Ragdoll physics of enemies are bad, guy is shooting them in the head and they fall towards him as if the bullets are hooks pulling enemies.

Body should fall in a direction that enemy is walking/ running at, since it carries a lot more kinetic energy than a bullet, at best the head itself would bounce back a bit. From the vids ragdoll is fine, you're trying too hard. Go back to school.

Impressive excuse but it won't do.

Good to hear that the ATi, having won console bids for both consoles, still can't make drivers worth a shit.
Game runs decent enough on ultra on a 7950 (50+ fps so far), doubt it's the drivers since from what he says I run the same version. Had a couple of freezes per level so I guess I should set it on high, since it fills the 3GB on the video card.

Not really enjoing the shooting so far, too much screen shacking, pointless debris, forced railroading and emotion, fucking "nextgen" plague...

That's really disappointing. 43gb for a heavily scripted game that's 5:30 hours long...

All those ridiculously big space requirements are the best DRM there is. No fucking way I'm downloading 43 gb of shit.

In fact, no way I'm buying 43 gb of shit either, even if your game is the second fucking coming.

It has a great $/GB ratio though!!! That must mean it's good.

Dat engine!
It really does not bode well for Doom 4. Rage looked good when you were moving fast in vehicle with bigger landscapes ahead. But smaller maps looked partially really ugly, and the constant texture loading sure didn't helped. And it was so short that I thought it was a beta version or early build. The characters looked very good though, they weren't copy pasted and put into the game. There were voice actors from Doom 3 and RTWC too.
That being said I won't even bother with New Order. I had a little optimism at the beginning but it was melting like ice during the spring. The series should be left to Raven. Even if they didn't impress me much with the last one, at least it could have some nice moments. This looks like a new Syndicate title to me. Shame.

The really nice thing about the engine is that when characters show teeth they all look like dat ass meme.

Game deserves some kind of award for that fight. Biggest gap between coolness of boss design and utter patheticness of the actual fight and his attacks. WHY DOES THE BOSS DEAL 1 DPS AGAINST A PLAYER WHO HEALS AT 5 HPS AND GET STUNNED INSTANTLY AND FASKCDSADVDFSAFV?

As soon as I saw him I imagined a cool mecha-nazi fight but then he turns out to be a slow as fuck unmaneuverable joke who can barely hurt the player and exists as a cutscene dispenser.

holy shit the generic evil doctor who gets anticlimactically shanked at the end has been the big evil behind-the-scenes villain in every Wolfenstein game since RtCW :lol: Not that anyone cares about Wolfenstein plotlines, but... Jesus.

Well, at least the protagonist's face is designed to look like :retarded: at all times.

Also, still better sex scenes than BioWare.

I was sorta contemplating on buying this in a year's time for some € 7,50....but downloading 45GB for some banal shit boring game that I'd likely quit after 15 min. just isn't worth it.

What a waste of everybody's time.

5 hours of gameplay doesn't surprise me. Welcome to NextGen. Like I said the Metro series has set the standard -- retards want railroaded script-fests.
