DNF Gameplay: An In Depth Look
A lustful fellow by the name of ShepMode asked us to put together an article based on everything we know from the recently release footage. My immediate thought was, "I'm too lazy to do this shit," but then I thought about how Duke was in a bad, bad mood, and I didn't want to piss off one of his fans because who knows what he'd do to me. So I scavenged through a longass thread in search of answers, and then I saw three little piggies (actually it was the same pig in three different shots) that some guy who sported the name "NineT9 mustang" posted in the said thread. So you know what I did? I stole them is what I did. Posted them shits right down below. Sue me.
There were other things in the footage of course, but I just thought the ones above stood out because they really gave you a nice (or the closest thing to nice given all we have is scrappy off-screen footage because George is stingy with media releases) depiction of the Pig Cop, which appears to be holding a chaingun. More screenshots of the footage can be found in the same thread and also in an earlier news item we posted here; however, in all honsety, I think you should just watch the damn video if you want to see more. But when it comes to details, this news item is for you. Anyway, moving along, up next I found some interesting screenshots with words written all over them. Apparently, TaloS had a lot of free time on his hands, just like me; his analysis is quite interesting and worthy of a die-hard Duke fan's attention, especially one with no life such as myself:
The last shot is by NineT9 mustang. And some speculative commentary by Unbeholder on the weapon shots:
Before I end this news item I'd also like to put in my two cents about the game's menu: The menu screen can in no way be final AT ALL. In fact, not only is it not final, it's totally different from what the finished product will be. It's just a temp GUI they put together so they can access the game's settings without entering console commands. That's my personal opinion. Anyway, thanks to the guys who made this analysis possible--they're all mentioned above.
1. (Chainsaw, Golden Desert Eagle.)
2. (Duke Shotgun, Ripper Chaingun.)
3. RPG, devastator, tactical nuke.
4. Tripmine, pipebomb.
5. Shrink ray, (Freeze Thrower, Microwave expander.)
6. Jetpack, Holoduke, Duke vision.
