Despite the negativity of the writing in there, he does have a point about the weapons. The negativity is kind of justified in that regard, if it turns out that's how it plays. (Though the game isn't ready for release yet, so I guess it could change, but seeing as how Duke is supposed to be over the top, I doubt it.)
Having overpowered weapons ≠ fun, unless you're the guy owning everyone else. I wouldn't be that guy, I'm not very good at competitive modes. Therefore, dying constantly is prob more frustrating than fun, I think.

I'm with dethy on this one. That article is retarded. I'll bet the reviewer never even played Duke3D.
What's going to be great about this game (I hope) is that it will bring back the FPS mechanics that were shunned around '98 or so and that nobody has really gone back to.
You want unbalanced multiplayer? Ever tried playing Rise of the Triad and going up against a guy with a Firewall or Drunk missle? yeah.

The demo unlocks next week for First Access Club members.
I'm pissed that I'm currently stuck in a back water town, miles away from my PC and consoles.

So you like being ass-raped over and over again with hardly any means to defend yourself?
Hey, if I buy the game I'll probably still check it out, that's the real test.

when it comes to old-school deathmatch there are only two options:
1) stop sucking
2) get out
you'll notice whining isn't in that list

You act as if being good at deatmatch is easy.
Maybe for you. Not everyone is good, and not everyone wants to be ass raped.
