First Gameplay Trailer - ITS NOT A MOBA

The name honestly gave me a slight bit of worry it was a MOBA somehow.

Anyways, looking pretty and quite authentic to Quake. Accuracy while flying through the air off jump pads or rocket jumps is the focus of the trailer, as well as possible other power ups or maybe character abilities? There is one moment a player just shoulder charges through another player and kills them and at one point the player throws out some kind of electrical orb thing. I guess we will find out more later on that stuff.

I love the gruesome eye constantly looking around at you on the one map. Fantastic.

Maybe we should not doubt Bethesda or id. They're on a roll.

Bunny hopping and rocket jumping. Looks good.

Well now I'm on board. MOBA fears were real but this looks like some Quake-ass Quake.

Yup that looks like Quake alright.

Did that guy just kill another guy buy sprinting through him? This looks promising.

Yo that eyeball was huge

Seems a bit slow for a Quake game but they've got me attention.

it's not a moba!

it's a survival game

eat your heart out we happy few!

I'm going to have to call my doctor in 4 hours, that looks amazing. Jesus.

How long before a big backlash about character abilities? "This isn't Overwatch!"

Psyched that it's basically a Quake game, but not feeling the production values. Aesthetically, it looks like something NetherRealm Studios would make, and the sound design doesn't have that beefiness Quake 3 had.

I mean, that was my backlash as soon as the trailer was shown at E3, so presumably other purists have had that thought already as well.

This looks like the game the Doom MP should have been. I was more of a UT guy that a Q3 guy but this looks cool. Hopefully the character ability/stats doesn't turn off the hardcore. Would do well for the game to include a "classic" server type which normalises all the character HP/Skills.

It's selfish but I hope this doesn't mean I won't be getting my dark gothic shooter SP game in the style of Quake 1. For a game that was basically the result of several competing visions the style of Quake 1 is unmatched in the series.

Looks hella fun as someone who doesn't play multiplayer.....ever. I might actually try it if its reasonably priced.

I've never played Quake multi, does it have the MK announcer commentary over the action, like him saying "excellent" and stuff like that?

@otakugamer: nothing wrong with Quake on consoles. The gameplay especially shines with a mouse but I have had fun with it on a controller.

To the discussion on character powers: I do not see anything wrong with powers. Could add an interesting layer. If you want the same old Quake it's already out.

Looks more Quake than I thought it would be (I like many worried it'd be a TF2/ OW sorta game).

Cautiously optimistic.

Also if you want arena shooters, Diabotical is on kickstarter now and is generating some pretty good hype - actually it just made it's funding!

Not a fan of a lot of the weapon designs, they look a bit overdesigned. Some of the lighting in some of the levels looks a bit flat too. They also need to stop demoing their games at low FOVs because it makes them look slow.

Still got me on board though ive always been a quake over unreal person and that new unreal is proving thats still the case. Keen to get this in my own hands.

Not digging the weapon designs, but good nonetheless.

Bruh. That looks like some legit-ass-Quake with nicely detailed graphics!

It makes me wonder: are people more excited for this, or Unreal Tournament?

Sprinting through someone to kill them has to be the funniest thing I've seen in a while.

So tight.

Yea that looks smooth enough for a Quake game. Shame the weapon models don't have the same sleek design from other id software games.

I'd pay $10 for that.

Actually it's a lot like Bioshock.

For everyone that wasn't satisfied with the DooM multiplayer, Id has a solution for you in the form of Quake Champions.

@ntm: As someone who has played the new UT alpha quite a bit, I can safely say I'm more excited for this. Aside from it being a finished, polished game and all, I was never a huge FPS guy back in the glory days of Quake, took until Counter-Strike for me to really start getting into shooters and even then I still never became amazing at them.

I'm looking forward to getting in at the ground level with everyone else; many of which may be a newer generation lured in by the game's more varied cast of characters or something. New UT is cool but it's all bittervets as of yet.

Wow - looks pretty fun. Hopefully it's priced reasonably though. Not sure a MP FPS can justify a $60 price tag in today's PC world. $40 seems about right to me.

Jumping rail shots is so satisfying to watch. I'm now hyped.

And juuust like that, I'm sold.

For a PC exclusive I was expecting better graphics but I'm just happy a AAA PC exclusive is coming out we need more of them.

@big_denim: Didn't Overwatch cost $60?

Game looks fantastic. Rocket jumps and railguns. SOLD.

@colonel_pockets: The base version of Overwatch is $40 on the PC. There is an Overwatch Origins Edition that has extra skins and stuff for other games for $60 on the PC. The Origins Edition is also the only version available on consoles.

@voodoopc: Ohhhhhh, OK. I forgot they sold the game without the skin packs.

this looks rad! After how amazing Doom was, and after this trailer, I'm now 100% on board. I don't do many multiplayer shooters anymore, but this is the type I would.

Brad needs to make sure he gets into the beta and play it on UPF or some other video feature
