Summary
Electronic Arts' reboot of the classic military FPS has raised much expectation, with the franchise now being set against the might of Activision's Call of Duty series. The first and most obvious difference from this new version of the game is that it is not set in World War II.
Medal of Honor 2010 takes gamers into the current conflict being fought out by the Tier 1 Operators from the US Special Operations Community in Afghanistan. Basically these guys are the hardest of the hard, taking on military tasks that no one else is capable of. In fact, the development team actually worked with the Tier 1 guys from the get-go.
The single-player campaign is a lengthy affair that sees gamers operating with Tier 1 combatants under the National Command Authority in Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom. Players get to play as a US Army Ranger and an Apache helicopter gunner.
The single-player campaign will use a customised version of Unreal Engine 3. Online multiplayer mode, from specialist developer DICE, makes use of the the Frostbite engine. Online is not simply a port of DICE's highly-rated Battlefield Bad Company, but a whole new experience.
In short, the new Medal of Honor has been totally updated from setting to content, through combatants and both off and online modes.
