We’re still trying to keep that MOH essence alive. We still keep in touch and play games regularly going into our 30s.

I found a group of 8 or so like minded gamers all in our teens that sucked at Medal of Honor to young adults who became known as some of the top players ever to play the game. Ultimately that game online means the more than anything I’ve ever been apart of. I could go on and on about it if you want to hear more I’d be happy to go on. Duelist/Welrod was the primary skill gun as it was quake instagib reborn into ww2 FPS. The game didn’t have any sort of lag compensation which is normally terrible but it worked really well that made the shooting act more like projectile spawns compared to hit scan. LMG turrets removed, player spawn locations and weapon spawn locations were subtly tweaked. Only modes were TDM and DM small map changes were made from standard offline mp to balance the game. As far as the game went it shows it’s age compared to most modern experiences but I’ll argue that the gameplay was unique and skill based and made for some incredible comp matches. Clan battles were intense everyone in a clan knew each other who won, who lost it was a big deal in our world one of the coolest experiences of my life. The whole thing was hosted on a website called later (both now defunct). However the core of the community was strong because of a dedicated competitive scene at a time stuff like that just didn’t exist on console. However the community was incredibly dedicated at its low points it was probably never lower than 200-300. They weren’t all full so we can say probably around 600 people online at a time. At its peak it hit no more than 125 total servers which if they were all full at 8 people. MOHRS was the best competitive team shooter nobody knows about. Let me tell you a story about the best online multiplayer experience of my life.
