Scarletdark Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 I thought they fired everyone developing it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheonix Gamma Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 They did. Then they gave it to an actual developer and not a bunch of nerds distracted by WoW. Seriously, some dude went to their studio for a web show and the guys had huge neckbeards and lv 80 characters. That game probably hadn't been actually worked on for fucking years, man. Now people who actually make games are making it. And it...actually looks kinda good. I'm rooting for it. Not even because I want to play it, just out of principle. ULWAYZ BET ON DOOK.

Zenor Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 Looks like that if you made an excuse using DNF, you can't go around it anymore. Jokes aside, finally. It surprised me more than the possibility of it being canceled a year or so ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serephim Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 they've been throwing this around for so long i dont even care anymore Watch them release it, and watch it be medicore. Then i REALLY wont care anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheonix Gamma Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Actually it's been reported to be pretty good. It won't give free blowjobs, but I've been reading that it's a competent shooter with stupid/offensive humor. Which is what Duke Nukem was always about anyways. EDIT: "BEER" is mapped to THE ENTIRE D-PAD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1LT Worm Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Hey guys, I heard Santa Claus announce today that Dr. Dre will end up releasing his long-awaited Detox album along side DNF. It's going to be one badass year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheonix Gamma Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 It's different this time because Gearbox is finishing it. And they actually make games. Also you're a jerk EDIT: Also I liked this article: http://www.gamesradar.com/f/why-the-12-year-delay-has-actually-been-good-for-duke-nukem-forever/a-2010090612486464080 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add to his reasons, I wouldn't have cared about this game one bit if it had come out at a regular time. But now, its pretty much the only FPS I really want right now.

Aerosol Posted September 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Seeing as how I've always said that most modern shooters take themselves way too seriously, I completely agree with that article. Duke is gonna take the piss out of EVERYTHING. And it's going to be grand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strife Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Wow, that article makes a really valid point. Duke's certainly a refreshing take on what FPS protagonists are usually like these days, and indeed, the 12-year delay has become so much of an urban legend that DNF barely needs to spend anything on a marketing campaign, because everyone already knows about it. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarkSS Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 I wonder if pressing a specific direction on the d-pad affects your usage of beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smidge204 Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 I wonder if pressing a specific direction on the d-pad affects your usage of beer. I heard they are quicktime events where you need to press the D-pad the correct way to avoid spilling. =Smidge= /not really... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Winslow Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 PG is spouting all sorts of tomfoolery up in here. The development was actually well in the works at 3DR up until they needed money last year. Take2 decided to try and squeeze them to get the IP, and 3DR folded nearly all the way in order to afford the legal fees of trying to stop this. A large chunk of the DNF staff that got laid off formed another company as a means to continue working on the game. 3DR just decided to sell the rights so that there would atleast be some chance that it could be finished, rather than it dying. What everyone is seeing right now is actually 3-4 years worth of unfinished work that is being built upon and completed. Part of this effort being by the actual staff of the game under a new company, and the other part being Gearbox. (hopefully they won't leave in the retarded seesaw puzzles that were in some of the video leaks back when the 3DR staff was laid off, though.) You know, just stating the facts as they are.

Pheonix Gamma Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 PG is spouting all sorts of tomfoolery up in here. Where? Which post? I made several. THE BEER D-PAD THING IS REAL. IT'S A REALLY THING THAT WAS REALLY SHOWN IN THE REAL DEMO, REALLY. The development was actually well in the works at 3DR up until they needed money last year. What everyone is seeing right now is actually 3-4 years worth of unfinished work that is being built upon and completed. So...did they work on it for 12 years or 3-4? And when did I ever crunch any numbers? All I said is that they max leveled their WoW characters with the implication that any neckbeard with that much time could have put it towards a project in the hopes of completing it in under a decade. IT IS YOU WHO IS THE TOM, FOOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Winslow Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 So...did they work on it for 12 years or 3-4? And when did I ever crunch any numbers?

They started over 3 times Because George Broussard can't keep his mind straight for more than 5 minutes. Really, it wasn't until they got a team lead besides him that shit wasn't a schizophrenic mess. WoW hasn't been around the whole development time of it It was just a shitty joke in an interview you know. And i've been waiting like since I first played Duke 3D when I was 12 so this is a pretty big deal! I ALWAYS BET ON DUKE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
