Much like the first game, Insurgency: Sandstorm features multiple multiplayer PvP modes where you’re either trying to blow up caches or take over points as the Security forces, or defend said caches and capture flags as Insurgents.
It looked fantastic on my PC gaming laptop. Much like the first game, Insurgency, which was originally a Source mod, this sequel is powered with Unreal Engine graphics and you can really tell that the visuals have been significantly upgraded. Insurgency: Sandstorm features two main teams-the Security and Insurgent forces-and pits them against each other over six desert-like maps which are set in a fictitious location somewhere in the Middle-East. I played the heck out of it anyway since it was a nice break from all of the other more generic shooters out there. There were a lot of issues going on with the game’s framerate and some bugs such as textures glitching in and out when they initially loaded in. Personally, I thought the critics were right. Some gamers felt that the game would have greatly benefited from a little more time in the development oven before being unleashed upon the masses.
Its launch didn’t go quite as expected for many, however. Insurgency: Sandstorm hit the first-person shooter world by storm last September (2018 that is) and quickly captured the attention of hardcore shooter fans. New World Interactive/Focus Home Interactive
