Fun,exciting,addictive.Brillant but with some flaws.
However the huge maps are also a great weakness,as servers rarely have more then 64 players.Novalogic gets around this in the AAS(Advance And Secure) mode.This is the primary game mode and is played in a similar way to Battlefield's conquest. The difference is that you most take the CPs in a certain order ie.If you have CP A you can't take CP C without taking CP B first.
This mode really helps to focus the action on one or two points, which makes for some great games.
The other modes are:Team Death Match,King of the Hill and COOP.
King of the hill can be great fun since everyone is attacking the same point,so you will see lots of action.
A lot of people play the COOP, this can be great fun to play with friends and over the internet.
Most of the weapons in JO feel really underpowered. It doesn't feel like your shooting a heavy gun. Even the 50. cal,mounted on jeeps and such, feel really weak.
The vehicles are really easy to drive,but are best used for transport as they are very vulnerable to infantry fire.
APCs are probably the best land vehicles in the game. A cunningly placed APC can hold and entire area all on it's own.
The helicopters are one of the best things in JO. They are really easy to fly,often have weapons and,unlike BF2,you still pack people on the a helicopter even if all the seats have been taken ie.if all eights seats/positions are taken you can still pack another 10 people on.
The combat in JO often takes place at long range, were you can barely see the enemy. It isn't always about who fires first, more about hitting the target.
Dying in JO is extremely easy. A shot to the foot can kill you instantly. You will probably die a lot more then you kill. This can be frustration sometimes and especially on the maps in which you must use a transport.
However other maps can still work great, and even if you die you can still get back into the action quite quickly.
It took me a couple of months of playing this game, before I really got into it and started making lots of kills but once I did I really enjoyed it and found it oddly addicting.
All in all, this is a great game. A most have for FPS and multiplayer fans. It's available for 10-4 euro/pounds/dollars. Buy it and play it!
