Hmm, the art in the screenshot kinda looks cartoony, and nothing like COH, it's most notable on the tanks and buildings. It may just be my eyes though.

i think its because its so clean and sharp, maybe some light and shadow modifications havnt been finished yet, giving it a bit of a same colour look (cartoon).

this will be an awesome game, cant wait!
