Jesus, EA better pull their finger out asap or the review scores will drop due to these missing features. Lazy, lying EA annoy:

I'll download the demo at some point but I'll now wait until the 1st patch is released before I buy the game....

[DAS REICH] Blitz 08-19-2007 05:10 PM

Didn't the head of EA or something like that recently criticize the gaming industry for making sub-par games knowing people will buy them anyway?

geRV 08-21-2007 05:15 PM

That demo was actually suprisingly good, the movement feels a little strange but you soon get used to it.

rudedog 08-23-2007 06:55 AM

Here is my little quick and dirty write up

WOW.

Very impressed and I don't care for single player sides of games . I will say, out of the 3 major issues we had at the MP summit (where I did play a level or two of SP), 2 out of the 3 issues have been corrected - Mouse lag and FPS have been fixed. Dedicated server is still to be seen, once the game ships.

My current rig taken from my Nvnews.net sig:
Main Box:Intel X6800|EVGA 680i SLI|2GB(1GBx2)corsair XMS2 1066|Evga 8800GTX Ultra SC - 162.18|150Gig Raptor SATA|4x WD 250Gb SATA|2x Lite-on 1673S DVDRW-all|X-Fi Fatal1ty 2.07.0004|Logitec G7-setpoint 3.1.116|Ergodex DX1-firmware 1.1-driver1.3|-Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW 24-inch LCD|PCPower and Cooling TurboCool 1000 SLI|Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2, DirectX 9.0c(4.09.0000.0904)|Klipsch THX 5.1|

** edit I should mention I'm using the Bioshock beta drivers under windows XP. I can't be bothered running the game in Vista.

Res 1920x1200
Everything maxed out
Solid 60 frames, which I believe is locked via the engine.

My only compliant or so to say was:
- Demo is too quick - finished it in about 10 minutes
- Some of the death animations where a little wacky. I would shoot an enemy and he would react in the opposite direction.
- some minor tearing and I had vsync enabled
- mouse invert does not stick, have to re enable it every time you play.

This is the first time (including the MP summit) where I'm proud of a Medal of Honor game. EA has done a great job with the single player aspect of the game. Here is crossing my fingers we will see this much polish on the MP side of the game.

Screen shots and more info coming later today.

Forte 08-23-2007 07:02 AM

after reading that review and your system specs I will have to download this demo. I really hope we have a winner here. I long for the days of Remagen and DV and I hope this game delivers.

geRV 08-23-2007 07:08 AM

I was honestly suprised when i was firing at a guy and he ran away and hopped through a window opening, the ai does seem to have more of a clue what and what not to do. Smg ammo seems pretty sparse in that level, i levelled up and got the pistol grip upgrade and only had about 32 rounds left, found some ammo here and there got maybe 2 mags worth of trying it out with that upgrade.

From what i seen when i played you can't run over an mp40 and get ammo if you have a tommygun, you either have to find a tommygun laying around or find smg ammo bags (seems to be the same for the other weapons as well). You only fight wops in the demo and you get told they can't fight worth a shit (ooh burn) at the end you come up against some germans but that where the demo ends. So more than likely the germans will react bettter and be tougher to fight.


Did notice an audio bug though, i think i heard the trademark garand "ping" maybe twice in the whole time playing, it just seemed not to play most of the time. My only real gripes are no sli\crossfire support (readme says the demo doesn't even support vista 32 or 64) and no anti aliasing support.


If the rest of the game cna live up to that dmeo it looks like the MOH series might have been brought back fomr life support, thats for the SP experience anyway, multis another kettle of fish.

Chronic Diarrhea 08-23-2007 07:08 AM

I told you guys it was going to be good. The last good game was Allied Assault. It was, after all, the reason we're all registered on this forum. I knew Pacific Assault was going to be ass, something just didn't seem right with it. This game just has the look of a great game.

geRV 08-23-2007 07:16 AM

Some pics here:

Pic #5 that guy came flying out the window as a result of the grenade. biggrin:

Another thing i liked was they actually use the stick grenades properly, when you throw it you see him pull the string at the bottom, details people details. rock:

mr.miyagi 08-23-2007 07:25 AM

Great stuff!

Seemingly the guys must've pulled their finger out after all and the minor issues will hopefully be sorted in a patch.

I just found out my new pc is ready a day early so I'm off to go get it, yay

gtboys34 08-23-2007 08:06 AM

is it the next allied assault fun wise?

rudedog 08-23-2007 08:12 AM

Yes, gtboys it's fun!

geRV, the readme states they will not support Vista/SLI and Crossfire in the demo however:

You can play in Vista it works fine.
People with SLI can play however I would imagine nvidia\ATI will release drivers closer to release to improve things.
you can force AA in ntunes for Nv cards, don't know what the equiv. is for ATI

If they can get the server sided stuff right, on release day then we may be in for another great game from the series (minus PA)....

geRV 08-23-2007 08:33 AM

Runs fine for me in vita 64 so far biggrin:

rudedog 08-23-2007 08:43 AM

That's what gets me geRV

Why did they put all that stuff in the readme? TBH if it was me, I would have read that and not even bothered to install on that platform.

I wonder how much other stuff we will see (on the MP side of things) that EA said is not possible.

Let's hope the U3 engine comes to our rescure, because if EA can pull this out, we are in for some great WWII gaming fun.

I see the old AA.com server coming back rock: if they can!

Simo Häyhä 08-23-2007 08:56 AM

k98 unscoped please

geRV 08-23-2007 09:01 AM

Good thing about unreal engines is theyre usually VERY moddable and mod friendly. Allied assault obviously was a good game but the modified quake 3 engine they used with that weird model format really screwed over any serious mods from ever being made, there were a few attempts but they never really looked that good.


Looking through the folders theres a load of .txf files, if the engine works the same as the previous versions a whole lot can be changed by just modifying values, like mohaa. Wish i could figure out how to unlock the 03 into the demo. eek:

geRV 08-23-2007 09:02 AM

[quote="Simo Häyhä":75d09]k98 unscoped please[/quote:75d09]

You actually have that as an option in your loadout before you jump, as well as an mp40.

Simo Häyhä 08-23-2007 09:02 AM

will strik0r's coolskins work on this demo? rock:

ninty 08-23-2007 09:09 AM

bandalore?

dr nein 08-23-2007 09:15 AM

Interesting upgrades system. Top upgrade for the Thompson is a 50 round drum while the highest Garand upgrade provides the ability to launch rifle grenades which is all sorts of fun.

rudedog 08-23-2007 09:27 AM

Also I would like to add one more thing.

Do not go by the readme. It states a lot of things are not supported but I think what EA means is they will not offer tech support for the software and hardware listed.

Your best bet is to give it a shot if you have the time to download and just check it out.

geRV 08-23-2007 09:30 AM

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/gerald.mar ... ne/ab6.jpg

good times to be had when you land on the ledge of that tower with the 2 riflemen in it, picked off mosta the germans at the top guarding the aa guns. biggrin:

Anyone know how to "flare" the chute and how do you do the underhand grenade throw so it doesn't go so far? eek:

rudedog 08-23-2007 09:36 AM

Oh, one more thing.

Here is a link to Yahoo games. People are saying this is a fast alt. to fileplanet

http://videogames.yahoo.com/pc/medal-of ... ile-527439

One other thing

ONCE THE GAME IS RELEASED PLEASE TRY AND POST IN THAT FORUM.
Yes I know why it was posted here, thanks guys

ninty 08-23-2007 09:41 AM

so how does the game look to your guys when playing? is it a beaut to look at?

rudedog 08-23-2007 10:01 AM

Looks beautiful However there are some minor graphic glitches. some things like buttons reflect too much light so to speak.

see some of my screen shots above, make sure you click on the 1920x1200 link in the upper left hand corner.

I will post more after I cut my grass.

LOL yeah the buttons are pretty weird, the germans would have no need for spotlights if they were that shiny in real life. biggrin:
