DICE: Medal of Honor is no Bad Company 2 clone

Medal of Honor is "absolutely not" a clone of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 in terms of multiplayer, according to DICE.

The developer's already released Bad Company 2 last month, with it doing the multiplayer for MoH from EALA.

But BFBC2 producer Gordon van Dyke has said to IGN both games multiplayer won't copy each other.

When asked if that was the case, however, van Dyke said: "No. Absolutely not. I don't know if I'm allowed to say this, [but] people shouldn't expect a clone of Bad Company 2 for Medal of Honor's multiplayer."

He clarified further: "It's just like if you went and saw one action move and then another one came out that year, you're not gonna say, 'Oh, I'm not going to go see that one.' If it was the same director, maybe you'd want to go see that other one even more.

"I think it's more like it's good for all of us, because Medal of Honor's a cool franchise, it gives us the ability to express ourselves through multiplayer in a bit of a different way."

Medal of Honor is due out later this year for PS3, 360 and PC.
