I thought the implication was, because the whole thing is one texture opposed to multiple tiled and reused, they can do whatever they want there without indirectly making somewhere else look pants. Which is kind of duh, but an obvious an obvious quirk of the megatexture.
id's new game / engine

Looks solid yes. But as Mazy said the things we got to see doesn't really show off something you couldn't do with a lot of other engines now.
-
The art looks good, I guess this will be much more impressive when high res media appears and those 20GB makes a difference from current generation games.
On the other side, the most interesting part of an engine to me is not what it can do, but how much time is needed to do it, and mainly, how it will perform.

Doesn't look all that impressive from the small shots. Looks like a precurser to the doom 3 engine

20GB textures?
WTF! i will never install a game that takes 20GB just for textures, its a complete waste of HD space, no matter how good the game will be.I'm going to quote this in 5 years.

Fallout 4: MMO time

Sweet, this means there'll be some nice demos at this year's quakecon.

looks like a racing game!?!
Looks like this StarWars racing game, doesn't it...?

Looks good to me, but Crysis & UE3 = harder to impress!

Wait a minute. I thought this was the Doom 3 engine but with "Mega Texture" support developed by the Quake Wars Team.
It's not a new engine is it? D:

In a former thread about Megatexture i was rather critical but if what sa74an said back then applies (Megatexture on every surface) it might be something.
what i said was basically what JC said at last quake con.

I think i recognise those handrailings.

every id game looks like a mod of the one that came before it, imo.
