Either option is a fun way to mess around in the maps, especially if you are unfamiliar with the map composition.īefore spawning, players must choose their dedicated role across three squads. If you happen to run into any complications joining a server with only players, you can play against bots cooperatively with friends or by yourself. While I have had no problem finding active multiplayer servers to join, only a handful had close to the 32 player max player limit during the day, while more of the two dozens listed servers are populated during peak evening hours.
The second, Dog Red Sector, features Omaha Beach, as Americans advance up the beach and into German trenches. The first, Bastogne, is known for the Battle of the Bulge campaign in the Ardennes Forest and features both a day and night variation. I spent the majority of my time with Day of Infamy playing in the two maps created by New World Interactive. Currently, the game only features the American and German armies, along with three maps, two of which were made by the developers and the third made by the community. There is no doubt a steep learning curve for anyone who never played Insurgency or any other so-called realistic style shooters, such as ARMA and Red Orchestra 2. New World Interactive has released a free total conversion mod for the game called Day of Infamy with the hope that the cult-like following will expand upon the developed framework by creating new maps, weapons, and more. Being a huge fan of the original Day of Defeat and the official remake, Day of Defeat: Source released in 2005, I jumped at the opportunity to take a look at the free Steam Workshop mod for Insurgency, taking players back to the most infamous battles of World War II.Īs it was all the rage for first-person shooters in the past few years, Insurgency was set in the modern day, which has arguably grown stale. Originally a Half-Life 2 mod, Insurgency became a stand-alone product in early 2014, allowing players to experience the highly tactical multiplayer team orientated gameplay that made the mod famous back in 2007.
