Yep! This still remains the best gunplay ever! Unfortunately the lack of big updates killed the game, the talented people were hired by big rival companies and they don't implement things from the mod community that have so many people doing great maps, weapons, attachments etc... its frustating in the end.

Man you rock! Only one gripe with Insurgency for casuals such as myself - I think new games could do with a feature 6 days in Fallujah has, where it randomly generates completely new structures from the previous. That way no one is rehearsed in the map like it’s their backyard.
agreed as a longtime player honestly. it gets old fast, especially on maps like hideout where you can snipe the first attacking spawn with ease. common angles get old. switching it up would make a truly dynamic experience, and players who adapt and learn quick should be rewarded with mass kills when finding new angles, that's just called skill. the old maps and ways are just set in stone and it gets stale.
Those M9 Beretta kills were clean that entire video, especially that triple kill feed, made you use your entire mag. GG’s dude, you’ve always had a keen eye for FPS games, and it most definitely shows.♥️🔥
Sandstorm is a mixed bag for me when it comes to gunplay, there's some really satisfying elements but also vice versa. If a sequel comes out (if ever?!), these things need to be fixed / be more realistic (to name a few examples): 1. Recoil patterns made (somewhat) independent from the camera (because that on it's own can't simulate realistic patterns). Main reason the FA meta exists in Sandstorm. 2. Optics not just being a texture/sprite pasted centerscreen, but actually simulated. 3. Height over bore.
Tell me a medic class wouldnt go crazy on this game like your allowed to revive within a 30 sec window frame and if they get shot in the head even after they die like they get double tapped then they cant be reviced. Thought ⁉️🤷♂️
14:16 YO!! THATS MEEE!! GUY THAT GOT SMOKED IN THE CORNER! I had literally *just* looked away from that angle and I think I was flashbanged? I just remember the dying very well, this was only recorded like 2~3 days ago
I am playing this game again after hiatus for more than a year in 2022, I don't know why I enjoyed this game more now than CoD, BF, and MoH. The other FPS game that I enjoyed playing and make me played Insurgency again are the old game Rainbow Six Vegas both 1 & 2 and Operation Flashpoint series. I've tried Arma too but that game was complex and need a lot of thinking, Insurgency for me are the borderline between the fast paced of CoD/BF and the strategic thinking of Arma but not too complicated just like Rainbox Six and Operation Flashpoint.
Seeing people say the game is dead is what kills the game, i find low levels everyday almost every match and honestly it's really on the community to hyoe these games up. This game is giving what the people want yet marketing doesn't want this game to be big otherwise this shit would be the new wave of fps, this is the love child of rainbow, csgo, and battlefield with mechanics as it's signature strong point. The graphics still compete with cod in fluidity on a ps5
I always tell my friends that if we didn’t live in such a competitive capitalist world we could see several big game studios take their strongest aspects and work together to make a perfect mega game. If there were an fps, I would have this team responsible for gunplay.
If we had competitive capitalism we would get that. There’s nothing competitive about the system we have where some people can choose who joins and who doesn’t.
game has so much more potential, just wish they gave console a bit more love, the new consoles are very powerful and the ismc mod creators said that consoles would be able to run it, it’s just down to insurgency devs
Just heard the news that NWI is getting shut down as part of the ongoing Embracer Group distaster. Major bummer and hopefully we get to see the insurgency devs make some new stuff somewhere else :(
Such a great game I just got so bored with the same thing over and over. Had they had different game modes and maps, especially larger maps with larger team I would have been hooked forever
I've just recently started focusing on weapons or methods I don't typically use. This game allows for so much flexibility in play style. Unfortunately the dev team has been downsized and all OG devs are gone. No telling where the series goes now
How the hell does your game run so smoothly? I got an fps drop every time I got shot or shot at people It's not a GPU problem either since I have a rtx 3060
If you aint 50 cal no scopin’ in close range in insurgency you playin it wrong. The OG music at the end hits hard When we gettin that hitman loadout vid?
The only thing I dislike about the gunplay in Sandstorm is that the hip-fire/point firing is kinda fucked. Even low-recoil weapons like 9mm smgs are unrealistically uncontrollable. It feels as if your character has taken the weapon out of their shoulder, and is just holding it out in front of them. Not saying it should be Tarkov-levels of point fire (Where point-fire is basically stronger than ADS), but just a little bit more under control.
Yo GIBS would you consider working with Shane and others to set up a permanent custom server to showcase modded maps (coastline, mud village, diplomacy, sultan of drugs?)
When do you think we're going to hear anything about a new game? I'm itching for something updated, everything else is going huge combined arms (squad, OHD, etc), PVE only, or CallOfDuty. There's really no other infantry focused games available with realistic TTK available out there.
I’d guess sometime 2024 because of the pace Sandstorms announcements have been in terms of slowing down. But this is just a guess, I haven’t heard anything yet.
Love this game start with that but these guys are military contractors from an era where you have to have HELLA combat experience, identifiers, and preferred SOF to even be considered for pick up WHY ARE THE RELOADS SO SLOW
the king returns
It seems that two absolute UNITS have arrived in this comment section.

Dude that modern mod is so crazy it could be a sandstorm 3 if the developers get their heads out their azz
All they have to do is hire the modders and the game is going to explode idk why people don’t do that then blame the players for when the game dies

Facts😂
Operationharshdoorstop can be a game with great things guys. If we sopport it. Its free and the game developers are also the modders.
I just started playing this game after taking a 6 month break from competitive shooters and I gotta say this is waay better then COD

Ohhh that's cool, I didn't know 6 days did that
What about pvp though?
@@cormacdrennan8103it should be in pvp too. any pro league match for any fps is just nerds prefiring common angles
@@MightbePettingmyCat Thats not how counter strike is played?

Keep this up, we need more and more people on this!
One of my most played games on my PS5, and started enjoying it on PC with mods recently too. Just so enjoyable.
Sandstorm has the most satisfying gunplay IMO, you have to actually think and not call of duty charge into the objective like a mad man.
This game is fucking CRIMINALLY underrated. Favourite game on PC
bro, not only ur skill but ur game sense and decision making are insane
Your videos keep my Sandstorm hopes alive!
I still play this game all the time. Best gunplay out there.
Imagine someone made a game with dayz/arma open world, insurgency gunplay and tarkov mechanics.

the insurgent side waves hummus under the nose of their downed guy, and the security side waves a burger under the nose of their downed guy
@@Ritual744jajaja
Chris Kyle shot across the map. “Yup dropped him” 😂😂
Headshot during the reload with one last round in the chamber of the m9…
glad to see you playing again got really good bcuz of you
actually made few friends in the past few weeks playing this great game again. i love the PVE mode especially with a proper tactical team :D

@8:40 LOL poor guy reaped the rewards of Gibby's maneuvers.
Yes! Revive the player base once again! I want more ambush servers
MGE Gibs returned to his habitat
Ooooh snap ! He's back at it !
Hell yes! I just played today for the first time in a long time. I miss this game and your videos.
Good to see you on it.
Good to see you back. You make me think I can hop on and play like you lol
old insurgency too
Dude WTF you shoot the shit out that M9
I have a new OLED monitor and I'm tempted and also terrified to try a nighttime operation on this game.
the music in the last clip gave me serious nostalgia
I come back for the sounds in this game once in a while
Facts.
He returns
man, i remember when insurgency was just a mod for cs:s. I used to love playing it back in the day in the early days of steam
you play like a ninja dude. always flanking with a suppressed mosin, and your opponents don't see you
Oh hey that me at the end.
some nutty spray transfers
It's almost hard to watch the other team get slaughtered so bad.
I recently just discovered sandstorm it is truly awesome!
The homie is back
hipfiring in this game feels godly
game has so much more potential, just wish they gave console a bit more love, the new consoles are very powerful and the ismc mod creators said that consoles would be able to run it, it’s just down to insurgency devs
That 6min kill man i jizzed
"Best gunplay in 2023"
Doing what?
Camping their spawn?
Prime gunplay right there.
Just heard the news that NWI is getting shut down as part of the ongoing Embracer Group distaster. Major bummer and hopefully we get to see the insurgency devs make some new stuff somewhere else :(
God bro seeing these kills are so damn great! Good to see you on this amazing game brother 😎
These flank plays in restricted areas are crazy. Gave me some new ways to play ❤️
The frickin zombie mode was mad fun
Such a great game I just got so bored with the same thing over and over. Had they had different game modes and maps, especially larger maps with larger team I would have been hooked forever
Problem for me is the player count which reduces with time, getting killed by same veteran players is a problem
I've just recently started focusing on weapons or methods I don't typically use. This game allows for so much flexibility in play style. Unfortunately the dev team has been downsized and all OG devs are gone. No telling where the series goes now
Damn you’re so good at this game!! I’m still a little new to it but I hope to get as good as you! Subscribed 😮
How the hell does your game run so smoothly? I got an fps drop every time I got shot or shot at people
It's not a GPU problem either since I have a rtx 3060
I think you need to watch your settings, because I've got only a 1060 and my game is nice smooth after some work there
Here’s an old settings video. Shadows on low is definitely the best. th-cam.com/video/_LtzI5l3048/w-d-xo.htmlsi=skefCEjztnvy-Jk_
On sale for $10 on steam for the next 13 hours.
Muddafukka point blanking witha 50 cal
More vids of this game!! Awesome gameplay!
If you aint 50 cal no scopin’ in close range in insurgency you playin it wrong.
The OG music at the end hits hard
When we gettin that hitman loadout vid?
Gunna be a while until I do a loadout video like that, got a lot of stuff coming up but it’s definitely on the list
The GOAT has returned
this game isn't dead yet, but I already miss it
Appreciate that you still play the game nce in a while. Needed this after MW3 shitshow......
MGE Gibs posting an Insurgency: Sandstorm video. Today is a good day.
Great cap at ending.
Yes, Insurgency Sandstorm is awesome
only if the took out the STUPID CONSTANT SCREAMING!!
I want them too give up somthing soon for ps5 a new insurgency but with jungle maps or desert would be awesome
imagine arma 3 with this gunplay
0:08 como le hago zoom a un arma en xbox??
Pistols might as well just be SMGs in your hands goddamn
Watching you play is fun, but somehow I don't miss the jankiness of the game enough to play it myself…
Janky for what
Hell let loose has great gun play too
My first 10 games on this I went like 5 - 20 KD but had more fun than any shooter I’d played 😂
What is the biggest difference between this game and the original insurgency when it comes to hit damage?
He's back!! 😢
just so you know, you the fucking Monster! good game mate!
I wish it had kill confirmations... it would make it more satisfying maybe
No your kill confirmation are your and your buddies eyes and instinct.
players seeing how good GIBs is then joining a game against a stack of players that are equally good or better XD
best shooter ever
Good game. Glad I bought it
The only thing I dislike about the gunplay in Sandstorm is that the hip-fire/point firing is kinda fucked. Even low-recoil weapons like 9mm smgs are unrealistically uncontrollable.
It feels as if your character has taken the weapon out of their shoulder, and is just holding it out in front of them. Not saying it should be Tarkov-levels of point fire (Where point-fire is basically stronger than ADS), but just a little bit more under control.
Still needs advanced controls settings on xbox. No deadzone settings make this shit impossible to play.
It’s on pc?
Yo GIBS would you consider working with Shane and others to set up a permanent custom server to showcase modded maps (coastline, mud village, diplomacy, sultan of drugs?)
Seems like fun, i believe shane has me on discord if he wants to hit me up more about it
nice
ARE YU INSANE TARKOV HAS THE BEST GUNPLAY IN 2023
Help you
guns literally have no recoil
Ps4 , is still worth ?
Are people still playing on PS5?
This game is absolutely going to die on console because of a lack of private matches
He’s back🥲
Still the best realistic shooter game!
Imagine if they had a looter shooter fr
When do you think we're going to hear anything about a new game? I'm itching for something updated, everything else is going huge combined arms (squad, OHD, etc), PVE only, or CallOfDuty. There's really no other infantry focused games available with realistic TTK available out there.
I’d guess sometime 2024 because of the pace Sandstorms announcements have been in terms of slowing down. But this is just a guess, I haven’t heard anything yet.
On mouse and keyboard maybe. Try using a controller and see what you say after that.
Just need graphics upgrade for PS5 pls 🙏
Well rip this game. Asian servers have been empty for over a year, so ive stopped playing this one
Better gunplay in rising storm 2 Vitenam
You’re tripping 😂
definitely the best arcadey gunplay
but Squad's new Infantry Combat Overhaul makes it BY FAR the most realistic...
Don't need a game like that
Love this game start with that but these guys are military contractors from an era where you have to have HELLA combat experience, identifiers, and preferred SOF to even be considered for pick up WHY ARE THE RELOADS SO SLOW
Nice and clean 👍
