I was reading through the MOH Beta threads and they want to test group/friend functionality since they can't do it internally. I am on shift till Sunday, but If I see you guys online over the holiday lets try creating a squad and kicking somebody's A$$! I already put my GTP tag on.

Masi, Blitz you guys get a Beta Code yet?
 
Got a beta key from EB Games yesterday when I went to trade in some old PS2 games and buy GoW III and GTA IV. Only played for about half hour so far. To sum it up it's kind of like BC2 but not as good and with killstreaks. The guns seem to take almost a whole magazine to kill someone. Pretty typical unlock system whereby as you play with a class you unlock things like extended mags, scopes and new weapons. I've only played TDM, gonna try to objective based game later and see how it is.

EDIT

Had some more play time last night and yeah I gotta agree with Cale, the objective based mode is so much more fun than TDM. Sure it's your basic attack/defend game mode but the terrain layout is good and the way it changes as you get closer to the enemy stronghold makes it interesting too. I've mainly been using the infantry class. So far I've unlocked the extra mag, red dot sight and the PKM/M249 LMGs.

I like the way the "killstreak" rewards work. They're called scorechain rewards. Basically everything that you do that earns you points such as normal kills, headshots, kill assists, planting bombs, securing areas, revenge kills etc all go towards your scorechain. At a certain amount of points you get scorechain rewards such as UAVs, mortar strikes and air strikes. It's a great concept that works very well so you can still earn streak rewards without having to camp in a room with a claymore by the door like some other fps games.

All in all it is a pretty solid FPS but right now I'm not sure that it brings anything new to the genre. For me the overall quality of the single player mode would determine if I was to buy it or not.

I'M SO PISSED TIGHT NOW UUUUGGGGGHHHHH.

I had a 1900pt game going, got d/c'ed and none of it counted. I would have unlocked shot gun slugs and hollow point ammo! Also the sniper sway is gay.
 
Also the sniper sway is gay.

Unless you can prove that sniper sway is indeed homosexual and would prefer intimate relationships with sniper sway of the same gender you will not use it as a descriptive term.

Simply put it's not acceptable here at GT Planet, and as such please do not use it as a term of insult or abuse (in any context) again.

Sniper sway is really happy. :yuck:

I know that was meant to explain some of the boards rules but I just laughed so hard when I read that. I just imagined a lawyer sitting down and stating to the prosecutor, if you cannot prove that the sniper sway of my client is indeed homosexual then please do not address his sniper way in this manner.

Then it achieved its aim 100%

AUP enforcement with a laugh - that way everyone is happy

👍


And on-topic - I have finally got my beta code (for no other reason than I have been too lazy to sort it out before now) and should get a chance to give this a go tonight.

I played a few rounds with Cale on Monday. Game is promising just hard to say how it "really" will be since it is only a Beta. I have been only playing assault, Sniper seems a bit hard since the map is so small and everyone "knows" where to look?
 
I got to play the beta for about 20 minutes at a mates house last night and I just don't like the feel of the game engine, its the same for BFBC2. There is just a heavy type feeling to the player when moving and all, I really like the way COD feels with how fast and responsive it is, I just don't like all the bull that they packed into MW2, it ruined the game. I'm not too sure about MOH yet, I will go ahead and add it to my Q on gamefly to play it for a few weeks to give it a chance when it comes out, I might end up adapting to the heavy feeling and it might not bother me so bad after playing it a few weeks.

I like killstreak where you can get an offensive/defensive weapon by earning it in a round. Unfortunately I have not got to use it since I get killed and keep losing it.
 
Great idea. 👍 Then we could tell you to sod off. 💡

Hee hee. You guys DO have a sense of humour after all! Interesting though how you have a go at me for being cheeky, and you reply to me by telling me to sod off. Super. Sod off yersel!
 
I'm hoping for a good single player, but I'm guessing it will be the typical crappy storyline with about 8 hours of gameplay that most FPS games seem to have these days.👎
 

You are more and more starting to sound like those US government officials who try to cover up crashed UFO's etc. But anyway, I get the hint. I won't annoy any of you again because I know you have the power to kick me out of GTPlanet and I would like to stay. Sorry guys. I promise to be a good boy from now on. Let's end it now.
Now, back to the new MOH.

I do have high hopes for this game. Every one after Frontline on the PS2 has been poor to say the least. EA's usual high production values coupled with Dice's experience in military FPS games should make it something to challenge the new CoD:Black Ops. MW2 won't even stand a chance: the new MOH will eat it for breakfast.

Apparently I'm in the beta for this aswell, I was looking in the PS store and I downloaded it. I like it so far, sans the glitches and annoyances.

I've already made it to Level 7 on the Sniper class, 6 on the rifle and I already loathe the Spec ops class :p

The freezing when you die and the sights being off centered are the most annoying glitches so far, with the classes not saving and settings reseting a close second.

i am also in the medal of honor beta but the game got me so mad.... i played one round where i got probably a 15 or higher kill streak.. i was able to call in a missile strike and that was so awesome and that missile alone i got probably 4 kills at the same time (the enemy was huddled together in an alley) it was really crazy... and close to the end of the round the screen all of a sudden changed to the title screen. and i lost all the points that i could have received. so all in all its a pretty good game however i like BFBC2 better. i also played the beta for BFBC2 and it did not have as much bugs and glitches as MOH. both are good games in there own thing. the only major bug that got me mad was the exiting to the title which it did on me 3 times. however its a beta so oh well. i still had my fun =)
 
That explains it, then, I own and play BF1943 all the time, if they could make MoH more like that as far as balance and bugs go, I'd be more excited.

I'm still thinking about preordering it though, if just for the remastered version of Frontline, one of my all time favorites.

so you dont own a ps3? cuz i have an extra beta key from my brother that i could let you use that is for the psn.
 
No PS3, only reason I got the 360 is because I got a brand new one with a 250gb hd and wireless controllers for 150 bucks. Eventually I will get a PS3, when I can afford it.
