PvP is usually used to refer to rpg's. But yeah as has been said over and over, MoH has nothing fresh or innovative.
Its roots were sabotage and subterfuge in single player, and one on one deathmatch in multiplayer lol
True dat, but I don't see why PvP is mainly for RPGs. I can see why it's a term that is actually used because it's player-versus-player, but hey, so is a competitive FPS.
Started the beta yesterday and I am definitely getting this game. One of the first things I noticed, the sounds. Now the sounds in bad company 2 are great, but in MoH they are much better, especially... especially the weapons. They are louder, stronger, they actually sounds as they should, powerful.
The action is more fast paced, but this is mostly due to the more contained spaces of battle. The Combat Mission game type is my favorite... out of the two available on the demo. It is very similar to rush, complete the objective, and keep on moving to the next. Creates clearly defined front lines, which creates more memorable firefights, and people seem to provide support to each other and stay close.
Funny thing, little of a side note; when I first fired up the game, I came in there blasting, with great kill streaks and kill/death ratio. Played on the same server for about 30min. Took a break and joined another server, and then I sucked horribly, at one point my K/D ratio was 3/11. WTF?
Anyway, great game.

Generally in multiplayer games, all gameplay is player vs player, in the rare cases that it isn't its called cooperative gameplay.
So in fps games, multiplayer = pvp, and coop is pve
i guess it may have orgionated in rpgs, as fps had 'deathmatch', but seeing as that's an unsophisticated term as DM has evolved, pvp seems more appropriate.
That "competitive" usually describes a playing style, rather than a style of game, or rather, it is usually the label applied to clans and players who enter online-ladders and the like, so it's a rather muddy term to use..
The point is.... Medal of Honor's multiplayer has never tried to simulate combat the way, say, Red Orchestra does. It has always been DM, TDM and objective-based rounds that are essentially akin to Counter-Strike's de_ maps.
Call of Duty was basically a spin-off/rip-off that touted a single player that would move away from the James Bond stuff and focus more of soldiers in the field (while still having the player do everything and blow up half of the OB West). COD's multiplayer was never all that different from the MOH forumla. Seeing this new Medal of Honor now try to emulate some of the recent elements seen in COD4 like weapon unlocks and ranks is really not suprising or even disappointing - it's just trying to catch the wave it lost 5-8 years ago.

Wait what?
A logical person can see the huge differences. I mean, obviously the way you die is completely different, in BC2 your body stays upright somehow and only your head tilts to the right or left, while in MoH you get to see yourself enjoy the same death animations as in BC2 when other players die! That's at least 30quid worth of important gameplay features right there gentlemen!!

Terrible game for me, first beta didn't impress and second beta impressed me even less. I rather wait for a real game, like Heroes of Stalingrad. :IS2:
...it would not be fair since good ol' CoD would get no players, and generally there would be no competition.
No, we reserve this feature for HoS.
