Duke Nukem Forever - Teaser TOMORROW!
« on: December 19, 2007, 09:00:20 am »
Did anyone ever think this day would come?! Apparently a teaser trailer is being released tomorrow at around noon CMT. This of course doesn't indicate that the game is finished or even close...but it's the first new media in years. They also released a teaser screenshot:

Read a joke about this, how in Halo IV the Master Chief will remove his helmet and reveal he's actually Duke, thus you've actually been playing Duke Nukem Forever all this time :p

Take it as you will

Hopefully this won't end up like Prey (IE Really pretty good but only about 3 hours long) :p But then, I withold anything until I see at least a demo :D

Haha!

It actually looks a lot like Prey... I think it's using the same engine.  I like it, in a cheesy sorta way.  But my expectations weren't that high. ;)

Damn, this is only just* too late for me to actually give half a shit about it. Poor Epic.

the sad thing is, by today's standards the graphics (specifically the render of Duke in the screenshot) are very behind the times.  I never expected to see it so polygonial... also, what's with game trailers these days refusing to give much insight into how the game might actually play?

I think people are overly critical.  Sure, the game will have taken a billion years to come out if it does, but so did TF2 and look at all the people playing it now.  It's a bit of a joke, I'll give you that, but if the game actually releases and doesn't suck, I'll sure play it.  I grew up on Duke for fuck's sake.  I remember playing the original when the tagline from the demo was that the registered version had "Over a meg of stuff!"   :D

Ah, the good old days.

Also, I believe it's using Unreal Engine 2, not Doom 3 (which Prey used).

Well...let's just hope that the gameplay is really damn good, because after 12 years they should really have something original lol. :o

ATTN: 3D REALMS
After twelve years - twelve goddamn years, guys, seriously - you need to pull out something bloody spectacular for a trailer, even a minute-long teaser. That is not what this is. I didn't think it was possible without some intense CBT but I think I actually care less about this game than I did last time I thought about it, sometime in 2005. Twelve years! Twelve years. Britney Spears' entire career has peaked and foundered while you've been working on this game. Valve have significantly altered the topography of the FPS field twice over in the time it's taken you to put out an extraordinarily underwhelming teaser trailer. What are you playing at, lads. What are you doing.

Huh, you guys all behave like you already payed for it.
I mean, if you are still following the game after 12 years, it really is your own fault if the trailer doesn't wow you enough.
