I don't mind the aliasing i aint a graphics whore

I'll take AF and AA over higher res textures any day.

Syph · 12-18-2008, 11:41 PM

I agree. I prefer smooth over realistic

In this particular case, as long as I get to kill those things I don't really care

Dobbs · 12-18-2008, 11:43 PM

Am I the only one who thinks that looks an awful lot like Unreal Engine 3?

First thing I said when I saw it was "GEARS OF WAR!" Yeah it definately has the UE3 feel which is nice considering they aren't on UE3. Then it's also good to know these guys are based on enemies from 1996 so they take precedence over anyone saying "omg they ripped gears of awesomelolololol off."

ReadOnly · 12-19-2008, 12:13 AM

So, staying tuned for a year was not in vain!

vivftp · 12-19-2008, 12:14 AM

I really love the self-illuminating enemys... will add so much to immersion in the game IMO... the cycloid emperors glowing "claw" casts such a nice, purdy glow over that side of the screenshot... especially love how it affects the lighting on the pigcop... one side illuminated by the background glow, the other side by the "claw"... makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside

razgriz · 12-19-2008, 12:22 AM

Holy crap! This is awesome.

Thank you!

avatar_58 · 12-19-2008, 12:22 AM

Awesome. Now release it already!

In the meantime, we head out to Christmas break with this small treat for you. Due to (how shall we say it), "popular demand", here is a new Duke Nukem Forever wallpaper image.

Ah, c'mon, that wasn't necessary.

No, really, you shouldn't have.

Oh alright. Thank you.

Firstperson · 12-19-2008, 12:34 AM

I can honestly say that I would LOVE to see those beasties in motion in a trailer. Merry Christmas indeed.

Thanks 3DR

Antosa · 12-19-2008, 02:24 AM

Thank you for the fantastic gift, many wishes for a Happy Christmas 3DRealms from the Italy.

Duke's New Chainsaw · 12-19-2008, 03:03 AM

I hope the Overlord and Assault Commander make a return.

ReadOnly · 12-19-2008, 03:09 AM

Yeah, Commander is the most powerful not-boss enemy.

Kalki · 12-19-2008, 03:11 AM

They look badass!

I'm aware those effects don't count but it looks like Duke's about to freeze-ray the lot of them!

For those yet to give out gifts this year, here's your wrapping paper.

Thanks Allen, George, Joe and a Merry X'Mas to all at 3D Realms!

Agreed, except for the "nice" part; dull and generic is more like it.

The previous shots were bloomy, but had at least a bit of colour to them (strip club mostly), this is a throwback to the thumbnail and teaser look.

ZaphodB · 12-19-2008, 03:18 AM

Thank you 3D Realms!!!!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!!!

Corpy · 12-19-2008, 03:23 AM

YEAH!!! YEAH!!! YEAH!!! That's wallpaper rock's and Those Nice Girls too

Oh, BTW:

Rider · 12-19-2008, 03:49 AM

Wow... that's.... that's just... wow.... awesome....

Thanks a whole lot for this 3DR!!

I did notice there's a lot less jaggies in this picture, was that also part of the tweaking??

DK2000 · 12-19-2008, 03:49 AM

Looks like 'Gears of Nukem' ^^

rockmanekuzu8 · 12-19-2008, 04:01 AM

WOW!! Like I said before only Duke can fight stuff of that magnitude!! Well I sure hope there's more, still a great gift thanks 3DR!! Keep Rocking and having a Great Holiday!!

Gears is a great series.

Nihilanth · 12-19-2008, 04:20 AM

You guys are crazy, this is so whatever.

Thanks for teasing a year ago for a wallpaper.

On a bright side, it looks really good. I'm glad you can shoot armour off and that some variations of monster won't have it because I really prefer Assault Trooper without this helmet or mask. The Enforcer is true to the original, it looks as meh as before.

ZuljinRaynor · 12-19-2008, 04:48 AM

I hope the protector drones don't come back.

Beelze · 12-19-2008, 04:51 AM

Looks nice, though I hope the game doesn't go for much more darkness than this.

Thanks, 3DR. Keep up the good work.

Brazil-Duke · 12-19-2008, 05:01 AM

Fantastic 3d models !!! I really like the color and light.

ReadOnly · 12-19-2008, 05:07 AM

Just noticed. Enforcer and Pigcop have red eyes.

I think we'll get other annoying enemies. Like those things in the Jace Hall footage.

ReadOnly · 12-19-2008, 05:15 AM

Actually, drones were mostly scary because of those humming. Same thing with slimes.

Echo Black · 12-19-2008, 05:17 AM

I don't think this wallpaper counts as a look at the game, ReadOnly. Only argument one could make for it is that the enemies depicted are cut from a real screenshot, and therefore it counts as a media release. But that's a very weak one. This is almost promo art.

ReadOnly · 12-19-2008, 05:22 AM

Damn, you are fast.
