Duke Nukem Forever ditches the common trend for big team battles in favour of 8 players maximum. Is this going to be enough for today's gamers?
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.
The multiplayer won't really be a success anyway, I don't see why having fewer players would affect the multiplayer. The multiplayer could be absolute quality but these games never win over the cod crowd
Well 8 players worked for Gears of War, just so long as the map design and gameplay is up to scratch, then Duke has the potential to deliver a quality mp experience.
Like stated before me, it will depend on the game if the player amount works. In BFBC2 64 is a blast , but 8 friends playing against each other is fun too.
Perfect Dark 64 was 4 players and 8 NPC back in the day. Duke Nukem 64 had 4 players. You can play competitive multiplayer in single player stages lol and players would rotate to a different part of the level to keep up with other players near by and including NPCs.
Is it 8 players on pc too?
