Medal Of Honor: Warfighter, avance - ABC.es

Two years have passed since Electronic Arts decided to relaunch the saga Medal Of Honor, that once face to face competing with Call Of Duty in the nonsense genre of the second world war-based shooters. However, the return of the franchise ended up not being as good as expected and therefore now returning to try again with Medal Of Honor: Warfighter.

Your argument will take the player to the international Tier 1 elite team of the best soldiers from different countries of the world. Throughout the game, we will travel throughout the world reviving current terrorist attacks at the hands of teams such as the American Seals, UK SAS or the Spetsgruppa Russians, among others.

Warfighter will be fully developed by Danger Close Games, unlike the previous installment which multiplayer mode was designed separately by says. To do this, the development team has been reinforced with dicefrom industry veterans, creators of Battlefield 3, or Treyarch, developers of Call Of Duty: Back Ops, among others. Also come with the added power of Frostbite 2.0, the graphic engine that makes possible the spectacular graphics of latest consignment of Battlefield.

The stark reality

Danger Close Games wants to offer an experience as close as possible to the soldiers they live real and so have an argument written by a Tier 1 real soldier. Warfighter seeks to be a close look and staff in the fight against the global terrorist threat, where the player can experience events such as the rescue of hostages in the Philippines or the threat of pirates off the Somali coast.

According to Greg Goodrich, producer of the title, ' everything there is in the game: each mission, each event, each place which we are going to have a storyline with something that happened in reality. " "When the players go to Internet and search in Google about these places you will find all the data from all what happened to the good people that lived there".

Danger Close Games developers want to show the war in the most crude way, showing the player the chaos that is found in the middle of a shootout, and so neglected the graphics engine UnrealEngine to make way for the one used in Battlefield 3. «How Believest it would be hidden somewhere full of trees, mud and water shooting?» wondered Goodrich, and adds: "would be a real disaster, it would be dirty and grotesque.» «Therefore we wanted to reflect that with an engine that allows us to show constant splashes of water, the intensity of the cross-fire and the pressure to see how everything falls on you».
