Should we make Insurgency our official game and get a team going and play nights set up?

    Since there seems to be a sudden outpouring of FPS members, and many have either hinted at or said they dont want to get a team going for Global Offensive, what do you all think of Insurgency instead? The game is pretty interesting and has a good skill curve to the game, a very tactical feel that rewards strong team coordination, and has good combat and interesting game modes and level design. The game is still in it's infancy but it is already growing in userbase and there is talk in various forums about wanting it to become an eSport game. Have any of you played the game recently? What do you think about this game for getting things going?

    Anyone want to play tomorrow night to try out the game? Star at about 8pm EST?

    This game is fun. It reminds me of the old days of Raven Shield and Athena's Sword.

    I'll be on, and tried to get some of the PS2 guys in as well. I like the learning curve of this game. I find my self having to get a feel and learn the maps. 10/10, Very Tactical.

    A few of us have it. It's a lot more "tactical" than other games and its one life per round. The PvE is fun but really only if you have a group of friends. All it takes is one idiot running through the map with a loud weapon to get everyone killed.

    Insurgency is on Humble Bundle right now, 4 copies of it with 1 bundle. You can pick up all the copies for just $1 if you wanted to, but Id encourage anyone who buys it to give more for charity:

    Well I might have been interested earlier if I was not removed from the FPS dev a few months back... Even though I was not active on the forums I did watch what threads were being created via email...
