Someone forgot to mention that you can also use the RPG.

Also, did anyone happen to check if you could enter he dev console?

Well, i felt that the demo was a bit disappointing, not because it was bad, but because it was so short.

I played both the Xbox and PC versions and i got to say that the PC version runs better and looks better, but it still feels like an unfinished game. There are no real blood decals when you squish people, and the xbox versions is a tad annoying to play because there is so much motion blur and no way to turn it off! Also the fact that weapons will disappear after you drop them is really annoying, but other then that it was fun. I just really hope that the demo's problems aren't in the full game.


ReaperMan, it's the Pax demo.
8 to 9 months old, so don't worry, i am pretty sure these will be fixed to give you the perfect DNF game.

@MusicallyInspired

I did and no luck.
I think it will be available in the final game you have to turn it on in the configuration files, somehow.

It can't be the PAX demo. The PAX demo ended with Duke getting knocked down by the gunship and then he proceeds to give it the finger and the screen fades out. That's not how this demo ends.

Yes, people forget that Randy promised a demo different than PAX and IT WAS different. PAX didn't have the mines section. He did keep his promise if you take the time he said it into account :(

Judging from that, I highly doubt this is a 8-9 month old build. Even if it was the same as the PAX demo it's not very smart to release a demo for a game you're going to be releasing within a week with a 10-month old build. That's not an accurate representation. This is new stuff, folks.

Yeah, and blood doesn't make splatters on the ground or walls either. Which doesn't make any sense because blood left splashes on the ground in that old Jace Hall video of a Pigcop being blown to bits by a shotgun. People on the Gearbox forums keep saying "it's the censored PAX demo". Yeah right. You can see the same lack of blood in all the recent trailers and gameplay videos.

Nope. He promised us we'd get stuff that no one has seen before. We got the PAX East demo, straight up.

This is an area of curiosity for me... there was SO much speculation in the Demo area.
The only thing I have stored in my mind is official as that the FAC would not get the PAX demo.

No we didn't. It's not the PAX demo "straight up". The mine section wasn't in the PAX demo.

Yeah... that seems to be an obvious addition which is why the "GearBox lied" reaction seems unjustified.
If you want to play "the technical game" we DID get the PAX Demo + the mine section. Hehehe... just being difficult though, since Blackharted isn't here anymore.

Seriously, it is kind of hard for me to see so many people saying Randy/GearBox lied without quoting some stuff... My understanding was that the First Access Club was not getting the PAX Demo... and we didn't.

I think the original statements might have been "fan-evolved" maybe... like:
From "the FAC will not be getting the PAX Demo"
the fans built on to it as...
"the FAC demo is different from the PAX Demo"
to "the FAC Demo is not the PAX demo"
to "the FAC Demo is nothing like the PAX demo"
to "the FAC Demo is completely different than the PAX Demo"
and so on...
This is just speculation of the evolution though.

Yes, its the pax demo. Looks the same and hopefully it is.

The PAX demo ended with the gunship knocking Duke down and him giving it the finger. Then it fades out. That's not how this demo ends. It may have most of the same areas, but it's not the same demo. There's an extra section, which also means that this is not a 10-month old build.

Then the game (demo) is unpolished as hell, if the full game is like this i am going to be very disappointing.

I suspect they didn't do much polsihing...just tacked on that end part, fixed the major bugs and glitches, and shipped it out.

I'm still hopeful that the full game will be better. It's just lame that bugs we saw months ago are still in the game, like Pigcop heads exploding with gore falling down instead of spraying outwards.

That and some of the texture are extremely bad, like the wing that you walk on as the ship disappears (er... explodes). Also, the animations for the trees getting destroyed, water tower, building, enemies exploding, etc. are really distracting as they are so bad. I'm not usually one to complain about graphics, but when they are this bad i tend to notice.

It may have the same content, but I seriously doubt it's the same build. There would be no reason to wait this long to release the demo if it was the same exact build.

So now that the FAC demo is out, when do you think the regular demo will be out? My friend wants to play it. I know the game is out in Europe on the 10th, so it has to be in the next few days.

What makes you think they'll release the demo to the unwashed non-FAC masses before the full game is out?

I have no idea.

Anyways, I don't know if this is the official demo thread, but this time around I tried shooting off some pigcop's limbs. I know it's kind of gross, but I just wanted to see how it worked.
