Freakin' really? Is this how low we're sinking now? ...


...I wish everyone at Interceptor the best of luck, and I hope they make a damn good Duke Nukem game. It's safe to say, no matter how one rates theROTT remake, that it must have been a very humbling and insightful experience for the team, and with that knowledge they can only do better from here. Obviously someone thinks they can, since they were handed the keys to the Duke franchise, and though some of the details we have so far are potentially dubious, I am still excited to see what they offer up.

I was thinking you were decently credible until I read this. Have you literally not played any of the prior Alien(s) games?

[MetroidJunkie]

Their best bet may be to either make it like Rise of the Triad 2013, where they retain what made the original 90's shooter great while making it feel new, or just make it a completely different style of game. Going half way is what Duke Nukem Forever did and it didn't work for them.

What's there to be ashamed of? These sort of assclowns only show up during Interceptor threads and they get worse every time.

Ain't that the truth.

Sad thing is in the days of smart phones this shit is easier than ever, just tether the damn thing and post Bruno's dick. BAM, no need to spend 15+ minutes finding a working Russian proxy server.

[The Commander]

Wow, would you look at that Warcraft III compared to making mods for Duke Nukem and being active in the community with 65 posts must mean excellent work.

SAID NO ONE EVER!

[Jimmy]

You don't want to debate this shit with me, noob. I've taken on far greater shitposters than yourself.

Notice LongBow3000's post count? 65.
Member Fresch's post count? 67.
Member Frederik Schreiber's post count? 2.

That's a whopping 134 posts in twelve years.

Wow, what an active member of our community. Glad he could bless us with eleven posts a year on average.

My contention has never been any of these things;
1: That Fred has posted anywhere in the Duke community.
2: That Fred has opened BUILD.
3: That Fred played Duke3D in 1996.

My contentions are:
1: Fred claiming he was an active member. He wasn't. He was tertiary. (I'll even give him the benefit of the doubt on this one. Maybe he just meant he had posted before.)
2: That he was a mapper. Unless you can provide evidence of this, you just sound phony baloney. Why bring it up?

Now fuck off, shitposter.

Honestly - Interceptor is wanting to make a Duke game. I do not see Gearbox making any announcements.
Why not see where they want to go with it before condemning them?

It might be a fun game at the end of the day. Which games are about having fun.
I do not really get why people are getting all colon crucified over the fact that Interceptor is making a Duke game.

Yeah ROTT had some major stuff wrong with it at launch but hopefully they learned from it and patched it out.

[Daedolon]

I think he already publicly came apart, nothing you can do to help him.

I'm honestly carefully inquisitive about this Duke game. Then again, that could be said about all the upcoming games anyway. Time will tell.

But I will say you one thing. This thread is full of shitposters.

It's like they have to fit all the BS that occured during the wait for DNF into the time until the reveal.

All we need now is some space cadet to start predicting the release date based on his secret illuminati calendar he bought from the back of a comic book.

I honestly think they all went kennel mad sat there on the 3DR forums for a decade waiting for that damn game.

yeah i am doubting that leap, ROTT felt like a good mod at best, certainly not a game you'd pay for

Maybe in the sense that they should've had more new content but they had the right idea of keeping consistent with what made the original so entertaining. No sense in trying to make it like Call of Duty or Halo since fans of that will just play THOSE games, anyway.

I really don't understand why it matters that Frederick isn't the mapping superstar he says he is. Sure, Frederick exaggerated his role in TEH MAPPING KOMMUNITY, but that doesn't mean he's some sort of dude that's never heard of Duke or barely played it. Taking up a remake for an obscure mid 90s FPS series tells me that they definitely have the passion for old game franchises, like Duke. Community involvement != your passion for the series. I've loved Duke since I was a little kid, but I've never made a map nor made a level and I spend most of my time here talking about other things.

Interceptor has the potential to make a good Duke game. However, I feel they have significant issues with programming and, to a lesser extent, level design. The level design shouldn't be too much of a problem in a top-down game, but their bad programming skills could make it or break it. If even 1/4 of your skills are bugged out and have optimization issues, that fucks over the game bigtime and turns people off. I'm cautiously optimistic about it, but I won't be surprised if there are lots of bugs and broken things when it's first released.

I understand that people are upset about Frederick's over exaggerating, but Interceptor released a retail product, which I feel is a better way to judge them than "he said A Thing once that turned out not to be 100% true".

It may not be to us, but it sure as hell is to many people. There is a huge world outside of "oldschool FPS game community" or "Apogee fans". If you polled people on sites like GameFaqs about RoTT, I doubt any of them would've heard of it before the remake was announced.

[Daedolon]

I think you're having a disconnect in your logic. Obviously if people didn't live in the era of "oldschool FPS games", they have no clue what majority of the games from that era were.

The wording in your post seems to make it sound like RoTT isn't obscure to those of us that aren't huge oldschool FPS game fans.
