THQ slams Modern Warfare’s “steroided-out super soldiers”
“The most important thing about Homefront is that it completely differentiates from [Modern Warfare and Medal of Honor],” said THQ’s Danny Bilson in an interview with CVG, stressing Homefront’s focus on “not just fear and adrenalin [but] emotion.”
“There’s no steroided-out, super-soldier, waving the American flag, saying, you know [puts on gruff Yankee voice]: ‘We’re rangers. Toughest guys in the world.’ You know? It’s like: No interest in that.”
“All the tonality of Homefront is very different to what’s out there today. It’s violence with consequence,” he added. “Everything we’ve done in this comes after looking at history, looking at occupied lands and guerrilla warfare throughout time…What we’re telling the story of is civilians fighting for their homes. We’ve created this massive world of 2027. And it’s global. We’re a global company. No jingoism here. Some of that’s political, some of that’s personal.”
Though I respect THQ’s efforts to add a little “civilian misery” to the otherwise staid and sterile genre, I still say blowing shit up is global. A good fiery, debris-filled explosion knows no political, sociological or geographical boundaries.

The whole concept of the games is to have fun maybe get a little bit competitive,not for realism i mean look at idk crackdown2 its not realistic at all but is it fun.I do support the fact that yes modern warfare2 you were some what of a super soldier,but as i said its all in fun.I for one loved both of the modern warfare single player games they were amazing now i also belive that yes infinity ward could have improved a few things in the multiplayer.But all and all i hope that THQ makes some good decisions that change the game to something everybody will love.

thats not steroids, thats natural muscle. americas armed forces arent a bunch of pussys, they are pushed to the limit. lucky for them, the limit involves being ripped, unlike it did in the war where the picutre of 4 or so soldiers lifting the flag.

Making claims of realism like that doesn't fit with North Korea taking over the whole of the US. I mean come on, there's probably more people in the US armed forces than the population of North Korea!
