What amazes me about Raven is how quickly they get games done in general.

By the way, to anyone curious, those bushes are DEFINATELY standard sprite based bushes, which means they look cool in still shots, but moving these are gonna look WEIRD.

(Oh well cant win them all)

This game NEEDS a multiplayer mode, released as close to launch as possible. A team deathmatch in the jungle would sell me instantly.

I dunno about you guys, but I don't see a reason for any game to have more than three, MAYBE four, types of grenades. 10 types of grenades?! Ugh.

HE or frag grenades, sure. Flashbangs, allright. Smoke grenades? Could be useful.
But that's about it.

I'd rather have some more cool weapons to play with or mines or pipebombs or something, but not six more types of grenades.
What are they, like, colored smoke grenades?
"Hmmm... I feel like PINK smoke today!"

Ugh.

Gunning from a helicopter reminds me of that scene from Full Metal Jacket:

"How can you shoot women and children?"
"Easy... you just don't lead 'em so much."

They're nice. I'd be curious to know why they haven't taken more advantage of Q3A's curved surfaces (at least in the new screenies). Maybe they want to keep the speeds up as much as possible. *shrug*

Still looks sweet. :)

Speaking of Thief 3, this kind of rendering would be really great if used in Thief 3.
