Ive never used any 'mods' for games. Really enjoy HL2 and read abit about this mod for it.

Is it free?

Is it just a multi-player?

How do you get it running?
 
Yes you need steam and HL2.

You shouldn't have to subscribe to any of the sites.
Get the installer from here:
ftp://ftp.multiplay.co.uk/pub/games/fps/halflife2/mods/insurgency/Insurgency_Beta1_Client.exe

And the 1.1 patch from here:
http://www.steamfriends.com/downloads/p13_sectionid/13/p13_fileid/51

And yes, this is THE best mod i've ever played for hl2. I feel like i'm cheating the devs by not paying them! You will probably find it quite challenging at first but stick with it, it's very rewarding when you learn to play it properly. Bear in mind that this is still in the beta stages and so still a bit buggy, performance is also an issue with some setups.
 
Cheers Mark, I take the idea is your in a team and you need to kill the other team to win?
That's the idea, but it depends on the game mode as well. You need to capture objectives etc or play in an attack/defend situation. The game is heavily team based, it's very difficult to run off and try to attack on your own.
 
Anyone know when the next patch is due for this game, I'm enjoying it but some more maps and patch would be even better :D
 
you need to download the Source Base SDK as well one you've got halflife 2 or episode 1 or whatever you decide on.

It's under the tools tab on steam.

There are quite a few issues with INS at the moment, server crashes, connection problems etc etc but as has been said, it is a great mod, and great fun to play...especially if you find a server with several people using voice coms!!!

Not to sure how you download the patch, after you click that link then, Insurgency 1.1 Client patch, then what Modifications?

Don't click on 'insurgency 1.1 client patch'. Scroll down the page and click on 'Download now' above the nuclear fallout ad.
 
For some reason I can't even get HL2 installed. Tried twice and vista hangs and crashes.

I installed steam with my graphics card drivers.

Yeah found that, 'Source Base SDK' why do I need it?

Edit, by the way got HL" installed last night after a number off attempts!
 
The next patch is probably due around mid/late October.

Cant come soon enough. Great graphics but its dam confusing and frustrating to play, also seems repetitive.

NO idea what that bar at the top is supposed to mean neither :o

Beta 2, coming out this October, will see some major bugs fixed:


• Aiming with all weapons has been fixed
• Fixed Spawn Protection
• Insurgency will now support third-party TK protection systems, and will come with one in the default installation
• All the maps have been revised and tweaked wherever necessary
• Damage system has been improved
• The scoring system should now work properly
• Player viewheight is fixed
• Fixed loading Screen shows map info of LASTMAP instead of NEXTMAP
• Fixed the bug where dead players/bodies could capture objectives
• Fixed spawning inside other players
• Fixed the bug where grenades sometimes didn't make sound after bouncing off objects
• All objectives are now listed in the commander menu
• The M203 will now reload the 3rd grenade properly
• A primed grenade will now explode if you die
• Fixed several reported crashes

Not all is bug-fixing! There's some extra stuff as well:

• New HUD elements that will help you navigate
• Basic overhead map
• Re-Styling and re-skinning throughout the game.
• Commander promotion system
• Fast switching
• You no longer have to hit the forward key before being able to sprint
 
Is there a Sniper in this? I can only always choose engineer really. Even at the start of the rounds I hit the class key right away and all thats left is engineer and marksman...
