Insurgency ZA

Really looks like a clone though with hardcore mode :( Red Sabre, Insurgency... They're all doing what has been done. We need a new SWAT game then the FPS scene will be complete! :D

These clones are sad, short lived and personally a waste of money - if it's still being played in 3 months, I'll think about it.

well... really no-scope in this game... so no... NOT COD lol its a tactical game, but I like the realism on the damage! 2 shots and down. very much based on BF3 as well with suppression/bipod stand

Looks still very neat!

Actually no cross-hairs, there are scopes... BF3/4 and CoD -Hardcore has this... Based on everything else you said, it's obviously a clone.
 
Just bought it and will give it a go, does seem pretty fun.

Regarding the realism, has anyone played Rising Storm?

A clone of what ? The game did start off as a mod for Counter Strike. You cant say every FPS is a clone of CoD/BF3. (CoD is a game for adolescent teenagers not proper multiplayer)

By your reasoning, the modern CoD games are a clone of Counter Strike.

I never said they weren't, however a leveling, perk and loadout system would prove otherwise. Gameplay wise, assorted attachments, the ability to ADS, go prone and an introduction of a plethora of Solo and Co-Op modes cut's it well apart from CS.

Insurgency adds nothing new to the field, even a set of common features done uniquely could inspire a genre to accept a worthy entry. This is quite simply another attempt, like America's Army, Medal of Honor and Red Sabre. Tiny communities, limited gameplay, lack of decent longevity.

I wish for something new and fresh, not just new. I'm honestly sad that we only have BF, CoD and CS to field the communities.

You should try out Rising Storm, gameplay is really awesome & damage is realistic.

The problem with this genre is that It's very hard for an FPS now to be "innovative", there have been so many, and everything has pretty much been done before.
Even if some game advertises its "new & different feature", it will always be compared to something else from another game that's already been done.

Yup I'll give it a go, I've bought it and busy remotely installing it to my PC at home, might give it a try in between Rust tonight!
 
Looks tempting I played the beta when it was a mod for HL2, I see its a stand alone game now. Doubt I will get it, the market is over saturated with FPS games at the moment.

Camp much? Every single FPS has campers. Fact.

Well, considering you were playing coop with us last night I guess this post is redundant.

Aiming for 32p PvP tonight.

Yip, after he begged me so much i've now put 3 servers on the run, hope we can get the pvp servers full.

|ZA| Insurgency |CO-OP|
|ZA| Insurgency |Tactical Operations|
|ZA| Insurgency |Sustained Combat|
 
Played Co-Op last night and the gameplay really is awesome, very unforgiving, nothing like CoD, much better.

Really need your team to be working together, the sounds and atmosphere are really good, and the way you get suppressed when there's gunfire near you.

Definitely gonna play this more.

We had the PvP tactical server quite full at several points last night. Mostly ints, but still fun.

What I love the most about the game at this stage is the different game modes. There are enough modes alone to keep you on your toes.

Also quite keen to give the sustained combat server a go, although I believe the game is at it's strongest in tactical mode, where it's close to Americas Army gameplay.
