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

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The $1,428 option The Steam Hardware lineup that Valve announced last year is slowly starting to roll out. Following the recent Steam Controller launch, Valve has now confirmed the price of the Steam Machine, its all-in-one console-like solution for PC gaming in the living room. There are currently four variants being presented, with only the storage and the included controller being the biggest differences. All of the Steam Machines have the same internals consisting of a semi-custom AMD Zen 4 CPU with six cores and 12 threads, an RDNA 3 28CU GPU, 16GB of DDR5 memory, and 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM, all inside the familiar box Valve has been showing off for months now. The Steam Machine base model starts at $1,049. This has a 512GB NVMe SSD but does not come with a Steam Controller. Keep in mind that storage can be expanded with the microSD card slot too. Next, the $1,128 model has the exact same storage as the previous one but it does come with the new Steam Controller. If you need the Steam Machine to have more storage for games and apps than that, then the 2TB tiers are also available. The $1,349 Steam Machine has no controller once again, but it does ship with two extra faceplates (red fabric and solid walnut) to replace the standard black one. The final option costs $1,428, and it adds the controller back into the bundle. The Steam Machine ships with the Linux-based SteamOS. The box has a 1 Gigabit Ethernet port, DisplayPort 1.4, and HDMI 2.0, as well as one USB-C and four USB-A ports. Keep in mind that when purchasing standalone, the Steam Controller has a $100 price tag. With the above bundles, that drops to $80. It's a rather expensive machine for the internals it is touting, though the design and small form factor do help it somewhat. However, at the same time, the lack of upgradability hurts it. Valve says the ongoing parts shortages and massive price hikes for memory were the leading causes for this price. "The overall effect is that our original goal for the price of Steam Machine is no longer viable," added the company. "So the prices we're sharing today reflect the state of the world for manufacturing; or, more accurately, it reflects the price of the components as we've secured them over the past 6 months." Valve wants interested gamers to reserve it now to get the chance to pre-order a Steam Machine starting June 25, with shipping starting on June 29. Head here to sign up. The invites to buy it will be sent in a randomized order.
    • What the press release doesn’t mention, however, is how much water the natural gas plant itself will consume, Natural gas plants use about 2,803 gallons of water per megawatt-hour produced, which is significantly less than coal-fired plants that use around 19,185 gallons per megawatt-hour. Overall, natural gas plants are more water-efficient, using 584% less water than traditional power plants on average. AI generated
