I started playing Insurgency: Modern Infantry Combat many, many years ago as a mod. As soon as I heard they were making a standalone, I bought it without thinking twice. Throughout early access the developers listened to what the community had to say and made changes accordingly. I have heard the developers say several times that they 'made it to play it.' This is the best mindset a developer could have, and it shows. Even though the kickstarter for Insurgency failed, the developers managed to keep it alive long enough to enter early access on steam. Their dedication to this game is really amazing.

The game has a minimal HUD, meaning your screen isn't cluttered up with useless things, such as a minimap. They also implemented a 3D VOIP system that allows you to hear anyone, including the enemy, at a realistic distance. If you decide to talk to a squad member over the radio and an enemy just so happens to be on the other side of a doorway, good luck. It requires a good amount of teamwork and communication in order to win.

There are a large amount of original game modes. Some of these modes were taken directly from the mod (such as Push), and some are brand new (Ambush). All of the game modes have a unique twist, and are mostly based off of capturing points, rather than getting kills.

One of the main problems I had with Red Orchestra 2 was the super clunky movement controls. This game has very smooth controls, while still maintaining a more realistic movement speed. You will find it necessary to decide whether to rush an enemy, or wait for the enemy to move up.

When Insurgency was released from early access, the developers decided that it was in their best interest to LOWER THE PRICE. Games that come out of early access almost always RAISE their prices. But, doing so increased the playerbase and helped secure the game's longevity. If that's not dedicated, I don't know what is.

This game is easily up there with the $60 games, and you can get it for 15 bucks or less. I have played over 600 hours, and I loved every minute.
