I have had that feeling for so long now Jack. The only thing really keeping this from being more popular is the simple fact that it's just not advertised enough. Some people will say, "It's better that it's underground" or something to that effect. But, the gameplay itself will always organically create the community. We need to see this game advertised more. End.
Disagree. The game has a very tough learning curve and the vast majority of players don't have the patience for that or have the ego that can take a bruising for a long time.
I started in PVP, got my ass handed to me over and over, so I went to PVE for a while to learn the maps and get a better feel for the gunplay. Returned to PVP and haven't look back.....2k+ levels later....
More advertising wouldn't hurt, never does, but that's not the reason it is a niche game.
@@touchgrasstryhard8604 I get where you're going but, don't think it's totally accurate. Compared to games like Squad, Hell Let Loose, Post Scriptum, etc.. ISS is much easier to get. I started on PvP and loved it from day one as did the majority of people I know who play it. Many of whom were coming to ISS on console in a wave to find something fill the void of BF and COD.
The fact that the game is HARD or HARDCORE for sure, is that I mean about the community cultivating itself. There are a lot more people out there interested in this style of play and honestly, it's the only one really doing it in a way that's so easily digestible. Game modes aren't complicated and roles are simple but important. Again, this isn't Squad.
I honestly like that you run into the same people often.
@@DJ-sn2wn I do too. Would just be nice to see some broader coverage for this game. Especially considering how solid the core mechanics are.
I think what might be restricting the playerbase is just the lack of any real progression system. A lot of people like having that carrot on a stick to keep them coming back and playing more.
This game is so damn good. Probably one of the best games to drop in the last 5 years
agreed. I just started playing a month or so ago and boy was I missing out. Better late than never though I suppose.
You do realize that insurgency has been out since 2014, and the original version shits all over sandstorm, right?
@@puregameplay7916 shhhhhhh
@@puregameplay7916 the "original" is actually a mod released back in 2007

I bought this over bf2042, great game. Surprised me how good it is for £25 and the menu music reminds me of bf2.
For me it says it’s £34.99!
Same....I was debating on which one, I couldn't even play the trial after a couple of hours do bf 2042. It wouldn't let me log in ....but this game is just so much fun. I like the voice chat....makes for interesting interactions
It's 60 AUD and nah not even worth it man I'm sticking with battlefield
@@ARES.PRODICTION Its 50% off rn until tomorrow
The part on the front of the m4 is called a post sight you’d keep the post on in case your sight died in the field you could still utilize iron sights hope that was helpful love your channel!
*A2 Gas block front sight.
@@nickloven6728 I’m sure it has proper name but that’s the name that given in the army when I served and it’s the one I use to this day as a post rises and a mount falls easy way for me to always remember
Also you could get a cowitness sight picture which helps you train muscle memory and find the dot quickly.
@@acvfun I prefer a lower 1/3rd cowitness as it is the best of both worlds and provides less target obscurity.
Fun fact the A-10 warthogs “Hellfire” machine gun has so much firepower it can only be fired in bursts, as it slows down the jets speed, and could be significant enough for it to fall out of the sky under prolonged fire.
Lool that's crazy
Would love to see you and Westie, Stodeh etc play this more and create some good content to boost this game.
It coule be amazing
At 32:02 the A10 warthog sounds almost like it does in real life. Its very rare to actually find a game that gets the sound so close. Brings me back to my time in Afghanistan.
1:53:24 that actually made me laugh. Perfect example how amazing and hilarious insurgency can be
I wonder if he could throw the grenade back in mid air
That would be cool
@@SirKartoshka You can but the chances of your grabbing it are extremely slim.
One of my favorite games
Was a pleasure to play with/against you ;)
One of the games where you can immerse yourselves and opt in and out of casual or hardcore very easily. Severely underrated.
I'm so happy u love it as much as I do. I've been addicted ever since it released on consoles
Has it been better recently on console? (mainly the multiplayer)
@@tonsillectomy4002 I've heard from friends that are still on last gen that it can be rough at times performance wise but it seems like they're doing they're best to get it to run smooth. On the new consoles it now runs flawlessly. They we're extremely quick in fixing the bugs of the first week like leaning audio and so on. Very much recommend it
@@tonsillectomy4002 if you play on either of the next gen consoles it basically runs as smooth as it does in the video. Last gen has issues though unless you don't mind 30fps.
@@Human_Mk3 thanks for the info😄
@@columlee6714 what fps do you get on a console
Jack: “Ivar the Boneless, what’s that from?”
Me: “History…”
Keep going back to this game every few weeks. Just so awesome. Imagine playing it with good friends, that would be so cool.
friends...haha
insurgency on pc is mad, i might jump back into it as well as squads
Awesome seeing you stream this game for multiple hours, basically been the only game I play on the reg for the past year and a half. Would love to see you keep playing this game and getting really good. Maybe see you on there fraggy boi
So glad to see you playing more of this game! Absolutely so unique and really nothing quite like it on console at the moment, been playing the hell out of it on my SeriesX. Tomo is a big fan of this game, would love to see you squad up with your crew on this game.
I doubted this game. But after seeing all the comments I finally bought in and got it…. Literally played it for 8-10 hours straight. Highly underrated game and has so much potential.
what do you like about it?
@@SharockoRAZR the gameplay is incredible and realistic. Unforgiving and hard but fun
@@MemeLord904 that's the best part, it's hard but not too far, still has the fun
Hope that JackFrags' coverage of this game draws in more players
I absolutely love this game. ❤️❤️❤️
The community is so welcoming and friendly. No other game has such community
Fr no bs just real gamers And army/gun/shooting lovers
This game is honestly so much fun. Everything about it is great imo especially the sound it’s terrifying when you here a Warthog or attack chopper above you
I'm addicted to this game the sounds of gunfire and the screams are brutal especially with a good head set
Sorry missed the stream,love Sandstorm,perfect balance of tactical/casual gameplay imo.
9:09 lmao
That “triangular front sight post” is called an FSB or front sight block, because the M4 is direct impingement it feeds gas through a tube to the bolt carrier to cycle the spent casing and feed a new cartridge.
Flat top is typically referring to the upper reciever and not the FSB because you have upper recievers with forged carry handles.
You can see though that the “flat top” function just changes out the FSB (front sight gas block) for a standard gas block without a front sight
Picked this game up a while ago and is hands down my favorite hardcore casual fps.
Easily my favorite tactical shooter. The Gunplay, Audio, Weapons. Everything is so solid.
This game and Help Let Loose are really fun but I have to be in the right mood to play. Right now I'm addicted to Dying Light 2 it's so good one of the best open world games I've played in a long time!
This game is hard, i love that.
Been playing a ton of this on console, it’s amazing
Player base?
@@bensmith8533 probably not as high as PC but it's consistently getting higher with more exposure, if your worried about finding games it's not an issue.
@@columlee6714 thanks mate
Was my favorite game to play with friends a few months back. I moved and don’t have pc rn, and I really miss playing it. The comms were always so funny
This game is my favorite shooter ever, im happy that Jack finally plays it!
This is my favorite shooter the guns are just so satisfying. This game does so much stuff right.
Map Design on sandstorm is so fking good
You know the game is hardcore when Jack dies repeatedly
The new update basically got rid of all the tiny details like eye color for security and pistol equip animations
Jack - can you get microsoft's attention and convince them to put this on game pass. I agree the game is criminally underrated, and that could be just what the game needs to expand player base
I feel like this game would explode if it got put on game pass. I know I would for sure start playing.
Just pay the $40 and support the developers man 😔
It's on gamepass now lol
2 of my close friends have their own characters on multiplayer also the instrument on the menu music is called the saz its a kurdish instrument
I only bought this for the co-op and it is safe to say I wasn't disappointed.
It definitely is !! Just started playing on console last week. Cant believe i never heard of this till now
Just got this game this morning, I agree. I’ve been grinding it all day.
Bro I got it 3 days ago I’m already level 32 🤣🤣😭 absolutely no lifed it already
Game had a pretty shocking launch with bugs and optimisation issues, but it’s really good fun to play now
The “flat top” portion on the weapon is called a front sight post
I play coop exclusively and I've racked up about 500 hours in the game since launch. Played the original Insurgency for years before that. Modded servers on coop are my favorite. So fun being able to use a whole arsenal of weapons.
I need to pick this game up again. The gunplay is so satisfying.
Is this game still active? Currently on sale through Steam. Wondering if people still play this so I can purchase.
the little details in this game go crazy too. such a good shooter game
Most competitive game ever bro love it
these guys need to redo day of infamy like they have with sandstorm
Glad your giving this great game traction, small developers behind it, I hope more players who use the excellent proximity chat and like hard core come to ps5, cross play between ps and xbox is coming this year as are next gen update and new maps, modes and guns etc
The ISMC Mod on this Game is INSANE !!!!!
one of the best games I have ever play! I still play it every single night with my mates. We play a ton of hardcore coop with a lot of bots, slow milsim
Loved the first of this game played it while in HS so much fun and the game mechanics blew me away
Love to see more vids on this I miss this game!
Never stopped playing it! Still get a few aussie/nz servers and south American ones here in Perth
Starting playing 6 weeks ago and I’m addicted, so fun!
I saw your vid and got it rid away on the console i hope it works good on console cant wait to play it
I just found this game a couple weeks ago. The amount of messages i get, from kids that die before me... So they end up watching me play.... And i make a mistake while trying to defend an objective on my own.... Is ridiculous.
If you're reading this, and you send messages like that....
You're only watching, because you can't survive long enough to contribute to the team.
still has a tight and active community even today. It has gotten a bit of a revived with the latest PS5 update. this was the game that brought me back to PC gaming after all the years on console !
Been playing this game for a while now. Hardcore Co-op (PVE) is by far my favorite and the closest thing to a realistic tactical squad gameplay on console.
Anyone else find it weird watching modern fps games with an actual war now going on in real life too
what? there has been constant war for millenia. someone is always fighting, dying , struggling.
@@voidlight6006 exactly

It has challenging co-op which is pretty fun.
For the M4A1 the iron sights, the option for flat top in the beginning of the video I’m in the marines and we call it the A Frame
Yayyy more insurgency this game deserves all the love
I had a good run with it. Been awhile since I played it. I'll eventually come back but I'm not feeling it lately. Been playing super animal royale, Anthem, and battlefront 2
Ivan the boneless is a badass he’s from a show I forget the name of it.. I’ve only wanted clips and part of a few episodes the show is called “Vikings” I believe if ur into that type of stuff I highly recommend it it’s a fking AMAZING show from what I’ve saw so far
9:06 "Just Do It" moment
Really loving the coop in this game.
@jackfrags The first Rainbow Six game I ever played was RS: Rouge Spear on the PC, at the time the gfx were really good, but obviously today's games make it look 8-bit lol but the gameplay was really fantastic, very much a medium milsim.
Next truly fantastic milsim I played after that was Operation Flashpoint that I played with a mate and my bro, was good times.
After that before I knew it Battlefield: 1942 came out and I was all over that like ants in a picnic basket 👍. Anyways love your channel dude, have a good one!
I love how Jack blames everything on DICE even when it’s not their game 😂
It had a little rough patch a while back but this game is REALLY good now.
I got this game before because I watched your video. It's pretty good on ps4! But it looks great on your setup.
Oh yeah jack, let's play squad. After over 2k gameplay i literally know every tricks (for sure i know not all, but things which only 80%) knew.
It would be so awesome if you like to have your full own squad but nor enough guys, it would be a honor to play with you guys...
Jack i did buy this game it is so much fun pls stream it more i learn a lot from youre vids and streams ;)
I’m a console sandstorm player on Xbox series x and the game runs very well. Highly recommend for anyone else on console. As the chat member says there’s no aim assist but you get used to it after a while.
U sure there is no aim assist ?
this reminds me of the Medal Of Honour reboot in 2010? that had very similar game mode to push
This is my favorite game. Way better than Cod or Battlefield. Thanks for streaming
Hardcore coop is so much fun. A little more relaxed compared to PVP and not as toxic, while still be serious.
Nah, I usually get a bunch of wanna be mil sim man children who rage when they die.
I just downloaded this game and I've been playing it almost exclusively. Gives me the realism I want while still keeping the more fast paced action of BF
Nothing like battlefield dont even compare mate
@@ARES.PRODICTION true,its better
finally got a hold of this game on Playstation and I'm having a blast with it.
Tho i play at SEA server its mostly people speaking maderin or something. But the thing that makes me happy is that everyone tries their best to speak english and communicate. We have a lot of fun this game is a gem
PLEASE: play Escape from Tarkov with Aculite!
Been looking at this game for weeks debating buying it so this is great
Got it on ps4 a couple months back and play here and there, enjoy the gameplay. The sensitivity seems off to me but that could just be me
I bought this game after an previous video and absolutely love it.
Graphics and animations over all looks like operation: harsh doorstop ( this game under development ) the same engine probably and both looks so damn good !
I've been playing on n Series X since it released. This game is dope AF! I can't wait for the next gen version
Same!!
3:05:27 That NA banter is top tier huh Jack lmao
Great video bro bro I remember you hope you remember me
Aka HoLLoPunk form BF3
I don't play it a lot but the gameplay is soooo damn fun IMO
Bought this game when it first came out for Xbox one and haven't played another shooter other then this game
Only thing I wanted for this game was a huge scale 50vs50.
it's a masterpiece ❤️
COULD NOT AGREE MORE , FOR CONSOLE THIS IS THE SHOOTER IMO
Insurgency has some of the best gunplay and sound and explosives and maps I love it
and the realism yes
OG ghost recon was the first shooter I played. Such a good game haha
It makes me weep that this game isn't more popular.
6:28 front site gas block
I've always want to play this game after playing rising storm 2 : vietnam tho
Impossible game to be late to the party to. I hated this when I tried it recently as everyone seemed to be experts at it and I suffered.
Hopefully this comes to Game Pass eventually...I think that will give a lot more people a chance to play it
