Electronic Arts has announced today that they're sending out the second wave of invitations to join the Medal of Honor beta for PC and PS3. If you signed up at the EA Gun Club site, you should probably start checking your inbox to see if you've been accepted into the fun.
What if you're an Xbox 360 user who has been waiting patiently for the last two weeks while other people were able to have a great time killing one another? Keep waiting. There's still no update on when the 360 beta will be opening up, but EA assures us that they're working on getting it out there.
I played a round of this at E3 and, while I sometimes have a hard time telling one military-themed shooter from another, I had a good time with it. Who's been playing? Any impressions you'd like to share with the class?

But honestly with the latest patch to Bad Company 2, which ironed out most of the games remaining issues (still waiting on FOV, teamscramble and Bloom fix), there's really no season to play medal of honor instead, as MOH is just the same game, but with less.
Well, close enough I suppose. :-)

Proof that Medal of Honor 2010 will be an absolute failure: Even game journos confuse it with Call of Duty/Modern Warfare!
I also fucking LOVE Battlefield, the old ones, the new ones, ALL OF THEM!
So I'm pretty stoked to try this out - suppose I should sign up for the EA Gun Club.
Haven't be able to redeem it.
I've RECIEVED A BETA CODE, LEGIT STILE FROM EA.
Can't Redeem it.
Apparently, I don't meet the requirements to log on to the website, EVEN THOUGH I'M ALREADY LOGGED ON BEFORE I HIT THE LINKS TO REDEEM MY BETA CODE. WHICH I CAN'T.
What the hell has been going on the past few weeks?
insightful observations, my good man.
I wish there was a little more variety in the classes and unlocks though. It seems like everything could be unlocked in a very short amount of time.
Also, the sniper starting with a red dot sight instead of a scope is almost as dumb as a medic not starting with defibrillator paddles.
It's clearly EA's answer to Call of Duty. While not as team-focused as I'd like, it could still change (where are squads??), the fact that many of the perks benefit your teammates is something I really like. Anyways I'm going to keep playing.
I diddnt sign up for the Gun club but was signed up for MoH Newsletter and got it though their.
I really enjoy it so far. The pacing is perfect. Canit wait to see more maps, modes and Singleplayer.
