Saw a 10 minute video of gameplay on gametrailers, looks kind of interesting.

Cinematic trailers like this are dumb.  It looks like any other cinematic trailer out there.  However, the actual gameplay for the game is pretty impressive.  They should have used real gameplay to advertise instead of this crap.

Sure, Starship Troopers, StarCraft ..  valid comparisons, but what got me was the Dune style thumper, if that was what it was supposed to be.

Maybe they wouldn't be dying so much if their equipment wasn't so impractical and badly designed.

The trailer was interesting, and the game is being developed by some former Blizzard guys. So I guess you could say I'm optimistic.
