New Wolfenstein The New Order New Gameplay (New)

I was really down on this game from the last trailer (or the one before that?) but it's looking fun from this trailer. The music is awesome too, wonder if it'll actually be in the game. Guess I'll be buying it after all.
 
I dont get the praise this game seems to get for the shooting.

The lack of damage skins really annoys me. After putting 30 bullets into a nazi he should look penetrated and bloody all over. Instead hes just as clean as if he was still alive.
 
This game looks awesome. I hate stealth anything in games, so I'm quite sure I'll be enjoying the mayhem route.

I really like the duet song. Can any German speakers say what the lyrics are about?

I can see some dismemberment though. Head, arms, legs, and chest.

You actually have to press the button (on PS4, it's square). We tried several methods and got to a point where picking up with the button felt right. You rarely need to look down to pick them up, you just start running, and it's very quick that you get them as you press on the button.

It's a little disappointing. But it won't stop me from enjoying the game.

Watch the video again.
 
So excited for this. I've watched the previous walkthrough videos countless times now.

Sound design seems like a mixed bag, though - some weapons sound great, others sound really weak.
 
Watching the downloadable video from Gamersyde, which is cleaner and smoother than youtube obviously, i notice the standard issues of id Tech 5, which are jaggies and blurry textures.

The game looks cross gen anyway and i think we all are getting it for the mindless slaughter, but i can't stop thinking that it would look better elsewhere and i'm still worried about other games using the engine, like Evil Within perhaps.

I'm also worried because all the videos are 30 fps. I hope it's true that the game runs on 60 fps.

it's going to be 60FPS
 
Stealth looked way more fun than I was expecting. Those no crosshair, hipfire headshots from across the map were impressive.
 
Can't wait for some crazy fun, I am up for alternate history almost any day. It'll be what Turning Point Fall of Liberty should have been.

Stealth looks cool, I agree. I'm gonna see how far I can get.
 
I hope other devs look at this for how to do proper gun feedback when shooting. The guns look so beefy and powerful.

Thought the same thing. The guy playing knew what was up.

Can I express once again how awesome the musical production in this game is??!!

The lyrics to those songs are just so wonderful.
 
Sold.

Bonus rushed avatars up for grabs~

Gimmie a transparent version of the last one (can't do it myself at the mo').

You missed this. ↓

Notice he's headshotting guys super far away with out ADSing. Looks like ADS is just there to appease the unwashed masses, not because the game is a true ADS shooter?
I should note that we captured the footage with the HUD off, but that our capture screen has a center point that works really well (almost too well) as an iron site. :)
 
Opening the trailer with some old dude blowing a Nazi's head off with a shotgun, who then proceeds to hand us a rifle and instructs us to "kill everyone?" I like it.

But... after having watched the past few trailers and the streaming gameplay videos, I kind of don't want to see much more of the game at this point. I mean, they've already pretty much sold me on it, so I don't want to spoil the whole thing for myself before it's even out, y'know?

I had to look up to see what ADS means (I'm pretty new to shooters in general and they aren't my favorite but I can enjoy them especially if they have a good storyline).

Why are people so against them? I guess I prefer ADS and don't like shooting from the hip. All I gotta say is as long as the option is there (it does look fun and unlike most of you on this thread I think I'd prefer playing the stealth way but I prefer sniping and stealth to outright just shooting my way through. Half the time I consider it a fail in a game that allows stealth if I fail in my stealth even if I manage to succeed my way through by the game's terms).

Anyways, I read a while back some review that had played it that said the story was pretty good. And this looks good. I may just have to get it (which is making me happy cause since Witcher 3 was pushed back I haven't seen anything that has gotten me excited for my PS4 yet, but this video actually did get my interest).

There are damage decals, though.

Maybe I'm misremembering from the demo I played, but I think there was an option for the laser dot reticule? Loved the red laser dot in Riddick and Darkness, specifically because when you lined up a headshot, it would get bigger to confirm you've got a kill shot.

Maybe gstaff can correct me.
 
I'm just glad that more and more people are starting to board the hype train for this game. I know that FPS is a tired genre to many people, but from what we've see it looks like Machinegames are trying everything they can to revive the mechanics that made the genre great. All while maintaining an overall package that should still appeal to the masses.

I want the game to succeed, and it looks like the mechanics are all there. Here's hoping it doesn't fall over when it comes to pacing and level design.
 
Oh god it's so beautiful, so damn beautiful.

It's just so obvious to me how big a fan of Wolfenstein MachineGames are, I fucking love you guys and gals. Bring it on.

ADS slows down gameplay, which sucks for really action-y run 'n gun FPS games like Wolfenstein. Unfortunately, since CoD started selling gangbusters most FPS have forced it in (regardless of the appropriateness of the mechanic) just to sell to the masses.

Im a fan of single player only FPS games, I bought Riddick Butcher Bay, Singularity, Darkness 1 and 2, Metro LL, will buy this one, and I plan on buying whatever game that is SP only out of principle lol.

I didn't played Assault on dark athena or something though.
 
Bah!

I was hoping he would kill the grandpa and blow up the car in the mayhem route...
Why would he do that? Why would you want that? BJ would rather kill Nazis than act like one.

I'm torn here: on one hand, if a game offers a stealth playstyle, I usually go for that, and it looks fun here; on the other hand, the mayhem playstyle looks fun too.

Decisions!

Makes sense--the termination point of the laser is closer to you, and would appear wider if it was actually touching the enemy's head.
