Medal of Honor Guide

Score Chains/Support Actions

Medal of Honor introduces an idea similar to killstreaks you see in other games, these are called support actions. Reach a certain score to get support for your team. You build up the score chain by getting the Point Bonuses, kills, medals, or ribbons while playing online multiplayer. You must build up the score chain in one life because once you die the score chain resets to 0. If you respawn and you see 5 or 10 in your score chain, those points may have been from an assist or kill you got after you died. If you don’t use your support action before you get the next one, then you can’t use the previous one you missed. If you die without using the support action you will be able to use it once you respawn.

There are defensive and offensive supports which you have to choose between when you reach the score chain limit. You choose one or the other. Click left on the D-Pad for offense and right on the D-Pad for defense. Defensive support usually last for one life, while some have a set time limit. I give the game names plus the more technical names hidden in the game that differ for Coalition and Op For. The Coalition name is on the left and the Op For name is to the right.
