Hummm ...
I don't know but some outdoors in UT3 are great 3D art , beautifull,
i agree some levels/areas are like Gear of War :
some grey/dark tones colors.

I have played , and i own Quake Wars that uses paging multitextyre for terrain.
The terrain texture are not enought detailled at max , and have some variation , but not as much as i would want.
Im' not impressed at all by their new techno, let's wait for them to push it some more ?

And it seems to be pagined textures for terrains , not for characters, meshes ...
let's wait for them to show us some game using ultra detailled textures on
charcaters / levels ?
