[quote name="Fussbett"]Since we all enjoyed <a href="http://www.caltrops.com/pointy.php?action=viewPost&sid=1&pid=39903" target="steamvalve">George's look into interactive fun/gameplay elelments</a>, you may also enjoy hearing about the time INC and I spent an hour laughing at one Broussard thread. Sparked by that day Caltrops discovered <a href="http://www.failmath.com" target="fail">failmath.com</a>, which had a piece about George Broussard... <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> <BLOCKQUOTE>5.) Any decision or "leanings" regarding attending e3 2004 in may? I don't think we care about E3 anymore and may never go again.</BLOCKQUOTE> <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> George Broussard <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> WOW! Take THAT, E3. <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> I think maybe someone forgot to invite them to E3 <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> They probably can't go to E3 anymore because there is a limit on how many times you can show a game. <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> Link? <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> <a href="http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=496648&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=93&fpart=1" target="horrible">George, a few minutes of your time please!</a> <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> <BLOCKQUOTE>6.) Will the instructions be in color?</BLOCKQUOTE> <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> Is this guy retarded? <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> yeah, I'm not sure if that was supposed to be funny <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> like, "Here's a softball question for you..." <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> <BLOCKQUOTE>7.) Any type of multiplayer up and running yet? It has been in the past. We're focusing on single player at the moment and more efforts will be spent on mutliplayer in a bit.</BLOCKQUOTE> <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> read: no! <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> We had it running on version 3 of DNF <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> we're on version 12 now <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> ...so multiplayer is out again. We hope to get multiplayer back in near version 14 <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> then take it out of version 16 for final tuning, then release it with patch #4 <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> <BLOCKQUOTE>1. How great will the AI, both single-player and bots be when DNF is finally released? Everyone overhypes AI, ya know? All we want to do is provide bad guys that are interesting to fight, and that's don't do dumb things (run into walls, or other glaring errors). In this day and age, flocking, squad behavior and the rest, are all pretty common place.</BLOCKQUOTE> <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> George didn't fall into the TRAP of that loaded question. No admission that the AI is great. <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> oh, look, they're waiting for THX certification <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> that's probably the delay <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> <BLOCKQUOTE>5.How far will you go with multiplayer modes? Basic DM, CTF, etc., or a range similar to UT2K4? (Not what modes there will be, but how creative you want to get with them) UT2K4 took a full team a year and a half to develop. I think it's fair and safe to say that we won't go as far as they did in multiplayer. We just don't have the time or team size to do that.</BLOCKQUOTE> <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> haha <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> can he possibly say that with a straight face? <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> "We didn't have time." <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> Hey, if they overextend themselves, DNF might miss the release date. <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> I'm just reading every Broussard post now. Gold! <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> <BLOCKQUOTE>I just want to know if we can trust statements made by Take 2 as well as RockStar games when it comes to Duke Nukem Forever? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- They haven't even seen the game in over a year. In general you can only trust us when it comes to accurate info about the game. </BLOCKQUOTE> <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> Rockstar/Take2 has given up on the game. They just don't care. <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> I think they're probably not even aware it's stil l being developed. <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> <BLOCKQUOTE>2) I remember at some points in 2001, you said "IF DNF ships...". Is there still a chance you won't release the game or are you confident you will definately ship it one day? I think those "if" comments were jokes </BLOCKQUOTE> <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> I don't think he's sure they were jokes. <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> <BLOCKQUOTE>What amazes me about you George is your attitude towards a good game. You are the only man that I have ever seen work this hard for perfection. I would compare your working on games to me spending 6 hours washing my car. I want that car to be god damn perfect and i am always noticing imperfections. That is why I love you and 3drealms in general. A good game isn't good enough for you guys. You don't want just another fps, but a masterpiece. Not only do you guys want the best fps of all time, but to make the greatest game of all time.</BLOCKQUOTE> <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> world's scariest fan <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> "I would compare your working on games to me spending 6 hours washing my car." -- Which is insane, EXCEPT washing a car for 6 hours is LESS insane than spending 10 years on Duke Nukem. <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> yeah, plus he finally stopped. <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> at least this week. <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> <BLOCKQUOTE>3. What was the reactions of the new Hired developers when they saw DNF in action? Amazed huh ? I never speak for other people. I suspect they thought we would be farther along than we were at the time. But things are going very well now.</BLOCKQUOTE> <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> Oh man. Brutal. <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> if I were Broussard, I guess I would be doing all I could to lower expectations too. <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> <BLOCKQUOTE>What about grass, bushes and palms that look so cool in Far Cry for example ? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Instead of asking that, ask if Far Cry has the __________, ____, _____, ______ & _______ that DNF has</BLOCKQUOTE> <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> Does Far Cry have the release date that DNF has? <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> "Why don't you ask why Far Cry doesn't have the MYSTERIOUS SECRETS that Duke Nuke'm has?" <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> George fails to realize that you actually have to show people something in order for them to compare it. <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> People are UNRIGHTFULLY holding Far Cry in high esteem. Those crazies. What's so special about it? <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> Oh yeah, IT'S FINISHED <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> yeah, the only reason people are playing Far Cry instead of the vastly superior DNF is because it's out <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> Far Cry sucks compared to 2006's DNF. <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> It's like comparing Doom to Quake. With just as much time in between. <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> "We're in the enviable position of lauching our product last so that we can capitalize on what our competition has done before us" <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> "As such we plan on launching last EVER. It will be the last PC game released. We're just waiting to hear if iD will be doing a Doom 4" <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> "Then we strike" <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> "Then we're going to kill John Carmack and Cliffy B." <font color="lightblue">INC:</font> "We'll be putting that in the game, too." <font color="yellow">Sanitario666:</font> "Time permitting."[/quote]
