So, like the title says, Insurgency Beta 2 is coming. The 21st of November, to be exact.

Who's going to give it another shot?

I had a blast with Beta 1, so I foresee more blast-having with Beta 2.
 
I was visiting Russia when beta 1 was released and when I came back I seamed to never have time to try it. I'll try beta 2.
 
I'd give it a shot if Steam was installed.
 
I'd love to play it but my pc sucks to much to play steam games online :(

I really want to try Ins.
 
What sucks about it Bones?


I tried the Beta 1 and it blew. Probably will not try this again.
 
Now that they'll actually have a class creation/picking system that doesn't force you into the lame classes that nobody wants to play (I'm looking at your RPG gunner) I'll give it another shot.
 
Well for the most part the game was unplayable. All bar three servers (I'm not exaggerating) would allow me to connect and remain connected. Every single other server either would not pass the "sending client data" stage or would instantly freeze with a connection failure.

The game was kind of fun, reminded me a little of America's Army. It was severely hampered by the fact that if you didn't know the map inside out or didn't have a squad leader who knew how to play the role you were dead. I'd normally love such a steep learning curve however not being able to choose from more than 3 under populated servers ruined it completely.

Hopefully this problem is fixed in the second beta, they certainly got enough feedback from myself and others about it.

QFT. And apparently they're including an overhead map feature so people have some idea what they're supposed to be doing and team autobalance so I won't always end up on the Insurgent team with two other guys against 12 Marines who are either too patriotic or too braindead to switch.
 
Yeah, I'll be giving this another shot. I didn't like playing the first beta (lack of objective marking, no overhead view, some gameflow issues on certain maps ...), but the overall polish was awesome.
 
For sure. Will probably put up a server as well for the beta. :)
