Now imagine you put it back on, you can now open and read the book BUT pages 75 - 500 are blank pages. Yes folks this describes Dusk 12 perfectly. Before you start the game you will get a window for all your options video, AA, shaders etc. Now if you touch anything and I mean ANYTHING even just moving it up one that's it you have…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Took me about 5 hours to beat this game. Figuring out where to go and how to overcome bugs/poor level design and cheap enemies is a challenge in itself. I would reccomend this game to collectors of obscure FPS games.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not a bad game for the price and once you have it running ;) And if you dont mind downloading a new audio dill file! And remember this is a old game ;) Bigtime for the peeps that love odd or old FPS games!! Some Tips on getting the game running is once its downloaded is right click the game and hit Properties.Now hit Local Files and hit Verify Integrity of Game Cache. Let it download the missing files if any.(I was missing 5 files) Ok next is just in case, is run it as a Admin. You next…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game proved to be better than I expected. Before I played it I saw a lot of negative reviews of this game. The game is a little rough but despite this fact it was nice to play in it. The graphics are not the best but it does not hurt. About the sound of this game it has a weak voice acting but the sounds of weapons are correct and the game has nice music. About gameplay game has a lot of bugs, bad optimized engine and it is quite difficult but it has an interesting atmosphere resembling a…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really don't know about this game as I never played it, never opened it. It does not want to open and I have sent mail to Steam support with no answer as to why the game will not open. I have all the proper physx drivers and more then enough memory with a quad processor. Please not waste your time and money on this game like I did...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Now, I'll be the first to say but I actually LOVED Dusk 12. It's a crap game, there's no denying that - it is a really bad first person shooter but that badness is something special compared to a lot of other crap first person shooters. Orion Games have a way with developing games. While what they have made is almost universally crap, there's a huge dose of special charm to it that a lot of other bad games just can't seem to replicate. It's adorable and hilarious how it tries to be a good game,…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is one the better games from the Russian dev Orion along with Hellforces. For under $1 it's great. The Stalin Subway series is rubbish, but this game has some good ideas and charm, its no Dishonored or Crisis. It looks and plays like a 2005 era game, so expect issues when running this on modern systems. Gladly there are fixes and work-arounds to get it running really well, so use the forum and google to look for the fixes. BTW Too many 12 year olds are giving this negative reviews…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game doesn't work under Win7 You can farm the trading cards off the config tool tho... That is why I played it 70 minutes+ Do not buy this game under any circumstances!!!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not A bad Game yet certainly not a great one either. A very unusual game in its style and storytelling, Orion does there best with the material at hand , it falls under the so bad its good and when you replace the audiere Dll and install the legacy Physx drivers, it works with few CTD's.The cutscene acting is hilarious and has no regard for proper English lip syncing. As well as the ragdolls for all the Akban inmates/patients are down right weird, but with some time and patience anyone who is…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dusk 12 is an awful game, that's also plagued by some insane technical problems. Story: In Dusk 12 you play as two different characters, a soldier and a human infected with a virus which turned him into a mutant. The soldiers goal is to plow through mutants and soldiers to get a secret lab and the mutant is on a quest to figure out what happened to him. If what I described doesn't make sense, well it's because it doesn't. The story is insanely hard to follow, to the point where I actually…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good game. I don't know why do so many people hate it. I have no any issues... There was only one problem: "Not found PhysX driver", but i have installed PhysX legacy and it works now. [url=steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=694487336]"Not found PhysX driver" solution ------------------------------------------ Отличная игра, все отлично работает. Тут есть ВСС "винторез")
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awful game. Got it running with no audio but it wasn\'t worth the effort. Terrible AI, ridiculous enemies that spaz around, generic shooting mechanics and constantly running out of ammo. The only thing I did like were the mutant powers but they were fairly limited. The \"story\" is ridiculous and the voice work is absurd. It\'s definitely a very outdated game that I think would have been bad even back in 2002.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is a mix bag to me. I will admit this game is kind of a breath of fresh air from The Stalin Subway video games. I am glad that they decided to put in another idea for a game instead of milking The Stalin Subway series. Anyway I am going off topic and not talking about this game so...... here we go...... Dusk 12 is an FPS game made by the developers that brought you The Stalin Subway video games. But here's where the new fresh idea comes in..... Not only do you play as a military…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Only crashed 25 times before I got to the title Screen. The game only allows its true believers to play it, presumibly has an amazing story, and flawless gameplay. I hope one day I will be able to see them for myself.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →to me this game is a bit like a russian half life. It is very original and has some great ideas. I am stuck at the moment at a section where you have to throw cars at a helicopter. I hope i can pass this section because the game has me hooked. 8/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In Putin's Russia, games beat you. ~The sad reality There are bad games. There are very bad games. And then, there are Russian games. Not being racist, or something, but seriously, guys, you don't know the true meaning of the word “despair” until you play something like Brother 2: Back to America (Брат 2: Обратно в Америку), or Boomer: The Tripping Balls (Бумер: Сорванные Башни). It's just... it's just something you can't even explain. Let's just say that it's a part of the dark and depressive…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →See my guide on setting widescreen resolutions - https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2718669279 Dusk-12 is a charming game with a very cheap price tag. Interesting setting + aesthetic. The mutant levels aren't very fun but the FPS levels are mostly solid, and the game has its share of memorable moments. The multiplayer mode is LAN-only, but works well tunnelled through Zerotier at high pings. The maps like all of Orion's other games are taken straight from the single…

I love jank, i like going through something and finding its flaws and having a little laugh about it. this is a special case ill just list out how it would go if you decide to play this. 1. to get it running you'll have to do…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dusk 12 Competent old school FPS with a russian flavour - recommended only for the fans of the genre ( cuz you know you have to get past - bugs&B-C grade feeling ) !
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love euro jank but it's a fine line between fun and frustration in this genre - Dusk 12's combat is so clunky and unbalanced that it just isn't fun. The human levels are passable, but half of the game you play as a mutant who can only use his fists to fight and it's just a chore to get through.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dusk 12 seemed charming at first, but the gameplay is just too boring and unfinished.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A fun little eurojank FPS, most of the negative reviews are due to the game's english version not having proper patches, there's a really easy fix (as show in Jarek's review on Youtube) where you can easily fix this and entirely via steam.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The most broken game I've ever seen. Getting this to work must be a hell lot of work, that I'm not willing to do.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →How did this happen 12 times?
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A half-decent shooter that is unfortunately so broken it's literally unplayable Dusk 12 could have been one of those "its so bad its good" first person shooters if it weren't for its utterly broken and nonfunctional state. If you are lucky enough to even launch the game after installing several drivers and changing sound files, you will be bound to fairly low resolution with small aspect ratio because the game simply refuses to work at any others. Cool, you might think, I can handle that.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Suka, a real Russian masterpiece, blin!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Worth a go. It has a neat little story (kinda ♥♥♥♥ though), smooth af performance, runs on anything, cheap as hell, simple controls and compitent ai. Keep your expectations at 0 and maybe youll find somthing to kill 4 hours total.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought this game 0.67$. Can't even run it.... My pc can run The Division but can't run that freaking game...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Had no problem running this under Win 7 64 bit. Haven't played a lot yet, got a heck of a backlog to play through. Darn Steam sales! :) Downloaded the newer audio file as covered in the forums, and already had legacy PhysX installed for another title. (This doesn't replace the current version) Graphics a bit dated but serviceable, quirky enough to be interesting. Different dynamics with the two characters you play, nice change.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Positive from me, not bad for a 1€. I like games from small studios . Yes is does look junky, but am okay with that.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Graphics look quite outdated and gameplay is boring and repetitive. feels like the game hasn't been updated in years and turns into dull routine. not exciting at all and leaves you wishing for more action and creativity.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dusk 12, developed by Orion Games and published by ESDigital Games, is a first-person shooter that attempts to merge classic run-and-gun action with a gritty virus-outbreak narrative. Set in a city torn apart by a devastating epidemic that mutates its inhabitants into violent, twisted creatures, the game places players in the roles of two distinct protagonists. One is a soldier with the training and firepower expected of a military background, while the other is an infected individual who gains…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is an exercise in frustration. You'll never know if you can't find a way to progress or another script is broken. It's possible to beat with cheesing, workarounds, cheats, but better stay away and do not attempt. It's not even a normal shooter, half of the game you are playing as a monster with melee attacks and abilities. Better play Stalin Subway, this one is too jank.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Doesn't run properly on modern machines. All I'm getting is a black screen.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I enjoyed at least a bit or even pretty much some of Orion fps games like: Hellforces (my favorite), The Stalin Subway (the first one, the second is bad), They are Alive (pretty decent), and so on, but this one is bad and probably one of their worst ... The game looks unfinished and there are many bugs and many frustrating moments alongside many boring ones, also the mutant protagonist melee combat is very bad and you will carry only one weapon with him near the end of the game ... The english…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →she Dusk on my 12 till I Stalin Subway
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Crazy, delirious story, ambitious but rather incoherent. The engine isn't good enough by far, though they put much effort into it. Even so, using the SC sicheats trainer from gamecopyworld, I was very entertained and *had* to finish it to see it all, and that's not bad at all. So I'll recommend it only for those that enjoy the weird and chaotic like me, braving the ugliness and warts.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Doesn't work on Windows 10.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →it crashed on start and i coud not find a way around it!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Generally I don't mind these low budget FPS titles, I actually seek them out because I find them kind of fun in a B-movie type of way. Dusk-12 however, is actually pretty bad and frustrating to play. I was drawn by the premise of playing 2 characters, The first chracter you play is a mutant called "Artem" (?) who attacks mostly with punches and has some special abilities such as bullet time, seeing in the dark, enhanced speed and later on a shock wave attack. The second character is a soldier…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Thanks to steam refunds, it's now worth it to purchase this (espicially on sale). You've nothing to loose if you can't get it to run on your system. I'm able to run this on win 7 x64 bit (runinng compatability mode for win 98/ME +admin). On a multi-monitor setup (running off of 1 GFX card) I'm forced to play in windowed mode or else disable my auxillary monitors to enable fullscreen - otherwise I get a window with just black. I was previously running two GFX cards with only main monitor…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Where do I start this abomination of a game this is one of the most broken buggy games I've played in a very long time. I feel like the developers were a big fan of Crossfire and they're like let's make our own Crossfire game but let's make it a thousand times worser. It doesn't take much to please me that's why I'm willing to play Trash games like this but if you're going to have trash games like this they should be free. If you're going to put a price tag on it then get off your lazy azz and…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Игра выглядит, как ранний доступ, более того, была плоха уже даже на момент выхода: вышла она в середине 2000х, уже ПОСЛЕ первого, и ДАЖЕ ВТОРОГО Half-Life. Вот серьёзно: амеры что, "козырные", что могут договариваться друг с другом насчёт использования движков игр (DooM, Quake, Half-Life, Unreal - кто только не брал и не использовал эти движки!), а наши не могут, или что? Геймплей: тягучий, оба героя неотзывчивы, медленны. Мутант двигается, как перекачанный орк - огромный, неповоротливый,…

Theres no quest markers or anything and i managed to get lost every 5 minutes, The flow of this game just might be the worst ive ever played it has some pretty…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The premise is somewhat interesting and the game's atmosphere definitely oozes low-budget janky charm, which is why it got me interested in the first place. BUT In gameplay, this is just an incredibly incompetent slog to go through. Enemies are bulletsponges that usually spawn in big groups. You have to dump half a magazine into 1 basic bad guy unless you go for the head. Even the auto shotgun requires about 3 point-blank shots in the chest for 1 simple dude to go down. And bad dudes are…
