Medal of Honor: Warfighter


Recommended Posts

When I say that kind of trailer makes the game look good I mean, "good". It hides behind the fast edits, pumped up music and ends up looking just like any modern set fps game; bland, unintersting and average.

Yeah but to the people who aren't like us it looks amazing which is why the CoD videos appeal to so many people, most don't think about it like that tbh.

I really loved the single player in the last game. The only bad thing about it to me was how short it was. So far, I don't like how it looks like you're going to be playing as different special forces from all over the world (at least from the trailer). If that's the case, the story won't have such an impact as it did in the last one. The last one really captured a sense of camaraderie that's missing from a lot of those "mindless" shooters.

Yeah I have to say, my expectations of this game went really, really down.

I happened to have read a feature article about it in the latest OPM magazine this morning, and I just watched the new gameplay trailer just now, and this just looks like a CoD clone now. Everything I liked about the MoH series prior to this is being bastardized to fit in with the modern shooter mentality. It may very well be fun as hell to play, but it just does not come off as MoH IMO.

I'm really looking forward to the single-player campaign.

ugh, I can't stand the marketing attitude this game has. It tries way to hard to make out that it's all super serious realistic characters & emotionally powerful story. But it just comes off to me as more over blown nonsense.

I prefer serious and emotionally-driven stories over comedic ones like Battlefield: Bad Company & Bad Company 2. What do you mean by "over blown nonsense"?

Why do the trailers look so cool, and when the game itself comes out, its disappointing.

I hope this isn't the case here.

And FrostBite 2.0 was pretty obvious

Exactly, they always use cut scene videos and never actual game play. It looks great and hopefully not more of the same.

Oh, don't get me wrong I prefer the serious & powerful stuff too, but the style in which it's portrayed: the visual effects, the dialogue, the trailer edits, it's all very "obvious" & hollywood. Pairing that with a self serious tone, and I feel it comes off as quite emotionally remedial.

But perhaps it's just the trailers and marketing.

Maybe it's just that way in the trailer, but if they continue with what they did in the last MoH game in terms of the story and presentation, and just up the length, I'll have no complaints.

I thought the overall experience of the first one was pretty great. Yeah it had bugs and could've been a bit more polished but I had no complaints.. Maybe it was a bit too short.

I think they will solve all those issues with the second one and it's using Frostbite 2.0 !!!!!!! It looks stunning!

My fav multiplayer games from the first one:

I tried it, and it's not bad, but it's certainly not good, either. The problem is they didn't fix most of the major issues that were in the previous Medal of Honor, such as the poor spawn system. There's also not a whole lot of guidance given, and the menus are absolutely atrocious -- not well designed, far too much information thrown at you, etc.

The gunplay isn't bad, and there are some really neat ideas, though. The graphics are, however, bad, but my guess is there will be improved textures in the final version (just like the Battlefield 3 beta to retail version).

Played a few more rounds and now, frankly, it is feeling a bit better.

Graphics and Sound, as stated previously, are very good. Especially the sound. Everything relating to sound is how it should've been.

Spawn system, as also pointed out by Anthony Tosie, is, well, pretty bad. Infact I hate it. It should've been more like Battlefield 3'

Guns have a more Call of Duty-ish feeling, which I personally don't like at all, given the fact that how awesome the gun system was in Battlefield 3.

I will most probably get the game only for single-player. I highly doubt I'll spend much time with the multiplayer.

I'll play on friend' PC

:p

Absolutely agree.. the initial feeling is a bit of a turn off but man.. as you start playing, leveling up, when you understand how the game flows it gets A LOT of fun.

The build we are playing has SERIOUS issues but this is the build from E3 I believe. There are issues with menus, lags, spawn issues, recoil and hitboxes are a bit wack, some attachments won't work etc.. but despite this I found it to be very entertaining after initial negative reaction due to it being different from the previous MOH.

This is what the game really looks like when you get into a bit more hectic engagement and people have stuff unlocked.

The single player looks AMAZING

    • What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact.
    • I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output! Memories...
    • I'm not sure about that, but it at least "does" a version of 7.1 that this brand new card doesn't....

    • I can barely recall getting web results from a file search... I must've turned it off long ago. 26H2 is Insider's Preview build 26300.8697, which I am running, atm. It is not available for people running the standard commercial builds of Windows--only for the beta test Insider's group. But anyway, as mentioned in the thread, this feature has been around for a long time...
