The trailer rocks!!! Awesome that it's all in-game.

Now here's my question that I hope someone can answer. They said it's using the MegaTexture engine... Is that a modified Doom3 engine, or is it the new engine that John Carmack is making (and thus, his last full engine)?

Thanks for the link!

As for the engine, modified Doom3, I'm 99% sure. Though I would bet that Carmack lent a very helping hand here and there.

Carmack's next engine isn't on the table yet, as far as I know.

Damn, thats the one that was shown @ E3 last month! Oh well, its still nice to see it again.

Never seen that before, looks pretty cool. It even has STEREOTYPICAL VOICE OVER GUY™, awesome.

It's a good idea for id to moderize ET. They did quite a good job (IMO) with Wolf: ET. It's probably the most teamplay you can find in any online game. I hope they can stick with such a formula in ET: QW so teamwork is re-emphasized just as much as Wolf: ET had it.

Probably a paid game, doesn't look like a free game, unless they are just going to take Quake 4, change the stuff up and recode and release as free (yeah right).

Kick ass.

Looks a lot like another Battlefield game IMO. I rather they stick with infantry, I bet there will be a ton of people standing there camping for vehicles.

QFT. I liked how Wolf: ET had vehicles to complete the objective, not as part of the gameplay. They might as well make a vehicle-only mode.

I'll pass on this one.

It's nice to have something to look forward to.
I high have hopes for this game.

Yeah, when I play BF2 like half of my team are camping the homebase waiting for aircrafts to spawn :\

Trailer looks cool (but they always do). I guess I'm tentatively looking forward to this.

 

[G-Dub]

Can't wait to see this bad boy in action. Hopefully it'll be as good if not better than the last ET.

/me goes to watch trailer

 

[boglito]

It had better not be as identical to BF2 as it looks in the trailer.
Or else....

.bog.

Its Doom 3 engine. Mega Texture is a texture compression method or generator(can't remember which) that is being used for large terrain textures.

Here's the high quality trailer right from Activisions FTP site:

Also, not much is really known about the MegaTexture tech (although it is in Doom 3...not used in the game, but it's in the engine). Apparently they'll give details about what it is at QuakeCon.
