New screenshots of DNF in Duke3D XLBA

[Marty]

although it looked way more appealing

[peoplessi]

I'd rather not have them there! Or I should get rid of them quickly if they indeed have managed to get past the bouncer.

[peoplessi]

The boobie is ok, no nipple can be seen. But I like how the strippers are high in polycount.

[Steve]

Halo 3 looks like shit and it sold a lot.

[Antikorper]

I wonder if ... and since we know DNF will have dismemberment ... how will it affect an octobrain if you shoot off its tentacles. Will it lose balance? Will it go spinning around and hitting stuff in random? Will it turn into an oversized basketball - bouncing around... or maybe just a football waiting to get kicked? Maybe it might just piss it off, but my personal favourite is the spinning meatball.

[peoplessi]

I like the visuals, it's really hard to judge anything solely on screenshots. In motion every single game looks better, that's a fact

[X-Vector]

I think Halo 3 is a visually very appealing game, doesn't look "like shit" at all to me.

[Duke's New Chainsaw]

There's nothing wrong with the environment. You talk about that then bring up Halo 3? The strip club looks like a strip club and the Hoover Dam looks like the Hoover Dam. Only problem I see with the graphics in those shots is the jaggies.

DNF graphics look more high res than Halo 3.

I don't think Halo 3 looks like shit either. Definitely a step up from the first two.

ROFL 3DR would be a firestorm then.

I'll rephrase that. It's not the best looking game out there but it sold a lot, that was my point. I shouldn't have used the word "shit"

Check my gamertag, I'm a fan of Halo 3 But more of a Duke fan

I am, extremely surprised to hear that, actually...

That's when you start with the "When I was your age, our DMs didn't have fancy frag counters...We had to quit the game after every 10 frags or whatever when we wanted to end the round and change the map...Back in my day we had to let our modem dial up for 2 minutes before we had a connection and we had lag to contend with not only our opponents...etc, etc, blah blah."

Damn kids, Damn Halo 3.

This made me smile.

Oh how I wish I could join you guys. . .to get my ass kicked (at least for the first few rounds until I get the controls understood )

Anyway, these shots look great imho. One guy was telling me that MGS4 looked better, even pulled out screens to compare and I was like, they look the same. . .Seriously, I can count triangles on these things, but I am special like that.

[djmondy]

Anyone else seeing what im seeing in the octabrain screen. its the same level as one of the 2001 screens with the cop guy standing close to the camera with the dam in the backround.

Just looked at the screens side by side and its more or less identical.

Did they ever say what the barcodes on the skin meant??

Anyway maybe not so much has been changed afterall.

Looks awsome by the way!!

Hope they kept the bit with the tentacles punching through somones body...that looked amazing!

[Joe Siegler]

Hey guys, this is supposed to be a thread about DNF shots, not game match recaps from XBLA games. We have an entire forum for THAT. Thank you.

[Duke's New Chainsaw]

It's the Hoover Dam!

What a surprise, it really is
I can't wait to shrink the brains of those Octabrains and splatter tiny pieces of membrain all over my boots in DNF...

[zwieback]

hhhhooooovvveeerrrrr daaaammmm!!


weeeeee

[neo86]

hey... could those 2 pics been in coming dnf trailer??

sorry my bad english

i'm from finland and big DNF fun..

[Antikorper]

no jopas jotakin


*sorry for the klingon speech - finnish*


and maybe they could be but i am quite sure your question will not be answered before the trailer is released

[RedSplat]

No anti-aliasing ruins the shots a bit. (I'm a graphics whore)
But at least they're honest and showed it in its purest form.
I would've have cheated and scaled the shots down from 1920x1200 or something, to make it look smoother.

[Jinroh]

I think the grafix look great. Release as is! XD

[Rider]

Looks like Duke4.net is really getting hammered! Congrats on the exclusive guys

[Lethe]

I won't mind graphics if the game excells in other departments (gameplay, interactivity)

[neo86]

moro vaan antikorper

There's nothing wrong with the graphics.

You have these people who pop up for EVERY game saying the graphics suck.

[clayasaurus]

I just hope this is the last graphics update.

People will complain regardless even if there really isn't a problem or they haven't tried it out first hand.

Nice screenies btw 3d realms! Can't wait to get my hands on the game once released.

[ZaphodB]

I think when the game comes to fruition, ppl will have to eat their words because of how awesome it will be. The screenshots looking that goood at that res, makes my mind stagger to think how they will look in motion at 1680x1050.
