Okay, I'm sooooo glad they brought the "Half-Life 2: Team Deathmatch/Deathmatch", but already I'm bored of the 2 maps. When the UT2004 Demo came out with 1 Onslaught map I got addicted for weeks playing it and patiently awaiting the full version to come on sale.

With this mod I'm only addicted to grabbing that rocket launcher and camping with it (mind you, we do need the sniper rifle in the game...any sniper rifle will do).

I think what bored me was the lack of music in the background, because there was none. When I joined a Deatmatch round all I could hear was the same SMG firing from everyone at every angle (it got quite tedious). Then I joined a Team Deathmatch server and this has a more fun element to the mod.

I do hope that after they've sorted out some of the problems people are having, that they'll create some new maps and an MP3 player to play our own music in the background if they don't release their own...even though the soundtrack from HL2 was great whilst playing...talk about adrenaline ;)

Other than that - great game & add-on, and already I've heard of mappers creating their own maps, only time can tell ;)

Yeah new maps would be great and music would be alright, then again music might take away from the factor of hearing when ur enemies are coming around the corner.

lol, like in a 32 person server, you have time to hear that....not

lol man, its only been out 24hours (if that)....yeah, they could have added a few more maps to start off with, but i reckon they just wanted to please some fans cos of the probs allot of users have been having.....although it could also be to give people the feel of need to enter the mapping compatition :)

Anyway, wont be long till ur bored of downloading gazillions of custom maps lol :p

My vote would go for background music and more maps. That SMG firing is annoying after a while lol. Especially in 20+ player servers, that's all you hear. There are some maps made already, but more maps to start with would have been better... even if there were only 4 that would still be better than 2 lol. :pinch:

actually im not really looking forward to dod:s because its going to have the exact same textures but with new physics... i would prefer if it actually had improved gfx... i am personally looking forward to the ww2 mod "the last great war". hopefully it will be as good or better than dod and have better gfx.

    • Google are hyprocrites for signing this. They have been pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft, only they do it on Android and ChromeOS.
    • In some countries the law has forced Microsoft to display a menu on a fresh install of Windows which asks which web browser you want and it will install that browser. This doesn't add any bloat to Windows. It simply an additional step when setting up a new PC.
    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
    • The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
