I don't write reviews for every game but only for the ones I enjoy or think they have lots of potential.

I've played Insurgency Sandstorm 4 hours straight and it's tons of fun. Here's my review:

Pros:
- The animations are top notch. The recoil, reloading, side peaking, etc are excellent.
- All the weapons can be modified with tons of attachments.
- You can also modify your outfit but you need to earn exp points to unlock them. Don't worry, it's not pay to win.
- Graphics are better than Squad and Arma 3 cause they invested a lot in the details in the maps.
- Co-op is insase and it's almost impossible to win missions cause the AI are realistically strong.
- It's great if you want 20 - 40 mins quick fun. Some missions even last less if your team is bunch of idiots.
- The game has great potential for modding or adding new guns, vehicles, objects, roles, etc.

Cons:
- Lacks a bit more variety in the missions but I guess it's coming cause they only released it in December and have a small team.
- Needs a bit more polishing in terms of stutters sometimes.
- I think it needs an in-depth stamina system depending on the gear you carry.
- They need to focus on the importance of the roles, cause there are lots of players who just roam solo not caring about the objectives.
- Lack of communication.

Conclusion:

Insurgency is so much fun if you wanna relax and shoot around. The game is really immersive because the map details and weapons is insane. I believe the devs are heading in the right direction with the development.

If I were a dev, I would focus more on defining roles in order to motivate the players to cooperate more and play it tactically.
