      I enjoy gunfights....not cheap confrontations where MFs hoppin around like a bunny and running like they just hit the firest Rock...changing directions like UFO orbs.
      I only play free DMZ and havent spent any money on COD in about 13-15 years. I need to try this as i have been telling myself to but just havent got around to it due to thr core games i play.

  • @Steeler091
    @Steeler091 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

    If anyone is new to insurgency: sandstorm watching this, play coop checkpoint to get a feel for the maps, sensitivity, weapons and classes. It also helps to play the game with a mic if y’all play on PvP and PvE cause there’s hardcore checkpoint which has zero hud and slower movement. Weapon calibers matter because penetration kills are a thing if you’re using battle rifles, or LMG’s. Also your sound matters cause there’s proximity chat so if you use your mic and the push to talk, enemies can hear you too. All in all, PTFO and play observer when you can so your commanders can call in support on both sides.

    I like insurgency sandstorm because it's easy to load into after work and to enjoy. Updates are usually small accept for major content additions. You launch the game search for a community server and join. No waiting for matchmaking. The graphics are good and it runs nice, even if your internet connection isn't too great or have a high ping you dont rubberband or disconnect at the first network hiccup. You just click play and have fun. The overall esthetic is also realistic. The skins and character customisation makes sense to the setting. No unicorn hats or glowing RGB anywhere. It's just a good game that works well and most importantly stays fun.

    You can actually take down choppers super fast with small arms fire if the entire team shoots it espacially at the tail rotor. Even if you don't kill it, the more damaged it is the less time it spends on the map so focusing fire on it as an entire team (espacially your gunner with his PKM or MG3) is a good idea.

      ​@@viktorianas A progression loop is something tangible that provides feedback to the player.
      Skill improvement isn't enough to keep player engagement. Why? Because it's not a progression loop. It can be a piece of one but it's objectively not one by itself.
      Call of duty has in match progression loops I'm sure you're aware of called killstreaks/scorestreaks. They then have weapon unlocks, attachment unlocks, cosmetic unlocks, missions and events. Even they struggle with engagement to where they have to do a yearly release. There's no way a game with all of these progression loops being absent can retain engagement.
      Insurgency is a great game but there's a reason why it isn't very popular. That's the reason. You play one match and that's the whole gameplay loop.
