The GameTrailers HD preview is very nice. I could comment on the non-softshadows that crawl... but that would just be toooo picky. The flames and explosionts are great at times--so far we have only been shown the mild/lame ones. Some of the stuff is like 0_o. Eye opening. When the lighting is just right the shadowing from trees and glare/HDR really look outstanding. The gameplay looks solid and there seems to be a lot of variety.

I am VERY impressed with GRAW. I was down on it about 6 months ago due to some of the REALLY POOR media released, but the new preview footage is in the same league as the E3 stuff. Good job GR team!
After seeing that movie i'm even more hyped up, that's the best GRAW video i've seen so far and i can't believe how this game looks and how it seems to play. Those explosions are so amazing i can't believe that they could've realized that...

one thing with other people playing the game in a video they do some things i definitly wouldn't do :D Like using full auto firing mode, playing the game like your John Mclane (Die Hard for the movie nono's :D) and doing stupid stuff (although i haven't seen it in this graw movie)

I know it's everybody's own preference but i like to play this kind of game like it was meant to be played: Tactical Combat.
Using cover to my advantage, shooting an enemy before they even see you (i like to play sniper class :D) and using single fire (sometimes burst fire in close combat situations) and using Stealth (although i'm not sure it's possible cause i've got a feeling some of those NPC's see you way 2 fast, but that's only a guess)

I absolutly hate using the machinegun weapons in the previous GR's. Those weapons maybe good for mowing down enemy's who are next to eachother in the open but that's about it (in my perspective). Accuracy is crap, Reload times are longer (although i've read on some other forums that reloading takes he same amount of time for every rifle/gun).
That's also why i hated how some people used those machineguns in multiplayer in GR2 and GR2:SS, running full speed through a level, firing your belt-fed 200 round machinegun :S

That's why i rather play (team)games without respawns (people tend to play more slowly and less rambo'ish because you'll get your head blown off in a second)

That Gametrailers video is the final straw, I can't remember the last time I was this excited in anticipation of a game!

Firewire: We think alike! Though I do love to play as a Gunner in support of a squad and lay down heavy covering fire! :)

Good to know that i'm not the only one on these forums thinking this way :D

I'm also pretty interested in how things work in multiplayer:
For example:
Who controls the UAV drone in multiplayer? (I expect the highest ranking player per team)
Can i manually select who i'm following in multiplayer with my crosscom?
Can i see where a person is aiming, for example a teammate says i'm getting shot and u ask where from and he shows you by aiming in the direction he's getting shot from....

It's got allot of possibility's, i'm just eager to know these things and play the game :D

Well i dont have any links to answer you... but ive read all your questions before...

Who Controls the Drone in MP?
- The squad leader does, the squad leader is selected in the lobby by team or random if no one votes (usually gets highest ranked automatically)... you press 'back' it brings up the map and you contol it like that...

Can i manually sellect crosscom?
-ofcourse you can it is controlled by d-pad

Can i see where hes aiming?
-look trhough the crosscom to see what hes look at... or if hes squad leader he can put a point on your hud thro the map. also when your budy looks at some one it puts the enemy on the map as a red diamond...

Apparently development is well underway for the follow up to GRAW, though I think one of the models needs tweaking.

Besides the obvious placeholder model (Empire State Marshmellow Boy??) it has Bland lighting, and is it just me or do the leaves on the trees look flat?
