Interesting looking engine. Much more advanced than the original, but at the same time, is looking very disappointing.
The performance is really bad, even with a high end system. Empty levels will seem fine but adding objects heavily dents framerate. ( Do not hold this against the engine, performance is being worked on all the time )
Graphics are very bad at the moment. World shadows look pretty high quality. Textures and filtering looks up to snuff and polygon counts are good. Apart from that, the rest looks bad.
