LET'S ROCK

I fucking miss the based Duke
He need a comeback
But first lets take him away from Gearbox' filthy grasp

Yeah, please. No remake until Randy is a million miles away from the king.

Shake it baby!

I decided to replay all the game, it's still a great FPS. The battlelord are one of the most bullshit ennemy ever conceived. Whitout civvie video i would have never guess you were supposed to shot them in their leg with the shrinker.

Heheheh
What a mess.

Post your favorite Duke song besides Grabbag / Stalker.

>Duke mocking Mario and Doom in the "land of forgotten toys" of Nuclear Winter
Now that's funny

Playing without the shrinker is a lot more fun honestly. It's a fun concept, but it's just way too powerful and has way too much ammo so it ends up being the "lmao I win" button for any fights that don't involve a shitload of those fucking kamikaze drones (the actually worst Duke3D enemy).
>you were supposed to shot them in their leg with the shrinker
That's more of a shonky hitbox issue than anything, the shrinker balls tend to behave weirdly in places.

AND KICK BUBBLEGUM!
AND I'M ALL OUT OF PENIS!

AAAAWUUUUUH

I ain't afraid of no quake.

I still hope that the faggot of Randy makes a DRM-free release of World Tour.

The last thing going through your mind will be my size 11 boot!

Duke always came through with his promises

Randy is a money hungry con-I mean business man. He will never do anything that makes him less money, like allow the World Tour episode to be playable on Duke source ports.

Is the Duke on Steam worth buying? I remember people bitching about it.

Either that one or this.

youtube.com/watch?v=IplkAJN01KU

No. It has garbage audio that actually degraded all sound effects other than Duke's voice, and all the new voice clips are poorly directed. Duke doesn't have the bite in his tone, it's all goofy.

Just pirate Megaton Edition.

One thing I admired about Duke 3D is that every single level had its own unique track.

Time to Kill is more of a Tomb Raider game than a Duke game. I hate the jumping physics and level layouts. Why would you ever program a "Holster weapon" button in a Duke Nukem game? Zero Hour felt more like Duke 3D, but from over the shoulder. I kind of feel bad for the folks who grew up playing Time to Kill.

m8, Duke 3D has a 'holster weapon' button.

What? No it doesn't.

World Tour has no shelf life left. He could release a DRM-free in Humble in addition to the Steam key to get money from the anti-DRM crowd.

>pirate world tour
>new maps are great but the audio is terrible and the port is worse than eduke32
thanks randy you fucking nigger

Sorry, page 17.

Bizarre. There's no in game purpose for such a thing. Except maybe for screenshots. And even then that would be pointless to include in a third person game.

Damn.

Yeah, piece of cake.
YEAH, PIECE OF CAKE.
YEAH, PIECE OF CAKE!
YEYEYEYEYEYEYEYEYEYEYEYEYEYE

Could be useful in multiplayer to let someone know you're not fighting and are trying to chat or go afk?

Not possible. Duke only has one series of sprites viewable from all angles and they all look like they're holding the RPG. It's probably the biggest downside to Build games. You don't know what weapon your enemy has equipped except a toggle that makes it visible over their heads.

Always bet on Duke

Is buying the world tour edition worth it just for the new episode?

Despite never having played Total Meltdown I fucking love the soundtrack.

Despite what some might say about World Tour as a whole, the new episode is great.

If you're cool with giving Randy blow funds, sure.

Don't give Randy any money please. I don't suggest it often, but pirate it if you must.

Its worth playing but pirate it instead because fuck Randy.

What's the best way to play DK3D now?

in the art there's Dook with all those great-looking weapons, and in the game the guns are kinda underwhelming. Aways got mad over that

Me too man, me too

>tfw really enjoyed episode 2
>go online and apparently thats the episode everyone hated
I guess I just have a soft spot for sci-fi because thought the journey to the moon was cool as fuck. The kamikaze drones didn't bother me nearly as much as all of the annoying hitscan enemies.

Legally speaking? World Tour or buying the Atomic edition on Xbox Live Arcade or Zoom Platform. Illegally? Pirate the Megaton Edition.

I bought it off G2A
Fuck you Randy

Does Megaton have lan?

probably bc you never ventured further than Piece of Cake

Most Duke fans just enjoy the city/urban atmosphere over the space stuff.

2 had some cool levels but it had some pretty shit ones too, and the drones annoy the fuck out of me, and I'm not one to get that bothered by lost souls in Doom. I liked 3 the best. 4 was cool besides the tanky new aliens.

This song always had a "you've come far and are close to your goal" feel to it, especially considering how much of a slog Lunar Apocalypse was.

Actually I played on Come Get Some

:^)

I like Sci-Fi stuff too, but what set Duke apart from games like Doom was that rooms felt like they had purpose and emulated things from real life, like bars and strip clubs and whatnot. Episode 2 is the most like the days in Doom where rooms just "exist" and there's no real rhyme or reason that anchors you to Duke's world. It's still good though.

And yes there definitely are too many suicide drones, too.

The only room that REALLY bothered me in episode 2 was the one with 3 fucking battlelords. What the fuck were they thinking with that shit? Had no idea you could just use the shrinker to trivialize them at that point either so I just had to keep quickloading until I got lucky.

the Shrinker is a crutch. You can be casual and make the boss battle anticlimatic as hell using it, if you want to. Wich is cool since a lot o people wouldn't even bother playing that episode otherwise.

Imagine if Duke had a linear campaign instead of episodes you can just skip ientirely? Many would hate having to pass trough it to play the rest.

everyone posts that song, but have you heard the zero hour OST?

Shrink Ray doesn't work on true bosses, anyways. It only works on the mini versions who are semi-common in levels. This would all be balanced out if the shrink ray had a low ammo cap and ultra-rare ammo. Unfortunately it gives you fucking 50 shots which is just absurd. But at least they don't want to limit peoples' fun I guess.

Yep. Have you heard these?

Based!

the 2nd one is aight. the western theme sux tho. zero hour had western and alien themed music, but it all sux ass.

DESU the 'street' levels were always my favorite in the duke nukem series.

streets - god tier
space - good tier
mountain - meh tier
alien ship - shite tier

even on normal enemies, it takes a few shots to shrink the larger opponents. actually I rarely use the shrink ray, ever

There's no gauge for the number of times an enemy has been shot with shrink ray. Either you hit them in the center of their sprite and it works, or you were off center and it fails. You should be able to shrink even battle lords in one shot if you do it correctly.

>>there will never be another duke game
oh there will be, Randy is not done yet

It's a crutch and if you want to enjoy fighting big guys like floating commanders, you'll avoid using it. But it is a supremely useful weapon if you only care about weapon utility.

Ya.

Hurry up and release already. I just beat Amid Evil and I need more.

I catch myself humming Liberty or Death to this day. What a catchy song.

You'll trigger the moddb autist!

wait what? I swear I would shoot it at the big guys and they would just do a 'pain' animation, indicating it was damaging them instead of shrinking them.

Dont make me redownload duke 3D to prove it lol

It really isn't that bad

Maybe they do play a "pain" animation, but it doesn't matter how many times you fail to shrink them. You can shrink a mini Battlelord in 1 shot if your aim is correct. I stand by this.

It just happened to me in episode 2 with those 2 battlelords. I had to use Holoduke and pray for the best. I won, after 4 tries.

Excited to play this. Been loving all the shooters that have been coming out or are coming out soon

When the title music started playing with that image, it kind of felt like it was a midpoint between Duke 3D and Oni. And it took considerable effort not to jizz my pants at the thought of it.

If those fucking jews from Iron Maiden weren't demanding 2 million for them using a name alike that of a torture device from the Middle Ages wich they named their band with the same name, it probs would've been out by now.

Hope it won't go to shit like 3D Reloaded due to kikery.

What about that Lawsuit?

They haven't slowed working on Ion Maiden. And if anything comes of it, maybe they'll undergo a name change, but I can't imagine anything more would happen.

Honestly, I think it's a dumb name and don't care if they call it anything else.

Iron Maiden lawyers have basically no real case, so we'll see. I'm holding out hope, and the devs have said they're still working on, and almost finished with, the game, so I'm optimistic.

I agree but it's not good either. It's just a mediocre HL2 clone at best. Some parts of the dlc expansion are decent.

Duke World Order was pretty good.

I'm mostly disgusted at the "swap weapon" mechanic the game was built around. They built this game like they had no faith in Duke's own game design, and instead opted for console trash shooters like Halo. Then it pretends to shit on Halo while acting like it's a better core game. Fuck you George Brussard.

What is it with people standing up for the obvious worst game in a series with pithy things like "it's not THAT bad, c'mon guys." It doesn't have to be "that bad" to still be a big piece of shit.
If it was the only first person shooter you ever played it's not the worst but compared to ANYTHING of quality it's a bigger turd than the ones you can PICK UP AND INTERACT WITH WHO THOUGHT THAT WAS FUNNY

You should see what he does to the boss of episode 5.
