They are they same. They are named different things based on where they are in the world. Tropical cyclone is a generic term to mean an organized, rotating storm originating over tropical or subtropical waters. Once sustained winds of 74mph are hit they are upgraded to typhoon, hurricane or cyclone based on location.
Typhoon - northwest pacific
Cyclone - South Pacific and Indian
Hurrican - Atlantic and north east pacific
As typical for a first episode...some really annoying players, players that are trying waaaaay too hard too early and players expecting all the work gombe done for them.
