS57z
i want it

gewd
probably gonna happen around when game night starts
will work the same as last time most likely (users soldier rank and above will see a new beta test channel and can request for game access there)
but i want it noooooooow
i mean i get off work right around when game night starts anyway so ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
It's been the weekend for 17 hours?
the beta will start at leon o'clock
I honestly don't understand 24 hour time, I know the method is to add 12 to the 12 hour time but it's still weird.
Yeah it'
i can do either just fine
24 is the official format over here but i've got a bunch of US based friends
Thank goodness New Zealand only has two timezones.
One for the mainland and one for some island territory we have fairly far away.
we just have 1 thankfully
We might as well only have one to be honest.
Ok I think we're all set!
https://t.co/KUTKrIkk4g members of Soldier rank and above can start testing AMID EVIL Ep 5... tomorrow!
See you there \o/
Sick.
yeah you a RAT
sniff sniff
it doesn't take long to get to soldier
It won't take long for public release either, I'll be patient ^^
If you just got rat recently you probably won't make it before the build goes public
Ep 5 looks like the most EVIL episode in AMID EVIL so far
EVIL is good
I'm excited for the hottest wettest episode of Amid Evil.
lmao nice
Sooo when can we test this sexy beast?
some time today
presumably when dave gets up to hit the button
not 100% on that last bit so don't hold me to it :p
Cool cool I work till 3 today
We're all going to be Hot & Wet

Remember to give us your best non-mesoamerican feedback
this is the metal zone
or bone zone
bone zone AE ep when
we only listen to linkin park here๐
And if you play on the hardest difficulty, plz don't whine about it being hard lol
ep 7
or is that 7's and i just spoil-- yep
#metal๐ค
does it deal damage though
No
mechanical piranhas you mean
those too
we already have too much tonsil stone in dusk
๐ค
that's either tonsil stones or ulcers in the flesh
One of the secret levels of ep3 uses it real well
in my dusk?!
cease your investigations immediately
we have dispatched a silencing squad to your residence
don't resist, it'll only be more painful
i've got a rifle bich
ur suicide squad bois just failed their mission
did I do an grammar error?
Hello fellow New Blood discord users, how are you today?
I sure am having fun absolutely not figuring out what ep 3's second secret level is.
ok then you'll get it later
you FOOL
viscont ruining shit, as usual
thx drake
is the code for the beta branch the same as last time
ye ik just askin
cant wait to play it
How about you get some chinese takeout instead of going to bed
AE sushi episode when
nani
bone zone first
what about the crystal episode
it was cut
ROLL DA BONES
remember
now it's the crystal meth episode
missed opportunity to have some epic steven universe references, smh
where you gotta sling meth on the streets of AEplanet
meth planet for Celestial Claw when
lol
also did anyone notice we got the moon now
yup
cool
Nibiru when
also did anyone notice the suns were broken
the blast wave wasn't setting enemies on fire
now it do
yup they were kinda useless tbh
now they AINT
that's a nice piece of gray poo ya got there leon
er maybe click the link
๐
oh there it goes
whoa laser traps
yeah they look cool
better redo that part Leon, lasers go in a straight line
no they dont ๐
bad game btw, level design too linear and action oriented
Do they instakill ya?
good
noice
I like it when enviromental hazards actually mean something
i like first person platforming so this ep should be really good
these mean ouch
yeah there's not heaps of platforming though
the 3rd level has the most
a lot of people dislike platforming in 1st person games
so we didn't make them too crazy
like ROTT13's "the room"
dont know what "the room" is
mario level inAE when
lmao it was e2L2
never played rott
everyone hated it because of the jump pads and traps
I don't mind first person platforming.
well if you like first person platforming
it should be right up your alley
the grand vomitorium level is insane
Just gimmie a good ledge grab and some sort of safety net and I'm all for it.
ppl dont have problem with platforming in Rott13, problem was with clunky and buggy jumping mechanics imo
Good first person platforming comes down to good jumping mechanics and ledge grabs and shit.
I love Mirror's edge for how refined it's movement is for example, same with DOOM 2016.
I actually prefer 1 alot more
When's AE getting wall running, or is that reserved for AE 2 Midnight Chinese edition.
actually titanfall 2 is ok, but 1 had way better levels
so you could actually use the movement
but all in all they got it wrong I reckon
the levels were never 100% awesome to play as both titan and pilot, it was either one or the other
I can't wait to see what you make after AE that's for sure.
we'll make a game where you play as a potato
sitting in a cupboard
that's it
$9.99
Whoa, that actually sounds like a neat anti game.
no lol
ye there was a p long period where these shitty ironic "simulator" games were flooding steam
cos of goat simulator
they were complete trash but people let them slide because "they were ironic!!!"
But what if instead of a potato it was Leon's Midnight Chinese food.
And you have to hope Leon doesn't come and eat you.
how about this masterpiece
From the creators of Rise of the Triad and legendary game maker 3D Realms comes Bombshell, an action shooter game. Bomb disposal technician turned mercenary for hire, Shelly "Bombshell" Harrison must strong-arm her way across 4 planets in an Unreal Engine-powered galactic adv...
$34.99
248
anyone played that
better than the prequel tbh
it took so much work.... so.... so much
issat girl duke nukem??????????
there was big patch in the works i heard
grayfixs
they were my idea
Did you get paid to work on Bombshell though, or was it ROTT 13 all over again?
yeah I got paid
so it wasn't a loss
it was just a lot of hard work
and silly decisions
I can imagine.
imo if it was simplified (a lot) it could have been really neat
what do you mean by simplified?
the game is just too complicated
there's like all these weapon trees, quests, dialogue, etc etc
didn't really need to be there
originally the gameplay was like a FPS but top down
which imo would have been more fun
you could also punch dudes into world hazards
like spikes and stuff, it never happened
aw
punch thru certain walls etc
environmental kills are the coolest shit
yeah
she had this big fucking FIST and it would have been awesome
seriously tho the amount of work that went into it
especially graphics
Leon, do you know something about that mythical patch 1.3?
its gonna be released someday?
Bombshell is one of the biggest tragedies of the decade
So much wasted potential
Also patch 1.3 might aswell be a fairy tale at this point
I doubt it will happen honestly
simon spent about a month on this garage scene
the poster is super high res
*world map
burying the trend was like that one project by andrew right?
yeah his band
band?
yeah ie play music with people on stage
i just know the name from a duke e1l1 cover
is dat some bombshell
o yes
hahah
bumshel
bombshell legit had the most intense material/tech art ive ever done
it was an awesome learning experience
boneshell
Bomb in the Shell
Boobshell
lmao
Yo sick Bladerunner chacter portraits
Corner
yeah that DLC was cut
there was going to be a fourth episode called Development Hell
cancelled?
cut and then put in AE ep5
nein
why the fuck not
this is game design platinum right here
man lasers are in everything we do
I seriosuly do not remember
Did Dave write that
what, you guys didn't throw shit at the wall to see what sticks?
lmao
Back when your talents as doom modders weren't going to waste
too bad I'm making you executive producer
executed producer
You just want the fantasy of having a prouducer who pays you on time
How come that sorta effort isn't going into AE
Was that cut?

idk why i have this uploaded
oh you probably wanted to compare or something
fuckin kismet
Yeah some classic cancer
AE, coming to Frag West
will we get a track on Andrew's channel?
Good idea
๐ซ
this is a robbery, put the episode 5 in the bag
well it was worth a try
ep 5 available to everyone pretty soon probably
release ep 5 right now or ill shittalk the games colour theory
whoa
the colour selection and lighting in episode 3 is garish and overly bright and the outdoor areas in episode 1 looked too washed out
๐
i dont actually know anything about colour theory
i feel let down
i expected a hardcore pretentious art student beat down
couldnt do that even if i tried
โญ for effort
thank
http://twitch.tv/tastyspleentv jehar from tastyspleen is streamin' amid evil (avain-approved shilling)
yeet
oh FUCK jehar's playin AE
he just beat e1 and is starting on e2
what's his opinion on it so far?
he loves it a lot, though had concerns about some of the progression of the later episodes i think
iirc something about them getting a little more linear?
he should like ep5 in that case i hope
this is his second playthrough on evil difficulty



Oh really
yup
is anything even real?
๐คท
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
no, new blood is definitely real
okay so I'm curently speaking to simulacra people
^
HOW DARE YA
Who do we message for Ep 5 access?
that'll be explained when things start happening
spoiler: we won't push anything out till spacemen games are done
so chill and go play some spacemen
i have betatesting branch from previous beta, it is still usable?
nah, branch is gonna be changed
Tis all good
I'm loving the color theory of Episode 5
Yeah man it looks pretty Hot & Wet
Looks pretty DanK bro
reminder: we have professionals on the job
what group of people are making dusk and what group are making ae?
y vidogam not 4 free? what?
did some ignorant dumb shit change my discord name in this server?
dusk = david
amid evil = indefatigable
also i dunno
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
WAS YOUR NAME OFFENSIVE? MIGHT BE WHY
You were the guy who whined about the price, so I made a meme out of it
jab's a funny fella
for your ignorant dumb ass behavior
Dude epic
Uhhh....

We probably don't want your money to begin with ๐
good for you brutha
Damn that is a legit certification
nah id rather pirate it now
.mute @toxic ridge
Jabronii-chan#6969 rochambo#3365 has been muted from text and voice chat.
You'll stop now

Thanks babe
Can't handle the MEMES
Memes are everywhere soon enough they'll come back
Jab's hot & wet
Oh my
I'm sorry I just have to keep referencing that
I know that
Temperature feeling needs to be included like haptic feedback for episode 5
Dusk Ep 3 and Amid Evil Ep 5 has special new technology and engine support to help activate your 5 senses when you play them both
The Future is Now 
I'll be camping on the beach next week with family so it'll be hot and wet
Good time to stop enjoying real life and load up my wife's laptop
And play ep 5
That is how one do at beach
Yas
I'll move into the Paris Catacombs and play Dusk Ep 3 when it comes out
The True Experience
@woeful saffron haha
Has there even been murmurs about adding any weapons to the game? It's got some amazing weapons don't get me wrong
Haven't heard anything about new weps from Amid Evil but for Dusk there might be a BFG type weapon
Like some of my most favorite ever ..to the planet launcher is in my top 5 now and I'm an old mann
havent they said that dusk wont be getting any new weapons
yep
I swear I read something about a BFG type thing, no promises obviously
weapons are set
So don't take me for granted
True on that
never really liked the bfg style weapons
cos if a designer expects you to use them, and i dont want to use it because im saving up ammo for it, then theres a massive difficulty spike
Yeah a lot more consideration will be put into it foresure
Oh god that's right terrifying
pain
I'm sure he hears you yelling Hello
leon its 9 am wake up and give us ep5 u dingus
9am in new zealand
damn early morning
for me its 10 30 pm
wowza
this face should explain reasons as to why
cause hes in gamedev
I go to bed at 1am and wake up at 7am
Leon is a wimp.
savage af
and summer only makes it worse
its almost midnight in Poland
gib the AE

Yeah Sen's Fortress
can we get an entire level that's just a tl;dr version of the journey from Firelink to Anor Londo?
That looks like the start of the autorunner, lootbox section of the game
ahh yes, you probably just swipe down and slide under them
where is the beta access leon you said there would be beta access D:
I don't think I ever beat the 4th Episode
i mean you should be
that shit was so hard
you're no BEEG JAHN but you should get acess
Leon's still sleepin
he only rises when innocent blood is spilled in his name
granted I can't say I don't sleep till 2pm
i cant seem to wake leon form cryogenic sleep remotely today for some reason, i've asked his uncle to do it manually for me so it might take a while
man it could take hours to round up some orphans to throw in the wood chipper
this is lame
yeah ๐
anyways good luck with waking him up, I go to BED
3 am for me...i can do it
me and leon have to turn our beta launch keys at the same time
tell your launch keys to have more confidence
believe in themselves
then they can be alpha chad bros
just activate his mind control chip
you know the one you install in all new blood employees
memes activated
meme control
same beta branch or new keycode?
942 mb downloading
ask admins for the code and if you want to be put in the beta chat.
oh original code still works?
yep
at least i'd hope I'm not downloading Ep 4's beta lmao
dang, i'm not soldiery enough for the soldier club
if you already used the SEKRIT KODE then just opt back into beta branch and restart steam
yep but like I said pm lain to access secret chat
im gonna try it later
i'm gonna try it RIGHT NOW
HF
:(
๐ซ
My money was not enough, now the next episode requires a blood sacrifice.
Truly, thematic.
nerddd

you'll need to sacrifice your significant other to get into the arcane expanse beta test
Ouch
I pm'd Lain but he's not answering
ok I'll set you up
sweet
Hey Leon i also pmยดd Lain but no response
Lain dropping the ball as usual
Yeah, Lain seems to have gone AFK.
Fired.
@crystal spruce do you have the code?
pm me if not
if you guys can't get hold of lain or avain pm me, it's all good
^^
Some more AMID EVIL Episode 5 environments for #screenshotsaturday
#UE4 #Gamedev #indiedev
Beta test: https://t.co/MoD2grTNA1 https://t.co/OzcQ1oeFOT
Can i please beta test ep 5 โค โค โค
IS THERE GOING TO BE A BIG JOHN IN AMID EVIL?
the great old one's influence grows
what's the new ep called
off to uncle dad's house it is then
fuck the forges
uncle dad's house sounds better
the forges have the piss pool
I just realized standing in water in the hub regens ur HP
yes
yes indeed there's some writing on the wall that tells you that
the sacred waters of the shrine heals all wounds

what the FUCK are these enemies
i love them
i wish to hug them and protect them from harm
whom?
all of them
in the forges
except for the ghosty bois
they get no hugs
fuck em
ask Leon the proffesional
i'll just shut up
Why?
I put you in there
No beta testing for me?๐
if you ask real nicely
Mr.Manniacc could I have access to the beta for episode 5 please ๐
more feeling
I have bought the game for the second time for a friend just because I like the game that much and he hasn't stoped playing since then
These screenshots for the new Amid Evil episodes look amazing, keep up the good work!
i'm screwing with ya, i'm not a dev ask @night ginkgo
you'll get it soon enough
won't be long till ep5 is out though
๐ here since the first announcement that amid-evil is joining the disc still no soldiers rank well...
Gotta wait then
if you want to rank up just participate in the chat
outside of meme factory that is
they need some dirt on you before you get access
just post your deepest darkest fears here where dave oshry can read them
we actually did have a build of the game leak before we started doing that
smdh someone actually pm'd me then used my niceness to leak a build
what is the world coming to
What's the content of the beta, the whole chapter or just a portion of it?
it's the whole episode
The whole thing boi
Cool
who do i need to DM to get access to the beta testing chat
I think it's lain or avain
Yep either of them
suggestion: make slider for message size, big are too big and medium are too small for me
i know its nitpicking ๐
hint - during EU daytime you'll want to DM me and during US daytime you'll want to go for lain
Woooo beta test open? I WANT
Pm avain
still possible to beta test new level?
need to have a rank of soldier or above
how do I achieve that? I am new to this server and bought AE after playing it at Quakecon
Thank you
Yeah, it won't be long though
You likely won't be able to participate this round if beta testing
But if your active enough, the next one for sure
Cool, no worries. Love the game btw
Real tempting to play it once Ep5 is properly out ngl
Yeah it will be more polished. Few things we're just finishing up
And thanks @daring condor glad you like it ๐
Godspeed, from the peak I've taken, it looks fucking nuts
I'm regretting not picking up an amid evil shirt; is there a place online I can buy one?

May I please have access to the Episode 5 Beta, lest I be not worthy, as I am a simple heretic! ๐
We're only letting solider rank and above at the moment.
It won't be long till the actual episode is out
Well, it does say 'or be really nice to us' on Step 3! ๐
And I'm really, really nice!! ๐
ow
So we're just being careful
wow didnt know that
lol there are 6 soldiers
Sorry man but if you stick around, you can beta test next version
There's way more than 6
Can't be nice 
episode will be coming out very soon anyway
Oh okay, just six online?
plus everyone above soldier can as well
This weekend coming up
Oh cool, so E5 is in a week or two from then then ๐
Will you guys be adding Australian servers to DUSKWORK by the way?
already is one
you'll wanna ask that in the dusk or duskworld channels
im not sure if dusk devs look here
Sure but not tonight sorry
wow, the secrets are well hidden. I look everywhere and get to the end and find that I miss so many!
it's awesome. such a Doom vibe with an air of dark mystery
lol, right as I write that I find a secret in a wall that just says "el zee wuz here"
:๐ฅ:
fuck e2m2 with secrets
theres a secret that you only have one chance to get
then you cant access it unless you restart the level
the toughest one is at E1M1
o ye the caves there blend in too well
tfw not being a soldier
I am but, I have work and I`d rather wait for the polished version, best of luck luck to the QA team ๐๐ป
next episode is "a lots of purple" ๐ค
What do you make of this?
its peanut butter named Unreal, its ok..i guess
Reference or Bootleg?
candy powered by UE
THE FUTURE
UE4, look at that graphics
Hot AE Leak next episode is going to be purple flurp themed
oh dear lord
thats a nice axe, i envy you
How do I know what rank I am so I can e-beg for amid evil access?
NVM I read the community rules like was mentioned above.
hey mods im looking for that beta access
@upper badger need to be soldier rank. sorry bro
dave does have a weird sense of humor sometimes
/memes
but the soldier rank requirement is real im afraid
fair enough
I feel like it's fair to say that this episode will blow your expectations out of the water
Sounds about right
so which mod should i "PM" to play beta episode 5
You have to be at least soldier rank on the server
sorry my dude
you can take a look at #ranks to get a bit more info on ranks
it's ok
Is there any way to check progression, just out of curiosity? I've been Rat for quite some time now, but have only been participating in discussions actively every couple weeks or so.
good point
I see. Thanks for the info Fourteen. Just curious if it makes sense to push for soldier before Ep5 goes public, super hyped for the episode

Awesome!
I donโt have AE yet but is this game mostly bug proof?
How smart is the enemy ai?
Our qa team knows what they're doing
ai is very good
they strafe around you n shit and flank you
but they arent overwhelmingly intelligent
So they are generally smart but not like swat team enforcement
We don't want them to be too intelligent as that would hurt gameflow
Indeed
if your thinkin about getting it
i would say that the combat is the best in any FPS game ive played, only next to classic doom
but the level design is no where near as good as something like dusk, they are very much built for gameplay first and being a believable place second
also keep in mind that there wont be any mod support in the foreseeable future
Are there level secrets like in Dusk ?
yes there are a lot of secrets
Cool
dont expect to be seeing entire new areas in secrets like in dusk tho
theyre more often than not hidden rooms with items in
The ai is predictable but the attacks are always quite different and alwaya require different strategies including weapons and environments. And this new episode the enemies are radically different and all pertain to different styles of combat
The AI has undergone some tweaks and iirc is still tinkered with a bit to make enemies more distinct from one another and add some more depth to the encounters, but especially as of the last patch, the AI is doing a great job at keeping you on your toes
I honestly hope the level design gets better, but episode 4 was a step in the right direction.
the leveldesign is OKAY in ep5 guys. Trust me.
Possibly unpopular opinion here, but considering that AE is going for an imaginative, surreal setting with Hexen and Heretic influences, I feel like they're doing a really good job when it comes to level design.
yea the aesthethic is good, with the whole high fantasy surrealism angle
its just that the actual design is very built for purpose
and it doesnt get as creative as something like dusk or doom 2
While it can be a bit unconventional layout-wise, I can think of at least one memorable thing in each episode, and that's what sets it apart from other games. Yeah I agree.
Although quite a few of the Doom 2 levels are also very much built for purpose imo
im not sure how much i can talk about ep 5 without gettin in trouble
just 
but the level design is to the same standard as the other episodes for levels 2 and 3, but level 1 is very good
ill say no more
hello are you breaking NDA mr doritoburrito
no mr jabronni charonni
(i dont think anyone cares about what you say, just dont go describing the levels in detail or showing pics)
If I had to choose one area I liked the least on initial EA release it would be the enemy AI, but they pretty much fixed everything I disliked about it with the latest public build, changing up the behavior of ranged enemies, strafing etc. Great to hear that everyone agrees Ep5 is really cool.
Yeah
we arent gonna knock your door down
for talking about how great ep5 is
thats like
Yas
reverse marketing
i think that would be illegal
im sure youd get away with it tho, u gotta keep a tight lid on spoilers
just dont spoil the boss or big moments and you're fine
aight
It sounds lit


Well, I join the "Ep 5 is fantastic" chorus
Yeah
It's also quite hard
Probably
And I'll leave it at that
The enemie gifs look cool
They look hard
Especially the one with the grappling hook.
That should be interesting in gameplay
heh, I was musing to myself yesterday that I really like how AE is doubling down on the abstract fantasy aspect rather than just trying to make realistic castles/dungeons/whatever
it's a weirdo magical world; it can bend the rules of what's realistic ;)
also E3 has hella sense of place, IMO
Yeah, level-design-wise, Ep3 is pretty epic
I just didn't enjoy it as much as the other episodes cuz of the spongy rock dudes, but that changed with the hp rebalance.
i think i only played it post-rebalance -- those guys can't handle a planet to the face :>
@hearty maple For a split second I thought that was a Rick cosplay.
Lol wow
Goddammit James
Just replaying AE on Evil to get ready for the Ep5 release and noticed this: The message next to the switch revealing the golden key in E3M1 says "3 switches revealS the key". Literally unplayable.
hehe I bet someone's gonna get sent to bed without supper
No midnight Chinese
Btw, are there any significant changes apart from Ep5 that are gonna be released with the next update? I imagine remembering something about an invert axis controller fix and some more AI tweaks.
High fantasy setting with low poly, memorable and imaginative level design and an aesthetic inspired by Hexen and Heretic and the gameplay of Unreal
The one complain i heard was that the AI made enemies to b line towards you a lot, but I also heard that there was an AI overhaul
The gameplay of Unreal
You should be promoted to shillboi because you just convinced me to not back off at all
Yeah they've done a swell job improving AI
I really liked Unreal. I played it for the first time like last year. Couple annoying stuff but that game was fantastic
Sure is
Amid Evil really catched my attention... because of the logo
its very Heretic game with Unreal elements
I watched some gameplay last month and decided to get it when I had the dosh
i higly reccomend this game, same for Dusk
Inspiration wise it really feels like it's very own thing and its awesome
I already have dusk. Amazing game too
Yeah, they look very different gameplay wise
AE is great fun.
I have been away and is ep 5 testable yet?
Yeah, just ask an admin or Leon to let you in on it.
they shouldn't be, none of that code was changed
let me see if i can send a gif of this
my bad i had a video playing but are the weapons ment to fire this slow? @night ginkgo
no
all weapons fire at this speed.
try messing with the frame cap
it does some really weird stuff at around 130fps
I'm still not sure why, it's some very weird unreal engine stuff

how can an engine be real if our eyes aren't real
oof
i'll bet these aren't even real bears
explain that, science!
*opens hood of bear, engine is missing*
and like the real thing, the bear spontaneously combusts
the finest soviet engineering
dont forget that you can shoot them upon unsuspecting enemies with cannons
then they land with parachutes
bearachutes
Didn't they have those in red alert 3?
I think they did
it was a unit that could shoot some land units accross a distance
never played it myself but my friend showed it just because :D
]maybe[
[]shit its evolving[]
[i'd better shut my face before leon evolves my ass out of this channel]
never
The real xaser would use ampersands
