Unlike in Battlefield, most vehicles can seat an impressive number of players, almost all of whom are able to pop a few shots off from their seat. Maps up to 50 square kilometres in size and able to service up to 150 players, each of which are able to gain entry to 29 types of drivable vehicle - from Jeeps and amphibious ATVs to patrol boats, hovercraft and helicopters. While Joint Ops does indeed beg, borrow and steal a great deal from our favourite combined arms shooter, it has much more going for it than just the modern-day tropical setting.Īs ever NovaLogic's figures are impressive.
After all, why should I get excited when there are couple of highly accomplished mods for BF1942 that cover much the same contemporary ground?Īs it turns out, I found myself not just mildly entertained but actually gripped by the turmoil of a near-future Indonesia. The fact that the game uses a modified version of the Delta Force: Black Hawk Down engine and the blatant way it appeared to ape the gameplay of the Battlefield series did little to alleviate tensions either. So I approached Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising with a degree of trepidation.
It's no secret that I've never been much of a fan of NovaLogic's games, especially the over-simplified arcade leanings of the Delia Force series.
