New vehicles, weapons and features for you to master! -New Vehicles Pilot fast attack helicopters and mow down the enemy below, or jump on board a Chinook and parachute into enemy territory, diving for cover on impact to prevent detection. Use dirt bikes to negotiate rough terrain with speed and steer combat tanks into the enemy camp, using brute force to take out main defenses. -New Weapons Select your ammo and choose your load out wisely from a total of 44 weapons! Arm yourself with the G-36 assault rifle, sport the deadly MP7 sub machine gun or carry the semi automatic MK23 as back up and more! -Enhanced attack & defend measures Look sharp to stay alive! Added body armor improves your chances of survival, but unless you and your team are ready and alert, the improved sniper counter measures won’t help you avoid his deadly bullet! The enhanced player damage model means that you may just have enough time to dive for cover to survive another gun fight! -25 New Multiplayer Levels Fight for control & ultimate domination of new maps ranging from an abandoned strip mine and civilian airport, to a chemical weapons factory and rocket launching facility. Expect new co-op missions too! *Some features are only available through NovaWorld. **Features are subject to change. ***Internet service required.

Hey guys Thanks for all your comments good and bad. I know you don't think it but we do read the majority of them - and reply if and when we get time!!! The Escalation expansion pack should be great fun. I'm sorry that some people think we are trying to fool them. That is not the case. Joint Ops was more than a full game as far as we are concerned. It wasn't perfect out of the box but we have spent a great deal of time and effort updating the game and dealing with cheating issues and bugs as they arise. We will continue to do this. We are not going to abandon the game. Alot of people don't understand that when you fix one thing, another thing breaks, so it's an ongoing problem we face on a daily basis. I'm not trying to make excuses though. The only thing we haven't delivered on yet is the Stats and this is a top priority for us. To implement Stats for Joint Ops we had to totally overhaul the back end NovaWorld system. In addition to this, NovaWorld had to have major changes to it to cater for the new features in Joint Ops. Unfortuantely this over haul became more complicated than we had expected and that is the cause of the delay. Beleive me if we were able to get the stats out we would have! Anyway, just be assured that Stats are on the top of our list and are coming soon. I can't give you a date because that date/time would probably change and I don't want to circulate incorrect information. Please be patient and thanks in advance for your continued support.
