8.1. The Hive | Campaign Duke Nukem Forever Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Welcome to the hive. Go along the downward path to find a machinegun. Go back and follow the only available road leading up.

Eventually you will reach a narrow tunnel. You will see a glowing beetle which will immediately roll up. Roll him out of the tunnel and watch what will happen.

Beside the door (hereinafter "sphincter") there's a tentacle which will catch the bug and open the passage. After going through the second sphincter, stop and look left - you will see a faint light coming from a very small chamber. Use Duke Vision to make it easier.

Go inside the chamber to find another gun, but also another helmet needed for unlocking Bucket Head. This time it's the helmet of Isaac from Dead Space.

Return to the main path. On your way you will find spiked tentacles coming out of the walls. Look left below the "bridge", where you will also see a glowing "eye". In order to go pass the tentacles safely you have to shoot the eye which will temporarily close itself, blinding the tentacles which won't be able to see you sneak by. You can also shoot individual tentacles which of course is less economical. Move on and behind one of the bigger rooms you will come across a tunnel covered with sparkling "puffballs" - you need to shoot them from afar, as they explode if you get near.

Eventually you will reach a corridor inside of which you will find a dead soldier and a shotgun. Pick it up before moving on, as an Octabrain will soon fly into the room and the shotgun is great against it from a short distance. After reaching a bigger room, you will encounter shell-like creatures growing on the walls. If you approach it, the "shell" will open, chaining into a springboard.

Jump onto them to move on and don't worry about falling down - the flight path is predefined. Soon you will reach a room with Duke's favourite twins inside - unfortunately in a rather bad shape. After a while they will both explode, releasing small aliens.

In the same room there's a RPG which you can reach by jumping onto the glowing springboard. Inside the next room, apart from more "chicks" impregnated by aliens, you will also find three... breasts. Interact with them for an Ego boost ;)

Some of the imprisoned women will explode with "young" aliens. Trample them to unlock Hippy-Stomper. Inside the same room you will also find another "toothed" sphincter you have to open using the glowing bug. Move on along the narrow corridor to find one and return with him to the main room (Octabrains will attack you on your way back) and go through the sphincter.
