I tried looking for a MoH topic, but I couldn't find one.
Here's an interesting piece of info and an interview on the game. It looks next gen to me.

I especially like the idea of modifying your weapon. Adding M8 nade launchers to Garands, improving accuracy with Thompsons, increasing firepower and all that. The Thompson looks good for a change in this game. The gameplay itself looks next gen as well.
So without further ado, we have the interview.

Definitely, but what I'm interested in is the idea of modifying your weapon. Your M1 Garand (It'd be sweet if you could clip the sear and make it full auto--of course this would turn it into anti aircraft gun, but its a game, and adding M8 launchers to Garands wasn't accurate either).

Yeah that would be pretty cool, I read about someone doing that or something like it in the book "Band of Brothers". And what do you mean by M8 nade lauchers? What are those? And what is the designation for the rifle grenade that you see in some of the videos, I know that is accurate though.

M8 Grenade launcher from Google Images
I was wrong, apparently the troops did mount nade launchers on the barrels. I hope you can mod M1 garands and make 'em full auto.

Yeah, I knew they mounted them, but when people started talking about the M8 nade laucher I thought they were using the designation of the M8 rifle but meaning the M320 underneath. Yeah, Im crazy haha.

I like the options you get so far: Springfield, Thompson, Sniper Springfield. What confuses me is that they didn't mention an M1 Garand, which is odd, because Springfields were used by the Marines in the Pacific more than by the Army in the Atlantic. Weird.

I tried BiA demo a while back and I didn't like it. I didn't like the "go here" "go there" and having to tell your crew to shoot something or what not. I didn't like the tacticalness of it all, which is odd because I am an RTS gamer at heart. I like the wargame material of CoH and MoH. You're in a squad, but you work together in a cintematic sort of way. It's not, "go here" "go there!" or "shoot that!" but rather, its fluid. Your team does it by themselves, and you can shoot too. I think with the improved AI, aim, and all that, the runners and gunners will soon be the doners and goners.
