Medal of Honor: Allied Assault War Chest

This game and its score is proof that nostalgia sells very well.

I think all these glowing reviews come through nostalgia, not any real review of the game. I've played some stinkers, but this one is pretty damn high on that list. Nothing says shit game like taking a sniper shot from hiding, and having every enemy on the map respond with instant, 100% accurate return fire. That alone makes this one unworthy of playing, but when you add in "just follow me" gameplay, reload times that take longer than just switching weapons and broken physics, you end up with a steaming pile of crap called Medal of Honor: Allies ASSault. Don't waste your money.

This games there is a good number of missions, weapons and more, but the IA makes me very furious when I play, the npc's can see you on the other side of map, e their shots are perfect, because em 90% they hit you. Playing in easy, the game is hard, any game that gameplay is this way I drop and no play anymore, To me Medal of Honor Allied Assault is big generic FPS game.

Actually, did they ever git gud? It was a mainstream game that wasn't "yet another Doom clone". No need to think of level layout, use very different guns, learn how to counter various monsters that had very different attack, to actually actively avoid projectiles. Just WW2 guns of hitscan, soldjas, on-rails action. Sometimes an important NPC you have to protect rushes forward and you have to tank like in MMOs. And it was before it became a proper spectacle either. You are still an American super-soldja that single-handedly destroyes both Third Reich and anime. You get more teammates but it doesn't really feel like a war. At least I must say that enemies feedback is pretty good, they do try to show off various human-like individual tactics, may surprise you. Also, dogs. Once I saw their running animation I LOLed. Actually, I am not a hate monster and I've installed it with feeling of WW2 shooter nostalgia. But by the time I got done with a game I really don't feel like playing another one. The biggest flaw of Allied Assault got to be that AI can see through foliage perfectly while you are struggling. This is the reason why sniper town is such BS. It also gets stupid by the end of game. Omaha Beach landing is like Saving Private Ryan, as historically inaccurate. But gamey and goreless. Those machine guns sure get perfect hits at Czech hedgehogs when you are hiding there, not touching you with a single bullet. You even get to use your American smelly sticky explosive socks in expansion pack, just like in movie. Good music tho. Spearhead expansion pack is better. You can lean in singleplayer. You always have teammates so you feel like a normal soldier. Berlin campaign is weird. Anticlimatic and short. At least not offensive to USSR veterans. Why is there an American? No foilage sniping at least. Breakthrough sucks. At this point your brain will be dead from stale gameplay and now enemies very rarely drop ammo. Enemies feel bulletspongy and come like L4D zombies.

fuck this game, in this game you play as hitscan bait with no idea what the hell tour supposed to do or what your objective is, level 2 when your stuck with the stupid ass spingfeild is an absolute slog, every hit you take (and you WILL get hit) readjusts your screen, so yo are garenteed to miss every single shot, speaking of missing, do yourself a favor and miss this game
