Medal of Honor Beta: An Underwhelming Experience. We've Rolled these DICE before

Irish Gaming Site TheGamingLiberty.com write:

"One can’t help but to be somewhat underwhelmed by what’s on display in this beta. As it is, MOH’s multiplayer is a flawed experience, dare I say it, an average shooter we’ve already seen dozens of times before, marred by fundamental gameplay imperfections and bugs, all of which suck away at the game’s actual strong points. But, there’s something else amiss. It just doesn’t feel right. It has more in common with mediocre than it is has with anything else."

I have to agree... After playing the beta for a hour I was left with the feeling that I've done this all before. The graphics are OK, sound is good and the gameplay is typical COD. It even has the lag of COD... I'm hoping the single player is a lot better than the multiplayer currently is.

RememberThe3575053d ago

I was really planning on buying this game until I played the beta. I truly hope they make some major changes to the online before launch because right now only the single player is appealing.

Blacktric5053d ago

Gonna buy it for single player only. Don't care about its multiplayer part too much. Since it's a Medal Of Honor game, the story should be what matters most. If I'd want to play multiplayer I'd play Bad Company 2 which is complete, which is also made by DICE and which is awesome.

Cryptech5053d ago

Ya I want to play the campaign for sure, but the only way I pick this up is up to 4 player coop through the campaign. I will never touch the competitive side after playing the beta.

Jaces5053d ago

I'll most likely end up waiting for a price drop, have too many other games on my list and this isn't exactly at the top. The single player is certainly one of the appealing points that caught my eye, was never much for online.

Ive posted the same comment on almost article about MOH. You could save yourself money and get Bad company 2 if you want the same experience.
The lagg in COD - mainly just MW2, people with a 3 bar against people with a 4 bar are at a great disadvantage.
I dont understand why they didnt evolve the engine..
Seriosuly WTF.
I cannot buy this game due to that face, its DICE being as lazy as possible.
Im gonna stick with black ops, which will have some 4 player co-op also.
Treyarch FTW

Graphics have horrible jaggies all over the place

I think SINGLE PLAYER will be the best part of this shooter

Online is BC all over again with no cars and small levels.

But again wow the game has some HORRIBLE JAGGIES, DICE is

horrible at AA or something because wow it looks trash.

MW2 looks better then any of these shooters and that alone

puts them over the top.

ive played this on the PS3 beta, and it seems ok, for all of the people who havent played this one go on the PS3 beta. its decent, its a good beta,nothing special though ok, back on my PS3.

olLANDSHARKlo5053d ago

Uh that's what everyone is talking about is the ps3 beta, xbox live is working on it so it run's right, unlike psn. These are the type of betas psn is gonna get for the playstation plus, their gonna rip people off. The should take the $50 for a year and update the structure of psn.

Toenado5053d ago

what system the beta is on is irrelevant. The majority of complaints focus on the how similar it is to BC2.

Remembering Medal Of Honor: The Forgotten Master Of WW2 Games

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."

banger8810d ago

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.

FPS_D3TH8d ago

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

PrecursorOrb8d ago (Edited 8d ago )

I wish they’d remake warfighter

Strictly for the campaign

The_Hooligan8d ago

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.

Medal of Honor 2010 was a good start for a modern reboot. The campaign was fantastic. Multiplayer wasn't great but that's DICE's fault. I'd love if they went back to that game and gave it a proper sequel.

SlothLordPootus505d ago

I actually really liked the multiplayer in MoH 2010. Battlefield gunplay on small maps. I would love to see a Rising sun remake, the opening scene would be amazing to see.

SonyStyled505d ago

I enjoyed the multiplayer of MoH 2010. It felt like battlefield 3 in a way. The multiplayer in Warfighter was also pretty good but the campaigns single player story was not appealing with the whole family cutscene thing. Gameplay was fun though. MoH to me is the PS1/2 titles and I don’t expect to see a WW2 MoH after the last Call of Duty’s

Levii_92505d ago

PS1 MOH 1999 and 2000 (Underground) and Allied Assault PC is my childhood.. it's still soo good and it holds up. Not to mention Michael Giacchino's soundtrack is one of the best video game soundtracks ever made. Even if you weren't born in early to mid 90's go listen to the main theme of Allied Assault and you will be overloaded from nostalgia.

I miss this franchise a lot.

Iceball2000505d ago

I’ve always thought that MOH and Battlefield should be separate…

Have MOH as the full fledged single player with an amazing store and whatnot. And a basic multiplayer just to have multiplayer. Sorta like how the MOH reboot was.

And then have BF as the full fledged multiplayer with all effort put into that and ditch the single player. Maybe add Commander back in.

Only in a perfect world.

HeliosHex505d ago (Edited 505d ago )

Oh man medal of honor on pc was awesome back in the day. Multi-player was fun. Joined my first clan on medal of honor. Definitely deserves a comeback. But needs to be on the same level or surpass COD. Since it came out before that ip in 1999 to avoid embarrassment.

FGHFGHFGH505d ago

The guys who did Allied assault are the one who created call of duty. They're back at EA, Vince something

MadLad505d ago

I'll be the weird guy in the room and say I actually loved Warfighter. I thought the squad mechanics made it stand out a bit and thought the shooting felt good. Put a lot of time into the multiplayer.
