The server populations tend to very a lot. When I first started playing a month ago, there were 3-4 populated PvP servers at any given time, but they were all ~140 ping to me (europe, I'm guessing) and only 1-2 populated coop servers.

Now theres only 1-2 populated servers at any given time, but I get 80 ping, and then there's like 10 coop servers with 2-3 people in them each and pings between 80 and 140.

It's like the yank influx scared off the euro guys and now they just play coop.

To its credit, coop is pretty fun even with only 2-3 people, especially since the bots are more challenging than in i.e. Rainbow Six Vegas. Coop is also more conducive to teamwork on pubs.

I made a "little" video with a giveaway. I don't like the weapon "handling" (not the shooting but holding the gun going into iron sight). It feels kinda buggy and wrong compared to RO2. [Giveaway] Insurgency 2 Early Access | Highlights - YouTube

You guys have convinced me to pre order this, I played the original like mad and loved it. Also does this have 3D VOIP?

Never heard anyone speaking yet but I'm sure it's in. The description also says "Highly immersive audio with 3D VOIP to coordinate with and track other player".

So, is this worth a punt? Only heard about it in the last couple of days, thinking it might be a nice change of pace from RO2 while maintaining some realism. I'm particularly interested in the weapon handling, might give it a try.

New update released including a VIP game mode and a "defend against waves of insurgents" COOP mode, in many ways similar to KF ^^. Personally I love VIP, I really like that the objective is to kill or defend another actual human being sitting at his/her computer somewhere in the world :p.

Just bought into early access. Haven't seen anything to disappoint, so that's good news. Good performance and no issues detected by me, after an afternoon's playing. And a developer - Argyll if I recall - came to play. Someone asked him if they have plans to make the power slide shatter windows. When he said it wasn't in the works I asked for a refound.

So yeah, looking good.

It's in early access, and there's no telling how many people are holding off. Also, can we stop calling every game that doesn't meet an arbitrary number of concurrent players dead? People have been saying that non-stop about RO2 and yet I never find myself wanting for either RS or HoS, campaign or territory, from Europe or North America. What is dead is classic in NA, can't find a server unless I'm willing to try to kickstart an empty server.

1000 players + (in RO2) is far from dead. But 100 players world wide looks like dead game to me.

Isn't stopping me from joining a versus or coop match with a decent player count any realistic time of the day. That makes the game dead in Australia or Asia.
