In an interview with CVG, Medal of Honor: Warfighter producer Rich Farrelly said that although Battlefield 3 and Medal Of Honor: Warfighter have similarities, like “micro-destruction and the amazing lighting”, the latter game is more intimate. He also said the game had its own “signature look”.
“I think we have our own signature look; I think it looks a lot different from Battlefield even though it’s on the same engine. It’s more intimate, but we still have some of the same elements that they have like the micro-destruction and the amazing lighting,” he said.
Farrelly also mentioned that they’ve been working closely with DICE and are helping to make Frostbite 2 a better engine.
“We work very closely with the Frostbite team – we’re all in the same boat. We’re helping to make it a better engine on our end as they are. We work very closely with them and as I said, we’ve got some former members of DICE working with us.”
As for the game’s success, Farrelly isn’t expecting Battlefield 3-like sales, instead Danger Close will focus on building the Medal Of Honor brand.
“I think we’re in for the long game. We came out with Medal of Honor 2010 and it shattered records for the franchise, it’s moved something like 6 million units sold through, which is far and above any numbers the franchise has done before. So for us it’s about keep building on that – we want to do more this time and then we want to do more the next time around, just as Battlefield has done building from 1942 to where they are now.”
