Blizzard Releases New Ulduar Video

There's a new Ulduar preview video, and unlike last time, it's straight from Blizzard. I've embedded it here in HD, but you can also download it in various formats and watch it on Blizzard's site, if you want. Now, this trailer may include some spoilers for those of you who are averse to finding out anything about Ulduar, but I couldn't help but watch it through a few times.
From what the preview shows, the new raid being added in Patch 3.1 looks to be much more diverse than what I had originally thought it might look like. The few mobs that are shown look spectacular, as do many of the rooms that look to be where boss fights will take place. There's a small hint about the controversial vehicular combat included, but still not a ton of details about what will be encountered.
What are your thoughts? Are you avoiding all hints of what's inside or can you not get enough info?

That looks beautiful!
This is going to be EPIC
Not the kind of trailer I was expecting, but it gives a nice overview of Ulduar.
I can't get enough info lol, I want to know allllll about Hodir, Freya, Yogg-saron, that Gnome head mount (lawl.)
awesome... all i have to say.
that last part kinda reminded me of hellboy 2 the movie
Any ideas on the date that 3.1 will hit?
OMG that has everything! Underwater stuff from the looks of it and a fricking train. How great is that!
Very nice. Thx Juggy for the preview.
Guess I'll have to get rdy for that raid... ned a few more levels tho :)
later parts of the video remind me of gnomergan.
this is where we find out that gnomes and dwarfs came from the same path, but the gnomes were gheys with pink hair, so the titans made them smaller.
LOOKS INCREDIBLE!
I 100% can't wait for it. Granted I'm probably not geared though :(. I'm totally going to be taking a screenshot at everychance, the visuals are just EPIC. The bosses look cool too. This is Blizz's way to reward the Lore nuts. In other words, me :P
Thanks Juggy
and keep up the good work PL
Thats a raid? in WoW!? Blizzard has outdone itself!!
Was anyone else struck by the similarities between the leaks content and this content. Almost like the same people decided what should go into each.
Man this is going to be one of the most beautiful things blizzard has done. congrats cant wait till it comes out
This looks to be my new favourite dungeon/raid. :O
It just looks beautiful. Intriguing too.
And kinda reminds me of Ratchet & Clank. :P
Blizzard has designed some beautiful and Epic looking instances since WoW's release but I think I can say this looks like their best work, the design just looks so beautiful and diverse and the sheere size of the thing they are showing us is Epic.
Can't wait to see this instance and find out why we are fighint Hodir, Thorim, and Freya I mean I thought they were on our side?
Idk, surely will be interesting!
You guys with the 3D nvidia gonna get epileptic seizures :D
That is 1 awesome dungeon. Imagine guys, if in 3.1.0 you're already going up against the Titans, sooner rather than later, you'll be barging through a portal and storm Argus (burning legion planet) and fight Sargeras himself.
WOW blizz your have your work cut out for you i mean we are exiceted about the upcoming patch which that raid we see and duel spec as well many other fun surprises the best about the last expenichion wrath of lich king is getting to fight the king him self aand as AWSOME as the above preview is the opening of the gates needs to be even bigger hw are you gointo top that
Beyond Breataking
Meant to say breathtaking
CAN'T WAIT this place looks EPIC beyond belief my finger will be on the print screen button constantly taking pictures of the place :)
I don't know if I want to go through on my Death Knight, Hunter or Mage.
If I decide to go with my Mage..I have 59 levels to go :D
Is it just me, or does that last room they showed look alot like on of the mako Factories from Final Fantasy 7?
There's something very FF7 Midgar-ish about the music playing coupled with the magical-mechanical feel of Ulduar's graphics... Love it :)
FINALLY A RAID WITH TECHNOLOGY AS A THEME ;D
i have been hoping for that ever since i did gnomeregan 1st time =P
