Things you may have missed in the DNF video:
-In the scene where the gunner shoots down the curtains, there is a picture of Duke with a tie and tux on.
-When Duke rides in the Purple Pimpmobile, the winshield has an abbreviation of "Pimpin' ain't easy". (PMPN8EZ)
-The Pimpmobile driver has a tattoo of an arachnid on his shoulder
-Duke's laser rifle tells him: Rifle Uplink: OK
-At the Nevada EDF facility, a car runs a stop sign
-In the EDF, there is a "No Smoking" sign and General Graves grips a smoldering stogie.
-While riding a donkey, a sign can be seen that says: "Do Not Feed The"... ?
-The Terminator-like robot was built by the EDF, not Dr. Proton or the aliens.
-When the jet crashes into the building, the console has 2 spelling mistakes: "incomming" and "emergancy".
-The truck Duke rides under on his bike has a very strange picture of ??? on it.
(UPDATE- The picture on the truck is a matador standing in front of a bull head. Thanks go to Sharp_Invasion and Depp.)
-The lock on the door getting broken down in the Lady Killer is made by CyTEX (Tex, Texas, get it?)
-Duke sees the Mona Lisa, suggesting he goes to the Louvre, but she looks like she has sunglasses on.
I hope I didn't forget anything...
Well, how many did you see?

More stuff to look out for:
-Shrinker runs on a brain instead of crystals. (Octabrain brain?)
-When Duke shoots at the jetskiers, there is a gauge that reads: BARREL TEMP
And yes, I did keep pausing it and pressing enter to view it frame by frame. images/icons/grin.gif

if you didnt figure it out it is the barrel temperature and if it overheats it could do something weird. That in a duke nukem game?
SpaceCow

Some very interesting stuff there, indeed. Good work. That "Barrel temp" stuff and other stuff suggests that Duke will have lots of little mini games, which is of course cool and something to definetly look out for.

Before, I even look again, I'm gonna have to ask the obvious question...

-When Duke punches in a code on the number pad, a message starts to display on the HUD
-Even the name of the unfortunate late Mr. Doug Myers is misspelled.

Good eye though.
There is something special about 'Lady Killer'.
Lets look at the facts:
1) In the e3 2001 trailer, the We're-All-Gonna-Die lady has a shirt that says 'Lady Killer'.
2) In that same picture of the woman with Lady Killer on her shirt, LK is grafittied into the back of a chair.
3) Lady Killer is projected on the ground in THIS (http://whateverblackhat.homestead.com/files/duke.gif) picture.
4) Lady Killer is also on the side of the building in the e3 2001 trailer that gets blown up by some jets missile towards the end therefore telling us its the name of a building.

Actually, I've been playing around with that pic in photoshop, and I've become convinced that where the two bright vertical lines end, there is a difference in color which continues downwards to the visible legs. What appear to be cartoon legs, are probably actually, just the lower portion of the legs. The bright vertical lines, would be like frills down the sides of the pants, on a really gay outfit images/icons/smile.gif
The part, which, look like shoulders on a cartoon (but those are a little to curved to be even cartoon arms) is actually a seperate image, BEHIND the character.
Once you see that... the rest of that blob starts to make a little more sense.

That's pretty much what I thought... also like look like a bit of infulence from 'the fly'.
Maybe that has something to do with the storyline? Peoples heads changing?
Another interesting thing, if you have a look at the 'arms', they look a bit like bull horns. I know it sounds wierd... but it's easier to visualise this if you look at it upside down.

Heres some more stuff:
1.) There apears to be some drink spilt on the floor next to the coke machine.
2.) When the stealth bomber hits the air control tower the keyboard and pen fly up into the air.
3.) The pinball game is 'balls of steel'.
4.) There's a bottle of wine behind the girl wearing the lady killer blouse.
5.) The motorbike's side-view mirrors actually work!
6.) The bug like creature that duke rips a leg off seems to have a serpantine body.
Although, there are lots of things that remain unclear:
1.)What do the left and right hand displays on the sniper rifle show.
2.)what does the spiral shaped gun do.
3.)What is the creature that tosses the small animal into the air (at the end of the video)

2)The control panel with the plane crashing says : "Request emergancy landing,low on fuel,..." so it seems like a cool mission images/icons/smile.gif
3)In the scene where the purple car stops verticaly it says : "Exect 25c(ents).".
4)A stain on the black guys shirt who's saying : Man , this things really pissed off!
5)Where the guy comes out limbing with fire in the background it says Restricted Area.

Well George recently hinted that the storyline changed a fair bit from the 98 version.
But it was a cryptic quote.
I would bet thats completely wrong because it looked like Duke was fighting a BOSS. You dont fight the boss for the firsttime you boot up the game.
http://webpages.charter.net/billyrueben1/truckimage.jpg
What if this image is reflecting what's behind Duke?
Let's say the truck is GLOSSY black. My PC case is glossy black (which I painted) and it reflects the floor VERY clearly. Perhaps this creature is chasing Duke? And behind the creature, it seems like a truck is following the creature.
Perhaps Duke is trying to get away?
I'm probably wrong. images/icons/smile.gif

This is especially noticeable when he slides out from the truck on the other side you can catch a glimpse of the eggs.

The penthouse of the Lady Killer (When the ship fires missiles at the sign) seems to have 4 windows shot out, like we saw at the start of the movie. I'm now convinced you start the game in the penthouse of the Lady Killer, which is where duke lives.

If you go to rad game tools (http://www.radgametools.com/) and download Bink video then you can use Bink to extract the individual frames from the video into whatever format you want (jpg, gif, bmp, etc) wether the video is in Bink or .mov format.

Sharp_Invasion,
That's very clear with your outline, I don't think there can be any doubt now that it's a matador and bull.
The scene where Duke grabs the sandwhich is in the same room where we see the posessed EDF guard rise to greet us towards the end of the video.
The coke machine and the garbage can on the side of the wall are proof.
ITS THE SAME ROOM!

I have no idea what that thing is on the side of the truck.
Those mispelled smacks are probably John Anderson's fault, but maybe Brian Cozzens. Brian is notoriously bad at mispelling words in art images/icons/smile.gif It's great when he finishes rendering a smacker after three hours and someone says "Hey Brian, you spelled "initializing" as "initalizing"
Poor guy. ;-)
_So_ much has changed since the video. But you guys will be very pleased.

Things I've found:
-The read-out on the left of the tube-skimmer says 'Next Stop Section 4'... has this been found before? I cant remember.
-With the shrink ray, the guards body upper torso shrinks before his legs.
-There's a blue glow coming for the terminators left hand. Electricity attack?
-The code Duke uses for the keypad is 2580. images/icons/smile.gif I'm not convinced that text-looking thing in the upper-left is a graphical bug... if you look closely you can see something else fading in slightly to the right of it for 3 frames.
- The penthouse of the Lady Killer (When the ship fires missiles at the sign) seems to have 4 windows shot out, like we saw at the start of the movie. I'm now convinced you start the game in the penthouse of the Lady Killer, which is where duke lives.
- The 'plantation' sign (When Duke's firing the cannon) is visible on the far-right of the screen when the 'Forbidden Paradise' building collapses.
Not really revolutionary finds... but hell... I'm competing here. images/icons/wink.gif

You guys DO realise you picked up dozen and dozens of things in every scene of the video yet those are only parts of scenes with mostly 1 view angle. Think of a game where theres that much every step of the way. To get it all you'll have to walk step by step looking in every direction in the game images/icons/tongue.gif
- Logic BomB
But also in this we have to think and brainstorm and connec the dots. In the game you can just walk over to a wall and read the sign or see the picture.

mmm...i haven't read the entire 3rd page of this thread yet, so we've probably figured it out, but here's my thoughts on the wierd picture on the side of the truck thingy that Duke slides under on the motorbike.
It's probably just me, and it makes no sense if u think about it images/icons/smile.gif , but I reckon it resembles a cartoony guy with his head thrown back after just being shot in the head. the splat is his brains n' blood, and the way his arms r thrown back just happen to look like bull horns?

* When General Graves is talking, you can see in the upper middle, sort of to the left a sign saying "Command Centre", with what initially looks like a map of the world...maybe I'm seeing things, but IMO, it's the Dopefish in the "side-on" swimming position.

Guys, think logically. A regular family compact car is probably light enough to be propelled by small jets or some sort of hovering device but a truck is still a heavy cargo-carrying vehicle which would require a huge hover-craft device so its cheaper and more efficient on wheels.
As for the motorcycle, it probably does have wheels. Its an F'in motorcycle!

At least in the future toll prices aren't that bad - upper right corner $0.25

And more evidence that Duke has a room in the Lader Killer. First up is from the panoramic view at the beginning, straight across from the Lady Killer. The second pic appears to show the same hotel/casino out the window and Duke's picture is hanging on the wall.

The code Duke uses for the keypad is 2580.
I think with all the errors/mistakes you guys have picked out by analysing the trailer of DNF, this will be the release date. I bet 3DR are like OMG look at all those mistakes - it must have added at least 6 months to the game development time. Not to mention the paranoia that will be circling through 3DR. If fans look this closely at DNF we better go back and check what we have been working on since the last video.
Thanks a lot guys graemlins/doh.gif
Mind you it shows that DNF is nowhere near ready and that the DNF video is just a put together thing of some of the ideas 3DR have been working on for DNF. It'll probably be totally different by now. And by the time they back track to fix the spelling mistakes etc, totally different again images/icons/grin.gif

I have to admit that when I first saw the image on the truck, I thought it was a shot at Serious Sam, a little payback for the phone call in SS.
It looked at first glance like the bomberman that runs around yelling "ahhhhhhh!!" and explodes when you shoot him, with a chicken head over his head which is exploding into pieces.
Probably way off, but it won't be the first time graemlins/doh.gif

As you can see the signs from the building from the beginning of the trailer and the part where duke is on his bike are identical. As are the buildings.
So it looks like the bike action takes place on the other side of the building we see near the start of the trailer.

About all the speculation of Duke owning the Lady Killer Casino....
I can't find the pic anwhere online, but from E3 2000, in the GodGames/T2 lot, there was a sign for a gambling tent that read "Duke Nukem's Lady Killer Casino - Las Vegas, NV"
It can't be influence from the video, since it came out a year later - I have a feeling that Duke owns it. Also...from the GodGames website:
Duke Nukem is back, and Vegas is his new playground. That is, until the aliens bust up the opening of Duke's new casino! <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Unless 3DR changed it around, Duke most likely owns the Lady Killer Casino.

It looks like the Casino will indeed be owned by Duke:
"Duke enjoys drinking more than Bond does," says the 24-year-old [Matt] Wood. "We figured he had the money. We thought, `What would he do with it?' We figured he would build a hotel.
We had already done Los Angeles. Vegas is, like, in the top three cool cities to do things in. You've got colorful lights, the colorful people, the casinos. It was a no-brainer. Duke, he didn't fit in anywhere else."

Speaking of the boat scenes, did anyone ever notice that scene here looks like a parody of the boat chase in the Bond flick 'Live and Let Die' ?
http://www.boomspeed.com/swaggak/dukeboat.jpg
^ Dukes’ boat is also white with red stripes, like the one Bond was riding in. You can also see a shed exploding in the background, which looks similar to what happened in Live and let die.
Also, Even though everyone knows about this one, but I'll post it up anyways. Dukes Golden Desert Eagle which looks similar to the Golden Gun.

For such a small panel, with so few words on it, and visible for such a short time in the vid... There sure are a lot of spelling errors there images/icons/smile.gif
I'm sure, with that many mistakes, they'd be nuts not to go over the whole game several times to eliminate all these little mistakes. But, you can never catch them all... I'm sure a few will slip past. images/icons/smile.gif

I wonder which ones they are using for text textures: animated textures with text permanently incorporated into them, or 'intelligent' ones in which you can change text by changing their atrributes (such as the score tab in UT's DM-Morpheus).
If they are using the second type, then it wouldn't be such a problem to correct spelling mistakes.

08-16-2002, 11:06 AM
I don't know if anyone noticed, but there is a nuke symbol on the golden doors Duke kicks open. It's half on one door and half on the other.
Also, the lit-up billboard was shown on the cars-with-no-wheels scene, The Pimpmobile driver was in a scene with wheels (Because pimpmobiles HAVE to have wheels!) and the driver gets shot on the billboard. Unless that was a DM model, I think that would dismiss the time-travel theory. There is probably a combination of wheelers and no-wheelers in the future.
Time travel is too confusing... images/icons/confused.gif I think I will take a nap now.

Sort of like the way the NSF in Deus Ex started out as the enemy until you found out UNATCO was bad and joined forces with the NSF. If that's the case, then we can make speculations about the storyline - especially with Graves talking about how the EDF has been compromised and you can't trust anyone...
Unless of course, it's a DM model as others have suggested, or placeholder art.

Umm... the basic aspect of the plot which we know is that people are turning into monsters... The chick at the ladykiller says so, and in several places we see people transformed, or in the process of transforming. It's clear this is a process which turns allies into enemies (which is likely why the EDF is 'compromised') Now look at the eyes of the guy on the billboard... Doesn't he look a bit zombified? He's clearly 'one of them'... Heck, I think his skin is a different color! It seems to me, the most obvious conclusion is that he was on your side for a time, but later was transformed, so you have to take him out. I doubt this would be the only case in the game where this happens.

Anyone remember the thread with the theory that General Graves' secretary was also the stripper at the end of the video? <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">...and I thought no one would believe me. images/icons/tongue.gif

Hehe...You people are picking this video apart like a piece of elephant dung. Yikers.
BTW... George, we would stop bugging you about the video/screenshots if you would just release a pre-release demo. We'd all be working our asses off playing it we wouldn't have TIME to bug you.

A couple more things:
1. On the ezVend machine... when Duke buys the sandwich there appears below the sandwich a text message on the machine in red that reads something like, "please take..." All I can make out definately is the word "please." When he takes the sandwich, the message dissapears.
2. When Duke is shooting the cannon at the pirate ship in the background you can see a big tower lit up with red/purple lights. Looks like the shape of the Stratosfear, from previous screenshots, but with different lighting. It's a longshot though... Kinda fuzzy and hard to tell WHAT it is exactly. images/icons/confused.gif
And anyone know what the hell is going on with that riot shield part? There's an auto-sentry in the picture, but where the hell is Duke standing? It looks like some kinda home decorating store or something... Duke ain't goin' queer is he? images/icons/wink.gif

Anyway, I had my billointh look at the vid again (still not bored of it images/icons/smile.gif ) and I noticed some things.
Did you notice...
- The tall purple-ish building in the background of the scene in which Duke shoots an old-fashioned cannon at a pirate ship. In my opion the shape of that building looks VERY much like the "StratosFear" builing in this http://www.3drealms.com/duke4/shots/DNF_Nov99_Stratosfear.jpg screenshot.
Coincidence? Imho it's not...
- When NPC's talk it's not just a blurry-red-and-black in their mouth like, but you can actually distinguish different teeth when they open their mouths wide enough! (strange that I didn't notice this before)
- The little meter under the letters "barrel temp" on the display of the gun on the ship actually goes up when duke shoots (like it should)
two other not so shocking details
- The secretary in the background of the
"graves"-scene is actually typing, so she's moving her arms up and down and etc. a bit.
- The sign above the doors in the background of the "hey-pal-what-are-you-gonna-do-?-scene" says "Restricted area" (the rest I can't read because it's too blurry in this vid).

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Oops, sorry Deadtech.
Looks like you beat me to it with one post exactly!
EDIT: DOH! And Sharp_invasion beat me to the barrel-temp-o-meter remark! I R So Retarded images/icons/grin.gif

That looks like a Dopefish coffee mug ^ graemlins/dopefish.gif images/icons/grin.gif <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">It's not. It's one of my coffee mugs from a now defunct burger place around here called "Judge Beans".
It's the same coffee cup that's in this shot:

Because you said it was taken off a 'Judge Beans' mug... the artistic licence may still apply to the company.
Although I doubt they'd find out... but it's generally not a good idea to use other peoples art. images/icons/smile.gif

I wasn't the first person to notice the Barrel temp guage... The first person I know of that caught it was b_max_beer. I just explained that it's only visible later in the vid when that scene is shown again, and the view zooms in images/icons/smile.gif
Anyway, I agree that the stratosfear building is probably what's visible in the shot with the cannon... It looks like it's lit differently at one point, with a (red? damn color blindness!) ...light at the top, but a second later the light seems to change on it, and it looks to me exactly the same as the stratosfear in the screenshot.

There is a color-changing lighting effect on the stratosfear tower visible in the distance during the cannon fight:

Add that to the list images/icons/grin.gif
Combined them into one image... Geocities is just being themselves as usual, reload if all you get is a red X images/icons/smile.gif

What is that thing to the right of the stratosphere? Am I the only one who thinks it looks slightly like a face, or am I just going crazy? images/icons/smile.gif

I looked at the older Duke Nukem Forever-trailer (the one from 98, when they still used the Q2-engine), and found something intresting (besides that all enemies that you shoot at was bugs images/icons/shocked.gif )
aww, can´t use image, must use URL (http://hem.passagen.se/foppzter/duke4ever/)
Some enemies are using stealth images/icons/shocked.gif , and then I start to think, what if they still use it in the game, would be fun to kill "invisible" enemies, and maybe even use it on oneself images/icons/wink.gif

Coke is trademarked, not Cola. If it were, how would Pepsi Cola and all these other crappy Colas work?

Btw: that stealthy thing looks a bit weird on screens.. Should check that in the video to make something of it...

Btw, been going over the thread and props to Sharp_I for the catchOTY.
Oh re: and the boat thing with the 'barrel temp'- I still can't see that. How could anyone zoom in on it?<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Remember the part with the boat is shown more than once in the vid... and the view zooms in at one point, which makes 'barrel temp' readable if you pause at the right time.

This is the best I could get.
I believe I am officially a geek now... aren't I?</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">the gun looks like the devestaor with bullets instead of mini rockets but it could just be 1 weird looking machine gun or it could be that 3 barrel gun in dn3d down to 2 barrels .. i dunno

Hey, what's are those papers lying next to the coffee mug in the damguide shot? Can anybody make them out? And do you suppose the guide occasionally takes his walkie-talkie and has conversations with co-workers?
