Since I didn't find any thread about it I just created it.

I won this game along with RO2 in the steam contest, but I know nothing about it.
Anyone know if it is gonna be breach or will rock like BF2?

I am trying to figure out what it will be (FPS and RTS combined, that I do know:)) and if I should get my friends excited.

How did you win RO2? I want a copy!


Also, is this the former unreleased mod for Source? Sure looks like it. I was really anticipating a release for that mod.

wishlist contest; won 5 games on my wishlist (RO2 was first of course, valve complemented me on that:p)

But yeah i think you're right on that one. I read something on their forum about it converted to the new engine. I think i read it was a mod but i can't be sure.

Nuclear dawn was a source engine mode originally. The team seemed to spend a lot of effort to hype the project and it appeared in a few magazines. Most of the 'ingame' screenshots were obviously posed models so most of the modding community remained skeptical and assumed it was vapourware. The mod leader was very vocal in his defense of the mod.

Then the few talented members of the team moved on and the head of the mod sold their assets and the IP to Interwave studios. Then after a long period of silence they released this trailer...

So the closed beta has started, anyone else playing the beta currently?

I think the game is very solid as of now, it has some bugs of course, but it runs extremely well and the gameplay is very solid.
The only problem I currently have with the game is the chat not being accesible when you're not alive (reminds me of the annoying chat of BC2) and the teams seems to be imbalanced, although a lot of people refuse to believe this. (I played 10 servers now and in every server the Empire was getting powned).

I am impressed by the game so far:D

I looked at some newer gameplay videos it seems really cool. The gameplay doesnt look as good as dystopia though and the graphics not as good as neotokyo, I was kind of hoping it would be the best of those two HL2 mods but oh well.

This game is a must BUY of this year!

It is right up there with Red Orchestra 2!

While the game needs a bit more polish and Vehicles

But From what I have heard they are adding them in when they can.

It looks like Interwave (developers of ND) have Insurgency on their website. Looks like the old INS forums are deleted :)() and they have an INS subforum on their website.

Perhaps they plan on updating INS and releasing it retail like they did with ND? If that is the case I would be interested. INS had a lot of potential.
