Thought it was Doctor Who themed, from the title. Would of been quite diffferent.
This DLC kind of decides the future of the Duke Nukem series seeing as this is the first piece of work that Gearbox are doing entirely on their own for Duke Nukem seeing as almost all of Duke Nukem Forever was from 3D Realms. I just hope it's good.
Offtopic: Does anyone else feel reminded of TimeSplitters when seeing this picture?

The colors, the characters, the map design, the look of the weapon, ... it all looks like TimeSplitters to me. I hope one day we will see a new TS.

Didn't Crytek buy the developer studio that was working on TS4?

Oh fuck off with the hate already. It's not a bad game. People like you just expected the best game ever created because it was delayed for 12 years.
News Flash: DNF was restarted 4 times, which means every build of the game was made in the span of 2-3 years.

Did you play it on console?
Also I just bought this DLC. 1.6GB. Pretty beefy.

Not DNF's fault you have a sleeping disorder.

First time in the many games I've played that I've done anything like that
I think it may be DNF that gave me a sleeping disorder

It is completely untrue to the Duke legacy. Combat, compared to other duke games, is too slow and more spaced out. The turret and car missions where a bore. 2/4 weapons, joy. Duke is bad ass enough to carry them all FFS. Duke wasn't as witty as he used to be.

Did I mention the terrible, HL2 style physics puzzles? Or the childish toilet humor? "hurp a turd, so funne ecks dee u can pee in toilet ecks dee so funneeee"
I say this all the time, but DNF was just bland. Not terrible, not good. Duke turned from a witty parody to a snarky jerkass written like an episode of South Park. Yes, the best game ever shouldn't of been expected, but Gearbox's 'finetuning' and Realms' own 'final product' were crummy to begin with, engine switches aside.
It says something about a game when the first big patch essentially allows you to use four weapons in the campaign instead of two.
Played worse games than DNF, you guys should take a deeper look into the shit instead of scraping off the surface with DNF.
I heard the master of open roaring combat slowly recovers Ego (sic) by sucking his thumb behind cover like a little girl and still manages to say "Powerarmor is for pussy" with a straight face?

You're right, it isn't bad.
It's horrendous.
From the muddy and outdated graphics, the simplistic, lifeless, linear level design, the powerless, unexciting weapons and the equally unexciting firefights, to the pathetic attempts at implementing modern shooter mechanics like quick-time events, driving sections and the derivative, generic puzzles.
That's not even getting into the forced, juvenile, mysoginistic and obnoxious sense of humor and the constant jabs at popular shooters of today(hint: taking the piss out of Halo, Gears of War or MW doesn't mean anything if you're wholeheartedly embracing everything those games stand for).
Duke Nukem Forever is everything that was wrong with the shooters of the 90s combined with everything that is wrong with the shooters of today.
It's hideous, it's embarassing, and it never should have came out to begin with.
Long story short, Duke Nukem Forever is the new Daikatana.
Deal with it.

Duke used to heavily employ secret finding and rewarded you heavily with HP kits (which where rare). With regenerating health, there is no reason to go looking. And even if there was reason, you wont find anything, since it simply is not there.

you know i can't eeven hate on DNF, it's just such a tragedy, it's like being forced at gunpoint to make fun of a child who's just fractured his limbs in a blender.
I actually enjoyed Duke Nukem Forever. This DLC looks fun.

Oh, okay.
I mean, the general consensus is that it's awful.

People say that it's hated on because we were expecting too much but it's really the opposite. The fact that is has Duke Nukem in the name has created fanboys around this game to defend it no matter what it was like.
I think if this was a completely new title that wasn't Duke Nukem related, it would be a lot more hated.

They both have pretty terrible scores for the same reason: they tried to modernize an old game. They tried to turn something that was innocent (though gruesome) fun into a "realistic" shooter (in the loosest sense of the word). The only reason anybody bought these new games is because of the brand (gimmick). They expected it to be better, and most of the people who are too blind to see that a game is a game, and not its name, will blindly defend it. But if it wasn't Duke, or if it wasn't Sam, these games would be lauded as the worst games of all time, like Meller Yeller above me said.
I prefer to just stick with the classics.

Are you fucking implying that Serious Sam 3 is a bad game.
I enjoyed DNF. I turned off my soopar srs gamer mode and turned on my 90's kid mode. It satisfied my 90's kid mode.
