NEW - 9-2-2010:
Bluesnews -> IS DNF finally done? George B of 3DR tweets a picture of "pigs fly".
Remember, he said a long time ago (2006) that DNF would be done "when pigs fly."

OLD:
Hmmm.....Jeremy Soule might just be working on DNF....or, well, some other project that will be available "when it's done!!!"

Jeremy Soule on DNF Soundtrack?

March 18, 2007 - Duke4.net seems to believe that acclaimed composer Jeremy Soule is going to be working on the soundtrack for 3D Realms' Duke Nukem Forever. Here's why:

Insider: Are you working on any projects right now? What can we expect to hear from you in the near future?

Jeremy Soule: Well, I'll leave one hint… "When it's done!!!"

-- Robert 'Apache' Howarth

TRAILER! For real this time!

Like Britney Spears, people just shouldn't talk about DNF anymore. I mean... it's pointless.

I'm sure just like the game engines, 3D Realms has probably already changed composers for DNF about 3-4 times by now....hehe....

You know you're all going to buy it when it comes out in 2015 anyway, don't lie.

Pugnate · « **Reply #7 on:** Monday, March 19, 2007, 12:34:24 AM »

For sure, but I am sick of hearing about it. PCG recently talked about how they found it hilarious that the developers were sick of people asking them heh.

You know, he's right I am going to buy this, and I'm going to be super critical about it too. This long to develop, with that much polish I best be able to see my face reflecting in it!

Well you get my point with this much time in development I'm expecting a highly polished game with a a healthy (read: above average) amount of content. I'm not holding out much hope for how it looks though it could still surprise me there.

MysterD · « **Reply #10 on:** Sunday, November 25, 2007, 07:38:51 PM »

I don't care what anyone says, regardless of if its Take Two or 3D Realms -- DNF probably will not make 2008.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #11 on:** Sunday, November 25, 2007, 07:41:46 PM »

I was thinking about it the other day... I really loved the Duke games. It's been long enough now that I could actually want a new one (or to get a port of DN3D happening on my system). I really wouldn't mind if this one came out and turned out to be pretty awesome.

scottws · « **Reply #12 on:** Sunday, November 25, 2007, 07:47:14 PM »

If DNF turns out really good then I'll have no trouble picking it up. But it really is quite a joke at this point.

I have Duke 3D and its Plutonium expansion. Yes, it rocked!

I don't follow Duke much -- but DN3D did have its Source Code released. Anything running natively yet on XP or Vista???

Hmmm....It is DOS-Based....I wonder if it would work in DOS-Box?!?!?

And yes, that 2001 trailer for DNF on that page did look pretty sweet, too. It looked like it would just be like the Duke over-the-top style fun we know and love.

But, damn -- 3D Realms, WTF is up w/ taking so long and so many damn engine changes??? Get it done and since it took soooooooooo long, it better be awesome!

Someone tell Duke to go out and finally get some bubble gum!

I bet if and when the game comes out, there has to be a Special Edition -- all games have it.

And DNF: Special Ed should have a Making Of The Game that is so long and so extensive (just like this game's history) big, it'll be on TWO or THREE DVD's!!!

Don't You Worry 'Bout Duke Nukem Forever
[Uros "2Lions" Jojic] 02:05 am EST @ December 17th, 2007
VE3D is reporting on an update by a developer (Scott Maclean) who is supposedly working on Duke Nukem Forever levels (I say "supposedly" because I just, ugh...). According to Scott, the work on Duke Nukem Forever is "going well."

Going well, eh? In Spok years I presume?

Scott Maclean : Six months since I updated. Not much has changed - everything is still going well. Things at work continue to make me jazzed to get up in the morning. Our team is just top-notch. I've been enjoying working on the levels I've been assigned, and everybody is responding well to the work I'm doing. In addition, the other designers continue to pump out work that just blows my mind. I'm really looking forward to the day when we can start showing off what we've been doing.

TF2 took 7 years to show up, and it was totally worth the wait.

DNF Teaser Video coming tomorrow

Last Saturday we had our annual company Christmas party. It was a lot of fun as usual but it featured one special surprise. It turns out that several people had been secretly working late nights and into the wee hours of the morning preparing a special video for those at the party. They created a short teaser for Duke Nukem Forever.

After seeing the teaser we thought it was something we should share with all of you and while it's just a teaser, rest assured more is coming.

Tomorrow, Wednesday the 19th, around noon CST, we will release the first teaser trailer from Duke Nukem Forever. To tide you over until then, there has been a screen shot taken from the teaser and posted in our forums. Check it out here.

Thank you for being fans of the game and for your continued patience.

We'd like to thank the people on the team that worked so hard to create this teaser and the friends of 3DR that helped create it (Jeremy Soule and Julian Soule, Frank Bry, Jason Evigan and of course, Jon St. John).

Teaser shot

haha, me too.

George B had some things to say about the current hype train on Shacknews:

Quote

Guys just to manage expectations...

This is a teaser. It's not a full blown trailer like the 2001 trailer (but something like that is coming). I tried to be clear about that in the message board post, so just bear in mind that it's a teaser

Enjoy.

It'll be an hd video, probably about a minute long and 100 megs or so.

Quote from: joystiq

After over a decade of waiting, it's about time somebody released a teaser video of the game in its current form. Of course, the very word "teaser" gives us the impression that it'll be less than 30 seconds long and have little to no bearing on the actual gameplay. If you've been waiting over 10 years to see Duke puff a high-resolution cigar, then good for you! If not, feel free to join us in the Land of Expected Disappointments tomorrow (with well roasted crow on standby).

No?.... ok.

I don't have the energy to be as cynical as I am about so many things. No matter how mismanaged the franchise has been, I'll totally watch it.

MysterD · « **Reply #27 on:** Tuesday, December 18, 2007, 07:33:27 PM »

The whole look, the whole swagger, the whole tough-guy-thing....
Kind of reminds of someone....

Maybe...Ron Perlman?

Hmmm...maybe Rob Perlman w/ shades and on steroids...?

Meh. That was supposed to create hype? It was better than the fucking thumbnail that they gave us a year or so ago, but lets not kid ourselves - anything less than a great game at this point and DNF will be a disaster.

Also, Youtube link.

idolminds · « **Reply #39 on:** Thursday, December 20, 2007, 01:26:33 AM »

The thing is the trailer was put together by a couple guys working off hours so they could show it at their christmas party. Thats cool and all, but it probably wasnt the best idea to break your media blackout with it. Wait for the full trailer thing.
