What an annoying trailer.  Just show me some nice footage instead of epilepsy inducing cuts between shots.  The little bit of gameplay in there looked fine, I guess.

@shinigami420: Maybe it will be a huge ass DLC(Shivering Isles?)Maybe it will be a prequel?Maybe they didn't like the title Metro 2034?Just throwing out ideas.Plus I don't see how there can be a big difference seeing how great looking(graphics wise)Metro 2033 was.
 
Oh and that trailer was pretty sweet.I liked the artistic style instead of just plain ingame graphics.

Oh god that trailer was horrible, all the scenes flash so fast that I had no idea what was going on the entire time. There wasn't a single scene that seemed to last a full second.

@shinigami420: Just looks like the original game?  This is all concept art and brief flashes of the game. Gamers sure like to make snap judgments based on the smallest bit of content.

@clank543: It's an FPS. You shoot things with bullets, surely you can work out what the gameplay is gonna be like without the need of a trailer showing you the obvious.

Except that Metro 2033's shooting mechanics were quite different than most FPS and more often than not in bad ways.  So no, one can't work out what the gameplay will be like.

This is metro 2034. They renamed it. Basically the book was a bit of a pretentious arty affair. Not very similar to his original 2033.  
 
Therefore they renamed the game. 
 
p.s. this trailer killed my epileptic dog. Game must be awesome.

Should be pretty cool. Metro 2033 secured it's place as one of my favourite shooters, (alongside STALKER SOC and HL2,) so I'm pretty much going to pre-order it whenever the option is available.

And MW3 looks like MW2, Fallout 2 looks like Fallout 1, Infamous 2 looks like Infamous 1. It's a sequel in a series, of course it's gonna look the same.

I totally agree, the one thing I hope they fix up in the sequel is the combat (i.e., shooting and stealth). They nailed the atmosphere the first time around, and I even loved all the crazy mechanics like repairing your gas mask and hand-cranking your flashlight.

Fuck yeah, any trailer with Portishead's "Machine Gun" would get me hyped, but the talk I've heard about this series has me interested in what they can do with a refined take.

I really, REALLY don't like using known music clips for trailer mashups. When I want to listen to Portishead I do that on my own, thank you.  I hate this kind of marketing.
Composing the music for a game is very likely one of the last steps in development, as I would expect composers need finalized visuals to match their music to. Releasing teasers early in development thus means using known music, stock trailer music (which pretty much is known music), or silence, unless you're going to compose something specifically for the teaser, which might require a whole separate deal given how far in advance of their actual work it would be. I'm not saying you don't have a right to hate it if that's your opinion, but my guess is it's a necessary evil.

If anyone wants to see the brief bits of gameplay from this trailer, someone on RPS did just that!

Bonus points for the use of Portishead.
