If you're not sure what I'm talking about, a leaked version of the forthcoming multiplayer portion of Wolfenstein hit the interwebs last week sparking massive forum debate and outcry at the quality of the game as it was leaked. id's Community Manager, Sokal, was quick to defend the game and also assert the aformentioned wrath, which you can read right here.
In a nutshell though, competitive gamers will have access to the game's SDK once it's released, and id are, of course, promising post-launch support in the way of patches and fixes as needed and addressed by the community at large.
While on the topic, we have a new Wolfenstein trailer up for you today you can check out right here.

By the way, I like how Wolf is WWII, and you used the spelling "basterd".

dunno what you dudes mean by the plastic look? the monsters looked a bit like that, but i didn't notice it too much anywhere else. i'll give it another watch. what would be a game that does the castle/dungeon environment better graphically in your opinion?

The two engines are like apples and oranges, they excel in different ways. CryEngine 2 is better than both of them anyway :D

id tech 5 engine is brand new and everything still looks plastic (besides the skyboxes), just much more detailed looking plastic, still looks good to me though.

considering the money they've made selling their ideas to figurine makers this makes a lot of sense.
I wish Valve would headhunt JC.

Regenerating health - Thanks Halo you f*****g douchebag of a game for introducting this into main stream FPS gaming.
Camera - Shakes worse than a parkinsons victim in a rally car. Running = nearly impossible to see s***
Retarded game mechanic - I don't want to have to rely on a gay medallion to play the game and see "hidden" paths.
Aiming - Yet another game where you need to use your iron sights to do s*** all.
Hitler - His name is Hitler, not f*****g Himler. Does some US company own the rights to his name or something and refuses to let anyone use it?
"Sandbox" try hard - Just such a bad choice IMO. Keep sandbox style game play to games like GTA where it actually means something. In an FPS it just pisses you off running around the same retarded town going to black markets and s***.
Graphics - Now i'm the first to say that graphics don't make a good game but these look like a tweaked Q3 engine. The previous Wolenstein game had better graphics IMO.
Worst of all though it feels like a bad console port. The menus are akward to navigate and voice acting just sucks. I half expect the TF2 medic to pop up when I hear people yelling about dummkopfs in such bad german accents. Just do what Crysis did and have actual german used by the NPCs. At least we still have valve who put PC gaming first. 1 1/2 hours played and then deleted.

I don't mind regenerative health, though.
