Day of Defeat Source Server

[manofphat]

We're gonna give it a shot! It has the Deathmatch IP. Let me know how you guys like it!

[gOOCH]

lol i think this will pick up really slowly if it does, so maybe try pick up a canadian dod team and give them vent and a server if they use our name

[Landspeed]

It can't do any worse then the DM server did.

[lefty]

oh god. not dods. that game is awful.

go with dod 1.3 and ill hop on that. i need a server for that game as i seem to be banned from all the rest...

[7900gs]

Yo Mano,

Orange maps...i've actually made a .rar map pack of the most popular ones.

If u run these on the server u'll get heavy traffic, or should at least,

lemme know how to send u the mappack.

peace.

btway i'd be interested in a NR DOD:S clan.

[manofphat]

E-mail it to me man.

Is there a Demo for DoD:Source? Cause I played teh old one, and I would pay more money to have it removed from my computer then to be put on......

[Rez Prophet]

Hey looks like only ur DoD server is online right now. gay.

[gOOCH]

actually

[manofphat]

That's just a picture that someone uploaded for down'ed DoD:S servers

[Sniffles]

it was siiiiick!

[SKULLCRUSHER]

Should I buy this game people ? And if so where would you recommend be the lowest price ? EBGames, Online ...

the game is deathmatch. it is fast paced, with inaccurate guns (compared to 1.3). its a simple run and gun game, despite what others say. if you are into that, give it a try i guess. (get a guest pass... go to the steam forums and ask for one, then go from there if you like it)

best price is probably over steam.

imo, not worth 20 bucks... or 2 for that matter. there is no skill required for you to be good in the game, just a thompson or mp40. i was looking for a dod 1.3 but on the source engine... and that is anything but the case.

[gOOCH]

dont listen to peg

[lefty]

dont listen to peg

ok. whats your take on it?

[gOOCH]

its different compared to source, and scoping and movement is somewhat sluggish, but saying it has no skill is stupid
i think its a pretty fun game once in a while, i enjoy the ww2 semi auto guns and whoreing the k98

[SKULLCRUSHER]

Bought it, and love it so far. Recoil is more realistic, as seem to be the effects of a nade. I agree with Chris also, the WWII guns are also a hoot. I've handled the M1 Garand and its nice to see these in game play.

[Cleavage Monkey]

If it is anything like Call of Duty then I would like it since I loved Call of Duty.

my comparison comes from css and dod 1.3

the skill bit was due to the fact it took a while to get to a high skill level in 1.3, and its taking even longer to do the same in css. in dods i dont think ive ever had a score under 2:1 ratio when all i did was hold the forward key and use the thompson. try that in 1.3, see how far you get.

point is that the game is dumbed down an extremely great deal to try and make it more 'fun' and get more people to play it due to the fact 1.3 wasnt a huge success. but they killed their old audience, and the new one isnt there much either.

if you do think the game requires skill, i hope the only 'skill' you refer to is holding down 1 key and knowing when to click another.

[gOOCH]

sure ur just not playing baddies

[lefty]

yup. played on 4 or 5 servers. the secret to the game is running and gunning, and i dont consider that skill.

[SKULLCRUSHER]

Every game does have its challenge, and although running and gunning works, some skill and strategy will improve your score. Its still a kinda cool game me thinks.

[Wesley Crusher]

My housemate used to play DoD:S more than CS:S... maybe I can get him back into gaming again. haha.

[AgentOrange]

i'll agree with gooch, sorry peg but running and gunning in the game only works when ur facing baddies... solid strategies (such as key MG positions) will ruin any run and gun tactics ur using, the accuracy wiht the thompson while running plus recoil is horrid, i don't know how ur keeping over a 2:1 K:D but we should organize a time and day to get a shitload of us with DOD:S on the server, i've only seen about 5 guys on at a time.

[Landspeed]

Yup I'm super brutal at this game.

But it's good time

sprint button + plenty of cover in source = safe.

1.3 had bullets that actually did damage, as well as go through walls. source doesnt. also where there was barbed wire in 1.3 now = sandbags in source (aka cover). this is why the run and gun works so well in source. of course if you run down the middle you will get plowed, but know where to go and what to avoid and you will have no problem.

once you know the maps, there are only a handful of mg spots people go to, once you know these spots, its rather simple.

the thompson is weak in terms of accuracy in source, but when the maps are so congested, and you know what to do, its better that way....

the recoil on the gun is fine, its the easiest thing to control, but the cone of randomness makes it shoot wildly into the air.

[NIS3R]

what i want to know is why are we running it? are we THAT desprit for new ppl?

[Landspeed]

No we are running the server because we are a gaming community.

Not just a CS:S Community.

We'd like to get more games up and we'll see were that will take us.

Besides I own the game a never play it

[manofphat]

The deathmatch was always empty so we're trying something else ;)

[Calamity Gundam]

yup. played on 4 or 5 servers. the secret to the game is running and gunning, and i dont consider that skill.

Correct me if I am wrong but isent the job of the T side to run in - gun - then plant?

I find the game to be slower paced than CSS for sure. The running is too fast and the stamina burns like mad. Good luck hitting a running person >_> xD

[SKULLCRUSHER]

Alright, so we went and turned the DM Server into a DOD server and the fuckin thing is always empty. I even bought the game anticipating another game to enjoy with my server mates - but noooooooo, the thing is always empty.

WTF People !

[Mike-KT]

Some notice might have helped...

[gOOCH]

dont worry gerry, wait till team fortress comes out and hopefully mano can run a server and it will be one of the few so it will be popular

[lefty]

TF2 is gonna be fun. cant wait for that game to come out... sadly it will be a while.

[WiseGuy]

im buying it , mostly cuase its going to be packaged with Portal and Ep2

[gOOCH]

ep1 is 10 bucks now

[manofphat]

Yeah I want to have a TF2 server

[Mike-KT]

I'll likely get the orange box edition so that I can get a cheap CSS hacking account

Am I Jukon you?


Wait and see.

[WiseGuy]

thats sweet. u get Ep1 as well... i have a free version of Ep1, it was a good one

[The Killing Joke]

Damn - I'm still working through HL2... I'm on Ravenholt. Damned head-crab zombie bitches... (Although my 4 month old son was enthralled watching it - until Michele told me to shut it down or else he'd have nightmares.)

[lefty]

will there be any way to buy just TF2? i dont really care about portal or ep2.

[NIS3R]

[NIS3R s Dad]

[NIS3R]

It can't do any worse then the DM server did.

lol ya... about that....

[manofphat]

even the DM server had a good starting week. Then people lost interest.
