After what seems like an eternity Duke Nukem Forever is finally close to release. But do we really need it?
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.
What a terrible question. Yes, we do. We need more fun non-serious games to lighten the mood in a pretty dull, stale and uncreative genre. Duke Nukem has always been a series that on one hand is completely ludicrous, and so bad that it's just awesome, or solid shooters that are decent solid titles by their own rights. These games always have me grinning from beginning to end. His male chauvinism, his machismo, adolescent, cheesy and sexist nature and one liners make it impossible to miss out on. It will also serve as a nice throwback to the 90's where games weren't so diplomatic and full of complete tossers and petty arguing like it is now. Duke Nukem is what gaming needs to be reminded of the whole purpose of the medium - to have FUN. The only other series to have really done this to me recently is Saints Row. Not perfect titles, but so damn fun and full of things to do, it's hard not to like.
YES!! (would be better is if Bruce Campbell voiced it though)
Haven't we already answered this question a couple of times now?
Yes,yes we do. ;)
Hail to the king baby
nope.
