They said it was coming out in June. Theres only 1 day left in June so either its coming out tomorrow or they lied.

Edit: Nevermind, I just read on the forum that its either tomorrow or Sunday at the latest.

I did, and played it for a while, but the BF engine just pisses me off. The mod great but the game it's built on... Meh.

[skater910]

Finally, a game like Battlefield with decent coding. Now that's a godsend!

[Cee]

I've been waiting for this mod for a while now, the original leader on the project is a Canadian soldier, and is a friend of a buddy of mine in our unit.

[TheScarecrow]

Have you guys played Hostile Intent on Half-Life 1? This mod kinda reminds me of it...

[Doodoocacca]

Finally, ALLAHU AKBAR!

[Leesin]

Fuckin sweet, comes out on my birthday too! july 1st :D

[lordfarquad]

July 1st... no mod...big lie? Not yet, but soon.

[USB]

Yeah where the fuck is it? looks sweet though

[lordfarquad]

Well just checked the forums..
First they said June 2007, then they said the weekend, then they said Sunday, then they said 12 PM, now they said some shit about some guys PSU getting messed up, its a crock of shit fuck this mod it probably sucks ass we have battlefield 2 anyways. They say "team based" and yes guys it sounds cool but do you think anyone will actually use it that much? look at battlefield, everything for a great game is there but no one uses it b/c people are assholes, same with this game.

But I still will play it.

[JesusTheJedi]

Well I just looked at the forums and a dev said it would just be a couple of hours now.

[Rapex]

Can't wait to play it in a few hours. Sounds really fun.:boink:

[USB]

Yeah it better come out soon. I don't mind staying up tonight and waiting for it aslong as it comes out seeing as i dont have school untill september or anything else to take up time tomorrow. People are getting pretty pissde over at the insurgency forums

[JesusTheJedi]

lol yeah, they seem like a pretty angry bunch right now, I can only imagine what they'll do if it isn't out by tomorrow.

[USB]

The latest statement says it will be released in the next few hours...

The project reality mod as posted above managed to get people to play in squads. If you try to play as a lone soldier, you have no chance.

[lordfarquad]

i know why they are delaying the release.

do you know how many hits they're getting right now?? they're making alot on ads... i'd do the same thing

[USB]

Yeah, well its starting to fucking piss me off too.

[lordfarquad]

this reminds me of, oh, HL2 (which was still riddled with bugs after alot of "polish work")

[drogsteve]

Insurgency - Half Life 2 mod is not even working....

[silverspade14]

It's out now.

[skater910]

Ugh, I fucking hate Fileplanet. 18 minutes until the download, and that's incredibly optimistic. This better be as good as it looks.

Any torrents up and running?

[drogsteve]

How is it ? I am goint to download it right now.

Is the game caleld Insurgency Beta1 Client.exe ?

http://www.gameupdates.org/details.php?id=1215


EDIT:, I hope the beta1 client.3x3 is the correct one. THe speed is decent, 330KB/s. Wooooooooot

[Doh616]

Damn this is gonna take over an hour to download, anyone play it yet???

[JesusTheJedi]

Been playing it for a few hours now, for some reason it's a little taxing on the computer, but I think it's pretty fun... Not as good as Red Orchestra, but fun

Start seeding bitches!

[lordfarquad]

ive been playing it and...
its sucks
but i didnt read the manuel so im about to go do that
so far i give this 5/10, only thing that REALLY caught me was the graphics and effects, amazing art direction

[MexAmercn_Moose]

question....can we play using CS Source? because is don't have HL2

[JesusTheJedi]

question....can we play using CS Source? because is don't have HL2

I'm not sure about CSS, but I do know that it requires the Source SDK or whatever it's called... It gets installed with a bunch of games. Go to Steam and then go to Tools and see if it's there

[lordfarquad]

yeah you can play with CSS, and i'd like to add that you all READ THE MANUAL BEFORE PLAYING, saves you a headache. this game isnt so bad now.

[rlstoner2003]

havent read the manual yet... prob shoulda...


Pretty different though, takes some time

[Jocko774]

I've been playing it for 2 days now while its fun it needs to have a few things worked out, there are better games of the same genre.

[rlstoner2003]

yeah, its def good, but needs something. YOu really feal less of a team in this than you do in CS, even though thats what this one is supposed to be all about. really have no feal of accomplishment

[MexAmercn_Moose]

this is a nice game, i have been playing it for about 3 days and it has been really fun...the RPG is a joke though

[lordfarquad]

Lets face it, its just the nice graphics and realism that attract this game. It needs some major polish work, like commanders must have voip or even all players must have voip on some servers, there is no teamwork, i feel more teamwork in BF2.

[rlstoner2003]

yeah... it needs:

actual groups (enforce them, encourage teamnwork, spawn them together etc)

The capture points need more significance/clarification

[JesusTheJedi]

I always get people to work as a team if I take charge with VOIP... Most people just won't speak up and/or don't want the responsibility. People will go to waypoints and objectives that you mark as the commander, and at least most of them will listen to you if you talk to them directly with VOIP... Doing that, I can get some awesome teamplay out of almost any server.

[rand0m]

*BUMP*

Why? Because I really just got into this game. I tried it before and it didn't really work, however just recently I've got it working and I have to say ... fucking awsome.

The game ... just about works if you don't work together however it is a mess, everyone dies and no one knows what going on.

However when you work together ... omg so much fun, been an Iraqi with your in your group, couple of ak guys, support and rpg, been pinned down in a mosque building, laying down cover while the RPG guy blows open escape route, then mad dash for exit. Omg such awsomeness.

The gameplay mechanics themselves are awsome as well, the lack of cross hairs, (some games)lack of kill conformation, prone, leaning round corners, explosions, all work awsomely.

Recommend this any armchair soldier, fucking incredible game.

[mesaywee3]

I downloaded it and it and I dont know how to get it started. It downloaded that soarce SDK thing but I dont see anything about insurgancy mod. I looked in my games folder aswell. Anyone know what im doing wrong?

[rand0m]

Load up steam and it should be in your games list.

[mesaywee3]

Load up steam and it should be in your games list.

Yea did that, It isnt in my games list. :wah:

[rand0m]

You do have Half Life 2 installed right?

[YouEnjoyMyself]

It says all of my maps are different.

What's wrong?

[lordfarquad]

update your game, a patch came out.

[mesaywee3]

You do have Half Life 2 installed right?

yea man, I do.

[JesusTheJedi]

It says all of my maps are different.

What's wrong?

You probably need the patch.

[Hamburger]

Yeah he needs the patch.

[YouEnjoyMyself]

Oh ok, I thought I had the most recent, because I downloaded it like 2 days ago.

But thanks everyone!

[rand0m]

How isn't it working?

[Rapex]

Whenever I click on the installer, nothing happens... I downloaded it 3 times from 3 different sources

I had vista also and I had the same problem. It's really weird but it got it to work. Go into properties and make sure "run as an administrator" is selected. I double clicked it and it seemed like it was frozen. However, you are still able to browse the internet, do work, etc. So I forgot about it, browsed ebwf for like 5-10 minutes then I heard a beep. That little thing pops up that says "This program is trying to access your computer, click continue to let it access your computer" (NO FUCKING SHIT, I was the one who fucking clicked it. Vista pisses me off, it treats me like a 4 month old baby). Just click okay and it should work.

Basically, it's been working fine all this time, it just takes forever to start the installer process. It's been working great ever since, although I still prefer project reality for BF2.

Has anyone who has this mod played CoD 4? Ive played insurgancy, and CoD seems to be the same....

[rand0m]

You're an idiot then.

COD4 ... you can get hit 10 times and still run around. You can fire accurately standing up and hit a target 100 meters away. You can solo easily. There is no chain of command or orders available.

Insurgency ... you pretty much go down in one. For a decent accurate shot you have to be in prone, otherwise you just miss. If you go alone, you will die. You have commanders, groups and the ability to give visual waypoints and objects to fellow teammates.

COD4 is way less realistic than Insurgency.

It makes me laugh when people call COD4 a battle simulator, of course it'll seem like that after the fragfest that is Halo. However to us PC goers COD4 is a frag fest in comparison to what we have.

well said, cod4 is a great game but not realistic at all.

[doped_up_hobo]

i've been occasionally playing the "beta" for the past few weeks since i got a really good graphic card. it's one of the best games so far in my opinion. as long as we have someone on our team with a mic and good leadership skills we do well. it's cool because normally if you shoot them in the heart once they're fucked. love it when they try and go along a hill and we ambush them, they all roll down the hill dead. and the corpses don't go into each other if you know what i mean, like, a dead body has been coded to realise that it's lying across another dead body or some shit.

:squint: I should know that you can shoot accurately by watching a few CoD videos.... interesting

<ahem> :boink:

Love taking Commander position and ordering my team round through the mic.

I'll join a team getting their asses kicked and start telling them shit to do ... and shit to not do. Since they usually ignore me, I then lead by example ... by taking the first couple of checkpoints.

After single handedly getting them closer to winning than the entire team has for the last 7 rounds, a couple of guys start to listen to me, they start to follow me. We win round about 5 minutes later.

Next round I have these guys on myside along with a few who tag along, we win the game in like 15 minutes.

Next round, we all work together and it becomes a turkey shoot.

So awsome.
