This is apparently footage from unknown Frederic Schreiber private stream.
The 2001 unreal engine build was almost complete and Randy saying it's just a few scraps of gameplay is very inaccurate. Frederic said year ago it's at least 12 hours.
Even if it's not playable or scripted or whatever... I don't Care. I am 30yo now, the year is 2020 and I am still watching that 2001 DNF trailer.
Someone at gearbox or Schreiber must show some mercy... Leak it, release it at whatever state. Just do something!

DNF 90% Complete Goalposts Shift to 2002 Build

I'm guessing the hold up is Shitfart brainstorming ideas for this "Definitive Duke Nukem Collection" he mentioned Either that, or he is...

I played through and beat Duke Nukem Forever, and the expansion.

I share your wishes that this would be leaked however

The build looks tremendously good for 2001. I can only imagine the lost potential of the Unreal version, this could have turned out awesome, plus you'd have had the modding community keeping the game up to date.

The rain looks really good. I’m surprised this is from 2001.

The environments are cool, like next gen Duke Nukem 3D, similar design but higher capabilities. But the game didn't sound all that great with the serious/horror focus or whatever crap they were doing. Probably still better than the game that actually got released but that's not an achievement.

 

[EightBit Man]

Yeah, that certainly would've wowed me. The final product never could've lived up to expectations, because (and this is my personal opinion) games were still truly groundbreaking, doing things never seen before.

They were probably designing it to compete with newer games than possible at the time.... we all know how that worked out.

Na, not really. The rain you seen in those captures are simply an overlaid "GIF" and not dynamic at all. Though there is nothing wrong with that, real time graphics is all about tricks.

 

[EverydayBeast]

Looks incredible for a 2001 game.

 

[GrayFoxPL]

Don't do this to me.

Duke Nukem in this climate today? I couldn't even begin to imagine a Duke game in Generation Snowflake. But on the topic at hand, looks like it was gonna be righteous.

 

[Madonis]

It's probably for the best that Duke Nukem is dead as a property right now, after Forever disappointed most gamers, but it's good to see more of what could have been a solid sequel.

A Duke Nukem in 2020 with Randy Pitchford as project lead no less. Try to wrap your head around that...

 

[Coflash]

My god, I would still play the hell out of that.

The visuals are great too - when you compare it to other games of the time it really stands out.

 

[Digital Gex]

(and my heart aches)

Oh for Apogee's sake, suck it up.

 

[Max_Po]

Gameplay looks trash ... ... rofl @ heart aces.....a few flat textures from 98 01 era ...

 

[Helios]

Fuck Randy for keeping the game hostage.

 

[deriks]

If it was launched in 2001, I would take it
