Let's see if we can break the record

Wow, what happened above, 3 days ago, to generate that many people in the forums? What'd I miss?

What do we need to do to break the record or get 1000 people online?

Now, do you really need to ask this?

The Dark Knight trailer release- just a wild guess.

Ready for whatever you may have in mind boss.

George, it's easy. You open the floodgates, we open the floodgates

People probably all of a sudden took notice of the Octa-Avenger again, and decided to group here one day to see it again that particular day

...

Not really, i'm dreaming

What can break the record..? Another thumbna... i mean, a full sized screenshot and a trailer of DNF sure would do it...

Sharpie · 12-18-2007, 02:36 AM

Release something very relevant and interesting on DNF. It will hopefully bring many gamers who arent regulars here at these forums and bring back more regulars and hopefully if the info or media is great we will shatter that record by the thousands

I literally LOLed when i read that and i think it is pretty obvious what needs to be done to bring more attention to DNF and 3D Realms in general.

I feel a trailer coming on...

LOL, let the fun begin

HazMat · 12-18-2007, 02:56 AM

you can announce some media, maybe a pic or two or if ready a video. Announce a certain time this will be released here at this forum. This will no doubt break any records.

I am pumped now man, lol

Nihilanth · 12-18-2007, 02:58 AM

This topic makes me curious.

Daedolon · 12-18-2007, 02:59 AM

I think he's just teasing us

Thriller · 12-18-2007, 03:11 AM

Choose a date and give us a screenshot if we brake 1500 users online that date. We might just crush it.

Steve · 12-18-2007, 03:16 AM

But this topic has got me thinking that we will see some stuff.

Thewho · 12-18-2007, 03:18 AM

Time to start the hype?

HazMat · 12-18-2007, 03:24 AM

Good time to "ROCK THE WORLD"

I wonder how many people can be online here at one time.

Easy - put out a fake message claiming new screenshots for DNF are online... lol - you'd get people racing over desperately climbing over furniture to log in - only to see there hopes are dashed and crushed.

But it would probably generate more than 1000 users online...

Kalki · 12-18-2007, 03:30 AM

Then spread the word Spoiler:

Rider · 12-18-2007, 03:34 AM

Y'know... I'm not quite ready to go into hype mode yet.

I mean, this isn't some one-time occurrence, George posting on the forums like that. Though I agree with everyone else in this thread. You give us a cookie, we give you a birthday cake. It's easy

Bushido · 12-18-2007, 03:38 AM

...maybe it's fate that I've returned to the forum at this time...who knows. But I'll say what everyone is thinking and hinting at: Release Duke Nukem Forever info. And not just a small screen. I'm talking about some confirmed release date or definitive screen shot that shows the game in action. Even when I'm away from this forum I tend to find out about DNF news. It's like a damn earthquake...and I read about the aftershocks on every site I visit. We've all waited for so long (some of us patiently...some of us not so much

) to see the return of one of gaming's greatest first-person-shooter heros ever:

Duke Nukem..........Forever.

Steve · 12-18-2007, 03:43 AM

You're killing me here, George

I think it's not a screenshot, my guess is that it will be a trailer or something

brabee · 12-18-2007, 04:00 AM

I can not resist...

George, what are you waiting for? Christmas?

...well in all seriousness it could be anything he wants. Take it from someone that isn't begging for new screens or a trailer, fans just want SOMETHING to ignite that conversation fire that still burns within

Steve · 12-18-2007, 04:06 AM

Trailer?

ROFL... George, you are an evil, evil man.

To misquote a movie and a baseballer, "Build it and they will come."

IHerman · 12-18-2007, 05:10 AM

3DR announcing DNF will hit the shelves next week would be a bad idea I think. It'll certainly be interesting, but a bad marketing move. (and that I just pulled out of my ass, because I have zero marketing knowledge)

If you want 1000 people online just release a screenshot in the forums.

ZARost · 12-18-2007, 05:32 AM

Pre-order's of DNF

Kristian Joensen · 12-18-2007, 05:40 AM

Well George the least you to break the record I think, would be to release a full/high res screenshot of DNF, or 8. The one or more of 3 already released as thumbnails would be good candidates if you aren't quite ready to show "more" yet.

HazMat · 12-18-2007, 06:11 AM

So should we hang onto something? Start strapping ourselves down and shit. I am chaining myself to the giant Duke statue.

Micki! · 12-18-2007, 06:13 AM

So, i thought this was news worthy...

It's up on Duke4.net...
http://www.duke4.net/news.php?item.156

Now, don't let us down... Let me update that news item with some REAL news

Steve · 12-18-2007, 06:17 AM

Oh... it's going to be something! I hope I can stay awake long enough

HazMat · 12-18-2007, 06:18 AM

He did post in the DNF forum. Hey Joe are you going to move Georges thread into general mesgs? lol

Crayola · 12-18-2007, 06:27 AM

That thread on Somethingawful probably had a lot to do with it.

brandonlee33 · 12-18-2007, 06:33 AM

Hmm I feel and Alternative Reality Game coming on, I Love Pigs maybe?
