Just so we are clear, the high ratings are purely nostalgia or from some idiots who actually think this game is great. This game is bad. Not terrible or unplayable, it's just bad. I really hate how people say this game is "Hard" or "Challenging", mainly because it isn't. What it is, for most of the game, is broken. Most of the level desgin is tedious as all hell. The hitscanning enemies are out in force in this game. Getting shot and having you screen rocking around is annoying but makes sense in a way of letting you know to take cover. That being said, there are many times the game pushes you into open conflicts with multiple enemies and no cover which makes it a roll of the dice to complete. Team AI is trash. Some objectives are to keep teammates alive, only to watch them run out into the open to be killed and fail the mission for you. Sometimes enemies spawn behind you in areas you just cleared out. And with all this, the game legit makes it so YOU have to do everything. One level in particular had me running from one machine gun to another across the room to hold off an attack. The only pros I can think of are how smooth the game is (Thanks to the Quake engine) and how enemies don't take as much damage to die compared to other MOH games. I wouldn't recommned this game. But if you do end up playing it, be warned, this game was not made properly.
Anyone who says this game is good is a complete idiot or somehow pushed through this garbage and beat it. Everything is in this game is either medicore to just straight up bad. EVERYTHING. Shooting is awful. Driving makes no sense and the cops only go after you when you speed or go through red lights even when you're chasing or being chased by gangsters with guns shooting. The only things that are good are in this dumpster fire are the stroy and some of the details in the game like car damage and bullet casings on the ground. Fuck the devs and fuck anyone who honestly thinks this game is "good".
