Not sure how many here are fans of this series. My son and I have owned them all. And I am rather encouraged to read that the Alpha is now in Phase One...

    I also am a diehard Novalogic fan, going all the way back to 1993
     
    Novalogic pioneered (and holds/held the original patents on) on hundreds of the features we take for granted in online multiplayer games.
    The "med pack" was invented at Nova, as was the ability to "pick up a dropped kit". It was the very first company to develop the STAT server for recording a players online gaming statistics. Novalogic was the first company to ever run 32 player online netcode and support it out of the box...
    The list of online FPS features developed by Novalogic is endless, and nobody who plays first person shooters today would recognize the games they play, without all the play aspects that were developed and pioneered by Novalogic.
    And the ability to play on unrestricted maps sizes (go anywhere without any map boundary limits) was a feature back in the late 90's, that to this day has never been accomplished by anyone else.
     
    If your playing a first person shooter today, whether you know it or not... you have Novalogic to thank for most of the great gameplay features.
     
    Novalogic was at its peak in 2004, coming off its hit series of #1 selling Deltaforce games. The next year, Joint Operations was to be its most impressive game to date, with huge 150 player servers and extremely deep combined ground/air/vehicle gameplay. http://blip.tv/file/get/Maniacpictures-JOTestRenders686.wmv and http://blip.tv/file/get/Maniacpictures-JOAtMAX1705839.wmv That release was by all measures a huge sucess, the only problem was that Battlefield 2 was released 2 months later...
    While (in my opinion) JointOps was a much better game than BF2, there was no doubt that BF2's higher res textures and extensive marketing made it more "appealing" and JointOps sales were completely destroyed and so was Novalogic. 
    By the end of 2005 Novalogic's days as a FPS powerhouse developer were over. Over 200 staff of the dev teams were let go, and Nova entered its current period of rehash releases done by contracted outsource teams....    
     
    Angel falls was originally scheduled by Novalogic for release in 2008 as "Black Op's" 
    http://blip.tv/file/get/Maniacpictures-AngelFalls2009283.wmv 
     
    We are still waiting..... 
     
    I have been teasing Novalogic over it's "Angel Falls" release for many years now
    Some of my best "Angel Falls" parody fake videos
    *I have done 27 of them, sadly only these 5 are EVGA forum friendly
    My TropicThunder "AngelFalls Beta testing" parody video has over 50,000 views.. but is unpostable here. 
     
    #1 my fake E3 Black Ops/Angel falls release trailer for 2010

    http://blip.tv/file/get/Maniacpictures-NOTAngelFalls500.wmv
    *Codemasters edited version-->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjRvWjeoejc 
    ----------- 
    #3 another fake Angel Falls promo, this fake went viral for awhile as the real deal
    *for people who did not recognise the engine used 
    http://blip.tv/file/get/Maniacpictures-BlackOpsBETA181.wmv
    ------------
    #4 my CatPoo fan remix (part two, part one is not forum friendly)"Angelfallstan beta testing"
    *Got a personal email from Novalogic CEO John Garcia over this video

    I too have played NL games since way back. I am kinda looking forward to Angel Falls but hoping its better than JO DFx and DFx2 . the last game I truly enjoyed that they did was BHD. I still fire it up once in awhile also

    Man I remember Delta Force because it was what I played in between COD 1/2 and COD4 or when I got bored of COD 1/2.
     
    I am pretty sure Delta Force was the first game to actually have bullet drop for the sniper rifles... Also, signed up for the Alpha :D

    Delta Force is what got me into FPS games! When my family was based in Korea we used to go to the LAN rooms and play Delta Force all day long. Good times

    +1 The first Delta Force got me into the FPS/computer addiction! I used to call my buddy a nerd, then I played DF lol Also, after I got back from 9/11 Black Hawk Down was out so it inspired/forced me to build my very first computer. My old tired HP couldnt handle it! lol I bought the whole series but played BHD until BF2 came out... now BF3. Thats the extent of my gaming passion (and FSX). Looking fwd to it!

    I have wonderful memories of playing Delta Force.  Another +1 for Novalogic being a pioneer in the genre, they really were.  Thanks for posting!!

    I started with Land Warrior back in the day ( I miss LW ). FN Mag and a med pack ruled the zone.  A couple of guys I knew back then wanted to start a squad and MAK was born. We went from LW to BHD. I hope the new game is as good as BHD was/is.

    Thanks for posting this AB. I hope they actually get the game out...and it's a success! A lot of the community (NOVA) have been waiting for several years now. Along with this little to no communication to their community. Joint Ops to me to this day has had the best gameplay in a military shooter. ANd of course there were a few mods that were good. There were/are tons of player made maps as well.

    Just FYI, Yeah the thread is old but... Considering what this game is.. 
    We have been waiting for Delta Force Angel Falls for like 10 or 12 years or more.. 
    Basically someone made a better version of what this was supposed to be... 
     
    Anyway a new game was made based on these old games. 
     
    Modern game made with unreal engine still in development. I play regularly..
