Although the game contains a series of single player training missions and operations accessible under the main page option “Missions”, most players utilize the game’s multiplayer option to compete online under the main page option “Novaworld” which connects the player to Novalogic’s online gaming environment, Novaworld. Each Joint Operations server at Novaworld has the potential to hold up to 150 players, based on server bandwidth capacity, making the game a Massive Multiplayer Online First Person Shooter. Although a number of these servers are run by Novalogic, anyone with a PC and sufficient internet bandwidth can host a server, with a player limit of up to 64 people. Many independent servers exist, hosted by individuals or groups of players who form clans.

In the multiplayer setting, the game has five modes, which dictate how gameplay proceeds on any given map:

Coop: All players are on the Joint Operations side and fight against a rebel artificial intelligence team.

Advance and Secure: Both teams try to capture and hold all the bases on the maps before time runs out.
