The developers have been laid off, but Take-Two still holds the publishing rights... who knows what could happen from here?omg he slaped the giant on the way down :cry: why is it cancled
Also has it been "offically" cancled?weddy92
looks pwnsome, that footage showed some epic balls.I hope devs like iD Software, Epic Games or Human Head Studios picks this up and finish it.

I guess I am in the minority here, but I certainly am not crying over one of the biggest failures ever. Yeah, the game looks like it could have been fun, but over a decade and this is all they can show after it is too late? I feel bad for 3D Realms and all, but I just do not see the point in acting like this was some sort of masterpiece. It obviously was a garbled up mess of ideas that they could never put together. They have had plenty of time and just could not deliver, it is way past time for this game to be officially declared the dead in the water vaporeware it always was. Not trying to be mean, just being realistic is all. It is what it is and some masterpiece in the making it clearly was not.
That really ticks me off that 3D realms didn't show us any of that... Till now. If only they showed us more... They could have gotten funding and finished the game years ago.
We can only hope Take 2 or some other Dev will pick this game up and actually finishes it. It looks awesome in it unfinished state.
[QUOTE="iam2green"]the movie looks awesome, the graphics are meh but they are easily upgraded. i liked how u can see duke's body. no other FPS has done that before or i don't think so.DragonfireXZ95There have been a few that have done that before.Yeah, try looking down in Halo 2, 3; CoR Butcher Bay; the Darkness

+ F.E.A.R. 1 and 2, Condemned 1 and 2, Mirror's Edge.
Ton's of FPS's do it.
Has he was falling he stuck up his middle finger. No game has ever down that. Man this game look so badass I want to cry.

i was kind of thinking about that too.[QUOTE="nVidiaGaMer"]
NO where did it say the game was cancelled.
malikmmm
All we know right now is that it's on hold... People are just speculating it is canned since 3D Realms is gone. If Take 2 doesn't decide what to do with this game... Then you can assume it's been scrapped.
It has the Duke attitude but considering it's been in dev for ten years I think it look like absoulte crap and I'm glad 3D Realms is shut down. I hope they never work in the business again cause this should have been out 2001/2002.

Left 4 Dead PC version does it too.Gameplay looked great. But the voice acting was simply atroacious. Ah well, it's a moot point anyways.
id love to right them a check for like 5 million dollars right now
porky_ownsu
hahaha i was just thinking that, if i had a few million to spare i would be writing a check for a million dollars right now. I used to play so much duke nukem 3d, even if this game was as great i still have to have 1 more go with duke.
edit: Also am i the only one that misses these kind of games? Like the way doom used to be or duke nukem 3d? Just games made for fun, not somethign with all multiplayer in mind, or some huge compelling story, while i love all these things, there is nothign out there like duke anymore. Damn shame this game never came out, we need something like this to freshen up the stale FPS market we have today.
God I wish someone would have picked this up and given 3D Realms some cash to finish it. :cry:
TreyoftheDead
Simply amazing. They kept this so well hidden :(. Looked amazing for alpha/beta gameplay...we need more duke!!!!!! :cry:
Sorry but this looks like crap in my opinion. Just because its now cancelled people are going on and on about how great it would have been. To me it looks like another generic FPS with nothing new about it. Might as well have been Haze 1.5.

I don't see any justification for comparing it to Haze 1.5. Sure, it was unfinished graphically. But in terms of the sheer gunplay shown, it looked top notch... something that can't be said about Haze.

Duke came before Haze. Duke has pigs, strippers, and of course the Duke. Haze has touchy feely muscle men in cosplay outfits.

I wasn't comparing the features of the games but rather the hype and the let down. For a game that has been in development since Adam met Eve, it is generic. Sure, it wasn't complete however what was shown was nothing special imho. When you have games that have been in development for two years that look superior, that is saying something about the developer. Most likely they had been using so much $$$ and when all was said and done there wasn't enough show for what was spent. People talk about Killzone 2 being in development for years, well, at least with two years before release it was shown as looking fantastic at E3. This? No thanks.[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"][QUOTE="scoobiesnackarf"]

No thanks.I'll take this over KZ2 any day of the week. Duke has character; heart and soul. He's an iconic badass. Something most FPS's fail in these days. I prefer the 3D Realms/id-style FPS's over the garbage out there today.

It's a short demo reel made by an animator to showcase some of HIS work, not that he needs a job. The animations were INCREDIBLE, in both idea and execution, and they were HIS work ALONE. Everything else is irrelevant, considering the POINT of the video.
We're lucky that the video contained some great gameplay footage too.
