    SP is short and sweet, but lacks proper AI and storytelling. The graphics and the sound are beyond average and show the strengths of FrostBite 2.0. Controls are somewhat clunky and overloaded, but you get a hang of it.
    The MP has some nice new features like FireTeam and a BuddySystem, but can't stay up to BF3 (and CoD).

    Medal of Honor: Warfighter is by far not a masterpiece, but it isn't a bad game either.

The multiplayer is unique, and offers 6 different classes, all with 10 countries to represent each one. There is a mass amount of gun customization, although the unlock system is a mess IMO, as I can't figure out how/when I unlock things. I also have a mass of menu notifications that I can't seem to get rid of. There are pretty standard game modes, and each class has its own tactical advantage, and when playing with the right team, the multiplayer can be a blast. So overall, this game is pretty fun; just don't go into it expecting something amazing. It's pretty much the standard, modern day FPS we come to expect; nothing more. I couldn't see myself coming back to this game a year from now (maybe if they constantly release updates/DLC), but it's fun for what it is.… Expand

    Medal of Honor: Warfighter, was a mixbag of feelings. In one hand it is a great looking game with a much improved gameplay from his last game from 2010. On the other, the use of Frostbite 2, did feel kind of odd. The not so good bugs that appear in game, almost ruined my experience, but overall it was a great game... http://www.moodgamer.net/2012/11/analise-medal-of-honor-warfighter.html

    This game tries to land somewhere in the middle of BF3 and Modern Warfare3 and in my opinion succeeds at doing that and then does nothing more. Take the small, close quarters non sniper maps of COD as well as the kill streak perks and mix that with the squad based elements of battlefield and add the game modes of both and you have MOH's multiplayer in a nut shell.

The problem is that although it uses the frostbite 2 engine the graphics are no where near as good as Battlefield 3 and although the maps are small the run and gun fun factor experienced in COD is not found in this game. I think the maps are boring and uninspired. The sound is not great. Overall I was disappointed because I expected the game to be a lot better than the 2010 MOH and it just is not. On top of that add in a short boring linear scripted campaign and this game just falls short of fun. And the replay value is extremely low. I would say keep playing BF3 and then give Black Ops 2 a try. Or wait another year for BF4 if you are anti COD. But this years MOH is skip-able. This is just another average shooter in a flooded market.… Expand

    Medal of honor warfighter is a good game. The games graphics are insane. The sound design is way better than battlefield 3. The story is a bit of a dissapointment, but the campaign features plenty of variety. Driving sequences, door breaches, boat segments, chases, and helicopter raids. The game does have a fair number of glitches, but these aren't game wrecking issues by any means. TheMedal of honor warfighter is a good game. The games graphics are insane.

The mission structure and level design of the game is overall good. But it's not anything new or orignal. The controls of the game are silky smooth, and should be easy to get used to. The gunplay is rather satisfying in warfighter, and there's lots of guns too. The AI in the game definitely leaves alot to be desired. The game still can be challenging, but the AI doesn't really use good tactics. The game has plenty of content. Six hour campaign with plenty of variety, and a multiplayer mode with five or so team objective based combat. New features like the fireteam system fix many spawn related issues seen in most shooters. There are plenty of classes, guns to unlock by ganing ranks, etc. While Medal of honor Warfighter doesn't do anything new or original, the game is still a good game for those looking for their yearly first person shooter. If it looks fun to you, then I would say give it a shot. Those other reviewers I believe are being way to harsh on this game.… Expand

The ability to work with a fireteam buddy. Great hit detection and pretty well balanced. I score it a 7 due tot he fact that it claims "authenticity" by saying they have real tier 1 input into the game but honestly I dont know any military adviser whom would say that Sweden and Norway are in the TOP tier 1 nations listing...France, Israel, South Africa (in terms of Africa) would be much more global and real.… Expand

    I thought the game was pretty cool. The singleplayer was playing through the first time. Once the first impact wears off and you play it again the game mechanics which are not great will be more clear and ruin the immersion. But overall singleplayer was fun, much more real feeling then COD Black Ops 2.

    Multiplayer - why do I get the feeling im playing a walking billboard. 1. It felt that the only reason some of the guns and equipment was in the game cause it was sponsored by the manufacturers. I can see where they wanted to go with it but what they ended with is very average.
    2. Too Hard to kill people - decrease health
    3. Map felt boring, they dont have to be on the locations in the game, do some fun maps that have nothing to do with the campaign. 4. Menu system - massive fail, to the point it actually impedes the enjoyment of mulitplayer
    5. dont be lazy and have 5 character skins. More diversity in each nation. (weapons and look)
    6. 3x magnifier - fail

I would be the first to say no. Surprisingly, "warfighter" is an actual term which pertains to any person responsible for making decisions which results in the use of military force. Could've fooled me. Anywho, MOH: Warfighter is a direct sequel to the 2010 reboot of the once-popular series. With that release, developers Danger Close and DICE (of "Battlefield" fame) had summoned a predictable first-person shooter in the vein of "Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare". Unfortuantely, it had none of the panache of Infinity Ward's superior product. But the game was a surprise hit and EA Games began to develop a sequel. The result is this by-the-numbers shooter which still plays much like "Call of Duty". Thankfully, it is a better effort than the 2010 game. Danger Close developed both the campaign and multiplayer online modes for "Warfighter", and while the game still isn't great, it's a decent one.

    If you played the first game, than you'll certainly notice the increase in quality. While the campaign plays much like any other COD game, it's got two great vehicle segments. And the enemy A.I. isn't as dumb as it was in the 2010 offering. The gimmick of breaching doors is overused and pointless and the cinematic segments may be yawn-inducing for some. But I found the campaign to be mildly entertaining. It's only six hours long and a second playthrough isn't justified, but it's fun (for the most part) and tells a decent story. Multiplayer has also been improved. It's been extensively expanded upon which is good since the 2010 title included only a bare-bones version of "Battlefield". The online game still feels more like BF than COD minus the vehicles and good graphics, but fans of the genre could do worse. There are six modes and six differerent character classes which help bring some nice variety to the matches. Also, the gun customization options are fun to play with. However, the sound effects of the weapons are much more dynamic in DICE's games and the lack of innovation will disappoint some. Overall, this title is worth about half of its initial price (maybe even a little less). EA Games recently cancelled the series which maybe a good thing. But if you're bored of "Black Ops II" and can't wait until "Battlefield 4" shows up, than "Warfighter" is a decent way to kill a few hours.    … Expand

If you want something that is a bit more edgy and realistic that CoD (which, in my view, is clearly inferior to this game), but not so much as ArmA, then you could do a lot worse than picking up MoH:WF. The real shame is that now the critics have done there dirty work we aren't going to get a sequel.… Expand

    Every once in a while Danger Close breaks the endless mould of duck & cover gameplay by letting you mark a building for an air strike, chase down an informant or provide sniper support. But even these sequences repeat themselves multiple times throughout the game. [December 2012, p.68]
