Duke Nukem Forever

[Web Master]

Saw some of the opening gameplay it just outright made me laugh, in a good way, hoping to see more to come.

as release date is approaching ive been starting to worry if steam will be getting duke or if i should go ahead and preorder from somewhere else.

so i googled, this is pretty old post but its awesome that there using steam works for server browsing and such.

I think they made one 10 years ago.

just finished getting 100% achievements my glory moment

insane and gun slinger acheivements at the same time

[Light Of Darkness]

DLed the demo
Disappointed because I can only have 2 weapons at a time.

[Stephen]

the demo isnt a very good example of the fun factor of the full game

the 2 gun limit is geared towards increasing difficulty and to prevent op players who greif

You could have more than 2 guns in unreal tournament and it was well balanced.

[Stephen]

but the fact is even though you could pick up all the guns everyone would only end up using 1 or 2 of them anyways

so instead of mapping all these guns from 0-9 they instead took other key items and placed them there for easier access 1-6

[Avatar]

so if everyone has those 1-2 guns, i dont really see the issue then.

and you can access those guns with the mouse wheel or alternatively just bind them to other functions, doesnt have to be 0-9 because thats pretty downs syndrome for an fps to have to do that.


i hope your rationale for not having more than 2 guns seriously isn't the 0-9 thing.

[Stephen]

well if you played you would know that once you pick up a gun it wont respawn till that player loses it so not everyone gets the 1 or 2 good guns

thus having pretty well every weapon in 1 or 2 players inventory

yahtzee said it was bad. ergo i didnt play it.

For those patient enough to wait, DNF is now $6.79 during the Thanksgiving sale.
