I play so much that I get tired of it and then take like a two month break and then repeat, the community is where it’s at. I love most of the interactions. And you can see that they actually cared about the game when they were making it. Wish they had more updates.
The cell-phone bombers are among the best features of this games. Sudden escalation of intensity like none other. The voice lines are superbly well done and immersive. Outstanding game. Music choices are spot on too, classic Fallout music is appreciated.
Insurgency is an underrated masterpiece. You forgot to mention the fun party game modes that come out every couple months, "seal team 666" is my favorite. And hot potato is always good for laughs with the bois
I used to think "why isn't this game more popular" but now that I think about it, I'm glad it isn't. fame would only incentivate devs to ruin the game, put microtransactions, put a battle pass, stuff like that, and I'm playing this game exactly because it doesn't, on top of all the other reasons
does a lot better than most popular shooters: Guns sound actually realistic, co-op is there and pretty fun for people who play PVE only, you can basically create your own character with different types of gear unlike in cod or the final descendent where you boot into the lobby and everyone is the same character.
Really really happy that more and more youtubers cover sandstorm. Community has been very divisive over the years, alot of frustrations from the players towards devs, there's many holes to poke in sandstorm. But there's STILL somehow some youtubers who just come back to it and make a vid or two. That alone speaks volumes, at least in my opinion. Thank you very much Bliss, and thank you youtube algorithm, for showing me this video. Some criticism, re-running the same clip from your gameplay is fine, especially for when what you're currently talking about, the clip has an example of. But not after the fifth time. Just..get more footage.
I have many hours on this game and I can't seem to find any shooters that I find enjoyable like Sandstorm. The Maps, the voice acting, the reload animations, the gunfights, the sound of the guns, the sound of your character being temporarily deafened by a grenade, the gore,. I'll complain about how broken the bots are in a hardcore lobby just to come back the next day and play it for hours lmfao.
This game is literally like titanfall in the way that everyone loves it but nobody plays it Also there's some depth with the observer class that he can use smokes to block the binoculars and cause the commander to call fire support on the smoke. I use it when I make someone into the commander and they're not really good in general so I can tell them hey just call it on the smokes and make it a day
Insurgency Sandstorm is rad! But they really need to fix the way loadouts are saved and give you your upgrade points on the home screen so you can customize and save without actually being in a lobby. It sucks starting a match and having to rebuild your setup. They also need 2 marksmen so you eliminate the single dude hiding off objective. And make the dlc skins and stuff actually work. Mine wont work currently. Albeit I'm playing on Series X with game pass so maybe thats part of the issue?
I’ve played the game for a while now I can agree on the things u talked about I do wish the game did offer a lil more of a storyline to draw ppl in like escape from Tarkov n maybe more weapons
Best FPS on console hands down. I want a gaming PC cause there are other great games but on PS my options are limited. I also play checkpoint. It’s a good game but best thing is mostly not COD kids screaming and most people play somewhat tacticool but if lucky you’ll play with people who really play tactically sound and that’s always fun.
i love co-op sandstorm i just wish they'd work on how the ai will just pour down the same lanes repetitively and all at once when you're defending cause there's really often that one person mowing down the entire enemy spawns as their walking out of their cover all as a group so predictably and you won't be able to get a single kill it gets really boring really fast to me. but then yeah versus is really tryhard
Even though i dont like developers for certain issues they made an amazing game and especially first insurgency just built different. Until last year it was alive but for some reason it died. İ wish i could play it again with crowd lobbies
I'd really recommend you getting the PC version, the ISMC modpack alone has enough content there to last you for ages. I bought it for 10€ online and can run it at 1080p/60fps on an i5 3570 with 12gb of DDR3-1600 and a GTX 1650 LP GPU. My rig is in modern gaming terms what you would call a toaster (the 3570 is 11 years old at this point.) and can still play just fine with no stutters. It's quite well optimized nowadays.
I just played 3 rounds coop and ist was Boring. But i made 460 hours in pvp, and you know what? Im still scared in i getting ambushed, Ort being shoot at. The Sound design is awesome
PvP its most intense and challenging and keeps IS alive.Game modes as Domination it’s just to warm up and Push/Firefight/Skirmish/Frontline u learning to whoop asses
I've over 100+ hrs on Steam and WAYY more on ps4. It's such a simple, yet intense shooter when u get into it. Hopefully it gets more updates after Embracer shut down. Deserves the spotlight way more than these stupid AAA 'coverart' games
i have 3k hours total in both insurgency games but sandstorm's coop is not what people make it up to be imo because AI is sewerely stupid they either stay in one spot and wait for you to kill them or just shoot you while running with whatever weapon they using 2014 insurgency's AI is the best imo because they allways try to flank you,supress you or camp in corners for you to come other than AI insurgency is made for pvp imo because there is no such game that has the realism-arcade mechanichs at the same time or balanced like insurgency
@BlissTB fr they made a statement saying that playstation is way harder to port games to and it would cost a lot to have full function crossplay because an Xbox is pretty much a mini pc. And that it's easier to port games from a Microsoft based system to another Microsoft based system.playstation has fallen behind massively when it comes to crossplay, pc and xbox users can play r6, ark, forza,ao4,AOL, gang beast and deep rock galactic to name a small few
As a veteran PVE player, about 80% of this vid is good info. But I can't agree with anything u said about the current state of the game regarding development.
No game is tactical the way people play them. If people actually cooperate and, y'know, use tactics, then the game is tactical whether it's realistic or not. "Tactical" in gaming parlance just means LARPing as special forces
The game modes really suck. Its not kill based, it just revolves around rushing a point on the map and being able to camp there for as long as possible. Its so boring dying over and over again trying to take a single point. Its an awesome game dont get me wrong, compared to the other trash out there. But why not have smaller S&D modes, like tactical 5v5 last man standing type of modes? It just feel like a shitty Battlefield game. Also snipers are completely useless since you have to push to win, and there are no good sniping spots because the maps are most close quarters
game abandoned as soon as it came out on console. an update every six months, problems solved after numerous tickets? almost nothing. after 3 years we still see bots killing while aiming at the sky or the ground. grenades thrown at the feet with a laser aim without being seen by a bot. more than artificial intelligence I could talk about artificial degradation. It wouldn't take much to fix the AI. add some maps with a lot of vegetation (otherwise many camouflages make no sense) and it would be more enjoyable. hardcore co-op and the best mode. ( by xbox player level over 1800)
The fact that you can shit talk your enemy directly trough mic anytime when close to them is so great
Even if you have no mic, you have the intimidate lines lol
Any youtuber who plays halo music in the background of non-halo videos always earns a sub from me 👍

that drawing looks like it was presented in family court
Love the ODST tune in the back. Nice video my man!
im so glad some one made a video made about this great game, I've been playing it again recently and its soo good
I can never get enough

Yeah this game is brutal getting into but is a blast when you get comfortable.
this game deserved so much more support than it got, still a top 10
game for me
192 subs is criminal. Not a big sandstorm fan. Would love to see a squad video in your style 🤙🏻
I hate the prison map
I love and hate it. It's great for close quarters, but it has the most SHIT spawns I swear lol
I hate it too
Try the shotgun on Prison. It goes hard.
@@ShawnB..scum
Fuck the prison map

I forgot about that lol, I mainly play rifleman tbh
I love sandstorm for completely different reasons in mostly competitive multiplayer and only some co op. Such a great game.
I saw the thumbnail and went into hysterics 😅 Subbed

I love this game so much it has became my favorite shooter I love pvp and the co op beautiful game to
The game was great, before the kids started playing it😢
I’ve played the game for a while now I can agree on the things u talked about I do wish the game did offer a lil more of a storyline to draw ppl in like escape from Tarkov n maybe more weapons
That’s good to know, I was wondering what was going on with this game as news hasn’t really been updated

best fps for easy tactical jump in gameplay out rn
Even though i dont like developers for certain issues they made an amazing game and especially first insurgency just built different. Until last year it was alive but for some reason it died. İ wish i could play it again with crowd lobbies
i love this game but when i play theres so many people who look like theyve never touched a controller otherwise its one of the goats
It’s a great game with no silly bits!!
Best fps game by far.

The best game of all time!!! We need more games on ps4-ps5 !!!
I just played 3 rounds coop and ist was Boring. But i made 460 hours in pvp, and you know what? Im still scared in i getting ambushed, Ort being shoot at. The Sound design is awesome
ODST music gained you a sub
Love the video keep it up
I have a question to everyone here. Gp or wp?
Downloaded this game two days ago and im addicted 😭
That's how they get you lol
Played 2 games of PvP and went 26:12 in my second game. Im in love and will have to check out co op
It's my fave FPS. But I wish it had the guns and customization of Tarkov!
PvP its most intense and challenging and keeps IS alive.Game modes as Domination it’s just to warm up and Push/Firefight/Skirmish/Frontline u learning to whoop asses
Chicken joe approved
wait wait, are you playing insurgency on a CONTROLLER?!?!?
OH NO NO NO NO
You fear that which you do not understand, mortal
@@BlissTB lol, as long as you're having fun we're all good :)
I love this game. Only do pve co-op but it's the funnest (I know it's not a real word) game I have. It's so corny it's funny.
I've over 100+ hrs on Steam and WAYY more on ps4. It's such a simple, yet intense shooter when u get into it.
Hopefully it gets more updates after Embracer shut down. Deserves the spotlight way more than these stupid AAA 'coverart' games
could be a vet of pvp insurgency have atleast 15k kills
same. 16k kills (3.020 k/d) and never used commander once.
Just picked up the game it’s fun
"I havent touched pvp because its not my cup of tea" sees hes on console makes sense
im on pc and i got like 2 hours on pvp lmao
I'm on console and I barely touch co-op, over level 200 for mp
i have 3k hours total in both insurgency games but sandstorm's coop is not what people make it up to be imo because AI is sewerely stupid they either stay in one spot and wait for you to kill them or just shoot you while running with whatever weapon they using 2014 insurgency's AI is the best imo because they allways try to flank you,supress you or camp in corners for you to come other than AI insurgency is made for pvp imo because there is no such game that has the realism-arcade mechanichs at the same time or balanced like insurgency
Why do i here the insurgents sometimes shouting russian words
VinylicPumaGaming that u?
I swear I never knew who that was until I started making videos lol, can confirm we are two different people
Lol nice vid man
Last I checked PlayStation players couldn’t play with Xbox players… has this changed recently?
Yeah it's crossplay now lol
@BlissTB with xbox and pc only playstation players play with themselves
That's lame as fuck, I hope they include playstation at some point

I think u should've mentioned the bullshit bots, broken restricted areas and abuseable bot spawns.
feels like wallhack is mandatory in this xD
There are unfortunately pay to win. Ghillie skin.
As someone who owns the ghillie suit, you can customize your guy to blend in almost as well
Rainbow six siege is tactical?
Idk how else you'd describe it lol
No game is tactical the way people play them. If people actually cooperate and, y'know, use tactics, then the game is tactical whether it's realistic or not. "Tactical" in gaming parlance just means LARPing as special forces
No, but Insurgency Sandstorm is 😏
R6 was tactical, back then

Go play call of duty
@Thedunguen9999 i did and its 10x worse 🤮
Sandstorm is major lameness. Go play the "first one". Or even the actual first one (original HL2 mod) is better
Loser
(x) to doubt
I legit took your advice and downloaded the source mod, but it's a dead game sadly :(
