HL2 Mod: Insurgency!

http://www.insurgencymod.net/

VERY interesting, in that you have to earn leadership points in order to take certain roles within the game. You wanna be a sniper? You can't do that until you reach a certain rank. Wanna be the commander? Same thing. Riflemen, corpsmen and support roles, for example, are available to the newbies...

This mod sounds like it's right up TG's alley!

From the Balkans to Iraq to Chechnya, join as either an Unconventional or Conventional team that caters to both casual and tactical gamers.

Intense realism will keep you alert as you and your team seeks out to accomplish the mission's objectives. Specified roles are included within each Squad that make up your team's Platoon. Command and control from a 4-soldier Fireteam, to an 8-soldier Squad, up to a 32-soldier Platoon. A unique point system will ensure that online combat veterans will be rewarded for their leadership and tactical abilities so that they can rise through the ranks and command the platoon. The conventional teams are designed to cater to tactical gamers -- those who use real tactics, demonstrate leadership, and use teamwork.


Grab a hold of an RPG-7 or other weapons in the arsenal and join the fight using guerrilla tactics against the powerful enemy. Ride in a technical with a mounted machine gun, fire RPGs at enemy infantry and vehicles, or set up a machine gun to ambush the enemy. The unconventional teams are designed to cater to casual gamers -- those who use hit and run tactics, lone wolf players, and regular FPS players.

Well, we've had a HL2 multiplayer game here at TG for a couple of months now... We're trying to convert people to our tactical style of play, and it's slowly but surely changing the way we want it to. We've got new members here due to HL2, though and I think it will only become more popular!

That's kinda what I thought, but it hasn't really been my favorite style of game in the past. I just bought a new vid card online last night and it comes with HL2 so I'm sure I'll see you all there.

Doesn't the mod in this thread sound good, though. The first thing I thought of was that this could be the game that brings the HL and the GR people together here!
