Man this game.

I don't know if anyone remembers this game or not, but I sure as hell do. I was two when I first started playing it. For years, this game has been an amazing source of joy for me, my friends, and for my family especially. My Mom, Dad, Uncle, family friends, and even my Grandpa born in the 40's played this game. This game was an amazing bond strengthener for me and my friends, as well as my family. This game, even with its low end graphics nowadays, is still fun as all hell to play.

Stalingrad, this damned map.

We played this map, hours on end, rifles only and going for headshots. It was great. We got Alexander's Garlic Paws and soda along with it too. Usually we'd all jam out and have an awesome LAN party (local area connection for those who don't know :P) and would have shit tons of fun and funny moments.

That's why I am going to remake it.

Now, I know this is EA's game, and I don't even have their permission to make this game. I'm gonna go for it anyways, because while it's not my dream, it would be a hell of a lot of fun to be able to snipe people from across Crossroads again from the church bell. Especially in something that looked nice. Since Medal of Honor Allied Assault is EA's game, I can't name it that. So instead, I decided it would be a lot of fun to name it. simply, MOHAA. No affiliation of course. So, I'm here to find out how many people would be interested in two things.
1) Playing it, most importantly. And;
2) If there are any people willing to make this wonderful game reclaim its place in the gaming world.
Either way, it'll be free, it'll get done, and I will make sure to give Imgur (at least) updates. Even if they don't want them. I'm doing this in my spare time, as I am also working to become an astronautical engineer. So if there IS anyone willing to help, especially with map making and weapon modelling, let me know. Hope to have a good response! Have a good rest of the day!
P.S. This kar98 is a work in progress, and nowhere NEAR done, matter of fact this isn't even the finalized version of it. The wood will NOT look like that, it will have a better, more wood-like look to it, the iron will be a little more life like, and most importantly, it'll have a trigger and trigger guard. This, sadly, is the only thing I have made for it yet, that's why I'm asking for help. This gun was made in Blender in around 4 hours, so any help is appreciated.

Bless you my friend.

MOHAA, custom servers, and bolt action rifles. In my mind it doesn't get much better than that. Would love to see this game remade.

We had about 26 players that played matches every week and practiced every night for 5 years. Played on the OGL and were #1 sometimes.

Now I feel old. Thanks @OP, but it was also our favourit LAN game next to CS. That moment when everyone on the map is camping was great.

I absolutely loved this game. I haven't played a LAN game in years but I would if you made this.

What you gonna use as game engine? Unity, unreal, source, ...? Btw check insurgency ww2 mod supported by the devs! It's really Nice!

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I was thinking unreal, as unities cliwion is terrible and unreal has multiplayer imbedded already.

The hours...and hours...COD4 server I play on remade Stalingrad and another map.

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

That sounds amazing. Imagine a Stalingrad remake in the remaster of COD4, but then again hopefully this game can be just as good! Lol.

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It was! I hope so! I liked MOHAA better than COD 1!

Trying to remember name of other map. Had church n tower. Remaster was reminiscent yet different enough to give me a weird complex.

Even if, I'll just make a WW2 game that happens to remind everyone of Medal of Honor, either way it's getting done.

Be careful. I would highly recommend reconsidering the association to an EA intellectual property.

10 years ago | Likes 23 Dislikes 0

Definitely make the game, but if there's a direct association to their IP you will be doing a lot of work for nothing.

10 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 0

1/2 Yeah, they clamp down hard on anyone using their IP. I remember the whole fan made battlefront fiasco.

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Already plan on contacting them today for asking permission to continue my work legally.

2/2Wouldn't it be better to make your own WW2 game? Albeit inspired by MOH? That way you make it your own, and that's good for many reasons

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

As much as I think that making my own would be good, it also wouldn't be what I was going for. MOHAA was a classic game. I'm going for it 1/

As am I, as I said before; I'll be posting updates. Especially when I get a more true arsenal of weapons and character models.

I think that I want to do the expansion's too, the main idea though is the game. I remember when my uncle would run around (1/2)

I think Heroes and Generals is pretty good, but the revs won't stop screwing the players, so it's frustrating.

You should check back, they recently made some changes that'll put you up a few levels, and some extra creds.
