The Insurgency disscusion thread

Oh crap were you on my team sorry about that. :P i really had alot of trouble finding out. I sniped my teammate mid combat once. T_T he jumped in my shot.
 
The more I play this game, the more I love it. We had a good game of Almaden tonight, server about 3/4 full, nothing spectacular but nobody on my team was trigger happy and we moved together and covered each other.

I haven't found a weapon I haven't liked or been able to use, but I LOVE sniping in this game.
 
Try using the M4 aimpoint, the srg. gets it. It zooms and has a very clear sight since it is a red dot scope. Also, the AK-47 is very accurate and has a low profile iron sight
 
The only quarell i have with the mod, is the ironsights on nearly all of the weapons. They take up the majority of the screen it seems, without giving you really any actual sight to look through.

I understand INS aims for realism, and that iron sights are no where near scopes, but seriously the sights are worthless for the majority of the insurgent weapons. (aside from the AK which is an awesome low profile sight)

I love the US Marine weapon sights, especially the red dot scope for the sergent. I wish there was a skin to change the sights....actually ima go look into that.
 
The AK-47, the automatic militant's weapon (I want to say AKS-47, but that's probably wrong), and the insurgent LMG (no idea about it's real name) all have similar, and very good, low profile iron sights.

In honesty, I think most of the insurgent weapons outstrip their marine counterparts (I hate the M4 iron sight with a passion).

My only two real wishes would be

a) Some kind of healing/recovery mechanic. I know that breaks the realism, but as the game doesn't account for long term combatant survivability, there's currently there's no incentive to help injured or incapacitated friendlies, which also breaks realism. So I'd rather break realism in a way that would be more fun and more encouraging to teamwork.

b) Some way to create fireteams/squads and have squad only communication. High communication teams are much more fun and effective, but the voice channel only has so much bandwidth, and it gets really cluttered at times.
 
Related to what Shutter said

I remember this one mod for Battlefield 2 was pretty cool. You had a health bar you couldn't see and once you got hurt enough, you slowly started to bleed to death. Doing so would cause you to start becoming delirious and your environment would swirl around you. You only had like 1 pack of that stuff that they dump on wounds (sorry, don't know the name), but you could also pick it up from fallen enemies and allies. I'm pretty sure you could also give yours up to give to your teammates. Plus of course there was the defibrillator. I thought it was pretty neat and it'd be cool to see something like that in Insurgency.
 
The iron sights on the TOZ and the AK-74 are also quite good, the only iron sights I really have a problem with are on the semi automatic rifle that riflemen can pick, the sight is too bulky.
 
Well, yesterday I was playing in our server.. Ran to a wall with holes for cover ( bad idea by the way.) And saw the Gordon Freeman HL2 suit through the wall. It was epic, Valve logo and all
 
very very very fun game.

although my admin needs to be set up >.<

also any1 know the website that tracks your stats for INS?
 
Wish eGO would start an official division for it, some guys were asking if they can join but I didnt know how to respond.
 
Been playing for the last hour or two... IMO, pretty fail game.

TF2 has better graphics and smoother playstyle and the hole American vs Terrorist thing is really getting played out. It's almost as bad as World War X games.

Thank goodness it was free, otherwise I'd be a very pissed off person.
 
What do you guys think now that FF was turned off?

Personally I hate it, it changes the core gameplay of Insurgency
 
Yeah the FF was supposed to make it more realistic...well...then again...there's also something GOOD about it. You can shoot at people and not be scared of TKing! :D

Click to expand...

It takes ALOT away from the gameplay. Many people, myself included, have stated "if FF got turned off, i probably wouldnt play this game".

I really hope it gets turned back on, or ill just have to play on a non-eGO server.
:(
 
Aww. That's unfortunate. I mean I think it was hard with FF on, but it was also more fun. Whatever, I'll hop on in a sec and see what I think.
 
Yeah, FF needs to stay on. It completely changes the game without it, and not for the better!
