Been playing INS while PoE2 is down

for the last few days no one was playing PoE2, so I downloaded the latest version of INS.
Its the best one yet but they still need to fix a few things.

I love the new map. Forget the name, starts with an S. You battle first for a small bridge. Bridge is cool you can fight on it, under it or below it. Then you go thru a cool little village with a river next to it. A huge oil derek across the river.
Then finally a wide open safe house. The map feels different from any other INS map and I like it.

I still dont like how objective areas are not clear. No smoke like a squad leader has in PoE2/BF2. No big markings like in Counter Strike. No Glowing flag like in TFC. I would like to see them make the objective obvious like a table with Blueprints on it marked Top Seceret. Or a file cabinet with a drawer open and a folder half pulled out marked Top Seceret. Or a weapons cache or briefcase full of money etc.

Overall fun fun mod. My favorite mod narrowly edging out FF. Hostile Intent 2 will rival it if its ever released

Thanks Gogeta. Thats the only new map Ive played so far. Are there any others?
What do you think doesnt Buhriz "feel" cool and different (almost like it is on HL3)?

yea, I really like that map. It is quite difficult. It is VERY easy to wonder out of cover and get taken out without knowing where it came from. Communication and organization are critical.

There are a couple of other new maps... but they are different versions of original maps. samawah_day and haditha_night.
