Medal of Honor Review

In multiplayer mode you play as either the Opposing Force(Taliban) or the Coalition(USA).  The Coalition uses guns like the M16,  M4 and M9 while the Opposing Force uses AK-47’s,  RPG-7’s and SVG’s.

You have 3 classes to choose from.  Rifleman,  Special Ops and Sniper.  All 3 classes are very weak when you start and you must level up each one to earn upgrades like extra magazines,  scopes and additional weapons.  For example you don’t get a chance to upgrade your scope until you have reached level 3 in a class.  Each class goes up to level 15.

This adds to the steep learning curve,  not only are you trying to learn and memorize several maps,  you are severally gimped and winded up dying a lot as level 15’s are taking advantage of you.  I played as all 3 classes however my favorite was Special Ops.  As the special ops would use the M4 for the Americans and the AK-47 for the Taliban,  a gun that I’m very comfortable with.

Eventually as you level higher,  you can gain access to the enemies weapons if you choose.  Once you reach level 8,  you are considered a Tier 1 and your character takes on a new look.  When you kill a Tier 1,  you get 5 bonus points to your kill chain.

Kill Chains are like Kill Streaks,  you add to your chain by killing several enemies in a row,  completing a task like planting a charge or blowing up a tank etc.  Kill Chain rewards are mortar strikes,  air strikes,  extra ammo etc.

The Multiplayer supports up to 24 player matches and really shines with the excellent sound quality.  It feels like a war zone,  the explosions,  the carnage,  the soldiers screaming at each other and the frantic pace adds to the fun.  At first the Maps all seem the same however they are actually very different and have a good mixture.
