DynaMic HuD

To achieve an immersive gameplay experience, the in-game HUD is kept to the bare minimum

amount of data needed. Activate the Dynamic HUD to view the location of your allies, the objective,

and your current ammo counts.

SliDing

When sprinting toward cover in the single player campaign, select CHANGE STANCE to slide. Sliding

allows you to quickly reach cover and return to an attack position. When you have completed your

slide, you assume a crouching position. Select and hold CHANGE STANCE to slide to a prone position.

peek & lean

Peek & Lean allows you in Single Player mode to take cover behind objects and lean out to fire on

enemy positions when playing in the campaign.

requeSt aMMo

If you find yourself running low on ammo, request more from your allies. Squad members with

similar weapons pass you additional ammo. The bullet icon above an ally’s head shows how many

times they can resupply you during a level. Allies won’t give you ammo if they are pinned down or

under attack.

Over two million soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines wear the uniform. Within these ranks and

operating under the National Command Authority (NCA), a highly specialized group of select warriors

is called upon when the mission must not fail. These men are the Tier 1 Operators. They function

on a plane of existence above and beyond even the most highly trained Special Operations Forces.

Their exact numbers, while classified, hover in the low hundreds. They are living, breathing precision

instruments of war. They are experts in the application of violence. The new Medal of Honor ™

allows you to step into the boots of these warriors and apply their unique skill set against a new

enemy in the unforgiving and hostile battlefield conditions of Afghanistan.

deep behind enemy lines and performing precision strikes against high-value targets and securing

positions in enemy-held territory. In other missions, you are the sledgehammer where experience

the battlefield as an Army Ranger in direct-action missions.

As the campaign progresses, you engage in sniping battles, race across the Afghanistan plains on an

ATV, and obliterate enemy camps from the cockpit of an AH-64 Apache attack helicopter.

Saving & loaDing

While playing Medal of Honor, your progress is automatically saved via a number of mid-mission

tier 1

Tier 1 is a competitive, online-only, single player mode. In Tier 1, replay Campaign levels with an eye

toward posting the best time and getting the most skill kills. Adding to the challenge in Tier 1, difficulty

is increased and there are no mid-level checkpoints—if you die you must begin the level over.

Playing times and stats are tracked and posted to online leaderboards so that you can compare your

performance with friends and other players from around the world. Markers inside the levels show

your friends’ progress. Interact with a marker to send your friend a message and let them know you

have passed them. Put your skills on display and show your friends who is the most elite of the elite.

Skill killS

The goal of Tier 1 is to beat a level in the shortest time possible. Getting skill kills temporarily freezes

the clock to help you improve your time.

A headshot freezes the timer for two seconds. 

Three headshots in a row freezes the timer for five seconds. 

A melee kill freezes the timer for two seconds. 

Three melee kills within 10 seconds freezes the timer for six seconds.

Killing two enemies with a single bullet freezes the timer for six seconds. 

Killing five enemies within 15 seconds freezes the timer for five seconds. 

Difficulty in tier 1

Difficulty in Tier 1 simulates the most extreme playing conditions possible. Health regenerates at

a slower rate, you can no longer resupply your ammo from allies, and the Snap to Target feature

and your weapon’s crosshairs are deactivated. Enemies also have the ability to deliver increased

damage. If you die in the middle of a level, you must start over again from the beginning since

mid-level checkpoints are disabled. Additionally, all HUD elements—except objectives and friendly

names—are disabled.

Before you can play a stage in Tier 1, you must complete it in the normal campaign.

WeaponS

Every weapon in Medal of Honor has its pros and cons. Sniper rifles are great at long range, but not

as effective up close. Shotguns are excellent in close quarters, but suffer a loss of accuracy at range.

Selecting an appropriate weapon is perhaps the first step in forming a strategy for conquering OPFOR.

While playing through the online component of Medal of Honor, you earn several new weapons and

accessories, including silencers, scopes, and custom ammo. Adjust your gear on the Change Gear

screen and customize your weapon to fit your style of play.

ScorecHainS & Support actionS

You can gain points by shooting other players or by performing certain in-game actions. Once you

begin earning points, the scorechain begins. A scorechain builds as long as you remain alive, but is

cancelled when you die. At certain intervals, you receive Support Actions.

Support Actions are extra military assets that you can use against the opposition, such as artillery or

better ammunition. If you die while you have a Support Action that has not yet been activated, you

may use it when you respawn. If you want to gain a different Support Action, you must rebuild your

scorechain to the necessary level. A meter in the lower right hand corner of the screen displays the

current level of your scorechain and the requirement for the next level.

claSSeS & experience

You can choose one of three classes to play when taking Medal of Honor online. Each class has its

own unique appearance and requires a certain style of play, allowing you to fulfill necessary roles

on the battlefield. You can also select and customize the weapons that the classes use, adjusting its

strengths in your favor. The coalition forces and the Opposing Force (OPFOR) utilize the same classes.

The Rifleman is the basic fighter class. They tend to be frontline combatants, leading the charge

toward OPFOR positions and being the backbone of the armed forces. Riflemen generally use assault

rifles and machine guns, with smoke grenades as an accessory.

Special Ops are close-quarters combat experts. They use submachine guns or shotguns, and keep

a rocket launcher ready for high explosive sabotage. Sneaking behind OPFOR lines and cutting off

supply routes or waiting to ambush are two key strategies for Special Ops.

Snipers are best when taking up positions behind the main line and taking out OPFOR from afar. While

they can plant and detonate explosives, their primary function is long-range crowd control. Snipers need

to take precautions to keep safe when in combat, since looking down a scope limits their field of view.

You gain experience for their chosen class by performing actions that result in Score on the field

of battle. Score is gained by accomplishing mission goals. Leveling up unlocks new weapons and

extras. Each class levels separately from the other classes, so if you wish to gain access to new

weapons or abilities for a class, you must play as that class to earn experience. The level of your

class is independent of your faction. If you are a level 7 Rifleman when playing as an OPFOR, you are

a level 7 Rifleman when playing as a coalition soldier.

riBBonS & MeDalS

Your level is only one way that your performance and progress are tracked in Medal of Honor.

Ribbons and medals serve as a record of your milestones in a single match or over the course of

your career. Ribbons are awards for specific feats and can be received multiple times. Medals are

awards that are tracked over your multiplayer career that mark significant milestones, such as

reaching 100 kills or completing 100 objectives. The medals and ribbons you earn during a round

are summarized after that round.

teaM aSSault

overvieW

Team Assault is a team-based combat mode. The two teams struggle to reach a certain number of

points to win the match. Each kill is counted, so take down OPFOR to increase the team’s points.

ruleS

Team Assault is a 12-on-12 no-holds-barred battle on a confined area of a map. The two teams are

fighting for kills and points.

This is by far the most direct of the game modes. Players instantly respawn and return to battle. The

in-game map shows the position of friendly players and ammo crates. After one complete match,

the map cycles to the next one in the playlist.

oBJective raiD

overvieW

In Objective Raid, OPFOR swarms across a map to sabotage two objectives using improvised

explosive devices (IEDs). Coalition forces must stop them and defend their installations. OPFOR has a

limited amount of time to accomplish their objective.

ruleS

Objective Raid pits coalition forces against OPFOR once again. This time, coalition forces are dug in

around two objectives and must defend the area from the incoming OPFOR. The two objectives can

be taken in either order, forcing the coalition forces to stay on guard constantly while OPFOR forces

their way to the objectives.

While players score points for attacking as usual, those points do not count toward the team’s score.

These points will be displayed at the end of a round, but they are not used to calculate the winning

team. If OPFOR manages to clear both objectives before time is up, they are the victors. If the

coalition forces successfully defend the points and outlast the OPFOR, then they are the winners.

Sector control

overvieW

Sector Control forces two sides to fight for possession of three objectives. These objectives are

represented by flags. Holding an objective accumulates points. The more objectives you hold, the

faster your points accrue. The first team to achieve a preset score wins.

ruleS

On each Sector Control map are three objectives. These objectives begin in a neutral state, with

either team able to secure them. Stand close to an objective to capture it. The more friendly units

there are in the area, the faster the capturing process goes. After a point is captured, the team

scores points over time. Points can be lost and recaptured as the match goes on.

MapS

HelManD valley

Playlists: Combat Mission

Python 1 has been tasked to break through the southern province of Helmand in search of

intelligence and weapon caches. Several anti-aircraft emplacements in the area deny the coalition

air superiority, which complicates the situation. The experienced operators of Python 1 prepare,

knowing the area is infested with OPFOR fighters. As they start down along the stream they detect

rapid movement in the distant brushes.

The coalition forces must fight their way through the valley, clearing out several OPFOR strongholds

and bunker systems to finally allow a wing of F18 Hornets to deliver their deadly payload on target.

support action

Medal of Honor offers several multiplayer gameplay modes that support up to 24 players for

12-on-12 combat. Each mode is accessible via pre-programmed playlists. Playlists can be

composed of several gameplay modes, which are cycled randomly in online matches, or one

single mode.

If there are not enough players present on a server, the match begins with a preround. This

gives players a chance to get a brief preview of the map. No points are tracked in the preround,

though players can move and shoot. The preround continues until the minimum number of players

necessary to begin the game joins the match.

After the preround is complete, or if no preround is needed, players proceed to the warm-up. While

warming up, players can select their load-out and get ready to go into combat. Players are frozen in

place until the match is ready to begin. After a brief countdown, the players unfreeze and are able to

begin the battle.

While playing, if the number of players drops below the minimum threshold, the match returns to the

preround to give other players a chance to join and repopulate the match. This ensures that every

server is appropriately populated for combat.

coMBat MiSSion

overvieW

Coalition forces must clear five consecutive objectives to win. OPFOR serves as the opposing force

and are going to stop the coalition forces at any cost. Clearing objectives unlocks new areas of the

map, which then reveals what the next objective of the coalition forces is.

ruleS

Combat Mission is played on three different maps, with five objectives per map. Objectives vary from

match to match and map to map. Players secure downed choppers, eliminate mortar stations, and

perform other story-based actions.

In Combat Mission, the coalition forces start out as attackers and OPFOR as defenders. After each

round, the sides switch, allowing both teams to have a chance to be on the offensive.

The Team Health meter represents the remaining coalition reinforcements. If the Team Health meter

is depleted before the current objective is cleared, the match ends and the coalition forces are

stopped in their tracks. When completing objectives, coalition forces gain some Team Health. If the

coalition forces complete all five objectives, they claim victory.

MaZar-i-SHarif airfielD

Playlists: Combat Mission

Coalition forces are preparing to assault the northern airfield of Mazar-i-Sharif. OPFOR fighters have

set up a strong defensive perimeter among wrecks of Russian tanks and airplanes. INTEL indications

that a High Value Target is hiding somewhere by the airstrip makes the need for surgical precision

all the more crucial. Python 1 prepares to enter what looks like a graveyard.

Coalition forces must first gain entry to the airfield by destroying a barricade and then fight their way

through hangars and wrecks before they can reach the air tower at the end of the airstrip. Along the

way OPFOR marksmen have dug in deep to wait for the attackers.

SHaHikHot MountainS

Playlists: Combat Mission

A Chinook helicopter has crashed somewhere in the Shahikhot mountains. These snow covered

mountain peaks, called The Place of the King (in the local tongue) has been a rebel hiding place

since ancient times. Python 1 is inserted to investigate and look for survivors in these eerie

surroundings. As they embark from their helicopter they hear the first crackling sound of a sniper

rifle roll between the steep mountain sides.

A strong OPFOR pres ence in the area leaves the coalition forces stranded. They must fight their

way up the mountains, past ammo caches and mortar stations, to clear any hostile anti-aircraft

emplacements to allow evacuation from the area.
