Is there really a Santa Monica Pier map?

There was. The main area was cut in half, the remaining bits were fleshed out and it ended up as Flood Zone.

[OpenMaw]

Would be interesting to see how that location was initially interpreted into the build engine, if places like SA in Abyss are anything to go by.

And there was me thinking it was M7.

What about the strange names at the end of Episode 1? Do we know if they served any purpose?

That may be one of the textures that one of the game artists lifted from H. R. Giger's works

It was pointed out in the HRP thread a while back that at least a couple of Duke3d textures were pretty much ripped from this Giger art. (there may be others out there):


Even Duke 1 and 2 are no strangers to ripping off art.

With the magazine scan of LA Night, I am now wondering what other textures have questionable' "not-so-public-domain" origins.

I know this one;

Very unappreciated game, started life as Terminator before the license went to - I think - LJN. Has kickass music too.

Yeah, it's most likely the Battlelord. Or a random generic alien skull.

EDIT: Where is that red room with the skull faces map from anyway? Also, Santa Monica Pier being a flood zone is just eh.

[OpenMaw]

It's from Bank Roll. It's the room once you go through the turny things, get the key and open the vault.

Which is why people getting excited by it was confusing me.

[FTW23065]

Screenshots of the old Santa Monica Pier map would be nice.

Huh, somehow I missed that. Weird.

Also, not sure if you guys have seen it already but I'll post it anyway

Doesn't necessarily mean anything. Don't forget that Fork Parker is hardly the official representative of Devolver.

Fork is a gimmick account run by Devolver. Most of his tweets are basically shitposts, but he does occasionally tweets about things Devolver would like to do sometime down the line.

Devolver tried getting their hands on the Blood IP, but it was just too expensive for them.

[offtopic]I love that game. I own the NES NTSC-U and the Famicom versions CIB. I also have a bootleg pirate famicom cart of it. And I also have a cart of "Anarchy Edition", the first romhack made for this game; only about 10-15 carts were made and it was never dumped as a rom. That's how much I love that game. [/offtopic]

I'm not that familiar with twitter but it seems like Shadow Warrior (Flying Wild Hog?) retweeted Fork's post 14 minutes before that screenshot was taken, therefore possibly implying that it's somehow still relevant. But it's probably more of a marketing ploy than anything meaningful.

That screenshot is OLDDDDDD, people need to STOP bringing it up and confusing the fuck out of it. It is simply firmly sitting in Warner Bros' grasp and it is not going anywhere.

[Micky C]

I feel violated and used

People need to stop bringing Blood up in this thread full stop.

Not bad, N3 would also work.

Those maps are obviously like oil rigs or some other kind of industrial thing. Nothing to do with Santa Monica, skateboarding punk rock capital of the world.

Few could have predicted.

[High Treason]

We waited over a decade for DNF, and that sucked. Personally I don't mind waiting a much shorter amount of time for these and I'm pretty confident they won't suck...

Well, they'd probably suck compared to a completed product, but they aren't likely to be passed off as one unless some marketing person is very, very stupid.

[Shaq Fu]

The silence is killing me - may we see some cool new beta picture(s)?
