Caltrops - Duke Nukem Forever





	[quote name="Fussbett"][18:36] Ray of Light: Hungarian notation sucks. We hate it and we'll hate you for trying to bring it into the project. [18:36] Sanitario666: DNF's long wait: explained. Variable confusion. [18:37] Ray of Light: DNF versions 3 through 6 used hungarian notation. HUGE cock-up. We won't go THERE again [18:40] Sanitario666: Once we ditched the Quake 2 engine, Hungarian notation went with it. This is TEXAS for the love of Pete! [18:40] Ray of Light: Later that night we fired guns into the sky [18:40] Sanitario666: George has spent the last 6 months developing a Texan Notation. It's almost ready. [18:41] Ray of Light: That will allow them complete the puzzle, by hiring a programmer to, you know, write the game [18:43] Sanitario666: That there is still someone they need to write OMG HELL YES moments is frightening. [18:44] Sanitario666: Gameplay programming. Gameplay: not yet programmed. [18:44] Sanitario666: Beta testing in 2006? [18:44] Ray of Light: And they demand that gamers scream that. It's a tall order [18:44] Sanitario666: I guess this means the engine is done. [18:44] Sanitario666: That's a relief. [18:44] Ray of Light: Gamma testing: 2018 [18:45] Ray of Light: Maybe they've figured a way to make money from anticipation alone. [18:46] Ray of Light: An interview one year, a job listing the next, just enough to keep things simmering, and they're laughing all the way to the bank [18:46] Sanitario666: What DNF really showcases is how much obscene money Duke Nukem 3D made. [18:46] Sanitario666: It can support 30 people for ten years.[/quote]
