INSURGENCY is leading an indie revival of the tactical shooter genre. In the newly launched Beta, players take to the streets for intense close-quarters combat, where a team's survival depends upon securing crucial strongholds in 32-player adversarial combat or in six-player cooperative play.
The new Beta showcases a robust feature set packed with hours of intense tactical shooter goodness. Features include:
- 20 Weapons – five of which are new: the M249, RPK, UMP45, M1A1 carbine, and the M4A1
- 8 Fully Updated Maps – including Siege, Uprising, Market, District, Heights, Ministry, Contact and Buhriz.
- Customizable player classes
- Weight-based equipment and gear system
- Team-reinforcing objectives
- Simplified HUD and UI
- Scripting system and SDK to support mods
INSURGENCY's game modes create a distinctive experience from other first-person-shooters. The title offers four multiplayer game modes (of up to 32 players), and two co-operative game modes with bot support (for up to six players). Capturing objectives prolongs the entire team's opportunity to achieve victory, while matches often become an epic tug of war as both teams struggle to gain control of all objectives.
INSURGENCY is a tactical, team-based first-person shooter for up to 32-plus players designed for Windows C, Mac OS X (and later on Linux), using Valve’s Source Engine and distributed through the Steam platform. If the name INSURGENCY sounds familiar, that’s because it’s based on the popular total conversion for Half-Life 2 – Insurgency: Modern Infantry Combat – that saw more than a million free downloads and was awarded the ModDB “Player’s Choice Mod of the Year” in 2007.
his developmental update brings a newly refined level of detail in all aspects and a massive amount of new content including five new weapons, eight updated maps, a new customizable player class, a new weight system, a new squad-based system, and more. In celebration of the Beta release, INSURGENCY is on sale right now for 50% off the single unit copy at $9.99, with the four-game Squad Pack at $29.99 (50% off), only on Steam.
