In 2010, following the runaway success of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series, the Medal of Honor series was rebooted and brought into a modern-day setting, with gameplay re-tooled to be closer to the style of Modern Warfare. A sequel to this 2010 reboot was released in 2012, called Medal of Honor: Warfighter.The new Medal of Honor games distinguish themselves from the new Call of Duty games (as well as the newer Battlefield games) in that the plot and atmosphere are intended to be much more "true to life", focusing on the Invasion of Afghanistan and later the War on Terror, without Hollywood embellishments such as runaway nukes or rogue Russian special forces divisions with genocidal ambitions.In terms of multiplayer, the games are designed to feature smaller-scale, infantry-focused engagements compared to the large-scale combined arms gameplay of Battlefield, while still being more tactical and less arcade-like than Call of Duty. The multiplayer in the 2010 Medal of Honor was outsourced to DICE (developers of said Battlefield games), and even used a different engine (Unreal Engine 3 for singleplayer, Frostbite 1.5 for multiplayer). | |

Stereotype Flip | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_10ca13e4 | comment |
Stereotype Flip: One of the game's first cutscenes is a passenger-eye-view from the interior of a pickup truck driving into a villiage in Afghanistan. The driver has a turban and a beard, and the stereo is blasting out appropriately ethnic-sounding music. Then the driver turns off the stereo and complains about your choice in music. Both characters are revealed to be American military personnel. | |

Unreliable Narrator: In one of the trailers for the 2010 Medal Of Honor, Sergeant James Patterson is leaving a voicemail for his wife back home, reassuring her that he's in no danger, and that all of the action is happening far away from him and his troops. Cue Sgt Patterson leading his men down the ramp of a Chinook into battle in the Shah-i-Kot Valley during one of the biggest American offensives in the early part of the war. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: Several of 2010's weapons didn't exist in 2002, where the game's events are set in. Examples include the M110 sniper rifle, which was not adopted until 2005 (and the model is based on the Enhanced Match Rifle variant, which wasn't even produced until 2008) and the M16A4, which wasn't adopted until 2004. Zig-zagged with the the usage of EOTech holographic sights - while the model shown in-game existed in 2002, it wasn't approved for military usage until 2005. | |

Bilingual Bonus: It gets a bit crazy, with enemies speaking at least 3 different languages (Pashto, Chechen, and Arabic), and those are just the ones identified by your squadmates. In The Stinger, if you are too caught up in the subtitles to actually listen to the two men talking, you might miss that the last line of their conversation is in English. | |

Custom Uniform | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_31237f3e | comment |
Custom Uniform: Depending on the mission, the AFO teams may wear anything from full uniform and body armor to traditional Afghan garb or an FDNY baseball cap. TSgt Ybarra seems to have a custom uniform of his own, being the only guy in the Ranger missions to wear the DCUs, even though he was technically the only one wearing the correct uniform for the time period. Note that the reason for TSgt Ybarra wearing a different uniform is that while the rest of his team are Army Rangers, he's an Air Force Enlisted Terminal Attack Controller, an Airman trained to fight alongside ground forces and coordinate with air assets. | |

Bad Boss | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_3cb1d38d | comment |
Bad Boss: General Flagg, from the first game. Not only does he seem dead set on not letting the commander on the ground run the operation, he's giving orders by teleconference from an office somewhere, in a business suit. What makes it worse is that he's just not any good at it, attempting to abandon his forces on a whim. Warfighter has General Barrera, who insists in "leading from the rear," as Mother puts it. His hastiness and incompetence nearly jeopardizes the mission and costs the hostages their lives. | |

The audience expects him to get better. He doesn't. Cue white-out... | |

| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_7969f21e | comment |
No One Gets Left Behind: A big theme in the 2010 reboot. After two seals get left behind, the other two attempt a rescue, but in the end get captured themselves. The Ranger QRF also comes under heavy attack but fortunately they're able to rescue everyone, although Rabbit succumbs to his injuries shortly before the helicopters arrive. | |

| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_7fbb2a3 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: General Flagg orders an airstrike on a convoy of unmarked vehicles with armed men and aren't responding to messages being sent to them. Colonel Drucker wants to hold off until they can verify who the unidentified forces are. However, Flagg overrules him, and orders the convoy attacked. US Special Forces on the ground immediately warn them that they are taking fire, and that the Afghan Army is bugging out (running away). As soon as Drucker realizes it's friendly forces they fired on, he orders a ceasefire, but the damage has already been done. | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: Argyrus, the undercover operative inside the Cleric's terrorist organization in Warfighter, is playable for one mission (where he runs through a terrorist training course), then disappears for the rest of the game and is never mentioned again. Preacher and Dusty actually discuss that he's been gone for months and ask what may have happened to him. They don't consider it a good indication of his current well-being. | |

Badass Army | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_8878f3be | comment |
Badass Army: The Army Rangers manage to be this while also being shades of Redshirt Army, presumably to let you actually have friendly casualties during the game without having to kill off any members of your various squads. That said, the fact that three Rangers and an Air Force Enlisted Terminal Attack Controller managed to go up against an entire Taliban village and come out victorious is lampshaded. The Tier 1 operators know that they would have serious difficulty in doing the same thing and in fact, AFO Neptune does. Their focus is much narrower, based on speed, stealth and tactical exfil at the end of the day. Tier 2 Rangers are more focused on conventional warfare, and they're better at it. | |

Moral Guardians: Caused quite a flap that nearly kept the reboot from being released when it was revealed that in multiplayer you'd get to play as the Taliban. The military went as far as to ban its sale in any military compounds, and eventually the developers chickened out and just copied Modern Warfare by changing the name to "OpFor" (short for 'opposition force'). | |

One-Man Army: The 2010 game is somewhat more realistic. You still rack up hundreds of enemy kills, but you're in a squad, against mooks with little practical training, and when the time comes for more explosions, you have to call in other assets. In the end, all that happened in a two day period is that some of your soldiers died, and a lot of theirs died. | |

Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy: Downplayed; to make the game feel more authentic, you're not constantly taking hits whenever you peek your head out of cover (as tends to happen in Call of Duty). In fact, if you use cover, move intelligently, and engage enemies with reasonably good reflexes, you can move through most of the levels without getting shot. If you are getting shot, it's likely because you're playing carelessly. It's not so much that the enemies have bad aim, but rather that they don't magically target you the moment your hitbox is exposed. | |

Competence Porn: The game has a lot of dramatised missions involving "Tier-One Operators" strategically taking out terrorist threats in a no-nonsense manner. | |

Inter-Service Rivalry | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_d54b9eb3 | comment |
Interservice Rivalry: A mild, playful variation in Warfighter. Stump gets flak for being a Marine before he transferred to the U.S. Navy SEALs, and then there's this exchange with Delta operator Dusty among the SEALs: | |

Elites Are More Glamorous | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_d5c7b415 | comment |
Elites Are More Glamorous: Whooo boy. In the 2010 game, we have DEVGRU SEALs and their Army counterparts, Delta Force, as well as Army Rangers, and an Air Force TACP/Combat Controller. In the Novelization, there's a SAS operator. Warfighter contains a whole party of elites from all over the world. To whit: SEAL (USA) GROM (Poland) SFOD-D (USA) SAS (UK) JTF-2 (Canada) OGA (USA) FSK/HJK (Norway) S SOG (Sweden) SASR (Australia) ROKN UDT (South Korea) KSK (Germany) Spetsgruppa Alfa (Russia) Specifically, the developers worked with ultra top secret Tier 1 operatives who were so closely guarded they had to wear hoods and be given assumed names for speaking with the press, and so dangerous that, when EA was going to have a scene in the game where one of them dies, without a hint of threat or menace, these real life Rambos simply said, "That's our story and ours alone to tell", and the scene was immediately removed. The Pentagon was not particularly happy about the fact that those SEALs broke their NDA for profit. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_d9ffec82 | comment |
Curbstomp Battle: When Preacher finally catches up to Sad Al-Din near the end of Warfighter, he proceeds to lay a complete beatdown on the guy, who had just murdered Mother. Despite being The Dragon and The Heavy, he doesn't even manage to throw a single punch as Preacher pounds him into the ground. | |

| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_dcbe8a6e | comment |
Chekhov's Gunman: In Warfighter, the bespectacled trainer of new terrorist recruits turn out to be the "Cleric," mastermind of the PETN attacks on the West. Doubly applies because "The Cleric" also turns out to be Hassan, the wealthy Dubai banker that Preacher and Mother grab in Hello and Dubai without realizing that he's the Big Bad. | |

Artificial Brilliance | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_df11acbe | comment |
Artificial Brilliance/Artificial Stupidity: The enemies in Warfighter are noticeably faster and more agile than the norm in Modern Military Shooter games, able to scramble into cover when shot at or swap from cover to cover when flanked. A lot of the time they just stand out in the open like idiots and go full-auto until killed, though. Though this is quite representative of the Taliban, at least in the early days; a small cadre of well-trained and committed jihadists backed up by a Red Shirt Army of unemployed farmhands handed a rifle and a generous-by-local-standards wad of cash and left to sink or swim. Additionally, your elite Tier 1 allies in Warfighter are extremely ineffective; often exchanging full-auto fire with enemies at close range without a single hit. Enemies will often just walk right past them and shoot you in the back. | |

Composite Character: In the real-life Operation Anaconda, the air assault on Shah-i-Kot valley was carried out by elements of the 101st Airborne Division and 10th Mountain Division. The 2010 reboot instead shows it being led by the Rangers who would later form the quick reaction force for the SEALs at Takur Ghar. The assault on Bagram Airfield also involved the Green Berets' ODA 555 and the CIA's Special Activities Division as the main ground operators on the US side. Here, their role is taken by the SEALs of Task Force K-Bar instead. | |

11th-Hour Superpower: In the last battle of the reboot it finally dawns on the protagonists that the Predator drone that had been watching them for the entire game has missiles to take out the final bunker. Truth in Television: This was how the real-life Battle of Takur Ghar came to involve the first known use of a drone for close air support in history. | |

Product Placement: Warfighter made a big deal of featuring real products that used by actual operators in the field. The game even included links that players could follow to buy those products for themselves. | |

Railroading | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_f6f6adeb | comment |
Railroading: In Warfighter the player's Regenerating Health is on the fast side, which conflicts with level scripts. As pointed out by TotalBiscuit in this very video, the protagonist is totally capable of glomping as many shots from high-caliber sniper rifles as they want without dying, but then will get instantly killed if they dare cross a certain level trigger ten feet away from them without doing what the game tells them to do. | |

Last Stand | |
| Medal of Honor (2010) (Video Game) / int_f7cee9b | comment |
Last Stand: Attempted near the end of the "Belly of the Beast" mission. Air support is unavailable, and reinforcements are too far to reach your squad in time. Ammo is running low, and the Taliban aggressively attack in large numbers. So the squad attempts to call off a rescue, as they don't think it'll arrive in time and will probably walk right into an ambush. Then two Apache helicopters show up and start blowing the bad guys away. | |
