You missed out a word of the first paragraph, at the top of page 2. It should read:

I take back what I said in the other thread, the spawning enemies are starting to get on my nerves a bit. I don't like it on medium because it feels far too easy, hard mode however feels pretty realistic. Unfortunately that means I die a lot, combined with the poor save system, it means trying to get to a well defended objective can become infuriatingly difficult sometimes. I'm currently on the second level, after about a million tries I managed to destroy the radio tower, but as I was making my way to the actual radio to destroy it, I died. Never mind, I thought, since I'd just reached a checkpoint, but behold, as I dropped back in, the area I had just cleared had been instantly respawned, meaning I had to fight my way to the radio tower again, and then fight from there to the radio. Suffice to say I got pissed off and turned the game off.
I don't mind that it's hard, but the checkpoint system is really getting on my tits.
I miss AA... Maybe in-game the lack of it isn't so noticeable but I don't really like the look of the screenshots. From my point of view, the worst thing a game can have is jagged edges.
However, those textures are looking really nice :)
i am just finishing the game and tbh all the comments in the review are fair, however there is no mention of multiplayer in the review at all!
medal of honor has always been about the multiplay - thats why this has been so anticipated by the community coz there hasnt been a decent moh game since allied assault.
the multiplay is not ready for this game! there is no stand alone server as yet - they hope it will be with first patch in a couple of weeks.
shame on ea for once again releasing a part finished game, and im afraid to say shame on bit-tech for not highlighting the largest drawback for this game - the drawback that if people know about chances are they wont part with their hard earned till ea pull their fingers out!

only 16ppl/server in multiplayer? in this day and age when you can have 64 in BF2142/CSS? pft.
I can see why you'd only want 16 in something like WIC, it'll get too crowded otherwise, but for an FPS? come on. (I heard they were going to up it to 24 somewhere, but still thats piss-poor.
The series in general has one hit (MOHAA) and many flubs (MOHBT, MOHSH, MOHPA) it's dubious that this is going to be the next big thing in WW2 fps's
Demo was alright. I definetly wouldn't consider it a "next gen" type of game. With games coming out with incredible eye candy like Bioshock or Crysis, and games promising great multiplayer like COD4, I don't think it will be a big hit.
I liked the feel of the demo, but I didn't like how I kept leaning when I pressed A or D, and how I couldn't move when looking down the sights. If it let me do those it would blow my love for CoD out of the water (or at least hurt the deep-rooted love for Call of duty)
At the start of the review I saw the price, I thought hmm £25 might be worth the 3/4 hours of SP... but then I started reading and didnt really see anything new - why dont games cost a little more and look a little less 'churned out'? I've done some amateur level design in HL1/2 engines and by the looks of it the devs didnt read 'mapping for dumbies' as alot of downward/off facing surfaces have lost thier texture and turned jet black(just look at the texture shots) which makes me think the levels were rushed and not lit/tested properly...

Thanks Joe, I'll mess with it later tonight. I didn't take a look at the time.
Just played the game only 6 missions :( i played it out in 4 hours i whas happy that 1 mission whas in my own city Nijmegen / Market Garden. i can only say graphics are good i love the special weapon upgrades but i hate that the missions are short and not much payed attention to the missions just onlt 6!.

Comments 1 to 25 of 36
Dont mind though, i am a single player ;)
what graphics card are you using to play and what FPS are you getting?
will a 8800GTS 320MB work with the game everything highest, at 1680x1050?

I now wish I got a 6800 GT instead of my X800 XL!

mini rant over, pls carry on.....
amen
Doesn't run very well, not well enough to warrant a purchase.

Holy time machine Batman! MoH has been around quite a bit longer than CoD... if anything, CoD built it's foundation on what MoH had done.

I feel sometimes it looks worse than Doom3 (Maybe due to less using bump?)
