Actually that middle finger from Duke Nukem was meant for you IGN. You guys really have no fucking clue what Duke Nukem is supposed to do. The game is supposed to be fun to play. Have a few laughs during the game. Its not supposed to be realistic. Grow a fucking brain and realize some of the jokes that are in this game.
Say what you want about this review guys, the game is BAD animations were BAD this game has been in the works for years, personally I don't even think it deserves a 5.5 probably 3-4 would be more accurate
@CrushedJustice to be far COD's controls feel great and responsive. It may feel dated because they push one out every year, and there's a dozen imitating games. but if feels good, clean, and up to date, where Duke really didn't. Now don't get me wrong, I liked Duke Nukem Forever a lot, and I HATE people who over obsess about COD, but I feel the need to give credit where credit is do, and to its credit COD has a great fun up to date control system.
Add that and the fact that almost every modern FPS game has adopted these gaming mechanics; regenerating health, two weapon limit, etc. So why hate on Duke using them as well? Do you expect Duke to be like he was in the 90's? I would bet if Duke Nukem Forever stayed true to the old school shooters, then reviewers would be bashing the game because of difficulty, health packs, larger weapon limit, no sense of direction or objective, and is too confusing.
It find it humorous that a lot of reviewers have been lashing out towards the jokes and humor in Duke Nukem Forever, or even worse, towards Duke's personality. In all honesty, any of the reviewers bashing Duke because of making jokes on current FPS standards, and then the game actually uses the mechanics in game, what is the significance of this? Why does it matter? Simply put, it doesn't. It's a joke, humor, and it's funny. Take it with a grain of salt.
@FOoMan777 dude calm down...its a matter if opinion and if he says its a crappy game, thats what he thinks. Besides, he did point out some good points abiut iy being outdated. but again thats my opinion
Not everything is a fucking imitation!! God, every time a new game comes out, it is instantly compared to something else. Every game gets its inspiration somewhere, God of War wasn't the first of its kind, nor was CoD the first FPS, so stop with that! It makes you look very ignorant (not trying to do a generic IGN joke). If the game is fun, then that's that. What else matters? Its a fucking game!
I felt like I needed a good rage today, and I stumbled on this, CONGRATU-FUCKING-LATIONS BITCH!
Of course dey gave it 5.5 we all have moved on in the gaming industry bt if dis game would have been released back then den it wouldve gotten a better review....example- If Brink wouldve been released in the times of the PS2/Xbox Then brink wouldve been the best game bak den
Look. Duke Nukem is an AWESOME game. Its hilarious. But dont go hating o ign. Everyne rated it beloew 5.5. And besides, i know this revew is bad, but they just did their job and gave it a revew. So just go and play the game.
@Wasup265 bulletstorm was a pretty good game lasted me a while but duke nukem forever sucks bad the graphics outdated it's too linear and don't get me started on the load times.
You just contradicted yourself. You liked Bulletstorm, but then you complain about Duke Nukem for being to linear, even though Bulletstorm was incredibly linear. While I do agree with you about the graphics, I just really, really don't give a flying fuck about graphics. I don't think anyone should, besides, they aren't that bad anyways, the alien designs are cool and everything looks crisp on the PC. Load times I agree with though.
Alright, don't listen to IGN, this is one of the best shooters on the market next to Bulletstorm and maybe Darkness 2....but that's not saying much! Duke Nukem Forever is a slightly above average game, but compared to complete shit like MW3, RAGE, Assassin's Creed:Revelations, Dragon Age 2, and Final Fantasy 13, this game is a fucking masterpiece. I would recommend this to you if you finally want a break from the constant stream of shitty games IGN and Gamespot are shoving down your throat.
Oh wait! I forgot Serious Sam 3. Now that's old school in a sense, just like Duke Nukem is old school "in a sense". I honestly think Gamespot and IGN and Giantbomb and Xplay all used this hype as an excuse to say the game sucks,and with all the fanboys ready to tear Gearbox's and 3DRealm's throats out because it's not the "perfect game" they wanted, they have support behind those reviews,but notice how none of them review Serious Sam 3. It's because it doesn't have the hype.
You really need to open your eyes man, open your eyes and accept that the industry has gone way, way downhill. The only reason Forever doesn't live up to modern standards, is because these critics are so far diluted into liking this shit, they think these old, fun mechanics and clever level design and enemy type combinations are actually bad.
I also find some of these reviewers' reasoning to be downright pathetic. Duke's personality? Oh, but every character in COD don't get points off for having no personality? Not to mention, they talk more about how they don't like Duke's personality, than they do about how the game is actually bad. They talk for like two minutes about the actual gameplay mechanics, then hardly even explain why they are bad anyways.
I really feel bad for you guys, like really bad. You actually believe the same people that gave Dragon Age 2 a 9/10 are telling the truth about this game. Lack of colors and artistic flare? Doesn't that apply to every military shooter ever? The " drawn out filler" as he so describes it, is just there to break up the action and add a little variety, most of these sequences are only five to ten minutes long, by no means "drawn out",and they actually require you to figure out stuff with your BRAIN!
Yet another reason why ign sucks donkey shit. They put a 10 on any nintendo game (And every COD game) And when theres a GOOD game they rate it poorly.
@beachbum111111 You're dumber than I thought. You SPECIFICALLY said "They put a 10 on any nintendo game (And every COD game)". You can't even read your own fucking comment you idiotic fag.
@wasup265 are you blind? It's obvious that not everyone likes it. Actually, the minority is people who DO like it. 2 weeks in and the used game shelf at the gamestop I go to was FILLED with DNF copies and new copies were only being sold for $19.
Obviously where you live, people have no taste. People probably bought it expecting a revolutionary game of the year material game, then got pissed off and returned it. If it's so bad, why does this video have so many dislikes, and why did the game get a user score of 8/10 on Gametrailers(dot)com?
Also, I'd like to point out, one month after the release of Modern Warfare 3 and the shelves in my Gamestop were filled to the brim with copies. One month after the release of Duke Nukem Forever, only three or four copies used.
@Jayday12345678910 Just be quiet, let the people who like this game enjoy it and go jack off over what ever you would rather play. This game was a let down in that it wasn't quite what anybody expected it to be but some of us still enjoy it cos its DUKE! so blow it out your ass mmkay
I expected Duke Nukem and I got Duke Nukem. You guys expected amazing graphics and terrific character development with a big story.. I love this game. It's amazing!
@wasup265 Yeah, no. I got this game on the DAY of the realease. I believe there needs to be a bandwagon before you can hop on one. So stop accusing someone that you don't even know of being something
@wasup265 Why are you insulting me for telling the truth. The fact that you know nothing abot the development history and call me a simpleton. You keep making up excuses on why this game shouldn't be regarded as shit. Get your ass out your head and play Duke Nukem 3D which by all standards, beside graphics, is a better game.
@wasup265 DNF kept getting delayed because the original developer wanted to copy features from trending video games at the time. Including HL2's physics. The problem is that DNF created these sections just to show them off and did so haphazardly. Play HL2 then play DNF and you will see the difference.
Duke Nukem Forever did NOT get delayed just to copy off other games you simpleton. I do not see the difference between the puzzles in Half Life 2 and this. In fact, the puzzles are even easier to figure out in Half Life 2 than in Duke Nukem Forever. Besides, games copy each other all the time. I loved the first person platforming and driving sections in Duke Nukem Forever and Half Life. Forever didn't exactly copy them either (except for one or two.)
@wasup265 I don't think you understand that DNF did not execute those mechanics the same way HL2 did. DNF copied those things from HL2 but did not do them properly.
How exactly did they not use them properly? Also, it's incorrect to say that 3DRealms copied Half Life 2, they had a game called Prey out at the time, that was made in the same style. FPS platforming, puzzles, and vehicle sections to break up the shooting, it was all in Prey. Duke Nukem Forever also has different level design than Half Life 2, and the first person platforming is set up in different ways.
Prey came out about 2 years after Half Life 2. It was much like DNF, a long project that got passed around to a couple of studios before seeing the light of day. It eventually was released using the ID Tech 4 engine (Doom 3) and suffered from performance issues on anything but PC. It had a pretty original story though.
So, how exactly does this make Duke Nukem Forever bad? Also, the variety? The enemy placement and level design keeps it from getting stale. Did we play the same game? The level design and enemy placement is constantly putting you in new situations, throwing enemies at you from different directions and later combined enemy types that combine to create a better challenge. The charging pig cops combined with shotgun pig cops followed by enforcers and an assault commander? Yes!
If this game was good enough for you, then I'm happy for you! For me, it was a waste of $7 rental money. But hey, nobody said we all need to have the same standards. Cheers!
I would play this any day over COD or Halo. Modern day shooters lack what Duke Nukem Forever has and nobody seems to notice it; level design. Duke Nukem Forever puts you in new situations and puts enemies in places you'd least expect them to come charging after you from. Most modern shooters just have the same enemies charge at you from one single direction with a cover system. No thought, no challenge, no fun. Total shit.
No, that does not make sense. There are TONS of series with still strong fanbases of series with no games coming out in a while e.g. Earthbound/Mother (mother 3 came out more than 10 years after 2 and had a LONGER development time than DNF and still came out as an excellent product). Reviews didn't say this game sucks because it wasn't like they expected they say it sucks because it DOES. I saw a shit ton of used copies of this game and ones that were discounted 2weeks after the release.
there is literally no reason to pay for Duke Nukem Forever. this game is like a retarded child trying to imitate some action movie it caught a glimpse of. sad, revolting, and most of all, disappointing.
Again, another five year old kid trying to get thumbs up by being a bandwagon whore. Nice grammar, by the way. If I wasn't such a rational thinking person I would've thought a mentally challenged monkey wrote your comment by mashing on the keys with his tongue. Your reasons don't make any sense, you're obviously just a little kid who's first game he played was probably that Halo or COD overhyped bullshit. Try a real game and come back here.
Yes, I am perfectly aware I didn't use any capital letters at the beginning of my sentences and that my last one doesn't have a predicate. Thank you for addressing my points in such a clearly relevant manner. Obviously, my inconsistent grammar proves that this game is a "real game" and that I'm "just a little kid who's first game he played was Halo". Why not drop the anger and try telling me why you like Duke Nukem. That would be the more rational thing to do.
People are criticizing this for feeling like a relic, a 2001 game if you will. That is incorrect. It is wrong to negatively criticize a game for feeling like a relic. If it is simply made in the style of a game from that era,it is wrong to say that as a negative.Does a movie reviewer have any right to call a film a piece of shit because it was made in the style of a fifties black and white Noire film? Just because we have moved past that type of gameplay, does not make it bad.
I agree that criticizing this game for feeling old is unfair, especially if we consider the 12 year production "cycle". We can only speculate about what the various producers did with that time and who is really to blame. However, that is not why I ultimately felt disappointed by this game. If I were to pick my biggest gripe with this game, it would be the lack of "oomph" and variety in gun-play and enemies. Duke or no Duke, the core mechanics bothered me more than any lame rape joke.
dont you dare compare this game to half life 2 this game suck i bought it completed it and thought what the fuck and traded it in i completed half life 2 and fought that was awesome thumbs up if you agree
Apparently you hate proper sentence structure as well. I "fought" Half Life 2 had jumping puzzles, driving sections, and physics puzzles, the very same thing this reviewer, and everyone else, is complaining about. So how is Half Life 2 any better than this if, by the opinion of these "reviewers"(idiots), share the same flaws? Half Life 2 did all this stuff and was critically acclaimed for it. Duke Nukem Forever was bashed for it. What does that tell you?
i remember a long time ago that they had a trailer for duke nukem forever and it took so dammn long to make this game and its not even that good wow i feel sorry for the fan that brought this
@legorocks3 Simple, because this game ISN'T THAT BAD! Ffs Why do SO many people keep hating on it because it's not the next Halo?! This game was in development for more than 10 years, switching hands more than once, a company holding it GOING OUT OF BUISNESS, and then after a that time and probably lost data, you expect it to be perfect? Good god, you people should be fucking glad it even came out!
@AngelAngelis I just hope that all you people out there, because of your hate and venomed filled reviews hasn't permanently killed the series. Companies don't tend to continue some games that get REALLY bad reviews.
@AngelAngelis Why would I be glad this crappy game came out? It came out when it did, and its mechanics were designed for 10 years ago. It is reviewed on today's standards because thats when it came out.
so you don't like this game huh? that's because you're playing the console version, when i played the pc version and it looked amazing. sorry but i'm gonna have to thumbs down this video.
The game was bad, but not 'that' bad. Hating it has just become another popular choice. Guys, the game is $5 on Steam for until tomorrow. That's at least worth it - its 5 fucking bucks guys, are you that cheap?
SUCK IT CRITICS! Duke Nukem Forever just go the #17 spot in Screwattack's, user voted, best games of 2011. MW3 didn't even make the list. Suck it down haters, suck it down.
Considering they're partnered with Gametrailers, and they're the company that the Angry Video Game Nerd is partnered with, yeah a lot of people have heard of them. People voted, and Duke Nukem Forever made it into the top 20 games of 2011 at #17. The majority of people like this game, and this list just proves that the game is fucking awesome.
It was the combined opinions of a couple hundred thousand people, so I think that discredits all the reviews combined. In fact, all reviews are opinions, so in turn every review doesn't prove anything. However, some of these points these fucking reviewers are bringing up are just flat out lies. Broken gameplay? Please, it's not fucking broken. Boring platforming and driving? They offer a fun little break in the action, they're fun. Weapons not having impact? All lies.
No, it's not. I've played the game, and if they actually had legitimate reasons for not liking it, I would've accepted their opinions no problem, but half of the points they brought up are blatant fucking lies, and you would know that if you just played it for yourself. These shmucks at Gametrailers, IGN, Giant Bomb, Gamespot, Xplay, these self-proclaimed "critics" are responsible for telling you how to spend your money. This game gets a 5/10, and Sonic FR gets a 7/10.
Mainstream reviewers.....are....fucking....stupid. Remember IGN's review of Sonic Free Riders? That broken Kinect game where getting past the goddamn menu was a chore? 7/10. Remember the MW3 review? 9/10. Remember the Final Fantasy 13 review? That piece of shit game with horribly linear game-play and one of the worst combat systems I've ever seen in any game? 8/10. Stop embarrassing yourself.
I know what Metacritic is dumbass. It's a compiliation of mainstream reviewers giving scores on a certain game. All mainstream reviewers are bullshit however, as Dragon Age 2 recieved a Metacritic score of 9/10, and that game, sucked my balls.
Well the rating system for that user scoring is fucked up beyond belief. The average user score for the PC version of Duke Nukem Forever was 5/10, even though the number of positive reviews was twice the number of negative reviews. Something's fucked up there if the positive reviews are double the negative and yet it still gets an average user score of 5/10.

@microsf121 thats for the console versions which do suck ass
But have we really forgotten how the scoring system works?
A 5 doesnt mean a bad game
Its a mediocre game
Gamers dont apreciate the overall quality of the experience rather they measure its polish and yes as much as i enjoyed DNF it is a rough experience due to its painfull development cycle
We all wanted the game to have been alot better but it really couldnt have
In todays day and age, mediocre can be interpreted as bad. For a $60 game you would expect more than a game that relies on somewhat funny dialouge to make up for the atrocious gameplay.
The main problem I had with the game is that the trailer released back in 2001 showed a completly different game. Where's THAT game, that's what I want to play.
So many people who fall for this rubbish. So many people who think that merely having a different theme makes it different to cod when it doesn't. THIS GAME IS'NT DUKE NUKEM. This duke's an imposter. The real duke wouldn't allow any weapon limits, regenerating health, or turret sections in his games. You should all be ashamed of yourselves for thinking this game is good
Yeah, but contrary to popular belief, SS isn't exactly old school itself. True old school games didn't have waves and waves and waves of a bunch of bad guys thrown your way on a completely flat and open landscape. Old school shooters were corridor shooters in which the challenge came from smart level design and enemy placement.
ironically enough the last game i played whos shooting mechanics and level design were reminiscent of games like Doom quake and DN3D was actually Bioshock if you can believe it
Im not referring to Sam as an old school feel because it isnt old school(more like old school custom maps if you wanna get technical about it)
Im referring to it because what it does best is magnitude which Duke can really use in the next game
Actually, it's nothing like COD. All COD does is funnel enemies down a straight path for you to kill. Duke Nukem Forever employs actual level design. Enemies with different weapons, attacks and attack patterns (Pig Cops run, gun and flank, Octobrains circle strafe at varied speeds, Jetpack Troopers teleport...) smart enemy placement (example, there's a part where you see three Pig Cops, so you rush at them and two Octobrains jump out of the water behind you)
@sergeantpepper42 The gameplay is not duke but the character is still all there. The game isn't GOOD but its not entirely bad either. The game engine itself is actually really fluent and plays quite good, its just that the game keeps wanting to interrupt you for story chunks or puzzle. This game would have been amazing if it was like old school duke formula. I bought this cause i thought there would be a map editor for this sort of thing but sadly no. Its just gonna die off.
@sergeantpepper42 Who the fuck cares, be grateful they even made another game in the series. This game has many things that the previous one didn't even have, enjoy it instead you spoilt little brat.
@Jayday12345678910 Because they would've lost their entire fanservice if no new game from the series would be released. Besides, just because the reviewers didn't expect the game to turn out as they wanted it to doesn't mean that the game in general sucks. New gamers (like me) would probably like this game as it resembles games of today. But for veterans, tough luck for you.
Looks like IGN fans still no absolutely nothing about games, like mr. sergeantpepper limp dick over here. Oh, it wasn't exactly like the old one? Well it was never trying to be like it in the first place you ignorant minded fanboy. You wanna bash a game that DID actually market itself off as a sequel to the old one and turned out to be a piece of shit? Go flame Dragon Age 2. It's still a good game, it's nothing like COD. Shut the fuck up.
@sergeantpepper42 wow douche, maybe duke nukem should still be 2D and 8-bit to satisfy you. IGN (and most other mainstream review sites like Gamespot) are often blatantly forgiving or harsh in their reviews depending on which gaming companies are popular and/or paying (mostly paying) them at the time. It's not the same as Duke Nukem 64 and thankfully different from that Zero Hour-pile of crap. It sure as hell wasn't the next Halo but Duke Nukem Forever was pretty damn good.
IGN critiscise graphics in this, but they gave skyward sword a 10. They continue to give the modern warfare games near perfect scores while ignoring games like battlefield.
This is a duke nukem game. We wanted one, we got one. So IGN need to take thier heads out of thier asses and enjoy it.
@theawesomemark1 I agree with that... Look at CoD, that game doesnt bring anything new to the table, Its more like an 0.5 update instead of a full sequel and you can bet on it that the next one will make lots of cash and it doesnt even have to do anything. While games like like DNF have to work their ass off. DNF gaved me this nostalgic atmosphere that I loved and missed past these years, sure the game looks like shit but if its fun and thats what counts.
@AshPeace exactly. DNF is pure fun,its nostalgic, its awesome. But IGN don't like it because its not modern wafare. I'd bet good money that the next cod will get at least a 9 despite nothing changing AGAIN.
@theawesomemark1 DNF does have its downside, for example its interactions are sometimes so crappy or simply not working well that in makes you rage. Another thing is that because of games like CoD the game changed, for example the running or the number of weapons you can carry is just (facepalm). If DNF would not be aware of the gaming world of today, we would have a Great Oldschool title that would be simply epic, yet we didnt, its a fun game but, well, could have been better.
@AshPeace yes it had its downsides, but so does every game. Battlefield 3s campaign could've been better, skyrim has bugs and glitches, saints row 3 had 2 endings which could confuse saints row 4 and also killed of the only character left from the original, and call of duty had all the same problems from last year because its the same game.
Yeah this game could've been better, but it was still great, and IGN are making it out to be shit when its actually really fun.
This game is BADASS you are a dumbass with no sexual sense of humor and that's why you hate it this game has decent graphics and its awesome what system was the first duke nukem on
It's all about the babes. I mean, it cool and all, but it just gets vulgar after a while. But don't criticize him for narcissism an one-liners, it's what makes him somewhat appealing. I'd give it a 6.5 to a 7.
i love clicking on ign reviews and seeing all the dislikes and the comments about how bad cod is lol

You really need to open your eyes man, open your eyes and accept that the industry has gone way, way downhill.

I also find some of these reviewers' reasoning to be downright pathetic. Duke's personality? Oh, but every character in COD don't get points off for having no personality? Not to mention, they talk more about how they don't like Duke's personality, than they do about how the game is actually bad. They talk for like two minutes about the actual gameplay mechanics, then hardly even explain why they are bad anyways.

I really feel bad for you guys, like really bad. You actually believe the same people that gave Dragon Age 2 a 9/10 are telling the truth about this game. Lack of colors and artistic flare? Doesn't that apply to every military shooter ever? The " drawn out filler" as he so describes it, is just there to break up the action and add a little variety, most of these sequences are only five to ten minutes long, by no means "drawn out",and they actually require you to figure out stuff with your BRAIN!

@wasup265 DNF kept getting delayed because the original developer wanted to copy features from trending video games at the time. Including HL2's physics. The problem is that DNF created these sections just to show them off and did so haphazardly. Play HL2 then play DNF and you will see the difference.
Jayday12345678910 1 week ago
@Jayday12345678910
Duke Nukem Forever did NOT get delayed just to copy off other games you simpleton. I do not see the difference between the puzzles in Half Life 2 and this. In fact, the puzzles are even easier to figure out in Half Life 2 than in Duke Nukem Forever. Besides, games copy each other all the time. I loved the first person platforming and driving sections in Duke Nukem Forever and Half Life. Forever didn't exactly copy them either (except for one or two.)
wasup265 1 week ago
@wasup265 I don't think you understand that DNF did not execute those mechanics the same way HL2 did. DNF copied those things from HL2 but did not do them properly.
Jayday12345678910 1 week ago
@Jayday12345678910
How exactly did they not use them properly? Also, it's incorrect to say that 3DRealms copied Half Life 2, they had a game called Prey out at the time, that was made in the same style. FPS platforming, puzzles, and vehicle sections to break up the shooting, it was all in Prey. Duke Nukem Forever also has different level design than Half Life 2, and the first person platforming is set up in different ways.
wasup265 1 week ago
@wasup265
Prey came out about 2 years after Half Life 2. It was much like DNF, a long project that got passed around to a couple of studios before seeing the light of day. It eventually was released using the ID Tech 4 engine (Doom 3) and suffered from performance issues on anything but PC. It had a pretty original story though.
EVS2585 1 week ago
@EVS2585
So, how exactly does this make Duke Nukem Forever bad? Also, the variety? The enemy placement and level design keeps it from getting stale. Did we play the same game? The level design and enemy placement is constantly putting you in new situations, throwing enemies at you from different directions and later combined enemy types that combine to create a better challenge. The charging pig cops combined with shotgun pig cops followed by enforcers and an assault commander? Yes!

I would play this any day over COD or Halo. Modern day shooters lack what Duke Nukem Forever has and nobody seems to notice it; level design. Duke Nukem Forever puts you in new situations and puts enemies in places you'd least expect them to come charging after you from. Most modern shooters just have the same enemies charge at you from one single direction with a cover system. No thought, no challenge, no fun. Total shit.
wasup265 1 week ago
No, that does not make sense. There are TONS of series with still strong fanbases of series with no games coming out in a while e.g. Earthbound/Mother (mother 3 came out more than 10 years after 2 and had a LONGER development time than DNF and still came out as an excellent product). Reviews didn't say this game sucks because it wasn't like they expected they say it sucks because it DOES. I saw a shit ton of used copies of this game and ones that were discounted 2weeks after the release.

People are criticizing this for feeling like a relic, a 2001 game if you will. That is incorrect. It is wrong to negatively criticize a game for feeling like a relic. If it is simply made in the style of a game from that era,it is wrong to say that as a negative.Does a movie reviewer have any right to call a film a piece of shit because it was made in the style of a fifties black and white Noire film? Just because we have moved past that type of gameplay, does not make it bad.
wasup265 1 week ago
I agree that criticizing this game for feeling old is unfair, especially if we consider the 12 year production "cycle". We can only speculate about what the various producers did with that time and who is really to blame. However, that is not why I ultimately felt disappointed by this game. If I were to pick my biggest gripe with this game, it would be the lack of "oomph" and variety in gun-play and enemies. Duke or no Duke, the core mechanics bothered me more than any lame rape joke.

@kea919306
Yeah, but contrary to popular belief, SS isn't exactly old school itself. True old school games didn't have waves and waves and waves of a bunch of bad guys thrown your way on a completely flat and open landscape. Old school shooters were corridor shooters in which the challenge came from smart level design and enemy placement.

@wasup265 oh yeah i know that
ironically enough the last game i played whos shooting mechanics and level design were reminiscent of games like Doom quake and DN3D was actually Bioshock if you can believe it
Im not referring to Sam as an old school feel because it isnt old school(more like old school custom maps if you wanna get technical about it)
Im referring to it because what it does best is magnitude which Duke can really use in the next game
kea919306 2 weeks ago
@sergeantpepper42
Actually, it's nothing like COD. All COD does is funnel enemies down a straight path for you to kill. Duke Nukem Forever employs actual level design. Enemies with different weapons, attacks and attack patterns (Pig Cops run, gun and flank, Octobrains circle strafe at varied speeds, Jetpack Troopers teleport...) smart enemy placement (example, there's a part where you see three Pig Cops, so you rush at them and two Octobrains jump out of the water behind you)

@sergeantpepper42 The gameplay is not duke but the character is still all there. The game isn't GOOD but its not entirely bad either. The game engine itself is actually really fluent and plays quite good, its just that the game keeps wanting to interrupt you for story chunks or puzzle. This game would have been amazing if it was like old school duke formula. I bought this cause i thought there would be a map editor for this sort of thing but sadly no. Its just gonna die off.
