Day of Defeat: Source

[Qarth]

I myself am a HUGE fan of day of defeat. Much more so than CS. I think it's a much more fun, realistic game. Has anyone heard about a Source version of the game coming out? That would be amazing! But as of now DoD is still amazing as it is. :yes:

[flupke]

It's in developpement & could be coming out with HL2 in a month or so

[Qarth]

Oh yeah?!? That is exciting. If anyone has any screenshots or information feel free to post it please! (I'm at work and on 56k.)

Hey I just hit 1000 Posts. :laugh:

There is no indication of a release any time soon. Waldo and all the others on the DoD forums are working away hard at porting the game to the Source engine.

[BroChaos Veteran]

wow, i'm so behind. i just learned what the source engine is. so there's an updated version of CS on the hl2 engine? :huh:

[Scraggles]

Can someone explain to me what the 'source' versions of these games are? I'm simple, I stuck with DoD and CS before steam was around.

[AaronMT]

Source = HalfLife 2 Engine

Its the game engine that was made for Halflife: 2. CS and DOD are two games that are being ported to the new halflife 2 engine.

[blackmartinix]

DoD "Source" simply means playing DoD on the HL2 Source engine. Same thing goes for CS:Source and even playing Half-Life 1 with the source engine. Its just a port to a newer engine. (bout time :D )

[Varsity]

We've been told that DODS will ship with HL2.

[kairon]

Considering HL2 RC has been sent to VU to go gold soon and their was no indication of DOD:S's status in with the announcement and Gabe's confirmation, I would say DOD:S will be done a month or two from now after HL2's release. However, if you can provide any concrete evidence that its done and was sent with the HL2 RC to go gold please do so.

[Varsity]

What the hell is your problem with people? You're trashing that guy who doesn't speak English and then coming up all sniffy here. All I said was that we'd been told it would ship with HL2.

[AaronMT]

Yes, and can you back that up or not?

[lnmnky]

Trust in Varsity :ninja:

[Kussie]

No DODS is not shipping with HL2, two reasons 1) the RC consists of HL2, HL:S and CS:S 2) The DOD team have been busy working on HL2 and have just recently returned to work on DOD:S and will be released after HL2.

Well since you seem to think that there is no proof of DoD source ported, read this.

DoD:Source Q&A

All your questions answered.

[Varsity]

"Will DOD: Source be available simultaneously with Half-Life 2's release?"

That is the plan. It is more a question of how many bells and whistles they add than whether it will be done in time.

I can't find the original post, but it's in here somewhere.

Just like they planned on a release of HL2 last year right?Like I said, if it was done they would have said so when Gabe said HL2 was sent to Vivendi. If you can't provide anymore info then that, I'm sorry, but your probably wrong.And to your question, my problem is with people who just assume things and post their opinions as facts. :D

uh, kairon, do you listen?

dont argue with varsity, he did not state this as a fact, he merely stated what valve had said in the past. heres a post of his to refresh your memory:

All I said was that we'd been told it would ship with HL2.

[kairon]

I listen just fine, please don't troll and go OT.

[Timan Veteran]

Theres a large thread going on on www.dayofdefeat.com about the source version, basically the devs asked what we would like to see it in.

I highly doubt it will come out with HL2 but then again, if this game gets delayed again, it will lol.

[Qarth]

If you go back to the last page and read my last post you will find the Q&A that states that they want it shipped with HL2.

be careful, if you say anything against what kairon thinks, he will argue with you, and accuse you of trolling!

[kairon]

We shall see. Please take your superiority complex elsewhere as I do not want to continue this discussion here on the board so I don't risk getting warned all because of a troll. It would be nice if it came with HL2 but those FAQs are probably not up to date and have been there since many months ago and things have changed since then but we will just have to see. Thanks :)

Well Mr. Feels-like-he-has-to-defend-himself pants, the Q&A is the Q&A, not a FAQ. And besides that it's been said that they playtested it. With that said if it's as old as you say it is, imagine where they are right now. :p

[Kussie]

Hhmm DOD:S wasn't included in the RC that went to to VUG recently. It was just HL2, CS:S and HL:S so whom knows
