Title: 3D Realms Website is Down
Post by: Methuselas on June 11, 2004, 11:17:54 PM

I guess the company's as vapor as Duke Nukem Forever???


Personally, I'm tired of waiting and I can't stand shooters, but I'd buy it if it EVER came out???!???

Damn. I've been waiting for this game since it was based on the Q2 engine. They might as well just cancell it, it's obvious it's not being worked on.

I stand corrected. Apparently the site was just down yesterday, but there was nothing new, so I'm wondering what that was all about.


They shouldn't be having money problems, they sold Max Payne for 45 mil.

not originally, they changed the "base" engine several times.

It went from the Q2 engine, to the Unreal engine, to a now HEAVILY modified Unreal Tournie engine.


Still, it looked amazing when it was shown in 2001. I just think that 3D Realms is waiting for Doom 3, so they can do what they did the first time: blow it out of the water.
