NowGamer gets to grips with the Medal of Honor closed multiplayer beta. Full detailed coverage here.
Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."
They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.
Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid
I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.
Today Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson provided a look into his ideas for the use of generative AI in the company's development processes.
I wonder what the next buzz word they'll slap in front of AI to make it sound exciting next? "Generative" as if it's creating its own content. Lol.
i have a better idea .. why the whole exec team doesn't get replaced by chat bots ?
Though i agree the ai thing is already in other forms of media there have been ai translations/scripts/voice over and even full ai commercials aired on tv. Ubisoft has created a ai game creator story/vo/music except the building of the game
The new unreal engine has auto terrain creation tools
In the world of greed in which it is winning without any major blow back ai is our future.
everyone want's biden dead on the mic or a criminal instead of a woman and now we are getting ai everything because no one will stop watching/playing ai created media.
Exactly EA are just pure evil. When they are beating Bank of America to be voted the worst company to work for that’s saying a lot
Good thing I don’t buy their games day one and wait for deep deep sale years after launch (the select few games I am actually interested in)
Gaming is making so much money yet the greed of these companies is never ending
CEO’s and people on board making millions yet cutting jobs to those who are actually making the products
EA is still a shady shitty company even with or without the help of Skynet. All they will use AI for is new ways to milk loot boxes and come up with the same sports title with a different year on the label. They are one company I truly do hate with a passion. They single handedly ruined some great franchise with their death touch. ME, Dead Space, Alice Returns, Dante's Inferno.
All that is already been happening

EA layoffs followed by 'Generative AI to Drive Monetization'
I knew it. Wonder what AI salary looks like? Nothing.
I having a feeling that most of the layoffs in the industry are based on the idea that AI will do the same job for less.
Very likely, yes.
Made worse by the fact that the execs aren't changing their compensations.
My deepest fear at this point is that we are now in the capitalism endgame.
At this point, we really should just burn AI to the ground. Executives cannot be trusted to do the right thing.
How are those people expected to support families if everything gets automated?
And take away creativity, and people's jobs as we've been seeing. Got it.
No thanks. I want my games created by people, not AI.
Exactly. If or when games start becoming more AI than people, im done with gaming. AI and companies like EA can suck donkey d***k.
Though i agree remember this is no ps3/360 era were we got up to 3 games in one generation from on developer like gears/halo/bioware/sony/ms
The people today are pro esg/sweet baby for the most part AAA gaming is imploding right now.
We should be stepping back re evaluate everything as a whole this year xmen 97 written/directed by a woman that is nuts and its also being made by a group reshaping bodies to be less sexual like wtf. A dam famous cartoon from the 90's is being rebuilt with millions spent to be worse in everyway.
Gaming/movies/tv shows made today are worse than what we had 7years ago ai won't change this but that ai is also being made by these groups so either way we are screwed.

Don't be of afraid of women. Sexy characters in games and movies still exist. Got my Stellar Blade on preorder!!! Everything all the time doesn't need to be sexual...that's stupid, childish and dull.
EA doesn't want to lose their title of worst gaming company ever, always trying their best to remain the champs!
What's sad is that they have so much potential to be a decent publisher.

Remember when EA used to be awesome? It's all over with now. Unpolished, if not out-right broken games these days. Endless monetization and gambling in their sports games, and let's not forget wasting hours of your life trying to unlock characters or equipment using "surprise boxes!"
Gareth, Justin, and JoeyZ look at Layoff news for EA and Sony and reasons behind the downturn in the industry and more.
Waiting on the release for the 360 to try this out for myself. If anything, I hope this turns into a CoD killer.
deleted it after 15 mins
shitty COD wannabe
this was one of the best shooters i ever played
over this beta. It seemed that most of them are just MW2 junkies but here is what I experienced with the beta.
The beta is bad because it freezes my PS3, its not working properly and I hope the devs patch it.
Second the beta (when you can play it) its a mix of COD4 and BBC2. It play more like BBC2 at a faster pace because you still need to take a lot of cover and you need to work as a team, even when it looks like this is a lone wolf game. Its incredible fun and the control is just pertect.
Thirs, there are some people whining about the game's graphics. Let me tell you that the game at least has better graphics than MW2 and there are an incredible amounts of things in the background. It doesnt look as aliased as BBC2 and at least it doesnt have screen tearing.
The sounds are as amazing as BBC2 and recreates perfectly the sounds of being in a real war.
The final game must need work but this is a beta and they are going in the rigth direction. People seems to complain for everything. If its like KZ2 they complain because its not like MW2. If its like MW2 then they complain because its a copy. Its a shame that the young "gamers" has changed my favorite hobby into a POPULARYTY contest. I enjoy gaming, enjoy FPS and I am enjoying this beta. My money is with MOH on Oct. 12!!!
PEACE AND GAMING!!
TO THE PHANTOM DISAGREES... Feel free to tell me why you disagree. Did you think it sucks? Then MW2 must suck too... Did you find its graphics bad? Then why you believe MW 2 looked incredible? Feel free to post your opinion and just dont hide behind the disagree button.
This game has a long way to go. Yes, the beta seems very underwhelming right now; the way it freezes your ps3 randomly, how it stops for 1-2 seconds after you die, lag problems and all sorts of weird issues the game suffers from. But I know that this game will look/play great when its finally done. People just need to remember that its a beta, and it isnt the finished product. Hopefully, a few months down the line when the game comes out and we play the multiplayer we'll remember this beta and laugh... i hope.
