However, some of this new freedom is an illusion. This game gives you choices on how you want to attack a problem. One of the common strategies is to land on high ground to view the action and shoot at enemies before leaping into the fight. In the game, a compass shows you the destination of each objective making it easy to find your goals. Starting in a new fighting spot keeps the game from getting old, and you don't have to start in a difficult location if the past position was a death wish. While floating through the air, you can steer the parachute to whatever location you desire. Instead of setting players up with linear levels, EA lets you choose where to start each mission by throwing you out of a plane. Unlike Medal of Honor games before, this installment takes a different approach.
The game's historical background teaches you while playing. Medal of Honor: Airborne places you right into some of World War II's most heated battles.
