Wolfenstein: The New Order

I'm getting it for PC.
My copy will arrive Tuesday while I'm at work, so, at lunch I'll come home... register the key on Steam and go back to work. By the time I get off work at night it'll be fully installed and ready to go.

50 gigs is about what I expected the install size of this would be. The fact that the textures were more detailed then RAGE's made me think the install size would be a bit larger.
I think the game looks great. And I can't wait to get my hands on it... 18 more days.

 

Not every game has a Steam pre-load though, Damien Azreal, so let's hope this one does!

 

I'm getting it retail. So, my copy will arrive on Tuesday, and I'll install it on lunch... that way any updates or anything that needs to happen will happen while I'm at work and it'll be ready when I got home.

 

So a 50 GB game on disc is going to be, what, 4 DVDs? Reminds me of when I bought Doom 3 and it came on, wow, 4 CDs!

 

The original UT2k4 was on 6

 

Return to Castle Wolfenstein is for sale on Steam for the next 24 Hours.

Only €2,49.

Also a Wolf Pack for €3,74.

Which includes: Wolfenstein 3D, Spear of Destiny, Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

 

The Wolf pack just annoys me.
Since Bethesda won't bring Raven's 2009 Wolfenstein back to Steam.
It was on there originally, but Activision had to remove it... and Bethesda just never bothered putting it back up.

I was hoping that with The New Order's release coming up, it's bring Wolfenstein back... but, seems not.

 

I'd love it if the game has a "zen mode" as a new game+ option where all the cut scenes are skipped and nothing gets in the way of the action as if you're playing brutal doom or something

 

I'm rather annoyed myself. I've played it on the 360 but would like to add it to my PC collection.

 

I own it retail wise, but I'd like to have it on Steam as well.

 

Yeah it sucks, though I didn't really like the 2009 game that much I would love to have the whole collection on steam, especially since W:TNO is steamworks even retail and all its sequels will probably be so as well...

 

What 50 gb?
But somebody said they won't be using megatextures. I mean they could get lower HDD space with same graphical quality.

 

Then lets hope its massive level design.

 

If we are comparing it to Rage, it will be only twice the size of Rage in gameplay.
Rage had about 24 GB.

 

I thought it was using megatextures, maybe it's cutscenes and audio then.

Probably see this a lot more often now that both consoles are using BluRay for storage?

 

I'd really be surprised if it isn't using MT. Why else would they use idtech5 then? Licensing fees?!

I hope these guys too aren't wasting space only for uncompressed audio like TF or even pre-rendered cutscenes ... I'd have to leave the PC on overnight to download this if the download is also 50GB >_< I had 512k barely over a year ago, it would have been a two week download at least Would've definitely quit gaming at that rate.

 

Also happend with Killzone Shadowfall. About 50 GB but generic, lame story and boring gameplay after first few hours.
I don't like that next gen games are so power hungry and seriously lacking in quality content.
We'll see about Wolfenstein. Hope it can be predownloaded.

 

I'm hyped for this game more than Watch_Dogs.

I hope on launch SLI support is there. Nothing like slaughtering nazis at high framerates.

 

Yeah, I too hope it turns out well and Beth publishes more classic IPs like Quake.
