I Just found out today that the Metal of Honor series will have a new addition :Airborne. I have all of the previous games in the series, so if your interested heres a link to the info,

MOH Airborne

Their a little tight liped at planet metal of honor about this game right now, I think were all in for some pleasant suprises when this game comes out, especially in game play. I haven't read anything about multi-player yet.

Q: People have been complaining about too many WWII based games for a along time, what set MoH: Airborne apart from the pack?

PG: Airborne is fundamentally about freedom and player choice. From the first step out of the plane, the player is in control of how the experience plays out. The player defines their landing spot, angle of approach, tactics and style throughout the game. That's a big difference from the rail-ride shooting galleries we've seen within the genre in the past. If you can land anywhere in the battle area, even on sniper towers and church steeples, the game cannot be linear.

This makes me hard. Sorry was that too much info? It would be like Far Cry, only WWII themed.

If they did the Multi-player right, I might finally have a successor to COD. what would be "right".



- Include vehicles, esp. tanks.

- Include game types like Base Assult, Domination, and Conquest.

- Cool idea - let each map start with the Airborne drop, with each plane flying across the map, meaning you could choose to drop in on the "defensive" side or behind enemy territory on the "offensive" side. Imagine the possible mayhem to start each map!

- Include anti-cheating software.



And to give themselves a reason to do the multi-player right, I'd accept a future multi-player expansion that would add a couple additional gun types, new tanks and/or anti-tank guns, and flyable planes, plus new maps. But the point is, here's hoping they do everything that COD2 failed to do for me. Make a complete multi-player experience from the start.



Finally, could you imagine a better way to bribe game reviewers than to invite them out to the desert and let them fire real WW2 weapons to their heart content!?!? We'll have to read someone else's review to find out if it really is as good as it sounds!
