I loved Joint Ops...still my favorite multi-player game ever.  I hope this is just as fun as that was.

i loved the day / night cycle.  i also thought it was cool you could play a round..go to work, come home, and the battle was still going.

not to mention the mortars

Oh yeah forgot about the day/night thing that was a really good feature and the mortars were excellent, and shit like loading the buggies into back of the chinooks!

It better go back to BHD-style combat ( tbh) than that JO shit. However, I'm looking forward to it.

I think what I had the most fun with was loading up a littlebird with clanmates with noobtubes (or even a 'nade jeep for lulz) and spamming at control points.
I wish I could have gotten an entire team to use mortars sometime, it would have been awesome.

When I played JO at a friends house I had no idea wtf was going on, but it seemed like an ultimate game. My friend always raved about it.

So, yes...hope this is like that.

Installed, eventually managed to find a link the manually update (auto updater no longer works). Seems there still quite a few people playing saw 2 well populated servers (50 +), and also apparently there is a beta for a new patch out, which is being used to test some features for the new title. Found it a little frustrating at first probably cus I haven't played in so long and both the maps I played weren't the best, worst aspect is how bad the player animations now seem. Probably keep it installed for a bit tho and give it a few more tries.

Don't think you can as you still need a Novaworld account with the relevant keys and stuff. And apparently they have clamped down a lot on hackers and crack users etc with their own automated admin recently. But you made be able to find a key from somewhere after all the game is so old that a lot people will have stop using their keys and the accounts get deleted after long periods of inactivity.

Well Delta Force Angel Falls is set to be released in 2010 on a completely new engine so I doubt there will be gameplay like JO because JO's engine was modified and very buggy and after all it is part of the Delta Force franchise. So if you liked DF:BHD then you will probably like this.

Also they have a game coming out this year called Delta Force Xtreme 2 or DFX2. Its on pre-sale at Amazon and Newegg.

Here are some screenshots of DF:X2 and DF:AF

Screenshots

The graphics are okay, not as pretty as the newest games but it is the Delta Force series, the gameplay is ace and the weapons ballistics are very fun.

The great thing about these games from Novalogic is you're not stuck in a 500 Meter map, you can go anywhere in the map up to quite a few kilometers.

Downloaded, but when I try to install it says it failed to start because binkw32.dll wasnt round, am I supposed to extract both these files to some place? Both the Jointops.rar and binkw32.dll?

JOTR rules so much!

Would be awesome to have 10 guys get in a Blackhawk and fly out to a combat zone, then tell 3 guys with mortars to blow the shit out of it. Then 10 seconds later hearing "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" *BOOOOM BOOOOM BOOOOM BOOOOM BOOOOM" and rushing in and taking it.

ahhhh good times...good times....


EDIT: I just went away to find the disk and now I can't find it to reinstall the game. Oh well...I'll browse the internet to see if I can DL it, I have the CD key.

I remember only playing Joint Ops once for a few mins at a LAN cafe, was knocking around on the dirtbike on an unpopulated server waiting for my mates to join. They never did

Is it a bit like Flashpoint but not as simulated and more facepaced?
