32 player online in the next Medal Of Honor On Wii! - Jul 19, 2007 10:41
From IGN

http://au.wii.ign.com/articles/805/805730p1.aspx



Electronic Arts on Tuesday officially announced Medal of Honor Heroes 2 for Nintendo' s Wii console.....

Heroes 2 will support a massive multiplayer entry compatible with up to 32 players online. According to EA, players will be able to jump in and out of multiplayer matches at any time.

On top of everything else, the Wii build of Heroes 2 includes a couple of exclusives. The first is a new mode specifically built for the console in which the action unfolds via an on-rails-style setup, enabling gamers to focus more on gunning and less on running. The second is full support of the upcoming Wii Zapper.



Wiis online is slowly but surely getting there. Still 8 months too late if you ask me but better late then never

CoD makes any and all MoH games irrelevant at this point.

Exactly. If the Wii had CoD 4 with 360/ps3 graphics it would be awesome. Instead it has Medal of Honor, the mildly retarded cousin of CoD. CoD with a regular controller is far greater than any Medal of Honor, even when it has a " zapper"

Sorry, but after playing MoH nonstop for around 12 hours straight, just hearing the games name makes me want to puke [:' (]

Holy mother***ing shit! 32 players??? That' s more than 4!!!

Remember guys, nobody wanted another Call of Duty before CoD2 was released (besides, I' ll just get CoD4 with the Xbox 360). I' ve got mixed feelings about this.

Just because a game isn' t THE best it can still be an awesome game.
For example, the greatness of Virtua Fighter doesn' t make Tekken any less fun to play.
32-player online is good news.
Too bad it' s a WWII FPS though, I hate those. I' d like to see a Wii version of Rainbow Six or GRAW with the zapper.

This one is on-rails, and specifically designed for the Wii. We shouldn' t use Vanguard as a point of reference for this title. I' m actually looking forward to this one.

It seems EA really did mean it when they said that they would support the Wii.

I thought the on-rails bit was just an extra Wii-exclusive mode? I hope it is, because we are already getting Ghost Squad and Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles (and the on-rails Dragon Quest game for the Wii, which I am not interested in at all at the moment).

I still can' t get my head around the whole " 32 players" thing. Amazing!

Just imagine how Reggie must be feeling right now.

I doubt it' s completely on-rails I mean... 32 player online... on-rails...? Doesn' t make sense.

Wikipedia


The traditional single player campaign is back Along with a 32-player online, continuous-joining multi player mode for both systems. The Wii version also features full support of the Wii Zapper, allowing for more immersive gameplay.

The Wii version will also feature a mode where the game is played on-rails, the game will move for the player, who only needs to shoot and achieve objectives. It has been described as being a pick-up-and-play mode for players of any skill level.


Just like I said, the on-rails portion is just an extra. According to Wikipedia anyway (and people usually just put accurate information up there).

He' s feeling like he needs to take off his wallet so WiiFit doesn' t find him obese.

You' d rather have a free-roamer with p1$$-poor controls?

I' m just happy that 32 player online is possible on the Wii. After Metroid went single player only i wasn' t expecting any good news on the online front for a while. I am completely surprised at this announcement, but at the same time shocked that Nintendo hasn' t got a game that takes advantage of this (Which many though Metroid would be).

Realistically you' re going to be looking at a plethora of matches in the upper-teens range. Getting 24 people in the same lobby is rare enough, no less 32.
