PC Patch #2 released:

by Matt Pruitt, November 2, 2010

A brand new Medal of Honor multiplayer PC patch has been released. You can obtain the update through the auto updater when the game loads or if you prefer, an offline updater. All server providers have the update file, so you may download from your local server provider's website. STEAM will be releasing the update also.

Server providers will begin updating servers from the time of this post and all servers will be updated by the same time tomorrow. Contact your server provider if you have any server update questions about their update schedule.

The new update prepares the game for Clean Sweep and Hot Zone downloadable content. It also includes the following fixes:

A buddy of mine picked this up over the weekend from Target. Gave him a call today to see what his impression of the game was because I was thinking about picking it up. He told me he has had nothing but problems playing the game.

When he tries to load up single player and start to configure his guy he gets kicked out of the game back to the desktop. From what he was telling me a lot(?) of people have been reporting similar problems but EA hasn't confirmed anything.

He mentioned a few things he has tried but I don't remember them now. He is just pissed because he spent $60 on the game that he hasn't played 5 minutes of. He is running Win XP SP3 with all of the updates. He read me off the listed specs on the bottom of the box and he meets all of those with ease.

Did anyone else here have problems running the game from the get go? Any specifics you want me to ask him?

Does this game deliberately make your bullets miss all the time? I mean, are they going for a “realism” thing whereby bullets don’t always go where you aim? Yes it’s realistic (well for an AK on fully automatic, definitely not realistic for an MP5) but it’s certainly not fun for a game. Especially when a certain level of accuracy has been established in FPSers over the last decade or so.
