Completely different gameplay.

Insurgency games are faster, more CQB and offer gameplay for SOLO players.

Squad live and die on Squad Leaders. Gameplay is very teambased and class are fully unlocked in full teams, maps are huge in comparison, vehicular combat and transportation, base building, fortifications, 2 hour long match, etc.

You also need to consider your computer's specs and internet connection. I have the same connectivity issues with Squad that I had with Arma. A high ping will boot you from the server. You can get by on a higher ping in many Insurgency servers, although the lag won't be fun.

Both are very different. Insurgency does kinda play out more like hardcore CoD, but with much more intelligent players, whereas Squad is more of a cross between BF and ARMA scale wise, and is extremely teamplay heavy. You can lone wolf it fine in Insurgency, but will get torn apart trying it in Squad.

PLAY PROJECT REALITY (FREE BTW) IF YOU WANT A TASTE OF HOW SQUAD IS. BASICALLY THAT ON UE BUT WITH LESS VEHICLES (ESP AIR)

I like both but Squad is more of my kind of game. Squad is as the name suggests. You play as a squad communication is required. You need a mic otherwise most squad leads wont let you in the squad.

Just get both like I do. Totally different games. You really need to TALK aka use your mic in Squad. Communication is the main key. While in Ins, you still can get away to the top of the table while being a mute.

To win games for certain in insurgency you have to communicate.
You can win games through pure skill - though if the other team are communicating then you cannot do anything against two people coming round seperate corners at the exact same itme.
Squad is more drawn out however - and a lot less hardcore I'd say.
It's kind of like a mix between BF, Arma and Insurgency... If you catch my drift.

I don't have Squad so cannot compare them but if cost is a factor, it's no contest. I don't know where you are based but Insurgency is currently on sale on the UK Humble Store website for a paltry GBP £0.89 (so probably no more than a dollar on their U.S website). Even if you were erring more towards Squad, there is absolutely no reason why you should not buy Insurgency as well at that bargain price. Insurgency also has the slightly higher average player numbers of the two currently as well.

it's like you're comparing a bike and a car.

Both have different gameplay, unless you want more tactical, go for squad.
