We let you know it was
coming, now it's actually here. The kids behind the
Insurgency mod for
Half-Life 2 have just released
beta patch 1.1, and we've got it for you to download.
It's set to fix all manner of things (check the changelog for details), and the devs would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support of the mod.
Looking at the
Steam stats page, it shows that the INS mod is in fact the most-played third-party Source mod on the online service, and it is the sixth-most played game, behind some pretty big names. Not bad for a game that's been out a week!
Anyway. Patch notes.
