Joint Ops sends new gamers to Boot Camp
Posted Feb 10th, 03:19pm by Lace
NovaLogic launches training ground for gamers new to Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising
NovaLogic launched an online "Boot Camp" today for gamers new to its wargame Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising and the expansion pack Joint Ops: Escalation. Similar to new-player zones in other massively multiplayer online role-playing games, Boot Camp lets fresh players both earn experience points and familiarize themselves with gameplay...without becoming cannon fodder for Joint Ops veterans.

Way to go!

The funny thing is that they actually have had this out for weeks and it is great. Only lower level players can actually get in there to play and they can not get killed by their own team mates.

Funny how Nova took so long to announce something that has been out for so long. It is really old news to many regular JO players.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems but it will sure annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

I know the feeling ferrit.. I bought the game ages ago, and it was pretty cool, you know for playing around in helicopters etc.. but when your in a game its impossible to tell who to shoot

If someone could clarify this part of the game for me I may go back to it.

Depends on how the server you play on is set up. Whether or not they have icons on or off friendlys, and enemies. Check out some various servers and see what you like.The game is actually very good if your into teamwork type games.
Go away, or I will replace you with a tiny shell script!

You want a challenge check out the ATN (Anti Terror Network) servers in North America. All their servers have it so you can get killed by friendly fire. Their elite server has tracer and tags off to make it more challenging.

No I don't want a challenge thank you very much I even tried to hitch a lift with a bad guy who nailed me

The game does seem pretty cool, but I'll prolly wait fro broadband at home before I give it a proper try. I need AVPU to hold my hand and explain to me what I should be doing I think

i played a game w/ one of their players yesterday, the noob, didn't clr zone even tho he knew there was no way of us winning (i was on other team)
.........have funnish

The ppl w/ tags are ur teammates, dont waste ur ammo on them unless FF is on, the ppl that r hard to see w/ no tags and have those indo accents, shoot them, they die much easier then the ppl who have tags.

One of the servers they host, even your team mates do not have tags. No one gets tags. Enemy nor teammates. So you have to really watch who you are shooting as friendly fire is on in their servers.

They have 3 servers. The setting are not the same in all servers.
