This might be seen as an effort to coax the developers into providing some video goodness and in a sense it is, but it also shows how far the title has come during the last few months.
A short video showcasing some of the core elements would not only help to pacify the restless among us, but also fuel the excitement even more.

As far as i'm concerned, i don't even need to see full detail DX11 graphics glory if there's interesting stuff being done in the video.

I was thinking along similar lines. I recently made the move to Win7 and was able to re-watch the 'leaked' Spitfire video, only this time on full screen, and it completely blew me away.

The thing is that it looks SO much higher quality than most of the screenshots we have seen - the three-dimensional realism and excellent lighting really comes out.

Is it because that video has been done in DX11 or DX10 mode with AA, while most of the screenshots are pretty rough quality (no AA,etc) DX9 ?

Interestingly the other video showing the British vehicle convoy looked much closer to the quality in the screenshots. Was that DX9 too or just much lower-res than the Spit video?

Still, it leads me to think that the final quality of all this when seen in motion in the game will be far ahead of what is hinted at in the screen shots.
