Insurgency Mod ... EPIC THREAD OF DOOM

[Grobut]

How is HL2 generic? It's the first game that made physics part of gameplay, and beside that the story is pretty cool if you ask me, but ok.

Well, i'll let you have the story, as its really a matter of opinion wether one likes it or not, lets instead look at gameplay mechanics.. well i'll be brief, its so bloody bland you could play HL2 on a Console! infact, its allready been ported as i recall.

That has to be the deathblow for any PC-shooter, if its even remotely playable on a console, then you failed.

Well, you could even make Red Orchestra work on a console without too much effort.
Perhaps you'll run short of keys and such., but it could be done.

Without aimsupport or any of those gizmo's.


Half-Life 2 IS a good game, albeit a bit lineair... But in this case, the lineair part doesn't matter, because Half-Life 2 would probably suck as a sandbox-type game.

As pointless as defining it as a bad game since it's just a matter of taste. I think it was the same boring shooting gallery action with few cinematic moments and puzzles.

Take out the cinematic moments and puzzles and RO would fit in your definition aswell.

However, as you said taste defines the opinions over games.

I wounder if this mod is really comming out in June?
23rd now and still no exact release date, but denying that they want to create a hype...yeah right!

 

[Rak]

And demanding a "donation" from community is great for them as well. http://forums.insmod.net/index.php?showtopic=4637&st=40&#entry89767

Will it ever be out in June?

 

[BadKarma]

How convienient for them! So the power supply died, well i think it

 

[Lt_Kettch]

I just hope they release it before the RO mods because if not I never gonna play it

 

[spraduke]

LoL at Special Case???? Wtf all Cases that i know off take a bog standard PSU and you dont need a case to run a pc (at a lan i went to one guy had all his components in a carboard keyboard box ).

It does seem a little too "Bad timing" with extra flakyness on top.

 

[Nimsky]

They said it will be out in SUMMER 2007, not June.

Expect beginning of September, that would be more realistic I think.

Lol @ that thread. "My power supply died, please send me one, total stranger! I would buy one myself but I spent all of my money on my girlfriend!"

ololol.

 

[Rak]

They said June, in case you missed.

 

[Monkwarrior]

I say sex

They said June, take a look at the front page of http://www.insurgencymod.net/.

Hey Folks!

It's been a long time coming, but the pieces are finally coming together here at Insurgency mod.
I'm pleased to say that there's a real buzz of energy and excitement between the Developers and Testers that you can really feel.
This is because we're very close to the release of the mod! (June 2007)

To celebrate our imminent release, We've launched our brand new website! and with it brings a whole host of new content!

 

[Nimsky]

June 2007? Hmm, in an interview they said this:

We know the forums strictly prohibit it, but what the hell. Can you let us know of a possible public release date for Insurgency Mod?
Summer of 2007

But that was and older interview - from May 4. So you're right.

Oh well, who still believes in INS's PR talk? Well, apart from the fanboys that is.

They shouldn't give a hard release date until they 100% know for sure that it's done. Even if they can't make it before the end of June, they should just tell the fans. I'm not buying the "broken power supply" excuse. You can just buy a new one.

 

[Moz]

INS to community.



F__K YOU.

 

[Rak]

Yeah, that's a polite way to put it.

 

[Sclass12]

Guy now says his computer is up and running again.

Will they still make the June deadline? We shall have to see...

 

[spraduke]

Its all like a cheap TV Soap

 

[PsYcH0_Ch!cKeN]

Hehe, you're not wrong! So what does everyone reckon?

"It WAS going to be out, but the powersupply episode put us a couple of days behind schedule and since we went into July anyway, we figured 'what the hell' and decided to just make it as good as we possibly can. It'll be out by Christmas. Probably."

Any takers?

 

[Athena]

Any takers?

I say it'll most surely be released on 02.30.2008.
