About

Insurgency: Sandstorm delivers hardcore tactical combat where death is instant, ammunition is precious, and victory demands skill and coordination. Experience modern warfare's raw brutality through deadly ballistics, devastating artillery strikes, light attack vehicles, and HDR audio that puts the fear back into combat.

Push through war-torn streets, secure objectives, and survive lethal firefights. With no crosshair, minimal HUD, and realistic damage, every engagement demands tactical awareness and precision. Manage your ammunition carefully, use cover wisely, and coordinate with your squad—because in Sandstorm, there are no second chances.

Modern combat rewards those who communicate and adapt. Choose from specialized classes, coordinate devastating support strikes with your spotter, and respond to constantly shifting frontlines. Individual skill matters, but teamwork wins the fight.

Battle in intense PvP matches with up to 14v14 players or face relentless AI in co-op missions that demand tactical precision and squad coordination. Whether you prefer competitive firefights or cooperative survival under pressure, Sandstorm delivers.

Powered by gritty visuals and an unmatched soundscape, the chaos of combat comes alive without clutter or distraction. This isn't your typical shooter—this is war as it truly is: brutal, ruthless, and unforgettable.

feels more like call of duty than insurgency
Other than the Chinese players who seem to love to jump in front of your machine gun, this is a great shooter game and would highly recommend it. Indians have their trains, the Chinese have their machine guns lmao If you vote night maps on Outpost, im convinced you sit in the cuck chair.
buenisimo
They give this amazing game love and care. it deserves more players. Always a great time. 10/10 for what it is and what it aims to be.

Pretty fun. Not so fun when you have to create separate loadouts for both insurgents and security where each has variations for day and night for each class (up to 8 classes) AND also it's gamemode dependent, so separate loadouts for Co-op vs PVP, as well as some other gamemodes (like outpost and survival) having separate loadouts as well. Co-op has 8 classes. 2 teams. Day & night. That is 32 if you make 1 loadout for each class. One loadout for each class is not enough of variantion IMO, so I ended up making on average 5 loadouts for each class. That's 160 loadouts. But that's just for Co-op. I'll need to make separate loadouts for PVP, though I heard there are lots of cheaters, so I stuck with Co-op for now. (Night time maps rarely get picked, so don't bother making as many loadouts as I did for that. 2 to 3 is fine.) Get this though. The "not so fun" part is not the part where you make the loadouts. It's when the game randomly decides to copy one of your loadouts onto another, thus replacing it. Unless I'm completely blind, there is no way to copy a loadout, so you can't just simply and quickly copy your Co-op classes into PVP. But the game sure as hell sometimes decides that the two loadouts I already have with M1 Garand are not enough and copies one of them over my AWP loadout so I need to remake it if I want to use that bolt-action rifle instead of a semi-auto WW2 rifle. Also, sometimes the game forgets that you have a bipod on your gun. It will appear in-game, but your character doesn't use it and you can't fold it either. You have to go to the loadout menu, unequip the bipod and re-equip it. Then you have to actually resupply in-game to get the "new" loadout. Does your gun automatically come with a bipod? Great. Remove the gun and re-add it AND ALSO all the other attachments you had on it. Very fun times indeed. Anyway, fun to play when you're actually playing it and not doing maintenance.
good
Recomendo muito, jogo extremamente divertido mesmo sendo repetitivo.
