Forums - Gaming - Medal of Honor 2010 Beta?

KylieDog said:

I'm in the beta.  Its kind of a mix between CoD and Battlefield Bad Company 2.

 

You have similar thigns to kill streaks but they are based on points and not kill count, 40 points withotu a death unlocks the first one, that could be four 10 point kills to the body or two headshot kills would get 15 points each meaning you only need 1 more kill.  You also get points through objectives though.  The kill streaks aren't as retarded as CoD ones.

 

Damage isn't as high as Call of Duty but its more damage than Battlefield, you can get shot and still find cover in time.  I've not tried the objective mode much yet but the team deathmatch mode map size is similar to CoD size.  No perks like CoD so no silly knifing from 10ft away.

 

Weapons are customisable, usually have a positive and negative at once, for example to get less recoil when firing you will do less damage to balance it out.

 

Its more like CoD overall than it is Battlefield but when it comes on what to buy it probably isn't unique enough to buy in addition to CoD but instead as an alternative.  Depending on your money flow it maybe not worth buying in addition to Battlfield either. 

So basically this game doesn't know what it want's to be. It's trying to be everything. No thanks.

So mixing elements of other games doesn't make it its own thing?  Either has to clone CoD or BF perfectly or it has no identity?

 

You see the flaw in that logic right?



You mean copying elements of other games. This franchise is dead period. All there doing is copying things from these games,because there really desperate to revive the franchise. It's like making a movie sequel that does'nt need to be made. I stand buy the fact that the game does'nt know what it wants to be. This is all my opinion of course,so don't take it to seriously.

The game wants to be a more realistic CoD, with the focus on a whole army working together with vehicles rather than CoD's solely infantry based action in multiplayer

It does have different aims with multiplayer than SP. SP is split between the special operations with Tier 1 and then larger scale conflict also taking place

It is not having an identitiy crisis, and the game is looking promising



I haven't played it personally but Giantbomb did a quick look of it. Needless to say I rather deal with the noob tubin' prestige hackers who have modded controllers. My friends didn't care for Battlefield 2 and I still don't so I was certainly looking forward to what Medal of Honor offered but It's not looking good so far.

 

Then again this is just a beta. They have a few months to go to polish everything up and release a full demo to the public, and then I can be the better judge.



It's just that simple.

say that all you want,it'll still flop in the sales department. I don't know anyone that's hyped up for this game. People will pass this over for black ops.

Thanks everyone for the feedback.  I played the Battlefield: Badcompany 2 beta when it came out and didn't really get in to it too much.  It wasn't bad just not to my liking I suppose.  Maybe with the closer quarters MOH will be different for me.  Anyways, is there a way to get a beta code without pre-ordering it?  Thanks once again.



Its Feels like A mix Of BC2 & MW2. never Liked BC2 much But loving this so far, my only problems So far, the Lag when you die and No kill cam.



Atto Suggests...:

Book - Malazan Book of the Fallen series 

Game - Metro Last Light

TV - Deadwood

Music - Forest Swords 

I haven't played it, but is it really good or is it as bad as Modern Warfare 2? 



From what i've seen of gameplay it looks better then MW2.
