The Final Updates for Insurgency: Sandstorm?

I wish sony would revive the socom franchise, and bring the entire insurgency dev team over to basically just rebrand insurgency as socom, but with a ton more resources to allow for way more guns, game modes and maps. Give me day/night maps, urban maps, rural afghan mountains, middle eastern villages, etc.

I was just thinking. It's about time for a new chapter the could drop a secret insurgency game

For somebody who has played a lot more of insurgency OG standalone from 2014 it is crazy considering Insurgency sandstorm as 6 years old already and approaching a decade. I thought the graphics for the original insurgency was amazing, and this game graphics still feels futuristic. Most games don’t look like this. The future is awesome for 3d graphics. And remember, this game started as a mod for half-life in 2007.

So many hours put in this game on console at this point i would not mind a new title built for current consoles imagine how sick the graphics and animations would look !

I dont think its the last update. Their companies' parent company got bought from the shitty company that owned them and they should be dropping stuff. Its a rabbit hole. Saber should hopefully be dropping more stuff for this game.

Sandstorm was a good game, but it wasn’t great. It has its moments, but a lot of the features, gameplay and structure of the matches were just… off.

I think the ways that the attachment and customization works is pretty weird, but cool. I think they should’ve switched it to a monetary version, where you can buy and sell guns with an in game currency, like rubles in tarkov etc… The token system doesn’t feel like it allows you to be well equipped when you would want to be. The game can also feel too slow. I understand that there’s no need to be zipping around the place in a game like this, but a trained operator can run if they need to. It feels like my character is trudging through mud 90% of the time. Which is fine when I want to move slow, but sometimes, I want to get to my teammates and I really can’t.
The UI also feels weirdly dated, it feels like i’m playing an old ps3 game, which is fine because it adds to the charm and style of the game, but something more minimal and visually appealing would be nicer.

The game itself doesn’t really feel accessible. Now hold on, it’s a hardcore shooter, it shouldn’t be the most accessible, and that’s important. However, I feel like this is an issue because of the way they design maps. They feel extremely linear, and one directional. The maps are designed in a way where you feel like you
can move safely to the next objective once you’ve cleared out enemies, but enemies can just appear and spawn within places you cannot move through. You end up encountering this a lot and it ultimately ends up being waves of enemies spawning from cracks within the way we try to secure an objective, instead of insurgents trying to stop us from attacking OBJ.

This limits accessibility, because you straight up don’t know where enemies are coming from, because after you’ve cleared out objectives or areas, enemies simply just spawn in all around you when you’re on objective, from the majority of directions and it feels like you’ve done something wrong when you get killed.

I don’t know if that makes sense, but it just doesn’t feel right. I think enemies should move to us, or should already be there. They shouldn’t spawn on the other side of the wall i’m next to and funnel in from one side. I can’t defend against that.

When you’re defending an objective, having your teammates cover you is a necessity, but a lot of people don’t understand that, even if you communicate. They want to go for kills and pop heads. And in a game where you die very quickly, defensive plays get shut down very quickly.

The AI is dope, the aesthetic of the game is perfect. The gunplay is great, more weapons and customization could only make the game better. The genre itself just needs some updating and balancing. I think they should really focus on the way your character plays and moves within the world and make it more cohesive and responsive rather than sluggish. Even if they don’t crank up the speed, make the environment better reflect that, and give us more options for defense when we get caught off guard.

I say this as a console player btw.

7/10 must play

Crossplay has already been on this for a while now….

The cosmetics caused a cosmetic bug (at least I think it's a bug and I hope it's not just me) that causes the PASGT helmet w/ Uniform Camo to revert to single, solid color without camo pattern.

It’s a real shame we never got that campaign

Jesus they need to add something actually new, I don’t think anyone asked for a new bolt action and the one map a year definitely does not keep me interested in the game, don’t get me wrong this game is great but the serious lack of content is really hindering any growth they could have seen.

Isn't there already consle PC crossplay?

I agree with you on hating the light on tell, HATE it. It sucks because its a decent map

I would like to see added the: Groza, vz61 skorpion, skorpion evo 3, ak 12, fn fnc, tt33 pistol, bizon smg, lee enfield, carl gustav smg, fn 2000, fn five seven, hk416😁

i got this game when it was only 10 bucks

I know a new insurgency game would be cool, but why. They are on the Unreal Engine and can port everything over to the newest version. Then they can update visuals and keep making new updates. Just because it's 6 years old doesn't mean that it needs to be fixed.

Think it's time for a new insurancy game. Where and when? Idk but definitely something new. Or they really need to start adding new content. Like real content. 1 new weapon in however long is kinda nuts. But hey, that's just me. Hopefully we get a new game in the near future. Maybe things will change and there will be a year 4? Idk tho.

I hope console modding comes with the crossplay

I love insurgency and i also love vietnam setting if insurgency vietnam will be a thing i ll go crazy 🤪. I just dont want insurgency to die there's no other game for me at the moment.

Does anybody know what the damage for the new sniper rifles are?

They should defenetily add weather and mods for console before leaving the game

The only reason I don’t play pvp is because it’s flooded with hackers bro

Omg that new map looks amazing

On console we are fawked we don’t have server browser

Yo the game is already cross Plat my buddy plays on computer and I play on xbox ? What you mean they want to put it in

Closest gunplay to squad as console can get, we broke out here man

I love the vector it has no recoil and high fire rate

So they want to keep player numbers up by combining the playerbases, but throwing console players in with KBM players will certainly drive console players away. Or they opt out of cross play and the plan is moot anyway.

BLACKOUT [Crazy+] By Mar_R10Z

They should make a sequel to insurgency set in Europe loosely based on the Russo Ukraine war

I wish they would make a HELL LET LOOSE type of game under the sandstorm name! I've gotten bored with sandstorm just because it's so limited. NOT A WW2 GAME! BUT AN UP TO DATE SANDSTORM MASSIVE MAP WAR TYPE GAME

They need to keep working on this game , it has so much potential , tons of fun .

A jungle setting would be perfect, it would be the next rising storm 2

when i load up the game now, i get like 3fps in the menu and then it just crashes

We are getting a forest map legit all forest …. It’s far from dying

Will they ever add VR Support?

Will insurgency be discontinued?

An Insurgency game but not with one particular setting but set across the globe with different factions of insurgents and security forces would be the best thing forward.

Getting to play on different settings like the Balkans, Eastern Europe, South Asia, Middle East, Latin America, heck even in Western countries would be very interesting.

Hell, they could even have a campaign similar to the deleted content of Counter Strike, with each mission being different Security factions fighting off different Insurgent factions according to the setting each with unique tactics.

AHEM MAYBE TIME TO GO TO VIETNAM AHEM AHEM

It needs PiP scopes for Xbox Series

Eastern Europe themed Insurgency pls

I hope they copy and port at least the gunplay and sounds into some other game. That would be a huge waste if they wouldnt

Just started this game, having a fun time so far. Probably one of the most “realistic” shooter experiences on console.

They left it with no Team Death Match 😂 or customize buttons

Whenever I click to launch match making it is like 10 secs of wait and servers are pretty mmuch full. The game is from 2018 and I don't know what makes the game succesful more than that fact.
I hope to see more Installments of this.

Here we are in October, there is no chance this game is going to 1.17 and then 1.18 by the end of the year. I'm secretly hoping something happens and the game is picked up by a new studio and gains new life

I have t played this game in a minute need to re download it

The amount of potential this game has that is just wasted is astounding. So many things you can do with this game yet they just don’t do shit 😂. Maps, guns, and outfits, and hotfixes for bugs is all we need it’s not that difficult you don’t have to make a whole new game just drop content 😂 or small fixes here and there

Estaria genial que tuviera mods en consola
