FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

11/19/95 - Duke Nukem 3D screen shots
=====================================

Common Duke Nukem 3D questions:

Q: When will it be out?
A: The offical responce is "When it's ready".  We are trying for a pre-XMAS
release, but will hold the game to early January if we don't think it's ready
to go out.  We will NOT rush the game to make some lame deadline.  We are
getting more and more optomistic as the days go by though.

Q: What are the system requirements?
A: 486 DX2/66 (local bus recommended). The basic answer is "What are you happy
playing on?"  We are "happy" with the above system.  8 MEGS of ram and CD will
be required.  Also, a CD-ROM is required for the registered version.

Q: What weapons are there?
A: Still tweaking and working on them, but the basic list is: Kick, High speed
pistol, shotgun, 3 barrel chain gun, rocket launcher, pipe bomb with remote
detonator, shrink ray (really fun), microwave assault cannon, wall mounted
laser trip bomb (plant and forget).  Obviously some will be held back from
the shareware version.  Which ones?  Dunno yet.

Q: How many levels are there and how big is the shareware version?
A: The shareware version will be 5 levels and a secret level.  4 of the levels
are going to be really fun for network play and the other two fairly large,
but slanted towards single play more.  The full game will have another 21
levels or so, depending on time.  At least 18 though.  The shareware version
will likely be between 4 and 5 megs in download size.

Q: Can I be a beta tester?
A: No.  Sorry, but we have all we need at the moment.  We'll post a message
if we need any more.  Please let us get back to work :)
