    Yo dudes,
    Just been looking at the aforementioned game and it looks really good. WOR thinks its awesome. Anyone got any thoughts on it ?
    I know BlackOps is less than a month away and it will probably take over but MOH looks really good aswell.
    Interested in your views.

    Looks good but lacks the same playability of COD.

    Is this a COD board?

    Explain please ?

    I did not play Battlefield Bad company at all and I have heard that its not really played anymore, yet MW2 is never out of my machine for long !
    And Battlefield developed the online element.
    I played MOH before COD years ago so I am intrigued to know if this new game is any use.

    Out of interest, what are you basing this on?

    I've seen some clips of it, and it looks very nice. I'm strongly thinking of getting this as it seems to blend BFBC2's team play and MW2 faster pace quite well. Plus I've a voucher for hmv online that I can use. I wouldn't use for BOps as it'd mean getting that after launch day. :eek:

    Looks good but I'm not into long range battles. I prefer the close combat stuff. It does look good though. I subbed that channel aswell, I like yer mans style.
    I don't like the HUD or the icons over players, I found it hard to tell which ones were the bad guys.
    Think I'll pass and wait for BlackOps. :D

    I preordered it with Play who posted it today and I'll probably get it the week black ops is released. :eek:
    It is getting mixed reviews. Tbh I can see myself playing MW2 MP for a long time after even black ops comes out.

    Really? Maybe if all the dicks and their noob tubes move on to BOps I might do the same, but certainly not if it stays the way it's been in the past while.

    Yeah, for all the hate thrown at MW2 and complaints over spawn trapping, noobtubes, MLC, camping etc I still think it's head and shoulders above the competition. I bought COD4/WOW after MW2 but don't play them online at all. Don't get me wrong there's times it drives me demented but still think it's a great game.

    I completely agree. It's just that the dicks seem to be out in force recently. Maybe they know there's only so much time left so are really getting the most out of their tubes before they lose them in BOps. :rolleyes::D

    I equate MW2 to one of my exes, she drove me demented, got jealous when i wanted to do something else rather than be with her, filled me with a murderous rage on an almost daily basis but at the end of it all she could still make my balls tingle when something went right.

    Update on Medal Of Honor. "Beards and Guns How can it fail?" I beleive that was my quote. Well it CAN fail and fail hard. The Single player is great. I'm playing it instead of Multiplayer. The Beta was fun but the full MP is nothing but camping snipers. With no killcam it's impossible to figure out where they're camping at. I'll try some more but it's not looking too good.

    That'd suit WOR play style. i.e. Sit ...ADS... wait... shoot...Moan about teammates not taking advantage of your awesomeness...:rolleyes:

    Do yourself a favour and ignore WOR, he is everything that is wrong with MW2 and he'll ruin MOH aswell.

    If it's no good, you can always trade it in when BO comes out,it'd be like renting it for €20?? (maybe less) for a month off where ever you get it. Win Win if you ask me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,778 ✭✭✭Sod'o swords


    I played the beta for the few days it was out.

    Aft first i was all wow, as with any new game. Then I went to 'meh' then as i played more, i really enjoyed it. There's very little things in it to annoy you really, the explosive damage is tiny so grenade launchers and rockets are fine.

    The thing i found slightly annoying was the lag at times, but for a new game it was better than most!

    Over all, I will buy it, not at launch but after time and, for pc! :eek:

    Thats true alright about WOR. From what i've seen there is a lot of long range sniping going on and not much rushing action so I'll probably wait and see.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    I was watching a WoR video the other day, he was playing a Dominatino game on Estate and standing BESIDe the B flag, actually passed the radius where he was able to cap it as the progress bar starting moving up, and he moved and started sniping a guy, ffs he doesnt even play the objective when its easy to cap flags.

    FYI, ChrisTrout just tweeted this. Take it whatever way you want but thats 2 "do not buys" I've seen.
    To anyone who is thinking of purchasing MoH take it from Trout. DO NOT, if you get mad at MW2 you'll get aids from this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,009 ✭✭✭Shammy


    There will be people who will say its crap , but its not cod its not supposed to be cod, it will be different , it depends on what your expecting cove.

    Looking forward to the tier challenges.

    Gamespot are usually good with their reviews , not mindblowing but not shabby either ;)

    I wouldn't listen to Trout at all. He's a cocky arrogant ego tool.

    Woody on the other hand is someone I do like, and have trusted his reviews before.

    Can probably be summed up by: "if you buy 5-6 or more games a year, then yes. If you buy 1-2-3, then no."

    Cheers Shawpower, Thats my mind made up, was 50/50 about getting MOH to keep me going till BO, but I think I'll stick with MW2 till November 9TH.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,975 ✭✭✭iMuse


    €42 delivered from gamestop.ie has me tempted to get it but dont think i will cause ill never touch it after black ops, might get fallout instead and have the KZ3 beta aswell


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,945 ✭✭✭✭Headshot

    Eh I don't know about this. Seems very bland. I was expecting a visual force but was disappointed. Also when he reviews and states: "brings nothing new to the genre", wtf? Isn't the games industry supposed to be competitive? Seems like the makers went so far and said "grand, that'll do.", seems too conservative with the way Call of Duty has its impact.

    How hard is it to kill someone Shammy? Is it the same as BF: BC2? Having to empty half a clip into someone to kill them?
