P.S. I dreamed that we saw the Trailer this year, it was the most coolest glorious thing I've ever seen. Duke was so awesome and liberating in the trailer words couldn't describe how great it was.

I had a dream like that as well recently! It was pretty awesome! The trailer showed scenes of Duke running around shooting aliens and jumping off ledges, etc.! It was cool, but I doubt if the game will have scenes like that because they say it's only going to be in first person. I still have a hard time believing that though. There should at least be some cutscenes in the game.

Of course, George once said that Duke wouldn't be talking in DNF, but you know that's a load of crap. It wouldn't be a Duke game without the one liners! He was just pulling our legs.

That was similar to my dream, except everyone was cheering when they saw it. Other than that I Agree with you 100%, still the cutscenes would make the game stand out even better as a first person shooter by bringing it to life more. There should be cutscenes, Scott even said that in the famous DBJ Article we will be seeing Duke's story unfold through his own perspective.

Of course there's going to be one liners the Teaser had it as well.

Guys, you have an enthusiasm thread - go eat it up already! For the last time, this is the RANT THREAD, understand? We're not allowed to be pissed off over at 3DR, so this thread allows us a place to vent. If we wanted so much sunshine blown up our asses, we'd frequent the official DNF forum more, as that's all that is allowed over there. In fact, there's any number of places to let the blind, syrupy happiness flow freely, so why do you feel you have to come pour it in here? I don't really care if you agree with us or not - is it so hard to just let it be what it is? Take it to the thread it belongs in, guys!

Sorry dudes if we did that, we will continue over there then. Also they better show something substantial this year or we'll all be pissed including me and Dave. There's a limit to things as you guys know, so 3DR better do the right thing because the timing would be good or else. I also posted my last 2 comments at George's profile at 3DR, that should get his attention more now.

Unfortunately Rockman for George to actually see your messages he would have to actually sign into the 3DR forums which he hasnt done in a LONG while.

Twitter just gives him an excuse for him to not have to visit the forums so he can post pointless crap via his mobile phone and he barely even does that any more.

When I first joined George's post count on the forums was way above the average of 3 a day. Now it is nearly bellow 1 now. That says how dried up information has become.

Come on George throw us fans a bone at least. We are dying out here.
You would think the fact that the world is going through a recession that it would put a little bit more pressure on 3DR to earn some money and therefore get the game out of into the wild. I guess I thought wrong.

[Yatta]

You're so right Sharpie. I agree completely.

And I'm sick of his stupid Twitter postings (which consist mainly of food-related matters) which no one cares about.

[rockmx8]

Well you both are right this time, we need more DNF NEWS NOW. Maybe after this possible trailer this year, they will give us daily development updates like they did with PREY before release...

[DavoX]

I think they should ditch that guy who did the prey "super?" trailer and hire Monkey-junkie's. The guy that made the Black Mesa Source Trailer. Really cool! If the trailer is anything like the prey trailer then I'm already fucking dissapointed.

And yes Yatta, another year at least. They took a long time promoting Prey and DNF isn't going to be an exception.

I REALLY REALLY hope they don't have the fucking stupid idea of meeting the date on Duke3d's calendar because that is , I repeat, REALLY REALLY STUPID.

But it's a good excuse for a "delay".

[Psyrgery]

I have to "symbolically" kneel down before Yatta for his News post. I think it represents all of DNF fans thoughs:
- We are here, even though we haven't been given anything. You are not meant to give us nothing, as we aren't to give you. However we think of you, whereas you don't.

But we don't care, and we are still here, and so we will tomorrow.

First post ever on a Duke-forum but I just had to vent...
I've got Duke3d for Christmas back in 1996 when I was 10 years old, played through the first side-scroller, the second, finished Duke3d on hardest, got the Plutonium pack, no idea on the numbers of tcs I've played, Manhattan project...

Have stayed tuned now since 1997. Saw the 1998 trailer, saw the 2001 trailer, saw the teaser...

now...

if not something is delivered before the end of this year, that's 30 days from now on, DNF can just crash and burn, I've had enough. I can't take this shit anymore.

George Broussard, if I catch you playing WoW at work, I will hack your account, shard your purples, destroy your items, ruin your realm-reputation, and leave your naked heart-stone-less toon on a floating island off the cliffs of Outland.

Judging by what (little) we've seen of the current build, IMO if the game isn't out by next Fall, they will have once again missed their window. The tech will be too dated to be competitive (again).

Maybe they'll restart using id tech 6. Of course, they'll have to scrap & rewrite most of it so they can be late with that too.

Maybe they ought to just re-do the whole thing in Build and release DNF as a cheap, $5 XBLA game. That's the audience George is apparently aiming for anyway.

P.S. Running through all those news, I was astonished that the first look at Prey was 3,5 years ago. Wow.

/random dramatic nonsensical poem rant!
Like a lonely old man in front of a barely functioning microwave, we wait, as we have always waited and will continue to wait as this thick coating of tolerance we seem to have, is wrapped in large chunks of time, continuing to throw us, throw us around like unsuspecting, sleeping cows, not having a single clue that soon, we're to be pushed over in our sleep.... so that we wake... and my question to you, my fellow bovines... after this, will we be able to sleep peacefully again?.... or will we keep getting pushed over in our sleep for more small insignificant surpises?..
/end random dramatic nonsensical poem rant!

Either DNF was restarted, or 3Drealms is a lot closer to releasing DNF. We have not had any informaiton on the game since what last summer? Its been months since we have heard anything at all. To me the last significant piece of news was the teaser trailer last year.

They most likely seem to be aiming for this month afterall, the last we saw media for this game was Late September. They sure love to throw fairly small sized pieces of meaty media at us to calm us up until now. Whatever they are doing for DNF, they better show something substantial this year... It should reveal a Trailer Around the same time of their Christmas Party like last year, otherwise WTF!!

[peoplessi]

Different sound in the bell now? Nothing means nothing.

Well yeah dude that's right let's sure hope that 3DR doesn't piss us off this year, I am so freaking looking forward to this Christmas... They better show something substantial as they've been hinting at as well so far... If not somehow nothing then what a huge timing letdown it will be in terms for marketing and pleasing the fans of 3DR's long awaited great game DNF...

Coal would be something REAL at least.

Last year all we got was an I.O.U. for a lump of coal.

Well yeah but last year's video was Awesome I still Love watching it, if it's anything like last year we should get something substantial as a Trailer. I just left every 3DR (including Scott) member a nice message on their company forum pages, so they will get the point even directly clear now.

So you consider the "stay tuned" teaser to be substantial?

If it's anything like last year, we'll be having this same conversation next December.

You don't sound as confident as before about DNF That took you what, a year, people have been waiting a lot longer than that, and such swift direction changes haven't happened. Also, I doubt they really do anything based on a message on their forums. You know, people try that once in a while, it doesn't help. And it shouldn't, since you can't just go around throwing tidbits _every_ time somebody asks. They have a game to finish.

[DavoX]

I really hope there's no 1up preview, it's the latest rumour floating aroung with that strange Twitter update that George posted. I really want a goddamned trailer, not some halfassed dude playing DNF.

Where on there do you see 1UP?

I haven't looked close enough at the notes to see anything.

[crunchysuperman]

[Yatta]

I still don't see it. That's weird.

[Psyrgery]

It doesn't says anything about any 1UP Preview. Among the letters there can be read some sort of "1UP pr...". I suppose excitement made somebody believe it was a preview of the game for 1UP.



These tidbits show nothing, imho.

[peoplessi]

Debatable, one of those reads "1up prev..." - or atleast close. Depends, looking at how the first preview turned out, I doubt it would be anything big. Interview would be nice though.
