Guys,

I'm trying to order it from Amazon but it doesn't have the "Release-day delivery".. WTF?!

What do I do? I mainly want to order it from there for the $20 credit they give..

I bet the #1 reason why MoH runs better than BC2 is that MoH doesn't have all the destructible environments and puts less stress on your system overall.

It's sad that one has to use the min details to be competitive. Why would you want all that extra fog/smoke/snow/sand blocking your view if multiplayer if the all players aren't forced to have it?

How did this game get worse reviews than MW2? The single player is great if you ask me. I wish danger close had made the multiplayer as well. The guns just have this awesome sense of weight, and the sound is ridiculously awesome. No idea how single player for this game got bad ratings. I love it.

I will amend this to say that the MP side of the game is horrendously bad.

What is the deal with getting 1 and sometimes 2 hit sounds and you are dead within a second, yet when you are shooting someone it can take several shots/seconds for them to die? 90% of the time all I hear is THUD, dead, even from the same guns I use. It's not that I'm bad as you are probably thinking, I usually have 2:1 KD or better.

This must be some sort of lag that all servers have? It just doesn't feel right. I'm guessing the people I kill experience the same thing though.

It's the game's god awful hit prediction system. If you play cod2 you will notice this same phenomenon quite often. The difference is that cod2 is 5 years old, and you hardly notice this problem in cod4. MoH is brand new and the hit prediction is worse than a 5 year old game.

I was experiencing the same thing until I upgraded my Video Card. I haven't played a first person shooter since my counterstrike days 8 years ago and this was the first game I bought for my new PC build. I was borrowing my brothers ATI 2600xt till video card prices dropped this week and I got a Nvidia GTX 470... once I installed the new video card my ratio went from 3kills/7 deaths to 4kills/1 death... I would still hear 2 thuds when getting shot at but I still survive and by then I moved out of harms way and live to shoot back (Unless someone gets a direct sniper shot or head shot on me)... :awe:

My hd5870 allows me to know that it's just the game's awful hit detection.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's not my SLI 480s causing it either =p

When you build up your kill chain you are allowed for special support attacks or defense. If you press the "5" button you call support attacks such as mortars or rockets or air support... when you press the "6" button you call a UAV, extra ammon for yourself for your teamates, extra armor or kevlar for yourself and teamates... I think it's the extra armor/kevelar your enemies get sometimes that makes your enemies take more hits.... that is how I survive most of the time... anyhow I agree with most people here that this game is poorly made... going to go to my garage and look for my old counter-strike CD until the new MW game comes out...

Also I deserved to get fragged by people with gaming rigs with SLI 480s and 5870s and cross fire cards and overclocked rigs... those extra FPS make a huge difference now a days - learned from my recent video card upgrades.... makes me miss the counterstrike days...

I dunno... When I play the game I feel hardcore gunning down the Taliban... then I feel like a wuss when you need your teamates help to get over the walls...:\

Switch to MP and you won't feel like a wuss. You'll feel like tearing your own dick off and using it to choke yourself to death. Worst game ever. Period.

Eh...I feel like I wasted a good $60 on this game that probably would have been used towards a future SSD for my build... :thumbsdown:

More DLC... Hot Zone Coming

by Eduardo Vasconellos, October 28, 2010

EA unveiled our new downloadable content pack for Medal of Honor, and there’s loads of great things coming. New maps, new modes, new gameplay styles, and new ways to have fun online, all coming to you November 2, 2010. Read all the details below!



EA today announced that the hit first-person shooter Medal of Honor will further expand its intense multiplayer experience with the release of an all-new multiplayer mode on November 2, 2010. The new mode called Hot Zone features “King of the Hill” gameplay where teams fight over a designated location on a map; the team who holds their position longest prevails. This adrenaline-fueled mode is playable across two all-new maps (Hindukush Pass and Korengal Outpost) as well as redesigned versions of the popular Shahikot Valley and Helmand Valley multiplayer maps. Hot Zone will be available via Xbox LIVE Marketplace for 800 MS points, on PlayStation Network for $9.99USD and on PC exclusively via the EA Store for $9.99USD.

In addition to Hot Zone, EA will also release Clean Sweep on Nov 2 via Xbox LIVE, PSN and PC for free. Clean Sweep is an elimination mode where players will rely on their own skill and teammates’ expertise to prove victorious. This free mode will also feature two all-new maps (Bagram Hangar and Khyber Caves) as well as redesigned versions of the popular Diwagal Camp and Kabul City Ruins maps.
