installing it right now
people complain a lot about the BOS bust but it's pretty cool imo and the dice are nice as well
6 gig install
i got a bug that prevents me from continuing past the first level, frozen stuck in an elevator and nothing i've done works
sounds like a great game
i got it working, it looks like it's a bug related to the steam overlay
it's pretty fun but performance is very erratic as some scenes are really intense with a lot of high-end effects while others are pretty junky in comparison

shitty overrated game
shitty ending

You're shit.
The game is fine. It is VASTLY superior to the majority of FPS games that are being developed and released, and the second most fun game this year for the PC. It needs a patch or two badly for the instability bugs, but the game itself is just as I expected it to be - an unpolished mash-up of whatever they've been screwing around with for the past decade, but a fun one. Yeah, the ending wasn't great... but to me, it was bad because it ended. The only place it fell a little short was the overall duration, I thought it would be a little longer, but 10-12 hours is still alright.
Even if people aren't extremely keen on it, it's definitely worth a bargain purchase for a playthrough, just because of all the shit you can do.
I've also only heard good things about the multiplayer, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.
The only reason someone wouldn't like this is if they wanted a non-stop action fuckfest like the shitty ass Call of Duty games. If you want to drive RC cars, slap alien walltits, and laugh at unintentional jokes about black strippers and abortions, Duke Nukem Forever is 4 U!
the game is vastly overrated and a piece of shit
multiplayer is shitty generic capture the flag and deathmatch shit. not fun because its basically call of duty but worse.
its funny that you mention call of duty because they obviously tried to copy them I mean geez
haha wacky joke lol off da wall boobies lol randome duke nukem womanizing funny
nah you haven't played it
just like billy didn't play starcraft 2
played a few levels on it and im loving it already, action takes a little time to get started but i didnt mind what with all the interactive stuff including punching out a jerky actor and writing on boards/books whatever you want
[spoiler]also when you get shrunk and drive around in an rc car you can drive into the shins of the enemies[/spoiler]
i think what i'll do is buy it in the future when there are patches and maybe it's a little cheaper and i actually have money i can be spending on things i don't need

so the gameplay is decent
good
i was nervous that it had fallen prey to every modern fps cliche in the book
it's just a dumb game to piss around in, if you take it seriously you won't like it
i didn't like the demo at all
i don't see how the full game can possibly be good
but i'm glad you're having fun
thanks for wacky picture of all the taokakas on steam that are impostering me!!!
haha the one above me was playing condition zero what
also duke nukem still sucks i played the demo and its modern warefare but more wacky
hey tron try playing modern warefare i think you would like it its like duke nukem but better
it has less internet jokes tho so you might not like it
but you ARE an internet joke and i fucking hate you
oh your that sinitron guy who wacky trolled tba server by totally weirding everyone out epic troll dude lol
die
really im not suprised he would like such a wacky game brimming with internet wackyness
haah duke nuke them epic dude

you mean when i was playing on mobile broadband and lagging like crazy while demolishing everyone anyway and mocking you relentlessly until comrade came along and just curbstomped everyone even harder, and afterwards you lied to all your 'friends' that you had 'repelled' me with your 'wit' and 'cunning', even though noone heard whatever you were whimpering about on the mic?
yeah, that was pretty 'epic' alright you fucking dolt
you killed people over and over as a heavy on blockfort good job dude!!
epic trolling dude lol u mocked me epically even though i made u shut up because your a faggot who suck dick and isnt funny in anyway and literally nobody likes you except passive agressive faggots
hey dude there's a wacky game u might like its called "portal" it has epic jokes like the cake it a lie where u will be baked over 9000 times lol
im vry glad that u decided to turn a discussion about a shitty game into u being a fag on tba to try to save ur internet ego
why why do you make me want to cave in my monitor moreso with every one of your posts
why do you not stop talking about tf2
why do you speak out of so much hate over such petty shit

I didn't pick the map, you didn't make me shut up, I'm not trying to be funny, I don't give a shit who likes me or not, Portal and Portal 2 are both good, solid and fun games in terms of gameplay and the 'epic jokes' are limited to 'the cake is a lie' which is a part of the game universe and some smartasses decided to spam it everywhere, and DNF isn't an amazing game but it sure isn't a shitty one either.
Like, I can understand you not liking DNF and all... but disliking Portal because it started a meme? The whole fucking Taokaka character is part of the stupid closet furry idiot catgirl whore 'meme' the fucking Japanese otakus are obsessed with, and not even other Japanese like them.
You'd think after all this time you guys would learn not to play games with Tao.

hell of recommendation to consider getting it. Or a sale. If Valve does a steam sale on it, I'd probably get it. Provided I'm still around when it happens.
Now that Duke is back they need to reinvigorate other Apogee franchises. Like Commander Keen.

And DNF was pretty fucking disppointing sadly. It was also too short, one hour for every year it was in development.
Quote from: creamcornso duke nukem is a pretty good game i heard
depends entirely on what you expect from it
DN3D fans will be crying themselves to sleep because it's nothing like DN3D at all
most shooter fans will be frustrated by the fairly slow pace during the opening segments
there are a few parts that just aren't all that fun to go through, like when you constantly have to get gasoline for the monster truck (like in the demo)
on the flipside, there's a lot of silly little things to do, some pretty cool designs (octabrains and the cycloid emperor were my favorites) and you can drive a fucking FORKLIFT motherfucker, carmageddon style, for a few minutes
if you can play it for what it is, without expectations, it can be very enjoyable and fun, but if you're expecting the game of the century... you're not getting it
it has a lot of problems, but the most severe ones are stability and compatability issues which need to be patched
taokaka is kinda always trying too hard
anyways, i got the game, just started playing a few minutes ago and it's fun.

like saying that a shitty double cheeseburger from mcdonalds off of the dollar menu is pretty good as long as you appreciate it for what it is, without expectations, and there are times that you'll get horrible ibs and you'll feel like shit after you eat it but it's still got some basic ingredients that can taste good i guess. you can throw the bun and that might be some fun
I'm saying it needs a patch to iron out the technical problems, and not to expect DN3D in HD. A lot of people put expectations into what the gameplay would be like, and were pissed off as a result because it wasn't the game they wanted it to be. People have pointed out some legit design flaws, such as the two-weapon limit restricting you to one offensive weapon if you choose to use the freeze or shrink rays... even though I only had issues with this once during the game, and it was just a little more challenging to pull off, not impossible.
Also, while that cheeseburger does involve rats and microwaves like DNF, comparing 3DRealms/Triptych to McD's just plain isn't RIGHT.

do not read this thread it is not about duke nukem

worthless
if they're not reviewing the PC version, they might as well not review it at all
http://www.strategyinformer.com/pc/dukenuk...528/review.html (http://www.strategyinformer.com/pc/dukenukemforever/1528/review.html)
this review is far more reasonable
the difference between the two?
eurogamer guy seems to have been into the hype about how it would be the best game ever due to the development time, while the strategyinformer reviews it as he would any other game and even though he points out a lot of flaws he also thought the game was sort of fun (while also playing it on the PC)
the eurogamer review mentions many other flaws in the game, as does nearly every credible publication. i will be very surprised if the metacritic scores do not plummet even lower in the next few days when the game is released in the great ol us of a
the fact that it's not funny should be enough of a sin
the game can only be considered at all good in an alternate dimension where no other games exist. fortunately we do not live in that universe, and we have games with better graphics, better gameplay, better humor, better music, better story. by today's standards what we have is a game that is budget quality at almost every level, priced at $50 because of what little steam the franchise has left from duke nukem 3d. (which does not hold up to today's standards either, bless your heart if you think otherwise)
all i'm saying is that everything in the eurogamer review reflects my experience with the demo, and your reasoning is sounding a bit like fanboy denial from over here but i'm glad you enjoy it and find your money to be well spent
i really am glad you're having fun but please don't try to get other people to waste 50 bones on a product that barely toes the line of mediocrity.
painkiller is better than duke nukem forever in nearly every way

Quote from: Billyi really am glad you're having fun but please don't try to get other people to waste 50 bones on a product that barely toes the line of mediocrity.
Actually, I keep telling people to wait for a few patches to fix the technical bugs and the inevitable price slashes that will come from the god-awful reviews, mass cancelled pre-orders in the US and extreme drop in sales after the first week, or to just plain pirate it.
Reviews for the 360 version are a joke though, because consoles are a bad, console shooters are worse, and games ported from one to the other are more likely to be less junk when played on the original medium it was released for.
As an example, I fucking hated the steaming pile of dogshit that was Dead Space because I got the PC version, which was glitched and broken to fucking hell.
I haven't played it or anything, but generally speaking, basing your opinion off a demo isn't the strongest way to argue for something. I mean, in this case it's obvious that reviewers seem to think the same way, but still.
What I'm getting at is that anyone should play a game all the way through (or at least part way through) before deciding on how good it is. I had a huge debate with someone I know about this the other day (ironically, also in regards to DNF), but he didn't seem to get the difference.
Well, as far as playing it all the way through goes... the ending did suck. However I'm pretty sure it was intentional as Duke says "What kind of shit ending is this?" after the last cutscene, and says he'll be back for more.
everyone should just do what i do and if a video game looks good buy it if it doesn't don't
but what do i know i'm just a crab

turn off v-sync
i did
it was still fucked up
i had to unplug every USB shitter for the controls to not fuck up
it was sluggish and shitty
i think the general consensus of DNF is that it is an average game with fun moments for fans of the series, but nothing near GOTY or a product worth 14 years of waiting (nothing would be). to me it doesn't sound like it's worth the full price, but i have a feeling it will be in the bargain bin before the end of this year.
nah duke fans hate it because it's too 'modern'
then it's just an average game
it is pretty dumb though with the recharging health and only 2 weapons to carry
I've still enjoyed what ive been able to play of it so far but Serious Sam and Painkiller are much better examples of old school shooter style games done right.
Also i think in terms of vaporware games actually ending up being made some are actually worth the wait (STALKER took nearly 10 years to come out and it was definately worth waiting) and duke i hate to say wasn't worth the weight but it could've been worse.
Quote from: rtilthen it's just an average game

fuk u halo is teh best
didn't tf2 take 10 years
i just want to remind everyone that dnf was announced in 1997 - that was 14 years ago, and it bankrupted 3d realms. the only reason it was released is because it was picked up by gearbox. and judging from what i've seen and heard, the game wasn't really polished and more rushed out the door when they felt it was complete enough to make money from acquiring it
the version with the mutated tentacle humans looked cooler

just don't play the console versions and wait for them to patch the steam overlay/crashing issues and it's fine
played the demo not too long ago, I'll say that it was fun, but not outstanding. duke's remarks during the action made me snort on occasion, but i have a hard time believing this game took 12 years to make, looks like this could have been whipped up in less than a year, if 3d realms wasnt a bunch of lazy fucks to begin with
Quote from: Tron Sawyerthe version with the mutated tentacle humans looked cooler

this incarnation was started sometime in 2006 or 2007
the difference in time doesnt exactly make up for how half-assed/unimpressive the game is

it's impossible

Duke Nukem wasn't meant to be a great game. Remember Duke Nukem 3D? There wasn't anything amazing about it but it's style. Hate if you want, but DNF is exactly what it was supposed to be, a crappy, crude, cheesy, game. I don't think it could have been made much better than it was.

That's just making excuses. The game was meant to be a great follow up to DN3D but constant engine/general changes and arrogance from George Broussard lead to it not getting done and 3D Realms looking useless. Had no one wanted to risk picking it up again it probably wouldn't have come out for even longer or ever. The game could've been made a lot better and wasn't anywhere near as good as it could have been. This doesn't mean you can't personally enjoy it (i do) but don't say it was intentionally sub par that's rediculous.
