.Map :: MoHAA Mapping

My expectations for call of Duty are extremely high. It looks brilliant, and has everything I could hope for in a World War 2 shooter. I hope Infinity Ward can pull it off.

However, having recently played through Medal of Honor Allied Assault for what seems like the 100th time. Even though I can?t play multiplayer (I get disconnected about 2 minutes after I join a game for some reason) Allied Assault is still my favourite game in my collection. That is quite an achievement for Allied Assault; that I rate it better than Half-Life, Counter Strike, Unreal Tournament, Unreal Tournament 2003, Quake 3, Unreal, Star Trek: Elite Force 2, Aliens Vs. Predators 2 and other great shooters.

So I am a bit stuck. Which game should I map for? I immediately ruled out mapping for both; I haven?t the time. So I organised myself for once. I wrote out a Pros/Cons list for each game. Here it is:

Medal Of Honor Series

PROS
Medal Of Honor has been my favourite game 1? years.
Promising sequel ? Pacific Assault
Second expansion - Breakthrough

CONS
Spearhead was a disappointment
Poor mod support
2015 have left

Call of Duty

PROS
AI looks to be amazing
Made by 22 ex-members of 2015
Probably will have better mod support

CONS
Not compatible with MOH Radiant or any other Radiant
May not be as good as expected

-----------------------------------

So why have I just told you all this? Because I need you to help me decide. I know it is my decision, but I want to see which game you will mod/map for. I know Call of Duty will be amazing, and the obvious choice, but Medal of Honor has a special place in my heart computer.

So what game will you mod/map for? I predict most people will leave MOH and map for Call of Duty, then switch back when Pacific Assault is released.

whichever has better tools and support and graphix, i'll.

Same here. But the game looks a lot like DOD.
And I REALLY REALLY hope the FPS is not going to be a problem in big maps. That way we wont have to worry about vis leaf group. I still dont understand it.

wow, thats a large image...

I will try stick to both, especially when there's an expansion and a sequel on its way, i love mohaa and the way it is (not a big SH fan) so therefor it will be interesting to see what EA has up its sleeve... (if they got any )
But CoD will be the intersting challange for me because im a new mapper and it will be cool to start from the beginning on something new, like everyone else! (except for the mapper Vet's out there)

im ditchin mohaa and then goin for CoD!

I cant vote since I havent played CoD yet...

its not out.... COD

Yea...thats why I havent played it

i wonder how the ai is gonna be. i hate how they flinch in mohaa all extra long nobody flinches like that in real life.

I think maybe I'll map for Half-Life 2. I like the WW2 theme but if the HL2 engine is only a fraction of what it looks like, I would want to use it. Besides, Maybe there will be a WW2 mod for HL2. Valve seems to support Moding of there products so I wouldn't be surprised
