    Default Insurgency

    Anyone who has any source-based game needs to grab this mod, now

    Quite possibly the best sourcemod out to date, ins focuses on infantry combat in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's very geared to realism, with one or two hits being fatal and players being forced to use a minimal hud (including no map, no teammate identifiers, and no crosshair).

    The gameplay itself is best described as a cross between DODS and RO, with players dieing extremely easily as they fight to capture control areas in a certain order. The front then moves upon capture of an area, taking the combat to a new location.

    Considering that the game is currently at its first beta stage, it's looking exceptionally polished, and if you've got any source-based game (ie css, dods, hl2, ep1 etc), I'd encourage you to grab the Source SDK base from steam and the mod from insmod.net and get playing

    You are saying that any Source-based game can execute the mod without any direct monetary compensation involved by the consumer to the creators? If true, this is a splendid thing indeed, and... I... I... must... not... fall.... into... I must not.... download... and.... arrrgh!

    There are a number of screenshots and further information there. Does look promising.

    I, too, will have a go at it one of those days. As soon as I read about squad-based tactics, command, and such, it became much more interesting.

    Its a very good game with only a few annoying bugs. Which is great considering its only beta 1.1

    In this case, waiting is good, as the longer you wait, the less CS players remain ingame by the time you play
