GRAW new vids at IGN,video preview

WOW, now that is totally next gen! The preview that shows the inside of the warehouse with the glass ceiling and the light coming through is just..... wow, I have the same feeling watching vids of this game as I did when I first saw vids for Half Life 2! These vids are totally new and are a must dl, the music sounds fantastic and the animation is some of the best I have seen in a game to date (if not the very best)!!!! =)
 
nice to see stuff like the cover move, prone rolling ...and some other fun stuff i havent seen much in movies before.


game will be fun stuff !
 
i watched the preview vid, i had no idea about the bradley. that is cool shit.

i'm going to refrain from watching any other vids (unless blim is able to get his up) as i feel i've already seen more then enough and would not rather spoil the impact of seeing new stuff live in person in 1080i and 51" :)

as far as the busy hud, iirc not only can you remove the threat indicators, but the entire hud is customizable too. would be fun to go through without anything at all i'd imagine
 
couple things that stood out to me, seems you can move your team in the same way you moved your teams in Full Spectrum Warrior, and the other ghosts still seem to get stuck on obstacles and dont move very fluidly.
 
Not sure if this has been addressed but does anyone know if there is any multiplayer LAN? If so, how many boxes can be hooked up?
 
We are going all out with this video as a new concept for the site. I don't know if Ubisoft will let us release it, but we are doing it anyway as a prototype to show other publishers if need be. So it will take time to finalize the whole video concepts. Hopefully we'll have something to show ubisoft by the end of the week, with a release this week end. We'll see.

wow blim, that sounds awesome...looking forward to that...hope ubisoft will allow u to release it
 
I don't really get the hype over that IGN preview vid, but the multiplayer vids I saw earlier kicked ass. And really, that's where I'll spend most of my time, anyway :P
 
Damn it, March cant come soon enough!

Im a little dissapointed with some of the animations but everything else looks sexy. I also noticed your AI soldiers getting stuck on objects. Lets just hope this was ironed out for the final release. TXB's preview said there were a couple of AI bugs in the preview build they recived.
 
The airlift briefing sounds amazing. Very cool that they are going for such a seamless experience.
 
Am I the only one who is completely turned off at the constant tearing in this game? Don't you guys see it, or do you not care? If we have to put up with tearing just to get these graphics is it worth it?

It's just crazy how many 360 games have so much tearing, is this going to be an issue with 360 throughout it's lifespan? It's a shame cause I'm an xbot and feel quite let down.
 
if u didnt see the gameinformer vids.. worth checking out too

Tearing drives me nuts. It certainly won't stop me buying the game, and hopefully loving it. But it is very ugly, and I wish it would go away.

Finally, sheesh. It's absolutely blatant in every vid of GRAW released so far, and I can't believe I've been the only one on gaf to bitch about it. I think it's unacceptable, I want this game so bad though :(
 
These videos are (AFAIK) from the preview build. The game was still under heavy optimizations when I saw it running a few weeks ago, and the preview build was a few weeks old at that time.
Hopefully GRAW will be as good as possible with the retail build.
 
I am really torn on this game. All of the recent footage looks fantastic, but I have never been able to get into squad-based shooters. I've tried both Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six, and I always feel like I'm babysitting; that my team is more of a burden than an asset. I know I'm just playing with the wrong mindset, but I just can't seem to shake it. Much of the time I'd order my team to stay put and play through the level solo, more or less defeating the whole point of the game.

I always think that I'll be able to get into these kinds of games, but it just hasn't happened. GRAW just looks so damn good, though... I'll probably never learn.

Well maybe now that everyone and their mother has released the videos they will let me do so, I didn't ask. Anyway we are using this footage as an opportunity to create something new for the site so we'll just wait until it's all done and see what happens.
 
The IGN Vids look hot, but enough with the teasing already. There have been way too many videos/screen shots/previews this past week or so. Just release the game and put us all of out our misery already! :)
 
Next gen visuals along with next gen animation. I will never doubt Ubi Soft again.

x05 scared the crap out of me, but they've managed to successfully match the e3 vids.
