Hell Hath Frozen Over... Could it be true? A Duke Nukem Forever teaser from 3DRealms?
December 19th 2007, 16:15 CET by OmegaFoRCe Long long ago, in a Crap far, far away, there were Crappers making fun of 3DRealms and their seemingly unending development cycle of Duke Nukem Forever. Could the legends of a real video game actually be true? And behold - the word of legend: http://forums.3drealms.com/vb/showthread.php?t=29639 Last Saturday we had our annual company Christmas party. It was a lot of fun as usual but it featured one special surprise. It turns out that several people had been secretly working late nights and into the wee hours of the morning preparing a special video for those at the party. They created a short teaser for Duke Nukem Forever.
After seeing the teaser we thought it was something we should share with all of you and while it's just a teaser, rest assured more is coming. Tomorrow, Wednesday the 19th, around noon CST, we will release the first teaser trailer from Duke Nukem Forever. To tide you over until then, here is a screen shot taken from the teaser. Thank you for being fans of the game and for your continued patience. I'd like to thank the people on the team that worked so hard to create this teaser and the friends of 3DR that helped create it (Jeremy Soule and Julian Soule, Frank Bry, Jason Evigan and of course, Jon St. John). |

Fugazi mentioned TF2. Hasn't every Valve game been released since D3D? |
|
Yea, that's true, but I was mentally blocking TF2 from when TFC came out. <Hugin_len> Basically, cheesy doesn't have awful taste in music, he's simply very white.
|
|
CheesyPoof (#11): 3RD still has fanbois? Apparently they do, according to the linked thread in #0 where a bunch of people line up just to shit their pants at the thought of a screenshot of a video of a demo of a game. |
|
The only reason I mentioned TF2 is because of its similarity to DNF in the following ways: -early screen shots -early hype -silence -rumours of starting over I am not comparing Valve to 3DR. And yes, 3DR does have fanbois. Their forums are a gibbering mass of sycophantic males that are likely trying to score QA jobs at 3DR. Hell-you should read Romero's forums. It's a great cure for depression-especially when his mail-order bride posts! Q'apla!
|
|
It's possible that they could pull a TF2 where it's revealed that no, really, we scrapped the original design a while back and have been working diligently on this new kick ass project for years with complete radio silence. A lot of us ate crow (sweet, delicious crow) when TF2 was revealed. But this isn't Valve. The safe money is on this being much ado about nothing. |
|
Will DNF be a PC exclusive or will it be ported to consoles? GET IN THE VAN I GOT CANDY
|
|
Neither. |
|
Anyway, I hop it works better than their (3DR's) forum. GET IN THE VAN I GOT CANDY

A teaser trailer? I thought we were done with this, this is just treading water again. We need to see something playable before we can call it progress, it's way past the point where any sort of teaser trailer would be appropriate. |
|
I laughed quite hard at the #17 #18 exchange. |
|
The circle is now complete. |
|
It's possible that they could pull a TF2 where it's revealed that no, really, we scrapped the original design a while back and have been working diligently on this new kick ass project for years Haven't they done this a couple times already? |
|
Should be linked. |

There are no fanbois more hilariously slavish than 3DR fanbois. Yeah, they're even worse than Heroes fanbois. You never see animals going through the absurd and often horrible fooleries of magic and religions. Only man behaves with such gratuitous folly. It is the price he has to pay for being intelligent but not, as yet, intelligent enough. --Aldous Huxley

I like how every GTA game and every Sims game has been released since DNF entered development. Plus the Mars rover thing and the moon landing thing, of course. "I don't like story in games." - Soren Johnson
|
|
You guys are mean. Game development is hard. Extremely hard. Harder than putting a rover on mars. That's some hard shit! "Thug means never having to say you're sorry." - UTurn
|
|
I bet if 3DR had the budget that NASA had for the Mars mission... Broussard would have died already. |
|
The trailer is out-all the mirrors are hosed though. Q'apla!
|
|
Trailer. As bad as expected. |
|
Is there a release date in the final frame? Or "Early April fools!"? GET IN THE VAN I GOT CANDY
|
|
Looks like somebody went overboard with the normal mapping. Fanplastic. Any game where competence can be measured by the amount of clicks per minute is not a strategy game.
|
|
I am ockshed and gasterflabbed, seriously whatever will we do for t3h j0kes? "But I don't exist in your world!" "Then you won't feel the bullets when we shoot you."
|
|
Looks pretty weak alright, but then again this was never the game I expected absolutely stunning visuals from. Keep the action fast and straightforward (sort of like Serious Sam, but with fewer 'hilarious' monsters) and it might not suck completely. #10 - Why not both come out of a window?
|
|
Ouch. Beter give it another 10.5 years, 3DR. "I've always viewed masturbation as a pretty positive thing."
- Warren Marshall |
|
It's not horrible, but nothing great, so I give it a meh. <Hugin_len> Basically, cheesy doesn't have awful taste in music, he's simply very white.
|
|
I don't know, the one-liners only server to remind me how long ago 1996 was. If they're trying to make Duke3D with better graphics, they've obviously not learned much in 10 years. "I've always viewed masturbation as a pretty positive thing."
- Warren Marshall |
|
I hope to get a Dum review of the trailer. <Hugin_len> Basically, cheesy doesn't have awful taste in music, he's simply very white.
|
|
Oh yeah. Also, DNF trailer took longer to ship than MS Vista, and that has been re-coded from scratch two times. |
|
Wow, that was awful. And it's strange how the Duke model is a bigger meaner more-ripped badass than ever and yet his voice actor sounds more than ever like a pitiful teenaged geek. "I don't like story in games." - Soren Johnson
|
|
The new Zero Punctuation is good though. "I don't like story in games." - Soren Johnson
|
|
I concur, definitely one of the better ZPs. MP3 Of The Week: [Insert now-traditional late message here]
|
|
I think the 3DR team is more worried about the graphics than they really need to be... as shown by their constant engine switching. I have no faith DNF will be any good...nothing could live up to the expectations, but they really ought to be thinking gameplay instead of kickass redneck. "Thug means never having to say you're sorry." - UTurn
|
|
If they're trying to make Duke3D with better graphics, Come now, they could do a lot worse (and will, I'm afraid). #10 - Why not both come out of a window?
|
|
I have no faith DNF will be any good...nothing could live up to the expectations What expectations? I have no faith DNF will be any good because the game industry has advanced in the last 11 years, and this video just confirms that 3DR hasn't. Like Bob said, the voice work made that one-liner sound like self-parody, and I don't think that's what they were going for. |
|
You know, that's what they should do. They should make the game a complete parody of the FPS genre in general and of their own escapades in specific. It's the only way out at this point. |
|
Shadarr Maybe not expectations, but something to validate the time spent. As for what they can do to get out of this with smiles all around...they can't. "Thug means never having to say you're sorry." - UTurn
|
|
I'll play it. Prey wasn't bad after 10 years. Game Developers: Don't forget the zombie monkeys.
|
|
I'd disagree with that. But even if you don't, you have to agree that it was a disappointment. "I don't like story in games." - Soren Johnson
|
|
What the shit? That is horrible! Yeah yeah screen shots ain't everything, so we'll wait and see. That trailer really had some outright shit though, the god awful cheesy one liner for one. The action in places looked kinda SiN/f.e.a.r.-esque, but maybe 3D Realms can do a proper job instead of those pieces of garbage. I still have hopes it'll be cool (I have my reasons), but I'll concede that my hope isn't really anchored in reality at this point. Best of luck to the 3DR guys heh. "I'm not even angry / I'm being so sincere right now."
|
|
The words "F.E.A.R." and "garbage" are not compatible. GET IN THE VAN I GOT CANDY
|
|
SiN/f.e.a.r.-esque You better be meaning SiN:Episodes there. #10 - Why not both come out of a window?

Well tonight thank God it's him instead of yooooooouuuuuuuuuuuu... |
|
:Episodes, yes, of course. Thinking Fear is a good game is kinda wrong, but it's obviously nowhere near as bad as SiN. Just kinda samey and warehousy, and it happened to pop to mind as I was writing the post. "I'm not even angry / I'm being so sincere right now."

Ain't gonna happen, ever. Media blitz = pathetic attempt to revive lost reputation. I remember clear back when, when the first "supposed" picture of this game was released in a PC game mag. It was a jeep that looked high-centered, I think...I believed it then. This is all complete bullshit, because Broussard spent all their company funds at Carl's Jr. |
|
Well shit. The trailer was rather craptastic. I guess that's what happens when "several people had been secretly working late nights and into the wee hours of the morning preparing a special video". I'm all for generating hype, but come on guys. Don't release something that looks like ass - keep it in house until there is something that properly reflects the game that you are still apparently working on. That is, unless this teaser is a true reflection of a game that has been in development for over 10 years. If that is the case, well, good luck. You're going to need it. |
