Day of Defeat: Source

no microtransactions, no battle pass, skins, good old classic multiplayer FPS game. i miss the thousands of players and mods that used to exist :(

i suck ass at this game but i hope it gets the counter-strike treatment and gets a remake in source 2

an advanced version of day of defeat, so it MUST be good

Surprisingly the best WW2 Shooter i've ever played. (not that i've really have played any)

play the game on german servers for added realism!
(for the love of god they made me install "axis_santa" mods)

Would be better with official bot support...

good game i hope it gets an update one day

Woah! Adolf Hitler needs me? Okay, I'll do it. I'm going to bat for you, Hitler! I got your back, Hitler!

It's class. I feel like I'm back in 2005 again when the world seemed to be full of possibilities, rather than stress and responsibilities.

8/10

still relevant after all these years

Straightforward FPS game based on a solid engine. Still has several players even almost 20 years later.

This game is timeless. First installed in '10, and its my go to game as soon as I fire up the PC. Still has a decent community playing, with several servers that are full most of the time

this game is old but there's very active servers still this day. You can join a server at anytime

No German swastikas

Although the audience is small, it entertains. According to the new fps shooter players have very good players

Game is awesome and old school!

ur ol' grandfather simulator

great old game

Honestly one of the most fun WW2 games out there
Can we revive this game?

Fun old game some of the servers are kinda rude and aren't very player friendly though sometimes. I was in one server and hit a teammate by accident in spawn and they threatened to ban me on the spot. Otherwise love the game good to hop on and play for a few hours, or so in my spare time.

+1 worth the money catch it on sale if you really want to spend nothing for it.

I really missed this game. Finished a 5 year Fed prison term. Tonight was my first time playing again. I have 1520 hours total and now another 45 min. I have 99 steam games and Day of Defeat has always been my favorite. Great community of players. Good times. Wonder if I will see some new maps or game changes?

The arguably greatest Valve game to never get a sequel or the support it deserved. Quality video game.

crashes every 20 minutes wth

when it works, game is infested with nazi retards

Another game on Steam that i have way more hours in than it says. This game was the whole reason i installed Steam back in 2005, and it was my favorite WW2 shooter before Red Orchestra completely blew my mind.

this game is like css but ww2 and i LOVE IT. if you want ww2 fps games then this is your choice.... i guess

It is cool classic game about ww2 with interesting weapons and command team playing

very fun. everyone sounds like they have an xbox 360 mic

If you want to have a good time, this games for you.

Very accurate World War 2 simulator.

aint gonna lie.... this is the best video game ive ever played. from cod battlefield you name it... this is def the best one ever made. very addicting to play this one.
prob gonna play this till the day i die.

This game is so fun and has some great game play / game feel. I hope valve makes a new one like they did with counter strike. The only problem is that most of the servers are dead.

10/10 can run potato computers!

I believe that the mpapng w sa tnot as accurtea in the eicitnoihfe otgh eBAR class ohewfver amazing acolusatic and diefinltely guyg if you are good at fops :)

Lagi-lagi game clone call of duty day of defeat memang dulu gw belum kenal ini game cuma kenalnya counter strike aja. Gameplaynya sama aja DOD classic mode-modenya cuma 2 dikit aja nih terus kalo sudah masuk gamenya kita bisa pilih tim karya US Dan Nazi. Dan Classes nih ada cuma 6 aja tiap classes nih ada beda-beda juga kita pilih senjatanya. Day of defeat source nih bagus lah gamenya walaupun ini game masih aktif juga tahun ini.

8/10

ping limit on server : 200
my ping : 209
this games fucking circumcised me

Become anti-matter prone machine, killfeed flood

This game is pretty fun, but from the lack of support from Valve is truly saddening. Hey! Maybe when WWII games start to re-emerge more and more, Day of Defeat could make a comeback with a new title or just official support from Valve.

It's pretty good, definitely an underrated game for sure that more people need to experience. If you like tactical shooters and Valve games, you'll like this one. The only thing I don't like is that you can't play with bots without modding the game.

svinbra!

Day of Defeat: Source Review
Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5)

Overview: Day of Defeat: Source, released in 2005 by Valve, is a team-based multiplayer first-person shooter set during World War II. It is a remake of the original Day of Defeat, leveraging the Source engine to enhance graphics and gameplay. The game emphasizes teamwork and strategy, allowing players to engage in intense battles across various iconic locations from the war.

Gameplay
Class-Based System: Players choose from several classes, each with unique weapons and roles, such as Rifleman, Sniper, and Machine Gunner. This class diversity encourages teamwork, as players must cooperate to utilize their strengths effectively. The balance between classes adds depth to gameplay and promotes strategic thinking.

Map Design and Objectives: Maps are well-crafted, featuring a mix of open areas and tight quarters, designed to facilitate both close-quarters combat and long-range engagements. Objective-based gameplay enhances the experience, as teams must work together to capture points or eliminate the opposing side. The attention to historical detail in map design immerses players in the setting.

Weapon Mechanics: Day of Defeat: Source offers a wide range of authentic WWII-era weapons, each with its own handling and recoil characteristics. The shooting mechanics feel satisfying, with weighty feedback on shots fired. However, some players may find the weapon balance slightly skewed, leading to discussions about class effectiveness.

Graphics and Performance
Visual Fidelity: Utilizing the Source engine, the game features significantly improved graphics compared to its predecessor. Detailed environments, realistic animations, and enhanced lighting contribute to an immersive experience. While it may not compete with the latest titles, it remains visually appealing, especially for a game of its era.

Performance: The game generally runs smoothly on a variety of systems. Thanks to its optimization, players can expect stable frame rates, making it accessible even on older hardware.

Sound and Audio
The audio design is a highlight, with immersive sound effects that bring the battlefield to life. Gunfire, explosions, and ambient sounds create a realistic atmosphere. The voice lines for in-game communication add personality to the characters and enhance the teamwork aspect of gameplay.

Community and Support
Player Base: While the game has a dedicated community, its player base has fluctuated over the years. Players can still find servers to join, but the numbers are not as robust as during the peak years.

Modding Potential: Day of Defeat: Source benefits from the modding capabilities of the Source engine. The community has created custom maps and mods, adding to the game’s longevity and variety.

Conclusion
Final Thoughts: Day of Defeat: Source successfully revitalizes the classic Day of Defeat formula, offering an engaging and strategic multiplayer experience. Its emphasis on teamwork, authentic weapons, and immersive environments make it a worthy entry in the WWII shooter genre.

Overall Recommendation: For fans of team-based shooters and WWII settings, Day of Defeat: Source is a must-play. It combines historical authenticity with engaging gameplay, providing hours of tactical enjoyment.

one of the best ww2 shooters i have ever played.
gameplay is amazing and you have to buy it

Valves forgotten IP that desserves a remake on the Source 2 Engine

One of the classic Valve games in the Source Engine. Everyone says the game is dead but I found plenty of lobbies still around with both new players and absolute veterans. The shooting feels good and the movement and weapon variety is about what you expect from a shooter of this era and genre. I'm not even a big WWII guy and found myself having fun with it. Besides, any game where you get to shoot Nazis is a already a great time! >:)

quite underrated game
sadly the only people who play it are essentially grandpas and grandmas but like
its still VERY FUN and i recommend trying it (rockets are so fun!!!)

This game is perfect if you don't have a graphics card and want to play fps. Other games seem clunky.

I have played this game for years. My play time is much longer than this account. It still has a dedicated player base so you are always going to find a game
