Running the Game
First, quit all other applications and insert the Tactical Ops – Assault on Terror
game CD into your CD-ROM drive. The installation process will start automatically. Follow the instructions on the screen.
Once the game is installed and you have started it, you can either:
– start a practice session; or
– join a multiplayer game.
To star t a practice session, click on Game › Start Practice Session. A box will
pop up and you will be able to choose the map you want to play. You can
change the settings for each map: difficulty level, time limit, number of bots, etc.
Bots are characters controlled by the computer. They act of their own will, unless
you give them specific orders. In a practice session, you are the only one able
to give orders to bots. However, you may see/hear messages from partner bots
asking for your help. It is up to you whether you want to help them or not. In
any case, you are always the commander in a practice session. After an order
has been given, all bots (or a specific bot depending on the order) will follow
your instructions for a couple of minutes. They will then return to a “freelance”
mode, unless you give them other specific instructions.
To join a multiplayer game, click on Multiplayer › Find Internet Games and
refresh the list of servers (right-click and refresh). Make sure your Internet connection is working properly beforehand. You can then select which server you
wish to play on, keeping in mind that the lower the ping, the better your connection to the server will be. Also, make sure you are not joining a ser ver that
is already full. In the case that all servers are full, you can start your own multiplayer session and wait for people to join you.

Overview
Tactical Ops – Assault on Terror is an action-oriented semi-realistic first-person
shooter. Tactical Ops – Assault on Terror pits two teams, the elite Special Forces
and the Terrorists, against each other in a battle to the death in different locations around the world. There are a variety of different scenarios available to
play including the basic hostage rescue scenario, right through to C4 bombing
missions and the theft of a prototype weapon. The locations where the scenarios are fought vary, from the towering dam of “Verdon,” to the snows of the
Antarctic in “IcyBreeze,” or the remote church of “Monastery.” Money is
rewarded for successfully winning a round. However, the losers will get a little
bit to keep them healthy. This cash can be used to purchase weapons, items,
and body protection to help your team in their struggle. Money can also be
saved to buy bigger and better weapons to out-smart the opposing forces.
