SpeedyDonkey 0 Posted March 31, 2004 The joint Operations multiplayer demo is now released! Download it from www.jointopsthegame.com More screenshots Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted March 31, 2004 There was already a thread on this game in the past. I watched a movie and it doesnt look thaaaat great. But it is gonna be ok! Maps are huge and vegetation is tight. So good for ambush and sniper-camping! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Koolkid101 0 Posted March 31, 2004 Doesn't work very well with my 64mb G4MX440 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jakerod 254 Posted March 31, 2004 I don't really like it all that much. It has nothing on OFP and most the buildings i see in the screenshots are just taken out of Black Hawk Down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nathanz 0 Posted March 31, 2004 The vehicles accelerate from standing still to full speed in less than 0.1secconds I also get 15fps max on my 9800pro with default settings .... although i get 50 with high setting in farcry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Architekt 0 Posted March 31, 2004 That Mi26 looks a bit small, and the vehicle textures...well I guess it's just testement to the skill and quality of texturers of the Flashpoint community. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sanctuary 19 Posted April 1, 2004 This demo is just a slideshow for my system even on LOW/OFF everywhere. Even OFP seems to be the smoothest game ever in front of Joint Ops. And when i remember that recently , on my old system i had the surprise to play the Far Cry demo with better graphics than J.O. while being smooth on my GF2 , that is just hilarious .

toadlife 3 Posted April 1, 2004 Since Im on a 45mbit connection I downloaded it for the heck of it, and Ill try it. Looks like another game trying to imitate OFP. Judging by the trailer, it will be too fake for my liking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like another game trying to imitate OFP.Judging by the trailer, it will be too fake for my liking. It doesn't imitate OFP.. it's just an offspring of Delta Force. There's only one game that tries to imitate OFP and it's Söldner but they focus on making it arcadish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted April 1, 2004 Right now any game that wants to be new and attractive copies OFP! Sorry to say that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toadlife 3 Posted April 1, 2004 It doesn't imitate OFP.. it's just an offspring of Delta Force. Ah yes DF: A game that I thouroughly hated. Well the trailer bragged about controllable land, sea and air vehicles and even featured an operative jumping on the side of an OH58, so it seemed to be touting a lot of features OFP has.

Baron Hurlothrumbo IIX 0 Posted April 1, 2004 Just tried it. Not impressed. Vehicle physics: terrible. Just... wrong. Far too simplified, far too basic, far too arcadey. Boats bounce off the beach from about 3 metres away instead of sliding up them. Jeeps bounce off trees. Weapons... ok. No sway, no aiming really required, just spray and pray. Hit reg seems dodgy (even on bots) Graphics: looks like someone spilled some cartoon colours over everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colossus 2 Posted April 1, 2004 I love the water on this pic. It's almost real  Water Hope OPF2 have a similar water when its released Faster link to downloading PS: 1h and 6min left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goeth 0 Posted April 1, 2004 Tried this and no big deal, once again arcade crap shooter. There is some good things in it though, water is somewhat nice and game is able to handle big matches, tried it in some german server and there were 60+ players.

Can't you do that in real life? It just imitates real life. I don't consider every game that has a jump button to imitate the first game that offered it. OFP has weapons and you can shoot people in a 3D enviroment so you mean that it imitates Castle Wolfenstein? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted April 1, 2004 There are nice things about it. It's basically just a sequel to Novalogic's Delta Forec Blackhawk down. You'll see pretty much the same graphics and movement in DFBHD. If you liked that, this will just introduce more props. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Colossus 2 Posted April 1, 2004 "DFBHD"?? DGHFRBS SERRTRSQ BFRWPMGNB°! Delta Force: Black Hawk Down EDIT: After trying the game I just realized that OPF is a very realistic game then Joint Operations. And I got 5 times the message ¨We lost the server¨ and It took me 5min just to load the God damn map. Some of the boats and chopper I do miss in OPF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lee_h._oswald 0 Posted April 1, 2004 This game(the demo) is the crappiest bullshit I have ever seen. Everything in this game looks ugly as hell. What are all those sreenshots from? Render shots? Crap! MfG Lee Edit: All details at HIGHEST possible: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
