Insurgency Game Mode

• New Game Mode

• Can be compared to "King of the Hill"

How it works

You will deploy to one of the ongoing Insurgency Areas as either a Pirate Faction or one of the two Empire factions available (Caldari & Gallente or Guristas Pirates).

 

After selecting the side you wish to fight for, you may either Deploy Solo, or with a squad.

Key features of this map:

• Players from the same faction are allies.

• Every player in the game mode is shown on the map as a green or red dot.

  • Green are allies; red are enemies.

• You capture Orbital Cannons that take out Low Orbit Ships.

• Low Orbit Faction/Pirate Ships.

Capturing the Orbital Cannons

• Think of Insurgency as King of the Hill.

Insurgency consists of going into the area near an Orbital Cannon to capture it. Once you are in this area, a progress bar on the right-hand side of the screen will begin ticking up.

 

Once the area is captured, you will see the informative text change to green and the progress bar will be full. A notification will then go out to everyone on the same map.

The more players that are in the area, the faster it will be captured. The same goes for contesting the area (Contesting indicates that the Opposing Team is attempting to take the area from "you").

 

Where to find Orbital Cannons?

You can find Orbital Cannons in three different regions on the map and placement is indicated on the map for everyone to see.

 

You can also see them on the Compass at the top center of your screen.

 

 

 

1. Green shows the Orbital Cannons that you control.

2. Grey shows the Orbital Cannons that have not been claimed yet.

What do the Orbital Cannons look like?

Orbital Cannons will appear differently depending in their current state.

Enemy Shield Warning

The Shield will broadcast a warning when it gets critically low and you can see this either by looking at the ship again, or by looking at the top left corner of your screen which will show the same icon as seen below.

Enemy Ship Destroyed

 

This will essentially complete the deployment and send you back to the main lobby, where you can decide to deploy to the same location again, or select a different deployment location.
