Medal of Honor Spearhead Hard: The Ordeal Continues

Oh yes brother! Already 15 years old that video. It's insane.

[@Viper-jr4sp]

Yes he did it again! next is breakthrough which imo is gonna be fun and hey i made it in the video thank you for doing this for all of us Sour :)

[@KhanWolf95]

Breakthrough is gonna make him tilted hard.

[@Viper-jr4sp]

@@KhanWolf95 Oh i believe it he will the first two missions he MIGHT be fine on but once he gets to Bizerte it'll get stupid but the moment im waiting the most is the mission Gela with the Mortar part even now even i still struggle on it

I also made it into the video 😄 and indeed Breakthrough will be next, nostalgia overload!

@@Viper-jr4sp Mount Battaglia at the end with the radio tower, sniping enemies. PAIN

[@Viper-jr4sp]

@KhanWolf95 oh man even on normal it was a pain I think I ended up leaning right up against the table with the radio for cover it somewhat worked I’m currently doing breakthrough on hard and I’ll be honest I am quick saving quite a few times it genuinely gets annoying for me especially with the lack of ammo

[@mihaidescas4642]

I played and loved Medal of Honor Allied Assault and it's expansions as a kid, seeing it get attention nowadays warms my heart. Thank you for making these videos. Edit: Corrected a writing mistake, also wanted to say, brace for Breakthrough, it's rough

[@Dr.Jibbles]

I remember lack of ammo drops being a big problem in Breakthrough, had to redo sections not from lack of health but because I used too much ammo and didn't have enough to continue. 🙈

[@4T3hM4kr0n]

thats what I thought at first but when I played through it several more times a few years ago I found out that it wasn't that really hard to conserve ammo since the time to kill has been improved (firing bursts from the SMG's kill enemies more rapidly than holding down the trigger)

[@rycroft2557]

Oh god the motar mission on the breakthrough dlc on the hardest difficultly is going to be real interesting to watch when he gets there......

[@Viper-jr4sp]

Man i used to get so mad at that when i was a kid even my older brother had issues with it took me years to finally finish it and boy did it feel good finishing i was 4-5 when i played it i finished it when i was 14-15 so yeah long time

[@rycroft2557]

@Viper-jr4sp I'm pretty sure when I was younger I beat it through dumb luck right when I was about to fail. I went back recently thinking "yeah im a veteran gamer I'll beat this mission no issues" it still took me a few tries even on normal difficulty.

[@4T3hM4kr0n]

@@rycroft2557it's actually quite simple, some of the tanks move slower than the others so if you know which ones are slow and which ones are fast you can juggle between targets with the mortars and the bazooka that you have (there's that giant box filled with rocket ammo up there too)

[@everythingsalright1121]

@@4T3hM4kr0n theres not enough bazooka ammo to kill all the tanks with it. And the lack of range indicator on the mortar is awful. Plus the bazooka projectiles veer off after traveling too far... Breakthrough is sooo painful i swear. Holdout in spearhead is like the worst part for me but breakthrough...between the mortar defense and monte cassino...hoo boy i predict many editing cuts of frustration

[@rycroft2557]

​@4T3hM4kr0n I used the bazooka as a sort of panic piece in case a tank got too close. The lack of mortar aiming reticle is rough which i kinda got around by just spamming it and seeing where things landed. He should have an interesting time because the mission before is that airfield stealth mission with the DeLisle carbine that's calm and then just chaos with tanks that'll one shot on hardest difficultly in the next mission. Should be a fun watch.

[@RoFKillaBacon]

Let's go! The MOH must continue and I'm so happy to see rising sun on your list, that's the only game I truly remember being so much better than it actually is, I remember super lush jungle and scary Japanese soldiers.

[@ZoltanMarossy]

Dude every time they bonzai charged you....wild haha

[@ThePovarPower]

Rising Sun 's Pearl Harbor mission was one of the greatest opening missions of all time and definitely greatest depiction of that attack in gaming (IMHO, of course)

[@Jase_]

I’m so excited for him to get to frontline and rising sun. Big part of my childhood in those games

[@Dani-xz1uw]

Breakthrough has a couple of lovely sections that resemble the original game a bit more. Unfortunately, some of the difficulty in that game comes from enemies NOT dropping ammo on later levels which feels kinda scummy from the developers, but it should be a fun ride.

[@obiwanbul]

Oh, yeah. Breakthrough is really the INSANE one. Just a tip to remember - Italian SMG, nuff said. Spearhead did feature some nice monologues that added flavor to the main character, strange that the end-mission monologues didn't play. Also, weird that you never noticed that you can Melee with regular weapons now. :D

[@everythingsalright1121]

Breakthrough is easier in some spots but worse than spearhead in others IMO, and spearhead is really awful in some areas like the rail shooter section and the holdout section in the battle of the bulge

[@Mildcat743]

To this day I haven't beaten that one house defense mission in Italy on Hard.

[@obiwanbul]

@@everythingsalright1121 that rail shooter section in Breakthrough (Monte Casino) is arguably worse. I was using quicksaves and it still pissed me off so much I rage quit the game for almost a week.

[@everythingsalright1121]

@@Mildcat743 its rouuuugh. I dont blame you

[@donradkos6655]

Beretta made a really excellent SMG, but in real life they were held back by shoddy quality magazines. If you had a good mag it was great, if not it was a carousel of failures to feed

[@Versatilty]

Always gotta love the random surprise S0ur drop ❤

[@beeflord281]

Can't wait to see how this goes these older games are stupid hard

[@superfriends-sammy]

I think Breakthrough is longer, or it felt longer as a kid cause I sucked.

[@MrJrv1993]

I loved Spearhead, but get ready for Breakthrough. It will make you lose your mind. It was hard even on easy.

[@blaise1016]

Its crazy how much nostalgia the song in the beginning of this video gives me. I am fighting back tears lmao the goose bumps and dopamine rush is crazy.

[@Vscojen]

You should play Brothers in Arms, your teammates will probably make your game easier...or harder

[@yesicanhearu]

You should try brothers in arms series it’s really good because it requires some strategy and the character development is good

[@Jonny-boy5613]

You wont survive frontline on hard😩

Do you plan on playing Medal of Honor 2010? Edit - 53:39 had me laughing so much.

i remember playing this game when i was a kid and i died a lot but i set the difficulty at easy i was bad

[@trevordoeseverything219]

Little did you know the pistol boss was the GOLD Medalist pistol marksman in the Olympics. Apparently XD

[@CLIXZZ]

Loved Medal of Honor AA and it's expansions as a kid i still play them today many years later and you making this video really makes me happy that this game still gets the love it needed. i hope you do the rest of the MOH games.

[@martonpapp269]

Breakthrough is hard because there is no ammo in that game! Like seriously watch out for that when playing.

[@Soundwaves329]

Also spearhead was developed by the franchise creator’s, where as breakthrough was done by a studio that, would work on multiplayer for the next PC MOH, and they would close doors after that.

[@NabilBr0]

42:42 "Well goodbye then" 🤣🤣🤣

[@Headbanger203]

I remember breakthrough being difficult, there's a vehicle section that is a pain but it's been years since I played it and this is making me want to go back. Any chance you'll tackle Airborne? That game was a gem.

[@peytonbedwell9883]

Airborne easily the best Medal of Honer title thats comes to my mind and nothing else even sniffs it, its a one of its kind

[@Peter97ptr]

I don't know how you did it, but the render range you had during your game was ridiculous. Normally it is much larger. Browsing through tasks using the TAB key also gives you a good overview of the situation, and some of the hints are only provided in dialogues, not suddenly hanging somewhere on the screen like in CoD.

[@shawnhouck6831]

you should play the brothers in arms games when you're done with this series

Hey, you ever played Hidden and Dangerous 2? I don't think any KZbinr with more than 1k subs has made videos about it :L

Ah yes. Vehicle missions in expansions are very unfair if we compare it to main game (with exception of T-34). Also I think Spearhead would be more fun if it didn't had scripted moments like that "boss" fight with officer.

[@ThommyofThenn]

Just starting, haven't played this in ages. I recall Spearhead being a lot of epic fun. Breakthrough had some climactic battles but I recall having the worst bugs i ever experienced with a MOH game in that expansion

[@e_z__r_a]

The MOH games were such a big part of my childhood, I remember playing tons of splitscreen co-op with my brother on the PS2. Almost every game had something to do in local multiplayer, especially Rising Sun. If you have some extra time in your video covering that game, I really hope you'll try out fighting against bots on one of the multiplayer maps. There's this one bot that you're able to select, Bromley if I remember correctly, and he made winning very difficult

[@Malpaise_Legate]

Spearhead is easily the weakest of the two Allied Assault expansion packs. I suspect, if the development wasn't synchronized, that the team working on the expansion packs learned from some mistakes made in Spearhead. Breakthrough is a MUCH better experience, both gameplay wise and cinematically.

[@AwesomeRepix]

Now it gets a little harder. Breakthrough however.. Now that's where things get interesting. I'm a veteran of this game for more than 16 years now, playing multiplayer very often, but if one game can destroy me? It would be Breakthrough. Gawd, dang it! The lack of ammo drops and extremely frustrating combat sections. Still makes it the least favorite Expansion of many people, including me. Only good things it has going for it is the Carcano Rifle and the amazing sound effect for it and of course the historical setpieces.

[@AwesomeRepix]

And of course the awesome MP maps, like Bologna and Tunisia

[@drumline17]

I think a lot of the nostalgia for spearhead comes from the multi-player, I know it had a strong online community for like 10 years. Cuz yeah that single player wasn't anything too special lol

[@TheLaLeeee]

26:30 That on-rails section almost made me cry as a kid it was so hard. I guess I didn't even think about restarting the mission and really wanted to force my way through with low health. I don't know how but I did make it through after 20+ tries.

[@steveg3262]

I miss this game so much. This is the stuff I would pay the bigs bucks for. No weird add ons, no paywalls, no pop ups, just old style fun.

[@LeeryGiant4149]

The on-rails halftrack and the "lose the line because one guy who died instantly got across" parts were easily some of the most frustrating experiences I ever had. And yeah Spearhead is easier than the base game and Breakthrough. It was really just those two parts that really stand out, and the last section in the tank.

[@darkkiller3330]
