Anyone know where I can get the no porn patch for this? I can't find it.
Seems I can't post the link
But if you go to the Moddb site, under the Duke Nukem 2001 page there's a mod called Screenshots that seems to replace the porn image in the menus
First time in history someone has ever asked for a mod to *remove* porn
Internet Archive, my fren
Vinny, in the first chapter Studio was only the first level of the chapter, you should've just click on that arrow and select the next level in that chapter, next ones are much more 'complete'.
I know a place, if you want a number. Lemme see if I got the number here...
The sheer irony of the project lead for this game desperately trying to prevent it from being "outdated" all the while ensuring it would be outdated when it finally came out. For a 2001 game, this is fairly advanced even in a clearly unfinished state. Every game developer knows you eventually have to bite the bullet and work to finish a title or else you'll succumb to feature creep. DNF and Diakatana are testaments to that.
The late 90s to early 00s was a very competitive and bumpy transitional period of non-stop breakthroughs in the hardware AND software departments. No doubt very stressful for game devs trying to keep up. You would start developing a video game one day, by the next quarter most, if not all, the tech you were using was already outdated. On top of that, you had consoles like the PS2 and the Xbox entering the market in full force.
@@stalwartarjuna And in that time we had multiple new Duke games not made by 3D Realms that were still pretty decent. N Space made 2 for PS1 and Eurocom made one for N64. This game was just a bit to ambitions and unfocused. They should of fleshed out level layouts first instead of focusing on so many little things. Also get a lot of the systems working. This build is very good though. They could of just of heavily overhauled the engine. Implemented new features and graphical effects instead of scraping it.
@@stalwartarjuna Of course. Technology moved incredibly fast then and Duke Nukem Forever being a heavily anticipated game would obviously result in pressure to deliver. However, technology was never what was important. Duke Nukem 3D was not successful because it had the most advanced technology. Half-Life was considered a watershed moment despite still using a modified Quake engine. Both games were beloved for their impeccable design and cinematic qualities. Restarting development every two years to adopt whatever shiny new engine came out is always a fools gamble.
diakatana is not a good game though
@@リンゴ酢-b8g They're not defending Daikatana as a good game - they're saying it's similar to DNF in terms of having too many features that weren't fleshed out properly, and switching game engines mid-development which hurt the final game drastically.
The Duke Nukem memes have corrupted my brain so much that I expected Duke to say "I KNOW WHAT SEX IS" when the theme started playing.
You and me both dude.
Blessed be Gianni Matragano
I'VE GOT A PEER REVIEWED STUDY
It's Time To Drive Under The Influence *loses shit*
No, Megadeth, Let me Grieve!
This leaked build feels like closure for Duke Nukem fans. Even more so than the letdown of the final game in 2011.
Even Duke Nukem Forever 2011 was still unfinished. They just spliced what they had together and crapped it out. I'm glad I got to play it. But could of done with some more time.
@@WllKiedSnake To be honest, I don't think there was anyway to save the 2006 or 2011 versions of DNF. The developers had forgotten the fundamental aspects of what make 3D such a good game. Duke had almost become an unflattering parody of himself at that point.
@@quietnumber2317 Definitely! I'd of just added it all to the Duke Nukem Forever 2011 release in the extras menu if possible and sell it as such. Like a finished game and then the unfinished Duke 2001 build and the 2004 build. You'd need to do a bit of work to get that all working though. I don't think they could of pulled it off. But what did come out was more than possible to finish and release. Not that it felt finished though. The finished game was the 2006 build I'm pretty sure? And yeah! The Duke from the finished release didn't feel like the Duke Nukem I knew. This 2001 Duke felt way more interesting and funny.
Or the in-progress remake of Duke3D by Interceptor Entertainment that got shitcanned by Gearbox
@@WllKiedSnake I suppose. The game being more polished could have made the disappointment pill easier to swallow. And yes, the final version of the game is mostly just the 2006 build glued into something that resembles a video game.
The cheat codes
Press F12 and type:
allammo = All weapons
ghost = noclip
god = godmode
You need to do a lot of noclip to advance in the game
I'm played this a lot and can be your guide If you want to play it again
with a username like that, i believe you :P
Tab also works to open the console
@Daclunator Yeah sadly im not much a fan of it either, but then again I can understand why it would have to be strict with the type of people in this community (no offense to others of course)
Thats so awesome dude!
If they had stuck with this build and polished it and released it in 02, this would have been a milestone for FPSes.
@@Gatorade69 hopefully that gets leaked too. Give it a couple years and I bet we'll have a finished product.
@@Gatorade69 This build is apparently from October 2001. The 90% complete build is from December 2002, so imagine a version of this with 14 extra months of work put into it. I don't know if x0r also has that version but I'm hoping against hope he gets it.
@@Otakumanu All we have to do now is hire Gianni Matragrano and finish the game using the 2002 build
@@LordVader1094 hi Nostradamus.
If you want to see Vinny play the version of this game with all the NSFW stuff kept in then make sure to subscribe to VinelyFans, Vinesauce's very own site for debaucherous content!
That's just the clip channel
Yeorghhh
It also has the unedited orc massage playthrough
I'd rather not be reminded of the reason why Vinny went on hiatus last year.
If UA-cam and Twitch weren't owned by non-human advertisers.
The dream of a utopia
I do feel for the devs, because the early 2000s must have been a nightmare for game development. Computer specs really went through a golden age of progress in that short time and keeping pace with it must have been an impossible task.
Also, "unfinished person" will now replace the word "child" for me.
It really is insane how much better computer processing power became just between 1996 and 2001. Most PC's went from having maaaybe 16mb of memory to needing at least half a gigabyte in order to run most modern games. Not to mention video cards...
“Unfinished person” describes a fetus or embryo more than it does an already born kid though.
One of the lead devs on Twitter (or the original manager) is REALLY annoyed people are playing this and is desperately trying to downplay this demo, he just goes "meh it's nothin, why are you excited? It's only a few levels, no real detail and there's no ending, don't get your hopes up" , I'm pretty sure he's the reason the project never got their shit together
As a developer myself, I also would not understand why anyone would want to play an unfinished old build of my game.
The person on twitter also might be condemning it due to legal reasons. I mean look at those weird celebrity photos in the game for example. I doubt they have the rights to use those.
@@DasAntiNaziBroetchen but most of those are for internal testing, it's not uncommon to have photos in game when you're making it or testing. Also how can you devs not understand we LOVE seeing old unused content? It's extremely fascinating and really cool to compare difference, don't you enjoy watching Behind The Scenes of movies or learning your favorite movie has an alternative cut , deleted scenes or a different ending? Same with games
@@DasAntiNaziBroetchen This is an entirely different game than what we got, though. It's different than your unfinished old build.
@@DasAntiNaziBroetchen That's because your games aren't an important part of the 90-2k's gamedev history.
BTW that twitter developer was George Broussard, the executive producer of DNF and co-founder of 3DRealms. And the main reason why DNF 2001 never got released in the first place.
@@Arcademan09 "but most of those are for internal testing" I am aware. But I don't know how that flies legally if some copyrighted thing was leaked from *your* company and is now being spread across the internet.
"don't you enjoy watching Behind The Scenes of movies"
Not particularly I think.
"Same with games"
The only old and unfinished game builds I care about are from retro games, because the whole development process was usually much more closed off than it is now. But even then I think people make a bigger deal out of it than it is (see restoration projects). Because of course the first versions of a game look entirely different. It's to be expected.
I don't know if you are aware, but the entire industry (except Nintendo) essentially shares information about a game's development process (especially the technical part) at GDC for example. The development process of a game is not shrouded in mystery anymore. It's just a job at this point, because you need to keep up with what's happening.
To clarify:
I understand if the game you got in the end is something entirely different.
But I often see people go apeshit about some old build of a game where it's like "In this build Spumgabio does a backwards flip when jumping instead of a forward flip! :O"
I mean let's be real if they actually finished and released this version the franchise might actually still be alive and kicking
This game feels like a Garry's mod multiplayer map where you're the only one on the server
Also called Garry's Mod Singleplayer
It looks more like Postal 2.
@V It's kinda hard to talk about jankiness when this build is horrendously unfinished.
the graphics remind me of max payne
If you came here from the gray Leno VR vid to look for the hidden leno,
he's at 15:30 on the tv in the top left
Holy shit lmao, thanks
You are doing the lords work sir thank you.
You just saved me a bunch of searching for something I would have NEVER found. Thank you!
Thanks
I genuinely wonder if he thought people would find this on their own before he said it was here
I keep expecting to hear "Hi there! Would you like to sign my petition?" while watching this visuals for this game.
Would you please sign my petition
Its becous of piss
@@Gatorade69 Well, hhhhhhackshually it was Unreal Engine 2, soooooooooooooo
@@Gatorade69 Righty-o. Yep, Postal 2 is an infamously unstable buggy mess even 2 decades and many patches and expansions later, and I kinda feel like I wouldn't have it any other way, to be honest. It's part of the charm.
I love these graphics, haters will hate but HL2 is approaching the uncanny valley for me while this still gives a lot of room for stylized characters etc.
The thick, ropey, 2D physics of the pee gives off uncomfortably-high tapeworm vibes
Well... Thanks for that association...
Its time to kick ass and piss tapeworms, and i'm all out of ass.
"I won't explain the entire history of Duke Nukem Forever, because I don't know it." Nice save, Vinny; we all know you know it but just want to make us non-professional gamers feel better about ourselves.
The What Happun? episode on Duke Nukem Forever has 1.5 Million views.
Insane that “tears of piss” is territory we’ve already covered
I know exactly which game too: it also lets you vomit lasers made of blood and the power ups do horrible things to the protagonist even if they are supposed to “help” him. It also has a slightly less creepy but still gross version of DNF 2011’s hive as the first extra major boss level, played more like a 2D version of Shub Niggurath from Quake 1.5.
@Mosquito It does doesn’t it? But it’s actually The Binding of Isaac.
@@lionocyborg6030 Which means that if there really is a piss tears augment/weapon in Cruelty Squad we've covered piss tears at least four times now including this XD
We deserve this leak. I deserve it after waiting 20 plus years, pre ordering and buying the special edition of the 2011 version. Broussard single handedly made this game brilliant and then just hid it from the world. Give this specific edition another year or two and It still could have been amazing. Now it's just a curiosity and a strange look into the past that could have been.
With the source code being leaked as well, there's a huge chance the fanbase is gonna gather around and make something out of this verison if not downright complete it
I barely know anything about duke nukem but damn am I hype to see this get deconstructed and rebuilt as some kind of FreeDink or OpenMorrowind treatment in the near future. society rests squarely on the shoulders of git junkies building the software equivalents of crunchy homemade rockets in their garages, and lord, is the free spread of knowledge through the Information Superhighway just what we needed.
To be fair, my understanding is that DNF had already been in development for some 4 years by the time of this version... and it's still this unfinished that far in. Looking at the state of this build, I guess it's kinda obvious this version of the game was just never meant to be, sad as that is.
There supposedly is a December 2002 version that is "90% complete", but yeah, if that ever leaks, that'd be VERY interesting to see. Both because this October 2001 build barely looks 50% complete and also because I'd love to see what in the world "10% incomplete" looks for the standards of this game.
@@FamilyTeamGaming Fair call. Well said. Yeah I want to see the more complete build too. It's probably still buggy as all hell haha. I am so very thankful that we got this build though. It proves how passionate the community has always been that we're thankful for table scraps after 20 years.
I can't believe someone finally set Duki Nuki free from Randy Pitchford's greasy basement.
*Bitchford
Sadly he still has the 2002 build....
@@Otakumanu I heard that version is also supposed too be leaked soon, but I'm not sure if it's true.
@@doclouis4236 Where did you hear that?
@@Otakumanu I saw it from some second hand source that said he was from 4chan and was going to leak the 2002 build and the source code in June.
A few notes:
In order to get through some parts of the prototype, you have to interact with some NPCs by pressing E, each time you press E it will advance a line of dialog, after talking to them they might open a door or do something else. Killing an NPC will break a scripted sequence and you will usually have to restart the entire map.
Most of the maps in the first half of the game are connected, albiet kinda loosely, I couldn't find a way to get from Studio to Penthouse A in The Lady Killer but there might be a way. The level design is a bit wonky, so expect to get lost alot.
In Penthouse A there is a puzzle in the room that the maid is trying to open, completing the puzzle puts out the fire, allowing you to progress.
Penthouse B and Rooftop are also connected, but in the strangest way. The end of Penthouse B has an elevator that appears by flipping a switch on a balcony, the elevator's controls are a bit weird and I don't quite remember them, but I think it's the arrow keys and maybe page up and down. After going up, and going onto the rooftop, you will find that the roof is loading and unloading in several chunks, but if you look around for a bit you should find a trapdoor, going in there loads you into Rooftop.
This 2001 build doesn't have many of its own commands, however it's engine is a modified Unreal Engine 1, and the vast majority of commands from there work here.
A few cool development facts about DNF 2001:
The prototype leaked is actually around the time of the E3 trailer. It even includes all of the maps shown in the trailer, some of which were made specifically for it. The trailer really overrepresented how playable the game really was.
This prototype is actually quite early as it goes for the "2001" era of development. Development actually lasted about a year longer, into Late 2002, before they had the idea of updating the lighting engine, it broke the lighting on existing maps, and from what it seems they just gave up and restarted development.
The Duke 3D model seen in this proto is a placeholder, and a little while after they updated the model, complete with sunglasses.
I'm unsure as to how complete Duke Nukem Forever got, but if I were to take a guess, This build is alittle less than half complete, with most of the groundwork laid out, and the Late 2002 build was about 80-90% complete
Development was restared about 5 times, the first 2 or 3 times using different engines. I think the Quake 1 or 2 engine was used at one point before they tried restarted development again.
Duke Nukem Forever was originally going to be another sidescroller, releasing after Duke Nukem 3D before it was cancelled.
I think people should hold off on trying to mod-develop the game further. We very well might see a 2002 build of the game leak which is supposedly almost complete. The 2001 build looks to be missing large swathes of enemies, dialogue, scripted sequences, and connecting segments between levels.
@@bud389 It haven't stopped poeople from modding or altering prototype versions of great finished games, so it's not like they can't get something out of this earlier build. If anything there might a lot of things that might had been removed during the 2002 build.
The graphics are really good for 2001.
Its so timeless style, works everytime.
Please definitely do a part 2, Vinny. There are a lot of helpful comments here and this is such a fascinating experience.
This version was 2 years after the original release of UNREAL TOURNAMENT and Deus Ex... that's WILD to me.
And this build shares a lot of SFX from Unreal. Weapon pickups and gore splatter specifically, maybe more.
If you follow that guy in the Studio level instead of killing him, he takes you through a door you can't open on your own and you can continue the level. There's dialog at the top of the screen when certain characters are around, advancing the story.. it's just really small and easy to miss.
The cheat codes you're looking for are: ghost (noclip) and allammo (gives everything). There's a couple more, like fov, god, invisible, summon, but those first two are what you want for exploration.
I think this game being so unabashedly 2000's made this a far more enjoyable experience than if it had just... come out on time. Sticks out like a nuclear thumb this way.
We don't have a time machine, but we have Duke Nukem. Now we just need him on a gym scooter eating a Fruit by the Foot off of a Zoopals plate for the full nostalgic experience.
Better yet, new Duke in this style. Hey, worked for Mega Man 9.
I think it's because we are comfortable with this graphics style with the games that look like this and release today. Retro inspired shooters and what not.
Retro throwback shooters are certainly a thing these days, and fairly popular: Fallen Aces, Dusk, Hedon, HROT, Amid Evil, Blood West, WRATH: Aeon of Ruin etc. A Duke game without cutting edge visuals but made with real heart? People would buy that in a heartbeat, myself included.
@@Interference22 Just let the Ion Fury devs make it.
And now I remember Zoopal plates, thanks
@@Interference22 if we get this 2001 build but the 2002 version thats 80% complete we can finish it and pack it up as Duke Nukem 2000
Vinny, there's so much more you're missing in this game. There's a lot more maps and scenes and even a somewhat fully playable campaign from start to finish, as well as a ton of unused maps. All the scenes from the e3 trailer are in their own e3 folder.
(lol)
Yeah I hope maybe there's a bigger leak and he comes back to this. This video could've been several hours long with the amount of content that got leaked
"I can think of a couple of notable things that happened in 2001..."
Yeah, that space odyssey was crazy.
Edit: I love that the replies are slowly becoming "List of Video Games Released In 2001", haha.
I know right
Yeah, Halo Combat Evolved came out and proved consoles were viable platforms for FPS games. Crazy fuckin' year.
Yeah, MGS2 came out that year.
I'll never forget the times of 2001
Funnily enough, this build actually makes a 9/11 joke, or at least a joke about Osama Bin Laden.
Note that this build was made a *month* after 9/11.
I've been excited for this. I hope the community can finish it now.
if the other builds leak we'll finish those too and make em into their own games since theyre each different enough to be standalone
@@nickm5419 I've heard there is a 2006 builld also. But I'm pretty sure what it was ended up being 2010 Duke Nukem Forever. There is an other build made in Unreal Engine 2.5 also. Since Embracer Group owns Gearbox now, expect more to leak as more people at Embracer Groups studios get a look at what Gearbox owns.
From what it looks like, there needs to be a whole HEAP of voice acting, coding, bug-testing, and placeholder asset swapping that needs to be done. When the one guy said "DNF 2001 is mostly 85 to 88% finished", I think he may have been exaggerating. The game looks like it's 65% finished, and I'm being optimistic.
@@bud389 There are two more builds of this version of Duke Nukem Forever at different stages of development that are more further along that haven't leaked yet.
3:15 For me, my top video game holy grail is still Twelve Tales. Even while I'm almost 22, I'm still a sucker for Rare's N64 collect-a-thon platformers, even the ones that people started to see problems with, like Banjo-Tooie and Donkey Kong 64. And still like, to finally end up playing the one unreleased game that probably would've diverged our reality the most, would just be the coolest thing, even above Dinosaur Planet.
Even still, every time we get something big like the Nintendo Gigaleak, Puggsy on SNES, this recent Duke Nukem Forever leak, Dinosaur Planet as aforementioned, and heck, even Carnivalé on N64, I still celebrate as, though my levels of desirability for them all vary between each other, they're all still interesting/important pieces of video game history in their own unique ways.
George Broussard saw the Doom 3 E3 trailer so this game get changed to a new shaders that allows dynamic lighting to fight Doom and it fucked all the existing lighting. Leading it all get scrapped.
After that George wanna add more physics to the game in 2004 and somehow in 2006 the game get another remake because staffs were quitting.
Then take2 sues 3D Realms and George let Gearbox Randy bought the rights, then the 2011 shit comes out.
Randy has no intention to release the 2001 build. Saying the trailer is all fake and very unplayable.
Yet this leaked build isn't even the 90% complete one in late 2002 and it already plays better than the abomination in 2011. Every E3 trailer parts are in it.
ahhh, within the first two minutes we learn why its titled "duke nukem leak"
I was in the thread when the guy posted screenshot and webms proving it was real, he was so adamant about releasing it in June but as soon as everyone started sharing it on Twitter we knew it was only a matter of time before Randy "Magic Squirting porn" Bobandy started releasing lawsuits against him, I was surprised how fast he dumped it but I'm more glad he did, we all know how easy it is these go down or get hoarded
Duke coming back "Demolition Man" style would be great!
My thoughts- you stole them 😹
Dunno if Vinny caught on this, but during the intro level dialogue is displayed in very small text, and the talk-show sequence from the 2011 game is present and the host makes a joke about *Osama Bin Laden* (keep in mind, this build is from _October 2001)_
I know the joke would probably have landed different by the time of release (20 years later right know it is kinda funny), but even then, "too soon"
In reality there are many things you didn't see because you gave up before trying to understand how to move forward with a little exploring, just wish chat was there to guide you out.
Here are the interesting codes, you can enter them by opening the console with F12 but also by just pressing TAB:
ghost - noclip (+fly, you can't interact with the environment)
fly - (you can interact with the environment)
allammo - all weapons/gadgets
god2 - good god mode
open - warps to map
rmode 6 - fullbright (REALLY useful as most of the lighting in this build is screwed and is way too dark)
rmode 5 - get back to normal lighting
rmode 4 - cool ass mode untextured mode you want to check out (apparently it's the BSP zones or something)
Shame really
map also works
I love how the half-finished state of this game just gives the whole thing a kinda surreal and dreamy vibe, like the Duke game you imagine after too much cheese
this kind of looks like it would have been somehwat good. A duke nukem immersive sim {like, the same kind of style of game as Deus ex and Prey} would have been a very fun and logical step forward from the doomlike 3d
Duke 3d was somewhat like this also. Big open levels that allowed for exploration and interaction but with an end goal to the level. This was just the next step to that.
1:18
IF PISS IS STORED IN THE ESOPHAGUS......
I'M ABOUT TO DO SOME THROAT SINGING. *_MM, YEAH!_*
That 1st map, the studio one actually has more of it, the guy you're supposed to follow opens a door that leads to a tv set if you stay away from him long enough
No clip is Vinnys friend. But some things need to be event activated in order to initiate.
Since Vinny was commenting on the game's gore where you can dismember body parts, he should play the Soldier of Fortune games since the gore and dismemberment is very detailed for a game that came out in 1998.
There's so much in this game that seems ahead of its time
This is definitely ahead of many, MANY games that came out 1-5 years later
One has to wonder if Duke Nukem Forever released in 2001 as scheduled, if Duke would have remained the cultural phenomenon he was in 1996
2002 is a more realistic release, and i have no doubt this game in a completed state would have been celebrated as great game; problem is that would require 3D Realms staff to stop feverishly scanning gaming mags to be perpetually 10 mins ahead of the cool curb.
I don't know if you're gonna revisit this offscreen or on, but the cheats are:
f12 for console then:
allammo - All Guns/Items (including the Shades OS features)
god - God Mode
ghost - Noclip
open (mapname) - open any of the maps in the "map" folders. There's a ton of alternate/test/unused and some funny stuff in there.
Alt works as a quicker way to access the console too.
a handful of recommended maps for the Open command, though i'm sure there's plenty of other interesting stuff:
discoinferno
HarrisonFord
mw_bowlballgame
pigcopvariations
ks_show_notepad
ks_show_lightcycle
characterskins
ab_airhockey
to name a few. also check out the e3 maps they used to make the trailer!
i do like that Vinny "broke" the hair detail on the lady character models and totally forgot that he did it himself with the in-game settings, with a before and after example right in front of him with the first lady he encountered.
The hair detail is broken regardless of what you do with it. It's an issue with transparency with this build. The leak comes with an August build, but that one lacks source code - But it has working quicksaves and quickloads, and the transparency works on it.
Fun fact, an image of Rei from Neon Genesis Evangelion is in the files of this
The good thing is the source code is included in these leaks. Everything is here for modders and others around the world to actually put some sort of game together out of all these assests. Maybe, just maybe in a few years there could be something of a fininshed version of this in a few years. Or heck, maybe even some more leaks...
The December 2002 "90% complete" version is still to be seen...
@@Otakumanu fingers crossed
They've got ragdolls and shadowmaps working in here, maybe someone could port UT to this version of the engine :D
"you could make a Duke game in current year" indeed, if Postal 4 can come out and have more or less the same juvenile piss, sex, and drugs humor as Postal 2 had, then Duke can get away with his 80s machismo and casual sexism and plagiarism of action movies
also for extra the Postal Dude in Postal 4 is voiced by John Saint John(until the final update were they got the two other guys who have voiced the Dude to come back and do all the lines and you can now just pick the one you like), so there's that....
I agree on everything but the casual sexism, not why people like duke or what makes him great. Duke is great for being a chessy 80s action hero and his one liners
Except that Postal 4 has none of 2's topical humor, great level design, coherent art style or even technical stability, lmao.
It's also pretty telling that you boil Douk down to just "muh sexism and jokes", much like you did Postal 2 to "piss humor": I guess when you only bring up the surface level features of older things (in Douk's case noboby seems to remember the stellar level design, interactivity, the banging ost and such) we end up getting trash like Postal 4: sure it's got cat silencers and rEfErEnCeS11! but it's just plain unfun.
I mean nowadays that's applicable to way too much media than anyone's willing to admit, but this line of thinking is partially why not getting a new Douk game is a blessing: it would just be another shallow, surface level nostalgia pandering skinwalker with little of what made the original great. Cuz, again, "sexism and movie quotes" is what people miss about Duke, apparently.
@@boodle399 the only thing I *really* don't like with old Duke3D is the depiction of women, but I didn't understand that as a kid. Other than many enemies being loud and obnoxious, much prefer Doom's enemies, I do think Duke could me modernized, even the 64 version implementing the original idea to actually save them was an improvement I think, more good than bad outside stupid profanity changes and the weapons being worse.
@@screamybingus707 I meant duke more as a character but you are right
@@screamybingus707 I did not even realize Duke3D had a great soundtrack until I discovered the midis on a Roland SC-55/88, but it really does have some great stuff. I played Postal 2 way too much as a teen, but it had a very active community of mappers and modders I remember, one nick was "Kamek"? The least favorite parts of it is what I'd rather forget and been hesitant to play again ever since. Animal abuse jokes is just ... No. A lot of other stuff was more South Park level.
this might look simple but it's so atmospheric an it has a soul. A lot of stuff from the 2001 version is here. All the scenes are here and some could took place in the levels.
the 2011 version is sadly terrible and nothing like this.
There is alot more in the studio. There are multiple floors and the whole level to go down to street level takes almost an hour to complete. Just have to "ghost" command few walls
so ghost is noclip
and allammo is all weapons
The levels are very open like in Duke Nukem 3d. While still trying to be inspired by games you'd see around 2001, Like Half Life or Deus Ex. Duke Nukem Forever 2011 is quite linear in comparison. There is another build from 2004 and 2006. They are made in Unreal 2 and 2.5. They look closer to Duke Nukem Forever 2011 but the earlier build from 2004 has stuff you've not seen yet. 2006 build was closer to Duke Nukem 2011.
@@WllKiedSnake this was worked until mid 2002.
Then they switched to doom 3 engine I think.
And after that again too unreal but 2.5 or something yeah
@@HiCZoK OK yeah! That makes sense why Duke 2004 build looks very much like Doom 3 featuring Duke Nukem. HAHA!
2011 version is a better version than what was planned to be released in 2001. If anything, it's basically the same? How is this game any different?
@@colescott8756 some levels have the same idea but a lot of stuff was cut out or simplified for final release
The Irony here is that I much prefer these graphics than UE3. It feels closer to Half Life or Deus EX 1.
If you meant DNF'11, it is also UE1. But I get what you say, they heavily modified it and basically killed the renderer and shaders similar to how UE3 did it.
@@cycleoffire2220 Final game's engine felt more like a mixture of Unreal 1 and Unreal 2 tools, having looked into its modding myself.
These types of vids are my fav, Vinny’s the best at exploring atmospheric & odd game worlds.
If you're here now, you're probably looking for something. It is here. Use the comma and period keys to scrub frame by frame.
(Don't open this comment until you find it yourself! Or if you just want to skip to it. Whatever.)
Grey Leno is in the static on the motel TV from 15:30 to 15:32. He's more visible when Vinny explodes the second lamp and looks back at the TV. I don't know if he's in the second DNF video, but I never got around to watching it anyway, so I'll keep an eye out.
i was specifically waiting for Vinny to play this first and damn he freakin delivered
I think that people like Gianni have proven that with the right level of irony Duke can work.
There's nothing "ironic" about Duke Nukem. Duke Nukem was meant to be a parody of action movies, that's all. Anyone trying to pretend it was "ironic" or "based" is just kidding themselves.
I don’t remember saying the word based.
He's kinda like Dante from Devil May Cry. Duke is so over the top and cheesy that he loops back around to being cool.
@@FutaYuuta Agreed.
I always got the impression that he was a character that was meant too be taken seriously but written by people who don't entirely understand parody or satire. So instead of any witty characterization or clever jokes, Duke's writing mainly consists of just referencing stuff and that's it.
the way vinny looks back at 26:57 when he realizes the piss got the guard through the wall, then immediately tries the fire extinguisher... a brilliant mind at work!
Driving through Nevada on a motorcycle; having a break at a gas station; finally arriving at Las Vegas and maybe a side trip to L.A.... the setting was just right.
Wow. This popped up while I was watching Gman's Duke Nukem series review. Glitch in the matrix
1:01:46 That's a default Unreal Engine icon for a trigger object. I have no idea what they've done to have it appear in-game since it's only supposed to be visible in the UnrealEd level editor.
Oh man, even as unfinished as it is, it immediately has so much more soul, charm, and potential than the game we got in 2010. Really wish they would have just stuck with this version, maybe it would have released by mid to late 2002.
Unfinished Unreal 2 build of DNF: "This can't be good for me, but I feel great!"
1:06:06 POWERFUL ash tray.
By the end everyone just wanted it done, but this leak shows they were still passionate in 2001
This runs in Unreal Engine 1, not 2.
The dismemberment actually did make it to the final game. It acted more or less the same, aside from this unfinished game having better blood decals and bullet holes, though the final version *was* improved by looking gorier/meatier and having bone instead of just deleting a mannequins arm at the elbow.
Wow, vinny sure loves gold showering people and things
I'm so glad that a team went and finished and fixed up the first chapter.
A full vertical slice of what could have been.
6:40 Duke channeling his inner R. Kelly
When the modders ahold of this build everyones gonna ask Gianni Matragrano to voice Duke Nukem I just know it.
You already know this version is better when you see Duke has an actual jump animation in the mirror.
Man I’m seeing a bunch of Duke Nukem stuff lately and I LOVE IT!! I hope he comes back, man. I miss Duke and we could use a hero like him!!
What Vinny describe, on making duke come back, keeping his humour, with a touch of irony and making fun of him while also keeping him as the hero of the story doing what has to be done, that's actually kind of how I imagined it myself trying to think of how to bring him back, he's a bit older, he's a relique of the past, no one takes him seriously, he himself is way out of touch and unpopular as a result, then the main antagonist arrives, everything explodes and all, then Duke decides not to save the world, because fuck these ungrateful people, and new heros, who are more loved an more of the time fall one by one, because they're not Duke, so Duke decides that he, infact, will do it, because the other guys fucking suck and keep dying, and he succeeds, because he is Duke Nukem, and from that point on, yyou can give him a character ark, and keep the parts of him that makes it him, which wouldn't be easy, but it wouldn't be the first time an ancient finctional character gets organically updated. Just need good writers.
the alluring, intangible myths of pikablus and mewthrees are OUT. unreleased betas of video games as equally mysterious but important and TANGIBLE pieces of digital archaeology is IN.
They could like just release duke nukem forever 2001 now, and it would probably be a success
With all the 4k realistic skill vomit blast fps out there, something more nostalgic that hit closer to home would shine
Like, take a look at some indie games, bunch of them are exactly like that classic that try to have simple graphics
As someone who've worked on unreleased video games, I think it must be cathartic to see your work finally released into the wild in some form. It'd be better if it was finished but well... At least someone can have some fun with it, right?
Stolen from Randy's pitchforks USB next to his cp folder. Mind you this 2 years before postal 2
Probably a very likely thing seeing as a ton of them are currently getting in trouble for this.
OP, are you from the future; and if so, is there *another* borderlands game? *A good one?*
There's a hidden secret at 47:04 & 1:09:00. Ladies and Gnortlemen, we gottem.
1:01:32 The quota must be kept.
A L W A Y S .
God, this version of the game shares more in common with Postal 2 than I initially thought.
You can tell it's going to be a good video as soon as you see the thumbnail.
He missed a lot of things and complained that the graphics weren't on par with games that released in 2001, bruh. The graphical display here is on par and even better in some areas than the games released in 2001-2003.
Sad how this was so close to completion, only for the head of the development to look at that damn Doom 3 showcase and being so determined they MUST have that modern light system in their game. Messing up the entire development all over again because of that.
edit: That's not an elvis mouth, that a Twoface grin with those teeth showing off like that.
Missed opportunity of having Duke as both Adam and God in the painting.
At the start of the video but actually turning the sink on is something you can't do in cyberpunk
the empty levels just end up feeling cozy
11:21 Someone with 200 bucks to throw away should reach out to Jon St. John on Cameo or something and see if he could say 'yrbnmghj'
Or any of those guys who do spot-on Duke impressions on UA-cam
While I am glad that people enjoy 'Half-Life', it's a major shame that 'Half-Life' overshadowed 'SiN', because 'SiN' did SO much more in terms of immersion and having a living world of sorts. Yeah, I know it had cutscenes that weren't solely in first person to progress the story, but the interactivity of the world felt a lot better than anything in 'Half-Life', the voice actors did a better job (and were more varied), guns and combat felt better and were more punchy/gory, and I vastly preferred the action movie-like story to Half-Life's much more basic story. And honestly, I prefer 'Opposing Force' to the base game any day as well.
What is SiN?
@@SimpleSaemple It's a REALLY fun FPS game with some immersive sim elements that came out just a COUPLE weeks before 'Half-Life'. It's basically a big 80's sci-fi action movie you can play, with an over the top gore system, likable, memorable characters, and a really impressive interconnected linear world that SORT of reminds me of 'Deus Ex'.
It sadly got overshadowed by 'Half-Life', partially due to it iirc having a few problems on launch in terms of performance, but it's an AMAZINGLY fun game that I personally feel holds up a fair bit better than 'Half-Life' in both replay value, and just fun value overall.
It's uber easy to run, well paced, cheap, and as far as I know getting a remaster soon that will make it EVEN EASIER to play. I fully recommend it!
Nightdive is remastering SiN and Wages of SiN too right? Hope that's still expected to come out.
@@mostverticalproductions4808 I hope so too. As far as I know they are.
Accursed farms had a video on SIN where he managed to contact the person responible for the music and got high quality files from him for the original SIN if you are interested you might still find those.
Big issue is that the setting half life choose was fundamentally better then SIN and was also taking itself serious which makes bad voice acting even seem normal compared to SIN where its definetly meant as comedy where the bad guys laugh at how bad they are and the evil endboss lady has ridiclous chest physics, yet the game wants you to shoot the right body parts else you do no damage while blasting you with hype industrial tracks. It feels like SIN didnt know what it wanted to be and once it figured it out in the sequel not even the teens it was targeted for cared for it.
Ross also has a ton of issues he points out on the video where the Audio files are.
Is there a way to fix the "Debug Assertion Failed" error that prevents it running on some PCs? I get this bug so I can't play it and it seems to be luck of the draw if it occurs on a given machine or not from what I read about it. This is after following the installation/patching instructions to the letter i might add. EDIT: Fixed it. I just needed to disable DEP on the game executable. I’ve had to do that with games before but it didn’t occur to me this time.
There is actually a fan project already underway to fix this up into a playable game front to back.
Fun fact: If duke nukem forever came out 2001 it would predate piss on command that postal 2 had by 2 years.
Redneck Rampage is from 1997, and it already has the ability to pee on command.
@@panzermann1181 Shees, I Did not know that.

* MSPaint Goomba suddenly shows up behind Dookie Nookie * WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOOING
Alot of these maps do feel like unfinished HL1 mods made by some kid in an afternoon back in 1999
Oddly feels really nostalgic and not just because Duke Nukem is a video game icon
100% agreed with Vinny on the vibe and look of late 90's early 00's schut games, I really like the style of that era of games in general.
To be fair, I wouldn't say it was that outdated by 2001 standards. If you compare it to HL2 several years later, then yes. But if you compare it to its contemporaries like NOLF or Serious Sam, it would've been a perfect fit. A demo of this on PcGamer (if they had the balls to handle it) probably would've met rave reviews
ah remember the days? "Dude where's the porn?! Where's the barenaked ladies??!!" I swear that day wasn't today, at this moment.
Glad you are covering this, might put some extra attention to it if this would ever possibly be modded or finished but i feel like it would take way too much work to even get to that point.
Still cool to see it like that.
I'm almost glad all the extra interactive bits are in the game, and now it's simply (well relatively) a task of fixing the combat sequences, nightvision and the transitions
0:00 *I'VE GOT A PEER REVIEW STUDY RIGHT HERE THAT SAYS...*
Hmm...
*Says you're a capussi*
Piss is stored in the brains, and i have an headache
It's stored in the cheeks for winter.
You can access the dev console by pressing tab, there are multiple commands. The command for noclip is "ghost" without parenthesis, "allammo" for all weapons. There are maps that aren't present in the load level menus that you can access by doing "open mapnamehere" Go to the maps folder in the Duke Forever directory to view the map names.
can't believe they turned oh yeah piece of cake x∞ into a real game
Now that's a force to be reckoned with.
a lot of vinny's commentary in this boils down to "if this game was finished it might've been good"
this made me remember that one person who had saved the preorder receipt for this game for 10 years and compared it with the receipt for picking the game up when it finally released
Having played DNF in full, I can say with confidence this leak looks like the more playable version. Even the vehicle section visibly blows the DNF we got out of the water in terms of control responsiveness.
06:05 this is happening in the DNF 2001 Restoration project
I feel like this is uncut Nic Cage perspective from Leaving Las Vegas
or the Neil Breen experince of life in Los Vagus, since that mad man actually does live there...
