SINGLE PLAYER Campaign?

Any word on this? I really believe if this was implemented into the game it would benefit. After the new MW2 I really enjoy the video game realism aspect.

They scrapped it because it was too costly and they didn't believe it would be worth people's time.

If the campaign just appeared out of nowhere, I would be very excited to play it, but scrapping it was the right call; this dev team clearly didn't have the resources to do it justice, at least not without severely compromising the multiplayer.

Insurgency: Sandstorm dropping story campaign, for now at least

The singleplayer and cooperative story campaign planned for Insurgency: Sandstorm, the sequel to 2014’s mod-turned-standalone Insurgency, might not actually happen. Developers New World Interactive announced last night that the campaign is “cancelled for release” so they can focus on the multiplayer that the series is known for, then the story “will be considered again at a later date.”

I have not seen any news saying that they have scrapped it altogether.

When they say that and it's been a year since release. It has been scrapped.

I doubt it's been fully Scrapped since they put alot of resources on it. They currently have it on hold, They might release one day hopefully, This was done so the player base doesn't say things like "Oh they didn't put enough effort in the Multiplayer" Plus it was a pretty big task, Since they had to use alot of the Campaign's Environments for Multiplayer aswell, which is pretty challenging. You can see Farmhouse, Refinery and a few other maps which come from the campaign itself. Jeremy Also said they had a Citadel environment which didn't make it into the multiplayer.

i think story mode just went to low-priority task, since they have more to focus than a story
