Have some nostalgia y'all
I hope Medal of Honor gets revived some day, but not that modern day shit though.
I always enjoyed Medal of Honor campaigns more than any COD. The pacific series was unreal and I will never forget pearl harbor.
The MOH games also had some pretty great soundtracks

Wasn't Airborne the game that finally caused reviewers to flip out about how WWII shooters were an old hat and so forth?
Oh wow, seeing this brings back a lot of memories. I still remember the blokes screaming inside the burning wrecks of their Tigers after you destroyed them, or playing multiplayer and shooting the paratroopers as they fell to the floor. God I miss WW2 shooters...
Please make a WW2 game in modern day engines. thx.

There's this coming out: [url]http://www.battaliongame.com[/url]
Looks like it'll be like CoD2. Worth keeping an eye on.

It still amazes me that Michael Giacchino, who made my favorite MoH song Operation Market Garden, was also responsible for the music for Up, The Incredibles, and other amazing movies with amazing soundtracks, and I didn't even know that until recently.

there are a few indie ww2 fpses but none of them have a singleplayer campaign with big budget polish
Airborne was such an interesting game imo

IIRC, Giacchino made the jump from video games to TV and film because J.J. Abrams liked his music from video games (Medal of Honor presuambly) and wanted to have him compose the music for Lost. After that it was just bigger project to bigger project until eventually he was scoring big budget films.
Just finished this game again the other day, too bad it has some pretty bad controls now that I play it again

God, the D-Day landings would look fucking amazing on a modern day engine
Oh shit I remember this game. Had one of the coolest looking enemies ever.

I'm going to have to disagree with you there. The Medal of Honor campaigns were decent, but they were fucking nothing compared to the first 2 CoDs, espeically 2. There's a reason I haven't touched the Medal of Honor games in a long time yet replayed the CoDs just last year.
Loved this when it came out.
I decided to pick it up when it went on sale on Steam recently and i really couldn't get into it. It feels like ass to play. Mouse movement feels bad and you can't even move while aiming down sights.
It's a real shame because I have many fond memories of this game.
WWII is still a war with many unexplored areas, bring the era back please.

Just looked up the CODs on steam cause I wanted to replay them too...still 20 dollars for 1 and 2. Worth it but damn I ain't made of money

At least last year we got a mainstream WWI game which I thought was never gonna happen.
My dad was a paratrooper and he would hate this game. Not because they didn't get anything right, but also because he'd be stuck at the main menu for hours.
Also does anyone remember back in the early-mid 2000s when almost every FPS game was set in WW2? Shit.

it might be illegal to mention MoH without mentioning this theme
I remember playing airborne a long time ago and every animation was at 2 fps it was fuckin impossible to play but I still managed to beat it.[/QUOTE]
Some serious nostalgia from that theme...

what a game
'Infinite Mischief' gets me every single time I see the jump, Airborne was such a good MoH entry

The last one had interesting multiplayer on large maps but the previous game killed a lot of the interest

This scene was so immersive when I first played it, I so badly want a AAA title to do a D-day scene

Oh shit, well that might happen [url]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1557940[/url]
Picked this up because of the thread and it still holds up. The sights are a little wonky, the options for video and control are lackluster, the AI can be a pain sometimes, and the mouse movement is hot garbage compared to modern shooters, but it does a ton of really interesting things that I haven't even seen in other games. There's an arcadey feel to the on-the-go upgrades to guns and the challenge jumps but it really doesn't get in the way of a Call of Duty-type realism-lite WWII experience when you're playing it. It also has a ton more replayability than those.
The maps are just [I]perfect.[/I] Maybe it could do with some more enemies when you're high up (console limitations, maybe) but it really does feel like you're roaming freely around a chaotic battlefield with your spread-out paratroopers, pushing and holding what you can as you inch closer to the objectives, which you can tackle in any order. It's a stark contrast to regular WWII campaigns that feature you as either part of a larger force taking over terrain in a more linear manner, or an elite five-man squad doing their sneaky sabotaging, like in CoD games.

Hold sprint while aiming down sights to move. You can even combine leaning into moving while aiming. It's pretty clever, actually.
