2 Player Co-Op Stealth Gameplay Video

Stunting the enemy's intelligence by destroying the communication truck can provide you with a massive advantage. Get yourself a few mates, infiltrate the base without getting discovered (a silenced weapon might not be the worst idea) and take a few grenades and rockets with you for when it gets hot. Good luck on your mission, you'll need it...

A new map in Sainte-Anne!

And here's the most recent developer blog entry:

For 0.81, the AI has again learned some new tricks with behaving in water areas. They now basically know how to navigate the boats, and won’t consider the rocks beneath water as desirable place to find cover – that was the biggest reason they used to just swim calmly in the shore when a gun fight was taking place right in front of them

The other maps got some weapon racks now as well, Sainte-Anne south area has been changed completely, and Aeolian Coast has got radar trucks driving around now too. Check out the full change log here.

Have a few extra screenshots:

The game is on Steam Greenlight, can be purchased from Desura (both client AND standalone versions) and is CHEAP AS CHIPS. Seven-odd bucks.

I like the title, i think robots, zombies, bugs, or an amalgamation of all of those would be a great add-on down the line.
 
The mechanics are actually quite different - perhaps nuanced is a better term - to what you'd expect. It can be pretty surgical, with cover, LoS, elevation etc. all playing a part. The weapon variation is quite pronounced.

It works very well as a large scale top-down SOCOM or something. Some very hectic firefights to be had!
