They... they were in the bushes...

Pacific Assault marks the entry of the Medal of Honor franchise into the modern era of first-person gameplay, and as such, it's guaranteed to be divisive. While Allied Assault was very “run and gun”-oriented at points, this game feels more realistic and modern in its mechanics. It's all about getting behind cover, aiming down sight, having a two-weapons limit, and calling the team medic if your health is low – yep, medkits are barely a thing anymore! Enemies often hide behind thick foliage, and big chunks of the game are spent behind cover, trying to locate and kill them before they can flank you: seriously, half of this game is spent shooting at bushes. It works well though, and feels tense and kind of realistic, notably because the guns are fun to fire, but this type of gameplay is not everyone's taste. From time to time, Pacific Assault leaves behind this grounded combat style and lets you take control of an artillery piece to destroy tanks and planes. These sequences, while fun, can feel excessive when compared to the rest of it. Only occasionally does this game find a good balance between explosive set pieces and semi-realistic combat, but when it does, like in the Henderson Field level, it becomes quite enthralling. Graphically, even if it hasn't aged particularly well, the game is decent enough for 2004, being able to render fairly big and detailed jungle environments – even though it's done at the cost of long loading times. Immersion is overall a big selling point for this game, with a lot of credible environments, some tense situations, a few heavily scripted but memorable cinematic moments, and constant exchange between you and your (very likable) teammates. It does a really good job at making you feel like a soldier fighting his way through the jungle. In the end, I would definitely recommend Pacific Assault for its immersiveness, and for its depiction of the Pacific War, which remains a rare sight in entertainment media and video games in particular.

A game that simply doesn't work

I mean from design standpoint, not technical. It does launches and work. With 15fps at times, strangely enough. None the less, I did expect to find a linear shooter which would have squad mechanic. Just some light tactics that still matters, while teammates don't really die, getting revived by medic. I did enjoy Rainbow Six Vegas games. But this one just doesn't work. Squad tactics? Yea, tactics where "forward" command makes them rush into the tower behind you which they refuse to leave until forced to teleport back to your back once you leave them behind. Too passive too. Linear level design really doesn't give you any approach styles, just forward onward. Teammate AI is so bad and inaccurate, enemy weeb actually was able to rush past three teammates in order to put a bullet in my head when I was laying down. So once again, squad tactics feel useless. For a game where you are supposed to take cover the huge collision around object will often stop your bullets and grenades dead. And for a game taking place in a jungle they sure didn't bother to program AI vision to take foilage into account, allowing them to see you perfectly through opaque bushes while you can't, not unlike Allied Assault. And on top of that, shooting damage was nerfed heavily along with sound design not giving any satisfaction to the gunplay and movement is extremely clumsy on top of that. Add in amazing things such as AI teammate standing calmly in front of my turret as I was shooting; soldier standing on thin air, alive and shooting, when wooden tower got blown off; teammate standing and blocking my way out of hut when I went to check it out, forcing me to shoot into his face; hearing that the game has unforgiving plane minigame later on and it was just hiasndpqndqw. None of the game mechanics were developed and pushing through them just gives you generic WW2 FPS. Pop-up facts suck too, it's like having a troll giving you random unsystematical facts when you are busy.

Aged terribly

OK, so this game I absolutely loved as a kid. I was a huge fan of MoH and kind of disliked CoD. Allied Assault was one my favourite games, and here comes the sequel! In the times of release it came complete with a Pearl Harbor battle scene - with the movie fresh in our minds - boot camp training and a new squad based system. I loved this game back then, you even got to fly an airplane!! Played it on my shit computer before getting a new one, in slideshow framerate. In 2023 however... yeah... This game kind of suck. The protagonist is emo, the squad based system really, really bad and the graphics are not as good as they should be (same year as Half Life 2, come on!). The weapons feel weird with the bullet counter on the side and they just sound off. Many weapons absolutely suck and the rifles are terrible. Stealing japanese rifles is a death sentence since they do no damage. Most missions are kind of bland too, and there's no open terrain in the way one would expect a jungle war game. I have lots of problems with this game as an adult, but as a teenager I had a blast.
