HorrorStyle: "The former employee of 3D Realms Mark Skelton aka Marks not only has posted the Duke Nukem Forever high-res 3D renders, but he also has revealed some details of the development situation. Whilst technically 'in development' for well over a decade, it would appear from his words that it has only been in the past two or three years that any real progress been made. Of course, that's just a single opinion, but nevertheless it sheds some light on the DNF mystery."
Duke Nukem Forever originally began its life as a sidescroller instead of a shooter back in 1996, and that canceled version has just been leaked.
Very cool, but i don't know how real this is... I'll check it out later to find out.
Duke Nukem Forever, the troubled FPS from Gearbox and 3D Realms, has been restored to more traditional 90s shooter thanks to a sweeping “remaster” mod
kinda of a misleading title.
Mod features:
Sprinting removed and faster player movement
Jump height increased
Swim speed is much faster
Player can now hold breath underwater for 45 seconds instead of 15
Weapon rebalance and screen shake when shooting removed
2/4 weapon limit completelly removed
Quicksaves (F5 by default)
Depth of Field removed and new post processing effects
Driving sections are now in first person perspective
yw.
It is pretty amazing, I remember being so hyped that they covered the Duke theme back when it happened haha. I still quite enjoyed Forever though personally.
It is great, you should check out Eric Calderone - Duke Nukem meets metal .. thats proper as well
Duke Nukem Forever, the infamous and controversial FPS from 3D Realms, apparently looked much better before launch, as modders discover various cut features
Wow, that advanced lighting makes a huge difference to the visuals. I get that Gearbox tried to slap everything together and release a finished product. But it seems like they cut out a lot of content that would have made the experience more enjoyable. That's a shame.
Same, the AI could be pretty dumb but the bosses were fun. I thought the levels (mostly) got better later in the game too.
they must of needed to start from scratch many times. technology has changed alot since 97.
Alot duke articles...guess everyone likes duke.
" You're an inspiration for birth control baby"
I kinda hope it never comes out, just for the sheer humor of its legacy.
As for the above poster who says all former Duke games were terrible, I disagree. Duke Nukem 3-D was pretty awesome for its time, not to mention it pushed the censorship boundaries. The originals were something to behold in their era as well. I miss those old PC games like Duke and Commander keen. Classics man, don't hate. They paved the way for today's games.
If MS announce Duke is coming to xbox 360 only i might have a heart attacked.
dog meat you gonna be the first person on my haunt list.
