Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass [Official Site] from Croteam has me rather excited, it also has more information out and some fresh screenshots. Click the shots to make them bigger.
AAAAAAAAAAA!
Firstly, they're saying it's going to be a much bigger game with "huge environments populated with optional objectives, secrets and deadly ambushes". To be clear though, they do say it's not an open-world game, but the same linear experience as before. There will be plenty to shoot of course, with practically everything trying to kill you.
They've also now confirmed that the motorbike shown in the teaser trailer is actually something you will use. Not just that, they amusingly said you will be able to drive "a combine or even a bulletproof popemobile and drive your way through unfortunate enemy pedestrians".
On top of that, companions will be joining you directly in the game, not just cut-scenes. That sounds good, should be interesting for the co-op side of it!
Hopefully a proper trailer will be released soon!

QuoteNot a single desert level was created while making this game.Wow, so there are people who hated those. I wonder why, they're cool once in a while for a change.

Looks so much more colorful than BFE.
I disliked BFE for looking too much like a modern shooter with washed out browns compared to the zany fun of previous games.
Hopefully this keeps the wacky and quirky feel of the first games.
Day one purchase, assuming the Linux release coincides with the Windows release. And I'm happy to trust that Croteam will do a fantastic job of it. Hey, I might even buy the T-shirt ;)
Quoting: GuestThere were too much desert levels in TFE and BFE. I would say that it was the major flaw of level design in these games - the levels became boring too fast due to similar design.
While I'm fine with desert levels, in my memory BFE (the only Serious Sam game I've ever played) consisted solely of desert levels.
