The Medal of Honor is also a work that can be recorded in the history of the game.
Some players have commented on the Medal of Honor series this way: When a game goes to the top, it is already on the decline.
Testimonials from players
This player's evaluation is concise and concise. Indeed, players who have played any of the works in the Medal of Honor series, regardless of the horizontal reviews of other works in the same series, I believe that everyone will give this IP a very high evaluation.
Linear narrative, excellent picture expression, first-class blow feel and operation... This kind of label that can be given to other similar T0-level FPS games can still appear in the Medal of Honor series.
So, today, follow the explosive brother to recall this classic FPS series game that also has more than 20 years of "advanced age"!
First, the life of the downhill road
The first work of the Medal of Honor was born in 1999. Developed by DreamWorks and released by EA, this work was released on the PS1 platform.
Later, when I was in the entire series of works, I found that since the first release in 1999, including the expansion pack, the entire Medal of Honor has 16 works. Although with the iteration of the game engine and the improvement of computer and host hardware, the performance of the MEDAL of Honor IP in all aspects has shown what it should look like in each era, but the rating of IGN is getting lower and lower.
As a result, the first generation released on PS1 is the highest rated work in the entire series, with a score of 9.3. The Medal of Honor Warfighter, released in 2012, had a 4.0 rating.
"There's a problem with the story, there's a problem with the characters, there's a problem with the campaign mode, it's a problem with the multiplayer mode, it's a big technical problem..."
If you want to get such a low score, it also takes a lot of thought
Not to mention the new work, as far as the expressiveness of the game is concerned, let's first look back at the performance of the 1st generation of works before the millennium: aiming at the head of the enemy unit, it is possible to kill directly, it is also possible to hit the helmet, the helmet needs to be replaced after being shot; when throwing the wooden handle grenade, it is not only thrown out of the grenade, but also a "hand flower shake" forward shake action...
I personally commented on it this way: debut is the peak.
Headshots and thunder throwing
Second, the peak in my mind
The first time I was exposed to the Medal of Honor was when I was in school, playing the version of Joint Attack. 5 pieces of DB discs, Tong Sou is not deceived, fortunately the optimization is not too bad, the home of the old tooth big head monitor can still run smoothly.
Tong Sou's unbridled DB disc, can not be packed back, conscience!
The chapter I remember most about this work is the Normandy landing.
The moment the landing craft was opened, the teammates in the boat were immediately hit by machine gun strafing from the shore, and they were killed in an instant, and they needed to find cover to avoid strafing. At this time, the friendly troops of other landing craft will also disembark, take the explosives in their hands to blow up the iron dragon's tooth barricade, and after laying down the bomb, they will also sacrifice heroically... Some of the levels I would play back and forth, even back to the level of VR SWAT, haunted house, because in those days, this game was really fun.
A landing scene that is full of substitutions
Originally, it would have been thought that such excellent FPS works would be passed down from generation to generation like COD and BF, becoming a classic game in the minds of two or even three generations, and as a result, the joint attack seemed to become a "masterpiece".
From the scores given by IGN, apart from the first one in 1999, Joint Attack is the highest-rated generation of works, with a high score of 9.3. The level of the game is extremely complete, the weapons are rich, and the sense of reality in all aspects is real... Excellent performance in many aspects, joint attack has become the most memorable generation of works for most players...

Third, from passive to more passive
Call of Duty is a mountain that the Medal of Honor can never climb, and this mountain is so overwhelming that they can't breathe at all, so that later, the Medal of Honor has been living in the "shadow" of Call of Duty.
In 2007, the Call of Duty series released its 4th installment, Modern Warfare. This work, which has sold more than 10 million in half a year and IGN has given 9.4 points, can be said to be a milestone in the history of FPS games.
At this time, the Medal of Honor, still in the World War I and World War II theme "crawling" to find a way out, until 2010, did not release the modern battlefield theme of the Medal of Honor 2010 edition.
The 2010 edition of the Medal of Honor with modern themes
Taking the relevant actions in Afghanistan in 2002 as the game's adaptation of the plot is true, the feeling of running out of food is indeed desperate, and the sacrifice of the hare does have tears...
But in the 2010 version, the players who have "seen the world" obviously do not buy it, and the medal of honor that tries to change the direction seems to be absent, and it is complained about by the players, and then it is slowly forgotten...
Two years later, in 2012, also a new version of the theme of modern warfare, the Medal of Honor: Soldier online, but the defeat of the Medal of Honor has been decided, and it is difficult to collect. Putting aside the 4.0 rating given by IGN, looking at this game as an ordinary player, it is actually very good, maybe EA bragged too much in the early stage.
The warriors of 2012 are not bad in quality
Fifth, finally
The severity of the volume.
In the case of high contrast between large investment and less return, the entire series of medals of honor has been dusted off, after all, it is not profitable. And the work of the next door is sound and colorful, in recent years, even at the same time in the multi-generational works, the game content is cool enough, exciting enough, and, fancy enough.
After all, in the era of fast food, who would like to sit in front of the computer and the host computer and watch you put it here to narrate and tell stories? Of course, in addition to stand-alone content, the experience of online content is also very important...
So let the memories stay where they should stop.
Borrow a disc from a small partner, open the optical drive, install, pray that the game will work normally, play for a day, and then secretly play half a night after the parents sleep... I played the old version of the Medal of Honor status, that's it...
