I love the George defenders....... screw this asshole he has had way more then enough time to say something to us, "its canceled" "we don't know" "we are working on it". This shit face has lost all credibility with me after the 14 year wait and him stringing all of us along STILL!!! Yes i want the game as much as the rest of you but screw the management at 3DR and there feelings because that's how we are getting treated. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Maybe you will get something soon who knows. Let's just wait and see shall we...
Something that will shock fans with awesomeness even more than it shocked them when they saw that demo reel or the leaked media + the closing down of 3drealms!

So you really believe that .. after 13 years.. George will suddenly change how he does business and approaches things?

Look, the guy was not a business man. Even Miller saw that.

Why is he a fucking idiot? You don't even know if it's his fault for this screw up that everybody is ASSUMING is happening because let's be honest now, there is not even official news that there is an actual screw up.
There is no reported leaked media, and there is no reported bankruptcy.
Besides that jackass Joe nobody said anything about it.
For all you know George is on vacation on the sunny beach tanning himself and Joe has gone mad and he is going beserck on everything while George is on vacation with his mobile phone broken.

Listen, I'm not talking about the events over the last few days I'm talking about the events over the last 5100+ days.

The 3DR Forums & Website will be moving to a new server either on Thursday the 14th or Friday the 15th. They will be unavailable during that time. The forums will stay up as long as possible until such a point is reached where they have to be closed for the move to preserve data.

When they return, they will be on a new server, but they will most definitely return!

Joe Siegler,
3D Realms Webmaster

Seems shit is on a move again...

Going a bit offtopic here:

I wonder what does Jace Hall think about the closure and the current DNF situation.

You really are in denial, then.

Full blown, full on denial.

These people are unemployed, looking for jobs, and you think JOE did this? What do you think was in that final picture? A fucking hologram?

You know, when you've dug yourself a hole, the proper thing to do is stop DIGGING.

no he just said "what the fuck is taking so long" but it was about time someone said it as plain as day to them because it seems like everyone else just wants to get on their knees for the 3DR management

Given that it expires in two months.. I doubt it means anything. The update on 2009-05-07 was likely them taking off the "autopay" of the domain.

NO

When you register domains, you register multiple domains to cover all things related to what you are doing. Buying the dukenukemremake domain was probably to prevent anyone else from buying it and then using it as a place to host an illegal remake (such as the HL2 mods etc). This is standard procedure for businesses and people with websites and registered domains.


I don't see this thread going anywhere but further down the shit pipe.


EDIT: Also, great pic Micki! as usual.

Joe Siegler,
3D Realms Webmaster


So why exactly do they have to take down the site to move it to a new server? Why can't they just set it up on the new server and simply change the address the domain? Databases?

Whats actually more strange to me is that 3drealms is hosted on a godaddy account (like many others of their sites), so why do they need to change server at all? A godaddy "Unlimited+ Plan" costs roughly about 300$ a year. Also you have to pay in advance or it gets shut down! So their server payments run out exactly on friday? What a coincidence? They can't afford a 300$ a year webhost?

Or do they have a dedicated server?

Its just looking a bit wierd to me. Wouldn't they rather be setting up a new site and forum and thats why they have to take down the site?

Or could it be that they are changing to a bigger hosting plan because their servers were maxed out from the duke4ever hype? Are they expecting more traffic to come with some anouncement? And add the locking of threads to that.


Of course the simplest explanation is still that they closed and the game is unfinished ect. and I feel sorry for their employees.

Its amazing I have remained silent for years due to anger and frustration about this damn game for so long that I didn't even care any more about it and now with the closing of 3DR and all this hype going on I forgot the about the hatred I had towards them over the years. Its like watching a piece of my youth dying with the possibility of DNF never coming out and I'm done sitting by quietly anymore. They fucked up and need to know it

They're not oblivious to current events. They lost their jobs, they know that someone either fucked up or they got fucked over.

@Micki!'s pictures
Fantastic!
I like the first one better though, because it's more subtle.
Also, it's ironic that Duke goes from tipping strippers $100 a pop to getting raped by octabrains for a buck.

Its like they are holding the duke hostage and if we rebel in the slightest they clamp on his nuts a little bit tighter.
