The classes worry me, i mean there is a wallhack in that trailer. Balancing classes for duel isn't going to work well and doom MP is terrible, i'm not convinced the devs know what they are doing. This also is happening way too soon for id to develop it themselves.
On the plus side doom SP was surprisingly good and they've confirmed strafejumping. If there will be mod tools the basis should be good enough to turn this into something decent.

They turned what was a great IP into a heroes, Overwatch style shooter.. poor show ID. Should have kept it true to the original to be fair.

It's unlikely to be like Overwatch. Quake 3 CPMA had a mode called NTF (Not Team Fortress) which was a class based version of CTF and that worked quite well. I wouldn't consider NTF better than the 'standard' gamemodes though.

There might be a gamemode where everyone is locked into the most "vanilla" character; I'm keeping my hopes up for now
