For example, the US Army Rifleman class uses the M1 Garand, a semi-automatic rifle, whereas the Wehrmacht Rifleman wields the bolt-action K98. While subtle, these differences can have a significant impact on the tactics employed, even within the same class. While the classes available are identical for both the US Army and the Wehrmacht, weapons of each are modeled after the actual weapons used by the US Army and Wehrmacht during World War II and therefore are slightly different for each side. I strongly recommend you buy this game at a local store or on Steam.There are six unique character classes in Day of Defeat:Source. The game makes up for it with realism in audio. Each character has an NPC voice when calling a medic, throwing a grenade or shouting a command. Real war sounds are brought to your ears when putting on your headphones, or just listening to your speaker. The character models aren't too shabby and you can easily tell the difference between a German and an American without looking at their name. The scenery helps you visualize how the area would really come to be in World War 2. Valve isn't the company that often takes the cake for graphics, but they delivered great graphics with this game. For the games time and generation the graphics are really fantastic. This here is the entire selection of weapons brought to you in this game. Rocket – Panzerschreck, Mauser M712 and a shovel. Machine Gunner – MG42, Walther P38 and a shovel. Sniper – Scoped K98 Rifle, a Walther P38 and a shovel. Support – STG44, two Model 24 Stielhandgranates and a shovel. Riflemen – K98k rifle, two rifle grenades and a shovel.Īssault – MP40 Sub Machine Gun, a Walther P38, one smoke grenade and one Model 24 Stielhandgranate. Rocket – Bazooka, M1A1 Carbine rifle and a butterfly knife. 30 caliber machine gun, a Colt M1911 and a butterfly knife. Sniper – Scoped Springfield rifle, a Colt M1911 and a butterfly knife. Support – M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle, two fragmentation grenades and a butterfly knife. Riflemen – Springfield rifle, two rifle grenades and a butterfly knife.Īssault – Thompson Sub Machine Gun, a Colt M1911, one smoke grenade and one fragmentation grenade. You can choose from 6 different classes, all different weapons. The different flesh-beating weapons from World War 2 really bring out a deadly force. If you choose to be the Wehrmacht you could be the never ending zombie attackers along with many bots.Ĭlasses: 9/10. In this game mode you can choose to be the US Army, defending yourselves against the ravenous zombie horde. There are pretty odd servers like Left 4 Dod. It could take time to blow up, so defend it carefully.ĭifferent servers have different game modes but those two are probably the most common. You then plant the bomb with the instructions it gives you. This could be a vehicle, maybe something else. The objective is to bring yourself and the TNT to the bombing point. Every player has the ability to pick up TNT. The Search and Destroy mode consists of two teams, one of which has a TNT pile on their side. ![]() The middle flag is always neutral, and the first team to take control of it automatically has the higher morale. Sometimes it takes a short period of time to capture a flag, sometimes it takes an instant, and sometimes it requires multiple players. If a team captures all 5 flags on the map, they win. Each team starts with two of their own flags, which can be taken by the other team. The game has 5 flags setup on various places depending on which map and server you play on. Capture the Flag is really straight-forward. They give you ammo when you ask for it they cover you, listen to you, and even add you as a friend. Still I find most of Day of Defeat's people are friendly. At times the community can be irritable spamming, camping class menu, etc. Maybe it seems that all the good servers get crammed often but it really is rare.Ĭommunity: 9/10. Valve gave it their all when working on this game, and it really came up great. Multiplayer is the only choice in this game, so internet is required. This is truly a stunning value that draws you in everyday. Of course it's frustrating at points, but that's online for you. It is actually hard to explain how the game works, but like most huge multiplayer releases it is really addictive. The game is half serious gameplay and half amazing community.
