Medal of Honor: Warfighter Producer Greg Goodrich says that the mission to kill Osama Bin Laden is "family business" to the Tier 1 Operative who are the subject of the latest line of Medal of Honor games:
That's not our story to tell. It's been an interesting exercise learning what's okay and what's not okay [to portray in the game].
As much as EA and Danger Close want to respect the relationships they've made with the armed forces frontlines, I think it might actually hold them back in their mission to "beat" Activision and Call of Duty.
Honestly, if you're going to talk about Medal of Honor you have to be thinking of the competition. I doubt EA would bother with rebooting the series if it weren't to fill in the gaps developing the next Battlefield: Bad Company game.
Warfighter will also employ Battlefield 3's Frostbite 2.0 and offer players multiplayer options (developed by Danger Close and not DICE this time out) and some form of co-operative support.
