Airborne represents a major change if you're used to any of the previous Medal of Honor games or the competing Call of Duty series. That's because those games are highly linear in nature. Everything that you see is carefully scripted, and the designers know where you're going to be at all times, because there's only one way to play through the game. Thus, after you've played through a level the first time, you know what to expect the second, like a group of German soldiers always run across the street at a certain point or a Panzer tank always appears when you reach another point. Airborne ditches that formula completely, because you have control over how, and where, you enter a level, thanks to the fact that you're parachuting from the sky above. All that diligent scripting seen in other games is useless in Airborne, because the player has complete freedom of movement in the level, and thus the ability to make the battle unfold in countless different ways.
