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.

Do it
Dogstar23
This was the frist really online shooter for me. Such a good game.
Benihana
Remember freeze tag mod? And the sound of the Garand firing the last round... Good times
aCoolBreezeOnAHotSummerDay
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.
JustPhotosOfGoodLookingWaffles
I remember playing this on Gamespy before it turned to shit. Good times
cqde
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.
AntLionBlack
After a certain amount of time software is eventually labeled abandonware and people can do what ever with it, bf2142 is coming up soon onit
MikeNutshell
Yep - played this for hours and hours - great fun
BigBumbBear
Best WW2 game ever created.
BitchButcher
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.
DaneBrass
I absolutely loved this game. I haven't played a LAN game in years but I would if you made this.
BigYell
There's no time for Stalin, when you're Russian to industrialise.
KomradKomarov
Good luck @OP, can't wait to see the final product
Misschef
What you gonna use as game engine? Unity, unreal, source, ...? Btw check insurgency ww2 mod supported by the devs! It's really Nice!
ChubbyWhiteBoy
I was thinking unreal, as unities cliwion is terrible and unreal has multiplayer imbedded already.
ChubbyWhiteBoy
Collision*
PryPurity
Mind if I help out? I prefer to do the map design though, have an email?
andwhyisthecarpetallwetTodd
This was the best multiplayer online game ever made.
StrelokAnd
If you do, it's gonna be amazing.
i2SPOOKY4U
if this ever becomes real i will dedicate hours to try-harding
TacoOpCreator
Hundreds of hours playing LAN parties and so much trash talking.... Best of times!! Miss those days....
barrelroll706
Any .::CO.E::. Members out there? I miss the days playing in Loki's Lair

If you are planning on releasing something tied in any way to MOHAA, delete this post, don't release anything else about this game, then >
aegis27
< once it's done distribute it like crazy through any and all means before you get DMCA'd. Though it may be too late for that. Better to >
aegis27
< just go for an "inspired by" game so you can slip through the legal loophole there.
BigAZNMan
Unreal 4 or cryengine the shit out of it
baeelin
Yes that guy. LAN = Local Area Network
ChubbyWhiteBoy
Lmfao, I totally brain farted. You're right, it's network not connection. I was thinking of slight synonyms? Lol
RazerMantis
Yesyesyesyesyesyes
JarethCutestory
Loved the music from this. I would definitely play it.
ocelot77
The hours...and hours...COD4 server I play on remade Stalingrad and another map.
ChubbyWhiteBoy
That sounds amazing. Imagine a Stalingrad remake in the remaster of COD4, but then again hopefully this game can be just as good! Lol.
ocelot77
It was! I hope so! I liked MOHAA better than COD 1!
ocelot77
Trying to remember name of other map. Had church n tower. Remaster was reminiscent yet different enough to give me a weird complex.
alteriron
What is it what do you smell? Hmm...DMCA shutdown notice
ChubbyWhiteBoy
Even if, I'll just make a WW2 game that happens to remind everyone of Medal of Honor, either way it's getting done.
alteriron
may the god of mods smile upon you my friend
GoshNotMe
Be careful. I would highly recommend reconsidering the association to an EA intellectual property.
GoshNotMe
Definitely make the game, but if there's a direct association to their IP you will be doing a lot of work for nothing.
ElPadrinodeCoca
1/2 Yeah, they clamp down hard on anyone using their IP. I remember the whole fan made battlefront fiasco.
ChubbyWhiteBoy
Already plan on contacting them today for asking permission to continue my work legally.
ElPadrinodeCoca
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
ChubbyWhiteBoy
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/
ChubbyWhiteBoy
To feel like MOHAA not "Rowan's game that sorta reminds you of MOHAA"
MelvinKorschav
This is the game that got me into PC gaming. Many hours enjoyed on MOHAA and the two expnasions.
ForstAid
Spearhead got me into gaming, first clan, organised training and tourneys, ah the good old days.
ChubbyWhiteBoy
Shooting people as "Thomas the Tank Engine" knockin' headshots from everywhere to anywhere. Good times.
MelvinKorschav
That is hilarious! Good luck man I am looking forward to it.
ChubbyWhiteBoy
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.
ChubbyWhiteBoy
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)
ForstAid
I remember a while back people where working on medal of honour source.
ChubbyWhiteBoy
I looked it up and sadly, I can't find anything on it :( Even if there is, there will be a second one coming out ;)
ForstAid
https://sourceforge.net/projects/openmohaa/ I think that was it, so long ago. Damn man can't wait for this to happen
chipstar2240
hasnt been a good ww2 game since.
MrTrolvar
Actually kust bought CoD world at war in a sale and it's not bad imo
ballsohard2202
Medal of Honor frontlines? The first three call of duty games?
Doomgriever
Company Of Heroes is pretty good if you're into RTS
xGBHxPegasus
Gotta say this and COD1+UO were my favourite games of all time. Spent 2+ years constantly playing COD+UO, these days lucky to get 100hrs.
H4ILS4T4N
Amen
Dreadmoth
Hidden & Dangerous 2 is pretty good
JazzHandsFan
I think Heroes and Generals is pretty good, but the revs won't stop screwing the players, so it's frustrating.
Binsto
The grind really put's me off of playing it
JazzHandsFan
You should check back, they recently made some changes that'll put you up a few levels, and some extra creds.
skiddchung
Day of Infamy is something new. Old engine but currently on Alpha.
Spanked84
Some of the guys who worked on MOH left and started cod. They were good mp up until mw2. I remember original cod rifle only servers fondly.
Spanked84
Except that I couldn't cook grenades like I could on MOH or pull the pin on one when I was about to die so it dropped at my feet.
Kruxelur
Uhmmm Battlefield 1942???
datUkrainian
And battlefield 1943
catfishbrother
Battlefield 1 is a mix of ww1 and ww2
KlausKinski
it is neither and that is the problem... it is like a Prototype test gun range simulator...
dnoob
Yeah, and I was hoping bf1 would fix that, but I'm a bit disappointed from the beta
ChubbyWhiteBoy
It was definitely fun, but it didn't feel right. It was almost there, but still sub-par.
Zyntherius
It's just a re skinned game in my opinion
KoRnKillYou
Red orchestra. I love all ww2 games but this one takes the cake for realism and having a blast. If you like planes and tanks play Warthunder
Completelyoriginalusername
Seek a doctor if your URAAAAAH lasts longer than 4 hours.
CorneliusSoctifo
I'm not into "realism" style games, but Red Orchestra is super fun
diabLoDesignz
Soon comes Vietnam version from it, im pumped. Love the Vietnam Setting in Games. NAPALM FTW
WaffleEvil
Day of infamy and day of defeat source are both very good ww2 games,
T0mmyH4wk
I never got into Source like I did 1.6, hours spent on Avalanche and Kalt with sine dear friends
WaffleEvil
I agree 1.6 was way more fun
ChubbyWhiteBoy
That's another reason why I'm doing it, BF1 doesn't hold the same feeling.
CorneliusSoctifo
Seeing as BF1 is a WW1 game. .....
TrashRemastered
Even as a WWI game it feels kinda "meh."
WasThatAFartOrAShart
TrashRemastered
True, true.
