A demo is good even way past a released game. Usually at the end of the demo would be info on where and how to purchase the full game. I found out about DN3D after playing the demo a year after its release.

Gearbox obviously has to do something big on April 1st, it's in the spirit of Duke, so why not make it the demo? I remember polymer was officially announced April 1st 2009 (although plagman said it was a directx 10 renderer instead of openGL in that case)

Although you're right that the majority of non FAC members won't care/will be really annoyed.

What exactly does the DEMO have to do with piracy? The game will be pirated whether a demo is put out or not.

I have to say though, I am fairly annoyed with GBX, during the original PAX reveal they were going on about how everyone has to try a demo to believe it is real, that they will release a public demo as well and that it is an important thing to do. Yet, the game is coming out in a month and a half, and we still don't have the promised demo. This demo should have happened 4 months ago!

AND, we have yet to hear anything new about the demo, see any Official gameplay videos other than the trailer, very little news about the multiplayer, and that's about it.

I too am getting concerned. There are posters everywhere in Game for Portal 2, Gears 3 and other titles that will come out after April the 3rd and no mention whatsoever of Duke.

I'm almost positive they have something planned, I've been right on everything else so far, we'll see about this...

Unfortunately people will, but I think people should show some respect for The King.

If the demo was released 4 months ago, people litterally would have played the level segments to death, and when it comes to playing those bits in the actual game they'd be bored as hell!

Next week (April 25th) FAC release of demo. Demo for everyone else April 1.
April 1 FAC release of demo, everyone else gets it a week later: April 8.
Sound good?

Be persistent, keep bugging them (in person) until you get it.
