@TheDukenator Interesting, I thought it was all scripted. In any case, I'm hoping they'll at least salvage some of the things for a sequel. There were some great ideas on display here, and I don't want to see them go to waste.

@TheBreadcrab From Gearbox's 'DNF in 2001' thread: The trailer was not 100% scripted. There were portions of it that were scripted to look like gameplay, but a lot of it was playable.
But, this version of the game was a very, very early build. Roughly a pre-alpha build. With (according to Scott) only about 20 percent of it done.
The reason they "faked" things in the trailer was to show what could be possible. As a form of proof of concept, what they were aiming for gameplay wise.

I'm still waiting for the game that this trailer promised. Even if I have to wait forever.
-
glad they waited

looks like shit, what are you talking about

@TrewstuffMusic Actually, a dev cleared this up. The game wasn't near halfway, but 70% of this trailer was implemented and playable, including the Riot shield, motorcycle, boat, and shrink ray.

I hated all those fuckers who would say 3DR KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE DOING whenever i saw a questionable design choice from DNF. THE DEVS ARENT FUCKING GODS, THEY ARE PEOPLE JUST LIKE US. Just because they have the means to make a game doesn't mean they understand what makes a good game.

@kea919306 I'm just tired of all the shooter bullshit being released and nearly everyone being a graphics whore...I could go on. But I don't think it's okay to excuse Duke for copying shitty elements of other games. Just because every other game is doing it doesn't make it okay. It's like that shit where your parents said,"Well, if everyone else jumped off a bridge..." The fault is on the creators. It's on their shoulders to make a good game, not turn out the same old shooter shit.
Why wasn't DNF released as this? This looks amazing for it's time. Yet Broussard "thought it wasn't good enough"? Fuck you George Broussard. You are the biggest douche of the industry along with Bobby Kottick, Peter Molyneux, and Peter Moore. The final product isn't the worst game ever, however after looking at this trailer again, a lot of things seem to be same as the final project. This old code must still be out there. Someone needs to find it and release it in it's original form.

This version looks badass. It even had a different story. The aliens were actually parasites which infected citizens and EDF soldiers, turning them into monsters. Wouldn't it be cool to defend both yourself and other innocents from contamination? And what did we get instead? A "Cycloid Empire Strikes Back" kind of story with no emotional impact, humourless jokes and dull linear levels...
