Day Of Defeat: Source

Post by Dr. Pain »

I had a go at it on a LAN yesterday and it's fun. Some of the weapons like the BAR have 2 firing rates, semi or full auto but have no bi-pod and you only get an MG-42, no MG-34.

The hitting power of the weapons is good as I found that I lost my head alot if I poked it out at the wrong time. More so than any other version of DOD.

Also the M-1 for the US has a granade that attaches to the muzzle, you get 2 of them but they are not an impact weapon.

Only 4 maps leave you wanting more but boy the maps are good and the sounds are just awesome. I could hear an MG-42 in the distance and it kind of made me go in the opposite direction through fear. Also the team voice commands seem alot more real. The sound is just awesome.

With more maps it should be so much fun on the right servers.

quick purchase it NOW. and you'll have a game that you can't play!!!

you need to OWN HL2 before you can get DOD:S. but i'd say its worth it.

Own it ....yep sure do............and they never charged me tax...... :lol:

Downloadable software purchased online in Australia from an overseas company attracts no tax.

Good game, especially at the price(and no tax), I like both CS:S and DOD:S and I wouldn't say one is better than the other...... really just depends on what style of play you prefer, I find DOD:S a bit more hectic because you keep respawning and running back into the battle as opposed to CS:S when you die you have to wait till the end of the round and generally have to be a bit more carefull with your life.

The only thing that really does annoy me is that its hard to find a server without tossers or 13 year olds with prepubescent high pitched voices who want to 'pwn your nOOb ass'. :rage:
