Sandstorm will never be an " everybody " game in it's current form and while that's great for me it won't ever generate that COD bag , the pursuit that has ruined many franchises. I'm glad they pulled away from rainbow guns and rabbit ears and don't have dolphin diving and bunny hopping but the masses love that crap and as a console player there's already plenty of it. I really hope this isn't the last we see of the team that crafted this masterpiece.
I think the masses is super casual and doesn’t know better games exist they js buy cod cuz it’s mainstream and there friends is most likely gonna have it too cod will never be as good as it was it’s basically a different company
ah consoles... if you like games that are better then average bf-cods try Rs2 vietnam small community but enough to fill several servers 32vs32 right now at least one will be,
I miss the old Ubisoft games where the name Tom Clancy's isn't just a name they slapped to their games. Ghost recon, old Rainbow games, old Assassin's creed. I really feel like we as humans aren't advancing at all
coop is great. calling in airstrikes, drone attacks, mortar strike etc is hella fun. nothing gets your heart pumping than an A-10 strafing next/ over your building or mortar shells impacting around you while defending a building. that alone makes it so much better than most other PVE modes of other games. community voted timed game modes are fun too. both pve and pvp. its sad that the game doesnt have a bigger playerbase. its such a good game and more important, their MTX are fair and no CoD skin BS. i bought the game for like 15 bucks on sale. unlocked tracksuit in game. i bought 4 DLCs for 12 bucks. 4 full character sets for 3 bucks each. not fcking 25 lol
I used to love this game play the fire out of it! But now there's so many high ping players who have a definite advantage. You can land four or five shots and still die to them because of their laggy hit registration.
About a year ago they said insurgency was going down hill and will die fairly soon yet people are still buying it its amazing and an amazing game 100% worth it.. i do suggest good wifi low ping or bullets wont qctually register when shooting someone
The game is from 2018, but it's one of the best (if not the best) in 2024 turning into 2025... Co-op hardcore checkpoint mode is my favorite, 98% of my game hours are in this mode! My nickname -> Zé Ramelon, servers I play: US East and rarely South America... I hope to meet you there one day! Keep up the great IS videos bro! Greetings!!!
@@JereZiii after arma 2 dayz days i only enjoying Rs2 vietnam evolved from cs when it was half life mod, cs1.6 then old cod mw2, then battlefield 3, and now only rs2 vietnam
It's also compatible with mouse and keyboard for Xbox and PS5. You have to enable crossplay, but whatever you're shot will get WAY better. I like this game alot. I mean I'm kinda trash, but it's still fun!
I’ve been picking up insurgency again a bit there’s not a lot of players and every once in a while there’s a team of players all levels 2000-3000 those dudes just go about using the commander to call in air strikes and artillery on spawn points and it’s f’n annoying, I tried reporting them but they just keep coming back, I either stop playing the game or try and find another server.
Idk I wouldn’t down play co op those bots hit some nasty 1 shot kills before u can even get ur weapon up. For the most part the bots are trash but some maps/ modes can be hard af if ur team is trash.
I've been playing The Finals with some console buddies and let me tell you, if this sht had true crossplay I'd get like 4 of them on board... I played some Frontline matches today. Rusty AF
Been playing Insurgency since 2014, it is still my main title to this day, after Battlefield 4, zero regrets What country are from by the way, never asked :-)
I can't agree more what you said with those skins. I mean it looks nice and everything but its so unnecessary. I came from Bf bad company 2 and it is all about the skill. Today is all pay to win nonsense. At least insurgency sandstorm keep things realistic. You only pay for weapons skins and for the cloths and that's it. The rest is all about reaction and skill and so on.oh and the people are way more friendlier to someone even when you just started as a noob. In cod or rainbow six siege everybody is soooo toxic. Its so unnecessary and stupid. Thats why i stopped playing Rainbow six siege also because the operator's gadget gets messed up. And every new update changes something wich I have to get used to again. So as battlefield and rainbow veteran i say: get insurgency sandstorm and you won't regret it. No matter how old it is, its still the best shooter out there! Peace out folk
Cod is the most common fps reference point for most folks. Same with the ghost recon community since they heard the next ghost recon is gonna be an fps everyone instantly started comparing it to cod
This is a great game with bad maps. I love the way the developers found a good middle ground between realism and casual gameplay, but the maps are just trash. Plus the graphics is so blurry on console I cant see shit.
This game could destroy battlefield if it focused on adding more vehicles, and player controlled helicopters, and battlefield sized maps which you could actually drive on without getting rpg'd on 1 linear road. The gunplay and customization is amazing, but the Commander's Ai helicopters and jets are like free killstreaks in cod that should've been made player controlled perhaps.
i can't play it because is poorly optimized,i have huge frame drops even the in lowest settings.after 2-3 days it becomes boring and the game is unforgiving with the new players
"Sick of All The New FPS Games?" then proceeds to tell you to play a game with a modes that are basically die and respawn. I don't have anything against Insurgency, but I don't think it offers that much
"Die and respawn" is pretty much the backbone of every single fps out there.. Sandstorm has lots of different gamemodes and almost all of them require a different type of approach and playstyle to be good at!
@JereZiii not really. Hunt showdown, Tarkov, CS, Siege, just to name a few. Not saying they are good. Then there's games where you respawn, but there is actual consequence, like Squad and Hell let loose. Domination is really played out, it exists since before Unreal Tournament

no VIP mode for sandstorm
Sadge
Ambush is the best game mode

Sandstorm was the best thing that happened to console fps players after bf 3.
Throw Arma Reforger up there too
Battlefield 1 has left the chat
Bf4
@roskcity good but bf3 was first love
ah consoles... if you like games that are better then average bf-cods try Rs2 vietnam small community but enough to fill several servers 32vs32 right now at least one will be,
You described the type of game I like. "A nameless soldier and a gun."
I don't want to feel like a lightweight superhuman.

Obviously the game has a lack of content, but the content really isnt what brings me back year after year to this game, its atmosphere
I just want a left handed character.
My favorite game,because it is so realistic!!!
This game should have had ranked, tournaments and proper spectating etc. Could have been a good competitive game.
I bought this game Feb of this year and I think it’s my greatest purchase in the last few years. It’s so fun and immersive I love it
30 year old baby here I feel u my dude

0:19 This is a huge fact and it describes how I feel about FPS games nowadays.
I will stick to this game till its very last breath.

Is it still crossplay
One of the best and most underrated fps games out there
In console they to add more players 10v10 kinda gets lonely
I really miss playing firefight in this game that was one of my most played modes before less people started playin it😭. Nice vid!
You know what I think I’ll be buying it next time it gets a sale
Great breakdown. Love sandstorm. Hope they continue to update.
If they just release a second with modern kit it’ll be perfect
I prefer the original insurgency. Way more immersive and the constant in game voices are cringe and repetitive
If they could make the maps a little bigger, add a few more players and vehicles, this would destroy Battlefield.
i bought arma re-forger last week i think i have to finaly buy this game been in my wish list for 3 years

2:40 - two shells ejecting lol
How have I not seen that before!😂 great catch!
Man, what I would give for simple hitmarkers or audio feedback when hitting shots.
I'm so glad the developers don't listen to people like you. Hitmarkers and audio feedback when hitting shots is the worst thing in FPS games.
@@WOWMelted I know where you're coming from, but I grew up with CoD4 and the old school CoDs and Battlefield games.
Commenting for algo, we need some new blood in this game.
If you are going to play Insurgency Sandstorm, *play the fucking objective.*
I just got the game. I love it
Yes! the most recent COD (MW3) is just pure cancer, people jumping, moving and sliding like crickets all over the place, its annoying.
you can do it in this game too
@@zgaminggallery9910and loose every gunfight because you get punished for doing so
Not if ur good enough@@Splycee
@@Splycee nope.
@@zgaminggallery9910 yeah but no one does it, its super rare. Unlike call of duty where 100% of the people move like crickets.
Miss this game, it's definitely time to reinstall.
iv been playing this love it
I Like the Dominant Mode, but at the Moment i enjoying the PVE Mode in my Steam Deck
crazy how theres alot of people in this game shitting on the devs cuz why not, sweats just like to complain about every update
Laughs in CS2 pain
FIREFIGHT is the ONLY mode you need
Aiite I'm buying this for the push game mode!
Insurgency sandstorm is awesome.... Play this every night.
Idk I wouldn’t down play co op those bots hit some nasty 1 shot kills before u can even get ur weapon up. For the most part the bots are trash but some maps/ modes can be hard af if ur team is trash.

keep support sandstorm..amazing game
Yes!
As a 39 year old man this is the only good FPS for mature gamers have over 1000 hours on pc on it
Been playing Insurgency since 2014, it is still my main title to this day, after Battlefield 4, zero regrets
What country are from by the way, never asked :-)
Finland!
latency is the only problem of insurgency sandstorm. i prefer arena breakout infinite nowadays.

@JereZiii also in my opinion, the difference between game modes in insurgency is negligible
Reloads are too slow
Double tap reload to reload faster at cost of mag
@racerwilson152 yes, but it's still insanely slow
