It's been a while since we've heard from this mod, but today there's news - and oh my God, there's rather a lot of juicy new screens showing dusty, gritty, visceral game scenes. In case you didn't know (you been under a rock? ) Insurgency deals with the awe and shock of high-tech marines armed up to the teeth versus zealots, crusading for their beliefs. It aims for play that's authentic as can be; there's no health packs here, and no tech tree - just broken ruins and sun-baked sand, with two teams battling for the upper hand.[br]

[br]As you can see it's shaping up real nice and if you agree, you should take my advice and click here, see - you'll be whisked in a trice to the insurgency site - that should suffice. There's a lot more screens than we've room to show, so if you want to see more, then away you go.
 
I see a distinct lack of tracers.
Oh and I take offence to that "no tech tree" D: :p

Still looking great though :O
 
NOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooo the rhymes
 
After Black Mesa Source, this is my most wanted mod.
 
this is what BF2 shud have been like, sweet GFX, great long distance POV with good looking team combat.

Bf2 def. has great graphics, you can't really argue otherwise....

...unless his graphics chipset is made by intel or via :LOL:

I have to admit, insurgency does look very nice indeed.

Don't worry, we have tracers. The lack of them in the screenshots may only be because no one was firing any weapons that use tracers.
 
You got some great talent, but why go where BF2 has already gone to ?

Thats like saying why go where Quake has gone, why go where DoD has gone etc.

BF2 has a similar setting - but our game is completely different.

As triath said, there are tracers. Red for the Marines, green for Insurgents. Check out http://mods.moddb.com/gallery/image/38365/ to see proof, heh. And yea, thats a red tracer from an American gun...an insurgent must have had one ;)
 
i just hope that the gameplay truly feels different and no like any of the many other modern war fps games that i've grown so bored of.
 
I see that there are vehicles, dont know if they are drivable. I just hope It does not lag online.
 
Counter Strike ruled teh internets for to long.. Time to let go methinks :sniper:

I think they're still there.

Oh, you mean just in the screenshots in general? WELL YEAH
 
they should release this game by the end of July.....quality mod.
 
Looks very nice.

Hope we can choose what side we wanna be on!!! :D

Anyway when is this coming out. ?
 
Um, i already brought and paid for battlefield 2 - remind me, why am I going to want to play this? Not saying its particularly bad looking, i just dont see the uniqueness =/
 
I didn't really like BF2.

Bad, laggy game browser, a movementsystem that feels like your in jello.

This on the source engine might be totally awesome.
 
i think the source engine is more ... "precise", in BF2 you just slide of crate when standing on them and in source the physics and collision feels more realistic. Also source is nicer to look at...
I remember seeing the first concept art of insurgency knowing they would pwn.

Same could be said for BF2142. Its still guys with guns, armoured vehicles and flying delies fighting over a map.

Bet your still gonna buy it though...

Precisely.
I'm bloody addicted to those cool-looking tracers, WHY AREN'T THERE ANY IN THE DAMN SCREENSHOTS D:

Honestly? I took all the Karkar screens, and I avoided combat for a reason. I wasn't entirely happy with the lighting from the muzzle flash (can see them in some), so I generally never saw tracers.

Then remove the muzzle flashes (why are seeing those, anyway? Muzzle flashes are pretty rare :p) and just fire, fire fire.

Actually, just spam some rounds and capture the tracers on a white background. I will be content.

Ok, well i dont really know much about the game. But what are the gametypes?

What weapons are used?

What alignment are the two teams?

What is the setting?

Now once again. Im not saying it will be a bad mod. But im failing at seeing thep oint :(
 
Well I'm not sure if this idea went through your head or not when you were thinking up all of those questions, but there is a very handy "website" for the mod with a section completely dedicated to giving you that kind of information. Am I going too fast for you? This is just a suggestion of course.

Look, I've even provided you with the link! none of that difficult "navigating" or really any effort neccessary!

i know the answer to the quesitons, call them rhetorical if you want. The idea was that the reader may answer not only them, but the "Hey Gusdor, wtf is your point?" question too.

Not the same as BF2

What weapons are used?

What alignment are the two teams?

What is the setting?

So you're saying if I have Call of Duty it's pointless to buy DOD:Source? If I have enemy territory it's pointless to buy brothers in arms?
I have all 4 games, and I can tell you that "same weapons, same teams, same setting" means SH1T in gaming.
 
You saying you dont have to capture and defend areas in insurgency?
