With all the fanfare surrounding Black Ops I wonder if anyone has bought / is playing Medal of Honor, which was also released recently? I bought MOH a couple of weeks ago, and Black Ops this week, and I honestly think MOH is the better game.
From an ex-ET players perspective MOH offers an Objective game mode where you have to blow something up (or usually 2 or more somethings) and a Combat Mission mode where you have to blow something up to get to the next stage of a map (where you have to do something else to get to the stage after that etc.).
In other words a fairly ET-ish type of gameplay compared to Black Ops which is S&D or TDM mainly.
(there are other modes in MOH, such as Sector Control (similar to BF2) and a TDM mode)
Yes MOH is like most modern games, realistic weapons, ironsights pretty much required to shoot accurately (tho they're smooth and fast), I think the damage model is pretty low but most automatics seem to have a high rate of fire. Firing from the hip is possible at close quarters, but you can't sprint and shoot.
Graphically it pisses all over Black Ops, very very detailed enviroments and atmospheric effects, very good sound quality, and once you set the FOV to a decent value (which you can only do by editing a file) it feels pretty fast and smooth.
Anyone else playing this ?

waiting for mw3 now
moh sp is mediocore, just random places where you shot
blackops at least has creativity *and honestly, moh was one hell of a shit game)
took me 10000 deaths but i managed in veteran, i was pissed
In Combat Mission one team attacks and the other defends. There are a series of objectives and at the end of the round the time it took to complete each objective is displayed on screen. The teams then swap sides and again at the end of the round the times are displayed.
However each "half" round runs for the full time (or until all objectives are completed). The 2nd half doesn't end once the time it took the 1st team to complete all objectives has been exceeded like it does in ET.
So you could arrive at a winner by comparing end of round screens, but the game doesn't do it for you.
i dont think its going to happen on the competitive scene though as its sector control which is used :(
but still if u want a game add 'ethernet' in game ;-)
Have they added recoil yet ?
but as you said cod has been released and tere is/was no competition mod for MoH prior to that. we will see when that comes...

It's pretty long and detailed
Just makes me happier when you paste the .org links <3
As for competitive play it seems Sector Control is the prefered game mode, unfortunately, and the lack of a console and / or option to connect by IP is a serious drawback. The game needs a mod, and I know there are a few that work with the game (like the B3 bot), but what they can add in the way of tools for competition I don't know.
