Medal of Honor Spearhead Hard: The Ordeal Continues
Ойындар
Allied Assault continues with its first expansion: Spearhead. Once again, on Hard, no quicksaves. I was informed the expansions could be even harder than the base game... although perhaps the far greater struggle awaits in Breakthrough.
Edited full game commentary playthrough.

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

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)
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.

@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.
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.
Can't wait to see how this goes these older games are stupid hard
THIS WAS THE IRST FPS GAME I EVER PLAYED when I was 4 y/o. on my dads Windows XP family computer. Bro. This brought back so many memories from my early childhood! I love this series!!
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

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

This was so funny to watch! Love your playthroughs of these old gems.
I found your channel from your Cod1 playthrough and have watched all your old cod videos now. My grandpa had cod1 and Medal of Honor on his pc when I was growing up and I’d spend the night playing those games with him and watching the history channel, it’s what turned me into a ww2 nerd like him. It’s so much fun to watch someone play through games that were so important to my childhood. Thanks for keeping these videos up and keeping the classics alive!
This was amazing! Loving this retro series. This hour absolutely flew by!! Looking forward to future entries.
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.
S0ur, great videos for sure. I love that you're going through Medal of Honor. It seems like it's a forgotten series nowadays when I tell friends about it. By far the hardest of the set, for me anyways.. Keep it up. Can't wait to see more.
These where my childhood along side the early cods. I still come back to them every few years to play through them.
Little did you know the pistol boss was the GOLD Medalist pistol marksman in the Olympics. Apparently XD
FINALLY! Very excited for this!
I think Breakthrough is longer, or it felt longer as a kid cause I sucked.
This channel is my new favorite I love seeing him play games I never got the chance to play it’s really fun
Loving these vids! I used to play competitive MOHAA:SH when I was younger - there was a console command for multiplayer to allow leaning while moving, which was a large part of the meta.
I'm so glad Sour kept going with this series. Breakthrough is awesome, I remember finding it so tough as a kid. I hope it's still as good as I remember.
wow! so fast new hard video from sour? man is really really great, i love this series and hope for more
You love to see the suffering firsthand. Thank you Sour❤
you know, I don't think I ever knew the existence of the smoke grenades until know, in all my 32 years xp well not all of those have I played this.
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO dude i watched the first part like 3 times no lie, i thought we were never gonna get another game as difficult as that one but here we are
Ah i remember this game. Im 36 and played all the Medal of Honors. Shooters from this era had a unique feel.
42:42 "Well goodbye then" 🤣🤣🤣
12:14 you do that "whoauwowuaow" battle cry so incredibly well. It's so weird hearing anything even REMOTELY similar to that yell in anything besides that game so this was uncanny lol
Love it Sour! If you ever fancy dipping your toes in the Wolfenstein franchise, I think you’d have a blast playing Return to Castle Wolfenstein on the hardest difficulty
The WW2 Supply Drop reference at 14:49 was top tier
I cant wait to see him take on Breakthrough. Defense of Gela, Monte Cassino and Monte Battaglia are just pain on hard

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.
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
Im loving this series! One of my first fps games was MOH European assault. Definitely check that one and MOH Airborne out!
I LIVE FOR THESE
I grew up with those games. And some of the really old shoters are no joke on the hardest difficulty.
I am looking forward to him, getting to MoH Airborne. Me and my Dad actually breezed through the game in the Highest Difficulty at some point. THough even then, the last Mission The Flak Tower only was doable at the end by spamming Gammon Grenades.
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
You should try brothers in arms series it’s really good because it requires some strategy and the character development is good
Looking forward to Breakthrough!
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.
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.
Instant like when Your video appears on my feed :D
43:06 - GIGANTIC SATCHEL!
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.

YES!! MY FAV SERIES IS BACK
Battle of the bulge on hard is brutallll. You're the only other person i know whos beat it. My friends gave up and so did i for a time before returning and eventually beating it
Holy shit the halftrack section in mission 2 is stupidly hard, remember my 6 year old self almost crying after 100 tries.
Hope you'll play moh pacific assault sometime, your's gameplays are always fun to watch 😊

This was one of the first things I discovered when I started playing MoHAA as a kid. There is probably only one such location in Allied Assault, but they are scripted differently in the expansions. And I'm talking about the MP40 from the first mission, the one you pick up right after recapturing the Major is hard coded as your new weapon. How do I know this? Just skip the two MP40s that appear after the enemies in the earlier stage and take Captain Thomson, from now on you have Thomson and in a moment you will get the MP40 from the place mentioned above. Subsequent games scripted their pickups more. The Spearhead Shotgun you pick up in front of the Hotel appears (with a message) before you physically touch the model leaning against the wall. Once I even managed to pick up a Kar98 right next to a T-34 tank in Berlin, there was a 100% visible message that the weapon had been picked up, but at the same time it moved to the next stage.
“they know when you want to die” lmao
hear me out... brothers in arms
Oh boy, I can't wait for Breakpoint. It lures you with a sense of game being like the other two, but then you realise that enemies don't drop ammo for some reason.
This one ,was my favorite expansion !
Hehehe, you still remember "AEYE BOIS, YA SEEN ANY STRAANGE LOOKIN RAWKET LAWNCHERS?!" and my favorite, "Chimes my ass". Oh I can't wait at all for you to play Breakthrough, I mentioned it before in your MOH:AA playthrough it will *break through* your sanity. It did me as a kid on EASY lmao. The content though is great, lots of new weapons, difficulty is a total ride and Monte Cassino is... I'll let you find out. :P

Yes, the street sniper tank AT gun part was only optional but not undoable. Once I did it albeit it cost me like an hour
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.

Btw S0ur, with Spearhead & Breakthrough - You CAN Melee with the SMGs now, unlike base MOHAA. Leaning is hit or miss (I usually rebind them to Q&E which makes the prompts a lot better, and use F & H for Use and Holster respectively), but that SMG Melee is such a significantly better change especially when you need to reload cause you can whack an enemy then reload

also one thing with the leaning, from memory of playing so much Multiplayer back in the day, is people would often strafe, crouch, and lean at the same time to make them harder to hit. Not sure if it helps as much with AI though

The most unbelievable thing I saw in this playthrough has to be a fighter yak being chased by a dive bomber stuka 52:01

yea I think the half track part was my main issue too
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

I'm not sure whether they didn't play for you for whatever reason, but Barnes (voiced by Gary Oldman if you didn't notice) is supposed to read out a poem on the stats screen at the end of each mission.
breakthrough is longer and harder. cant wait for u to play it.
Get jiggy with it
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.

I just bought MoH War Chest a few days ago on GOG and so far loving it but I can only get the main game to run correctly full screen at 1080 or 1440.
