[Game] Medal Of Honor (2010)
- Thread starter DraKon2k
- Start date
Just played a good portion of the singleplayer. It's so weird, the singleplayer is so good while the multiplayer is so bad.
Things I like about MoH:
- Minimalistic hud. Special hud key like in RO2
- Great gunsounds, unlike the multiplayer.
- Diffirent variations of AK47's.
- Tactical reloads.
- Graphics are pretty sweet. Esp. after a bomb dropped, and the dust has to settle. I hope RO2 will implement something like that.
I'm now at the mission with the 2 Apaches where you have to kill RPG teams. I've tried it 4 times already, and I keep getting shot down. So annoying. But so far, the story has been kinda blend, but the action is interesting. Also cool that it's in afghanistan, the terminalogy in the game seems pretty authentic aswell.

What does that even mean?
In the end I am torn over this game, I played the BETA and enjoyed it immensely. But I only got to play for 2 days, a couple of hours both days. I wonder how long it would hold me over as a full game, but again the time I did play it, fun was had.
At the same time, my gf wants Black Ops, her birthday is Oct 31, it would be a perfect birthday present, to get her Black Ops. Both games being $50, I think the better option/investment would be Black ops for her. ey?

(my lame joke)
It was a playable character in vs mode
I think MOH just came to the party a little too late this time.
I still might get it if the price drops far enough.
too bad that 1 year from now you'll be lucky to find 100 ppl online at any given moment, and these 100 will be split up due to three DLCs that will be released at $15 a pop
I am currently playing through the SP portion of the game, and here is what I walked away with.
The game is nothing new, does some good things and many more things poorly. The game is more like an interactive movie. But for me, I am enjoying the hell out of the SP, I am getting pretty damn immersed. The overall feel is better and more plausible than MW1 or MW2. The location is great and because it is based on the real world and real events against a real enemy, the game seems grittier and better than some cheezy Red Dawn knockoff that was MW1 and MW2. The gameplay is bland though, its pretty much the same as "Ramirez go do everything" that was/is the CoD franchise. Perhaps besides the location, the best thing this game has going for it is the sound design. The SP has some of the best sounds I have ever heard in a game. The weapons sound like real weapons, whether you are firing or someone around you is firing. The ambient sounds are also really immpresive and bring the levels to life. So for me the sound and level/graphical designs really bring this game to another level and really bring those cold ***** nights on a mountain to reality.
Perhaps the biggest enjoyment this game has brought me is the hope that some mod team or studio will take the good of this game a run with it.
The setting is so much better than any CoD game and really seems real. I want to see perhaps a game set over the course of one operation/mission on one mountain/ridgeline. A classic, but based off reality, mission where something goes wrong sorta like Blackhawk down. The game could have better pacing and have the missions set up to take place from the viewpoints of different units involved.
Missions from the pinned down/surrounded heliocopter crash
Missions from Quick Reaction Forces sent in to rescue the first guys
Missions from adjacent units trying to move in to blocking positions around the mountain to keep Taliban reinforcements away
And Missions from maybe SF units to take out some of the heavy AA emplacements so that a finial rescue mission can be launched.
With the above examples you could have a lengthy game with so many different types of missions to keep it fresh.
TLR, The game is very immersive in SP for me but not worth $60, I just hope the setting inspires better games/mods to capture this conflict and level of immersion.
