Medal of Honor Beta

I got a Beta invite for the multiplayer of this game coming out in October. It's supposed to be a mix of BFBC2 and MW2. I will post my thoughts when I get a few games in.

So a mix between something decent and something that sucks.

The few games I have played today make it more BF than MW2 so it does have it's own thing. The combat is very very very team oriented. You don't coordinate, you fail. This means using Sniper to call in mortar and pick off targets as you approach.

One thing that is great is the sound. Explosions sound amazing, ricochets, bullets wisping by, have great audio.

The graphics are great, the explosions from mortars or even 40mm grenades look realistic, it's not just some big fireball, if you hit dirt it sends dirt flying everywhere. This goes for destroying structures, the don't disappear they shatter and fly along with the any other debris in the area.

I'll play more and post more as it goes on. My favorite part is the necessity of coordinated attacks. Go sign up for it at the site and see if you get an invite.

All of what you described sounds like BFBC2... I still want to know what's different about it.

No, it feels different. The BF elements are there but it has a different feeling. I also like the limited hud. They also have lot's of orders being screamed, I still don't know what triggers them. Occasionally I'll hear a "Cover that guy" or "He's out int he open". I don't know if this is random or what but it's constant, which is realistic. Much like BF the weapons feel week, unless you get a headshot. Take a few M21 rounds on a guy before he goes down, which is normal for BF stuff.
