Complete List of Medal of Honor Multiplayer Beta Changes Revealed

[shane]

 

Medal of Honor’s multiplayer component debuted earlier this year in a public closed beta to a very mixed response from those who played it.

 

Some gamers thought it was incredibly enjoyable and provided just enough new twists on the team deathmatch formula to continue to be fun, while others didn’t think much of it at all, going as far as to say it was a mix between Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2, while bringing nothing new to the table.

 

Regardless, development on Medal of Honor multiplayer has continued at DICE since the beta closed, however, and the team responsible for bringing the game’s online competitive mode to market has taken the extensive feedback it received during the beta and made many changes and tweaks to the way this mode plays.

 

A few moments ago, an overtly healthy (obese even) changelog list appeared on the Medal of Honor blog featuring every single change made to Medal of Honor multiplayer since the release of the beta, until now.
