Only 99.9% of all people who bought Medal of Error stopped playing it after 3 months and completely after 6

Campy da Camper4325d ago

One day. That game blew so hard. Hands down the dumbest AI I have ever seen.

2pacalypsenow4326d ago

i bought it used and enjoy it

Soldierone4326d ago

Not going to lie, looking forward to the new Medal of Honor. If DICE didn't abandon the last one for BF3 then I'd still be playing. Now that DICE is out of the picture, I have a little more confidence that won't happen again.

WeskerChildReborned4326d ago

Yea and i'm also looking forward to Bad Company 3 cause 2 was awesome and i kinda liked it better than Battlefield 3.

thorstein4326d ago

Couldn't agree more. I loved Medal of Honor. They nailed spawning to make it feel like it was an actual battle. I have to admit that I liked BFBC2 Story and Multi better than BF3. I will keep trying the BF3 MP but the story (though good) has some silly glitches on the PS3 (ie my squad leaving enemies alive and running past them; too many scripted events not allowing me to fight where I want to).

Soldierone4326d ago

Bad Company 2 story was way better. Visually BF3 was amazing, but beyond that the story was lacking....it took the stereotypical EA Shooter route where a guy is getting interrogated just so they can move the story along.

I agree with both of you, I still enjoy Bad Company 2 more than BF3 to this day.

Sucitta4326d ago

Medal of Honor was crap.

The reason most don't play battlefield is that it requires thought, above a 7 yr olds level.

Adexus4326d ago

Battlefield requires thought?

Megaton4326d ago

Battlefield requires about as much thought as CoD, or any of its other cookie cutter military FPS brethren.

BakedGoods4326d ago

You've obviously never played BF.

Megaton4326d ago

You've obviously never played an FPS that requires thought. Go try ARMA or Red Orchestra instead of giving Battlefield the credit it isn't due. It's just as casual run-n-gun as CoD, only with over-sized maps and not enough vehicles.

2pacalypsenow4326d ago

@Megaton in other words those games are boring .If you want a simulation join the army games are meant to be fun not confusing and technical especially Online multiplayer shooters theres a reason why people play BF3 and COd and Not Arma and red orchestra (i played Red Orchestra on steam , it sucks)

yoyo121214323d ago

Bf3 requires teamwork!
Something COD doesn't have

Alot of thought must go into aiming and shooting people then

BaSeBaLlKiD7214326d ago

I actually thought Medal of Honor was fun to play online. It was something different than CoD.

Straightupbeastly4326d ago

It was the same crap as cod. Bad spawns, cramped maps, op killstreaks. It was a mess

thorstein4326d ago

"bad spawns" MOH specifically had many spawns that were unreachable by the opposing team.

Soldierone4326d ago

Did you actually play the game? Or did you rent it or base this off the beta?

Straightupbeastly4326d ago

I played the actual game. On ps3 too, it was terrible. Freezing, bad frame rate. It was the sloppiest multiplat shooter this gen. But that moh multiplayer has nothing to do with warfighter because warfighter is completely made by danger close

GaryOak4326d ago

43.7% of all stats are made up on the spot.

thorstein4326d ago

17% of all people could tell you that.

Campy da Camper4325d ago

99% sure I want a bowl of Lucky Charms right now.

I think the only type of games that can gets away with it would be sport games, having those sponsors ads on the side like on real life.

But don't put freaking Doritos ads in Star Wars or something, it breaks the immersion. If it is a pop-up ads, then big no.

EA can thoughtfully eff themselves.

EA coming back for the crown of being perceived as the worst company in gaming.

Report: Sexual Misconduct Investigation Conducted at EA, Suspects Named and What They Did Revealed

EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.

isarai6d ago

Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.

Cacabunga5d ago

I wonder if it will be censored with some in game ads.

MrBaskerville3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Microsoft did, Phil Spencer played a minor part. He instigated the buyout that led to Kotick escaping all his controversies while getting a golden handshake.

Someone on Twitter calculated that the people hired in Tango and Arkane Austin could get a decent salary for roughly 17 years for the money Kotick was paid.

InUrFoxHole2d ago

Yeah some thing tells me Kotics $ was already guaranteed before MS made the deal. As for the studios... Let's be honest here... none of those studios made system sellers.

XiNatsuDragnel5d ago (Edited 5d ago )

EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.

MrBaskerville3d ago

Then they shutdown Codemasters and studio behind Jedi Survivor.

Atleast they could hardly do much damage that EA hadn't allready done. EA has shut down most of their studios by now.

ravens525d ago

What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.

Extermin8or3_5d ago

I mean part of the issue is that things transpired outside of work....

MrBaskerville3d ago

That's the thing he mentioned about not being a creep at all.

KwietStorm_BLM5d ago

You think deviants care where they are? Work sometimes makes it an even better situation for them because they can abuse their power.

mudakoshaka4d ago

Nerds think they are Gods when they are making video games.

NotoriousWhiz5d ago (Edited 5d ago )

"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."

Yep, EA is disgusting.

Extermin8or3_5d ago

I mean the fact stuff happened outside of work puts EA in quite a difficult position legally. These women don't seem to have reported the matter to the police which kinda ties EA's hands on what they can do. If they don't file reports of the crimes then yeah from EA's perspective it is stuff that happened outside of work. The only exception is the guy that apparently referenced things in the slack channel for work, spending on what he said proving it may be very hard and he may well be able to get away with plausible deniability. I don't like EA and I think these people need to be dismissed but without any legal action being taken, EA can't really do much without risk of being sued themselves for unfair dismissal etc.

Well, anything to make those shareholders happy, I guess. They're all that matters in this industry nowadays.

EA stocks haven't been profitable in over 5yrs. They better hope Take-two don't get the FIFA license lol.
