It just came out Monday, I've been playing it the past 2 days, and man it's pretty sweet.
Basically the mod is set in the modern day, with Marines against Iraqi Insurgents. It's by far the most realistic game I've ever played. DoD with the realism mod doesn't even come close to matching Insurgency. No crosshairs, meaning you have to use iron sights if you want hit anything. If you kill someone, it doesn't tell you like in DoD and CS, the only way to know if you got the guy you're shooting at is if you see his body slump to the ground.
Even the objectives, instead of some flag sitting in the middle of an alley, you actually have to capture buildings and areas like that.
The game is extremely difficult, you HAVE to stay in cover if you want to stay alive. You can't run and gun like in DoD or you'll get your ass handed to you... That's probably my favorite thing about the game. I've always hated the way people who play assault in DoD can just run around firing full auto with no problem, but in this mod you can't do that and expect to live.
The graphics look excellent, the gameplay is fun, and the sounds... my god talk about immersion. Best weapon sounds of any game I've played. In a full 16 v 16 game, it's crazy as hell. You can hear everyone's gun firing on the map, no matter how far away you are from them.
If you check this mod out, I should mention that it's still very early in its development. There are bugs that have to be worked out, but it's only the first beta release, and in time this game is going to be one of the best HL2 mods ever released.
Not to mention, we have a couple of guys in the service, and they might take an interest in it.
