What went wrong?
No sequel
No secret operations which was MoH's trademark, instead fighting in squad.
You didn't play as Jimmy
>>332968730
I thought it was good, I consider it kind of an alternate version of Rising Sun, shame this one didn't come out on PC, I remember having a blast with it on the first Xbox.
Game's free on Origin if anyone's interested.
It was dogshit compared to MoHAA in every single way.
Even the single player was insufferable.
>>332968730
nothing in particular.
What went right?
>>332968730
It was actually good once you got past the first set of missions where you had absolute shit tier equipment.
>>332969151
It's a decent point. They did really go for realism and squad base small tactics in this, but I think they did fairly well. MOH as a whole feels like it has sub series within the main series.
You got the PS1 OSS secret agent games. You have the PS2 games which where a mix of that with some larger scale action but still a console shooter. You got Allied Assault trilogy being a PC shooter with even more big battle focus and then Pacific Assault going for realistic squad shooter, and Airborne being a sort of almost open world, really innovative sort of game. Fuck I want a sequel to Airborne so bad.
>>332969210
You didn't in Underground or Allied Assault either.

There is your problem. The MOH games are usually so different from each other you shouldn't compare, but enjoy each style for what it does best.

JUST FUCK MY FRANCHISE UP EA
>>332969687
I know, I'm talking about Rising Sun.
>>332969349
It did come out on PC, are you sure you're thinking of the right game?
The game wasn't perfect but it was definitely my favorite MOH. I absolutely loved the whole squad thing, getting revived in the heat of battle by your medic, the pretty varried missions. On hard mode it was intense, way better than Rising Sun.
>>332969541
N-nothing
>>332969541
Holy shit, the multiplayer mode of this game was infuriating.
Even when I ended up kicking everyone's ass I was boiling with rage.
>>332969735
Loved Rising Sun. It's a shame it never got on PC, we'll never play that multiplayer the way it was meant to be.
>>332969735
buy a ps2 and set it up for piracy bruv
go get dem ISOs
>>332969941
Even with bots I loved playing the MP.
That map with the two boats was goat.

Literally keking at the reading comprehension of you three fags. Did either of you actually read his post.
He said he enjoyed playing Rising Sun on Xbox and wishes it was on PC. Fucks sake.
Heroes of the West is a free ETO mod for RO2 that just came out. It's kind of a return to form, check it out for more WW2 goodness
Is WW2 also your favorite war?
>>332969941
I wish CoD2:BRO came out on PC. I really think it was better than mainline 2.
>>332970046
DOGAN WILL FUCK YOUR SHIT UP
>>332968730
It was good at its time. Played it as a kid. Fuck that flying mission.
>>332970197
Isn't it just America from RS vs Germany from RO2. Or have they changed it up make them work. If Murica has flamethrowers, what do Germans have to counter it with if they don't have knee mortars?
Are there any new maps even?
>>332968730
I tried playing this one time, and holy shit, couldn't even muster up the willpower to finish the beach mission.
Gun play felt so bad.
>>332970341
Flying mission is goat.

based on the context and formatting of his post it's safe to assume he was talking about the game in the OP.

at the time i thought it was refreshingly realistic, especially compared to any other MOH
it felt like more than just clicking on heads

Learn how grammar works, the subject of the first two phrases was pacific assault. He didn't make it clear, go outside and run a lap you pathetic fuck.
>>332970451
Which beach mission? The first one in Makin Atoll?
Once you get to Guadalcanal and Tarawa the game is good. First missions in Makin Atoll are shit because you have garbage weak as fuck weapons, because IRL the Marines were really undersupplied in the beginning of the war.

Americans have flamethrower so far only on Omaha. Everyone knows how OP it is, but all maps are Axis sided right now. Germans also got G43, mines. Americans got Grease Gun and soon M1 Thompson will replace M1928.
Also Brits are added. They have Piat which works similar to knee mortar, but direct mode only and really shit.
>>332970506
The fact that he said he played it on Xbox and lamented not PC release (when PA is PC exclusive) should have clued you in that "this one" was a typo and he meant to say "that one".
Anyways I'm not defending another random anon anymore. I was keking at the sheer number of people confused by his post.
>>332970741
So defensive.
>>332970620
It was probably due to the fact that the BAR was the first gun that you used that wasn't a turret, and it felt fucking awful. Handling was off, sounds were low-key and not even remotely jarring, and it puny.
>>332970398
In terms of weapons I don't think there's anything too new for Americans/germans, but they did add an entire British team with fresh guns. Don't remember seeing any flamethrowers, pretty sure that's out for most maps...although I'm pretty sure axis can still plant booby trap grenades.
The new maps are the best part anon. They feel a lot more like RO1/DH, I'm really digging them so far. Omaha is kind of a slog to start as usual tho, gets WAY better once you move the battle inland.
>>332971026
Alright, that's pretty cool I guess. But the main issue is how many servers run the mode?
Do I just subscribe from the steam workshop? Is it a separate exe or what?
>>332970901
it's more of a prologue than a real mission IIRC. Makin is the first real mission of the game and it's shit. I really didn't like MOH PA at first, but ended up enjoying the game after I got to Guadalcanal.
>>332971505
Yeah, Makin is very tedious and if you are not too much into the franchise and these games in general, a lot of people will drop it.
Plus the entire levels were just dark jungle so it was quite boring.

I know how brutal they were, but fuck they're fun to use.

It wasn't the playable issue of Commando I had now expected MoH games to be. Rising Sun was the better campaign.
>>332971742
>mfw using the flamethrower in COD WaW on the Wii
Glorious.
>>332971505
You download it through Steam store page, but it runs as part of RO2. Look for servers with map name starting with "WF".
>>332971860
Oh shit, it's got an official release, wow, did not know that. Guess I'm gonna have to play tonight.
So soon to RS2 as well. Fuck so much RO2 stuff lately.
>>332971093
I'm not defensive, he was objectively unclear. That's just what he said - obviously you don't know the rules of the language you're speaking.
I don't have an Xbox, I don't know if it's on there, why would I make that assumption? I think it's about time you kekked your way into a Logic class anon.
>downloading it now
I always put my games on hard the first go, what am I in for?
>>332972425
Prepare to use Springfield M1903's, captured Arisaka's and the absolute shit tier M51 Reising for the first few missions, all at night time, in the thick jungle, for the duration of the Makin Atoll Raid.
Wait it out though, game gets gud during Guadalcanal when you finally get weapons that aren't pea shooters.
>we'll never get a MoH game as good as PS1 ones ever again
JUST
>>332970573
>netcode
i remember playing the free beta and pretty much half of the times i killed an enemy he killed me too
one of the worst online fps i played at that point, but then mw3 and battlefield 3 came out
>>332972891
>the PS1 MOH's will never ever get a PC port
Fucking why. All I want is mouselook. I don't know what it's going to feel like going back to pre analog stick console FPS. God console FPS is bad enough as it is, I don't know how I did it with the d pad back when I was a kid. I fucking loved MOH and Underground though.
>>332972891
I don't often say this, but it literally is Call of Duty that's to blame. If it didn't sell trillions, developers wouldn't feel it necessary to try and copy it.
>>332969541
Campaign was actually very good. I loved the soundtrack, as well.
>>332972721
>picking up enemy bolt actions instead of using standard issue in WW2 games
But anon that's my fetish
