Whoa… Duke Nukem Forever– Actually going to be Released!

fishbulb — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 01:08:45 +0000

This is amazing. Can’t believe this is actually going to come out– Duke Nukem Forever is going to be out next year! I guess all it took was having it taken away from 3D Realms and given to a studio that can actually get work done (Gearbox). Can’t wait to see this. I’m sure it won’t live up to 3D Realms’ stratospheric hype, but hopefully it’ll be an entertaining game.

Last year, when 3D Realms got shut down, somebody on their dev team posted a video to Youtube of some of the gameplay from DNF:

It looks like it’s really well done, but obviously unfinished. Hopefully Gearbox can preserve that… As well as the humor from the earlier games.

Hell Hath Frozen Over– Team Matchmaking Has Been Released

Been waiting for this one for a long time… Valve finally came out with team matchmaking (read the update info here).

Get together with four friends, and get matched with another team randomly. This should prove to be fun…

Heaven Can Wait

If you haven’t heard about this campaign yet, do yourself a favor and download it NOW. This is a very well thought out series of maps that doesn’t follow the usual push a button, wait for the horde sequence of events. It’s long, it’s challenging, and it’s way awesome! Read the review HERE. Download link is at the bottom of the review page.

New Map: Night Terror

A new map is being uploaded to the server called Night Terror.

You can down load it here.

Also, we’re going to start creating forum polls for each of the maps, so people can vote on the maps. If there’s a consensus for/against a map, that will determine if it is kept on the server.

The forum topic for this map can be found here.

Hunter Training

Always wonder how Sco seems to land that 25 point pounce on you out of nowhere? It’s because he trains with THIS, the Hunter Training maps. This is a two map pack that is frustrating as hell, but if you keep dinking around with it, you’ll improve. My favorite is the “final test” where a group of survivors run around a little mock’d up city for you to munch on. Map is on the server for teaching purposes, but best to played as single player. Just follow the instructions and animated ingame tutorials.

Fright Train Campaign Added to Server

Another new campaign requested by Sierra. Haven’t played this one yet, so I don’t know how good it is…

Looks like the first map is about done, the second half done, and the third only started. Hopefully it’s playable!

Fun new campaign called Back to School has been uploaded to the server. Only 3 maps so far, and no school in sight, yet. Apparently that’s the finale.

Coal’d Blood Campaign Added

sco — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 00:12:46 +0000

This is a very cool campaign with 3 maps that is about 70% finished. The 2nd and 3rd maps have developer textures in a number of areas, but still makes for a good time. Hopefully, the final map will be fixed up to where my frames per sec don’t drop to 2. This is already up and running on the server and will be kept updated. You can download it at http://www.l4dmaps.com or just click HERE.
