I have to say I was skeptical and off balance with .7, but after a few weeks of playing I have to say the firefights have been the absolute most intense ever.
The squads have to communicate much more now, and i see greater cooperation. I am having super crazy moments of extreme combat and fear/paranoia, and its awesome!
I also have to say there is a large contingent of players, like me, that really only exclusively love insurgency and can't wait for more. On Basrah we had a huge firefight with brits on one side of a bermed road and us on the other, trying to keep them from crossing. They were popping smoke and we were blanketing with fire. There was flanking, counter-flanking, suppression and maneuver on a scale not seen before. awesome! well done!!
They only mode I would like to suggest which could be added as a type of insurgency may be to have only 1 cache "intelled" to the enemy at one time, and they have to get that one only before the next. That would concentrate both sides to attack/defend one area at a time, which would be some seriously intense fighting. As it is now, single guys can sneak around and blow up caches that aren't even defended, which i know is fun and all but a bit anti-combat oriented. I know people will disagree with me but the advantage would be to bring all the players on the server to one giant combat zone, whether its 10 or 60 people on the server. imagine 32 on 32 in a single block radius!
sure wish the ak's were more accurate, i'm useless with one still
looking forward to the new maps, especially fallujah!
