Nothing Is More Authentic Than Medal of Honor

oh, golly gee, the graphics in the single player look soooo much better than the multiplayer beta....not.

All we've seen of the single-player so far (afaik) is the sniper segement and the Apache segement. The sniper video looked good but could easily be deceiving. The Apache-on-rails gameplay  on the other hand was atrocious. You can't make videos bragging about your authenticity and then make something like that.  edit: oh and that video where you have to run up and place red smoke on an MG nest because you don't have a laser designator, a 203 with smoke rounds or any common sense. But at least you have a SAW with no recoil. "

Because nothing is more realistic than the Taliban. Wait, they aren't in the game? You named them what? Opposing Forces? Really?

Its so authentic. You have to know to shoot the shoots and don't shoot the no-shoots. That shit gets RAW.

nothing is more authentic

LMAO, I love the fucked voices and EA bullshit....Yeah man that shit is real, people shoot at people in fatigues, that is authentic..And GTA IV was an authentic rush hour traffic game...

I would have lost my shit if the announcer in the end also had the same distorted voice.

" Maybe it's because I'm Canadian but I don't get the appeal. Doesn't real war suck...like a lot. Can't it fuck you up mentally? Why would I want my games to do that authentically when they can do stupid crazy shit like use an infinite parachute instead? "

For a lot of people, they've been brainwashed since their childhood to believe that war automatically equates to glory. It's part of the ongoing militarisation of society. It's part of the same reason it's deemed unacceptable to criticise military actions no matter how blatantly criminal they may be. And the only reason the military is afforded such a position is simply because it is the ultimate act of submission to the state and government agendas in most countries. The military is the ultimate model of society they wish to create, a subservient, non-critical one, with people who are willing to fight to the death for elite interests. It's not about sacrifice for the greater good, it's about doing as you're told. Look how vehemently whistleblowers and critical people inside the military are treated, they get reduced to third class citizens and have many of their rights stripped away.

what was the  budget for this game? I feel like it was exorbitantly large

Hey, let's have these guys sit around in someone's tool shed instead of some comfy studio because that really brings out the war-ness of their pixelated eyes.

is that chris sabat narrating?  

These are special force members, where in the hell do they have the time to comment on a video game?

I've already got my pre-order in, but honestly, I'm not interested in any game that simulates a real military op.

You've got to feel sorry for the FPS being released between freakin Halo and Call of Duty. Either you bought Halo or you're waiting for Black Ops, straight up. This game is going to be a very, very expensive blip on the radar in between the real FPS juggernauts.

yeah..... okay. 

I can see American gun nuts going crazy for this. Us Europeans? Nah, we'll pass.

KID ROCK CONFIRMED FOR MEDAL OF HONOR.

Approximately 1 billion dollars. Fact. "

Uhh... Okay. Game of the year then I guess?

I'm sorry did at one point one of them say "I tell them a scenario and within 30 minutes I get to see the results"  
 
Yeah, because A.I scripting, level design and various other components take half an hour.  
 
What complete unadulterated marketing rubbish.

That video was hillarious.

Anyone else wondering how they got those super top secret operatives to consult for them? Just one phone call to Delta Force HQ, or months of paperwork? I don't know, but it seems unlikely to me, that just some random entertainment company can get couple of these bad boys on camera and to consult for them. Just because EA wants to have an authentic game. Anyone else finds this strange or unlikely, or am I just too suspicious?

Honestly, who gives a damn if it's real or not. It's all marketing BS to sell us their game. 
 
I don't think anyone actually believes this game will be UBER REAL and so much better than other war themed FP shooters...

"Just something to keep in mind about the smoke placement.  A shot from an M203 can give away your position.  If they were needed to be stealthy and had a good escape, then placing it by hand is their best option.  I'm not trying to defend the gameplay, I haven't played the singleplayer to be able to say.  I just wanted to point out that there are reasons and situations that can require different tactics. "

This game comes out next effin Tuesday?! All I've seen of it is a tepid Quick Look and a Linkin Park music video.

Nothing is more original than Kid Rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe the low res on those face textures. Come on guys!

anyone else sick of hearing "Tier 1 Operatives" ?

The more they try to convince me that the game is authentic, the less I believe it is.
