New Quake Wars Video

Watch.

I'm really lookin forward to this game, but after watching that, i dunno. I don't seem that impressed, at least not graphically. From the trailer, it looks like BF2 could achieve those looks.

BF2 looks just as good(even though the game sux). Graphically the game is not impressive unless it just ain't cranked up in that trailer.

That trailer sucks ass. BF2 looks more exciting.

And the graphics are horrible. What took them so long with this game, or is the doom3 engine just a POS engine that can't do large environments and requires a 8800 series. Static foliage and sparingly detailed trees and environment. Wow, that reminds me of UT2004. Looks like they took the Quake 4 engine, added HDR and that's it. They could've freakin used the Source POS to do that and not need a 8800 series.

come back when you've both played the damn game, and then let us know what you think. really, graphics aren't the end-all of games.. i'm really tired of "ZOMG IT LOOKS LIKE CRAP SO IT MUST BE"

BF2 was incredibly boring, with no concrete objectives to achieve, only OK weapon sounds, and vehicles that were horribly unbalanced.

Thanx for the link 🙂

DLing now...

 

[n7]

Nice! 😀

Looks like it could be very fun.

WTF was that? A poor man's Verdun?

 

[Ichigo]

Not that this bideo was brilliant, but BF2 looks much worse, even so.

We were talking about graphics, nothing else. So relax.

The amount of detail does seem to be a little bland and the texture quality on the buildings look dull.

The gameplay in the trailer sucks ass. It is slow paced and none of the strange things that the player does is explained. This translates into boredom. However, that doesn't mean that there isn't potential in the game. It just means that this trailer sucks.

And of course, the graphics are very unimpressive for a game who will be sold amongst other games using next generation engines. It better be cheaper.

Agreed. This isn't really a trailer as much as it is a random piece of some dudes demo who is playing the game with very little information about what is going on. At one point it looked like a base got nuked too.

I didn't really have any complaints about the graphics other than the stupid fisheye lens they used at times. I will say the sound struck me as odd more than anything else. They sound like they are firing pea shooters and no big blasts out of the rocket explosions. I hope that is just the sound codec they used or something...
