Text from when it was:

1. – Slate Material Editor:

A node based material editor that helps significantly improve workflow and productivity for artists creating and editing complex material networks.

_____________________________________________________________________________


2. Quicksilver Hardware Renderer:

Create high-fidelity pre-visualizations, animatics, and games-related marketing materials in less time with Quicksilver,an innovative new hardware renderer that helps produce higher-quality images at incredible speeds.

_____________________________________________________________________________

3. Local edits to containers:

Collaborate more efficiently with significantly enhanced workflows for Containers that enable users to layer local edits non-destructively on top of referenced content.

_____________________________________________________________________________

4. Accelerate modeling and texturing tasks: with new tools that extend the Graphite modeling and Viewport Canvas toolsets:
A revised toolset for 3D painting and editing textures within the viewport; the ability to paint with object brushes to create geometry within a scene; a new brush interface for editing UVW coordinates; and an interactive tool for extending edge loops.

_____________________________________________________________________________

5. Viewport display of 3ds Max materials:

Develop and refine scenes in a high-fidelity interactive display environment—without the constant need to re-render— with the new ability to view most 3ds Max texture maps and materials in the viewport.

_____________________________________________________________________________

6. 3ds Max Composite:

Enhance rendered passes and incorporate them into live action footage with 3ds Max Composite: a full-featured, highperformance,HDR-capable compositor, based on technology from Autodesk® Toxik™ software.

_____________________________________________________________________________

7. In-Context Direct Manipulation UI:

Save time when modeling and maintain focus on the creative task at hand with a new in-context user interface (UI) for polygon modeling tools that help eliminate unnecessary mouse movement away from the model.

_____________________________________________________________________________

8. CAT integration:

More easily create and manage characters, and layer, load, save, remap, and mirror animations with the Character Animation Toolkit (CAT).

_____________________________________________________________________________

9. User Interface customization:

Maximize the usable workspace and focus on the features that matter most for specialized workflows with customizable user interface layouts.

_____________________________________________________________________________


10. Additional New Features and Enhancements:

Updated OpenEXR® Image IO Plug-in
Save to Previous Release
Windows® 7 Operating System Support
Autodesk® FBX® 2011 Software File Link with Autodesk® Revit® Architecture Software
Native Solids Import/Export
Autodesk Material Library
Google® SketchUp™ Importer

From what I gathered at the XBR webinars, they'll be trying to integrate pflow/fluids/smoke/reactor/cloth and all the other disparate systems into one unified dynamics engine but I presume it'll eb a release or two away yet if it does materialise.

Anyhoo, here's some videos:

I was kinda' hoping that iRay would be integrated.

Still, it's nice to see much more development of the core than in previous releases.

I hope the Save to Previous Version actually works. I can start to export models from 2010 to older versions for sale on TurboSquid.

I'm hoping the performance issues with 2010 are all gone then.
Sure its nice new features, but if it doesn't get back up to speed on performance then i'd rather stick with 2009. At least for modeling.

I agree with the performance issue, but I love the chromium modelling tools!
