Gameplay looks a bit Serious Sam 3, which is a, uh... good thing, I suppose.
Monster design improved, and it's a good thing they went the more colored path, albeit lazily. Looks like they just took the original models and dumped them in vaseline... I loved the "eyeless bellend" design of DOOM 3, looked fittingly mean, IMO and they stretched out a little(very little) in monsters variety (cherubs). Frantic fight seems to be there, I just hope they manage to give the overall progression the sense of epic accomplishment original FPS had. Now that would be exciting. But thing looking like they do, starting from the cover art choice, point in a boring direction. Well we can sure say we have come a long way from D3 thank god.
I can't help but cackle in glee despite gripes :D The announcer should be amped up like the one from UT. I was honestly bored and depressed when I played the alpha.
At 2:43 you can really see how the player movement is so slow that you can't even dodge the sights of someone using a console controller.

They did the same thing in QUake3. For whatever reason, id feels that the announcer should be flat monotone guess they want a more serious vibe, maybe they felt past styles were too cheesy? kinda odd choice for muliplayer.
QuakeX announcer comparisions "Quake 2 is actually nothing like Doom or Quake"
It's exactly like Doom or Quake. As far as game mechanics are considered, yes they are the same... Player character kills enemies while progressing through various levels. However, the locations and the enemy types are completely different in each game. Which, in my opinion, was reason enough to come up with a different name, but they didn't. Remember the build up to Quake 2 and all the press about how the monsters would duck under incoming rockets?
LOL is how the overall movement feel a lot more stiff than Quake 1, or Doom for that matter, which is a major stepdown to what we got in Q1.
Also the smaller hitboxes for monsters with the still minuscule ones for the projectiles, making enemies harder to hit with rockets and blasters. Also fuck the Blaster, piece of shit is the worst starting weapon in any FPSes. At least Doom's pistol was hitscan. The Enforcer played a duck animation, but his box didn't change.
Lazarus had enemies jump over incoming rockets, run from grenades on the floor and so on. It was an awesome toolkit. as for new d4 footage, probably just me but still looks underwhelming IMHO. That was clearly scripted and even then we barely got any 3d gameplay.
That's the first trailer that made me really excited!
I wish my computers could run this beast (my 9500GT struggles with MK9�). These new designs are awesome! Seems mancubus have an aoe like the spitter from l4d2. You can see Marty Stratton observing from the shadows in the back left corner.
