What level of cooperative play will there be in FOA?

Jeff ¡°Tex-Mechs¡± Newcomb:
Phase I of Force of Arms is being developed mostly as a PvP system, and as with most PvP, even if a game isn¡¯t explicitly designed for cooperative play, we recognized early on that players will normally band together to defeat the other side. We don¡¯t plan to shackle players together (like in WoW or FotR, to name a few). Instead, we¡¯ll give them some fairly powerful tools to implement the most effective strategy for themselves. There should be target links, playcards, command overview, satellite recon, and few more that we¡¯d like to talk about, but then we¡¯d have to lock you in a trunk until we release¡­
