i hope they bring back MOH:AA gameplay, if you look at game leagues like www.clanbase.com MOH:AA is one of the most popular games and has even taken over CS in this years Cup sign ups, MOH:SH and MOH:BT failed badley so i hope EA learn from there mistakes

I don't think Spearhead failed badly, just because it has fewer ladders (In N America, it has more ladders and the ladders are more active). It has almost as many servers and active players on line (according to my unscientific survey using ASE) as AA -- not bad for an expansion pack. Breakthrough failed to offer enough significant capabilities to convince people to buy it. But Spearhead has some nice features (smoke grenades, auto TK kicker built in, etc) to make it worthwhile for a lot of people. My main complaint with Spearhead is that its a resource hog.

I don't understand what you mean by bringing back MOH:AA gameplay. Other than many servers turning off leaning while running, I really don't see how AA had different game play than SH.

i don't know how to put this exactly but in terms of gameplay, MOHAA has a more authentic/realistic feel to it... Spearhead feels a bit more arcadey because of the variation in speed and graphic textures but i don't see this as a bad thing; obviously, it's screaming popularity is testimony to it's success and to how critical a perfect balance between arcade/simulation is in order to have a successful FPS, especially one of the likes of Medal of Honor which deals with the true-life events of WWII

anyway, i know one thing for sure that i like about SH/BT is the ability to bash/butt with most of your weapons (minus sniper rifle/bazooka of course)... unfortunately, AA was lacking this feature which i find very useful and enjoyable to use; but i could care less for smoke bombs though :D

Oh, you can bash in MOHPA. Their still working on the ragdoll effects from bashing.

Seems when you bash someone right now they fly a little farther then they should

my point is.... is that moh:aa has a superior feel of gameplay to spearhead, i do play spearhead, but do not enjoy it half as much as i enjoy mohaa.

moh:aa is also so active and it has no support from EA, so people either play it cos its easy to cheat :p or cos they throughly enjoy it as i do.

I deliberately deleted the content of this post. If you persist in blasting blatent advertising in the middle of other people's discussion, then let's just say suicide is an appropriate nick - as you won't be very 'live' in this forum. I have no problem with people pushing their services that are MOH related - but don't just dump your advertising in other people's threads. I prefer you use the Server Announcement forum (or the off topic BS forum) for advertising purposes. At a minimum, start your own thread - don't just side track someone else's discussion.
