I've preloaded it too.



CANT WAIT.


We need to have a big MX game when it comes out.

09-16-2005, 01:03 PM
Yeah, I have it preloaded, and if you guys do set up a server....post the IP and I'll definitely come play.



EDIT: I don't think you can even download it unless you have bought HL2 Silver or Gold.

You can purchase it off Steam right now aswell I think. 10% off from Steam than in retail.

I have Silver and preloaded it the other day. If I had any shred of money I'd host a temp server for like a month maybe. We could have people chip in via paypal and get one.

Turkish
09-16-2005, 04:17 PM
how much would that run, I'd definitely be in for that.

enjoimx
09-16-2005, 04:27 PM
it probably wouldnt be all too expensive if everyone chipped in. yeah this is gonna be an awesome game.

incubliss
09-25-2005, 05:59 AM
Awesome, all pre-loaded and pre-ordered too.

Anyone wanna hook up for a game on Monday?

-Listy-
09-25-2005, 07:59 AM
I'll be getting this in the next few days, i'll check back here to see whos got it so we can play, its gonna be sweet.

incubliss
09-25-2005, 09:13 AM
He guys, hit me up on X-Fire, my username is incubliss on that too. Just add me if you want, then we can all maybe arrange a game of Day of Defeat: Source or Counter Strike: Source.

I'm in the UK mind, US servers will be quite hefty on me. You guys may have better connections and it may work out better if we all played in a UK server.

yup...if you got the silver or gold edition
Which package is the retail one?

incubliss
09-25-2005, 09:38 AM
Retail is Bronze unfortunately, but to buy Day of Defeat: Source on Steam right now would cost you $21.

Let's Chop Cats!
09-25-2005, 10:41 AM
$18. 20 bucks with a 10% discount.

Someone should set up a dedicated server on their pc for a few days so we can all play together

Let's Chop Cats!
09-25-2005, 04:04 PM
If there are enough people we could rent one for like a month and it'll only be like 2 bucks per a person. Or if someone has 20 bucks they're willing to spend for 1 month of a server we could do that.

I'd chip in, we should get a paypal account set up, either that or REINER is trying to scam us

>: D

Let's Chop Cats!
09-25-2005, 04:30 PM
Haha, nah I'd seriously try and set it all up. But I personally haven't setup a server but my friends have and I know most of the stuff they do for you anyway.

If I had $20 bucks lying around I'd rent a 10 man server for anyone on MX for a month, but I have about 2 to my name.

Turkish
09-25-2005, 04:45 PM
yeah, I'm broke too :(, but I have money coming to me pretty soon. I'd love to set on up to see the skills of all the MXicans

incubliss
09-25-2005, 04:56 PM
I don't actually have enough money for the order to go through. Going down to put £20 in my account tomorrow. Then hopefully it'll all be cleared for when the game gets activated.

When can I play it I live in Ireland, will that make a difference?

This game is amazing. Played for about an hour. It is available all over the globe already (assuming you already owned it).

I took 45 screenshots on 1 map. I'll upload a bunch in a minute or two, checkt he image thread.

How can I get it w/o buying the gold package?

Turkish
09-26-2005, 07:56 PM
alrighty, any find a good server to play on. Maybe we can find a server with a high max number of people but hardly any in it...then we can all join.

Let's Chop Cats!
09-26-2005, 08:43 PM
I just filter for the best ping and play there. I still think it would be cool if we all chipped in for a server for a month.
How can I get it w/o buying the gold package?
Buy it off Steam for 20 dollars, or wait till the CS:S/DOD:S/HL2:DM package hits stores (which will be roughly 40).

Turkish
09-26-2005, 11:12 PM
I can't play...keeps saying game is unavailable for me.

Oh man love this game. I love how with the KAR98 when you hit someone in the upper boddy they go flying. What do you guys think of not having a pistol on some guns?? i don't like it.

Turkish
09-26-2005, 11:16 PM
I don't either, but using the Garand is a lot easier.

09-27-2005, 03:56 AM
Oh....my...god!

DoD:S is so beautifully rendered. HDR lighting is a wonderful touch.

I average around 50 fps at 1280 res.

*hops back on for more*

I love it. Amazing job at remaking the game.

incubliss
09-27-2005, 09:06 AM
Oh man, I was up most of the night.

My name on the game is chrisT. My X-fire is incubliss if anyone wants to add me. My internet has just been upgraded to 2mb bband, might be able to play on servers globally now. What servers you guys playing on?

Turkish
09-27-2005, 12:55 PM
I sucks, because at home I have Tier-3 DSL, but I'm at college now, so I have crappy cable. Everyone here downloads mAdpr0n so during the afternoon I can barely surf the net and my ping is 2000+ when I try to play.


**** perverts.

More maaaaaps.

I can't wait until charlie, jagd, glider, and zalec are made into DoD:S

Oh god, Glider will be awesome.

incubliss
09-28-2005, 07:47 AM
Have new maps actually been announced, or are you just saying you want this to be made?

I REALLY want Saints, Falaise, and Valencia to be made, doubt they will tho.

Let's Chop Cats!
09-28-2005, 01:55 PM
There will be new maps eventually, just got to wait a bit. Lost Coast should be out soon aswell. Then Aftermath, my guess is sometime inbetween LC and AM which is around late Oct/Early Nov.

It's a tad weird playing flash with the Americans.

incubliss
09-28-2005, 07:05 PM
That's what I realised today too. I thought "hang on, need an Enfield here, or a Bren"

I can't wait to get the British in, see what the new Piat soundfile is like. For some reason, that was my favourite when the Axis said it. Also, when they said Grenade. Heheh

PEEHOT!

GERNADE!

I love how the gunshots in the background aren't ambient, they're actually being shot by some player.

incubliss
09-29-2005, 02:41 PM
PEEHOT! Hahah.

I just love the game full stop. I think i'd really like to see Caen made into a new map too, that would be cool.

Just imagine they actually have you coming in on moving boats for the first entry, that would be cooler than ice.

The hope on me is huge.

I've always loved the thrill you get when you're near the plans in Jagd. And then when you finally get them, there's the instant adrenaline rush.

hey i know day of defeat source just came out and i was wondering what is better about it? I'm guessing its not as laggy. also feel free to discuss it :)

Is there any way I can get this free? I have HL2 and it looks insane, but I can't pay for it.

Well how do you expect to get it if you can't pay for it?

I remember playing DoD on LANs with 5 buddies, just going crazy. Favourite moment was everyone playing as Machinegunners, tearing it up in Avalanche. :)

Definitely going to nab this version.

incubliss
10-02-2005, 06:59 PM
Hah that must've been ace.

I personally love playing 360. A game where you have to just do 360 jumps over certain gaps. It's a little better on CS:S as there's not so many huge gaps, but it's still fun.

Then when you get better, you can play 540 and 720.

Maybe even 900 :amaze:

How does this game compare to CoD, Bf1942,Wolfenstine ET, etc in terms of gameplay?
