That plot involves infiltration behind enemy lines, direct combat with the enemy, and political instability with a Washington-based general and an on-site commander. Like its competitor Modern Warfare, Medal of Honor puts players into the game as different types of military specialists-DEVGRU (formerly known as SEAL Team 6 or ST6 and still commonly called that), Delta Force, Army Ranger and Apache Gunner-each with intertwining stories surrounding a larger plot. Sadly, however, most of the game doesn’t portray that. Instead, Medal of Honor pays homage to the men and women in today’s military, who fight on the front lines and often give their lives in the process.
It’s no simulation, and EA makes no claims for the legitimacy of the accuracy of the game’s portrayal of events surrounding the actual, real-life battles taking place today. As in previous games in the franchise, the scenes and battles are all similar to actual battles that have taken place, though liberties were, of course, taken because this war is current. Titled simply Medal of Honor, this game takes place today in war-torn Afghanistan.
While CoD‘s latest adventure went over the top to produce a weak single-player campaign with a strong and compelling multiplayer experience, MoH is completely the opposite: stronger in the single-player mode than in multiplayer. Now, EA’s reboot of its beloved franchise is set among battles from our own time.
The battles shown to gamers around the world often came directly from the experiences of real veterans who fought in those battles, and while we can never endure what they did, Electronic Arts brought those experiences home to gamers.īut as games have evolved and the World War II genre has faded, so has the franchise, surpassed by Call of Duty and the recent and most popular CoD series, Modern Warfare. It gave us some of the best World War II games and has been referred to as historical in many ways. Medal of Honor is the franchise that brought us the first great storming of Normandy beaches in a PC game. Certain missions only begin when players cross an imaginary line or stand in the correct spot.
