Title:
Insurgency
Platform:
PC
Who:
You the special operations soldier. First-person.
What:
Tactical player-versus-player and player-versus-bots combat.
When:
Released 2014.
Where:
Various middle-eastern looking cities. Maps are limited by restricted zones and invisible walls, but otherwise large maps provide for interesting bottle-necks and long-range encounters.
Why:
Battlefield 4 is expensive, and doesn't have bots.
Significance:
Only a few first-person shooter games in the counter-terrorism category allow for cooperative combat against a common enemy.
Pros:
Fantastically challenging A.I. Intricate maps and nice visuals. A good use of weapon sounds. One shot kills.
Cons:
A.I. gets to cheat by seeing through smoke, fire, bushes, pitch-black darkness, and dead bodies. An appalling lack of weapon choices. Game design choices around respawn time, loadout limits, and map boundaries is disappointing.
