I don't care what any of the reviews say.

Some people watch them purely for the sake of entertainment, I'd say this is especially true in case of Gman whom it's pretty difficult to take seriously.

Speaking of which, I noticed there were a bunch of people who criticized level design which is kind of hard to understand where they're coming from, I find this complaint the most bullshit one, I bet if you asked those people what exactly is wrong with level design they would fail to say anything constructive, beyond just "it's bad, in *insert old FPS game* it's better". In Gman case it's no different, if we ignore his other videos, it's pretty curious that he complains about hitscan enemies being such a big deal in open areas while at the same time he failed to provide proper examples of such "problem", instead most of the time the guy tried to dodge projectiles, he even used shotgun to deal with enemies at long range which was rather amusing when he could use a bunch of other effective weapons, pistol is usually what I used personally when I wanted to take down long range enemies. Never thought of this particular thing about level design when played preview campaign, on high difficulty of course, enemies are much more dangerous in closed small areas.

Though aside from this and other nitpicking complaints that are mostly belongs to "IMO" category, I gotta agree about lack of more weaponry options, expected to see at least one new and devastating super gun, not BFG or some copy-cat weapon, but something else, unique, bonus points for an experimental devastating weapon that kind of existed in real life (on paper or not). Going to mention that I like how weapons are balanced, however, in a way that you have to use most of them, if not all. I actually like that a lot, most importantly I'm glad that pistol has more uses (which I mentioned before anyway). Shelly personality is probably not wrong either, but gotta play the full game to make sure.

This is the first new game I bought in years. Best game of 2019 hands down.

Pretty much, haven't bought new games I would truly enjoy in years myself, not even fighting games.

Thank you all for the kind words. It wouldn't have been possible without the 3DR forums, Duke4.net , AMC forums, etc... so many great people keeping this engine alive. I hope we can return some of that to all of you with the game.

I recovered my old account just to say GREETINGS DUKE4 FORUMS. It's been too long. And Ion Fury has me reminiscing something fierce.
-LGR

I hereby would like to request from the devs that if there is a coop mode it will be called "Two girls, one coop" because that's just too good of a title.

Also: a Christmas themed expansion that cures the wounds of Nuclear Winter. :dukecigar:

[Zaxx]

Btw. the soundtrack is already out, you can buy it. It's awesome.

[NightFright]

I am currently refreshing my 3DR game library in 15min intervals, hoping that eventually the preview download is replaced by the full version.

[Zaxx]

According to the info on the Discord: "6 AM PST / 3:30 PM CEST, ION FURY WILL LAUNCH ON STEAM, GOG AND THE 3D REALMS STORE!"

[NightFright]

Ok, that should be in around 2h in my timezone. I guess I will *BARELY* be able to hang in there.

[Master O]

So Shelly doesn't have a Rocket Launcher? That's a bit of a surprising omission...

[NightFright]

Rocket launchers are NOT for pussies.

[xMobilemux]

I'm guessing they're gonna patch in Shelly's "Personal Missile System" weapon once a month.

[NY00123]

As I said outside of these forums, congratulations on the upcoming release. I know that it already kinda happened with the preview campaign back on Feb 2018, but I do think that this is a very important milestone.

(Un)Fortunately, the journey hasn't ended, yet. :dukecigar: We'll see how is this going to progress.

On a side-note, great to see you making a visit, PhReAkINDEE (LGR)! I might not communicate in forums a lot, but this is still a thing.

I wouln't have a problem with introducing a power weapon (or just the crossbow reworked into a power weapon) after launch. This is a Build game, maybe an old school style expansion episode is possible and we all know how Blood retroactively changed the weapon balance and introduced new firing modes even for the main campaign, not just Post Mortem.

Since Shelly already has one of those, I guess you're right. :dukecigar:

[Zaxx]

Power armor is for pussies though so bring that on! :dukecigar:

[Master O]

GOG is still showing Ion Fury as In Dev.

[Zaxx]

It's Civvie!

Has Ion Fury been updated on GOG yet?

Dangit I can't finish the video past the spoiler tags until I play through it myself...to be continued, Civvie...

[NightFright]

Ladies and gentlemen, we have ourselves a full installer on the 3DR website. Download NAOU!

Taking my time and poking at every thing

interesting that if let go on its own accord, the comic-book intro plays twice before the menu comes up

going around drink sodas, or whatever & I can get over 100hp, but if I use the chip vending machine it reduces my hp back down to 100

[Micky C]

Ok I downloaded it... no editor? :’(

drop in the game folder

I'm wondering about some lack of ammunition comments from a reviewer - I'm playing at the third difficulty level (don't know if supplies have a level tag on them or not) I'm finding pistol ammo and health kits everywhere (and the machinegun), and i've barely looked in four rooms.

[MusicallyInspired]

Is it getting Steam Workshop features eventually with a bundled Mapster?

[DavoX]

Yeah lets not talk about that guy.

[Sledgehammer]

It's extremely likely that those reviewers didn't play the game that much, thinking that this is yet another typical pseudo oldschool shooter. Also could be that they don't aim for the head, thinking this game has no headshots.

Also, kudos to you guys for the size of the game. I didn't expect it to be heavy on release, but still would like to point that out. Another proof that this is not some yet another garbage pretending to be oldschool retro shooter. I don't think I saw other ambitious "retro" games caring about such things and it's very pleasing to see. Reminds me of days when I with my friend were making amateur simple games. Even Sonic Mania is bigger (the size of it is 200MB).

[Zaxx]

Yeah, I'm being showered in ammo on ultra viscera too. :dukecigar: Gman is just not good at general exploration, he's rushing through stuff all the damn time.
