Gameplay
The gameplay in Joint Task Force is focused around tactical decision making.
Instead of resource collection, players get money to spend per mission and per objective. Troopers and equipment are assigned at the beginning of each mission, and more may be ordered by helicopter and trooper transport. Heavily armoured vehicles such as the M1A2 Abrams tank and the M2A3 IFV are airdropped in by a Hercules transport plane onto a captured runway. Therefore if a player wants the upper hand in a mission, he must capture and control the runway for armoured support.
Troopers also gain experience and can be promoted to officer status. Officers have a skill tree that can be improved over time, similar to popular role-playing games. These officers will then give you a massive advantage on the battlefield depending on their speciality. For instance, a vehicle crewman gets a lot of experience from a mission, and is eligible for promotion, this now makes him an officer and is most combat effective when in a vehicle.
The singleplayer campaign can be played cooperatively with another player.
The game also features a 'Skirmish' mode where the player can choose one of three factions: JTF, Terrorists or Dictators.
