[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Bet you they're saving

Spoiler

Mecha Hitler

for Wolfenstein 3.

Or it's a double like Castro during the Cold War.

I wanted more shots of kkk getting their heads blasted off D:

The latter 100%

The latter 100%

Nah
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus |OT| So much for the tolerant left

I love this game. Fuck nazis.

 

[BRSxIgnition]

Nah

It's neck and neck, IMO - regardless, I think it should tie in to the current unfortunate state of America for added relevance.

I like that. Simple, doesn't try too hard to be clever, and get's the point across clearly.

I almost posted this, but I didn't want to apply modern political affiliations to a game about alt-history.

Nazis on the other hand are always Nazis.

 

[roytheone]

I was going to wait a bit and get Mario first but I guess I'm getting them both at launch now.

Spoiler

Hitler will totally die in this game and come back as Mecha Hitler for the next one.

My guess too. It would make sense to have

Spoiler

mecha Hitler as the boss of the final game of this trilogy.

Only a week - two left. Excellent.

Only a week - two left. Excellent.

That's not "only",that's way too long

 

[Shaanyboi]

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus |OT| Back home, you were the Nazis

This cuts too deep for the general GAF populace

I've been waiting for months. A week-two is nothing.

 

[EatChildren]

Man, that trailer end spoiler teaser:

Spoiler

The New Order set a precedent for survival after body death, Strasse having engineered the technology to transplant brains to mechanized host bodies. If Hitler is sick and dying the lore (of all things, in Wolfenstein) has been established since the first game to see the Führer in a mechanized war suit

.

 

[Johndoey]

Bet you they're saving

Spoiler

Mecha Hitler

for Wolfenstein 3.

Or it's a double like Castro during the Cold War.

I think they flat out said that's what they're planning on.

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus |OT| Back home, you were the Nazis

This is great.

 

[nkarafo]

I really hope he's actually some worthless, half-rotten, propaganda figurehead who spends his days shitting himself in his bed as he feebly clings to a scant husk of life

And then you just do him in with your bare hands.

Nah, that's just putting him out of his misery.

Beating him in his most powerful form would hurt more.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Only a week - two left. Excellent.

I have to wait until November 12

 

[Gnome Scat]

Aw that trailer was a bit too spoilery.

 

[.Anema]

Holy shit that was awesome!

 

[AngryMoth]

This looks really fun, I actually might play it before Mario

 

[ErMerGerd]

Ahhhh! Gotta play Old Blood still

 

[Azzanadra]

What are the gameplay improvements over the first one? Is it in any way more like Doom?

Its on id tech 6, so we don't have that goddamn idTech 5 jank which IMO severely hurt the gameplay of TNO.

 

[BBboy20]

Debra Wilson?

 

[Merchandise]

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus |OT| Mein Führer, I can walk!

This one is underrated tbh, good job

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Two questions:

Does “The New Order” play well on the Xbox 360? Don’t have a XB1 or PS4 and interested in checking it out.

Is the 2009 Wolfenstein title worth a play through?

The 360 version runs at 60fps but looks pretty ugly, from memory.

 

[SmartWaffles]

No it won't happen because

Spoiler

MachineGames have written Wolfenstein as a trilogy and they've said there's nowhere to go after Mecha Hitler, I'm pretty certain he'll be a boss but the very final boss at the end of the third game, assuming they get to make it.

The only reason this won't happen is if Bethesda tell them they're not making another Wolfenstein game and so they end this one with him but I don't think they have.

If anything I can see Hitler looking sick in this trailer leading to him dying/looking for a way to live on aka his brain in a robot like the first game - Mecha Hitler and that leading into the third game where he's now the main villain

I can see that happen, and I like that.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Better than nothing. I’m starting up a GameFly account when Doom for the Switch launches next month so I’ll add it to my queue alongside Doom 3 BFG.

 

[OfTheOverflow]

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus |OT| The Wolf Achtung Us

Okay, this one has my vote.

 

[BobLoblaw]

Oh man. Nazis and the KKK. So much replay value.

 

[BBboy20]

The 360 version runs at 60fps but looks pretty ugly, from memory.

Cranked on max on PC and plenty of the environments still look like it was pasted over in N64 graphics if you look just close enough.

 

[Burt]

Nah, that's just putting him out of his misery.

You're not wrong

But remember

Nazis love powerful Nazi imagery

Nazis love the Nazi imagery in American History X

If they want to make Hitler a final, super OP boss, fine, whatever. But, given the quality of original villains in the Wolfenstein reboot, they could easily find or create someone less tropey that didn't give Nazis an aspirational power fantasy figure. And, if they did, they could fucking ruin the real life Nazi figurehead easy peezy.

 

[Bollocks]

god dammit, that looks like so much fun, just flat out shooter with a great fictitious setup and a simple message to get everyone on board

Do I really have to play AC:Origins and Wolfenstein side by side?
y u no release 1 at a time games industry.

 

[J3nga]

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus |OT| No Nazificial Flavor

 

[SomewhatGroovy]

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus |OT| They had no idea what they were getting into

 

[BlackDoomShadow]

I really want to play the 2014 game and expansion but the price tag is putting me off a bit, any chance they might go on sale before the 27th?

 

[DieH@rd]

Nope, not watching. Release is close.

 

[Jocund]

Wolfenstein has a standalone campaign that seems ripe for the Horror sale on PSN, so, maybe?

 

[SolarPowered]

MMmmmmmmmmmm

This is what I came for.


mmm

 

[NKnight7]

Not watching to stay mostly spoiler free, but I can't wait! I played The New Order this year and was surprised by how much I ended up enjoying it.

 

[Bjoern the Smexy]

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus |OT| The Wolf Achtung Us

This one makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

MMmmmmmmmmmm

For whatever reason this scene of BJ killing a KKK member is different in the German version of the trailer:

(German trailer is here btw, would be cool if it could be added to the OP, as people from Germany (and maybe even Austria?) can't watch the international trailer )

Man, that trailer end spoiler teaser:

Spoiler

The New Order set a precedent for survival after body death, Strasse having engineered the technology to transplant brains to mechanized host bodies. If Hitler is sick and dying the lore (of all things, in Wolfenstein) has been established since the first game to see the Führer in a mechanized war suit

.

But wasn't Wolfenstein 2009 basically the start of an alternate timeline, with some time-travel and parallel dimension shenanigans? Wouldn't that explain why he's still alive?

(Disclaimer: I sadly I never played Wolf2k9, so I wouldn't know exactly. I only ever read the HG101 article about it)

Also I just happily pre-ordered the game on Steam and made space to install both the international and German versions of the game (200GB of free space should do the trick, right?)

 

[Bjoern the Smexy]

whoops d/p

 

[Jazzkokehead]

Cranked on max on PC and plenty of the environments still look like it was pasted over in N64 graphics if you look just close enough.

The New Order's visuals and performance are definitely limited by its engine, but wow is this an incredibly dumb exaggeration.

 

[Always-honest]

Will buy and will shoot every nazi and kkk cunt i see.

 

[Manu]

For whatever reason this scene of BJ killing a KKK member is different in the German version of the trailer:

Probably because there's a visible nazi flag in the background on the original trailer.
