duke nukem 3d had great game play and could play multiplayer for hours. Hopefully since it took so long it will be even better.

Thats all I care about. The multiplayer in duke 3d was great. Fighting in cities with security cameras, holoduke, the freeze ray, etc.

If the game ever comes out and has good multiplayer I'm in.

Duke isn't 3drealms only franchise. They have plenty of successful IPs (Max Payne, Prey, etc), not to mention how many Duke releases there have been across consoles, PCs, handhelds and mobile phones. They've got plenty of cash flow I'm sure.

Wow, if they're going to take a promo shot you'd think they'd use anti-aliasing... and even if their engine doesn't support anti-aliasing they could render at really high resolution and scale it down in photoshop. Aliasing looks like crap, and it totally destroys the appeal of the shot.Uh I never even noticed that. You look to far into things man :D

Anyways, those baddies are so f-ing sweet. Only duke is cool enough, and man enough, to fight them. Suck it down ... :cool:

i don't care what game series or IP it belongs to, i am NOT wasting $50+ on a shitty game. and if it takes 10+ years to come out with a shitty game, you can forget me buying anything 3D Realms makes ever again. :p

If they didn't care about releasing a shitty product, they would of released it years ago and not bothered switching engines, 3 times.

This game falls under my "try before you buy" policy.

I'm not spending money on this game until I have proof that it's worth playing all the way through.

What's with all the negativity about this game? Nothing 3D Realms has done in the past should lead you to thinking this game is going to be a failure. It took Blizzard just as long to finally get around to StarCraft II, and nobody says that's going to suck. Oh man, and if StarCraft: Ghost ever came out, you would all be on your knees polishing Blizzards Knobs. They already get enough of that from the 11 Million WoW subscribers.

Agreed. 3drealms hasn't made a truly awful game yet. methinks the people saying it's gonna suck are kids who never tried Duke 3d.

Actually, I've played the originals before it went to 3D too thank you. I just don't see why people still care about this game.

It seems to me that 3DRealms gets close to finishing it, figures it's not as good as they thought it was and then scraps it and starts again... releases a screenshot and puts the hype machine back to work.

It's just silly now...

Then you'd know 3drealms has never made a crappy game, right? And the first was excellent, even if they ripped off Turrican........

The point is, if you know it could turn out good, then don't call it a crappy game, call it vaporware until it by some power of God shows up....

As long as it brings back the good old dukester in a good way, then I think it will be good after all this time. We need the voice again, too many Gordons floating around.

I also spent a LONG time playing Duke3d on Kali.. I was ranked less than 10 at some point on case's ladder (if anyone still remembers what that was) good times!

Unreal Engine 2 with the Renderer rewritten.

I say they should switch to Unreal Engine 3. Tack on another year to development.

Zellio2009

Last I check it had switched to Unreal engine 3.

The first pic kinda confirms it... Definately unreal 3 ish

That would be nice. Wikipedia still say Unreal 2, though.

That video from 2001 still looks a cool game, I would buy that if released 7 years later today, looks like fun. Most game developers would have made the game back in 01' and then still 7 years later be ready for that sequel

Makes me wonder if this is some sick joke, what if there never was or is a game ready, all these screen shots and videos are a sham, just photshops and fake vids, with no real game out there ?

Dethred

12-20-2008, 12:28 PM

Its a good thing no game in history has looked nearly as good as its promo shots. Otherwise, I'd almost be tempted to at least download it.

MasterRex

12-21-2008, 12:47 PM

By the time they release this game (should it ever be done) they'll have gone through four or five game engines. Haven't they already had to scrap two?

Prey was almost as big a delay-fest as DNF has been. It's just not as well publicized and known as the others.

GORANKAR

12-21-2008, 06:52 PM

Screenies and game play videos don't mean jack when it comes to this game. They have already prolly changed whatever engine they were using to make the videos and screenies. Until Duke Nukem Forever actually goes gold, no, until it is actually on the shelves, I am not gonna waste any time giving a shit about screenies for that game.

inotocracy

12-21-2008, 07:09 PM

It was canceled and then resurrected ~8 years later by a different developer. Duke, however, was in continuous development.

Zellio2009

12-21-2008, 08:24 PM

Duke has been in continued development just like TF2 was.

At this point, unless a demo is released and it sucks, or the game gets released and sucks, their's no reason to imagine the game will suck.

True, but after this much time has past, the expectations of the masses likely far exceed the eventual reality. If the game actually ever becomes reality, that is. ;)
